Upgrading 1.2 - 1.3

I thought I was being very clever by only downloading packages I was actually going to install. Is it true that dselect can't handle missing files even if they're not needed?

Re: why does make-kpkg put vmlinux and vmlinuz in package?
From: Michael Alan Dorman [EMAIL PROTECTED] It would be interesting to see if there was a way one could use the compressed image for that, though. Surprise! We don't need psdatabase any longer. From the ps man page: WCHAN Name (if a valid kernel symbol table can be found) or address of the kernel wait channel the process is sleeping in. For the kernel symbol table libproc scans the following files: $PS_SYSTEM_MAP /boot/System.map-`uname -r` /boot/System.map /lib/modules/`uname -r`/System.map /etc/psdatabase /boot/psdatabase-`uname -r` /boot/psdatabase, /lib/modules/`uname -r`/psdatabase So usually you don't have to use psupdate if you install the map link file from the kernel. So, we can flush the uncompressed kernel and the psdatabase generation from kernel-package.

Re: Tape backup
I am using an iomega jaz removable disk cartridge for backup. I got the scsi internal version for $299 with one disk. The disks aren't cheap: $100 for 1GB, but they are fast and much more convenient than tape and useful for much more than backup. Compare them to $40 for a travan cartrige and there doesn't seem to be much reason to use tape any longer unless you are going to DAT or 8mm with their multi-gigabyte capacity. I've been testing Debian installs by installing the entire system on the jaz cartrige. I also use them for sneakernet to carry 1GB from work to home and back.

Re: dnload using telnet ?
I saw several no answers. But it really depends on your telnet CLIENT. When at work I use a telnet client under windows 95 that supports file RECEIVE with XMODEM, YMODEM, YMODEM-G, ZMODEM, and KERMIT. It won't transmit files back though. What's nice, is that it supports auto zmodem. I just use the command 'sz filename' in the terminal and it starts sending. This client sees the ZMODEM signature and starts receiving.

3c905 problems with 1.3 (and 1.2.5)
Hi, I've got a brand new Pentium II from Gateway 2000, and the 3Com 905 ethernet card is not behaving. I first tried to install Debian 1.3 with the floppies I'd made on a net-connected machine. That went okay, but then it couldn't see the network, so I couldn't do the rest of the install. So I used a CD with Debian 1.2.5 on it to install a minimal system, and it still couldn't see the network. So I got the latest 3c59x driver from Donald Becker's ftp site (which is at ftp://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/linux/drivers/vortex.html) and built a new kernel (2.0.27) with that. This worked, so I installed the 1.3 packages over the 1.2.5, compiled a 2.0.30 kernel (with the updated driver), and then the network went away again with the reboot. I've fiddled with PnP settings in the BIOS, checked IRQs and I/O addresses, compiled the driver as a module and, nothing helps. There are no messages on the logs indicating a problem, and ifconfig reports that the card is up -- but nothing gets through. So, I figured I'd go back to the 1.2.5 setup which had worked. This I did, and it worked -- until I rebooted. So it seems I can get the ethernet card to work once, right after installing 1.2.5 and compiling a new kernel with the latest boomerang (3c90x) driver. After that, the card won't talk. I can't figure out why... If anyone has any tips or can help in any other way, I'd greatly appreciate it.

routing question
Hi there, I'm in the process of setting up a 486 sx/25 as a dialup router (with one modem and one network card). Unfortunately, the ISP can't seem to get the external routing right yet, so my testing is being held up. The question is this: I've compiled a lean, mean kernel with the appropriate IP forwarding enabled (no firewalling or masquerading is being used). Will it route by default, or do I need to add a specific package or other external software? Here's the output of route: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric RefUse Iface cs10.mil.ptd.ne *255.255.255.255 UH0 02 ppp0 cs10.mil.ptd.ne *255.255.255.255 UH1 00 sl0 204.186.230.0 *255.255.255.0 U 0 0 35 eth0 127.0.0.0 *255.0.0.0 U 0 0 18 lo default *0.0.0.0 U 0 0 87 ppp0 default *0.0.0.0 U 1 0 15 sl0 The modem is 204.186.27.145 (cs10-01.mil.ptd.net).

The first address is given to the network card in the Linux dialup router, and the second address is assigned to an NT server on the network, so once the external router to the ISP recognizes the route, pinging 204.186.230.2 is a good test. _Any_ advice would certainly be helpful!

Running boa using inetd
Hi, following the recent thread about dwww, I decided to try it out. I installed boa as a web server but was trying as someone suggested in that thread, to run it through inetd. The idea is that I want to disallow all non-local connections to the http server. Unfortunately I have deleted those messages and don't remeber if there contained any details on how to do this. The mailing list archives do not contain them yet either. So the question is, how do I get this to work. Boa complains that there is some other process listening to the port and exits with an error. Alternatively is there some other way of having a small server that can only be accesed from the local host or may be a small selected list of hosts?

Re: Easy way to switch from RedHat to Debian?
There is no real easy way. However, if you have enough disk space, you can make a new partition, or use an old one, install debian on it, and migrate all your config date to the debian side.

The only thing I can think is to try using mt seek to bytes past the end of the tape, but I'd be surprised if the drive lets you. It wouldn't let me - I found an easier solution.

Re: text mode 3270 emulator?
There's 'tn3270', but it's not packaged for Debian. I looked at it a while ago but it required the NetKit source to compile... [...] I have it working now... There is the tn3270-510.tar.gz package at sunsite with an a.out tn3270 binary that works when termcap-compat is installed. I managed to get it compiled with libc5/ncurses using Debian 1.3. It is nothing more than a gross hack, but it works for me. If anyone would like the binary or hacked sources, please let me know. I'll consider packaging it if there is enough demand.

Re: xemacs and tex
Hello! :) On Fri, 13 Jun 1997 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I recently updated to 1.3 latex was replaced by Tetex distribution and xemacs became 19.14.1. I have the problem that the tex-modes.el lisp file is now aged of years, and do not recognize the latex2e format and display no menu on the menu bar. Do you know if there is an adaptation of the equivalemt emacs file (which do not work with xemacs) that is more recent? Or must I try to adapt it ? Is XEmacs 19.15 in Debian 1.3? I am using the unstable distribution and it comes with XEmacs 19.15. AUC TeX is included with 19.15, but I am not sure about 19.14. Try the command locate auctex and see if you find the AUCTeX files with XEmacs. I found a bunch of them in '/usr/lib/xemacs-19.15/lisp/auctex'. However, I had the same problem as yours when I first used XEmacs. For some reason, it loaded the old TeX mode by default. I had to add the '50tex-site.el' file in '/etc/xemacs/site-start-19.d' to make it load AUC TeX by default. Try the following: # cd /usr/xemacs/site-start-19.d # ln -s /usr/lib/xemacs-19.15/lisp/auctex/tex-site.el 50tex-site.el (Of course, in your case, you would probably use '/usr/lib/xemacs-19.14/lisp/auctex/tex-site.el' instead. :) Since I know little about Emacs, it took me a while to figure out how to do it. It wasn't until I found the file '/etc/emacs/site-start.d/50tex-site.el' from GNU Emacs that I found out I could do the same with XEmacs to make AUC TeX work in XEmacs also. :) If you have any hint on what to do or who to ask I would be very pleased. thank you and sorry for disturbing with perhaps trivial questions.

Re: SMAIL/smarthost/BIND error
Just something to try... post.metrolink.net does not have a dns MX record. I don't think smail should give you an error if your smarthost doesn't have an MX record but it might. Try changing you smarthost to metrolink.net (it resolves to post.metrolink.net) and see if it helps. I assume your name resolution is working just fine (you can ping post.metrolink.net from your linux box. If not, get that working first (start at your /etc/resolv.conf).
