Hola

El 08 Apr 2000 a las 02:02PM +0200, Antonio Beamud Montero escribio:
  Estoy intentando configurar un servidor para que solo permita acceso
  a internet a un subgrupo de ordenadores, el problema es que no estan
  en subredes, sino que serian las máquinas de la 192.168.0.100 a la
  192.168.0.116, para ello lo tendre que hacer con ip-chains ¿no?, y
  supongo que para cada una de las máquinas, o hay alguna manera de dar
  un rango de direcciones?, por más que he mirado no encuentro nada de
  eso, o tendria mejor que dividir la red en subredes tipo 192.168.1.x
  192.168.2.x, etc. 

Me temo que tendrás que hacerlo máquina a máquina. Igual un script que
establezca el permiso para un equipo y le llames sucesivas veces para cada
una de las IPs que te hagan falta.

  El router ademas de ip-masq tiene un proxy (squid), ¿con las reglas
  que establezca con ip-chains me vale para el proxy o tengo que
  restringir también en le proxy?... He leido que se puede hacer el
  proxy transparente, redireccionando al puerto del proxy las
  conexiones http... ¿Alguien lo ha probado?

Efectivamente, si los clientes configuran su navegador para usar como
proxy tu servidor, si no quieres que usen el squid, tendrás que tener
tambien filtrado para los paquetes que tengan como destino determinado
puerto (el de squid) y como ip la del servidor.

Por otra parte, si el proxy no tiene conexión permanente y usas diald para
establecerla, en diald puedes definir exactamente desde qué equipos
habilitas hacer marcado para conectar al exterior (accept) y desde cuales
mantienes el enlace activo o ignoras los paquetes (solo a efectos de
controlar el tiempo del enlace levantado).

  Perdón por tanta pregunta. 

¿Como que perdón? Para eso está la lista ¿no?

Saludos.

  Sí, init=/path/to/init,  pero tu problema es  otro. Había una

   change_root: old root has d_count=1
   Trying to umount old root ... okay
 
  Si no me equivoco, el nucleo está montando una partición, luego
  monta otra  y desmonta  la primera. Como  resultado, queda  con una
  partición NTFS como root donde evidentemente no hay ni /dev/console
  ni /sbin/init ni nada de nada.
 
  La solución rápida  es poner un núcleo sin soporte  NTFS o como
  módulo, que supongo que no es lo que quieres.
 

Pero porque hace eso. Se trata del disco de rescate resc1440.bin 
de la Debian 2.1  Se supone que debería montar el ramdisk y luego 
cargar el sistema de ficheros ROOT.bin en el ramdisk no ?

Si elimino el soporte para NTFS me ocurre otra cosa distinta.

  RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0
  VFS: Mounted root (minix filesystem).
  Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:01

  No se a que corresponde 03:01 pero parece que no quiere

Podrias comenzar por los siguientes(creo que el orden es el correcto):
Networking overview - HOWTO.
Ethernet - HOWTO.
Intranet-Server - HOWTO.

Si necesitas mas detalles acerca de un punto específico, puedes
consultar los mini-HOWTO'S que comienzan por IP - , el NIS y NFS. Bien,

Todos estos documentos se incluyen con Debian.

 De todas formas no parece que pase nada raro por esto, pero molestan

El kernel busca el System.map primero en el directorio /boot, donde
seguramente tendrás aún el antiguo, copia el que tienes en /usr/src a
/boot y se debería solucionar.

El domingo 09 de abril de 2000 a la(s) 10:08:00 +0200, Antonio Castro contaba:

Pero porque hace eso. Se trata del disco de rescate resc1440.bin 
de la Debian 2.1  Se supone que deber?a montar el ramdisk y luego

 El núcleo que viene con el  disco de rescate hace eso (supongo,
 ya que  nunca lo vi  funcionar :^)) pero el  que compilas tú  no lo
 hace por alguna razón.


Si elimino el soporte para NTFS me ocurre otra cosa distinta.

  RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0

  Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:01

  No se a que corresponde 03:01 pero parece que no quiere
  montar la partici?n raiz en el ramdisk.

 03:01  son los  major y  minor  numbers de  /dev/hda1. Son  los
 mismos valores que salen en un  'ls -l' y aparecen detallados en el
 devices.txt que supongo que ya conocerás.

$ ls -l /dev/hda1
brw---1 root disk   3,   1 abr  4  1999 /dev/hda1

 La razón  por la  que el núcleo  intenta montar  /dev/hda1 como
 root (incluso ya  teniendo una partición root montada)  es algo que
 desconozco, pero es la causa del problema.

 ¿Se puede  acceder de  alguna forma  al .config  con el  que se
 compiló el núcleo que va incluido en el disco de rescate?

 USING DEBIAN

 tried:
 ~# ifconfig lo 127.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0
 ~# route add 127.0.0.0 lo
 ~# route add 127.0.0.0 netmak 255.0.0.0 lo

 i just want to update my route table

 so i get:

 Destgatewaygenmaskiface
 127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 lo

 255.255.255.255  (not what i
want!)

 the best i can get is w/ a 255.255.255.255 submask
 how do i adjust the submask so i get 255.0.0.0 not 255.255.255.255?

 sorry about so many replies, but it should be simple

Sound problem after upgrading to woody

2000-04-09 Thread Jeronimo Pellegrini

Hello,

  I was using potato with some woody packages (a lot of woody
  packages, actually), and decided to dist-upgrade. Everything went
  fine, but when I started X again, I had a sound problem:

  Sounds seem to have been truncated (they won't play for more than
  one second). Mostly gnome and enlightenment event sounds...

  What could have happened?

  Thank you,

J.

I got IceWM and Gnome to play together nicely, after a lot of waiting and
updating...  one thing that bugs me is that it keeps creating windows at the
0,0 coordinate, right on top of my panel.  Any ideas how to make smart

Alternative to dselect?

2000-04-09 Thread Jeronimo Pellegrini

Hello...

  I've been following the thread on dselect, and... I'm pretty much
  new to Debian, so I don't feel yet comfortable suggesting...

  Anyway - for those who find dselect to be non-intuitive: did you try
  console-apt? I don't know if there are any problems with it, but...

  - It has a nice help screen (that I found to be much more helpful
  - thatn dselect's - although that's just an opinion);
  - If you hit tab on a package, you see all its dependencies;
  - It lets you go back to the previous state with a keystroke;
  - You may choose the order in which packages are shown;
  - Package status is shown using colors;
  - It shows progress in a very nice way, and lets you play a
ascii-based tetris-like game while you wait.

Well... that's it.
I just installed it, and found it to be really nice.

Re: Need parameters for lance ethernet on install

 and use the twisted pair connection instead of the

 card for eth0.  I also tried 5,0x300,eth0 in case
 the installed
 didn't need the rest.
 
 I see myself as having three options:


Dear Josh,
I, myself, had this same sort of problem with an
install on an Intergraph TD-3 90Mhz system. It comes
w/ an onboard AMD lance chip w/ TPO . It was not
pretty..
But I love the box, so when doing a fresh install
(caused by a blitzed upgrade from slink to potato), I
would bang my head into the same wall. It was puzzling
too.According to a Doc I read, the lance is
supposed to be one of the best supported chips for
Debian.
The resolution was this...
I first (after drivers had been loaded), used the
Alt+F2 method to get a term while installing and used
the 'insmod' and 'modprobe' to try to address the card
from outside the install, but this would give me 
Device or resource busy when returning to the
install if I could load the chip.
If I remember correctly, When I got to the parameter
line entry part of the install for that chip I
entered:
0x340,5,5,0
: and that seemded to work (finally) after puzzling
those values from motherboard jumpers documentation
and the software BIOS utility. The AMD supplied DOS
diagnostic refused to see the chip. Those values I
used at the term as I said above until I could find
the correct sytax the command wanted. Then went back
to the install and tried them until I could get it to
recognize the card. The hanging during the installs
modprobe could be cured by doing Ctrl+C (or maybe Z)
w/o killing the entire install and even though the
install term was hanging I could Alt+F2 (F3,F4,etc.)
to try different values and then go back to the
install modprobe, kill it, and try the newly
discovered syntax until it worked.
Setting up eth0 was a breeze w/ SLINK [2.0.36](or
maybe beginners luck was responsible) but I got it
to install the 1st time after I supplied parameters.
The fresh install of POTATO [2.2.14] was a B*TCH! But
well worth it though. 
My advice comes from those experiences w/ ONE chip/
card, so take them for what they may be worth
concerning a HAMM install w/ 3. I would suggest that
you start w/ A card and then add the others after
install (an interesting procedure I hear from the
lists, but not impossible w/ the correct info)but
this, again, is IMO.
I hope it helps you.

Networking weirdness

2000-04-09 Thread Guyren G Howe
Trying to network my Debian 2.2/Corel Linux box to my [EMAIL PROTECTED] cable 
modem.
Failing.

No trouble getting my Mac and my Windows box to talk to the modem, but the
same settings fail on my Linux box.

The thing is, I'm pretty sure everything is set right on my Linux box. Apart
from them all being the same as the settings on my other computers, I can
turn the activity light in my modem on by trying to ping the gateway.

Furthermore, I'm reasonably confident about my understanding of how to set
up networking in Linux, because I can get Linux talking to my other two
computers just fine, including setting up Windows 98 as my NAT service
(shudder!) for Linux.

On top of all that, the cable modem has a 10.x.x.x address, and I have no
trouble pinging it, and I can set up Windows 98 as the gateway just fine.

So here's the question: what could my Linux box possibly be doing so that it
can talk to my PC, my Mac, my cable modem, my PC as its gateway, but not
ATT's cable modem gateway? I'm pretty sure that it's something about how
Linux is trying to talk to the gateway.

An alternative question that might help is: I understand how to use route
and ifconfig to set this stuff up, but what sort of IP diagnostics are
available to me to work out what's wrong?

Are you using imapd/ipopd from the upstream pine distribution or the

imapd and ipopd is based on the c-client library.  The mbox driver in
c-client uses $HOME/mbox by default.  You will have to recompile it to use
$HOME/mail/mbox.

The debian libc-client4.7 package has instructions for doing so in

Look into the equivs package. Or, dive into the docs and see how to make
a [empty] package (you really only need 4 or 5 files and a few
directories...)

 An option to reset the selection status of all packages to their actual
 status

As you know, dselect displays three status fields to the left of the
package name. 'R' (that's an uppercase R) will reset the selection
status to that of the middle indicator. By pressing 'ooO' (or some
number of upper and lowercase o's), you can get the package listing
sorted by only status (the leftmost indicator). Using '+' on the
Installed packages line, '-' on the Removed packages line, and '_'
on the Purged packages line will reset everything to the state of the
leftmost indicator (modulo any conflicts, deal with them appropriately).

When i installed debian slink last week all i did was select the
preselected packages for a normal computer with gcc, X and those things.
What is so hard about that?
And when i wanted to install  something.. like aumix, i just ran apt-get
install aumix  from the cdrom.
I do not realy see the hardness in those things..

For a beginner who do not know a bit on unix programs.. those
preselected things are probably the best thing.

Go ahead and ask a windows geek if he/she would prefer windowmaker or
afterstep..   you wont get a good answere :)

So, as a pretty normal beginner on linux, i would say that it's not that
hard to install debian, the information is just a bit badly written
(slink).
I did not see that preselected things after a few tries :)

  sort of. usually that's done with procmail. but you could probably use

 Ahh, this I don't quite understand.  I always donwloaded my mail from a
 POP3 server, and then had Netscape sort it into various inboxes.
 
 I thought, that I would now use fetchmail to get my mail from the POP3
 server (actually from more than one) and have it all appended to my
 mailbox in /var/spool/mail and the MUA would then process it
 appropriatly.  So where does procmail come into the game?

either your MTA calls it to do local mail delivery after fetchmail
hands off its messages to it, or fetchmail can run it directly with,
IIRC, the mda option. I think debian may use procmail automatically
for at least some MTAs, so you could try just creating a .procmailrc
to see if it works. Otherwise you can use a .forward which pushes
things through procmail...

I'm no procmail expert, though.

Install exim for an mta

fetchmail gets mail, hands it to exim.
exim checks for a ~/.procmailrc file and if it exists, hands mail to procmail

Thing is there is an unneeded step in there.  Exim doesn't need a delivery

 Have you ever run Forte on Debian systems? I have looked at it on Sun's

Hi Oki,

I've tried Forte on a Celeron 450 with 128MB using Sun's
JDK 1.2.2 and it is slooow. 

On WinXX it is much better, still a bit slow, but you can
work comfortably.

If you must use a Java IDE in Linux, may I suggest JBuilder.
It's a bit faster than Forte.

I'm making my first attempt at running electronic mail.  I have exim,

I don't know exactly what this means but it seems to me that somehow mutt or
exim is sending out the host name of my computer and the mail is rejected by
my isp.  I've looked through the /etc/exim.conf file (I used the default
example file) and the .muttrc file and don't see how this all works.  How
can I get around this problem?  How can I change the sender domain and have
it be valid?

 Why don't you debianize the package or create a fake one that provides the

  A package state that tells the package managers that the functionality of
  this package is provided locally, treat it as if it was installed
 
 Look into the equivs package. Or, dive into the docs and see how to make
 a [empty] package (you really only need 4 or 5 files and a few
 directories...)

Ok, gonna try...

  An option to reset the selection status of all packages to their actual
  status
 
 As you know, dselect displays three status fields to the left of the
 package name.

Yep

 'R' (that's an uppercase R) will reset the selection
 status to that of the middle indicator.

I wasn't clear on as to what exactly it resets to - thanks!

 By pressing 'ooO' (or some
 number of upper and lowercase o's), you can get the package listing
 sorted by only status (the leftmost indicator). Using '+' on the
 Installed packages line, '-' on the Removed packages line, and '_'
 on the Purged packages line will reset everything to the state of the
 leftmost indicator (modulo any conflicts, deal with them appropriately).

Should do. Thank you very much.

(Still a bit ... tedious, though)

how do I upgrade Netscape to 128 bit version

The Debian packages currently available to install Netscape 4.72 contain

How can I replace the netscape that is installed by these packages with
the 128bit strong encryption one?

Broke sound when upgrading a number of packages

2000-04-09 Thread Rupe
Hi,

I was upgrading a number of packages the other day and broke my sound
installation.  As I upgraded a number of things at once, I am not
exactly sure which one broke my sound config.

I suspect it was Enlightenment Sound Daemon, as that was the only sound
related package.  Uninstalling this package did not help.

I have an Creative AWE 64 Soundblaster card.  I am using the 2.2.12
kernal, and have compiled sound as a module.  (I recompiled the modules
and recreated the device files already - didn't help)

When I look at dmesg, it is complaining that the parameters for my sound
card are not set when the module is loaded
snip
Soundblaster audio driver Copyright (C) by Hannu Savolainen 1993-1996
sb_card: I/O, IRQ, and DMA are mandatory
snip

These are set in my kernel config, and it used to work.

Does anyone know what is happening here, or where I can put those
parameters to fix the problem?  Can I pass them as parameters to the
module when it is loaded somehow?

TIA
Rupert

If you update the packages list halfway through the process, no problem. 
Dselect/apt

halfway

You can do it by installing the fortify packages listed below. Fortify
will modify the existing binary to add the 128 bit encryption. They are
in the non-us distribution:

fortify 1.4.6-0.1   
fortify-linux-x86   1.4.6-0.1  

If you use apt-get, you can add a line like below to
/etc/apt/sources.list, and then run 'apt-get update', and then 'apt-get
install fortify fortify-linux-x86' to install the packages. From there
read the fortify documentation...the procedure is straight forward.

I thought the installer was *just* an installer used to install the
binary you obtain from Netscape.  You need to obtain the binary that
is *not* for export, that is the 128bit strong encryption version.

There is another way to do this, and this is how I did it.
I obtained Fortify and installed it, and that made my 40bit
encrypted version into a 128bit.

apache_1.3.9-12_i386.deb

2000-04-09 Thread Marek Andricik
Hello,

I have the problem with the apache_1.3.9-12_i386.deb package. Before the latest
upgrade I did not experienced the problem. I have .cgi programs in directories
which are directly there or symlinked. 

After upgrade .cgi programs stopped working. In the error logfile there is this
error message. 

[Sun Apr  9 18:16:43 2000] [error] [client 194.145.136.134] Premature end of scr
ipt headers: /home/andricik/public_html/works/test.cgi
^
When I put test.cgi in /var/www or directly in public_html it is OK. Even
in subdirectory it's OK. But if test.cgi is in the directory symlinked
(like the works directory above) it fails. 

When I renamed public_html to Html (which I used to use for years without
any problems) it does not work at all, does not matter if the directory is
symlinked or not. 

Downgrading to apache_1.3.9-10_i386.deb. helped. I don't know if -11 has
also the same problem. Any idea?

(I had a look: In /etc/resolv.conf the entry 192.168.1.1 is indeed gone
...)

BTW, it looks like the ppp-dialin is a little bit unstable. I generally
have to dial twice or even three times to establish a line. Sometimes
the dialing does not work. Sometimes there seems to be a negociation
problem and the line is shutdown after some send/receive flickering of
the LEDs. What might be the problem? What do the EchoReq and EchoRep in
/var/log/debug mean?

I guess you should use cgi-bin to store al your cgi's, you can set which
one to use in /etc/apache/some kind of file

 Hello,
 
 I have the problem with the apache_1.3.9-12_i386.deb package. Before the 
 latest
 upgrade I did not experienced the problem. I have .cgi programs in directories
 which are directly there or symlinked. 
 
 After upgrade .cgi programs stopped working. In the error logfile there is 
 this
 error message.

 When I put test.cgi in /var/www or directly in public_html it is OK. Even
 in subdirectory it's OK. But if test.cgi is in the directory symlinked
 (like the works directory above) it fails. 
 
 When I renamed public_html to Html (which I used to use for years without
 any problems) it does not work at all, does not matter if the directory is
 symlinked or not. 
 
 Downgrading to apache_1.3.9-10_i386.deb. helped. I don't know if -11 has
 also the same problem. Any idea?

  Why don't you debianize the package or create a fake one that provides the

 Ah, I should have known there is a proper way to do this. This had briefly
 occured to me, but I've never ever created a package... any pointers besides
 www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/packaging.html ? Something more in HOWTO
 style, perhaps?

AFAIK there are 2 packages that can help you to
create debs: dh-make and debmake. For dh-make there is a tutorial at
www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide. For debmake you can read the docs in
/usr/doc/debmake.
 
 However, these are developers' solutions - don't you think this should be
 possible on the user level?

But how do we define user level ? If you had installed the system and you
are managing it, then you aren't a simple user anymore.
Besides, creating a package is not so hard as it seems.

 Or is there a script just to create such fakes? Have I just RT wrong FMs?

The  equivs package can help you to create these provides-only
packages.


Re: sending mail / exim problems

 I'm making my first attempt at running electronic mail.  I have exim,
 fetchmail and mutt installed.  Right now I'm attempting to send mail.  From

That is correct.

 Anyway when I try to send mail to my local isp this is some of the error
 messages I get in /var/log/exim/mainlog:
error messages snipped
 I don't know exactly what this means but it seems to me that somehow mutt or
 exim is sending out the host name of my computer and the mail is rejected by
 my isp.  I've looked through the /etc/exim.conf file (I used the default
 example file) and the .muttrc file and don't see how this all works.  How
 can I get around this problem?  How can I change the sender domain and have
 it be valid?

It is indeed a header problem.  Your system hasn't yet been told
how to rewrite the message headers to match what your ISP wants
to see.  This is done in your /etc/exim.conf file.  The section that
controls header rewrite is at the very end of the sample file.
Here's that portion from my /etc/exim.conf:

##
#  REWRITE CONFIGURATION #
##
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] bcfrF
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] bcfrF

# End of file

The username on my box here is mike  And reznaeous is my username
at Earthlink.  So the two lines here rewrite the message headers
to reflect that.  The 'bcfrF' at the end of each line controls which
header lines to rewrite - in this case it's pretty much *all* of
the header that gets rewritten.

And that should get you at least on track.  If you need any further
explanation, let me know and I'll see what I can do.

you must have any like this:

in your /etc/services and 

swatstream  tcp nowait.400  root/usr/sbin/swat swat

in your /etc/inetd.conf

and type:

man swat works fine for additional information :-)

running shell in emacs

2000-04-09 Thread sgaerner
Hi,

I've got a problem with emacs. When I run M-x shell all escape characters for
setting colors in ls are expanded. That looks a little strange...
I'm running potato and emacs 20, my shell is bash.

Does anyone have an idea how to solve this?

Thanks.

2nd REQUEST: slink and /usr/share/man/

2000-04-09 Thread Pann McCuaig
I recently went to look something up and found my dpkg man pages had
gone missing. A brief search found them under /usr/share/man/.

I have dpkg 1.4.1.18.99.slink.0 which I got from

deb http://www.debian.org/~vincent/ slink-update main

There are other packages I've obtained from unofficial sites that have
deposited their man pages under the /usr/share/man/ tree.

I assume this is because they were converted from potato to slink, and
that man pages in potato have moved from /usr/man/ to /usr/share/man/.

What I need to know is: is there a proper way to tell man to look for
man pages in /usr/share/man/ _in addition_ to the places it normally
looks?

My RTFM-ing would seem to indicate that /etc/manpath.config is the
proper place. The MANDATORY_MANPATH mapping is obvious, but I'm
concerned about the MANPATH_MAP mapping. There are no many-to-one
mappings in the current file. Is it proper to have both the following
lines?

MANPATH_MAP /usr/bin/usr/man
MANPATH_MAP /usr/bin/usr/share/man

And what to do about /var/catman/ ?

Thanks,
 Pann

Most people do not put functions on a .h file. That is where headers go
(function and global declerations).

If you want to do this right, put those functions either in the main.c, or
even better:

move them all to it's own .c file, and make the .h only contain function
declerations of those functions, then compile like so:

gcc -g -c main.c -o main.o
gcc -g -c util.c -o util.o
gcc main.o util.o -o myprogram

Then you can debug the program (-g ensures debugging code is included as
you probably already know). You can set the break point by line number in
util.c.

fetchmail / s10/10.0.2.15

2000-04-09 Thread ktb
I just tried using fetchmail in the 'check'  mode fetchmail -c
mail.inebraska.com and got the following error:

skipping poll of mail.inebraska.com, s10/10.0.2.15 down

I'm using the example ~/.fetchmailrc file.  Within that file there is an
entry:

defaults
interface s10/10.0.2.15  #SLIRP Standard Address

I don't know what these numbers refer to.  Do I need to change these
numbers?  I can't find any numbers similar to these in my isp documentation.
What I can gather from the net SLIRP is a TCP/IP emulator which turns a
shell account into a (C)SLIP/PPP account via modem.  I'm not sure what to
do with this.
Thanks,
