Re: DNS vs Sendmail/Exim
Hola, en el named.conf borra la alusión al fichero root : zone . { type hint; file db.root; }; si las zonas no quieres que se prodigan hasta el secundario (si no tienes dns secundario) añade la línea notify no; en cada definición del named.conf zone midominio.com{ type master; notify no; file db.midominio.com; }; con esto consigues tener un bind funcionando perfectamente para sólo entorno intranet salutti, teixi.

Re: version de stty en 2.1r4 y documentacion del mismo
Hola Me temo que hay una desincronizacion de la documentacion y el binario de stty en la Debian 2.1r4. La version de stty incluida es la 1.16, y en la documentacion del mismo (info, ya que la pagina man dice que esta desactualizada y que la buena es la del info) indica que se puede usar la opcion -F o --file para indicar sobre que terminal se esta operando, sin embargo, parece que no hace caso usando /dev/ttyS0 y 1 con esta opcion. Mirando el Serial-HOWTO, indica que para las versiones superiores a 1.17 de stty se puede usar esa opcion, pero en las anteriores debe usarse la redireccion del puerto /dev/ttyS0 para configurarlo. Sin embargo, el 1.16 no se queja de la opcion -F o --file y con --help indica que se pueden usar, aunque no hace caso, mientras que usando el metodo de la redireccion si que funciona. ¿Puede ser un bug? ¿Alguien sabe como esta en 2.1r5 o en potato?

Once I press the pause button on XMMS, dhcpcd immediately starts intefacing with my ethernet card. Apparently dhcpcd freezes up after dhcpcd[4140]: broadcasting DHCP_DISCOVER and only displays dhcpcd[4140]: broadcastAddr option is missing in DHCP server response. Assuming 202.166.111.255 after pausing XMMS. This does not happen when I'm playing directly to the sound card without going through esd, so it can't be an IRQ conflict between the ethernet card and the sound card. Changing the port esd uses doesn't help either. My guess is that somehow esd is blocking dhcpcd from calling some network function or something along that line. I don't know enough about either program to find out the answer, though. I'm running woody, with the latest versions of esd and dhcpcd. -- +--+ | Destrius dest rius @ big foot.com | | http://web.hjc.edu.sg/~8223332f/ ++ +| He walks away, | | Remove spaces in email address | Leaving nothing| +| But a notion of his music. | ++ -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null
REPOST: ypserv consumes giant amounts of memory???
COme on guys, isn't there anyone who can help me with this? I sort of feel like an idiot that I can't setup a simple NIS server... :-( ==BEGIN FORWARDED MESSAGE== From: Ralf G. R. Bergs [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Debian GNU/Linux User Mailing List debian-user@lists.debian.org Date: Sun, 18 Jun 2000 21:00:07 +0200 Subject: ypserv consumes giant amounts of memory??? Hi there, I'm running frozen, previously with kernel ver 2.3.99pre-7 and now 2.4test-1. Since I installed a NIS master server a few days ago my system often comes to a crawl by excessive memory use of the NIS server (ypserv.) I can (sort of) reproduce it by issuing ypwhich -m from the box itself or another machine in my LAN which is just a NIS client. Suddenly there are several copies of ypserv in the process list which consume ridiculous amounts of memory and cause the machine to start swapping excessively, bringing it to a crawl. Here are two top snapshots I was able to create: = 8x = PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT LIB %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND 376 root 17 0 9272 4996 132 D 0 9.1 12.9 0:01 ypserv 377 root 20 0 9280 4936 136 R 0 8.9 12.8 0:01 ypserv 373 root 13 0 1372 1372 700 R 0 8.8 3.5 0:13 top 375 root 14 0 9260 4224 132 D 0 8.1 10.9 0:01 ypserv 380 root 7 0 9324 3256 1072 R 0 7.2 8.4 0:01 ypserv 379 root 6 0 9296 5420 128 R 0 6.7 14.0 0:01 ypserv 378 root 5 0 9292 5604 156 R 0 6.6 14.5 0:01 ypserv 381 root 6 0 548 548 472 D 0 6.5 1.4 0:00 shutdown 2 root 8 0 00 0 SW 0 3.9 0.0 0:02 kswapd 160 root 1 0 232 160 104 S 0 0.7 0.4 0:00 ypbind 286 root 0 0 588 572 276 S 0 0.7 1.4 0:00 bash 355 root 0 0 380 12076 S 0 0.3 0.3 0:01 sshd 4 root 0 0 00 0 SW 0 0.1 0.0 0:00 kupdate 147 root 1 0 9476 3308 3192 S 0 0.1 8.6 0:00 ypserv 1 root 0 0 100 5240 S 0 0.0 0.1 0:03 init 3 root 0 0 00 0 SW 0 0.0 0.0 0:00 kflushd = 8x = 1:30pm up 9:24, 3 users, load average: 2.57, 1.31, 0.91 50 processes: 45 sleeping, 5 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped CPU states: 2.9% user, 43.9% system, 0.0% nice, 53.0% idle Mem: 38456K av, 29624K used, 8832K free, 0K shrd,148K buff Swap: 131064K av, 14108K used, 116956K free 1880K cached PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT LIB %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND 7706 root 14 0 8856 3072 152 D 0 4.8 7.9 0:00 ypserv 7711 root 13 0 8780 259640 R 0 4.4 6.7 0:00 ypserv 7708 root 11 0 8772 260844 D 0 4.3 6.7 0:00 ypserv 7710 root 12 0 8776 366848 R 0 4.3 9.5 0:00 ypserv 7709 root 11 0 8772 358848 R 0 4.2 9.3 0:00 ypserv 7707 root 16 0 8760 294436 R 0 4.1 7.6 0:00 ypserv 7704 root 12 0 1356 1356 700 R 0 2.4 3.5 0:05 top 7712 root 18 0 8856 1024 168 D 0 2.4 2.6 0:00 ypserv 150 root 8 0 8896 1244 280 S 0 1.6 3.2 0:22 ypserv 2 root 2 0 00 0 SW 0 0.8 0.0 2:59 kswapd 83 daemon 1 0 252 232 200 S 0 0.5 0.6 0:10 portmap 7653 root 1 0 392 160 100 S 0 0.2 0.4 0:02 sshd 1 root 0 0 100 5240 S 0 0.0 0.1 0:07 init 3 root 0 0 00 0 SW 0 0.0 0.0 0:00 kflushd 4 root 0 0 00 0 SW 0 0.0 0.0 0:02 kupdate 135 root 0 0 228 168 136 S 0 0.0 0.4 0:06 syslogd 137 root 0 0 660 168 140 S 0 0.0 0.4 0:01 klogd = 8x = I'm pretty sure my config is ok (I've set up NIS servers before, both under Linux and under Solaris.)

Two nics arp problem
Hi, One week ago, I've installed potato on a digital as1000 4/266 (alpha) The purpose for this machine is to become the bastion host of our network. It's being prepared for the moment.

PL doesnt working
Hi all, I'm trying to install an Private Line (PL) between my machine and an ISP. When I plug the modem (external US Robotics 56k), it connects automatically with the ISP. When the ISP tries to ping my modem, its RX lights on. There isnt any autenthication. I try to use pon and I receive and a local and remote IP. But when I try to ping any other IP other than mine local I receive the error connection refused. I cant ping! I'm using slink and 2.0.36. I can see ppp0 interface with ifconfig. What can be wrong?

Bug Tracking System: Much to many bugs
Since I've reported a bug myself I've looked a little bit throught the Bug Tracking System. In my view the list of bugs is much to large. Something has to be done to get rid of bugs, especially old ones. So I suggest the following: 1. Anyone who ever reported a bug should check if it still applies. I guess a substantial number of bug reports might just be removed. If a bug still applies make a corresponding note in the Bug Tracking System, possibly with information about the new check conditions. 2. Anyone who is interested to get rid of bugs might just pick any bug (preferable the older ones) to hunt down any new info about the bug. There are new tools/infos around to discover the reason for a bug. This certainly will help developers to fix bugs. Of course there has to be a corresponding note in the Bug Tracking System. 3. Anyone who is capable of solving bugs might just pick any bug and send a fixing patch directly to the maintainer. For would-be programmer bug hunting is by far the best technic to get used to software hacking. There's no way around making errors himself or learning from others errors. I do address the problematic of the Bug Tracking System to the user community since it's their responsibility to get rid of bugs. The developers responsibility is making bugs (haha, of course making programms) and to fixed them from time to time. So don't nerve any developer unless you provide a patch or at least some substantial new information. O. Wyss
Inconsistent error in ssh installation
Hello: I have noticed a very strange installation problem with the ssh which was just uploaded to the frozen distribution today (1.2.3-5). I upgraded it on about 10 systems and 5 install fine but the other 5 give an error on the post-installation script. I have checked the installed packages on two identical systems, (one of which shows the error and the other not) and there is no apparent difference in the lists. The error I am getting when I try to configure the package is below: - rabi:/home/segre# dpkg --pending --configure Setting up ssh (1.2.3-5) ... dpkg: error processing ssh (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 10 Errors were encountered while processing: ssh - When I poke around in the ssh.postinst script, I find that the error occurs in the code fragment: - # sort out whether we're installing ssh suid RET=false test -e /usr/share/debconf/confmodule { . /usr/share/debconf/confmodule db_version 2.0 db_get ssh/SUID_client } - I suspect that this is not a bug because it works on some systems but not others, however, I am at a loss.

Postgresql documentation/behavior inconsistency
I've just installed the latest unstable release of postgresql (v 7.0.2) on my machine, and I'm a little confused with an inconsistency in the local documentation and the docs provided at Postgresql.org. On this page: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/tutorial/advanced.htm#AEN1494 it says that the Select * from cities* is old, deprecated behavior. However in my local copy the documentation reflects that as the current behavior. As far as I can tell 7.0.2 is the latest. Does anybody know the source of the inconsistency?

a central script to choose what daemons to start

For instance, I would like to have apache installed on my laptop, but I don't want to start it everytime I boot up. Editing /etc/init.d/* won't help me much because then I will have to change it everytime I upgrade the package. The ppp's init script uses the file /etc/ppp/ppp-on-boot, to detect whether to start pppd at boot time, wouldn't it be great if we have a some kind of similar file, like /etc/default-daemon, which all the init scripts will check that file to determine whether to start or not?

The files in /etc/init.d are listed as conf files, so when you upgrade the package you'll be asked if you want to replace the old file with the new one. What you might want to do here, though, is define a couple of different runlevels, maybe 3 and 4 that only differ in that 4 starts Apache while 3 does not. Have 3 be your default runlevel. You can specify via LILO at boottime which runlevel to go to. So if you are booting and want to go to runlevel 4, just pass 4 as a parameter to your kernel image.

Thanks for any help in advance. Well, you can use update-rc.d to accomplish this to some degree, eg., update-rc.d -f xdm remove would cause the removal of the links in /etc/rc?.d to the /etc/init.d/xdm script and so xdm wouldn't be automatically started at boot. Remember, the scripts in /etc/init.d have to be linked to from the appropriate runlevel directory. On Debian the default runlevel is 2 and so the scripts that actually get executed are in /etc/rc2.d. Of course everything in there is just a link to a script in /etc/init.d/ But, unfortunately, you'll still be stuck redoing this after every upgrade because very few (none?) of the packages check to see if you've deleted the links, they just go ahead and put them in. The IRIX OS running on SGIs has something like you suggest. They too use the SYSV init style, with /etc/rc?.d directories, but they also have a utility called chkconfig that allows you to turn the scripts on and off. At the beginning of most scripts in /etc/init.d is a line like: IS_ON=/sbin/chkconfig then before any daemons are started there's a if $IS_ON daemon or service name; then start daemon fi the chkconfig utility just keeps files in /var/config that have the word on or off in them and executing chkconfig daemon or service returns 0 if that word is on or non-zero if the word is off. It's nice but I don't know if it's everyone's cup of tea. Gary

(after the compile, i moved the old kernel to /boot/oldvmlinuz-2.0.36, as i thought, perhaps needlessly, that the new kernel (/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.16)) needed its own vmlinuz identity. in case the compile is at issue, here's what i did from bt:/usr/src/linux#: make menuconfig make dep make install make modules make modules_install there isn't, nor will there be, another os on the lapbox, just dlinux. the rescue disk won't even let me backdoor the system: mount failed: invalid argument (when i tried to mount hda1). anyway, ...suggestions/options? ia, t. bentley taylor. //

It would be helpful if you were to give more details, such as quoting error messages, etc. The range of possibilities of software problems are so wide ranging that diagnosis without a symptom report is impossible. I think there is a problem with the netscape startup script. Please see the for loop around line 277. It contains a syntax error, which is easy to fix. But sourcing all those files it wants to doesn't make any sence. It's trying to source directories and a README file. I will send you a patch as soon as my linux host is back. Stupid me I removed the /etc/default? directory. Send me a tar ball of that directory so I can put it back you.

If someone could tar up their /etc/default directory it would be great. Then I could use that /etc/default tar ball as guidance so that I can recreat mine. I am still able to bring the machine online, with a hand job, but its just barely. -Thanks guys. I need this today if possible. I'll send what I have in another reply, not to the list, but I have doubt that it'll do you much good, since it seems to be installation-dependent, having files needed by the particular software configuration installed (IOW installation set). It is apparently not like /etc/skel... I'll attach a .tar.gz, and also paste in a uuencode...

iMac: boot Debian Linux from CD-ROM
I want to boot from a most recent official release of Debian on a new iMac G3. In Open Firmware, I type boot cdrom or equivalently boot cd:,\\:tbxi and I get the error message: load-size=1000 adler32=edd16114 unrecognized Client Program Format. my boot-device line reads: boot-device cd: hd:,\\tbxi I don't know if there's something wrong about this hd:,\\tbxi that remains. I can hear the cd-rom turning after typing boot cdrom, so something's happenin'.. What's wrong? is it that I can't use the slink version on an iMac? (can I get the potatoe on a cd-rom?) thanks a bunch, Philip

I belive slink was the first multicd release, if you have 2.0 it is probably one cd. On Fri, Jun 23, 2000 at 07:13:04PM -0400, Mark Marburger wrote: Why do I keep hearing about multiple CDs?

boot floppies
Hi debs I've been booting this system with a boot floppy for some time now. Say I wanted to create new boot disks for any potato machine, how would I most easily do this? Anyone had experience with the package boot-floppies? TIA -- S. Burgener Powered by Debian GNU/Linux 2.2
question on sysvinit
Hi all I wanted to know why that when changing runlevels from say 2 to 3, the KILL links of _3_ and not 2 get executed before starting the START links of 3...? I mean, at that point you're leaving runlevel 2 and it would only make sense to stop those runlevel's services and not the new runlevel's, right? Am I missing something here? If that's the case, please tell me. :) TIA -- S. Burgener Powered by Debian GNU/Linux 2.2

Bash script question (was: Re: Netscape 4.73 wrapper broken)
Corey Popelier [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yes I have this problem also. I assume we shall await a fix. And use Mozilla in the meantime :) Or we could try to fix it... the error is with the code: for d in \ /usr/lib/netscape/base-4/wrapper.d \ /usr/lib/netscape/$VER \ /usr/lib/netscape/$VER/$BIN ;do for f in (cd $d;ls -1 . | sort); do . $d/$f done done And the problem seems to be with a syntax error at the line for f in (cd $d;ls -1 . | sort); do According to man bash, the (cd $d;ls -1 . | sort) is a compound command where the stuff in brackets is executed in its own shell. So what this line seems to be trying to do, is to go to a certain directory, get a sorted listing of the files there and then go through them one by one, executing . $d/$f for each of them. What is the . command??? I thought it was the current directory? Anyway, the reason for the syntax error is with the definition of a for loop in bash. From man bash: for name [ in word ] ; do list ; done Now word is a list of blank separated words I believe, so it does not allow the (cd $d;ls -1 . | sort) construction to be used here. So somehow we need to find an alternative. Any ideas? Thanks, Mark. P.S. For any replies, please cc a copy directly to me.

Suggestion: more frequent list archive updates
Hi, I am currently not subscribed to debian-user simply because I don't have the disk space to handle all the messages. So what I do is read it via the archives. The problem is that there is a day or two lag between a message being sent and it appearing in the archive. This delay makes interactive use of the list difficult. The thought I had was: why not make the archive much more responsive? Why not update it every few minutes? Now perhaps there are good reasons why this is not possible But I would have thought it wouldn't be too hard. Surely a web based interface to the list is a more efficient way to go in any case?
