Estas tratando de ejectutar lmsensors como usuario normal sin tener permiso. Tampocorrll. Lo he ejecutado como root. Primero sensors-detect y después sensors. El problema, creo yo, reside en que no sé cómo narices cargar los módulos que tocan. Tras ejecutar sensors-detect como root concluye con una lista de módulos que he de añadir a /etc/modules (según él) y que está vacía. Luego me dice que añada un alias en un fichero de /etc/modutils, pero esto ya me lo hizo automáticamente al instalarme el paquete. También tengo un sensors.conf en /etc, pero no creo que vayan por ahí los tiros. En fin, me leeré la documentación exhaustivamente, aunque la verdad, para mi gusto es de las peores que he encontrado. No veo que de forma rápida y directa te guíen a poner en marcha el asunto, como pasa con otras documentaciones. Cuando quieres mariconadas ya entonces te lees a fondo la documentación ... pero bueno, es mi opinión. Gracias por el intento, no obstante.

El problema puede aparecer a veces: te encuentras con un proceso al cual no puedes matar, por mucha señal nueve que le eches (kill -9 pid). Si miras con 'ps aux' o en 'top' ves casi siempre que el proceso resistente está en estado 'D'. Según 'man 1 ps', el estado 'D' significa sueño ininterrumpible. Generalmente es que el proceso está a la espera de que se complete una operación de entrada/salida, por lo que sé. No es que el sistema no pueda matar al proceso. El problema tampoco es que no reciba nuestra famosa señal nueve. Sí que la recibe. Pero a menos que esté equivocado las señales sólo se comprueban cuando el proceso recibe la CPU. Y si está en espera no recibirá la CPU hasta que suceda lo que está esperando. Y a veces eso no sucede. Espero haber ayudado.

Re: Ayuda con PCMCIA SCSI
Hola, lamento ser pesao, pero es que estoy ya desesperado ... Juan C. Amengual wrote: Hola a tod*s, estoy teniendo problemas con una tarjeta UltraSCSI Adaptec SlimSCSI 1480A. Os cuento. He compilado los fuentes del PCMCIA para el kernel 2.2.15 de la Potato, por supuesto activando soporte SCSI en el núcleo, pero sin elegir ningún low-level driver. En el Configure del PCMCIA, he seleccionado la opción Cardbus, antes de compilar. La compilación la he hecho, como siempre, utilizando el kernel-package. Pues bien, cuando inserto la tarjeta, me dice que: aic7xxx: Adaptec PCMCIA SCSI controller at PCI 35/0/0 aic7xxx: I/O ports already in use, ignoring. ¡aquí está el problema! scsi : 0 hosts. Lo único que he encontrado por ahí es (y cito textualmente del PCMCIA-HowTo): La reservación de puertos de E/S no es muy común, pero algunas veces pasa con tarjetas que requieren regiones de espacio de E/S grandes, contiguas y alineadas, o que sólo reconocen pocas posiciones específicas de puertos. Los rangos de puertos de E/S por omisión en /etc/pcmcia/config.opts normalmente son suficientes, pero pueden ser extendidos. En casos extraños, la reservación puede indicar que falló la prueba de puertos de E/S (revise ''Fallas en la búsqueda de puertos de E/S''). La reservación de memoria no es común también con las configuraciones de la ventana de memoria que vienen por omisión en config.opts. Las tarjetas CardBus pueden requerir regiones de memoria más grandes que las tarjetas típicas de 16-bits. A partir de que las ventanas de memoria de las tarjetas CardBus pueden ser mapeadas a cualquier parte del espacio de la dirección PCI del host (en lugar de sólo mapearlo al ''agujero'' de 640K-1MB en sistemas PC), es de utilidad especificar grandes ventanas de memoria en la memoria alta, tal como 0xa000-0xa0ff. Esa gran ventana de memoria es, efectivamente, la que viene especificada en /etc/pcmcia/config.opts. ¿Puede algún mortal, por favor, decirme qué @·%$¡! está ocurriendo? Tengo una tarjeta SCSI parada por culpa de la m...da ésta. Gracias. Sin embargo, sí me carga los módulos apa1480_cb y cb_enabler. El primero es el módulo que maneja la tarjeta en cuestión, según la documentación de las PCMCIA, el segundo no sé lo que hace pero al parecer es necesario. Además me carga el scsi_mod. He comprobado con un compañero que tiene el mismo portátil y tarjeta que yo y a él no le da el más mínimo problema. Él tiene la Mandrake con kernel 2.2.13. En su mandrake la inserción de la tarjeta provoca que se carguen los módulos apa1480_cb y cb_enabler solamente. Porfa, una ayudita. La verdad es que no sé qué narices está pasando ... ¡y además me había burlado de su Mandrake presumiendo de la Potato!

Re: teclado en griego clásico
La cuestión es... ¿en que consiste un teclado de griego clásico? ¿Que carácteres existían en griego clásico? ¿No son los mismos que en griego actual? Implementar un teclado en griego clásico en Linux no es ningún problema, tan sólo hace falta configurar el mapa de teclado, y eso no supone ningún problema. Seguro que existe algo así. Lo más importante, es que hacen falta una fuente con los carácteres de griego clásico para poder ver lo que se escribe y imprimirlos. Supongo que tu amigo quiere escribir textos o insertar códigos de griego clásico en sus textos en español. ¿No? Creo que el mejor sistema para esto es el TeX, porque no hace falta que use teclado griego clásico, si no tan sólo unos cuantos macros especiales y automáticamente se le añadirán estos carácteres en su documento impreso. -- Saudos: ose[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Vigo/Galicia/España) http://pagina.de/xmanoel/ http://w3.to/mikkeli/

Danito: Despues de leer esto a mi me surge la siguiente pregunta ¿Como puede ser que el sistema no pueda matar un proceso?. El que un programa tenga un bug en principio no debería afectar al resto del sistema como ocurre en Mocochof ¿¿No??. No es nada que se compare.

El problema tampoco es que no reciba nuestra famosa señal nueve. Sí que la recibe. Pero a menos que esté equivocado las señales sólo se comprueban cuando el proceso recibe la CPU. Tienes razón. El proceso queda en un estado de sonanbulismo que puede durar mucho tiempo. En un servidor que esté siempre conectado eso no te afecta, pues normalmente el proceso acaba por morir, y mientras está en ese estado no te consume casi ningún recurzo. El problema es cuando tienes que desconectar rapidamente y no puedes esperar al que el proceso acepte su destino final y muera. Jaime Villate

Re: mirror de ficheros de local a remoto
Hola Andrés, ¿cómo te va? Hay unos paquetes debian de sitecopy y xsitecopy. #apt-cache show sitecopy Package: sitecopy Version: 1:0.8.4-1 Description: A program for managing a WWW site via FTP sitecopy is for copying locally stored websites to remote ftp servers. The program will upload files to the server which have changed locally, and delete files from the server which have been removed locally, to keep the remote site synchronized with the local site, with a single command. The aim is to remove the hassle of uploading and deleting individual files using an FTP client. sitecopy will also optionally try to spot files you move locally, and move them remotely. . sitecopy is designed to not care about what is actually on the remote server - it simply keeps a record of what it THINKS is in on the remote server, and works from that. installed-size: 133 Un saludo K-charro Andres Seco Hernandez wrote: Hola Quiero automatizar el envio de unas paginas al servidor web y para ello querría usar una de las herramientas para mantener mirrors, pero veo que todas transmiten de remoto a local, pero no veo al reves.

Si uno de los ficheros corresponde a un dispositivo con problemas no hay nada que hacer. Los drivers de los dispositivos como es natural forman parte del núcleo y si el nucleo tiene un problema ya no es un problema aislado en un determinado proceso. Un ejemplo si abres un dispositivo de cinta /dev/st0 en lugar de /dev/nst0 estás obligando a que rebobine la cinta cuando se cierre el dispositivo. Aunque mates con kill -9 tendrás que esperar a que termine de rebobinar la cinta para que el proceso muera. Si el driver que tiene que cerar no puede cerrar el proceso no podría terminar.

El CD reproduce música como los normales, si detecta que son de música, pues se pone a reproducirla y solo necesitas unos cascas -suelen tener salida para cascos- o unos altavoces, sabrás que hay un cable que va directamente de el cd a la tarjeta de sonido, ¿ A que no sabes para que sirve ?, si exacto !, para usar la salida a los altavoces sin que el ordenador se entere ) Pregunta: ¿ Como hago para ejecutar .mod .wav .midi .etc ? hago la pregunta mientras me leo sound-playing-howto Necesitas los programas oportunos, una cosa es tener soporte para sonido y otra un reproductor de .waw, .mod, .mp3 ...

Mike, I've used both the 8.1.5 and 8.1.6.1 versions. Definitely stick with the latter. The installation was pretty much a breeze.

mcserv over SSL - any experiences?
Hi All, I need to provide my users with the possibility of safe and convenient file transfer. The ftp is difficult for setup with SSL. The scp lacks the convenient GUI or TUI. The mcserv (from midnight commander suite) seems to be a good alternative. However I don't know if it can be easily setup for working over the SSL... On the server's side it can be easily solved using the stunnel. On the client's side however setting the stunnel by hand before connecting seems to be very inconvenient...

On the server's side it can be easily solved using the stunnel. On the client's side however setting the stunnel by hand before connecting seems to be very inconvenient... Does anybody know how to configure the mc to work with mcserv over SSL? Maybe someone knows the better alternative? -- TIA Greeetings Wojciech Zabolotny [EMAIL PROTECTED] Have you considered 'mirrordir'. It provides security natively.

Firewall
Yet another problem I have been having with a Debian install. Sorry to keep pestering. Here is my problem stated simply. I need to create a firewall between our internal network and the internet while still allowing the machines inside the network some limited access out and in. i.e.. keep our webservers etc. inside the firewall. I have two network cards installed in my machine and I have followed the FIREWALL-HOWTO to the t. here is my configuration eth0 xxx.xxx.xxx.1 :Connected to the internal network eth1 xxx.xxx.xxx.2 :Connected to the internet. # note that the xxx.xxx.xxx are the same subnet since we are allocated a class C domain. my routing table looks similar to this: DESTINATIONGATEWAYGENMASK...

Right now all I can do is access both of the IP addresses from either the internet or the internal network. However no matter what I do I can't get past the firewall (it works too well). I have enabled PI forwarding in the kernel and set the IP_forward file to 1 as well as set the forward ipchains to wide open, as in: ipchains -A forward -j ACCEPT as the only rule.

What you need is subnetting your class C network in several smaller subnets. The first one would be x.x.x.0/255.255.255.252 (or 248 if you want several addresses outside your firewall, for an i.e. Intrusion detection system) The other ones would fit your needs. The firewall would then have a NIC (eth0) in the first subnet (x.x.x.0/30 (or/29)), and the second one (eth1) would be in any other. Then, you can proxy-arp the different subnets or ask your ISP to route all trafic to your subnets through eth0. That's what I've done, as it's easier for me to manage than to modify my arp table each time I add/remove a computer. I've been told that ISP usually don't make problems for routing.

netscape 4.73 fortify (potato)
As an extremely conservative user i have just upgraded to potato (and, since in the moment i upgraded something was wrong because some important library was deleted, hosing my complete system, my conservatism has been reinforced -- i had done slink - potato upgrades successfully before, too). Fortify doesn't recognize the executable I'm giving it.

I shouldn't be suprised since lynx file:/usr/share/doc/fortify/README.html#versions only lists up to version 4.72. Anyone have any recommendations as to forcing the fortify, downgrading netscape, or waiting for fortify to be upgraded? Thanks for advice, cheers, judith
Re: Filtering Email in Pine
Hi Adam, it takes just seconds to filter mail in Pine. From main menu, type S for setup. Then R for rules. Then F for filter. Then A for add. Give the rule a nickname by replacing the no value set in the menu. Put the Debian user list address on the Cc: line. At the bottom, choose the Folder you want it moved to. Exit. You're half-way done! Repeat to set another rule for which From: is the Debian address while Cc: is unspecified. That's it. pine is great. I've never used mutt. What's good about it?

First, via dselect, you can choose any of about 3 or 4 versions of netscape to be installed on your system, possibly even simultaneously. You can remove 4.73 and install 4.72 if that's what you want, or you might be able to have them both installed. Of course you can also use apt-get to install, for example, 4.72: apt-get install netscape-smotif-472 will probably do the trick. I believe that due to the relaxation of US export control on cryptographic technology fortify will not be supporting any of the Netscape 4.73 or greater products. Personally I downloaded the 4.73 *.tar.gz navigator file directly from Netscape, with strong encryption built in, and installed it in /usr/local. Gary
Re: Java support? (apache + tomcat)
Oh, if you're running slink then that's the problem. Unfortunately the package doesn't exist in slink, probably because it wasn't packaged until potato was underway. The jdk package available in slink is called jdk1.1 so 'apt-get install jdk1.1' should work fine. BTW, http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages is very helpful for looking up packages. Also, I've been running potato for a while and it's pretty stable except that every once in a while a package is submitted which won't install properly. I deal with this by simply resisting the temptation to daily 'apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade' which it seems so many people do and then moan and groan about how this or that package doesn't work. If you're willing to put up with this occasional convenience it's worth going to potato for all those packages you'd really like to run. Gregory Guthrie wrote: At 03:32 PM 06/27/2000 -0500, Jens B.

Re: SSL for smtp pop
Wilson Yau wrote: Maybe this is not quite a relevant question should be posted on this mailing list, but I'd be very grateful if anyone can give me quick correct answers to the following questions: Q.1/ I have a mail server running Debian/GNU Linux Potato 2.2 w/ kernel 2.2.15. Is there any open source utilities I can use to enable SSL support for both pop smtp? The qmail-src package provides the source for the excellent MTA qmail. See: http://www.qmail.org/top.html . SSL (read: TLS) support in qmail is available through a patch which is listed on the qmail page: http://www.esat.kuleuven.ac.be/~vermeule/qmail/tls.patch . I haven't tried to compile and use this myself. Actually if I may insert my opinion TLS is worthless for general use because you can only count on the mail being encrypt from you to your MTA. After that it will be relayed to the next SMTP server and that one probably doesn't support TLS so it'll be sent in the clear. SSL is lots easier for POP because with POP SSL is handled differently. With SMTP support is added through a special command (STARTTLS) which tells the server to start up TLS. This is necessary because SMTP always has to run on port 25 since all systems assume this. With POP, a different port is used. Standard pop-3 runs on port 110 and pop-3 over ssl uses port 995. So, if you want to run pop-3 over ssl you can use the stunnel package. The stunnel package works by just sitting in between the client and any old pop-3 server you care to run. Q.2/ Do Outlook Express 5.0 onwards Netscape 4.6 onwards offer SSL support for both pop smtp? If they do not, any other mail clients do? Netscape 4.6 does support secure pop-3 and smtp. I haven't tried the secure smtp before but I have used pop-3 over ssl and can testify that it works. Thank you for your quick help! Sure, if you want any tips on qmail or setting up secure pop-3 I'd be happy to lend my experience. -- Jens B. Jorgensen [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Help with COM port based terminal access
This is easily done by running mgetty on the port. Note that booting your computer keyboard-less can be a problem. Many systems will hang in the BIOS POST if they can't sense the keyboard is present. On some systems this can be turned off in the BIOS setup. This has nothing to do with linux. I believe you can buy little plugs which go in the keyboard connector which will make the system think there's a keyboard present. I also found that I had to modify the kernel source to get linux to boot without a keyboard but this was with a 2.0.X (where X == I don't remember what) in order to get it to work because there was some startup assembly code which was making a call to clear the keyboard buffer and it would cause the system to hang (or crash, can't remember which). Hopefully this is alleviated in more recent kernels. Serial console support should be set up in your kernel config (you're going to need to compile your own kernel) and lilo can be set up for serial console support as well.

g++ identity crisis, slink
Hi, I'm running slink and I was trying to 'make' some c++ programs I was messing around with the other day and discovered that even though my Makefile says to use g++, make was using cc to compile the programs. /usr/bin/g++ is a program, not a link to anything. If I rename /usr/bin/cc, make refuses to run. I did do a make -v to make sure it was GNU make, and it is. (someone mentioned to me that this might be an issue) Now, I vaguely remember something in setting up my system that might have had something to do with which compiler I liked or wanted to be default or something... but it's really hazy and I could be wrong. _Is_ there something like that in the debian set-up and, if so, is there a way to change/override it? -Alice Alice M.

This thing does not happen if I write, directly from the command line: modprobe ide-cd ignore='hdb hdc' Perhaps it's just that the kernel source is not Debianised. What do you mean? Only that the filename chosen for conf.modules or modules.conf is not known by the person writing the kernel because the kernel source and the distribution are unrelated. Likewise, much documentation will assume that kernel sources are unpacked and built in /usr/src/linux whereas Debian people are encouraged not to do that. Take a look at /etc/conf.modules (not modules.conf) and then follow the comments, There's no /etc/conf.modules in Debian 2.2, at least not in my /etc directory! :) Sorry, I hadn't noticed that Debian has changed filenames recently, as someone else pointed out. i.e. put your options into /etc/modutils/local and then update-modules. That's what i had already done, but it didn't change anything. ide-cd still ignores just one device. Anyway, thanks. Well, after checking that the ignore has made it into the correct file, and looking carefully for typos, then my reaction would be to put an extra printk or two into the kernel source and see what it's actually doing. 2.2.10 has: MOD_INC_USE_COUNT; printk(ide-cd: will ignore %s\n, ignore); - while ((drive = ide_scan_devices (ide_cdrom, ide_cdrom_driver.name, NULL, failed++)) != NULL) { /* skip drives that we were told to ignore */ if (ignore != NULL) printk(ide-cd: checking drive %s\n, drive-name); - if (strstr(ignore, drive-name)) { printk(ide-cd: ignoring drive %s\n, drive-name); continue; } and I've added the two marked lines. If the string 'hdb hdc' doesn't arrive intact at that point (for example, a character has been stripped off or something), then you can try some workarounds, like ignore='a hdb hdc a'. It depends what it prints out.

Re: wu-ftpd (2000-06-23 security-fixed frozen version) constantly crashes

Re: Help with COM port based terminal access
Oh, ok. Now I'm with you. Sure, for this you don't want mgetty. Just use the regular getty that's already on the system. Here's what you do. First edit /etc/inittab to get init to run a getty on your chosen serial port (I'll assume for purposes of exposition you want to use the first serial port, /dev/ttyS0). I'll also assume you want to run the port at 38400bps. Add the following line to /etc/inittab: T0:23:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS0 38400 vt100 Now to get init running this do 'kill -HUP 1' (init is always the first process in linux and so will always have the pid 1, the HUP signal tells init to reread /etc/inittab and act accordingly for any changes). Now the getty should be running. On your laptop you'll want to install a terminal program. I prefer seyon (which is an X app) or minicom (curses app). Hook up your null-modem (Rx and Tx are swapped) serial cable, run your terminal program, set the bps to 38400 and you should be in business. You should get a login prompt.

On some systems this can be turned off in the BIOS setup. This has nothing to do with linux. I believe you can buy little plugs which go in the keyboard connector which will make the system think there's a keyboard present. I also found that I had to modify the kernel source to get linux to boot without a keyboard but this was with a 2.0.X (where X == I don't remember what) in order to get it to work because there was some startup assembly code which was making a call to clear the keyboard buffer and it would cause the system to hang (or crash, can't remember which). Hopefully this is alleviated in more recent kernels. Serial console support should be set up in your kernel config (you're going to need to compile your own kernel) and lilo can be set up for serial console support as well.

setting i/o address for eth0
hello everyone, I've been having problems getting my linksys nic to work, and now I know what the problem is. trouble is I don't know how to fix it. the problem is that everything has a different i/o address for the card. it uses the tulip driver. tulip (and the accompanying pci-scan) were both recently compiled from the latest stable version at www.scyld.com. link lights come on for the card and hub, and I can use ifconfig without errors. I noticed the problem because I couldn't get a dhcp server to work. I have potato with kernel 2.2.15. when my card loads up during booting, I get the following configuration: eth0: Lite-On PNIC-II rev 37 at 0xc3832c00, 00:A0:CC:E2:43:2D, IRQ 11 when I look at ifconfig eth0, I get ... various network parameters, all correct Interrupt:11 Base address:0x2c00 if I go and look at /proc/pci, the card with irq 11 appears to be at 0xf400. in /proc/ioports, it's at 0xc3832c00. if I try just doing ifconfig eth0 io_addr 0xf400, I get SIOCSIFMAP: Operation not supported how else can I change this address? c3832c00 looks too big to even be in i/o memory, and my guess is that the pci bus is actually looking at f400 to talk to the card. I've no idea what ifconfig's 2c00 would mean. agh. -david --- David C. Ables 3D Printing Lab Massachusetts Institute of Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I subneted our class C network using a netmask of 255.255.255.252 and put the gateway address as xxx.xxx.xxx.1 and the machine inside the firewall as xxx.xxx.xxx.2, the firewall machine can still see the outside and inside world and the inside machine can still see both IP addresses of the firewall machine. Any other thoughts? You missed his point of having the NIC on the inside in a different subnet than that of the NIC on the outside.

It should be one or the other, to wit: URC=YOURCLASSC inet===ISP.n1/router/ISP.n2===ISP.n2|n3/yours/URC.x===urnet or inet===ISP.x/router/YOURCLASSC.n1===URC.n1|n2/yours/URC.n3===urnet With the former, you don't need any subnetting, really, and is preferable. With the later, you may need to subnet ...252 with the far end as one of those, and the near end as the other. The other NIC would be _not_ in that subnet. The /etc/defaultrouter, or equiv, on the hosts in urnet=URC.n3. On your router/firewall, default dest (0.0.0.0) gateway is the IP on the ISPs router. With you giving the IP to the ISP, dest xx.xx.xx.0 netmask ...252 gateway xx.xx.xx.yourend If you're subnetting ...252, _don't_ put two addresses in _that_ subnet on two of the NICs in your router/firewall.

Any experiences so far? ext3 exists only as a patch against the kernel. Once it is actually in a kernel we ship, we can turn the option on. Until then, it would be irresponsible of us to ship alpha kernel patches. I assume the speaker was Stephen Tweedie. He does indeed work for RH. I work with Ted, and have heard about how ext3 can ruin systems. There are also numerous hacks in place to allow you to use it currently. For instance the journal the FS uses must be created by hand and is an actual file in the OS. This allows them to debug the fs, but also allows an accidental rm to fry all of your journal.
