seccion non-us
Saludos Tengo la debian potato, y estoy buscando el pine y el gnupg, pero no los encuentro (estoy usando el dselect; he probado el console-apt pero da un error cuando intentas instalar un programa: no encuentra el path) Segun tengo entendido el pine y el gnupg estan en la seccion non-us pero no aparece listado en el dselect. Por cierto debian cada vez me gusta mas... la unica pega que le encuentro (si, soy un pesado, pero con las criticas es como se mejoran los productos) son los instaladores: dselect no es util para manejar una gran cantidad de paquetes, y console-apt aun le falta bastante para alcanzar la funcionalidad del yast1.

Client Linux para MS SQL
Hola. Una peticion rara. Aqui en el curro tenemos todo MS ( : ). Estamos haciendo desarrollo con ASP y MS SQL Server. Lo del ASP no tengo problema porque supongo que se podra acceder con Samba (y no corremos los programas localmente). Mi problema es como conectar con MS SQL server desde aqui (tengo que crear tablas y cosas asi, y la verdad no me apetece tener que hacerlo todo a mano ni crearme un front-end (?como se dice en espannol?) para hacerlo. ?Alguien tiene alguna idea? Me gustaria mucho poder cambiarme a Linux (y de paso demostrarles que no se cuelga cada dos por tres). Gracias de antemano Gabriel --- FREE!

como cambiar gmt
Hola Al parecer no me esta funcionando bien el cambio de hora de verano o cuando definí en la generacion la diferencia de hora en una maquina cometi un error. El problema es que me actualizo de un servidor por ntpdate y la otra pc la actualizo por rdate de la primera, pero tengo una hora de diferencia entre ambas. Mi pregunta Existe algun fichero que tenga registrado el gmt? De forma tal que yo pueda revisarlo y poner la diferencia de hora correctamente o si es que el problema es el cambio de hora de verano,poner la diferencia que me de correctamente la hora.

Deberia correr bien a esa resolucion ya que asi lo dice el README.cirrrus de la documentacion del XFree86 y ademas en otro sistema operativo cuyo nombre no quiero mencionar si corre perfectamente con esa resolucion. El monitor que uso es un viewsonic E40. Ya trate con todos los configuradores posibles y todos me configuran a 32 bit con la resolucion de 1024 pero igual siguen saliendo esas horribles rayas.

Re: [debian-br] Re: debian 2.2 é a escolha de info
A conversa tocou tão fundo na ferida que até resolvi entrar na história. Eu gostaria de chamar a atenção para um fato que a maioria das pessoas não presta atenção: A falta de uma revista técnica de qualidade sobre informática. A maioria esmagadora das revistas de hoje vem com cd rom. Uma revista que eu cheguei a gostar um pouco é a Linux Actual, uma revista portuguesa sobre Linux. Porém, vem com cd rom, como as outras. Não existe hoje uma revista que venda informação. Essa Linux Actual custa R$25,00 !!! Hoje, encontramos revistas nas bancas que vendem CDs, não artigos e reportagens. A reportagem é só pra justificar um pouco mais o preço da revista. Como a informação está desvalorizada! Na minha opinião, isso deveria acabar. Os micros do futuro nem terão mais disquetes, não terá sentido comprarmos revista apenas para econmizar tempo de download. Eu também gostaria de achar uma boa revista TÉCNICA hoje. A Info virou revista de negócios voltados para informática, é uma subdivisão da exame. Me perdoem pelo trocadilho infâme, mas ainda bem que existe o /usr/doc...

Fresh debian install on LVM partitions using 2.4 kernel: how?
I have bought a new 15Gig disk and want to do a fresh install of Debian on it. But I want to install it using logical partitions installed on top of LVM. I doubt the current dbootstrap install allows for this. To start with the 2.4 kernel is required to get the LVM stuff. I have compiled my own 2.4 kernel succesfully and am running this on my old drive currently. I somehow need the installation program to boot using this kernel, and to allow me to use LVM partitions. Any ideas on how to do this? Alternatively, (and a better solution if possible), it would be nice if I could somehow set the basics up of my new drive manually, while booted on my old drive. For example, if I could install base2_2.tgz myself, and set everything up myself. Any ideas on whether this is possible? Please cc any replies directly to me, as I am not subscribed to the mailing list. (I haven't got enough disk space yet.)

RE: Telnet to mail host replies connection refused
Strongly recommend you take a look at this rant on problem reporting: Let's see if I can better address it using the points from a summary you mentioned. Point 1: The first aim of a bug report is to let the programmer see the failure with his own eyes. This really applies to bug reporting. I did show what was indicating the problem. Namely, telneting to the SMTP port. Please see previous mail for syntax used. Point 2: In case the first aim doesn't succeed, and the programmer can't see it failing himself, the second aim of a bug report is to describe what went wrong. Describe everything in detail. State what you saw, and also state what you expected to see. Write down the error messages, especially if they have numbers in them. Did this. Point 3: When your computer does something unexpected, freeze. Do nothing until you're calm, and don't do anything that you think might be dangerous. OK Point 4: By all means, try to diagnose the fault yourself if you think you can, but if you do, you should still report the symptoms as well. Have tried. Still no clue. Point 5: Be ready to provide extra information if the programmer needs it. If he didn't need it, he wouldn't be asking for it. He isn't being deliberately awkward. Have version numbers at your fingertips, because they will probably be needed. Didn't include version number. It is sendmail 8.9.3 for debian slink. Point 6: Write clearly. Say what you mean, and make sure it can't be misinterpreted. Above all, be precise. Programmers like precision. I think I was ... Anything regarding sendmail or port 25 in your system logs?

raid setup
I had a drive failure yesterday so I am re-thinking my file server. I would like to setup my debian machine as my file server with two drives, each 20 GB or more. I would like one to mirror the other, either as a raid setup or just copying files that have changed every hour. The idea is not to protect me against stupidity, but against mechanical failure. I use the fileserver mainly for making a large number of images available on the network, and for components of collaborative design projects, also mainly images. A drive failure can set us back days, and I have found tape drives to be useless. Even if they do back everything up, it takes too long to find and restore anything. I'm looking at a couple of cheap Seagate 20 GB drives, I would even consider 3 drives in a parity raid if that was do-able. Any comnments?

URGENT! Sendmail question (Redhat conversion) HELP!
Title: URGENT! Sendmail question (Redhat conversion) HELP! Let me start by saying I am not a network admin... but I play one on TV :-) I have recently switch to Debian from RedHat 6.2 and have hit major turbulence porting the sendmail config. The machine in question is our firewall/DNS server and it was set up as the primary MX in DNS and sendmail was configured via the mailertable to relay all mail for our domain to our internal Exchange server. This worked fine under RedHat but I must be crossing wires now or something... Here is the sendmail.mc I am using - it is basically the same one I used under RedHat: -- 8 divert(-1) # # This file is used to configure sendmail for use with Debian systems. # divert(0) OSTYPE(debian) VERSIONID(`@(#)sendmail.mc 8.9.3-21 (Debian) 2309') define(`confDEF_USER_ID',``8:12'') undefine(`UUCP_RELAY') undefine(`BITNET_RELAY') define(`confAUTO_REBUILD') define(`confTRY_NULL_MX_LIST',true) define(`confTO_CONNECT', `1m') define(`PROCMAIL_MAILER_PATH',`/usr/bin/procmail') FEATURE(`smrsh',`/usr/sbin/smrsh') FEATURE(`mailertable',`hash -o /etc/mail/mailertable') FEATURE(`virtusertable',`hash -o /etc/mail/virtusertable') FEATURE(`relay_based_on_MX') FEATURE(redirect) FEATURE(always_add_domain) FEATURE(use_cw_file) FEATURE(local_procmail) MAILER(procmail) MAILER(smtp) -- 8 and in /etc/mail/mailertable I have the following line: mcgeecorp.comSMTP:[192.168.0.6] The config file builds ok (after squawking about empty dbs - access, relay_domains, and local_host_names) and sendmail runs. I receive mail but cannot send/relay - I get smtp Connection Refused errors in the mail.log. Also, under RedHat, the relay= section in the mail.log entries always showed the ip address of the host being relayed to (192.168.0.6) whereas now it shows mcgeecorp.com - why is this?

Installation problem
Hi, I have a problem installing Debian 2.2 on my system (P166, 64MB RAM, Adaptec 1542 SCSI board, 4GB SCSI HD and 3,5 IDE GB (win)) : - The first part goes well (both my CD-ROM and CD-Recorder are recognized) and I can install the base system. But after the reboot, the installation procedure loops no ends on the root password setting (I tried many different ones, with caps, no caps, mixing numbers and letters). I tried going on a another console and set a password there. It worked but then it loops on creating a user. I succeded passing this step, but then it loops on scanning the CDs (be it one, two or three) and I can't get to the selection of packages to install. This is a loop story :-( Did someone have this problem, can someone please help ? Another problem is that when configuring lilo, I don't get the choice to install it on hda (only sda /boot or /).

This machine has 98MB of RAM, a 6Gig HD and a 3.5 inch floppy drive. I upgraded the BIOS with the latest Compaq ROMpaq: (version 98.05.20). I have been able to sucessfully install the base system. Since I do not have a CDROM drive, my plan was to configure my PCI Ethernet card, a Linksys 10/100 LAN Card, Model LNE100TX - which uses the tulip driver, so that I could access Debian's packages at http://ftp.debian.org/debian/. Unfortunately, I am unable to get my card to work. I orginally tried (during my initial install of LINUX) to install the tulip driver that came with this Debian release, but an error message resulted saying that the resource was busy. Incidentally, I also tried to install the lp driver for parallel printer support, and I got the same error message. Anyway, I yanked out the card and moved it to the other PCI slot. I tried a full install of linux again, but was greeted with the same error message while trying to install tulip: resource busy...most commonly IO or IRQ conflict...etc. I subsequently hit the HOWTO's on www.linuxdoc.org, where I read through the Ethernet HOWTO. I learned that I should test to see if my card was even being found. I ran dmesg | more and discovered that no eth0 existed. Here is thye full output of dmesg : ---START DMESG--- snip ---END DMESG--- Notice the messages that read (maybe they have something to do with it): PCI: BIOS32 entry (0xc00fa000) in high memory, cannot use. PCI: Using configuration type 1 PCI: Probing PCI hardware I tried to use Compaq's F10 Setup software for the computer to configure the card properly, but to I haven't a clue what I am doing with memory ranges and I/O ranges: The software won't let me choose an I/O range less than 1000 - 10FF. It also won't let me chose a memory range less than 4100 - 410003FF. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY CLUES??? MAYBE A BAZOOKA? I had a similar problem with a compaq 486 prolinea. The problem is that the pci bios is located at a strange place. There is a utility that can relocate the pci bios code down to a place where linux can find it. I can't remember now what it's called but it should be on the compaq web site. I never got mine to work but you might have more luck. The 486 I was using had built in scsi and I couldn't even install the base system (could not find the hard disk). I assume you have to boot to dos, run this utility and then use the dos linux loader to boot into linux. hth jim Thanks in advance, Tim snip

Re: 60 gig drive
Jeff Green writes (Re: 60 gig drive): Assuming it is a scsi drive I know of no problems, we have several raid arrays which Linux sees as single disks. I believe the largest single partition we have in use is 240GB though this now uses ReiserFS as running fsck on an ext2fs partition that size takes a stupidly long time. Well, when I installed my 72 Gig Seagate SCSI drive in my Debian 2.1 system, running Kernel 2.2.10 with an AHA-2940U2W, it *did* take some amount of doing with expert mode in fdisk to get it to install a partition table that actually used all 72 Gig of the drive... But other than that, it's worked just fine. And he's right, fscking a 72 gig ext2fs partition takes *forever*. Heck, just *mounting* it takes almost a minute. -- Richard W Kaszeta PhD.

I had used Redhat with rpm. Where can I find information about package manager on debian? Thanks and sorry for my english! Easyest way to manage the debianpackages is to use the command dselect. Infos about that you can find by typing man dselect or info dselect. To add a package from the list, shown after typing dselect, you need to use this sign : +. With - you delete a package without configurationfiles and with _ it will be removed with its configurationfiles. Alternative way is to use the command dpkg. More about this tool is also readable by typing man dpkg. dpkg -i packagename will work like rpm -i packagename. have a lucky day

If you want to install a single package, use dpkg -i package_file.deb. But if the package needs others packages to install dpkg will give you an error. So don't use this kind of tool. So you have apt-get that deals with dependencies. All you have to do is to put in a file where the system will find the packages (This file is /etc/apt/sources.list) (If you've installed Debian with CDs, the CD lines must be there). Then to install for example wmCalClock : apt-get install wmCalClock If you don't know the names of the package you want to install, have a look at apt-cache. For example apt-cache search mp3 will give you the names of packages that deals with mp3. So have a look at : man apt-get man apt-cache Francois

Re: Trouble installing Debian
My understanding now is that I have a Promise Technology card for an ultra-ATA/66 (IDE) interface, and I need a Linux driver for this card. The ...disks-i386/current/udma66/ directory contains three files, viz.: drivers.tgz install.bat linux but no Readme, so I am a little at a loss. The drivers tarball includes an install.sh script and from puzzling over it and install.bat it seems that the install.bat script is to be run somewhere it can find dosutils; it will create a boot floppy (?) which will apparently run the script to install the kernel modules onto the root filesystem. [Confusion: I have no root filesystem, yet; does it mean a root filesystem on the floppy? But the drivers tarball won't fit on the floppy, etc.] My question is: how do I use the files above with the installation CDs so that the installation program can find the hard drive?

If the latter, you should get a screen prompt for SCSI setup. If not, find your system documentation and find out how to get to this. At some point, you're going to be booting from SCSI and need to have this configured. Besides the information below, Win2K also reports that there is a SCSI controller: Promise Technology Inc Ultra 66 IDE controller (IRQ 09) Ignore what win2k says, it's dumb. You have an IDE controller, not a SCSI one. As I am running 2.2.17, it seems it should be recognized. The readme goes on to give instructions to install the driver from floppy in 26 simple steps.

When I want to write a file I get the error that I want to write on a Read-Only FS. The User IDs are the same. That should not be the problem. The same problem occurs on a Sun Solaris 2.6 (Sparc).

Pine
Hi, I have just installed Debian 2.2 after being a RH user for quite some time. I currently trying to install the pine package which I downloaded from us.debian.org. The commands I issued were dpkg -i pine4-src.1.deb I then changed to the usr/src/pine4 directory (AND READ THE READ ME FILE) issued the commands in the readme file but I get this error msg when I run debian/rules binary install bin/pine debian/tmp/usr/bin install bin/pine No such file or directory Any help would be appreciated...

Re: raid setup
It is quite doable... I suggest you use the latest stable kernel with the raid0.90 patches which can be downloaded from http://people.redhat.com/mingo/raid-patches You will need to use the raidtools2 package instead of raidtools or mdutils. You can put everything on raid1 even root, if you want. For documentation on what to do, look at the docs of the raidtools2 package. Everything is in there in details. I have put together a system following instructions in it. (It is useful to use a third hard drive to put the initial system on, or partition the system according to what you will need to do (you will need a separate partition for the initial system root, and the raid-root partitions will be created later). I will put together a patched version of the install system so that one will be able to install debian into raid1-root directly, and if I succeed, I will post my work.

I would like to setup my debian machine as my file server with two drives, each 20 GB or more. I would like one to mirror the other, either as a raid setup or just copying files that have changed every hour. The idea is not to protect me against stupidity, but against mechanical failure. I use the fileserver mainly for making a large number of images available on the network, and for components of collaborative design projects, also mainly images. A drive failure can set us back days, and I have found tape drives to be useless. Even if they do back everything up, it takes too long to find and restore anything. I'm looking at a couple of cheap Seagate 20 GB drives, I would even consider 3 drives in a parity raid if that was do-able. Any comnments?

Re: Pine
I have not looked in the recent past but have they cleared up the buffer overflow problems with Pine? If not you might be better off with something else. To try and answer the question have you tried apt-get install pine ? Should work like a charm. -- Original Message -- From: Eileen Orbell [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 12 Oct 2000 13:07:10 -0400 Hi, I have just installed Debian 2.2 after being a RH user for quite some time.

Re: Pine
You need to install the pine4-diffs package as well. It contains the patches and the dsc file, as well as the debian-package configuration files. You also will need libc-client4.7 and libc-client4.7-dev, and libncurses5-dev packages. After you have installed both, switch into /usr/src/pine4. Issue: dpkg-source -x *.dsc After that, you can change into ./pine-4.21, and issue: debian/rules binary After it, you will receive the debian packages of pine, pico and pilot in /usr/src/pine4, which you can install.
