 No sé, pero parece que no le has dicho el dominio por alguna

En algun sitio de la documentacion de sendmail, creo que en la FAQ, viene
descrito este error, creo recordar que es porque es incapaz de saber cual es
el dominio de la maquina en la que esta corriendo, y creo que venian
posibles formas de solucionarlo. Estoy hablando de memoria, pero creo que

Ver descripciones de los paquetes debian.

2000-11-14 Thread Antonio Iglesias

Hola Gente.

Una pregunta:
¿Existe alguna utilidad para visualizar los paquetes debian
medianamente organizados, con sus descripciones y con alguna
utilidad de búsqueda?

Conozco dselect y lo utilizo con frecuencia, pero con la cantidad
de paquetes que trae potato, a veces resulta difil buscar algo
que no sabes exactamente como se llama o solo tienes una idea
de lo que hace. Muchas veces he tenido que echar mano de 
Packages y grep, pero si andas con prisa es un poco engorroso.
Las páginas de debian vienen muy bien para eso, pero es que
en casa no tengo inte'nes.

Os agradezco de antemano vuestras sugerencias.

Antonio Iglesias.

Hola..
  El propio apt tienes esas funciones, con 'apt-cache search' puedes
ver el nombre del paquete y una breve descripción, y con  'apt-cache
search --full' lo ves todo; y para buscar nada mejor que un 'grep'.
  Yo suelo buscar e instalar muchas cosas, casi continuamente y tengo

Re: squid

2000-11-14 Thread Hue-Bond
El lunes 13 de noviembre de 2000 a la(s) 16:20:46 +0100, Jaume Sabater contaba:

¿Alguien sabe porque el squid se me muere de vez en cuando, dejándome ese
mensaje en access.log?

FATAL: You've run out of swap file numbers.

 RTFM:

--
11.25 You've run out of swap file numbers.

   Squid keeps an in-memory bitmap of disk files that are available for use,
 or are being used. The size of this bitmap is determined at run name,
 based on two
   things: the size of your cache, and the average (mean) cache object size.

   The size of your cache is specified in squid.conf, on the cache_dir
 lines. The mean object size can also be specified in squid.conf, with
 the
   'store_avg_object_size' directive. By default, Squid uses 13 Kbytes as
 the average size.

   When allocating the bitmaps, Squid allocates this many bits:
2 * cache_size / store_avg_object_size
   
   So, if you exactly specify the correct average object size, Squid should
 have 50% filemap bits free when the cache is full. You can see how many
 filemap
   bits are being used by looking at the 'storedir' cache manager page. It
 looks like this:

Store Directory #0: /usr/local/squid/cache
First level subdirectories: 4
Second level subdirectories: 4
Maximum Size: 1024000 KB
Current Size: 924837 KB
Percent Used: 90.32%
Filemap bits in use: 77308 of 157538 (49%)
Flags:

   Now, if you see the ``You've run out of swap file numbers'' message, then
 it means one of two things:
1. You've found a Squid bug.
2. Your cache's average file size is much smaller than the
 'store_avg_object_size' value.

   To check the average file size of object currently in your cache, look at
 the cache manager 'info' page, and you will find a line like:
Mean Object Size:   11.96 KB

   To make the warning message go away, set 'store_avg_object_size' to that
 value (or lower) and then restart Squid.

HOWTO-Burn The Ultimate guide:

Dos clases de utilidades:
Hardware Drivers: e.g., cdwrite, cdrecord, cdrdao.
Data Formaters: Ponen un filesystem en el media. e.g., mkisofs, mkhybrid, 
mkvcdfs.
 Algunos filesystems de los CDs:
- ISO9660
- RockRidge
- El Torito (los primeros 1.44|2.88 MB del CD contienen una imagen de un
  floppy, que es como lo ve el BIOS del PC).
- HFS (Native filesystem de la MAC).
- Joliet (WinKrap).
- Video-CD (Para verlos en DVDs)


Just Practical Stuff.
Case: Philips Modelo:
Interface: IDE-ATAPI


1.- Asegurate de tener bien configurado el CD-RW

   En /etc/lilo.conf
   append='hd[x]=ide-scsi' # Para que lo deje libre el driver atapi

   Cargados los modulos:
   # modprobe ide-scsi
   # modprobe sg

   Checar todo con CD-Record:
   # cdrecord -scanbus

2.- Preparar una imagen.

   En el caso de una multisession:
   # mkisofs -v -a -r -T -o desired_name_for_*.iso   \
 -C cdrecord -msinfo dev=x,x,x -M /dev/scd0   \
 lo que desees quemar

   Si no va a ser multisession omite los argumentos -C y -M.

   Si no vas a hacer imagen (por que ya la tienes ir al punto 4).


3.- Probar la imagen.

Si es Multisesion repetir el paso 2, excepto por los parametros -o -C:
-o otroNameDlaMismaImagenIso -C 0,0
# mount -t iso9660 -o loop,ro imagen.iso2 punto_de_montaje_deseado
# ls -la /punto_de_montaje_deseado
# umount /punto_de_montaje_deseado


4.- Quemar la imagen con cdrecord:
If you want graphical stuff:
http://sites.inka.de/~W1752/cdrecord/frontend.html
http://linuxberg.vegasys.net/x11html/sys_cdr.html

   # cdrecord -v speed=?X fs=8 dev=cdrecord -scanbus -eject -multi   \
  Imagen_*.iso

   Si va a ser la ultima sesion de ese CD no pongas la opcion -multi



MOTA: que diga, NOTA:
en linuxdoc.org en el CD-Writing-HOWTO se menciona que en caso de que se cargue
el soporte para el CD-ROM dinamicamente, se puede hacer esto en
/etc/conf.modules:

pre-install sg modprobe ide-scsi
pre-install sr_mod modprobe ide-scsi
alias scd0 sr_mod



Case: HP7200e
Interface: LPT


1.- Tener soporte en el Kernel:

Section   Description  Module  What to answer
---   ---  --  --
PARIDE Parallel port IDE deviceparide   Y/M
PARIDE Parallel port ATAPI CD-ROMs   M
PARIDE Parallel port generic ATAPI   M
PARIDE (select a low-level driver)   Y

2.- Poner el el BIOS el Puerto Paralello a EPP.

3.- Cargar los modulos necesarios;

El base:
% modprobe paride

Low-level protocol driver:
% modprobe epat

High-level protocol driver:
% insmod pg driver0=0x370,0,-1,-1,0
(see /usr/src/linux/drivers/block/paride/pg.c)

4.- Checar todo con:
% cdrecord -scanbus

Elias /net, no final. Peço, então, a instalação de rede. Depois, como

Elias, não sei se é o da PC Master (eu nunca guardo o nome dessas
revistas mesmo), mas o que eu fiz foi: converti o pacote RPM para DEB
com o 'alien', instalei-o (como 'root'), rodei o programa
/opt/office52/program/setup (com meu nome de usuário) e pronto. Ele
cria um diretório $HOME/office52 embaixo do qual está o script
'soffice' que é o que Vc deve rodar.

Emulador de terminal

Caros colegas,
Alguém conhece um emulador de terminal, de preferencia para consola, com
mapeamento de teclado.
Mais precisamente, pretendo emular um terminal VT100 (teclas PFxx, etc.)
de modo a poder aceder , a partir de um equipamento linux, a uma base de
dados Oracle numa workstation SUN ENTERPRISE.
Procuro algo semelhante ao Refletion 2.0 para Windows.
Agradeço desda já. Cumprimentos.



Prazos ?????

2000-11-14 Thread Renatinha
Amores..

Tá certo que é tudo voluntário  e tal.. O prazo que eu dei era apenas
para a resposta do email.. para dizer como estão as coisas. Para
podermos saber quem está levando a sério ou quem abandonou o projeto.
É muito importante temos prazos sim e cobrarmos das pessoas que se
responsabilizaram pelas traduções!! Quer saber o motivo Existe várias
outras pessoas querendo e com tempo para traduzir também.
O fato é: O que falta traduzir já está nas mãos de certas pessoas.. ótimo!
tem gente que já está quase terminando...
Mas e os outros que não responderam o email que eu mandei perguntando como
andam as coisas?? Vocês acham justo esperarmos pela boa vontade desses até
quando?? Sexta -feira não é um bom prazo?? Ou querem esperar até ano que
vem.. Enquanto várias outras pessoas com vontade e disposição ficam sem
poder ajudar

Pensem nisso.. Não estou dando prazo para a entrega das traduções, quero
somente saber como tudo está para poder re-distribuir as funções e para que
o projeto ande mais rápido.
Seria muito interessante terminarmos tudo antes do fim do ano.. Isso não é
uma cobrança, é uma sugestão!

Isso foi um belo de um mal entendido!!
Tudo voluntário e sim, mas com responsábilidade também!!
Não adianta dizer que vai fazer e depois sumir.. :o))

Um beijo!

Grande Debian Girl, voce dah uma bela lider hehehe =)

Ok =)

desculpe pelo mal entendido... mas mesmo esse prazo eu naum concordo muito,
sei que o projeto deve andar e concordo que quem naum tah levando a serio
ou algo assim deve passar o token pra outra pessoa... mas e se alguem
teve de viajar essa semana e naum puder ler mail ou algo assim??

eu por exemplo, nesse fim de semana soh pude ler mail 1 vez e mesmo assim
pq fui muito animado de chegar em casa 1 e meia da manha e dormir as 2
pra acordar as 7 no outro dia!!

Vamo pensar direitinho... eu tinha pedido os mails dos tradutores pra eu poder
entrar em contato e checar... eu acho q de semana em semana os tradutores
deveriam mandar um tipo de relatorio de traducao pra nos sabermos como
estao andando as coisas... hj eu naum traduzi nada pq tava atualizando umas
coisas na minha page... e de noite minha girl vem aih =)

mas acho q mesmo assim vai dar pra traduzir alguma coisa...

Manutencao de prazos / colaboracao com a LDP/BR

2000-11-14 Thread Marcus Brito
 Entao facamos assim, nao organizaremos nada, que fique tudo como esta, e
 viva a liberdade sem responsabilidade!!!

 Ou que alguem comece um projeto paralelo, que vai andar bem mais rapido, com
 certeza! :o)

Ola Renata, e ao povo da Debian-BR

Com certeza nao e a primeira vez que alguem cogita isso, mas porque nao nos
juntarmos ao esforco LDP-BR? A bem da verdade, a mudanca seria quase
imperceptivel... com a diferenca de que passariamos a usar os recursos (listas
de discussao, maquinas, etc) da LDP-BR.

Podemos fazer do Debian-BR um projeto da LDP, assim como o projeto de traducao
do Gnome ou do KDE. Cada projeto desses tem um coordenador, que reporta ao
coordenador da LDP. A Renata pode continuar na posicao atual.

Bom, este foi o offtopic. Agora, voltando ao assunto:

Trabalho voluntario nao significa necessariamente trabalho sem gerencia, ou
trabalho desorganizado. No momento que voce se levanta como voluntario do
projeto, voce tem que passar a encara-lo como uma de suas responsabilidades.
Se voce nao eh capaz disso, nao deveria ter se voluntariado. Nao eh porque
voce nao esta senda pago que voce nao tenha que fazer.

A Renata esta com toda a razao da cobranca. Ela tem estado ate mesmo mais
permissiva do que o ideal. Esse momento de 'crise' pode ser uma boa hora de
parar e refletir se voce realmente esta querendo sacrificar seu tempo para
contribuir com a comunidade (isto sim eh voluntariedade), ou apenas ta afim de
traduzir uma coisa ou outra quando nao tiver nada melhor pra fazer.

acredito que a organização das traduções é algo que efetivamente 
deva acontecer; a coordenação desta tarefa, inclusive, tem estes
percalços - ouvir várias opiniões contrárias e conviver com 
elas, alinhando os 'vetores' que na mesma direção e sentido, 
ou pelo menos as componentes deles :-)

concordo com o Maçan que o nosso projeto é algo separado da LDP-BR.

meu voto é pela manutenção do prazo e pela força tarefa para o

Re: Star Office no potato

2000-11-14 Thread Hélio Alexandre Lopes Loureiro
 Eu já instalei tb várias vezes, com suceso, usando o pacote genérico (não o
 .rpm) e mandando instalar em /usr/local/algumacoisa. Embora fique fora do
 esquema de controle de arquivos do debian, não vejo problemas, pois quando
 sair o 5.3 (6.0?) provavelmente vou querer os dois no sistema simultaneamente
 por algum tempo, e nesse caso ter usado um .deb para instalar pode atrapalhar.
Neste ponto não vejo porque não instalar abaixo da hierarquia do
/usr/local.  Os BSDs todos usam esta hierarquia para programas que não
fazem parte da distribuição (via ports).  Talvez o /usr/share fosse mais
coerente para utilizar numa rede com servidor via nfs (ou ldap), mas até
que as distribuições parem de fazer uso do /usr/lib, acho que não tem
problema usar o /usr/local.

As you have suggested, DO NOT RUN IT.  It is worm that targets idiots
who run Windows.  Note: not all idiots run windows, and not all who run
windows are idiots.  But all who run windows and execute NAVIDAD.EXE are
idiots.  Obviously there is at least one subscriber to the Debian-user
list who meets this idiot criteria.  I just hope the complaining
servers stop battling soon.  This is getting annoying.

The following is the alert I received about this from McAfee:

  *** VIRUS ALERT - W32/[EMAIL PROTECTED] 
 

Dear McAfee.com Dispatch Subscriber: 

W32/[EMAIL PROTECTED] is an Internet worm that spreads using the 
Windows email program Outlook. McAfee AVERT has given it a 
risk assessment of MEDIUM-ON WATCH, due to a significant 
increase in infection levels worldwide. 

The email can come from addresses that you will recognize. 
Attached is a file named NAVIDAD.EXE and when it is run, it 
displays a dialog box entitled, Error which reads UI. A 
blue eye icon then appears in the system tray next to the 
clock in the lower right corner of the screen, and a copy of 
the worm is saved to the file winsvrc.vxd in the WINDOWS 
SYSTEM directory. 

If your PC becomes infected with the W32/[EMAIL PROTECTED] worm, all 
subsequent emails addressed to you will be responded to 
automatically with an email from your address with the 
W32/[EMAIL PROTECTED] worm as an attachment.

Intel victim of pesky pre-Chrimbo computer virus
By: Linda Harrison in New York
Posted: 10/11/2000 at 21:09 GMT

Intel has fallen victim to a pesky new computer virus believed to be from South 
America. 

The Navidad virus is not particularly dangerous, just annoying, say security 
experts. It affects computers using Windows operating system, and arrives as a 
reply message when a user sends an email to an infected computer. 

The email comes with an attachment called Navidad.exe - if opened this 
contains a message in Spanish that reads: Never press this button. If the 
user can't resist and presses it anyway, a message pops up saying: Feliz 
Navidad. Unfortunately you have given in to temptation and will lose your 
computer. 

The user's computer isn't damaged, according to AP, largely because the virus 
is believed to be designed for the Spanish version of Windows. But it does 
place an icon on the computer that looks like an eye and stops most programs 
from being run. 

The program can be stopped manually, and several antivirus companies have come 
up with software that removes or protects against it. 

But security experts are warning emailers to watch out for the virus because it 
is spreading quickly around big corporations - at least ten Fortune 500 
companies have been hit, with many of the infected emails coming from Brazil 
and Cuba. One security expert told AP that Navidad had already caused 
pre-Christmas headaches for chip giant Intel and petrol company ExxonMobil. ®

It's the latest Windows virus.  If you take a look, you'll see that one
person sent out a couple dozen messages just before all the virus warnings
came flooding in; it seems safe to assume that he's the one who's infected.

There appear to be two separate mail servers responding to the threat with
warnings, but sending them to the list rather than the originator.  Whether
this indicates that they're broken (sending _you_ are infected messages to
the list instead of to the sender of the infected message) or not (they're
warning everyone else on the list about the threat) is a matter of personal
opinion.

I don't know who it is but I've already caught the stupid virus.  I'm
not using Outlook, but being the fool that I am, I accidently ran his
attachment, and it screwed up the file associations in Windows. 
Basically it associates .exe files with a nonexistant program so that
when you try to run a program it won't work.  I had to reinstall
Windows.  I didn't lose anything, but it was a pain in the arse and a
waste of 45 minutes of my time.  Geez.

there is a pkg_delete utility which will allow you to delete any of
these listed packages, i've used it and it does work quite well, just
as well as apt-get --purge remove.  all of the above are installed
from the ports collection.

 with freebsd is that the dependencies aren't handled nearly as well as
 debian handles them.

hmm, well when i went to compile emacs it knew that it would need
autoconf and gmake and went ahead and compiled and installed them.

 and if you want to compile them there's always 'apt-get --compile source
 packagename'.  if you haven't used it before here's how it works :)

with the annoying side affect of apt insisting on replacing the
locally compiled packages with the debian binary version...  unless
you never use apt-get upgrade again or put everything on hold, which

On my system, i usually bump the version number of the package up by
.0001 before i recompile (then again, i usually only recompile to fix a
bug ;)

If you put the locally compiled package into an apt source before any of
the official Debian mirrors, it will keep your version instead of
Debian's as long as the version numbers remain equal. For example, i
have this at the top of my sources.list:
  deb file:/usr/local/debs /

Well one might think that all the work people went to to develop MIME

Attachments of themselves aren't evil.  Mailers doing things with them
in such a way as to spawn uncontrolled interference with others is.
