Re: Hello Nethelpers [SSH / PUTTY]Strange behaviour with telnetd
Hi, sorry I don’t understand how the mailing list works. Should I reply directly from my mail client : gmail in IE6 ? Or should I do what I do now, reply to my own thread in the list itself ? Anyway you wrote : « which is decoded automatically by the SSH daemon on the Debian side. » How could sshd automatically decode data sent by the PuTTY session If it does not have the key to do it ? I have one ssh manual, 2 ssh howto, the complete sshd man pages, The complete 7000 lines of PuTTY printed documentation, But I can’t find where they deal with having duplicate of the same encrypted key On both client and server. If at any moment the encrypted key travels across the network through the router/bridge, Which has a private ip on the internet, Then a cracker might sniff it. Please be patient, I’m pretty dumb for starters Later it gets worse ;-) Regards,

Generally though, in my experience, a sufficient number of apt-get updates && apt-get dist-upgrades usually works (going from mixed testing/unstable to unstable). There seems to be an effort to move more people to using aptitude and that's probably why its recommended. But if you are familiar with apt-get, I can't see the harm in it. Now, if you've been using aptitude all along, you'll likely lose of the automatic package flagging that aptitude does... ymmv.

Since you have gotten your question onto this email list, you must have access to the web on some other computer than the one you have just purchased. I suggest that you look at www.debian.org all the data that you need to follow the suggestion is available there. And there is a wealth of information on what Debian is, and how to use it. It may seem overwhelming if you are not familiar with Linux, but with help from this email list, you can do what has been suggested. You need to download a file from that web site and 'burn' it onto a CR-rom. Then you need to use that CD-rom to install a new copy of the Debian software onto the computer. You will get a clean new set of software, without personal stuff of the previous owner (his pornographic images, or whatever). Others may chime in on this with better suggestions, but this is a realistic suggestion.

I myself prefer to compile/install the driver-source (--tar.gz) as root in/from the directory /usr/source/alsa directly into the kernel. that works only if you install your kernelheaders and get rid of a small 'lockup-file' within lib/modules/kernel &&. install as root alsa-libs and alsa-utils as well. on this way I got a - really good!- sound immediately out of my soundblaster-card. the on_board intel8x0 sound chip seems to confuse, when turned on *together* with the soundblaster_card, my audio_programs. that 's the reason i turned it off. I think I would make it a module, perhaps because compiling it into the kernel seems to be to difficult for me, but ... by the way: did you put snd-ca0106 in /etc/modules ? no, I will do so, and reboot. Now I have output. White noise. When there is sound output (for example from xmms) there is white noise in the speakers. That is, if I un-check SPDIF-Out in GNOME-alsamixer. It points in the direction of compiling a new driver. Is there somewhere a guide to do that? ...yes, there is. look for the driver_page on the alsa_website. as i remember well, it is easy to find a detailed instruction how to build a new driver into your [etch_]kernel. i have two hd's on my [simple] machine. one production_hd with stable and one experimental hd with unstable; the last for fun and out of curiosity. before this i 'ran' etch a certain time and i never was quite content with the 2.6.15 (?) kernel, with gave on my machine some hardware_problems with the sound_output. so i dist_upgraded to unstable and installed kernel 2.6.16; and all troubles were gone. so it *could* be some hardware incompatability. in your place i should start to try to install as root the alsa-driver into the kernel-modules which might seem scaring but is rather standard because alsa does much of the work for you. alsa version 1.0.11 contains updated, good working ca0106_software. under *etch* as i remember well, the bug in the *debian*-version of the alsa_ca0106_chip was not yet repaired. i should combine this with installing the alsa-libs and the alsa-utils of the same alsa-version, 1.0.11 (the last). i guess you might want to try this out yourself. if not, i am, of course, if you wish so, prepaired to write to you the exact procedure i followed to get my soundblaster_card in working order. this last work i can do tomorrow-evening, because we are on a trip the rest of the day. hope this is of some help, good luck! steef -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

POSIX ACLs on Debian
Hi all, I would like to implement POSIX ACLs on a Debian server. The partition is formatted with ReiserFS. I am using the default 2.4 kernel in 3.1r2 (2.4.27-2-386) I understand that POSIX ACLs were introduced with 2.6 kernels. I see that Debian most likely patched the 2.4 kernel for POSIX ACLs # cat /boot/config-2.4.27-2-386 | grep POSIX CONFIG_EXT3_FS_POSIX_ACL=y CONFIG_EXT2_FS_POSIX_ACL=y CONFIG_XFS_POSIX_ACL=y CONFIG_FS_POSIX_ACL=y But ReiserFS seems to be missing. Can I get it to work with that 2.4 kernel?? Or can I install a ReiserFS/POSIX ACLs enabled kernel without having to compile anything? Thanks for your help.

Re: [OT]laptop memory and slot
My wife has a 600m from Dell, if the memory slot is going out, I would advise you to run memtest 86 to check the memory. I would also advise you to run the Dell diagnostics as your haddrive might need to be checked as well. Just for your information my wife's 600m is on it's third motherboard. For some reason they like to overheat and fail if you do any massive calculations on them. I can not even run RC5-72 as it tasks the cpu and overheats the board. I would also be careful as that could be a sign of a failing motherboard. I would hate to have you buy a stick of memory and then in a week or two have the board fail. As regarding your memory, any good stick should be able to down clock, so if you have a good stick of pc 2700 it should be able to run at pc 2100 levels. I would stay away from no name memory, as this could make you have even more problems. If it were me I would not even bother with the upgrade as I believe your motherboard is on shakey ground as it is. If you have an extended warranty I would use it. I would also check the harddrive and check if you have excessive heat coming from the ports on the back. When all my motherboards failed, the ports on the back would get very hot almost to burning to the touch, then it would cook the harddrive, as it's slot is above the board and takes tremendous heat as it is. Also I would check your batteries as some were recalled for excessive heat build up. I would consider the 600m a suppar notebook, sure it has the nice battery life when new as well as the Pentium M chip, but it's a lemon. I would hate to see someone put even more money into it, if it shows signs of failing. Gnu_Raiz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

I bought some memory from them last summer and was very satisfied. --John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Deephay said that he copied his /etc/fstab file from another machine, though.

It would certainly have been possible to boot from the LiveCD, but using the hard disk's root partition.
