Debian French localisation team completes the translation of debconf screens

2007-03-03 Thread Christian Perrier
(crossposted to several mailing lists. Please respect the Reply-To field)

As of March 3rd 2007, all packages in Debian unstable that have
translatable debconf templates are translated into French [1].

This is the result of a continuous effort in the last years and
particularly the last 4.5 years, since the upload of po-debconf back
in September 2002 by Denis Barbier which enabled translators to use
gettext to handle debconf translations.

This achievement, combined with the translation of the Debian
Installer, is the guarantee that even a complete installation of a
Debian system with all possible packages, when run in French, will
only show French-speaking prompts to the user.

That effort is also ongoing for several other languages [2], thanks to
the commitment of the numerous contributors from the Debian
internationalisation community [3].

All thanks and credits for the achievement of the French localisation
are due to the French translators [5] as well as all Debian package
maintainers who have regularly fixed the dozens of bug reports sent
by translators over the years.

A last effort will now target the 100% mark for packages in
testing. The current status, as of [4], is 99.2%.

Bonjour Michelle

Regarde peut-être chez nordnet , des forfaits en RTC ou RNIS . J'ai
cherché un peu par curiosité et je n'ai pas vu chez eux que l'on devait
toujours appelé du même numéro ( à vérifier quand même , je ne suis pas
aboné chez eux ) , mais leur règlement interdit les connexion multiples
( donc simultanées mais de différents numéros ) :

**

Chaque client dispose d'un accès personnalisé et par conséquent il doit 
être seul à l'utiliser. Dans ces conditions, il n’est autorisé qu’une 
seule connexion à la fois par Identifiant. Sauf dérogation écrite et 
préalable, il est donc interdit d'établir plusieurs connexions 
simultanées avec les mêmes Identifiants.


On définit la connexion simultanée comme, soit l'utilisation des mêmes 
éléments d'identification sur plusieurs lignes distinctes au même moment 
et/ou à des intervalles de temps se chevauchant pour établir la 
connexion d'au moins deux (2) ordinateurs, soit l'utilisation de plus de 
un (1) canal B Numéris, soit l'utilisation de toute technique présente 
ou à venir permettant de lancer plus d'une connexion physique à la fois. 
Toute consommation constatée dans ce cadre entraînera la facturation à 
l'heure de toutes les communications pendant la durée de l'infraction 
constatée en plus du forfait applicable. Le tarif appliqué sera de 2,70 
euros l'heure, toute heure commencée étant due. De plus, NordNet pourra 
suspendre Votre accès au Service.


***

À creuser donc . . .

 Voici grossièrement comme se passe la séquence de boot :
  - le boot  loader est chargé par  le BIOS (c'est lui qui  est dans le
MBR,  pas  le  noyau  !)  et  il  se  débrouille  pour  se  charger
entièrement
  - il charge le noyau avec l'aide du BIOS (donc il peut le lire sur le
disque)
  - le noyau prend  la main sur le BIOS et il  n'est donc plus possible
de lire le disque à cette étape
  - la partition racine est montée et l'utilitaire init est exécuté
 
 Pour monter  la partition racine, il  faut pouvoir lire  le disque, le
 noyau doit donc contenir de  quoi lire le disque (support des disques)
 et le système de fichier qui est dessus. Si tu as un chipset Intel, il
 faut donc coller  le support de celui-ci en dur dans  le noyau (pas en
 module).
 
 On rencontre là  le premier problème qui concerne  les distributions :
 comment faire un noyau qui  fonctionne partout ? Avec mon scénario, il
 faut tout mettre en dur dans le  noyau, ce qui fait un noyau énorme et
 plein de choses inutiles chargées en mémoire.
 
 C'est là  qu'intervient l'initrd. Au lieu  de monter la  racine, on va
 monter  une image  disque qui  a été  chargée en  mémoire par  le boot
 loader en même  temps que le noyau. Cette image  disque va détecter le
 matos présent  sur ta  machine et charger  ce qu'il faut  pour pouvoir
 monter ensuite la véritable racine.
 
 À ce niveau, si tu compiles ton noyau toi même, tu n'as absolument pas
 besoin d'initrd, y compris avec des disques SCSI. Il te suffit dans ce
 cas de  compiler le support du SCSI,  des disques SCSI et  de ta carte
 SCSI en dur dans le noyau. Sans oublier le système de fichiers.
 
 Il  existe  cependant  des cas  où  tu  dois  quand même  utiliser  un
 initrd. Par exemple, si ta  partition racine est chiffrée, l'initrd se
 chargera de la déchiffrer car le noyau ne sait pas le faire tout seul.

Ok, ça s'éclaircit gentillement. Je vais encore relire une ou deux fois
et ça devrait jouer!

Merci beaucoup!

Re: en-t?te de fichier

-[ Sat, Mar 03, 2007 at 04:07:34PM +0100, philippe L ]
 Où sont stockés les informations telles que nom de fichier, date de
 création, date de motif, etc ...

Cela dépend du système de fichier.
Traditionnellement sous Unix : dans l'inode.
L'inode est un bloc qui contient ce genre d'informations ainsi que des
pointeurs vers les blocs de donnée du fichier.
Et oui, c'est codé en représentation compacte (binaire).

Il y a un appel système pour lire ces informations, mappé sur la
fonction stat() de la libC, et par ricochet accessible dans la plupart
des langages de programmation jusqu'au shell :

man 1 stat
man 2 stat
man 3 stat
man perlfunc - chercher stat

etc...

Note: l'inode ne contient pas le nom du fichier. Ca peut surprendre,
mais les fichiers n'ont pas de nom - ce sont les entrées dans les
répertoires qui ont des noms (Un répertoire, c'est une liste de noms et
de pointeurs vers les inodes).

Programmation en langage C

Non.


- libc6-dev
- libc6.1-dbg
- gcc-4.0 ou gcc-4.1


Plutôt build-essential, comme je l'ai indiqué.


- anjunta


Question de goût. Pour moi, le meilleur IDE est emacs.


Je ne connais pas le langage C, l'utilisation du langage (les
librairies) risque-t-il de perturber mon système
(bureau,applications,serviceau réseau).


Le mieux est de ne pas compiler en étant root :-)


Merci si l'un de vous connais un manuel progressif et pédagogique,


Dans quel but utiliser C ? Si c'est parce que le prof l'a dit, c'est à
lui de suggérer un manuel. Si c'est pour apprendre la programmation,
commencer par C est une drôle d'idée. Python, Haskell, Java ou bien
d'autres seraient sans doute plus adaptés.



Lorsque j'essaye d'installer les paquets ci-dessus par la commande apt-get

libc6-dev, libc6.1-dbg, gcc-4.0 n'existent pas.
J'ai été voir sur le site de Debian, les deux premiers paquets existent

Faut donc  filer le mail  à machine1 qui  le filera à machine2  qui le

Rhythmbox + OGG

2007-03-03 Thread debian
Hola Comunidad,

por estos dias he intentado escuchar radios en linea en formato OGG con 
cualquier programa (Amarok,
BMPx, Rhythmbox, Exile, Listen...) pero no lo he conseguido.

Hasta ahora he instalado casi todos los plugins gstreamer un monton de 
librerias que tienen relacion
con codificacion y decodificacion de ogg, etc.

Y como supongo, que no todos los programas dependen de las mismas librerias o 
plugins... me entra la
sospecha, que quizas haya un error de instalacion/configuracion en mi sistema.

Como no se por donde atacar el problema, os pido ayuda.

Salu2
XxX

 Primero los formatee a los dos y posteriormente hice lo siguiente...
 En el disco duro esclavo instale windows xp home edition, pero me
 pedia que en el disco duro maestro se tenia que escribir información
 par que pudiera arrancar el sistema, entonces le hice una particion de
 10Mb en el disco maestro con sistema de archivos fat32. Posteriormente
 se instalo windows en el esclavo. Cuando reinicie la computadora, todo
 funcionaba, pero algo lento al acceder a las cosas y carpetas, a
 comparación cuando sólo tenia un disco duro. 
 
 Despúes que instale windows xp, procedi a instalar ubuntu edgy en el
 disco maestro, primero le hice una particion de 15 Gb para el sistema
 base y 1Gb para swat en el disco maestro, aunado a la particion fat32
 de 10mb. 
 
 Cuando reinicie la computadora todo funcionaba bien Posteriormente
 procedi a instalar Fedora Core 5...
 En el espacio libre del disco duro maestro (23 GB aprox) procedi a
 instalar Fedora...todo bien, cuando la reinicie, solo aparecia Fedora

 particion de ubuntu edgy, para copiar lo que tenia el

Bueno, ya lo solucioné, era un error de lo más tonto, que son los más
difíciles de encontrar. Al final tenía que cambiar una línea en el
Makefine.am que esta en src/exe. La línea que estaba mal era la que ponía:

Había que poner:

Con este cambio todo funcionó a la perfección.

Re: Apache, DocumentRoot y desciendo en el arbol de directorios.

2007-03-03 Thread Juan Pablo Romero Bernal

Saludos,


Estimados, me ha entrado una duda... si tengo configurado el parámetro
DocumentRoot de apache con, por ejemplo, /var/www/computacion, sería
posible descender en el arbol de directorios y acceder, por ejemplo, a
archivos que estén en / (la raiz)?


Hasta donde yo sé, en el caso que expones sólo aquello que se encuentre
bajo /var/www/computacion será accesible via web (siempre y cuando los
permisos los permitan). Ascender en la estructura de directorios no es
posible, por lo menos via Web (protocolo HTTP), a  menos que exista un
VirtualHost o un Alias que lo permita hacer.



Es que cada usuario tiene una carpeta llamada public_html en su home y
empezaremos a usar esa carpeta para que puedan hacer sus páginas Web.
Asi que no se verán págnas que estén en /home/pepe/, por ejemplo.


Como te digo, hasta donde yo sé no es posible. Sin embargo revisa el sitio de
Apache acerca de posibles vulnerabilidades.


Saludos y que Dios nos bendiga!!!

Re: OPENVPN - Problema ao resolver nome das mauqinas

2007-03-03 Thread Gustavo Carvalho

Realmente esta com um conceito errado sobre esta bridge. Agora ficou bem
claro.
Solucionando esta ultima duvida tudo fica mais facil.

Segui o manual do openVPN:

Tenho as interfaces
eth0: 192.168.1.2   - Interface ligada ao router 3COM - Uada para acesso a
internet
eth1: 10.1.0.1 - IP da minha rede local.
eth2: Utilizada como DHCP e esta ligada ao MODEM ADSL.
ppp0: Conexão estabelecida com a ADSL

Bom, a bridge que tenho que levantar, deve ser levantada com eth1 ou eth2.
Fiz o teste seguindo o link que vc me passou.
Quando eu levanto com ETH1 rede local. Ele levanta br0 mas o endereço IP
10.1.0.1 que esta configurado na eth1 some.

Minha duvida final seria essa.
Se eu levanto com a iterface da rede local(eth1), ou levanto com a interface
que esta ligado o velox(eth2).

Em anexo a reposta do ifconfig em dois momentos.

Prezado Pedro,


eu já utilizei o prelude, mas atualmente tenho mais familiaridade com
o snort, e acredito que ele tb tenha uma base de usuários maior.

O prelude é muito flexível e pode, inclusive, usar o snort como um
sensor. Enfim, não posso lhe ajudar muito, mas desejo boa sorte. E qd
concluir o seu trabalho, por favor divulgue aqui na lista.

Eu tenho algumas apresentações que podem lhe ser úteis, se quiser,

 Olá pessoal,

Oi Pedro,

 
 Ele já reconheceu o modem, atribuiu o ip para o pc, e encontrou um roteador.
 Executei o pppoeconf para configurar o usuario e senha, porém ainda não quer
 navegar. O DNS foi trazido automaticamente mas qdo pingo nos endereços não tá

Se vc pingar os IPs, ao invés dos URLs, responde? Tente pingar os DNS do seu
provedor ou esse: 200.195.159.66 (esse é o DNS da Copelnet). Se responder vc
está na rede e é só um problema de DNS.

Se não responder, faça o teste de trás pra frente: ping o IP do seu modem (no
DSL500B acredito ser 10.1.1.1 o default). Se não pingar, vc tem algum problema
de conexão interna aí, configuração do modem/placa de rede/etc. Se pingar,
tente pingar o gateway do modem (o que gateway que o provedor fornece). Se não
pingar o gateway do provedor, então vc tem um problema na sua linha ou na
interface Wan do seu modem. Se pingar o gateway do provedor e não pingar o DNS
do provedor, então tem problema no provedor. Se pingar o gateway e o DNS do
provedor, vc está na internet (claro que isso não é inteiramente verdade, mas é
99% de certeza), e aí você tem um problema de DNS.

  I would like to switch to something a little more ambitious where I
  would be able to generate my docs in the usual popular formats, namely
  pdf, html, ps, txt, and possibly dvi.

snip

  I asked something similar a couple of months ago and the concensus was
  either LaTex or DocBook.
 
 No, LaTex or DocBook would be too much over kill for simple documentation,
 though I'm very found of LaTex myself. 

You're right, but it's difficult to resist learning at least the basics
of LaTeX and DocBook.

The risk, naturally, is that trying to kill two birds with one stone I
might miss both (writing the doc and learning the documentation tools)
.. and end up empty-handed.

 Check out AsciiDoc.

 Would something like this (AsciiDoc sample output)
 http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/misc/ce01-DarkBackgroundIsGoodForYou/
 be good enough? It fulfills all your requirement, but is even more simpler.

Definitely.  I would add that due to their complexity, achieving the
same quality going down the LaTeX or the DocBook toolchains is probably not
going to be trivial.

A more subtle risk is possibly that considering that these two are such
large complex products and that since I lack the technical proficiency
(and likely the time to acquire it) .. I may have to stick to a such a
small subset of their respective capabilities that I would end up
limiting myself as a writer.  What I mean is that for instance, I
might want to present a given topic in a certain way but end up doing
differently only  because I'd start thinking that it would take me days
(or weeks..) to figure out how to do it.

 If you don't believe that everything behind it was just plain text, check 
 out the 
 
 AsciiDoc Markup Syntax Quick Summary
 http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/nix/asciidoc-syn/ascs01-AsciiDocMarkupSyntaxQuickSummary/

Actually, in my setup at least, the Dark Background document looks
absolutely great in a text browser such as elinks.

:-)

Maybe another concern of mine is that LaTeX and DocBook are technologies
that won't go away any time soon.. And this guarantees that both the
time I spend rewriting my .txt documents in either of these, and the
time spent acquiring some fluency using them is not entirely wasted.  
 
Right now, my preference would probably be DocBook over LaTeX since it
clearly separates content and formatting.  In my case it's not just a
matter of DocBook doing the right thing.  An additional incentive is
that as long as I can find suitable stylesheets, I only need to become
fluent with a dozen or so xml tags to get started and the transformation
tools will take care of everything else for me.

I also saw somewhere that there seems to exist a simplified version of
DocBook. I know nothing about its current status, but I should probably
take a look and see it might do anything for me ..

Lastly, I'm also curious of DocBook's capabilities as far as providing a
framework that might (?) help locate information in what would amount to
a documentation database.  Here again, recursive grep's of my text
files usually works where my personal docs are concerned .. but in terms
of concept, it's clearly not a very satisfying approach.

Maybe I'm more interested in documentation technology than the drudgery
of writing and maintaining documents.

:-)

In any case, thanks much for your comments.

Thanks,
cga

I have never said using iptables was the best solution, however, I think the 
understanding of netfilter/iptables might help. It is up to everyone to choose 
whether they want to get a better understanding of what they are doing, or not. 
He may not need to bother with all that.
Anyway, iptables, fwbuilder, shorewall and ohters have their own advantages and 
drawbacks.

Wired and wireless PCMCIA LAN cards: configuration problems

2007-03-03 Thread Ken Heard

I have a Toshiba Tecra 8000 P2 laptop first with Sarge and now with Etgh
 installed, plus KDE.  Normally, I am in Toronto, where for some time I
have been using a D-Link 10/100 mb LAN + 56k FAX/modem PCMCIA for a
wired RJ-45 connection from the laptop to my home LAN and beyond.

However, I am now in Chiang Mai, Thailand, for the next five weeks.
The LAN in the building where I have rented a condo only has wireless
for the individual units.

Consequently, for the duration I wanted to replace the aforementioned
D-Link card with a wireless PCMCIA card (SMC model 2853W 802.11g, 2.4
gH, 54 mbps).  Unfortunately, I have so far been unable to connect my
laptop to the wireless LAN in the building.  What I did to try to
establish a connection follows.

Right after booting the laptop with that PC card installed, I opened the
KDE KWiFiManager.  By means of a laptop icon it indicated that the PC
card was detected.  However, no signal was found, presumably because any
required configurations had not been done.

So from the KWiFiManager menu I selected the configuration editor as
root and entered the following data in the Config 1 tab -- the only
one used:  Network name left blank; autodetection of interface,
indicated as eth0; no start-up script entered; encryption configured as
follows:  Key to use: Key 1.  Crypto mode: open.  Crypto Keys: in the
slot for key 1 the ASCII code given me by the LAN administrator was
entered; to right of code was the indication WEP 64 bit hex, which
also conformed with the information given me.  The other three key slots
are not used.

In the General Settings area, Load preset configuration on start-up
selected. Configuration to Load=Config 1.  Number of configurations=1.

I next selected Activate.  A window labelled Information -- KDE
Control Module opened.  The text in it read as follows:

The following settings could not be applied:

Speed settings could not be modified.
Interface could not be re-enabled.

I selected OK to close that window, and then Apply.  My last action
was at this point was to close the configuration editor window.

There was no change in the KWiFIManager as described above.  So
obviously what needed to be configured was not.

The only other thing I could think of doing at this point was to look at
the Network Settings in the KDE Control Centre as root.  It indicated
the interface as eth0, the protocol as dhcp, the state as
disabled, and the comment as Wireless Network Device.

By highlighting the line with all the foregoing information, two buttons
below were activated: Configure Device and Enable Device.  Selecting
the former produced another window with two panels in it.

The first panel was labeled TCP/IP address.  The automatic button was
already selected, with dhcp in the slot to the right of the button.
Below that button was the manual button, unselected.  At the bottom of
this panel was the indication Activate when the computer starts, the
button for which was already checked.

The second panel was labeled Wireless Settings.  There were three
slots to make entries: ESSID, which was empty; WEP key, which had 10
asterisks in it; and Key type, which had ASCII.  In the ESSID slot I
entered any.  I then selected OK, which applied the change and
closed the window.

I then selected Enable Interface.  Another window appeared, saying
that the new configuration had not been changed and asked whether I
wanted to apply the changes.  I did and thereupon selected Apply.

The network settings were saved, but then a new window appeared, with
the title Error While Listing Network Interfaces - KDE.  The text
message in the window read as follows:

Could not parse the XML output from
the network configuration backend.

After closing that window, the Wireless Network Device was still in
Disabled state.  Selecting Apply in the Network Settings window in the
KDE Control Centre saves the settings once again, but the device state
is still Disabled.

Besides the Network Interfaces tab in the Network Settings window,
there were three others; Route, Domain Name System and Network Profiles.
The first and third of those three were empty.  The second, as far
as I could determine, merely repeats the contents of the /etc/hosts
file.  It does indicate the static IP address of the laptop to connect
to my home LAN in Toronto: 192.168.0.142.

Iwconfig returned the following:

lono wireless extensions.

irda0 no wireless extensions.

eth0  NOT READY!  ESSID:off/any

It does, namely the presence of usbhid, which I left out when generating

Who's rich enough to afford to waste gas driving faster than 60 MPH, much
less more on a regular basis?  Fuel economy on most vehicles takes a
massive nosedive after 60MPH due to wind drag.



It's a time-money problem.  People would rather spend the extra
money to get there faster.

Saving only 5 or 10 minutes on a 90 mile trip?  Irrelevant.
  
  

True, but it still doesn't work out rationally:  Unless you make a lot of
money or gas is unbelievably cheap, that few minutes saved will cost you
more wage-hours than it's worth...



Unless you lose you job being late and you don't want to leave any
earlier. Its a choice.
  
  
First, my mileage doesn't go down until I consistently cross the 80 mph 
barrier.  Second, on my 125 mile commute to work, one way, the time 
saved at 10-15 mph faster than 60 is considerable.  It's the difference 
between spending 12+ hours a day away from the house, to spending 
between 11 and 11 1/2 hours away from the house.  Over the course of a 
work week that's a lot of time saved.


Also, I have a buddy that lives in southern Oregon and it's a 560 mile 
drive to his house.  It takes him more than 12 hours to make the drive.  
I make the drive in around 9 hours.  That's a huge difference in how 
tired a person is by the time they finish the trip.   Is the 1 or 2 mpg 
I lose by driving faster than he does worth it?  You bet.  I am still 
getting 35 mpg so how much can I be losing?  I get about exactly the 
same mileage if I drive at 60 - 65 only I'm far less tired after driving 
for 9 hours than I am driving for 12 hours which means I am far more 
alert and thus a much safer driver.  



Piece of info for you, very rarely does my highway speed go under 85.

I've been stopped by Police in my 1969 442, more than once. Asking me to
get out of the car and search the trunk, the engine compartment and
glove compartment... and so on. Only to be given a warning for drive 100
+MPH.

Last time, the one officer had a digital camera and asked if he could
take pictures.

I've also been pulled over with my Lancer for going 75MPH in a 70MPH
zone, and given a ticket.

But, yes, I also drive faster than posted.
  


LOL.  Yeah, I've gotten off what would have been some very expensive
tickets too.  The only reason I could ever think of was because of the
cars I was driving at the time piqued the cops interest.  


I once got pulled over for doing about 90 in town and having a huge blue
cloud of tire smoke behind me in my 69 ElCamino.  I was honest, didn't
lie, but the cop really liked my car and he gave me a verbal warning.
That was about 30 years ago though.  I also got off on a speeding ticket
in my Subaru SVX.  The cop looked the car over really carefully, asked
me if I knew how fast I was going, and I told him, Not until I saw you.
I really don't have any sense of speed in this car until I hit 100.  He
laughed and said, I believe it.  He gave me a verbal warning for close
to 70 in a 45 mph zone on a two lane country road.  


Other times I've been pulled over for 3 miles an hour over. The car a
person drives and the attitude towards the cop makes a lot of difference
between warnings and tickets, at least in my experience.

 Sorry I can't find on that website where it says installing DeCSS is
 illegal.  Reference?
 
 Teledirekt suggested that it should be possible to make a back up copy
 for consumers of DVDs and that their programme DVD X copy would enable
 this. The judge ruled though that the programme can be considered as a
 circumvention device and distribution of those devices is not allowed on
 the grounds of 29a of the Dutch Copyright Act.
 The above website is inaccurate.  Stichtig B.R.E.I.N. is much like the
 M.P.A.A., a organization that is trying to limit pirating of copyrighted
 material.  There is a fair use stipulation to the Dutch Copyright Act,
 and installing DeCSS could be considered (and has by some courts) a fair
 use.
 
 Ok, how about:
 
 http://www.euro-copyrights.org/index/1/10 :
 
 In any case, technological measures that prevent acts that are exempted
 under copyright law are protected. Therefore, one is, for instance, not
 allowed to circumvent a measure that hinders private copying, even
 though private copying is explicitly exempted under the Dutch Copyright
 Act. The protection of technological measures is limited by the fact
 that only technological measures applied to copyright protected material
 are covered. Consequently, technologies preventing acts as regards
 non-copyrightable material, for instance, material in regard of which
 the copyright has expired, may lawfully be circumvented.
 [ ... ]
 The following two sections of the provision list the restricted acts
 regarding technological measures. First, Section 2 of article 29a states
 that anyone circumventing an effective technological measure, who does
 so with the knowledge, or with reasonable grounds to know, that he is
 pursuing that objective, commits an unlawful act and may be held liable
 under civil law.
 [ ... ]
 Section 3 of Article 29a concerns the provision and distribution of
 circumvention services or devices. Briefly put, circumvention devices
 are cracks. The provision of information, for instance, on a website,
 aiding to the circumvention of a technological measure could be a
 circumvention service for the purpose of the provision. The offering of
 such services or devices constitutes an unlawful act, if the devices or
 services:
 (a) are advertised for circumvention, or
 (b) have only a limited commercially significant purpose or use other
 than to circumvent technological measures, or
 (c) are primarily designed for circumvention
 [ ... ]
 As is mentioned above, technological measures appear to be protected if
 they restrict any act which is not authorized by the copyright holder.
 Therefore, not only does one need the right holder’s permission to
 engage in a copyright infringing act, but, if it is technologically
 blocked, a license is also needed to lawfully perform a non-infringing
 act. Even if an activity is expressly exempted by copyright law, like
 the act of private copying, a right holder who applies technological
 measures statutorily has control over that act.
 The Directive, however, allows the EU Member States to cater for
 some of the copyright exemptions. But the Dutch legislator decided not
 to do so yet. The new legislation allows the Minister of Justice to by
 decree introduce a requirement for copyright holders to provide the
 means which enable certain exempted acts. Of course, until the Minster
 sees fit to issue a decree, no such obligation will exist.
 The Dutch Copyright Act contains many exemptions. But the decree may
 only be issued for those exemptions permitting educational usage, usage
 by disabled people, private copying, copying for preservation purposes,
 temporary copying by broadcasting organizations and usage for judicial
 or administrative purposes. Exactly which “means” the right holders will
 have to provide remains uncertain until a decree has been issued.
 
 You keep saying such-and-such is legal the Netherlands and courts have
 found it so, but every document I can find and every ruling I can find
 any information about says otherwise, and you don't provide any
 citations.
  
 Not that the law stops most of the people.
 Well you're right about that!  :-)The law has certainly not stopped
 me from doing quite a bit that's illegal here.
 I think the media companies are to blame for this mess.  Especially the
 software distributors.  I can understand someone wanting to protect
 their hard work, but reality says no matter how much something is
 protected, it will eventually be cracked.  The battle has been raging
 ever since computers became popular and I imagine it will continue.

Two identical usb networking cards problem

2007-03-03 Thread David Fokkema
Hi group,

I googled / searched the list around a lot but couldn't find what the
cause of my problem might be...

I installed debian etch on an NSLU2. It has an internal network card
which is brought up automatically at boot time. I have two additional
usb network cards attached to a hub which are identical. Only one of
them is brought up at boot time. Which one, that is (well, seems to be,
anyway) completely random, :-/

My /etc/network/interfaces:
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
allow-hotplug eth0
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.20.10
netmask 255.255.255.0

allow-hotplug eth1
iface eth1 inet static
address 192.168.31.10
netmask 255.255.255.0

allow-hotplug eth2
iface eth2 inet dhcp
pre-up ethtool -s eth2 autoneg off speed 10


If I change the allow-hotplug to auto, my problem is solved. So why this
mail? Just because I feel that etch is logging way to little information
because:

1. I can't seem to find in the logs when and by what daemon / script
eth0 is brought up. It is always brought up. No logs whatsoever.
2. I had to edit /lib/udev/net.agent to let it log which interface it
was bringing up. I already set a log level of debug
in /etc/udev/udev.conf but that is not enough.
3. It seems that udev is not involved, however, it must be udev which is
changing interface names with its persistent-net.rules since my logs
tell me that the asix driver loads eth1 and eth2 with some mac
addresses, but after I bring up the missing interface, the names are
swapped according to their mac addresses. However, I can't seem to find
that in the logs.
4. /var/log/boot tells me ifup -a is run, however, I'd like to know
which interfaces ifup is bringing up. No log...
5. It is not ifup -a which is bringing up the one usb interface because
ifdown eth1 and eth2 and then ifup -a -n shows me ifup has no intention
of bringing up either eth1 or eth2.

My question: how can I find out which daemon/script is bringing up my
two out of three interfaces and how can I make sure it brings up all
three (without resorting to auto lines, apparently allow-hotplug should
work).

I feel kinda lost...

Thanks in advance,

David

Re: Firestarter VS Shorewall

2007-03-03 Thread Jordi
Thanks for the links

I asked in the Ubuntu forum too and they say me that it may be
unnecessary to combine hardware firewall and software firewall
(iptables or any other that uses it).
But they said I can do, if I am paranoid.
And as you said, the correct place to stop an intruder is BEFORE they
cross the router.

As has been said in all these conversations here in Debian and Ubuntu,
we could resume:
- A hardware firewall is better than a software firewall.
- You can convine software and hardware firewall.
- But if you do that, you won't get a fantastic improvement on
security.
- All software firewalls use iptables, but some allow extra features.
- To have a good hardware firewall buy a good router-switch or a
specific hardware device.

If something is wrong please correct me.

In order to find a good router with firewall I saw this in the pc
shop:
http://www.smc.com/index.cfm?event=viewProductlocaleCode=EN_USApid=1588
It is the 7904WBRA2 of the company named SMC Networks.
The text says this:
-
The SMC7904WBRA2 combines an ADSL2/2+ modem, router, 4-port 10/100 LAN
switch, 802.11g wireless access point  robust SPI firewall making it
the complete solution for securely connecting  sharing your high
speed ADSL connection, wired or wirelessly. It gives you instant
always on internet connectivity with download speeds up to 24Mbps -
ideal for streaming multimedia content to the home. The EZ
Installation Wizard with on-screen help configures your ADSL
connection  wireless network in 5 easy to follow steps. Quality-of-
Service gives priority to real-time, delay sensitive applications like
Voice-over-IP and video-on-demand to improve the user experience. The
NAT firewall with Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI), Intrusion
Detection System (IDS)  Denial-of-Service (DoS) provides robust
security from hackers. VPN pass-through is also provided for securely
connecting to your office or corporate network.
-
It seems it has good protection: hardware firewall, IDS and protection
against DoS. It is thought both for personal and corporate use. Seems
good.
Should I buy this router-modem-switch ?

So long,

Jordi

a few things ...

2007-03-03 Thread pinniped


You probably did not need ndiswrapper in either case.

The 'rt2500' driver has been made open source over a year ago:
apt-cache search rt2500

A small group is currently rewriting the code for a mode generic and friendlier 
driver but I don't believe the work is done yet - but the drivers and tools are 
fine.  I've built a remote device using a USB key which uses the rt2570 driver, 
which is closely related.

For the PRISM - well, that depends on which model PRISM.  With the earlier 
models, drivers have been in Linux for ages; originally in the 'pcmcia-cs' 
project but lately they have been accepted into the main kernel.  Whether or 
not you need to install the older pcmcia-cs package depends on what version 
kernel you are running.

You can find other tools to help configure the PRISM card using 'apt-cache':
apt-cache search prism

I would not recommend using a GUI for the job at the moment - there have been 
too many changes recently (and yet another major change in the works).

There is a linux wireless / PCMCIA compatibility site which has been discussed 
in these forums several times in the past; if you can find those discussions 
and a link you will find a lot of useful information.

I can only tell about firestarter. Perhaps it helps a bit.

First, about the understanding what is happening-argument:
I do not want to know about the lowest level of my firewall.
I do not programm in assembler, I use C++ or C#.
With an assembler I would have a better understand what
is happening. I do not need it. I want a solution.
I do not write my own operating system out of the same reason.

So I just want a working firewall.
And firestarter does this job.
I do not know about complex setups with multiple servers.
I am just using one server, client etc at the time.
The firewall shall protect one computer at a time.
And so I use firestarter everywhere.
I use ssh with X11 forwarding to manage the firewall.
If I have a pure debian server without gui, it takes
ca. 70 MB extra space to install firestarter + gui bla bla.
Then I can use the firestarter gui to setup.

It shows the active connections it it has a mode, where
it stops all outgoing connections per default  (this has
to be activated: one click) etc
Before you use this option, you should enable ssh :-)

It is just great.

But I do not know, if shorewall is better or worse.

Andreas

The following commands are your friends :

If you can see an interface names as ethX_rename or something like that,
it means udev mess it up. You can fix it, by writing udev rules. This is
the way I do to ensure my interfaces get the right name.

By the way, you can see the name supply by udev :

XP Blocking CD Boot

2007-03-03 Thread Thomas H. George
I built a new computer with two hard drives and installed XP Home 
Edition on the first drive.  The second drive contains my Debian system 
- kernel 2.6.17 and Testing.  I intended to use disc 1 of a Sarge 
installation set as a rescue disk to access hdb and run lilo to convert 
this box to a dual boot box.


After XP was installed the system will no longer boot from a CD.  Even 
after I entered BIOS setup and changed the first, second and third boot 
choices to CDROM the system still persists in booting from the hard drive.


What can I do to regain control?

 It has to be your BIOS.  XP cannot change how your computer boots other
 than modifying the MBR of the primary HD, which _could_ cause your
 computer not to see your Debian, but you still should be able to boot
 from CD.  Unless your BIOS is messed up.
True, however if the CD is bad (scratched ?) , the bios might have some
hidden, automatic fallback which makes it boot from the first
hard-drive. Make sure the CD is still bootable, e.g. by trying it on
some other machine. Also, check the cables on your CD-drive.

 The following commands are your friends :

 If you can see an interface names as ethX_rename or something like that,
 it means udev mess it up. You can fix it, by writing udev rules. This is
 the way I do to ensure my interfaces get the right name.

Nope, everythings ok there.

 By the way, you can see the name supply by udev :

Re: Configurable files and functions

On Fri, 2007-03-02 at 12:33 -0600, Dave Walker wrote:
 I am looking for an explanatory list of configuration files used in

 Does such a list exist?
 
 I have in mind such files as .bashrc and .bash_profile and I am sure
 there are many others that I will encounter.
 
 Is it time for me to buy a reference book containing this info? If so,
 which one? I do plan to upgrade to Etch as soon as it is the stable
 release, so if a book is available for sarge, would it be useful for
 etch?


There's no comprehensive list of configuration files because there are
17,000 packages available for Debian, many of which have their own
configurations, some of which over-ride others in certain cases.  No one
person is going to use or need to know about configurations for software
he's never going to install.

If you want a solid, comprehensive reference for common, standard
commands and configurations, check out Unix in a Nutshell, Fourth
Edition by Arnold Robbins (O'Reilly).  It's not Debian-specific, but
has a lot of information useful for anyone running Unix variants
including Linux.  It has chapters on the various shells and their
specific features, overviews of package management (apt, rpm, Mac OS X,
etc.), usage summaries of vim  emacs, sed  awk, and a handy
alphabetical summary of commands for GNU/Linux, Solaris, OS X, and Java.
And more.

Another very useful book for learning the basics is A Practical Guide
to Linux Commands, Editors, and Shell Programming by Mark G. Sobel
(Prentice Hall), which is more of a tutorial-based type book than a
reference work.  But it does have a great glossary and a command
reference, which provides a detailed overview of utilities sorted by
function (Utilities That Display  Manipulate Files, Network
Utilities, etc.).  It gives arguments, options and usage examples for
each of these.  That's in addition to more in-depth coverage of shells,
editors, and shell programming functions.

Finally, The Debian System: Concepts  Techniques by Martin F. Krafft
(Open Source Press/No Starch Press) is an excellent overview of how
Debian works.  Yes, some of it is a little dated at this point, but
Krafft includes some information about features new to Etch even though
it was published after Sarge's release, and for most of the material,
not much has changed.  Since it really does focus on concepts and
techniques rather than, say, how to configure XF86 (which has been
replaced by xorg in Etch), most of what he explains carries over to Etch
and beyond.  It's really a here's how Debian does things kind of book
and will provide all but the most advanced/experienced users with a
solid understanding of Debian fundamentals.

IMO, either the first or second book, plus the third, will teach you a
great deal about Unix/Linux in general and Debian specifically, so that
you won't miss not having a comprehensive list of config files.  You'll
know where to look for them and how to configure them if you spend time
with these books.  You'll certainly learn all about .bashrc
 .bash_profile, and much more.

A really nice feature for the newbie documentation project many have
been discussing on this list would be essential Debian bookshelf
recommendations.

Hmm!

from man ifup

'-a, --all  If given to ifup, affect all interfaces marked auto.  	 
Interfaces are brought up in the order in which they are  defined in 
  /etc/network/interfaces.'


man interfaces

'Lines beginning with the word auto are used to identify the physical 
interfaces to be brought up when ifup is run  with  the  -a option. 
(This  option  is  used by the system boot scripts.)  Physical interface 
names should follow the word auto on the same line.  There can be 
multiple auto stanzas.  ifup brings the named interfaces up in the 
order listed.


Lines beginning with allow- are used to identify interfaces that 
should be brought up automatically by various  subsytems.  This may  be 
done using a command such as ifup --allow=hotplug eth0 eth1, which 
will only bring up eth0 or eth1 if it is listed in an allow-hotplug 
line. Note that allow-auto and auto are synonyms.'


So ifup -a will only bring up all the interfaces marked 'auto' as you 
have discovered.


allow-hotplug passes the task of bringing up of the interface to udev 
(as this now incorporates hotplug) so /etc/init.d/udev is the script 
that starts the deamon.


As to why this doesn't work and the 'auto' does, its probably something 
to do with the udev rules used to identify the interfaces.  I don't have 
usb interfaces and am not a udev expert so I don't know how much more 
help I can be :)

 Actually, in my setup at least, the Dark Background document looks
 absolutely great in a text browser such as elinks.

Have you check it out in GUI browsers as well, for the embedded images?

 Maybe another concern of mine is that LaTeX and DocBook are technologies
 that won't go away any time soon.. And this guarantees that both the
 time I spend rewriting my .txt documents in either of these, and the
 time spent acquiring some fluency using them is not entirely wasted.  
  
 Right now, my preference would probably be DocBook over LaTeX since it
 clearly separates content and formatting...

Seems that I didn't make it quite clear. The above AsciiDoc Markup Syntax
Quick Summary shows how simple it is to produce stunning effects via just
plain text. In fact the source (for making the html or whatever) looks
nothing like any markup language but plain text. You almost don't need to
learn anything, well I mean the markup language -- just learn how to
format your text content.

Further, you can produce html or DocBook/LaTeX source from AsciiDoc, and
even *nix man pages. 

All in all, check out 

AsciiDoc
http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/

and see if its simple formatting fits all your need for your simple
documentation framework, before submerging into something *much* more
complicated. 

If it doesn't seem to meet all your need, I recommend to go directly to
Latex. Because the documents that you've seen on xpt.sourceforge.net and
AsciiDoc sites are actually produced by DocBook. 

On xpt.sourceforge.net the separated pages with TOC is produced by
DocBook (from AsciiDoc source). The single file versions are produced
directly by AsciiDoc. 

Check out the difference at

http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/nix/asciidoc-usg/ascu03-SourceCodeHighlighting/ar01s04.html#id2497513

and compare with the single file version link from the bottom of the
page.

If you do need Latex, then maybe the

All You Need to Know about Latex
http://xpt.sourceforge.net/techdocs/language/latex/

might give you somewhat easier start. That is in fact what all I need to
know when writing my master thesis.

Just had a quick look at /etc/udev/ and it may be worth uncommenting the

e.g. the last line of hotplug.rules has an additional logging function, 
it may help you track down what happens when you insert the device which

 After spending some time searching, I have to agree with you.  It seems
 that it is legal to install deCSS, it is not illegal to distribute it,
 which means that whichever website you get it from is breaking the law,
 but you are not by downloading it.  It seems to be very much like the
 films and movies here.
 
 According to what I have read, it is a first amendment issue, which of
 course only applies in the US. It's a bit like finders keepers.  You
 find the software, you can keep it, but you're not aloud to lose it.

The first test of the DMCA here in the U.S. was the 2600 case.  2600 is
a hacker magazine that published DeCSS code on its website and was sued
by the MPAA.  Unfortunately, the First Amendment defense failed to
protect the magazine.  The judge ruled that while computer code is
clearly speech, it is not protected speech because of its nature.
Despite the First Amendment, all speech is not created equal.
Commercial speech, for example, is subject to extra restrictions so that
a company can't (legally) promote a product as a cure for cancer if it
is not, in fact, a cure for cancer.

But it does strike me as odd that in the U.S., it is legal to explain
how to make a bomb, or legal to claim that Holocaust never happened, but
it is illegal to explain how to watch an encrypted DVD on a device that
doesn't have CSS built-in.  As you said, weird laws.

European countries have a different approach to the issue of speech, so
I was curious about how the copyright cartels are managing to press
their agenda in light of that approach.  It seems to me they are just as
successful there as they have been here.

But then as Steve Jobs noted, if the Europeans really wanted to get rid
of DRM and have interoperability between audio playback devices, they
have that power.  After all, three of the big four music distributors
are European-owned (UMG is owned by French company Vivendi, Sony/BMG is
jointly owned by Sony of Japan and BMG of Germany, and EMI is British
[1]).  I confess I get a little tired of Europeans blaming the U.S. and
the RIAA for the situation when the companies controlling the purse
strings are mostly in Europe's yard.  Follow the money, and you'll see
who is *really* benefitting from draconian DRM and laws designed to
protect it.


 It doesn't really matter to me because I feel that it's my right to use
 my computer however I see fit as long as I don't affect other computers
 in the process.  Playing media has no effect on other computers, unless
 of course I'm streaming it.

I agree.

If you are thinking about backing up data as well as moving mail data to
another system you will also need to grab the config file:
~/.kde/share/config/kmailrc

Hi,

Is there a place where the difference between these latest kernel

When I install Etch on my machine from the daily built, it pulls

With that and grub I can boot into a USB disk.

But when I install linux-image-2.6-k7 (my processor) the boot 
will fail, because he cannot find the root device, meaning the 
initrd failed somehow.






The issue is the use of an USB harddrive.


yes, this is more than trivial at this point, I think.

Linux-image-4-486 has no problems when used on a USB disk partition 
on which Etch is installed with the daily-built d-i. I always boots 
right.


However...

When I install the same linux-image-4-486 on an older partition 
that now runs 2.6.20-ck1 and only refers to the USB disk from 
/etc/fstab, the boot will fail 50% of the time because he just 
doesn't wait long enough for the device to show up and changing 
mkinitrd.conf with DELAY=10 and running update-initramfs -u did not 
change anything.


Also when I use yaird instead there is never any problem exept for 
the poor behavior of yaird: see 
http://wiki.debian.org/USB-HD_Boot_Full_Debian?highlight=%28USB%29

and:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2006/05/msg01557.html




I'm sorry I'm very confused as to what exactly you are trying to do
here. Are you using /boot from the hard-disk and then using / on USB
or what?

A


I have a PATA disk (80GB) in a USB enclosure:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817145657

The problem exists in booting a Debian stock kernel *either* from the 
USB disk itself (it shows up as /dev/sda and I have 6 partitions on it)

*or* from another HD with the USB disk referenced in /etc/fstab.

If you boot from a USB disk partition with a stock kernel he cannot 
find the root device.


When you boot with a stock kernel from another HD and have the USB 
disk referenced then he reports a bad superblock on the device.


But it is a mixed bag: I get those errors with a fullblown Sid system 
( i.e. everything installed including X). I do *not* get those errors 
when I do a minimum Etch install to the USB disk, dist-upgrade to Sid 
and install another stock kernel.


Neither do I have problems with my own compiled 2.6.20-ck1 kernel + 
yaird as initrd. (But yaird has other problems: I don't know how to 
upgrade the system with that as initrd) *That* was George Hein's 
solution.


I would prefer to run stock kernels, but under all conditions they 
have to work with the USB disk, it seems.




But see this:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=401916



But the patch fits but gets a PANIC!
So do this:

In you favorite editor edit /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local

and under line 9 add:

   echo Self-imposed wait of 15s...
/bin/sleep 15.0

save and run update-initramfs -u

Viola! Now you can run any Debian stock kernel on a USB disk.
It will show the message, wait 15secs (actually 10 would do) and merrily 
load any USB disk files.




I.ve updated 
http://wiki.debian.org/USB-HD_Boot_Full_Debian?highlight=%28USB%29
to reflect the fact that you can install and run a Debian Stock Kernel 
from USB disk but as of this date you must change the initrd image 
generated with initramfs-tools by changing the local script to extend 
the default wait. Also as of date the 'rootdelay' option does not work. 
In the future maybe it will.

Re: Firestarter VS Shorewall

2007-03-03 Thread Jordi
Thanks Andreas.

I agree with most that you said, as I am very pragmatic on my needs.

I think I will buy the router I said, wich looks a very strong router
from security point of view, and plus install firestarter and some
other utility if I need.

And things sometimes are not so complex. For example, in Xubuntu you
can install all in graphical mode, start the server through Terminal,
and then, if you want to save more resources, it can be done through
an option. So you exit the graphical environment and the server
continues working, with all resources avaliable.
To return to graphical GUI, just another command.
So no need to masochism typing dozens of comands to do what you can
graphicaly, at least when you have your pc at hand like me.

Yes I know most people may say this is not profesional, and I am
missing learning lots of shell comands, but I know enough, and I
already have to have so many things in mind, so this would be a
RESOURCE LEAK for my brain hahahaha!!

Anyway, please give me opinions about the router by SMC Networks:

Re: Wired and wireless PCMCIA LAN cards: configuration problems

 Consequently, for the duration I wanted to replace the aforementioned
 D-Link card with a wireless PCMCIA card (SMC model 2853W 802.11g, 2.4
 gH, 54 mbps).  Unfortunately, I have so far been unable to connect my
 laptop to the wireless LAN in the building.  What I did to try to
 establish a connection follows.
 
lot of snippage
 Iwconfig returned the following:
 
 lono wireless extensions.
 
 irda0 no wireless extensions.
 
 eth0  NOT READY!  ESSID:off/any

 sit0  no wireless extensions.

This looks like the card is recognized but I've never used a G card to
know if everything is ok. I've only used a orinoco (B card).

 
snippage
 Examination of the messages which scrolled by while booting up revealed
 the following, which by the way did not appear in the syslog file, or
 show in dmesg:
 
 Configuring network interfaces ... /etc/network/interfaces:10:
 misplaced option
 ifup: couldn't read interfaces file /etc/network/interfaces
 
 Running ifup eth0 returns the same, with the exception of the text
 preceding the elipsis.
 
 The file /etc/network/interfaces reads as follows:
 
 1  # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
 2  # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).
 3
 4  # The loopback network interface
 5  auto lo
 6  iface lo inet loopback
 7
 8  # The primary network interface
 9  allow-hotplug eth0
 10  address 127.0.0.1
 11  netmask 255.0.0.0

Line 10 and 11 are not needed, and some bug report is needed, when
possible.

 12  iface eth0 inet dhcp
 13
 14
 15  auto eth0
 
 When I commented out line 10, ifup eth0 returned the same as above,
 with number 11 replacing 10.  When I commented out both lines 10 and 11,
 ifup eth0 tried to ping to the network.  I did this test while
 unconnected; I am sure that if I had been connected the pings would have
 received a positive response.
 

As pinnedped said: some gui tools do strange thing with the
/etc/network/interfaces. So using the command line tools is the only
reliable way, at least in my experiece. ifconfig, iwconfig, ifup,ifdown
and the other iw-tools are what i use untill I find a GUI that works.

 With the D-Link card installed ifconfig returns the following:
 
 eth0  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:50:BA:78:00:6D
   inet6 addr: fe80::250:baff:fe78:6d/64 Scope:Link

   RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
   TX packets:33 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
   collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
   RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:6344 (6.1 KiB)
   Interrupt:10 Base address:0x300
 

This looks fine.

 In any event, I can get the D-Link card to connect, even though I have
 to open to my user before installing it.  On the other hand I cannot
 connect with either of the two wireless cards I tried.
 
 The priority task is to get a wireless connection.  I would certainly
 appreciate all the help I can get to be able to do so.  I would also
 like to be able to switch from one card to the other without difficulty,
 by obviating the problem mentioned in the proceeding paragraph.
You might want to try some 'testing' while we folks find a solution:
1) see if you can ask the other person to try your wifi card in his/her
machine to see if that person can get a good result: the card is not
defective and works with a linux
2) see if the wifi owner would turn off secutiry (ASCII key) for a small
test to see if that help: the card works but the secuirty is not entered
correctly

   Still leaves me with one question: how do I figure out which
   daemon/script brings up my interfaces at what time?
  
   Thanks,
  
   David
  
  
   /etc/init.d/networking is the script.  The order of the scripts is 
   controlled by the order in which they appear in the relevant run level 
   directory /etc/rc(runlevel).d.
  
   The SXXscript 'starts' the script KXXscript stops it.  These links are 
   run in numerical order of the XX.
   
   This script only runs 'ifup -a', as far as I can tell. Ifup won't log
   which devices it upped. Furthermore, 'ifup -a' never ups my usb nets
   eth1 and eth2 when I ssh in, down eth1 and eth2 and then issue 'ifup
   -a'. However, one of them is always up when my system finishes booting.
   How can that be?
   
  
  Hmm!
  
  from man ifup
  
  '-a, --all  If given to ifup, affect all interfaces marked auto.
   
  Interfaces are brought up in the order in which they are  defined in 
 /etc/network/interfaces.'
  
  man interfaces
  
  'Lines beginning with the word auto are used to identify the physical 
  interfaces to be brought up when ifup is run  with  the  -a option. 
  (This  option  is  used by the system boot scripts.)  Physical interface 
  names should follow the word auto on the same line.  There can be 
  multiple auto stanzas.  ifup brings the named interfaces up in the 
  order listed.
  
  Lines beginning with allow- are used to identify interfaces that 
  should be brought up automatically by various  subsytems.  This may  be 
  done using a command such as ifup --allow=hotplug eth0 eth1, which 
  will only bring up eth0 or eth1 if it is listed in an allow-hotplug 
  line. Note that allow-auto and auto are synonyms.'
  
  So ifup -a will only bring up all the interfaces marked 'auto' as you 
  have discovered.
  
  allow-hotplug passes the task of bringing up of the interface to udev 
  (as this now incorporates hotplug) so /etc/init.d/udev is the script 
  that starts the deamon.
  
  As to why this doesn't work and the 'auto' does, its probably something 
  to do with the udev rules used to identify the interfaces.  I don't have 
  usb interfaces and am not a udev expert so I don't know how much more 
  help I can be :)
 
 I have the same feeling. Reading through the documentation I believe I
 get a feeling for how it works, but looking through the logs (there
 _are_ udev logs and I modified net.agent to log the interface it is
 operating on) no devices are brought up by udev (unless I yank it out
 and insert it again in my usb hub). So... what happens? It is irritating
 to discover that linux does not log everything (as I always tell windows
 users who're tracking down fathomable problems).
 
I have a vague impression that this may be related to the initrd. the
kernel boots with the initrd and has script that do things like modprobe
things related to say networking device then init is called and the
runlevels do their thing. IIRC the initrd stuff is not logged, so that
would explain why there is not messages and since this happends before
the runlevels, you cant change the outcome. This is a bit of wild
speculation as this is a fuzzy area in my understanding. Any further
clarifictions welcomed. Udev always seems to be voodoo to use mortals.
