Re: Connexion ssh non permanente
Salut, En conjonction avec « TCPKeepAlive », il y a l'option « ClientAliveInterval » qui est l'intervalle en secondes entre les envois de paquets de maintien. J'avais eu ce problème sur RedHat et l'avais résolu en m'apercevant que même si « TCPKeepAlive » est à yes, « ClientAliveInterval » est par défaut à 0, ce qui signifie qu'aucun paquet n'est envoyé. Je l'avais fixé à 30 et je n'ai plus eu de soucis de déconnexion. Cordialement, -- Guillaume Le samedi 14 novembre 2009 à 00:48 +0100, Goldy a écrit : Bonjour, J'ai un soucis avec un serveur ssh qui déconnecte systématiquement les utilisateurs après un certain temps de non-activité dans le terminal. C'est un peu gênant car la déconnexion se fera même si un programme est en cours d'exécution mais qu'il ne renvoie aucune sortie. Je ne pense pas qu'il s'agisse d'un problème avec le client, car je n'ai pas ce problème lorsque je me connecte à un serveur dédié sous lenny. Ce problème que j'ai toujours eu sur cette machine (sous testing, dont l'installation date d'environs 12 mois) commence à me gêner, j'ai pensé que ça pouvait venir du fait que la connexion se faisait dans un réseau locale, mais il s'avère que le problème est présent même si je me connecte depuis un autre endroit. J'ai comparé les fichiers sshd_config des deux machines pour voir si une option serait manquante, mais à part un port supplémentaire en écoute sur le serveur qui pose problème, ils sont identiques, l'option TCPKeepAlive yes étant présente. Je ne sais pas d'où peut venir ce problème, le plus gros problème étant que j'utilise un tunnel ssh pour accéder à des services web sur ce serveur, et que ce tunnel finit par se fermer au bout d'un moment, de même je suis obligé de lancer la connexion ssh avec des -vv pour que quelque chose s'affiche dans le prompt et maintienne la connexion. Si vous avez une idée, merci d'avance.
Il lui est arrivé quelque chose de terrible
Bonjour, On vient de me raconter une histoire extraordinaire, et j'aimerais vous en parler... Connaissez-vous Marcel Béliveau? Vous savez, c'est l'auteur de l'émission Surprises sur Prise qui passait à la télé il y a quelques années. Il lui était arrivé quelque chose de terrible : Un beau jour, lors d'un examen de routine, son médecin change de visage, et ne veut rien lui dire tout de suite. Pouvez-vous attendre le résultat des analyses? Oui bien sûr, pourquoi? Je préfère ne rien vous dire pour l'instant Peu après, le verdict arrive, implacable : Monsieur Béliveau, nous sommes désolé, mais il ne vous reste plus qu'1 ou 2 mois à vivre. Vous imaginez le choc d'une telle nouvelle ? Qu'auriez vous fait à sa place ? Vous pouvez y réfléchir, mais Marcel Béliveau, lui, a fait une chose insensée... Inimaginable : Il s'en est sorti ! et a profité de la vie pendant de nombreuse années. Comment a-t-il fait ? On lui a tellement posé la question, qu'il a décidé d'expliquer tout cela dans un livre : 52 Petites Choses Qui Font De Grandes Différences Dans La vie J'ai obtenu l'autorisation de Marcel Béliveau lui-même alors qu'il était encore parmi nous d'en offrir un exemplaire à mes correspondants les plus fidèles. J'ai naturellement pensé à vous. Si vous voulez connaître le secret qui lui a fait gagner ce combat impossible, téléchargez son livre gratuitement ici : - http://url-ok.com/7c4c58 Vous avez la chance aujourd'hui de passer autant de temps que vous voulez avec l'un de ces miraculés que la médecine classe dans les guérisons spontanées... incompréhensibles. Et son secret s'applique dans tous les domaines de la vie: Vous voulez éviter de perdre de l'argent? Vous voulez éviter de perdre celui ou celle que vous aimez? Vous voulez éviter de perdre un jour votre santé? Vous voulez éviter la colère, la rancoeur, la déception, le manque, l'échec, l'impression d'être victime et de n'arriver à rien? La réponse est dans son secret, téléchargez-le ici : - http://url-ok.com/7c4c58 Même si ce n'était que pour savoir ce qu'il a fait pour s'en sortir, et gagner plusieurs années de vie de joie et de bonheur cela en vaudrait déjà la peine. Mais il y a plus -- BEAUCOUP plus dans : - http://url-ok.com/7c4c58 Maintenant, vous pouvez oublier ce mail, et laisser passer cette occasion - ou télécharger gratuitement le secret que Marcel Béliveau veut vous transmettre. Le choix vous appartient ! Bien amicalement andré TEJERINA P.S. Si vous téléchargez ce livre, j'aurai la preuve que vous ne faites pas partie de ceux qui traversent la vie portés par leurs habitudes et qui se contentent du sort réservé aux perdants de la vie. Ce simple geste me prouvera que vous cherchez à vous améliorer et à développer votre potentiel. Je vous tiendrai donc au courant de découvertes stupéfiantes qu'on a fait ces dernières années dans le domaine du mental. - http://url-ok.com/7c4c58 Un Gagnant Ne Lâche Jamais - Un Lâcheur Ne Gagne Jamais Pour vous desinscrire cliquez sur le lien ci-dessous: http://www.cercle-editeurs-internet.com/formulaires/desinscription.html

Hooking Debian to a Windows VM VPN connection
Hi list, I would like to know if it is possible to achieve what I am trying to. Here's the situation.. In my work I have a few tools that only work on Windows. Apart from that, to hook to the company's VPN I need some proprietary tools that again only run on Windows. To work around these issues I have installed Win XP on a VM using VirtualBox. This way I can use most stuff on Debian and the few tools that are Win-only I run inside the VM. The problem is that I need to work from home sometimes and, again, the VPN only works on Windows. I can use the VPN on the VM all right, but wanted to be able to hook my Debian network to the VPN that's running on Windows. The VM's network is set to bridge mode, which means that it connects directly to the router and has its own LAN IP. It is using the same interface as Debian (the wifi card in this case), but they have different IP addresses and can talk to each other. I even set up an SSH server on the VM and could connect to it from Debian. The problem seems to be that when I connect Windows to the VPN it grabs a VPN IP address and changes the routing table. From that point on I cannot talk to the Windows machine from Debian anymore. Does anybody have any idea how could I achieve VPN connectivity on Debian in this scenario? I appreciate any comments.

You just say 'VPN', which is becoming a generic term for any kind of remote access protocol. Do you actually mean a VPN such as OpenVPN, PPTP, L2TP or IPSec, or do you mean a remote desktop system such as provided by X, Windows RDP or Citrix? The default Windows true VPN, obtained without any third-party software or certificate configuration, is PPTP. One important use of a true VPN is to connect to a secure Internet proxy from a physical location in an insecure network, such as a public Wi-Fi facility. In this case, it is necessary for all traffic from the client to pass through the proxy once the VPN is open, and to facilitate this, Windows clients have a tickbox in the VPN configuration called 'Use default gateway on remote server' or something similar. This is selected by default. If what you are using really is a Windows VPN, then look for this tickbox in the configuration dialog box and untick it. The Windows client will then only route traffic intended for the remote LAN through the VPN. Make sure, as always with routed networks, that physical network addresses at both ends of the VPN are different. By default, the VPN itself bridges from the client VPN endpoint to the remote VPN server, but routes between the client's physical LAN and that VPN endpoint. Some information which you may not have and which may extend your options: -Windows XP Professional and Vista Business (or higher) workstations can be remotely controlled using Remote Desktop Protocol. If your workplace has an unused machine running one of these operating systems (or a Terminal Server), either Linux or any version of Windows may be used as a client to login remotely. This uses a single TCP port, unlike the Windows VPNs which use an additional IP protocol, and can be tunnelled over SSH where a remote server exists. It is also (recent versions) considered secure enough to work directly across the Internet. -Linux has a client which can connect to a Windows PPTP VPN server. This can be used to operate web-based software on the remote LAN, to access files, or to tunnel RDP if the company has a policy not to allow RDP directly from the Net. -- Joe -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Can't build from a CD-RW made by dfsbuild
Hello, I use dfsbuild to create live ISO images I sometimes boot from to test some things. Recently, I ran into problems with the generated ISOs. I use a CD-RW disc to boot from. The problem is, that the computer doesn't boot from the CD - it stops after disc drive detection, the CD starts spinning slowly and that's it. I have to turn the computer off. What's interesting about it, is that the disc seems to be erased after this. Could you help me finding the cause? I'd quite like a CD that would boot rather than erase itself when booted from... I suspect this is caused by some of the packages installed on the CD, because when I remove all the optional packages, the CD does boot. I can post the list of the installed packages (or even the whole ISO) if necessary. I have eliminated the kernel from the suspects, because I use the same kernel as on a previous version of the ISO that booted; also, the behaviour is the same with a newer kernel. The ISO boots fine in QEmu. I've tried different media and all do the same.

I've been a linux user for around 10 years now, however lately some 800MHz Coppermine machines are not performing as well as they used to. 650 MHz Coppermine + 386M RAM. How much RAM do you have installed? What I've read in this same list in the past, is that for the purpose of still not letting them die, using openBSD, or perhaps freeBSD, is the way to go. Or maybe turn them into servers, and optionally install one of the BSDs? However I was looking for benchmarks, or some data that would support that idea. The only benchmarks based on data I found, are pretty old, and pretty much based on networking/servers, such as: http://bulk.fefe.de/scalability I don't use a desktop manager, but still use X with window manager (fluxbox has been my choice for all these years). At first glance, the above benchmark attempts to compare the performance of the respective kernels, apparently focusing on aspects that would affect the throughput of an Internet server. If that's what you have in mind, I'm not sure to what degree switching to one of the BSDs would have any relevance to the performance of an interactive user-oriented local system and make any difference to the user's perception of the responsiveness of a full-fledged 'modern' desktop running the usual CPU hogs. Taking an artificial example to illustrate, if for instance you are running an instance of Firefox with a few tabs open, and something like 90-95% of the total CPU time is spent executing JS and a few instances of the flash plugin under the covers, slightly optimizing the 5-10 remaining percent is not going to make much difference. Even if you switched to a kernel that's globally twice as 'fast' (!) so-to-speak, you would only see a performance improvement of 5% at most, which is hardly noticeable. If any one could share pointers to more up to date benchmarks, which are as well oriented not just to networking and servers, it'd be great. The idea is to find data supporting the initial idea of freeBSD or openBSD providing better performance for old machines... Well, that might be a wrong assumption to start with, but that's what I've read... I have a ubuntu 9.10 partition on the side that features the default gnome desktop and it takes less than a minute to go from power-up to a working desktop. If I start text-mode applications on top of xterm + gnu/screen, the system is quite responsive. If, on the other hand, I run FF or Seamonkey, things tend to be a little sluggish, but all in all it is still quite usable. If anything, recent versions of both debian and ubuntu and large GUI apps such as FF are faster to start and have an altogether crisper feel to them than their counterparts of 2-3 years ago. Since my CPU is about 25% slower, and since you use the word 'lately' to qualify the slowdown, what I'm thinking is that something else may be hogging your CPU, or you have a memory leak somewhere that eventually causes your system to spend most of its time paging. Does performance degrade over time? If you implement one of the slimmer desktops and turn off unnecessary bells and whistles in your applications, I can't see any good reason why a recent version of debian/linux could not provide a decent interactive experience on your hardware.

It would help if you were to specify some of them (in English - my Chinese is almost non-existent). Is it domain names that are being blocked, specific URLs? or IP addresses?

Network automatic installation with custom mirror
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi list, I try to install my server from pxe boot and encounter some issue. Because my network bandwidth is very limited and I can't wait too long to install a server, so I collect all I need packages include packages from security.debian.org and ftp.us.debian.org and run apt-move to get a proper archive hierarchy that can be act as a mirror. The command apt-move above generate a modified Release file in /debian/dists/lenny/Release, and I have to sign this file to make the installer trust me. So I sign the /debian/dists/lenny/Release with my gpg key, then I custom the /var/lib/tftpboot/./initrd.gz and add my gpg key to initrd's /usr/share/keyrings/debian-archive-keyring.gpg Then I use pxeboot and preseed to install the Debian system. The new issue raised because in target system, my key does not added as trusted key. It seems the target's trusted key is generated at debootstrap step in debian-installer, I don't know how can I hack into it to add my gpg key as trusted key. Anyway, I think what I did it too complicated and there should be an easy way to fit my requirement. I appreciated if you can give me some clue to resolve this problem.

acpitool vs acpi-support
Hi, The acpitool and acpi-support look very similar to me: acpitool: acpi-support: The primary target audience are laptop users, since these people are most interested in things like battery status, thermal status and the ability to suspend (sleep mode). The program simply accesses the /proc/acpi or / sysfs entries to get or set ACPI values. It also supports various extensions for Toshiba, Asus, and IBM Thinkpad laptops. It is able to: * Detect loss and gain of AC power, lid closure, and the press of a number of specific buttons (on Asus, IBM, Lenovo, Panasonic, Sony and Toshiba laptops). * Suspend, hibernate and resume the computer, with workarounds for hardware that needs it. * On some laptops, set screen brightness. The overlapping functionality makes me don't know which one to choose. Anyone can help?
