apt et resolution forcée en ipv4

2011-03-19 Thread David Dumortier
Bonjour,

j'ai une lenny qui se refuse à resoudre en ipv4. J'ai désactivé ipv6, rebooté 
mais
apt-get update fait toujours ses résolutions en ipv6 et tente les connexions en 
ipv6,
echouant lamentablement ...
Je sais qu'il existe une option à mettre dans /etc/apt/apt.conf pour forcer 
l'utilistion
d'ipv4 mais impossible de remettre la main dessus (ni dans man ni chez google).

Merci.

Salut,

David Dumortier a écrit :

Comment ?

 rebooté mais apt-get update fait toujours ses résolutions en ipv6 et
 tente les connexions en ipv6, echouant lamentablement ...

Si IPv6 est réellement désactivé, ce n'est pas normal qu'il tente les
connexions en IPv6. Dans le cas contraire, il n'y a rien d'anormal.
Ensuite il devrait immédiatement réessayer en IPv4. Sinon, il y a un bug
(déjà vu avec le client whois).

 Je sais qu'il existe une option à mettre dans /etc/apt/apt.conf pour
 forcer l'utilistion d'ipv4 mais impossible de remettre la main dessus
 (ni dans man ni chez google).

A défaut tu peux appliquer le contournement proposé par Stéphane
Bortzmeyer dans le fil IPv4, IPv6 et DNS un peu plus haut.

PS : tes lignes sont trop longues.

Bonjour,

Je suis en squeeze.
Pour l'option de apt.conf je ne sais pas
mais voilà ce que je fais ici pour désactiver ipv6
qui fait ramer/planter (parfois) la connexion.

dans /etc/sysctl.conf
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1

pour prise en compte direct
echo 1  /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/disable_ipv6

dans /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
blacklist ipv6

pour que le blacklist.conf soit pris en compte
je crois qu'il faut regénérer l'initrd

Oui d'accord,
là j'ai rebooté sur Lenny (que j'ai gardé dans un coin ;)
et je n'ai, pour désactiver ipv6, que
blacklist ipv6
dans

 blacklist ipv6

ok,

donc
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
dans
/etc/sysctl.conf

suffit à desactiver ipv6 en squeeze (?)

Je ne suis pas sûr, n'ayant pas particulièrement testé. En fait ces
paramètres sysctl ne désactivent pas la pile IPv6 globalement mais par
interface.

Par contre on peut désactiver la pile IPv6 en spécifiant l'option

ipv6.disable=1

dans la ligne de commande du noyau, via le chargeur lilo ou grub. Cela
revient quasiment au même que de ne pas charger le module ipv6.

Note : cette option est apparue avec le noyau 2.6.31 et n'est donc pas
disponible avec le noyau standard de Lenny.

Bonjour,

J'ai redécouvert l'outil powerTop et je voudrai savoir si les préconisations matérielles 
(dernier onglet good/Bad) peuvent être rendue permanente dès le démarrage de la machine ?


En particulier tous ce qui concerne des circuits de la carte mère qui peuvent être mis en

bonjour,

je pensais que le dicton était un excellent principe :

charles s'en charge ...

mais comme cela ne fait rien avancer j'ai installé cet 
utilitaire et j'ai découvert ceci ( adapté pour ):

  # /etc/sysctl.conf
kernel.nmi_watchdog = 0
  # kernel.nmi_watchdog = 1  ## origin (sysctl -a |grep nmi)
  # vm.dirty_writeback_centisecs = 500 ## origin (sysctl -a |grep writeback)
vm.dirty_writeback_centisecs = 1500

 naturellement j'ai corrigé la syntaxe indiquée pour qu'elle 
 puisse être intégrée au fichier sysctl.conf ...


 désolé mourad, mais je n'ai pas accès au dernier onglet indiqué
 sur l'une des machines en route ...

No soy experto en redes pero si atacas un mirror que no tiene ipv6 es lógico 
que vaya lento.
 
   ¿Hay alguna manera de decirle al APT para que sólo utilice IPv4?.

Tendrías que desmontar el ipv6 cosa que no parece razonable.

Por que no pruebas apt-spy que te busque un mirror con el que ande rápido o 
sea que tire de ipv6. que creo que los hay.

   Estoy mirando todas las páginas man que se me ocurren (apt.conf,

Ya, estas hablando de protocolo de red a apt le da igual no es su problema el 
usa lo que hay.

Updated Debian 6.0: 6.0.1 released

2011-03-19 Thread Alexander Reichle-Schmehl

Updated Debian 6.0: 6.0.1 released  pr...@debian.org
March 18th, 2011http://www.debian.org/News/2011/20110319


Updated Debian 6.0: 6.0.1 released

The Debian project is pleased to announce the first update of its
stable distribution Debian 6.0 (codename Squeeze).  This update
mainly adds corrections for security problems to the stable release,
along with a few adjustment to serious problems.

Please note that this update does not constitute a new version of
Debian 6.0 but only updates some of the packages included.  There is no
need to throw away 6.0 CDs or DVDs but only to update via an up-to-date
Debian mirror after an installation, to cause any out of date packages
to be updated.

Those who frequently install updates from security.debian.org won't
have to update many packages and most updates from security.debian.org
are included in this update.

New CD and DVD images containing updated packages and the regular
installation media accompanied with the package archive respectively
will be available soon at the regular locations.

Upgrading to this revision online is usually done by pointing the
aptitude (or apt) package tool (see the sources.list(5) manual page) to
one of Debian's many FTP or HTTP mirrors.  A comprehensive list of
mirrors is available at:

  http://www.debian.org/mirror/list

Updated Debian 6.0: 6.0.1 released

The Debian project is pleased to announce the first update of its
stable distribution Debian 6.0 (codename Squeeze).  This update
mainly adds corrections for security problems to the stable release,
along with a few adjustment to serious problems.

Please note that this update does not constitute a new version of
Debian 6.0 but only updates some of the packages included.  There is no
need to throw away 6.0 CDs or DVDs but only to update via an up-to-date
Debian mirror after an installation, to cause any out of date packages
to be updated.

Those who frequently install updates from security.debian.org won't
have to update many packages and most updates from security.debian.org
are included in this update.

New CD and DVD images containing updated packages and the regular
installation media accompanied with the package archive respectively
will be available soon at the regular locations.

Upgrading to this revision online is usually done by pointing the
aptitude (or apt) package tool (see the sources.list(5) manual page) to
one of Debian's many FTP or HTTP mirrors.  A comprehensive list of
mirrors is available at:

  http://www.debian.org/mirror/list

Se me ha presentado un problema, tengo instalado Squeeze y estoy utilizando
Iceweasel, por defecto para ver los vídeos flash, me instala los paquetes:

gnash
gnash-common
browser-plugin-gnash

En las descripciones de los paquetes me dice:

GNU Gnash is based on GameSWF and supports most SWF v7 features and some
SWF v8 and v9. SWF v10 is not supported by GNU Gnash.

Si puedo visualizar los videos, pero me consume casi el 80% de procesador
(Core 2 Duo 2.8 GHz), asi que decidi intalar:

flashpugin-nonfree

Con este paquete si puedo visualizar los videos y consume el 20% de
procesador, es aceptable. Pero el problema es que a veces estoy viendo algún
vídeo y el Iceweasel se cierra repentinamente, o a veces trato de ir a una
pagina con algun contenido flash y el Iceweasel se queda pegado.

Así que descargo los plugin desde la pagina de Adobe, lo instalo pero no me
soluciona el problema.

¿Que puedo hacer? ¿Que otro paquete instalo en vez de flashpugin-nonfree?
¿Es problema del navegador?

Les agradecería que me dieran una solución a mi problemas

Yo tengo el mismo problema, el plugin oficial de flash (10.2)  no funciona
muy bien(a mi me mata el pc). le recomiendo que intente instalando
la versión 10.3 beta del plugin oficial o una versión anterior al 10.

	El problema es del flash, que cuando falla tira el navegador. 
Puedes instalar a mano una versión 4 (Beta) de Firefox, que cada pestaña 
es un proceso separado, por lo que al fallar el flash sólo se muere esa 
pestaña, o por instalar flashblock, que se encuentra en los 
repositorios, un plugin que evita que los flash se activen de manera 
automática. Si no están en una lista blanca o pulsas en ellos, no se 
activan.

Instala en tu sources.list el mirror de http://debian-multimedia.org

ademas conseguirás un montón de programas multimedia.

en synaptic veras a la izquierda del paquete que no hay icono de debian. Pues 
no son paquetes de la distribución.

Yo es el único mirror que recomiendo añadir para una máquina en producción

visita la páquina y elige la línea deb para tu distribución y arquitectura 
(squeeze, wheezy..i386 amd64...)

la pones en el /etc/apt/sources.list

actulizas la base de datos de paquetes

apt-get update

e instalas el plugin

flashplayer-mozilla

creo que se llama

Perdón si ya envié este correo pero me parece que no llegó.

En mi caso tuve que desinstalar el gnash y el flashplayer.so 10.0.152 
porque me detenía todo, se cerraba el navegador o se veía cuadro a cuadro.
Tuve que reinstalar el flash 10.0.r45 que tenía en otra distro y con esa 
anda bastante bien. Todo depende de los recursos de tu equipo, los míos 
se están quedando un poco chicos para los requerimientos de la 
multimedia actual.

Si querés probar y no lo conseguís te lo mando a tu privado

Helio também perguntou se ele não cria o ttyUSB1. não cria. olha aí:

acho que fiquei com duas possibilidades: ou o gps garmin etrex não

Mas alguma sugestão?

Tor is one part of the overall equation - you will also need to download 
the polipo package (it used to be privoxy that did the trick, but this 
has changed to polipo).  The configuration is usually straight forward, 
but once you have that done then I'd suggest that you go to the TOR 
website and read the installation/ configuration instructions germane to 
your machine's architecture/ set-up.  Basically though, the config will 
typically be uncommenting (i.e. deleting a # mark) one or two lines in 
the configuration file that concerns socks forwarding.  I'm going off 
memory here, hence the urging you to read the official documentation on 
the website.


Good luck.

 Came across gdebi in my initial research, but I was hoping there was a 
 switch or option that I missed in apt-get, etc. that would do the same 
 thing like the 'localinstall' option does with yum.
 
 So, another front-end for dpkg?  How many does that make now?  
 dselect, apt, aptitude, synaptic, gdebi?  Seems it would be more 
 efficient to add features to an existing front-end instead of writing 
 a whole new one just for one feature.

See wishlist bug #47379 (yes, it's from 1999). I bet there are similar 
bugs for aptitude and synaptic.

AFAICT such a feature is not often needed on Debian because of the huge 
oficial repository and most third parties also providing repositories.

Manually downloading or (re)compiling and installing packages is a mess 
IMVHO. I even went through the trouble of setting up my own local 
repository when I was maintaining my personal version of a few packages.

Firewall rules to block unwanted protocolls on given ports

2011-03-19 Thread johhny_at_poland77
Does somebody has an idea, that what kind of iptables/pf rule must i use to 
achieve this?:

i only want to allow these connections [on the output chain]:

on port 53 output only allow udp - dns
on port 80 output only allow tcp - http
on port 443 output only allow tcp - https
on port 993 output only allow tcp - imaps
on port 465 output only allow tcp - smtps
on port 22 output only allow tcp - ssh
on port 20-21 output only allow cp - ftp
on port 989-990 output only allow tcp - ftps
on port 1194 output only allow udp - OpenVPN

So that e.g.: OpenVPN on port 443 would be blocked, because only HTTPS is 
allowed on port 443 outbound.

Any ideas? :\

Let it do it's thing and reinstall gnome-session and go from there.
gnome-desktop-environment is a metapackage which has a lot of
dependencies including tomboy etc. gnome-session, while also a
metapackage, it has less dependencies giving you a very basic
gnome desktop to get started with.

Re: Re: need help with sed problem

2011-03-19 Thread Clive Standbridge

 i agree with that - the underscore that was used is also valid. you
 might look at proper quoting of variables to avoid this. something
 like cat text.txt | sed -e 's/bbb.*/:$PWD/'  new.txt

The output from that, given Joao's original text.txt, is


:$PWD


The reason is that  and $ have no special effect inside ''.

I would prefer to use some other character for the s command delimiter
as earlier posters in this thread suggested, because it is easier to
read. But another way you can do it is to escape all the backslashes
in $PWD using a shell expansion:

$ sed s/.*/:${PWD//\//\\/}/ text.txt

:/home/clive/temp


You can see its effect on the string passed to sed using set -x:
$ (set -x; sed s/.*/:${PWD//\//\\/}/ text.txt)
+ sed 's/.*/:\/home\/clive\/temp/' text.txt

A brief explanation of ${PWD//\//\\/} :-
${PWD//A/B} replaces all occurrences of pattern A with string B.
For A use \/ - the \ prevents / being treated as a delimiter.
For B use \\/ - the first \ causes the second \ to be taken literally.

I hope this helps.

Clive

How do you expect iptables to tell the difference between an outbound HTTPS

The IP protocol doesn't contain much more information than the IP address.  
The TCP and UDP protocols on top of it don't contain much more information 
than the port number.  Virtually all iptables modules either act at IP 
protocol information or TCP/UDP protocol information.  There was an 
l7filter or l7protocol iptables module maintained outside the iptables 
project that was supposed to scan the data passing over the virtual circuit 
to try and determine the higher layer protocols, but I don't know if it is 
still around, nor if it can tell HTTPS from OpenVPN.  It is difficult to 
impossible to determine exactly what protocol is being used when good 
encryption is in play.

You can change the default in file /etc/default/grub. Edit the

Then run update-grub.

I don't use chain loading, so am not sure how to do that. I think grub2

A note of caution here, from a bystander/lurker. I don't use tor and
googled to find out what it is. Likewise for privoxy and polipo. My
sense of what I found is that privoxy and polipo are two different
packages that both implement the proxy function, but in different ways
with different implications as to security, privacy, anonimity, etc.

I am totally unqualified to judge the importance of this information.

aaah, here it is:

#!/bin/sh

exec /usr/bin/X -nolisten tcp $@
xserverrc (END) 

btw, I'm guessing here, I have no idea if it's the problem.

if you are going from a unix machine to a unix machine I would consider
using ssh with X forwarded, i.e. ssh -X

Tor is one part of the overall equation - you will also need to
download the polipo package (it used to be privoxy that did the
trick, but this has changed to polipo).  The configuration is usually
straight forward, but once you have that done then I'd suggest that
you go to the TOR website and read the installation/ configuration
instructions germane to your machine's architecture/ set-up.
Basically though, the config will typically be uncommenting (i.e.
deleting a # mark) one or two lines in the configuration file that
concerns socks forwarding.  I'm going off memory here, hence the
urging you to read the official documentation on the website.

Good luck.

AG
 

A note of caution here, from a bystander/lurker. I don't use tor and
googled to find out what it is. Likewise for privoxy and polipo. My
sense of what I found is that privoxy and polipo are two different
packages that both implement the proxy function, but in different ways
with different implications as to security, privacy, anonimity, etc.

I am totally unqualified to judge the importance of this information.

For example,
http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/May-2006/msg00372.html


HTH

   


Hi Paul

You are quite right of course - privoxy used to be the standard proxying 
application, but for whatever reason about a year or so ago Tor and 
privoxy no longer played nicely together on Debian and polipo became 
Tor's new best friend, again on Debian machines (can't say about other 
distros).  The inner workings of all of this are beyond me, I confess, 
so this is only from a user's perspective.

aptitude stuck resolving dependencies...

This morning I ran

Resolving dependencies...
open: 16431; closed: 11272; defer: 105; conflict: 54

At this point it kept churning; the number of open dependencies kept

How do I determine what is happening and whether a real upgrade

Debian mini CDs

2011-03-19 Thread Gabor Kum
Hello Everyone,

As a member of the Debian CD project (www.debiancd.org) I would like to
let you know that we are now shipping Squeeze netinst mini CDs for the
i386 and for the amd64 architectures.

We are an independent project to promote the use of Debian
GNU/Linux. Our goal is to give you nice, professionally made Debian
GNU/Linux installation discs that fit in your pocket. The discs
install the base system, any additional packages are then installed
from a Debian mirror site.

We are a non-profit group, not a business. Your payment helps to cover
our expenses for making the Debian CDs and sending them to you
(envelopes and shipping costs).

We give any surplus as donations to the Debian Project.

Please check out our website at http://www.debiancd.org/.

Cheers,

Gabor Kum

Re: tomboy, and mono dependencies in gnome?

2011-03-19 Thread george.stand...@gmail.com
 Why is tomboy in the default basic desktop when installed from the
 netinstall CD?

Using the netinstall CD, you choose what gets installed.  Did you
install the gnome package?

 Let it do it's thing and reinstall gnome-session and go from there.
 gnome-desktop-environment is a metapackage which has a lot of
 dependencies including tomboy etc. gnome-session, while also a
 metapackage, it has less dependencies giving you a very basic
 gnome desktop to get started with.

Actually, gnome-desktop-environment does NOT include Tomboy (or
mono), gnome however does.

Compare:

   apt-cache depends gnome-desktop-environment | grep tomboy

vs.

   apt-cache depends gnome | grep tomboy


So, if you don't want Tomboy/mono you can install
gnome-desktop-environment (or if you want even less, the gnome-session
package).

Good luck,
George

External hard drive with mounting problems

2011-03-19 Thread Jason Hsu
I have a 250 GB Seagate Expansion Portable Hard Drive that sometimes won't 
mount.  I end up having to use TestDisk to recover my files from it, and then I 
have to reformat the drive.  The drive works for a while, and then it becomes 
unmountable sometime later.  I've had this happen with the drive formatted as 
NTFS (original) and ext2.

The messages I get in the dialog box when I use the GUI to mount are Unable to 
mount device and 
Erroriorg.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.UnknownFailure/i.

The drive is listed in GParted as /dev/sdc, and the partition is /dev/sdc1.  
When I try to mount the drive in a shell, I get an error message telling me 
that it's not listed in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab.  This is the case whether I 
try to mount the drive as /dev/sdc, /dev/sdc1, /mnt/sdc, or /mnt/sdc1.

I did once try using the shred command to get rid of deleted files and to see 
if there were any problems.  Shred had no difficulty writing to any part of the 
disk.

What exactly is going on here?  Does my drive have a hardware problem?  What 
tools can I use to evaluate the condition of this drive?

Upgrade to Squeeze and KDE

2011-03-19 Thread Daniel Bareiro

Hi all!

After updating my hosts in my house to the new stable, Debian Squeeze,
I'm thinking of upgrading my desktop to Squeeze.

With my hosts with Lenny in general, except for some things, everything
was working after upgrading to Squeeze, but I worry that something is
broken in the upgrade from KDE 3.5 to KDE 4.4, as this PC is used to
study and work and I wish the minimal downtime.

I wonder what experiences you had to update KDE and its applications to
new versions of Squeeze and the considerations to keep in mind
throughout this process.


Thanks in advance for your replies.

Daniel

I upgraded one machine with KDE from lenny to squeeze and did not 
experience any major issues. However, this was not a very customized 
environment. Actually I'm trying to switch it over to LXDE as it is more 
than enough for what it is currently used and would deal with the 
complaints about KDE 4 being slower.

If you want to play it extra safe you can tell kaboom (the settings 
migration wizard) to NOT migrate your settings and just start fresh. If 
you are not familiar with KDE 4 be prepared for major changes in the way 
things are done although I've read it is possible to bring it closer to 
KDE 3.5

It would appear either oftc or a #debian channel operator placed a blanket

Re: [help-a-newb] adduser okay? (problem with authenticating with gui users-groups manager)

2011-03-19 Thread Brad Alexander
Concur. Unlike windows tools, Linux GUI tools (should) build on the existing
command line tools. So using the command line version should give you the
same effect as using the gui. Case in point, I use apt-get or aptitude
(primarily the latter), instead of synaptic or one of the gui tools
available. For me, its the way I was brought up, and if I am honest, apt-get
install foo is far quicker than opening synaptic, searching through the

Re: raid10 and lvm problem on new lenny install

2011-03-19 Thread Jim Green
Thank you for the excellent explanation!


http://www.gagme.com/greg/linux/raid-lvm.php
from this link I read

The maximum number of physical extents is approximately 65k so take
your maximum volume size and divide it by 65k then round it to the
next nice round number. 

looks like I already have

 Total PE  953799

this is bigger than 65k,

does anyone know the current maximum number PE in debian lenny?

 Well, if pnfs were stable, that would be the thing to use (it'll be stable

If ha is High Availability, I really don't think that I need it.

I'm definitely not in SAN territory here - this is just a small,

Interesting, but almost certainly not what I need:

 MogileFS is not:
 
 * POSIX Compliant -- you don't run regular Unix applications or
 databases against MogileFS. It's meant for archiving write-once files
 and doing only sequential reads. (though you can modify a file by way
 of overwriting it with a new version)
 
 Notes: o Yes, this means your application has to specifically use a
 MogileFS client library to store and retrieve files. The steps in
 general are 1) talk to a tracker about what you want to put or get, 2)
 read/write to one of the places it told you you could (it'll pick
 storage node(s) for you as part of its load balancing), using HTTP
 GET/PUT

I just want a basic setup that will allow me to use my normal tools to
operate on files stored on a different box.

Hi all!

After updating my hosts in my house to the new stable, Debian Squeeze,
I'm thinking of upgrading my desktop to Squeeze.

With my hosts with Lenny in general, except for some things, everything
was working after upgrading to Squeeze, but I worry that something is
broken in the upgrade from KDE 3.5 to KDE 4.4, as this PC is used to
study and work and I wish the minimal downtime.

I wonder what experiences you had to update KDE and its applications to
new versions of Squeeze and the considerations to keep in mind
throughout this process.


Thanks in advance for your replies.

I used Synaptic so I could hunt down all the kde version 3.5.10 packages 
and remove them, that will help with stability, also you maybe 
interested in http://qt-kde.debian.net/ you can install Kde Version 
4.5.3, everybody using 4.5.3 is saying it's the best kde-4 release, it 
sure beats the heck out of 4.4 that comes with squeeze.


I've also used Trinity 3.5.12, it works fine with Ubuntu but I don't 
think it is satisfactory for Debian, to many kdesu and sudo permission 
problems for me, but I repeat, it works fine with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
