login problem [half OT]
squeese I'm installing a server for a small business. Last week, a user could get her email. She's on a Mac; the server is Debian. I tried to get connectivity between her Mac and the server so she could keep some stuff on the server. Now her email is gone. She can ping and telnet, but ssh and email don't work anymore. I can connect with no problem, but she can't, nor can new users I create. This happens on her machine and on a laptop I've connected to the LAN. I'm suspecting this has something to do with telnet and SSH/IMAP using different ways of validating passwords. The firewall is OK or telnet wouldn't work, and the only things I've tried are telnet, ping, IMAP, and SSH. I also suspect that something I did yesterday trying NFS and Netatalk broke things. Can anyone shine a little light this way?? Like, am I right that there's a password problem, and what can I do about it?

Absolutely right, I and possibly others had the impression that the
same network address might be in use on both sides of a router, and that
this was beyond your control.
There are other private network addresses than 192.168., the 16 x
172.16. to 172.31. networks each have over 65,000 addresses available,
and for some reason these networks are not often used in corporate
systems. The 10. network is an /8 ('class A') and has 16 million
addresses, but I prefer to avoid that one, as I've seen a few odd
results when used with smaller subnets.

That's what they are there for. "can't make any assumptions" here is your mess! Where is the responsible person to talk to, how your network is designed and which subnets are assigned and which are still free for use? But the phrase "multinational corporation" does not instill hope. I worked for several of those and usually the network is handled by college aged kids who graduated from the geek squad. They click through some menues on M$ server machines until it somehow works, but they have no clue what they are doing. Usually the networks are flooded with broadcast packages and ICMP.

Can't. My local "modbus" subnet must not be visible from the outside. Actually there are several production tools in use here that use similar subnets with 400+ nodes (=IP addresses) in just the manner I'm describing. There's no point in exposing all that to the outside network, and it's also a potential security and reliability issue. Just imagine a multi-million dollar tool out of production because the DHCP server is down, when all those modules need to talk to is the local controller. > You could also use another private address range like 10.x.x.x for the > Modbus devices.

What's the mess? That the Intranet contains 192.168... addresses? Anyway, this is a big multinational corporation, and I can't have any situation where the Intranet "sees" my Modbus devices, and I can't make any assumptions about addresses being or not being in use in the Intranet. I understand that from the viewpoint of my control PC I can't have any duplicate addresses because that's how IP addresses work. That was my basic question, and it was answered. So as long as I put my modbus stuff into an IP address range that I don't need on the intranet, and I make that address space "invisible" on the intranet side using a netmask, I'm fine. > The devices on your modbus should be assign a unique IP address which > MUST NOT overlap with any other range already in use at your place.

Re: Display hurtful on LCD screen with Wheezy
I have used the standard settings from the screen grab, then I saved them them using shutter as png (so, I don't really know if the magnifier has compressed them before hand). Another thing is that I have currently wiped of the Debian partition that caused me the troubles reported in this thread. I have installed Fedora 17 (both with XFCE and Gnome-Shell) instead to check if that made a difference relatively to the pain I encounter and that did it. I don't experience any pain with the displays (both on the LCD or with the Samsung SyncMaster) when I use Fedora, so my problem seems to be restricted to purely Debian-based distros. /lionel On 10/03/2012 12:34 PM, Joel Rees wrote: On 10/2/12, Mark Allums wrote: On 9/30/2012 7:32 PM, Joel Rees wrote: (Mark, did you set the screen grab to give you raw images or compressed?)

You've been following a bit of a red-herring there, but that's only to be expected. Virtual Terminals, themselves are controlled by the kernel, but most relevant is the program that runs on the virtual terminal and asks for your login details. This is called a "getty" and is configured in /etc/inittab. You should see a series of lines such as: 1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty1 2:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty2 3:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty3 4:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty4 5:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty5 6:23:respawn:/sbin/getty 38400 tty6 The first colon-separated field is a label. The second states which run-levels the program should run in, the third is a command to init and the fourth is the program to run. So, as you can see, in my case I get six VTs in runlevel 2 (my default). So, firstly, check that you have these lines. If you don't have that many, then, obviously you can't switch to those that you don't have. Next, make sure you're pressing "CTRL+ALT+Fx" (where x is the number of the VT you want to go to). If that still doesn't work, try the "chvt" program from the "kbd" package. "sudo chvt 1" SHOULD take you to VT 1. If that works, but the key-combination doesn't, then you may have a keyboard configuration issue. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

As of Debian Squeeze the ipv6 support is integrated at kernel level and no longer a module. Just do a "ifconfig eth0" or "ip addr show eth0" and you will always see an ipv6 line. Putting ipv6 in \etc\modprobe.d\blacklist.conf to prevent ipv6 support also no longer works as some may have noticed.

Well, not quite the same situation here: putty -> tmux instead of your rxvt -> tmux, but I don't THINK the terminal is at fault here (especially as you've said you've run at from within a bare rxvt). You might want to look at your tmux.conf to see if you've got a bad line in there, or you've "setenv"d something when you actually meant to use it plain. As for the specific problem, I believe dashes aren't allowed in variable names. When 'at' was invoked, it copied in your environment so that the script you gave it could be run fairly similarly. When the time arrives, it tries to set those values again but, as you can see, borks. signature.asc Description: Digital signature
