Restore CD image equiv.

2002-04-02 Thread Chapman, Matt
Hi,

I would like to know if anyone has something that will work for debian
in the following scenario.

I build a server with Debian on it as well as a filter (url) and squid
for caching.  I ship the box.  The customer has a hardware issue and
replaces bad drive etc.  Then needs to restore to the "factory"
defaults.  How could I distribute a cd that installs the os and needed
packages without the user needing to know linux at all.  Much like a
Ghost image or DriveImage.???  Any ideas?

Custom CD-Image of Debian

2001-11-19 Thread Chapman, Matt
Hi:
 
Here is my plan.  Take Tier system approach to a proxy/cache/filter 
setup using debian as the linux distro.  I want to setup a box and then 
slim it down to just what it needs for the "appliance" type of system.  How 
can I then make an image (CD Install) of it so that a user could just get a CD 
matching this hardware (if that is even a problem) and all this would be 
configured already?
 
Better yet that the CD have a gui similar to the Debian one that asks a few 
simple questions that then get written to the appropriate conf files before the 
appliance starts for the first time?
 
 
As a side note:  What language is the Debian installer written in and 
where are any sources for it for examples?  :)
 
thanks for any input...

Title: RE: Mozilla is so slow!  Problem with my upgrade to 2.2r3?






If it were me I would change to woody in my sources.list then apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade.  Then do a apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.x whatever is the newest one.

I am running the latest kernel images on i386 and Sparc and 2.4.9 is working well.

Subject: Mozilla is so slow! Problem with my upgrade to 2.2r3?


I did an apt-get dist-upgrade, to move from 2.1 to 2.2r3, then did an
apt-get install kernel-image-2.2.19, based on a recommendation from this
mailing list.  


My problem now is that when I start Mozilla it takes 50 to 60 seconds
before the application appears on the screen, and all the time I can
hear my hard drive "thrashing."  After that any activity in Mozilla
(such as clicking on "file" or "edit") takes about a minute to execute.  


If I were using Windows I would assume that the operating system got
trashed again and I would reload it for the umpteenth time.  


What could be happening here?  I think I may be ready to buy a set of
2.2 disks because from a beginner's viewpoint it seems that successfully
upgrading the OS to 2.2 was probably too much to expect.  It went very
smoothly (I was very impressed with how easy it was!), but I did get
some messages about what seemed to be housekeeping tasks that needed to
be done as a result of the upgrade.  Some of them related to files that
simply don't exist on my machine, so maybe something is seriously
wrong.  


Anyway, I thought I would post this question here just in case it's an
obvious, easily fixed problem.   Otherwise, I'll just re-install from a
new set of disks.  By the way, my computer is a Pentium 200 MHz, with 32
MB of RAM.  Is this too antiquated to run Mozilla, or perhaps Gnome or
Galeon eventually???


Thanks,
Peter Christensen

Kernel-image on intel

2001-09-28 Thread Chapman, Matt
Title: Kernel-image on intel





Hi,


I have made an attempt at doing a apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.9-686
This is on a DELL PowerEdge 1400


It downloads just fine and starts the install.  It then gives me this:


The following NEW packages will be installed:
  kernel-image-2.4.9-686 
0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0  not upgraded.
4 packages not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 0B/7919kB of archives. After unpacking 22.0MB will be used.
debconf: (not preconfiguring packages since apt-utils is not installed)
(Reading database ... 11164 files and directories currently installed.)
Unpacking kernel-image-2.4.9-686 (from .../kernel-image-2.4.9-686_2.4.9-1_i386.d
eb) ...


You are attempting to install an initrd kernel image (version 2.4.9-686)
This will not work unless you have configured your boot loader to use
initrd.
As a reminder, in order to configure lilo, you need to
add an 'initrd=/boot/initrd' in your /etc/lilo.conf
To get rid of this message, put `do_initrd = Yes' in /etc/kernel-img.conf.
Do you want to stop now? [Y/n]



Is this as easy as it seems simply putting initrd=/boot/initrd in the lilo.conf


Also I do not have an /etc/kernel-img.conf

One of the advantages of Squid is that it logs all site accesses.  You
can also block sites on a per-domain basis, IIRC.


I recently went through a year's worth of logs, mostly curious to see
what my profile looked like.  It's pretty straightforward to see what
sites are being hit, the most popular of same, and/or
increasing/decreasing trends.  If necessary, such sites can be added to
blocklists.


Peace.

I believe that's either incorrect and/or the bug reported is an oldish
Perl problem.  I remember dealing with something similar
myself...lessee...I'd had "en-US" rather than the correct "en_US".

My LANG settings are:

/home/karsten/.bashrc:export LANGUAGE=en_US
/home/karsten/.bashrc:export LANG=en_US

Matt,

Got your point ... there is no  denying that presentations made with
StarOffice are almost like Powerpoint, if not better.

The problem which I face is going around to different parts of the
country for seminars, lectures etc.  I have to depend on systems provided by
the host .. at most places these are linked with video projection systems
for larger audiences. 

I do not have a portable, to lug along with me.  I normally 
carry my material on disks ... and everywhere the OS is MhBwin, and nowhere
have I found StarOffice for Windows installed.

I am quite conversant with HTML, and make my presentations at home with
vi, quickly switch to "X" and view the output and make changes as necessary.
The process is swift ... 

I used to use IE on the M$ systems earlier,  but after the release of
Opera-5, things became easier. I can test things on Linux  at home, and
know that the Win-9x output will be same. God bless Opera !

I do not say that HTML presentation it is better   but 
definitely it is different . Try  frames or  animated GIFs 
in PowerPoint or StarOffice, and you will know what I mean.

Ofcourse, you do not run the risk of gnome cropping up !

My personal preference is to use HTML presentation on 
a browser. Totally platform independent.

Opera 5 supports  full screen (F11 toggle), and it is 
*actually* the "full" screen with no browser borders,
(unlike IE which still has the browser frame around).

This is true for both the  Linux and Win-9x versions.

All you need is a  .gif "next" and "previous" link on
each individual html "slide". 

The  only  problem  that I face, is  that, I need to 
carry my  Opera-5 CD to all venues, and uninstall it 
on  completion of the  presentation.  Opera-5 is not 
that common and is not available on most systems.

With x86 architecture I would either 
   
   apt-get install kernel-image

or

   apt-get install kernel-source

where one has to find the full name of the desired kernel-image and 
kernel-source on packages.debian.org or by grep-available or similar
methods. I guess that this is similar with other architectures.
Of course when you get kernel-source you'll have to compile and install
the kernel yourself. kernel-package can help here a lot.

In case you knew all that, what exactly do you mean by 
`how do I get the new kernel?'?

VPN Client

2000-11-30 Thread Chapman, Matt
Hello,

Wondering what good VPN client is avail. to the linux world.. I need to
connect to my Micro$oft network and connect to shares via samba... may even
need to find a solution for connecting to the win 2000 servers via terminal
services without installing win 98...  I am curious if a linux citrix client
would do the trick?
