Re: vsftpd on Debian

Hi.

 Having an issue setting up vsftpd. In order to avoid an unsupported record

 That will resolve that issue, but then the client can't upload any files.

 Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Did you edit /etc/vsftpd.conf? By default, upload is disabled there.

 OK.  Now on refracta wheezy xfce. There isn't even a powerdev group listed
 and all five shutdown options are present and functioning.

 In addition to pm-utils and xfce4-power-manager, I have upower and
 libupower-glib1 installed.  You might also look at acpi-support.  Though
 it's not installed here, your hardware might need it.

Ok. upower and libupower-glib1 were already there. I installed acpi-support, 
but no change.

On my Wheezy / XFCE installation, graphical root login is not blocked - I did 
not expect that. When I login as root, the XFCE logout dialog presents two 
additional buttons (hibernate + ?), and the shutdown button is functional.

So I think, it's a configuration problem.

Any idea? XFCE configuration or window manager? I use XDM on this machine. The 
Sun with Squeeze is running KDM.

Thanks,

   Hartwig

Wheezy, XFCE: system shutdown

2012-11-19 Thread Hartwig Atrops
Hi.

I have a configuration problem with Wheezy and XFCE and didn't find the 
appropriate docu:

The Log-Out-Dialog (from the upper panel) offers Log Out, Restart 
and Shut Down icons. But only Log Out is usable, the other two are 
disabled.

How can I enable the Shutdown button? Log out and login as root again only for 
shutdown - hmm, it works, but ...

Wheezy: substitute for wu-ftpd - recommendations?

2012-09-17 Thread Hartwig Atrops
Hi.

I am looking for an ftp server for Wheezy. Usually, I install wu-ftpd, but 
it's missing in Wheezy.

debian.org, Software Packages in wheezy, Subsection net lists lots of ftp 
servers, but I do not want to test them all :-)

I need a simple server for my private network, but with support for anonymous 
file upload (my backup scripts work that way). 

Any recommendations?

 I remember  I didn't once or twice yesterday,  but after that no
 connection. Is there a special configuration, activation  or else ???

In order to check the connection, I probably would start a serial console on

I don't think so.

Maybe this helps, I don't know if I have a Rage 128 in my G3 Mac.

In this case, at the OK prompt you have to say

boot net

Re: String Manipulation and a Need for RS-232

2011-08-30 Thread Hartwig Atrops
Hi.

   I have this nagging feeling, though, that there may be a
 better way to write this program since C is not as good at
 string manipulation as some other languages. In my program, you
 have to do a lot of grunt work just to be sure that the 15TH
 field really is the 15TH field in the string one is sending out.

Why not use regular expressions? It's included in the GNU C lib. Not as nice 
as in Perl, but it works:

#include regex.h

 Concerning the first answer: let's say that I copy everything from

 /home/merciadriluca/, will the (previous) content of
 /home/merciadriluca/ be overwritten?

No, nothing will be erased. Umount your new disk - the old data will be there 
again. I.e. - if you want to reuse the disk space, you explicitly have to 
delete data in the old directory.

You need a telnet deamon on your linux machine. Try

apt-get install telnetd

Hope the package is the same with sarge. On Lenny, apt-get search has:

telnet - the telnet client (you need that to connect to other machine)
telnetd - the telnet server (you need this to give other machines access to
