NIS and system users
A nasty question... I inherited a network with several servers installed with the same non-packaged program. All servers and clients use NIS. That programs requires the creation of some users and groups for installing and operating. My antecessor in the systems' administration created these users and groups as system ones, all with IDs around 500. Obviously NIS doesn't seem them, so I am reduced to managing passwords and all such stuff redundantly, besides creating these accounts all over again in each new server. I thought it would be more reasonable to convert all these users and groups to NISable non-system ones, over ID 2000. I tried to use usermod to change the IDs, and then I remade NIS maps. Only that I couldn't log in anymore, su complained about expired accounts. usermod and passwd couldn't do anything. Eventually I returned the users and groups to their original numbers, and everything returned to the usual. Now I'm thinking about erasing the accounts, and recreate them from scratch as non-system ones so NIS can deal with them. I will have to change all files to the new owner IDs, but that was a given already. Someone suggested just scratching NIS and going LDAP. I'd rather Kerberos, but think both are quite unnecessary since I'm not really worried about security and NIS has been just doing fine. So, opinions, tips? Would erase the accounts and recreate them work? Thanks in advance! -- Leandro GuimarÃes Faria Corsetti Dutra +55 (11) 5685 2219 Av Sgto Geraldo Santana, 1100 6/71 +55 (11) 5686 9607 04.674-000 SÃo Paulo, SPBRASIL http://br.geocities.com./lgcdutra/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

VIA SATA and the 2.6.0 kernel
Have installed 2.6.0 kernel in a VIA KT600 machine with a common IDE disk. Now I do have a SATA disk on the same machine, and am trying access it. Thing is that in dmesg, just after ide0, I get some lines about VIA8237SATA, and several lines after that a libata line. Nothing about sata-via nor anything the like. I gather from http://people.zeelandnet.nl/pa3gcu/sata.htm I should get something more specifically about SATA. Anyway if I try cfdisk /dev/sda I get an error about not being able to open the disk drive. When booting there is a message about missing ide-detect, which seemingly wasn't compile for 2.6.0.

GNU Emacs should use LANG *and* LANGUAGE, LANG being a simple preference set by localeconf (apt-get install localeconf) and LANGUAGE being a preference list, due to the uncompleteness of several locales. localeconf will put your system preference where it belongs, namely /etc/environment. /etc/bash.bashrc is good only for bash, so it is not a good idea for X11 apps launched for icons and the such.

Somehow it thinks you should have a parallel port printer. So you will need to find out why and eliminate this configuration. Perhaps cupsd is picking it from some /etc/printcap or other lpr configuration file? Anyway, I'd advise you to hook your printer anyway, so that CUPS can find it instead of the ghost parallel port...

Galeon troubles
I am using Debian GNU/Linux testing/unstable/experimental on an iBook. Several users enjoy this machine alternatively each in their own X server, and have been using Galeon since 1.2 times. Now Galeon has simply stopped opening windows for me, but not for other users. Even if I launch it from the console, it prints no messages neither to the console, nor to /var/log/syslog nor to ~/.xsessionerrors that I could find. Some five galeon-bin processes appear with ps -ef | grep | grep galeon, and all but two are killable with killall galeon-bin; these two die only with killall -9 galeon-bin. A core file appears but it means nothing to me. Any ideas, please? -- Leandro GuimarÃes Faria Corsetti Dutra <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> +55 (11) 9406 7191 Belo Horizonte, Londrina, SÃo Paulo +55 (11) 5686 9607 http://br.geocities.com./lgcdutra/ +55 (11) 5685 2219 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
