Debian and Cybercash?
Has anyone tried to install the cybercash module on a debian system. It is supposed to work on a red hat system, but since it is a .tgz, we'd figure to try it on debian. We get pretty far except that it gets stuck on host name lookups. It calls remote addresses, and if I hardcode these remote addresses into the /etc/hosts file, then it works. If I rely on DNS, then it doesn't work. DNS works for all other applications.

libshadow.a ?
Hi, Looking for libshadow.a. Does not seem to be in Debian 1.3 as I checked the Contents file. It was in the experimental shadow package in earlier versions. Can anybody tell me where it is?

Timestamping Error?
Hello my favorite mailing list I do this in succession within seconds of each other: endo% date Wed Jan 15 23:33:46 PST 1997 endo% touch hello endo% ls -al hello -rw-r--r-- 1 endo staff 0 Jan 16 00:26 hello endo% If you notice, the timestamp is almost an hour off. Any one have any clues or have experienced this? Running Debian 1.1./1.2 hybrid.

Re: net-pf
Got this too, but for me the errors occur when I start apache with virtual domains. Any ideas anyone? Roger With the recent upgrade to kernel 2.0.27 and diald 0.14-8 I'm getting the following messages in /var/log/daemon.log: Jan 11 15:56:34 gbr modprobe: Can't locate module net-pf-4 Jan 11 15:56:38 gbr modprobe: Can't locate module net-pf-5 I learned how to shut them up by adding alias net-pf-4 off alias net-pf-5 off to /etc/conf.modules, but this seems that it only cures the symptom rather than the cause. Was this a reasonable thing to do, or do I have something incorrectly configured, or is there a bug? Bill Wohler [EMAIL PROTECTED] ph: +1-415-854-1857 fax: +1-415-854-3195 Say it with MIME.

Re: shadow password
root:x:0:root,your loginname ... I don't like that. It seems unsafe to me. There's gotta be a better solution Currently, I am putting in special users in /etc/suauth but I only know the syntax for making su ask for the current users passwd, and not root's. Would like to prompt it to ask for root's password. Workaround anyone? Roger Endo yep, its safer to but the usernames in suauth looks like (file /etc/suauth): root:ALL EXCEPT login1,login2:DENY or root:ALL EXCEPT login1,login2,GROUP root:DENY watch out! keyword GROUP let the parser know that all words behind GROUP are group names - only the : escapes. the examples let the users login1 and login2 and all users in group root (2nd examp.) to get root access by enter the roots password, all others will receive the message access denied. root:login1:NOPASS root:login2:OWNPASS root:ALL EXCEPT login3:DENY let the user login1 get root access without passwd the user login2 have to put in his own passwd and the user login3 have to use the root passwd all other user cant get in so if you want the users login1 login2 and login3 to be promted for the root password you use: root:ALL EXCEPT login1,login2,login3:DENY hope that helps ciao Helmuth (irc: Pvppet) __Blasch Helmuth,Graz University of Technology, Austria \/ Computing and Information Services Center L\in/uX Steyrergasse 30/Parterre (CE04), 8010 Graz, Austria \/ Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel.: + 43 316 873 6883 (FAX 7699) -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Seems like a shell user can learn a lot by snooping around in /etc (i.e hosts.deny, hosts.allow) Thanks, Roger -- ~~ Roger Endo President, Warp 9 Technologies LLC SBnet, Internet for Santa Barbara [EMAIL PROTECTED] 805-961-0150 ~~ -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
