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?

I got a step further. I installed the unstable versions of dpkg and dpkg-dev and the package was made no problems. ButI installed the package and rebooted, but it didn't get past the lilo prompt. I get the lilo prompt, choose the new kernel, but an error message tells me WRONG LOADER, GIVING UP... Now what?!!! I even reran lilo just in case to no avail.
