Can I install Debian operating systems for money?

Hello. Can I install Debian operating systems for money for my clients?
Does this require any permission? I read the FAQ, but it says about CDs,
the information seemed outdated to me.


Re: USB media install has wrong partition

2018-09-15 Thread John Roman
Thomas,
Thank you for clarification on the layout, as it is in fact most helpful
in understanding GPT cruft.  As a Gentoo user, I can in fact boot
system-rescue-cd and Knoppix as EFI USB.  Sadly, this seems like one
more nail in the coffin of reasons I need to upgrade my PC.  I cannot
reproduce the boot error on a dell system either.

Thank you for your support and time.

Re: USB media install has wrong partition

As an update,
Ive tested devuan, debian, and ubuntu media on a newer laptop (2015)
which seems to recognize the EFI partition and boot normally.

my desktop (2012) does not seem to understand 0xEF...I wish I knew why.

Re: USB media install has wrong partition

2018-09-15 Thread John Roman
Correct sir, I am having issues installing to an asus sabertooth 990
motherboard. namely, the boot override menu fails to recognize the EFI
media as a proper EFI bootable target.

As I understand, a Protective MBR may be located at LBA 0 (i.e., the first 
logical block)
of the disk if it is using the GPT disk layout. The Protective MBR precedes the 
GUID Partition Table
Header to maintain compatibility with existing tools that do not understand GPT 
partition
structures. is this what the live image does?

its perhaps my hypothesis that this protective mbr entry is stymying
attempts to boot a true EFI partition.  the specification ive referenced
is from 2017, and my motherboard is from 2012.
http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/UEFI%20Spec%202_7_A%20Sept%206.pdf

0xEF is covered, as you rightly confirmed, in section 5.2.2.

USB media install has wrong partition

2018-09-14 Thread John Roman
greetings,
the USB install media for netinst and live both create a dos partition
table on dd, and cp.  This will result in media that can only be booted

o2cb/ocfs2 : cluster is offline after reboot

2017-09-18 Thread Roman Serbski
Hi,

Anyone here using ocfs2 cluster with Stretch? I can't get it to be
online during boot time for some reason, hence ocfs2 partition can't
be mounted. This is an upgrade from Jessie, where everything was
working just fine. My setup consists of two nodes.

$ uname -a
Linux QSRV01 4.9.0-3-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.30-2+deb9u3 (2017-08-06)
x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ dpkg -l | grep ocfs
ii  ocfs2-tools1.8.4-4
amd64tools for managing OCFS2 cluster filesystems

Pretty much default /etc/default/o2cb:

###
O2CB_ENABLED=true
O2CB_BOOTCLUSTER=web
O2CB_HEARTBEAT_THRESHOLD=31
O2CB_IDLE_TIMEOUT_MS=3
O2CB_KEEPALIVE_DELAY_MS=2000
O2CB_RECONNECT_DELAY_MS=2000
###

and /etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf (with tabs present):

###
cluster:
heartbeat_mode = local
node_count = 2
name = web

node:
number = 1
cluster = web
ip_port = 
ip_address = 192.168.0.4
name = QSRV01

node:
number = 2
cluster = web
ip_port = 
ip_address = 192.168.0.5
name = QSRV02

heartbeat:
cluster = web
region = 
###

/etc/fstab

###
/dev/drbd0   /var/www ocfs2   noauto,noatime   0   0
###

After the reboot, no /var/www is mounted. I don't see any traces of
o2cb/ocfs2 in dmesg except one entry:

Sep 18 14:24:38 QSRV02 kernel: [  145.104344] ocfs2: Registered
cluster interface o2cb

The status of both o2cb and ocfs2 services is inactive (dead) with the
ocfs2 cluster offline:

$ service o2cb status
o2cb.service - LSB: Load O2CB cluster services at system boot.
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/o2cb; generated; vendor preset: enabled)
   Active: inactive (dead)
 Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8)

$ service ocfs2 status
ocfs2.service - LSB: Mount OCFS2 volumes at boot.
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/ocfs2; generated; vendor preset: enabled)
   Active: inactive (dead)
 Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8)

$ o2cb cluster-status web
offline

If I execute 'o2cb register-cluster web', the status changes to
online, and I can 'mount /dev/drbd0' without any issues:

$ o2cb cluster-status
Cluster 'web' is online

As a workaround, I added the following into /etc/rc.local, which did
work, and /var/www is mounted fine after the reboot.

###
o2cb register-cluster web
sleep 30
mount /dev/drbd0
exit 0
###

Any hints would be greatly appreciated, but I have a feeling that
/etc/default/o2cb is somehow not processed during boot time, or
O2CB_ENABLED=true (and/or O2CB_BOOTCLUSTER=web) are ignored
altogether.

Thank you.

I don't. mdraid is proven technology which just works.

Is radwho broken in debian jessie?

I've tried 2 variants:

1. update from working debian wheezy (and saved all the configs from wheezy)
2. clean install of jessie, enabling radutmp in accounting section and
still nothing.


radutmp module is getting loaded:

including configuration file /etc/freeradius/modules/radutmp

Any ideas?

I am running jessie on both virtualbox 5 host and guest.  The host
networking is using eth0 interface and is fine.  On the guest, I have 8
virtual interfaces on the physical eth0.   When I bring up the guest, the
networking service starts, yet the network is unreachable.  Then, when i
restart the networking service, the network becomes reachable.

Looking at the syslog, I didn't find anything glaring.

Would anyone have a troubleshooiting suggestion or, perhaps, a solution.

Just generate a random password during install long enough to be not able
to remember it. Do not write it down, continue installation.
At any given time you need the root session, just get the disk drive from
your server and connect it to another machine, then just replace the hash
to one you know password for in /etc/shadow. Place your drive back and boot
up. After you finish the work, change your root password again to some
crazy piece of random.

;-)

Seriously, you have to trust someone to achieve goals. So accessing server
via ssh keys is pretty normal and secure + ldaps auth of course
(centralized account management), so if someone leaves, just disable his
account. sudo supports ldap auth, kind of on group level, so if user even
got into a server for some reason, he can't become root, because his
account was deleted and not in sudo enebled group anymore.

After you configure the ldap and sudo for this scenario,  just disable
password auth and  root login in ssh conf. Also setup firewall to enable
ssh from known IP addresses only (here comes VPN into the game, if needed)
and move SSH port to something else, but 22. You will be as safe as ldap
and ssh and ssl are (exploits, exploits.. they're everywhere, you can't be
100% secure unless you disconnect the network cable from your server,
remove the keyboard and USB ports)

So basically security is all about trusting. You HAVE to choose whom (and
what) you trust.

Re: stuck on 7.7 and unable to upgrade :(

Hi,

Thank you for an answer.
Got my problem solved. It was due to priorities for apt. Had the line
"stable" in the priority file, while wheezy has moved to oldstable.

My advice would be MATE. Runs perfectly on D8 and may be installed during

Debian Jessie as KVM guest on GlusterFS backend

2015-07-14 Thread Roman
Hi,

I'm having problems with installing D8 as KVM guest on GlusterFS storage
backend.
I run 4 different proxmox (debian based with RH kernel) nodes and got this
problem on every of them.

Versions:

qemu-server: 3.4-6
pve-qemu-kvm: 2.2-10
glusterfs-client: 3.6.4-1

No matter what I do, I'm not even able to complete the installation
process, it stops on random step:

1. on mirror select (just suddenly says, that mirror is not accessible or
there is no right version of Debian located)
2. on package installation step (just says that it is not able to solve
deps as some pkg was not configured, usually it is python-gtk2 or smt like
that).

Once I was lucky enough to install the base system, but ended up with
unstable system: apache did't run due to missing modules, while they were
at their places, seemed to me like corrupted. Also it seems to me, that
files are getting corrupted while installed on glusterfs storage backend.

I can install D8 on local storage without problems.

There are no error logs on glusterfs side.

Debian 7 installs and runs fine. Ubuntu 14.04 LTS installs and runs fine.
Centos 6 installs an runs fine.

Any ideas? This has to be solved somehow. I'm also in contact with
GlusterFS users list and wrote to devel list, but was not able to solve it.

I used glusterfs 3.5.4 before, was the same problem.

Where should I report this issue to get it solved?

Debian8 as guest VM on latest proxmox with I210 on board and glusterfs

2015-06-18 Thread Roman
Hi there,


I've got strange problem: I'm just not able to install jessie on Proxmox
with I210 NIC onboard and glusterfs as storga backend for VM virtual disks.

If I use raw storage type, the installation process takes around 4 hours.
If I use qcow2 storage type, then installation process aborts on pretty
random step, but most often on the step of choosing the mirror. Once I had
luck to install it, but the system was not usable: corrupted binaries, even
apache2 was not able to startup and some sh commands said, there is no such
file.

This only happens to D8. D7 installs very well. The kernel on Virtual Host
(proxmox) is:
2.6.32-39-pve

Few times I've got luck installing D8 and those VMs still working. So seems
like problem is only during the installation.

I've got other nodes with another NICs and there are no such problems.
I did tests with iperf between gluster server and proxmox node.. no
problems.

Any ideas?

Writing files with formatted name

I need to write files with name format {5 digit sequential

Is there a utility which would allow me to copy/move/put a file with the

Something similar to what logrotate is doing.

Re: umask has no man page?

2014-11-01 Thread Roman Czyborra
Dear Carl Fink,

my unpleasant experience so far is that our package maintainers are keener
on keeping their bug closing rate appear very fast in the statistical
competition than in understanding and catering to your visions of
user-friendlines. Unless you mind disappointments try that path also. Your
path of mailing the nntp://news.individual.net/linux.debian.user community
looks more promising to me who myself also had to learn it the hard way in
my Unix1 semester that certain actions must be shell builtins and couldnot
be forked out as i coming from a CP/Msdos background expected to can "tee
ueb.bat <<<'cd ~/unix1/ueb $1' && chmod +x ueb.bat"  i am encouraging you
to file an upstream wishlist "reportbug bash" against our gnu bourne
against shell nntp://news.individual.net/gnu.bash.bugs that the shell
builtins should have direct links in the Unix Programmers' Manual
file:/usr/share/man/man1/ and+or even betterand constructive wikicraft up
copyleft texts that would answer the question you had or that pop up in
nntp://news.individual.net/comp.unix.shell every so often.  19th century
Berlin Professor Doctor of Medicine Rudolf Virchow tended to answer to
students like you in his lectures that their questions were so good that he
would not want to insult them with his bad answers.

I am running wheezy with postfix mail server.  It appears that ll
system emails are going to r...@domain.com.  I don't remember if I set
it up when installing os or when installing postfix.

How can I change this address from root@domain to some other email address?

Thanks in advance

Installing onto a laptop can be problematic as each model as its
own quirks and idiosynracies. Without knowing the model we can only
guess.


Actually I did mention it was an Acer TravelMate C100 in the original
post...




There is a specialised list for laptops:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-laptop



I didn't want to ask the same question on two lists.  My experience with
the Fedora laptop list was less than wonderful -- we'll leave it at
that.


To answer my own question, yes it is possible to install.

But you can't run it.

After rebooting I get a "GRUB Geom error".

No amount of booting from a rescue disk and attempting to install grub
onto /dev/sda seems to work.  The install didn't generate any errors so
there's no error code to report.  I know there isn't much that can be
done without the syslog and dmesg output (while running in rescue mode)
but at this time I'm going to have to just put my TravelMate C100 on a
shelf and move on with life.  Sometimes the hardware really is just too
old...

That's too easy mate :-) Try to install LiLo instead of grub if you 
don't want to struggle against the Geom error. Boot from install cd, 
chroot into your newly-installed environment and apt-get install lilo, 
I'm sure you know the drill.

I realize this system is _NOT_ going to be a performance machine.  I
plan on using it for text editing (in laptop mode using keyboard) and
taking handwritten notes (in slate mode) -- it's a TabletPC that used to
run Windows XP.  WinXP SP3 is now so large and slow it takes up to 5
minutes to load from a power-on (the system was developed and deployed
before there even was a service pack for WinXP).

I really like the EMR (electro-magnetic-resistive) pen on this device
and would like to make it usable again.

I know Fedora (at least version 17 and 18) has checks in place to
prevent installation on low memory systems.  Does Debian have a similar
restriction?

I was previously running Fedora 16 on much more capable hardware (Tecra
M4) but a catastropic system board failure has me trying to resurrect
this old TabletPC (Acer TravelMate C100).




Hi Steven. I'm sure you will be able to install Debian  7, but 
unfortunately neither KDE nor GNOME will be usable with such amount of 
memory. If I were you i would choose Openbox WM, you can try XFCE also, 
but I'm in doubt. I've just tried to run Debian netinst CD in my 
virtualbox with 256MB and the installer works fine. Good luck ;-)

Well, 00:1b:77:80:2d:b9 is indeed the WiFi's NIC. So why can't I get to
the Ethernet, and why does everything I see on the Internet (when I'm in
Windows of course) say that I must obtain an Intel 3945ABG driver
because it's non-free? "...Come to me and fall on thy knees, and I will
set thee free!"




Hi again Mark,
I'm not sure why all the articles you've found require you a special 
driver(though it can be a serious reason for this). But i think that if 
you have wlan0 interface you do not need anything else on your system. 
There are a lot of software with GUI(NetworkManager, Wicd, ...)which 
could help you to manage your wifi interface, but I think you can read 
about it later when you find some time. To get internet working you can 
use wpa_supplicant tool, it is a CLI tool, but it is very easy. At first 
you should create a config-file with such content:

---
network={
ssid="home"
scan_ssid=1
key_mgmt=WPA-PSK
psk="very secret passphrase"
}
---
Rename this file as wpa_supplicant.conf. I think that content is more or 
less clear and you can adjust these parameters according your own needs. 
Then you can start your wi-fi card by command:


sudo /sbin/wpa_supplicant -cwpa_supplicant.conf -iwlan0

I think the command is also easy to understand. I hope that after these 
actions you'll get your wifi working till next reboot. Probably you will 
need to assign an IP-address manually to your NIC.


I'd recommend you to read the man pages:
1) man wpa_supplicant
2) man wpa_supplicant.conf
And download an excellent book which you'll find here:
http://debian-handbook.info/
You can read it from time to time when you are in a public transport and 
I think it will be a kind of an eye-opener for you.

Considering the fact that there were a few major vulnerabilities in JRE

downloading it straight from oracle.com, because the version from
testing should not be used due to security issues. Or did i miss
something?



OpenJDK is always going to lag behind in Debian. If this bothers you, go
upstream.

My solution: I dropping my last "needs Java" service, and I'll be
dropping Java along with it.

Hi Thomas, I also have b43 on my HP laptop, my kernel version:
uname -a
Linux debian-ws 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.35-2 x86_64 GNU/Linux
and
lspci -vnn
06:00.0 Network controller [0280]: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 
802.11b/g LP-PHY [14e4:4315] (rev 01)

Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:1508]
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 17
Memory at d210 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
Capabilities: 
Kernel driver in use: b43-pci-bridge

Why do you use rc.local script and what for do you need this string in 
your rc.local:  /sbin/modprobe -r b43 ?


I use b43-legacy driver which was downloaded from this site: 
http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43, and it works like a 
charm. You can try to choose an appropriate driver for your system, if 
you think that your current driver doesn't work well.

openjdk version in testing is too old.

2013-02-23 Thread Roman V.Leon.

Hi mates.
Please advise, why openjdk-7 version is too old in testing?
Debian testing repo: 7u3-2.1.3-1 0
Debian experimental repo: 7u15-2.3.7-1 0

Considering the fact that there were a few major vulnerabilities in JRE 
recently, I don't see other ways of installing JRE on Debian except for 
downloading it straight from oracle.com, because the version from 
testing should not be used due to security issues. Or did i miss something?

Please show me the way, how to solve these problems.

Hello.
Please provide more information. What have you already tried to make it 
working? There are a lot of manuals in internet how to install a 
Graphics Driver on Linux platform.
As for your sound, what you see when are trying to launch 
alsamixer(launch in terminal), are there any errors?

Good time of the day Tore,
I'm very glad that you have untied that tricky knot :-)

Hi again.

I found the error.
We use a checkpoint firewall, which supports the use of "captive portal".
This so that a user can not use connect a cabel into our intrenal network and 
surf away without signing in against the active directory.
We activated this feature approximate 1 week ago.

The problem is that we set the network this should cover 255 adresses to far 
/23 instead of /24.
Our network is of today like this:
users on this segment: 192.168.0.0-255
Servers on 192.168.1.0-255

Whole network set up as 192.168.0.0/23

So the captive portal blocked and faulted the apt-get update command.

The thing that concerns me is that i had full connection agains the net, i 
could ping external machine and i also could run the wget command outwards with 
the files beeing transmitted.
But other traffic as apt-get update was partial blocked.

No logging in the firewall showed the errors. So the troubleshooting was not so 
easy as it should be...

But then again, entirely my fault.
And as soon as i set the "captive portal" to only take out the dhcp range for 
the users everything should be ok again.

But thanks for helpfull troubleshooting ;)

Hi Tore, could you try to download any file from repository using "wget"
command? I'm recalling that once i had a problem - i could ping sites, but
couldn't download files, the problem was caused by wrong MTU settings on a
router, I'm not sure that this is your case, but just in case try to
download something using wget, maybe we will closer to the root of the
issue :-)

Re: loopback device not configured automatically

2012-11-15 Thread Roman V.Leon.
Hello my friend, it is very strange that your /etc/network/interfaces is 
empty, you should use the file to configure your interfaces and as far 
as I know - this file is not regenerated by any service. Please see man 
5 interfaces and you will find the information how to setup your 
interfaces properly, it is quite simple if you need common settings.



Hi,
 i am having trouble with my network manager,
when i do `ifconfig` i can't see loopback device although it shows my
machine's ip ,mac address and other info.
also,i cant perform
`#ifdown eth0` , ` #ifdown lo ` ,`#ifup eth0` ,`#ifup lo`


i get following error

root@localhost:~# ifdown eth0
ifdown: interface eth0 not configured

~
root@localhost:~# ifdown lo
ifdown: interface lo not configured



my "/etc/network/interfaces" file is empty,if i manually add following
lines in interfaces file everything works fine.

---
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

on normal system above settings are populated by itself(may be some
service is doing it) in "/etc/network/interfaces" file.

but on my system it's not working automatically ,do i need to enable any
service to have this feature

xrandr dual-screen question

2012-10-16 Thread Roman V.Leon.

Hello all.
I use dual monitor configuration on my notebook. One screen is 
notebook's screen and second screen is just an external monitor with 
different resolution, which connected to notebook via VGA cable. All 
settings were made with help of "xrand" util, I use the following script 
when the desktop is loading:

---
xrandr --output LVDS --pos 1920x312 --mode 1366x768
xrandr --output VGA-0 --pos 0x0 --mode 1920x1080
xrandr --output LVDS --primary
---

The problem is all applications which use full-screen mode, are working 
across first and second monitor, but i would like that they go to 
full-screen only on one monitor. Please advise how I could do it? Thanks 
in advance.

   ^^ FYI, I don't see this version at
   http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=xserver-xorg-video-radeon


Did you install the non-free firmware along with the radeon driver? Did
"Heroes of MM V" report any errors or is performance simply lacking?



I have this chip in my Lenovo G555 laptop, purchased in March 2010.
When I first got the laptop, I was running Fedora 13, and I eventually
tried the fglrx driver. The whole thing was a nightmare. It seemed to
break with every kernel update. Trying to manage it outside the normal
package management was not easy. (It didn't help that the maintainer
of fglrx for RPM Fusion was months behind at that time.)
I had the same issues I had even pined a kernel version in 
/etc/apt/preferences to avoid rebuilding the fglrx-driver, but in the 
end it didn't save me.




I finally moved to Debian Squeeze using the open-source radeon driver,
and things have been great ever since.

I'm not a gamer, I grant you, but performance of the radeon driver has
been excellent. I'm running Wheezy now, and it's still performing
great.


It is really important because i can't eat, i'm always in a bad
mood, i'm bad with women and i'm suffering from insomnia without my
old good games :-))) Thank you in advance.



If it's that important to you, why not install Windows alongside Linux
and boot into it to play the games?



I second the other comment -- for big-time Windows games, keep a small
Windows installation on your system.


Thank you Steven and Darac, I think you are right, it will be the best I 
can do in this situation.
If be honest of course games are not a real problem for me, but I just 
can't understand Ati's politics.
I can't understand why is free support, I mean those people who make 
open-source driver,
is much better than commercial support, it's beyond me. I beg your 
pardon for my English.

Re: Looking for an emacs replacement

2012-09-25 Thread Roman V.Leon.



Hi,


Subject: My app-defaults won't work for emacs any more
Date: Tue, 4 Sep 2012 01:25:20 + (UTC)

I haven't updated my emacs for quite a while and today when I update it,
I notice that the new emacs is not following my app-defaults settings,
which has been working for quite a long time.


The time has come.  I had always frowned upon how much space
emacs is hogging my system, and how little I'm actually using it, but
better the devil you know than the devil you don't, I've been put up with
it until now, when all my nice settings about it are totally lost.


Time to look for an all purpose editor to replace emacs. Last time I
checked, all editors that based on the engine that notepadd++ is based on
are not there yet.

The only thing that emacs has while others don't is its folding more,
which let you define your own folding tag, and can fold a section on and
off within a split of second.

So, any greener yard out there that support folding (hide/show a region)?


PS. I'm long time emacs user so please don't start with how good vim or
its alikes are. Please.

Thanks




Hello Tong,
Try `Scite` maybe you will like it, though it is also need some tune to 
be usable, and of course it is not a combine, so to speak, like emacs.

Apache with TLS 1.2 support

2012-07-24 Thread Roman Pavlík

Hello,

since Openssl 1.0.1 was migrated to testing, there is support for TLS  
1.1 and 1.2 in Debian.


Unfortunately, apache2.2 has no support for ciphersuits from TLS 1.1+ in 
"SSLProtocol" directive.  But apache2.4 alreay has.


I understand that apache2.4 has too much new untested features to be 
migrated to testing. In addition, there is freeze now.


But is possible to take patch concerning SSLProtocol directive apply it 
to Apache2.2 in testing?


It would be very useful to have full tls 1.2 support in stable Wheezy.


Thank You



P.S.: Should I post it as bugreport ?

But after closing the game the right monitor turns on again and all

Hello Markus,
i have two screens and at the beginning i was trying to use native "amd 
control center" dual head setup(i have an ATI card), and there were some 
problems which are similar to yours. But after i read an article about 
"xrandr" util, i switched to it, because it's easy to setup and not so 
buggy as fglrx. You can try to play with xrandr also, but do  not forget 
to save your pretty xorg file.

What's interesting, problem does not occur in the LXDE session, and it
appears only in one of my machines - the one which uses the "VGA
compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics
Controller (rev 02)"

Other machines - with newer Intel graphics chipsets work normally.
Whet can be the reason and cure for this problem?


Hello, Wojtek.
Please try to use "vesa" driver in your xorg.conf, it will allow you to 
make sure that this is a vga driver issue (and maybe not a hardware 
problem).

Mathew, all, i have found the source of the problem:
If i plug a cable into my wired NIC, my wireless card will be blocked.
That's how it works, i have never seen such things before, and i can't
find special BIOS option to change this strange behavior. Laptop model is
HP 625. I think this can be marked as "resolved" :-)

Nonstandard .deb package management/apt problem: create archive with updateable packages for system not connected to internet

2012-01-12 Thread Fiedler Roman
Hello List,

Perhaps someone might know a solution or at least where to start searching for 
a solution by myself. The problem:

A system isolated from internet should receive standard distribution package 
updates. Since the system cannot fetch the packages from public repositories or 
internal mirrors, some way to create an archive with all necessary .deb 
packages would be nice. The archive is then transferred to the machine via e.g. 
usb.

Would it be possible with a scheme like that?

* The list of currently installed packages is extracted from the isolated host

* On another host with internet access, the list of installed packages is 
compared to the current package list

* Only the packages newer than the ones installed are fetched from the 
repository

* The fetched packages are used to create a local file-base repository (e.g. 
with apt-ftparchive) and this data is copied to the isolated machine

* Standard update/upgrade on isolated machine using the local file repository 
as source.


Is this the best way to archive the goal?

Are there tools or a howto available on how to extract the package information 
from source, use it for fetching ?

Thanks,
Roman

No ethX or lo on interface after reboot on Squeeze as VMWare guest.

2011-05-01 Thread Roman Khomasuridze
Hello kind people,

I have really weird problem. I have Squeeze system running as guest on ESX
4.1. Debian system is in cluster (by means of VMotion) and HA. somehow
VMotion transferred my squeze system from one host to another (Inside
cluster). After restart, Debian has no lo or eth0 interfaces, but from
VMWare i see that network adapter is attached to my guest debian, once I run
ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1 and ifconfig eth0 xx.xx.xx.xx everything goes to
normal again.
My interfaces file looks ok, and there is nothing suspicious in logs (or
maybe i couldnt find)...


Any help, or tips will be greatly appreciated.

Re: Upgrading from Squeeze testing to Squeeze stable

Thats weird.

when you upgrade system, it does not necessarily install new packages: I
have Squeeze system I upgraded from etch install, e.g. software-center is
not presented.

what am I trying to say is that, when you upgrade system (no matter is that
testing to stable, or stable to testing upgrade), upgrade process just
install new versions of already installed system, and does not pull new
software packages, unless it is absolutely needed.

In your case, when you installed squeeze, shotwell was not part of newly
installed system, upgrade or dist-upgrade won't pull it. dist-upgrade will
just hm,  upgrade

How to monitor interface traffic usage per source?

2011-04-08 Thread Roman Khomasuridze
Hello kind people!

Not sure if Subject describes what I want but I'll try to explain (sorry,
English isn't my native language, so bare with me, please).

I am running Debian Squeeze as a proxy server with Squid on top. It serves
as proxy to more than 500 users..
What I want to do, is to monitor traffic usage PER user. Of course I can get
total traffic usage from Cacti, Nagios, Zenoss, but I am unable to determine
what traffic uses each user.
I am aware of Lightsquid, but this doesn't quite fit my needs...

I could possibly write script that draws RRD graphs, but Squid SNMP-MIB
doesn't provide information needed for me, and unfortunately my SNMP
experience is very, very small, so I'm not sure where to start.

Ideally, I'm searching for Cacti plugin (or other monitoring solution) that
can analyze and graph traffic usage on Debian machine PER source.


Any tips, suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Again, sorry for my English and Thanks in Advance!!

Regards

Roman

Well, That's quite a big transition. I remember KDE 4.x reached testing at
version 4.3 (I guess).  I seriously doubt that gnome 3.x will appear in next
stable release. But anyways, I might be wrong.

Also if anyone was interested or looking forward to using it

Personally - no. I already switched to Xfce.

Hi,

here is repository:

deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian etch main contrib non-free

I guess, if you have CD1 this will be enough, just install it and then
extend with above repository.

Re: Cannot use USB floppy drive in Squeeze

I, actually, used unetbootin and squeeze live cd and it worked great
for me.  Just make sure to format the usb fat32 before using
unetbootin.
