Re: Cannot run iceweasel on remote host

I have logged into the remote host using ssh -Y remote and at the prompt of the remote host, I ran iceweasel. However it appears that a local instance of iceweasel is started. There is no iceweasel/firefox process at all on the remote host. The only way I could get iceweasel to run on the remote host is by closing all instances of iceweasel already running on the localhost. Is something wrong? If not, how do I run separate instances of iceweasel concurrently? Both the systems run on etch, iceweasel-2.0.0.3 this actualy works both ways. if you dont have a local iceweasel running, start a remote one, then try to start a local iceweasel, you actualy get a extra window on your remote running iceweasel I have not tested this, but iceweasel/firefox use a wrapper script that does a lot of things, you can try to call the binary directly and see if that changes anything it should be called something like /usr/lib/iceweasel/firefox-bin Ronny -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

If I am not going to use an initrd image, and I want to boot Debian from an SATA drive (in a system with no PATA drives and all SATA drives) using a 2.6 kernel, then is it necessary to compile-in the specific driver for the SATA controller or is it acceptable for it to be merely a module? (When doing make menuconfig do I need a * or will an M do?) In particular, if the SATA controller is the NVIDIA nForce4 controller, does nv-sata need to be built-in or can it just be a module? It seems like I've read somewhere that when you want to boot from such a drive then the boot process never makes it to loading modules because it cannot find the SATA drives to begin with, requiring the specific SATA driver to be built-in. Is that right?

But RFC 1035 explicity states that answers to inverse lookups may yield inconsistent data because the IN-ADDR.ARPA special domain and the normal domain for a particular host or gateway will be in different zones. That applies especially to hosts having multiple IP addresses (like the gateways). Yet I've found no example of an IP address resolving into multiple host names when making an inverse lockup on that address. the RFC's dont explicitly deny the use of multiple PTR records. but all books i have read, bot on dns and on bind discourage it's usage. The returned hostnames from the PTR records are returned in a random order. so it's dificult to predict witch is returned. and i don't know of any software that checks anything but the first returned result. with regards Ronny Aasen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Simply create a new normal user called backup on your Debian-Box and get a copy of WINscp... install it on WinME, provide your Dad with the password of the user backup and he can copy the stuff to /home/backup with the windows feeling he's used to ;-) he can't mess up anything (only his own backups :-). just a hint to something i have been using. the cwrsync for windows is a standalone cygwin+rsync for windows. you can run rsync server on your debian. and a bat script on the windows can run the whole backup advantages is that you can put the password in a textfile to avoid user error, and it will backup the changes only so it saves on time and bandwitdh If I could share a Windows printer, that would save me some money. Dad has a fancy color laser. CUPS supports it, but I need to run it as either a Samba share or a network printer. In either case, I keep smacking my face into the same brick wall.
