And how do you use it ? Because no documentation seems existing about 
this module. I have installed it, but what's the next step ? I know it 
is  module but is there a way to mount audio CDs?

No option seems existing with vnstat. (man vnstat)

I don't see the purpose to get an output in MBytes because the output
would be almost unreable for big values... if you really want that,
convert yourself the values (example : 1.84*1024) to see the values in MB...

Somes solutions exist. That depends on one thing, this is always the
same IP or a new at each attack ?

You can use iptables to drop packets from attacks' IP(s) or you can put
IP(s) into /etc/hosts.deny.

You can also try to submit an abus to IP's ISP (just do a "whois" on the
IP).

To test your MX, you can try this http://www.dnscolos.com (or on another
website, try "dns report" on Google), this will give you ideas to know
if your MX is ok or not.

For your hostname, you should put "server.paris.fr" and for
mydestination, try with this : $myhostname localhost, localhost.localdomain

I advise you to search for a documentation about "postfix installation".

You just need to install openssh-server on your server, and you need to 
add system users with adduser.



2) have web space on the apache2 webserver such as $HOME/public_html
so they would be http://www.server.org/~user

  


Each user has to create the folder public_html in his home.

And, for apache, read the apache documentation : 
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/howto/public_html.html



How exactly can I setup these 2 things?

Also how can I restrict the users to *only* their $HOME directory so
they cannot cd or ls any other directories or files on my filesystem?

  


You can't really do that, maybe with a chroot, but that solution is not 
realy securited.

I don't know for that question, that is the same thing on my personal

What do you mean by "the local dns" ? You manage your dns directly in
local ? With bind ? Or do you use ISP's DNS ? If you use bind, restart
it for reloading the bind cache.

You can do that. There are many solutions, I suggest you to use sfdisk
and cp, we admit, you have two disks, on a same computer, the first disk
with data and the second disk with nothing, see my example to copy
partitions and to copy data :

(do everything as root)

1 - We copy partitions :

sfdisk -d /dev/hda | sfdisk /dev/hdc

2 - We copy all data for / :

mount -t auto /dev/hdc1 /mnt/
cp -dpRx / /mnt/
mount -t auto /dev/hdc2 /mnt/home
cp -dpRx /home /mnt/
and other partitions...

The advantage is that you don't need to boot with a live CD but the
second disk has to be on the same computer.

Anyway, if you have SATA/SCSI disks, debian (or Linux, in general) calls
them sd* (sda, sdb). Because hd* is for ATA disks.

I don't understand why it's "groot" and not "root" ?

Like this :

titleDebian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.26-1-486
root(hd1,0)
kernel/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.26-1-486 root=/dev/sda1 ro quiet
initrd/boot/initrd.img-2.6.26-1-486


At boot, when you get "error 23", you should type "e" two times. Try
other values for "root=(sdb,0) " and type "b". Do again this
manipulation if you need.

Use smartcl. (the package to install is smartmontools)

For an IDE hard disk :

smartctl --smart=on --offlineauto=on --saveauto=on /dev/hda
smartctl --test=long /dev/hda
[You wait for time that has been indicated with the previous command)
smartctl --attributes --log=selftest --quietmode=errorsonly /dev/hda

For a SATA hard disk, you just have to add the "-d ata" option to each
command.

I don't know if I really answer to your question, but for the network,
it's the /etc/init.d/networking script. As all init scripts. you can do

Yes, you can. But at your own risks because the package isn't maintained
by Debian Before, you have to read the documentation of your .deb for
the dependencies of the package for example. If you prefer no risk, wait
for the official debian package. In lenny for OpenOffice 3, I think it
will be soon available.

For installing a .deb got from the web, you can, as root, use the dpkg
command. Just do "man dpkg" for more information, the option is : dpkg
-i yourfile.deb

You should search on Google. There are lots of helps about that. If you

Problem with a netopia switch

2008-08-23 Thread Shams Fantar
Hello,

I currently try to set up a switch on my lan that has a linksys router.
If I don't use the switch (therefore, router <=> computer), no problem
of working (the computer gets an ip from the dhcp, for example,
192.168.1.2), great !

But If I add the switch to the lan, the computer gets an ip like
192.168.1.110, and this ip shouldn't exist because the router only gives
ips from 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.50...

My interfaces file is :

"iface eth0 inet dhcp[...]"

If I do "ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.2", the ip comes back to
192.168.1.110... Same if I do "ifdown eth0" and "ifup eth0".

Any ideas so that the computer gets the good ip? (the problem could come
 from the switch ?)

And I would specify, I've already tried "iface eth0 inet static", same
problem.

I thank you for you answer. I tried with an Ubuntu live cd, and the

you're right !

Hi,

I'm trying to install my scanner canon canoscan 3000F. Few years ago, I
wasn't able because there was no driver for this scanner, now, it
exists. And I've found this[1], and the scanner is in this page, so,
that confirms what I said.

- - Xsane doesn't find my scanner : "no devices available".

I think I have to install the driver of the scanner, but, how to do ? I
don't find it in the CD-ROM for installing this scanner (the cd only
works under windows, of course but I read that if xsane doesn't find the
scanner, we need to look for the driver on the CD-ROM...right ?). And I
didn't find information in the sane documentation.

I'm writing the iptables rules for a machine, a desktop, so, on this
machine, the users can listen to streaming (like the BBC, or other
radios...). Therefore, I need to open the good ports to allow the use of
streaming. And I can't write this rule because I don't know the ports

Ok. After searching and after many trying, I can't connect my phone via 
USB to the computer.


There are variuos issues here.  If "dialup" is disabled in your phone,
your computer won't see it as a modem.  In my phone I had to enter the
code "##DIALUP" to enable it.  That part works for me but my carrier
has disabled so many features that to this day I can't use the phone
for anything except to talk and as a modem.  Bluetooth to connect to
the computer has been disabled, web access has been crippled so that
it only works with Verizon's portal (and that means $$$ every time
you use it), email only works with their email gateway (more $$$), etc
etc...  I haven't even been able to get my pictures out of the phoen (it
has a camera) because I refuse to be held for ransom so I don't send
them by email to myself.  So what your carrier does is as important
as the capabilities of the phone.


Too bad. :-(

Thank you for your help, I hope that this problem will be fixed soon. ;-)


Have you checked the list of compatible phones at bitpim.org?  There
might be something you can do.

A.




I've just done some tests/trying with BitPim, but that doesn't work. 
Moreover, my phone isn't supported by BitPim.


Thanks for your suggestion.

Of course, the glibc-2.7.1 is required, it's a virtual package, what to do ?



You shouldn't install packages with dpkg directly. Instead add a source 
for experimental in your sources.list and use


aptitude -t experimental install locales

That is, if you want to try my solution. There is always more than one 
way ...

[snip locales problems]

Welcome to sid, these are just typical troubles which you can expect 
anytime. I'm not sure what the "correct" solution would have been in 
this case, but I just installed locales from experimental (which also 
pulled libc from experimental), but I don't mind living on the edge ;)

Sid users should generally be able to fix their own systems. (It's not 
100% fair of me to say this because I fixed my first sid troubles also 
with the help of this list).


Yeah, I know, but I tried many solutions for these problems, but none 
has resolved the problems.


 Sorry, I can't help with mysql, though I 
recall long ago the 'stop' action would work if the server was *not* 
running.
  


Resolved, to resolve the problem, I did, in a MySQL prompt :

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'debian-sys-maint'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED 
BY '' WITH GRANT OPTION;

Hi !

I try to pass a machine from etch to sid, so, I've changed the 
sources.list file, all updates were been done.


But now, I've some problems.

* Firstly, I've problems with my locales, for example :

perl: warning: Setting locale failed.

What do I think about what? I have already said it appears to be
a minor bug somewhereunless of course you are running hdparm and setting DMA
with it.

  


There is always the same problem, even if the DMA option is activated 
via "hdparm -d1 /dev/hda".


I conclude after some tests :

- Either it is a bug which is not reported. (Why not report it?)
- Either it is a hardware problem and so the hard disk (hda) shows weakness.
- Either this problem can't be resolved via fsck, badblocks, hdparm, etc.

I use debian etch and the version of the Linux kernel is : 2.6.18-4-486. 
I still have the same problem with another kernels. So, I don't think

Try updating Etch.  Ensure that you have the linux-image-486
meta-package installed, which depends on the linux-image-2.6-486

which is 2.6.18-5-486. 


Done.


  Perhaps the bug has been fixed.
  


No, it has not been fixed (if it's a bug(. I did not find bugs[1]

Never a problem, but DMA timeouts continue. I have come to the conclusion it's
some obscure bug, perhaps in the IDE module. It *never* affects
anything else as the drive is fast and so far reliable. If/when it dies
I'll change my opinion.

According to SMART, the drive is fine.  If the filesystem badblocks

So I don't know why you're having DMA errors.  Hopefully someone who
knows more about SMART and the ide driver can shed some light.  Perhaps
its a driver issue.

hda: DMA timeout error, is it a problem ?

2007-08-22 Thread Shams Fantar

Hello,

I've currently a problem with my hard disk but I'm not sure that it is 
really a problem. So, I'm asking you if it's really a problem and if 
there are solutions or not. :-)


I've just made a backup of /home/ in case that is a problem with the 
hard disk...


When I'm starting my desktop and it is starting on the kernel, here are 
the logs[1].


I ask me if this message is a problem or not :

Aug 22 11:03:20 sithare kernel: hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x61
Aug 22 11:03:20 sithare kernel: hda: DMA timeout error

Aug 22 11:03:20 sithare kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown



Is it a problem ? Likewise, this slows the boot...

- I've made a control of the hard disk with the smartctl utility 
(smartctl --test=long /dev/hda), see the result[2] :

- And with the hdparm utility[3].

If there is truly nothing in /var/log/mail.log, it implies that sendmail

Hi!

I am running Etch. I need the revtex4 class. In what package of the
tex-live family is it?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=revtex4&searchon=all&subword=1&version=stable&release=all

http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=tex-live&searchon=all&subword=1&version=stable&release=all

Apparently, no package contains 'revetex4' or 'tex-live' in its description.

Look the official site of revtex4 : http://authors.aps.org/revtex4/

Maybe that I am mistaken me..

You said tar -cvf ? -c stands for "create", not compression... tar -cvzf
would do a gzip compression. Maybe your archive isn't zipped at all.

Dear Debianists,

What is the difference between libtktable-dev in Ubuntu and 
tktable-dev in Debian?  Are they pretty much the same package but with 
a name change or is their something more subtle going on here?


I can't seem to find libtktable-dev in the Debian package world.

You can use aptitude show  to have more information for a package.

So, you will have the difference between theses packages.

Ah ok, i think this is a misunderstanding...

The your archive file home-20-06-2007-05-55.tar.gz  is corrupt, not a
single file in it.
"unexpected end of file" means that gzip cannot handle the zip file
correctly, not a file in it called "file". Gzip is a stream compression,
it doesn't know anything about the format of the file it (de)compresses.
Maybe you can extract parts of your file using gzip -d -c  | tar  x.

I recall similar complaints on the list: how many extensions have you

Me too, I have this problem, I use IceWeasel with etch. IceWeasel slows 
the system, but I have no solution. I tested several solutions, but I 
don't have compiled him. Why not compile IceWeasel ? Even if I think 
that it's not a solution.


If somebody has a true solution. I am taking ! Because I must close 
IceWeasel when it slows the system.

Re: New server: Sarge or Etch?

2007-02-03 Thread Shams Fantar

Michael Ott a écrit :

Hello Marco!

  
in the next few days I'll have to replace an old server running Debian Sarge with a new machine, 
and I was wondering: maybe I should directly install Etch on it, now that it almost reached its 
"stable" status?


I know I could install Sarge and then upgrade to Etch afterwards, but a previous upgrade from 
Woody to Sarge was not totally successful, so I'd prefer to avoid this, if possible.


It's a production server so stability is important, although it mostly serves as a Samba PDC and 
file sharing machine, mailserver only for internal (LAN) mail, and some other minor stuff (HTTP, 
Jabber...).


Etch is nearly stable. I will use that one.

Yes, i use debian etch for a production server, it's stable ;-)
