I'd like to store debian-packaged apps such as gcc, x11, xemacs etc on the server, yet keep some functionality on my local drive so I don't need the server all the time. what is the best way to do this under debian? I thought of exporting/mounting /usr on the server, but will that cause major problems? What if I have a local /usr directory? Will I still be able to access it when not using the server? if you move /usr, you won't have functionality on your local drive Personally, I'd move /usr/X11, because that's where the big heavy stuff is, and none of it is essential /usr/local as well, if you have anything there. To make it work properly, install packages on the server first, then install the same package on the client, with the directories mounted. Also, what does the group think about using a /apps directory instead of /usr ? I know it's not filesystem standard, but it seems this might get around a lot of problems of mounting /usr remotely. I'd say a lot more trouble than it's worth. Really, that is what /usr/local is for. Things that are not integrated into your system to the point that they need to go in /usr/bin might be seen as a general rule-of-thumb for what is in /usr/local. If you have a big app like Staroffice or Applixware, it will probably be in /usr/local, if it is not in /usr/X11. Well, actually, /local usually means local to the machine but in practise, it meant the above. btw I have about 500MB of local space and up to 4GB on the server. More than enough. I should definitely say that the above would work well, especially since I have done it with 170 / 540 before :) 7~he 7~hought /|ssassin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

There are numerous ways of doing this, but I want to tell you about an interesting project I was involved at at the local highschool. The highschool was a little different in that SAMBA filesharing was an essential part of our setup, but other than that, it was an IP-Masquerading ppp Gateway. Each user had a home directory on the server, which they could mount from any of the workstations using samba. now the smbd (which accepts the samba connections)has an option to run a script, either as that user, or as the superuser, when a particular shared directory is mounted, and this script can be given the IP address of the calling machine, and the username of the client as arguments. So I used this script to trigger the appropriate ipfwadm commands when the user mounted his or her home directory, and a similar script was run when the user unmounted the home directory, which would undo each of the rules applied previously, and store the results of the accounting rule. Seemed to work quite well once some of the client-side bugs were ironed out, and if, or anyone, wants a hand with setting such a system up, I'd be glad to hear from you. -7~he 7~hought /|ssassin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

If we distribute a binary package that consists of the original source, the debian patches, and an installation script that patches, compiles, and installs, then surely we are not distributing a patched binary? Users are patching it for themselves :) Alternately, we could just make it an installer packae that says please have orig,patch.dsc in /usr/src, just like the netscape installer says please have netscape.tgz in $TMPDIR, and give explanations, or even automations, on how to get it there. Well, that is my suggestion, and I am fairly confident that there should be a way to slip it or something like it past UW's license. On a side issue, doesn't anyone use elm? Are there reasons why it is all mutt vs. pine? On a freshly installed system that I have not downloaded pine onto, I usually use elm. I can't see any disadvantages of elm, at least on the surface, and it seems a little more extensible than pine (no doubt due to licensing :) I am considering whether I should just switch to it so I can stop supporting retentives like UW.

Re: How to uninitialise partition?
If your old drive was for DOS, does DOS see the partition anymore? For example, is there still a C: but it's unreadable (Invalid Media), or is there just no C:? I've accidently been in a fdisk (I think it was linux) and deleted one of my DOS partitions on accident, and got REALLY lucky because I booted off a DOS bootdisk and ran fdisk and re-created the partition of exactly the same size before and all my files (FAT and all) were still there. I ran scandisk and lost 4096 (one block) somewhere, but I just disregarded it and counted my lucky stars. If there is a C: (all this time assuming you old files were on C:) and it says Invalid Media or something like that, try UNFORMAT.EXE - maybe you were lucky and there was a image on the disk (a duplicate of the FAT table) that's still there (I know that lately some programs make a duplication of the fat table - Win95's command.com does I think. How do I know? One time I was using partition magic and it said that my duplicate FAT had inconstancies with my real one. Weird..)

dpkg and shadow

First off thanks for the numerous replies to my chmodding question :) Is there a way to make dpkg give me a list (output) of ALL the packages (installed and not installed) along with their descriptions? Even just the short one-liner descriptions? The reason I'm asking is because occasionally I want to search for some type of package by a keyword but I think that the / command in dselect only searches the package filename. I wanted to do something like % dpkg --print-all-descriptions-etc | grep -i shadow or something... Maybe I could go to the /var/lib/usr/local/bin/hoopdeha/dpkg/debian/wherever and do a grep -i shadow **/* ? I dunno...

Or should I just delete them? Shadow came with replacements for all of these, like useradd and groupadd etc, right? (I can't remember where to find a list of all the files those packages made...) ...

In either case, deleting E: shouldn't have an effect on C: or D:. It's just a question of how many logical drives will the programs allow you to have. You might also want to check out a program called Partition Magic - it's a retail DOS program that allows you to resize partitions, change drive letters, clone partitions, and even change the FATs, from FAT to FAT32 for example.

I have a Sound Blaster 16 which is usually on Address 220, IRQ 5, DMA's 1 5, 330 for Midi, etc. I've read the Sound-HowTo document, and downloaded the VoxWare Sound drivers 2.5, but not had much luck so far. The installation instructions aren't that helpful. One would assume that I'm going to have to rebuild the kernel, etc, so where can I find a copy of the source for it? Do I already have it but I don't realise it? You probably don't already have it if you didn't choose to install it, but you can check /usr/src/linux anyway. (If /usr/src/linux is there, then you have it.) If you don't have it, you can get it using the dselect program. It's under kernel-source-2.0.27: Opt develkernel-sourc 2 2 Linux kernel source. I don't know if there's a stable version with debian past 2.0.27, but my dselect still says 2.0.27 and I just updated it from ftp.cdrom.com today. Anyway, once you get/have it, cd /usr/src/linux; and type 'make menuconfig'. If that doesn't work, then you don't have ncurses installed, and type 'make config' instead. (All without the little 'quotes' too.) This will let you only compile in what you need, and it will get rid of the time consuming searching for all that hardware you don't have. You can also install audio support. (Make sure to install /dev/audio support! If you don't, you'll have a lot of problems. (I overlooked /dev/audio and just went directly with SB16 only, and I had a headache - you have to install them both) Once you're done with make [menu]config, type: make dep; make clean; make zImage; I'm not sure what to do with zImage, because I don't use loadlin. I guess ask someone else about that. (with LILO you just type make zlilo instead) Help! Maybe I should've used the copy of UNIX System V release 4 in the attic, 'cause we've got stacks of books... but this is more fun! :) Naaa. Reformatting is GOOD for you! I've successfully got LOADLIN working now anyway, which should stop me constantly changing the MBR to swap operating systems. Phew. Can one assume that if I rebuild the kernel I will have to copy it across again? Why use loadlin? LILO is much better.. I don't know anything about loadlin, but I know that if you use lilo you won't ever have to fiddle with MBRs again. And finally... on bootup it's still looking for all kinds of hardware that I don't have, and I read somewhere about how to remove it... can I assume that since I may have to rebuild the kernel to get sound support, then the other hardware support is in there too, i.e. a rebuild will get rid of it? Yep. Cheers. Have fun, RtB. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fido: 2:2500/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Security Issue
If someone else owns the directory that the file is in, then they basically own the file allocation table and can rename the file to anything they want, or remove the filename alltogether. It's basically like they own the filecabinet, and the other person's file is in the cabinet. Even though they may have a lock on the file so that nobody can read it, the person who owns the cabinet can throw out the file. Isn't that how it should be?

Re: /bin/sh != /bin/bash ? [was Re: zsh vs bash]
Maybe either the scripts are so old that they were never updated when newer shells besides bash came out, or maybe they assumed that all newer shells would be bash-compatible, or maybe the people who wrote them are just stupid :) Not everyone's a genius you know :) On Wed, 12 Mar 1997, Steve wrote: I set my system shell to zsh as well, and replaced all the /bin/bash in /etc/passwd to /usr/bin/zsh, but when I tried to move /bin/sh to point to /usr/bin/zsh, all of the /etc/init.d/* scripts blew up.

Is there a way to do this? It seems kind of pointless to have six gettys running when I'm only using 2, and it's a pain when I am using up all 6 VCs and need more. 3) Speaking of Alt-Uparrow, is this the same thing as 'kbrequest' in inittab, and why doesn't either of them work? Is there a way I can bind keys to make initd do commands? 4) Is there a way to disable the Visual-Bell?

Do you or does anyone else get these errors right after installing Debian? I would imagine that at least for the first day or so most everything would be error free and ready to go, but maybe not?

Could this be causing a problem?
