RE: [e-smith-devinfo] squidguard returns
Hi Darrell, Don't worry about implementing your ibay webpage into the manager. I can do that part. In fact I can create the ibay and implement it into the manager with a script that I built. I am having a heck of a time with passing variables to my scripts from a webpage. Thanks... and I will be sending the scripts to you shortly!

Any perl wizards out there? Sounds like you've done quite a lot. I'm not a perl wizard at all but I'll offer to take a look. Forward me your scripts and any docs and I'll try to follow along and assist. My simple first thought for testing would be to create a webpage, place it in the ibay to capture the user input to a /tmp/squidgaurd-update file. Then have your scripts read in the file and process the variables. If this works then incorporate everything into the e-smith-manager by borrowing and editing some existing scripts. -- Darrell May DMC NETSOURCED.COM http://netsourced.com -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives by mail and http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org

Hi Guys, FYI! We have a spare/test server with its own Ip address. If you need to test any ideas on 4.1.x E-smith manager, we can assist. Just say the word.

Thanks for the responce... I'm a little bit confused yet on the process of installing tomcat in e-smith... I noticed they have an RPM and a tarball in the tomcat's website, I downloaded the rpm and installed, along with the module for aapache, but I dont know it that worked yet.

[e-smith-devinfo] UPS Software
G'Day All, I ended up installing Charlies powstatd add-on for UPS monitoring. Now following Graeme's how to I got the following results. With the powerstad -t command and pulling or plugging back in the power to the UPS. One of the values does change. Now loading /etc/rc.d/init/powerstad start after this with the ups unplugged to mains power caused a system shut down. Anyway reboot and all is ok. One can't run the daemon and also run powerstad -t at the same time due to a socket conflict. What I have proven is that, both programs can find and talk to the UPS ok. I now have a running system with the daemon running, Pulling the power - did not result in ANY message to the screen about power is unplugged as the how to suggests. Should it? I left a monitor plugged in to the UPS (And server on mains power) and left it running to drain power over night. I hope to go in and find the server shut down today. If it hasn't - any idea's?

[e-smith-devinfo] backup question
I want to backup my e-smith server. I have made a few costomisions to it, like added support for my winmodem, installed php4.0.5, and 1 or 2 other little things. I need to backup EVERYTHING!!! I, unfortunitly, dont have a tape backup drive. Is there a script that i can get that can backup the entire contents of my drive to a tar.gz file? Its something i think i sould start doing cause i have fairly old hardware, and cant realy trust it much. Please help. Thanks. PS. I would like something like the backup from harddrive. Even if there was an option for bootable CD or something, just something that makes a compressed image of my drive, so i can download it of the server and burn to a CD.

I would like to use it as a network printer on > e-Smith 4.2.x. Err, did I miss a release announcement? > Any ideas on how to configure the USB for printers??? Not many, but I'll try to help. USB printers require the USB subsystem, and the USB printer class driver. The modules you will need depend on the type of machine that you have. Intel and Via chipsets need UHCI driver (you can use usb-uhci.o or uhci.o), everyone else needs OHCI (use usb-ohci.o). If you aren't sure, look at the PCI mapping information - UHCI is I/O mapped, and OHCI is memory mapped. If you still aren't sure, load uhci.o and usb-ohci.o. You also need to load printer.o and usbcore.o. E-smith might autoload the modules when you plug in the printer. I haven't actually tried this on my e-smith box. USB printers appear on char 180/0-15. E-smith 4.1.2 maps this to /dev/usb/lp0 through /dev/usb/lp15, which is pretty typical. The USB printer driver is basically a /dev/lpX emulator. You can just use /dev/usb/lp0 instead of /dev/lp0 in any configuration you might need. The only gotcha with some USB printers is that they need magic control streams to switch from parport mode to usb mode. And you guessed it, an EPSON printer is one of them :) It depends on which model you get, but most EPSON printers need the string listed at: http://www.linux-usb.org/FAQ.html#sh3 You can find more information on all kinds of things relating to Linux USB at http://www.linux-usb.org, although support for 2.2 kernels is pretty scant. In fact, using the USB in 2.2.16 might be a bit hairy - I vaguely recall reports of problems that I think were PCI routing related. HTH.
