[expert] struct rusage
I have already sent you a mail regarding this, but i think it has been lost. I have tried to compile octave 2.0.16 and ssh 1.2.7 with mdk 7.0, but the compiler produced an error message regarding struct rusage, which doesn't seem to have a well-defined size. I wonder if anyone of you has ever had any such problem, and if it's a problem with egcs or glibc. -- Aequam memento rebus in arduis servare mentem...

Re: anRe: [expert] Kernel configuration to support audio (mic and speaker)
Bill&Virginiasince TiMidity++-2.5.1-2mdk.i586.rpm is on your Mandrake 6.1 distribution cd then why would you need to download it? In fact, are you sure it wasn't installed when you did your original installation? Also there is an associated package called timidity-instruments-1.0-1mdk.noarch.rpm on your cd that also should have been installed. It is needed for playing midi files as well. Anyway, to get netscape to play midi files embedded in a web page you need to install a plug-in like plugger or ump in addition to timidity.

[expert] One more question and a thanx too
Thanx for everybody for the answers regarding the hosts.allow and hosts.deny files... I got them rectified... However, I have one more simple (?) question in regards to users privledges. As per the instructions during installation I create a different or new user other than root. However, I've been using root all this time for my configuration and learning of this system. I've been told time and time again that I shouldn't be using the root, so I went into linuxconf to change the permissions of the one user I did create. I wanted to give that user SuperUser access, the ability to run linuxconf, and view the system logs. However, after setting these options, and loggin in as that user, I'm still restricted. I cannot run linuxconf, nor can I peruse the /var/log directory. I've gone back into linuxconf as root and the changes I made for that user still exist as I set them, but none of them are in effect. I even made the user of the root group to no avail... could somebody help me out either by telling me what I'm missing, or at least direct me in the correct direction for solving this little mystery? thanx Joseph E.

Matt, Your suggestions were very helpful. I have previously compiled my kernel specifying compiled sound, Changing that to modules and running sndconfig got me the greeting from it. I could not hear the Midi file. I have downloaded TIMidity++ but do not know where to install it. Can you tell me? Should this solve my Midi problem? Many thanks, Bill
[expert] Monitor config Problems
Hello, I have recently attained a MAG 570FD monitor to use with my laptop. I can't seem to use the highest definition for the monitor. For instance, I can get the 1280x1024 resolution to work on 8 bits-per-pixel (bpp) but it will only do 1024x768 with16bpp and even less with 24bpp. My question is, is this a vodeochip problem? I only have 4M of video memory. More bpp means more memory needed right? If you put pencil to paper you get 2,621,440 megabytes for the 1280x1024 resolution in 16bpp definition. Well within the 4M memory capacity. Here are the stats: Videochipset is Chips and Technologies 64. 4M video memory. Monitior is a MAG 570FD Man Resolution 1280x1024 Displaycolor unlimited Pix Rate 103MHz nominal Input signalVideo:analog, 0.7vp-p, 75 ohm Sync: seperate TTL level composite TTL level Scanning Frequency Horizontal: 30-70 KHz Vertical:50-130Hz When I setup X-config it tells me not to probe memory and not to set a clockchip setting. Most of the data on the video chipset can be found in the XF86Setup documentation.

You shouldnt have to set it to get netscape to work. Im running 4.7 (and have run numerous other versions) and never had to use the variable. However, you can set it (in your shell initialization script, for example) to point to the java40.jar located somewhere beneath the netscape lib directory (/usr/lib/netscape/java/classes/ on my machine). Good luck, Kevin.
Re: [expert] Looking for more detailed information on installingLinux Mandrake with Promise Ultra 66 card.
When you run the installation program, answer "yes" when it asks you to search for a scsi card. It'll detect it and ask you if you'd like a boot disk created. Keep in mind that after the install, you'll always need this boot disk to boot up to linux. Or you can patch the kernel with the udma66 patch after the installation.

iTOOL wrote: > > If I make changes to the hosts.allow and hosts.deny files, do I have to > rebbot for these changes to take effect or is there a service (such as > INETD) that I need to kill and re-start? Yes, you have to restart or hangup inetd. Like this: prompt # killall -HUP inetd That makes inetd reread its configuration files, including hosts.allow and hosts.deny. One thing you need to watch for, is that not all daemons use inetd. Look in /etc/inetd.conf and you will see what runs what. If you see something like /etc/bin/inetd in.telnetd then you know that telnet is running under inet. The way this works is that when the request comes in for a telnet login, what is started is NOT telnet, but inetd. Inetd then checks its configuration files to see if the connection is allowed for that port (hosts.deny hosts.allow), and if so, then it spawns in.telnetd and hands things over to it. Another gotcha is "in.telnetd". This is probably a link or a startup file for the telnet program. In some cases, due to modifications to the Linux system, the link is dead and some other program actually listens on the port and responds and inetd is ignored. It is best to check and double check these things. Here on my servers I use qmail and ncftpd, neither of which runs under inetd although the ports are listed there as well (commented out in my case). Play with things and verify them. What works well to do this is to get a friend to give you a telnet account somewhere and you can probe, poke and telnet into YOUR computer from HIS. -- Ramon Gandia ---Sysadmin --- http://www.nook.net 285 West 1st Avenue ISP for Western Alaska P.O.

[expert] 2.3 version kernel & netfilter
Hello List, I have been attempting to get a firewall setup using hackkernel-2.3.41-1mdk and have not been able to figure out netfilter to setup my firewalling. Has anyone setup firewalling with this kernel version ? I have read what documentation I can find on netfilter and supposedly there is some sort of backward compatability with ipchains, I would appreciate any direction or advise that anyone could offer. I currently am running a ampernet/internet gateway system an have a V90 56K ppp connection to my ISP I then use ipip encapsulation to forward ax25 (Amateur Radio) packets through tunl0 device and onto another Amateur Radio Gateway. I would much prefer to use ax25utils and the linux kernel to do this rathere than my current configuration which utilizes a NOS package to allow RF Port traffic from 3 serial ports to be routed via a pseudo slip port, sl0, to my Linux box and then to the internet. This is very confusing to explain. I found a script to convert ipfwadm2ipchains when I went to the 2.2 series kernel and was hoping for something similar to go from ipchains to netfilter. Once again all help.direction would be very much appreciated. Thank you, Dave -- David M. Kufta http://www.slip.n3meq.ampr.org [EMAIL PROTECTED]

In your /etc/hosts (??) file or /etc/hosts.allow do you have the name AND IP address of all other local machines that you want to telnet from included? This is somewhat of a FAQ, I think.

Re: [expert] cdrecord problem with Mdk 7.0
Alex, You sound knowledgeable about CD burning...maybe you could lend some advice. I recently got a CD-RW drive, but I haven't yet burned a CD in Linux. Does the command "mkisofs -J -r | cdrecord -v fs=8m ..." make an ISO filesystem on the CD-R and then burn the contents of onto the newly formatted CD? What is the best way to make an "exact" copy of a CD in Linux (including the CD boot sector, etc.)? I only have one CD drive (my CD-RW drive), and I'm trying to avoid the graphical frontends for now.

[expert] SSL
I am trying to add SSL to my copy of Apache. I downloaded modssl and all the requirements noted in the docs. I have followed the DOCS to a 'T' and I have compile errors. Naturally it is not a path problem. I am using the latest versions of everything during this install. Can someone possibly help me out by pointing me in the right direction to where I can find better docs or something so I can get this installed? Does anyone know of a simple install method or something? Some help would be greatly appreciated. I started out with RedHat 6.0 release and updated the Kernel and associated files. All that took ok. Unfortunately, RedHat 6.0 does not come with an option to install SSL in the packages list. If it did, I would not be having these problems. Thanks in advance. Mike Kirkpatrick
[expert] Problems with telnet
This is my third install with Mandrake 6.1 (helios). In each install I have noticed problems telneting into the box from an Ethernet connection. Everything Ethernet seems fine (other connections work great). My telnet clients (teraterm and Windows telnet) hang for up to a minute. If I send multiple carriage returns during the hang the Linux box will eventually prompt for a login (after discarding the multiple incorrect login attempts from the carriage returns). If I don't send carriage returns the client will timeout and close. If I use the default Linux telnet client of the troublesome machine and telnet to the ip address of the box I have no problem. A LAN analyzer shows the acks and connection as being inplace immediately. The carriage returns are sent to the proper address and agreed upon port number. The Linux box offers no response to the carriage returns. During install I included something called a "telnet server". I assumed it was needed to allow telnet connects. I also have apache, sendmail, ftp and samba installed. I have no Xwindows support installed (other than a few pieces that helios included anyways). I was asked if I wanted to use shadow passwords and I said yes. Once I get a login prompt everything is fine and speedy. I am lost at this point, but am suspicious of shadow passwords and security possibly hanging the session. Any ideas?

Re: [expert] cdrecord woes (and something to try w/r/t blanking)
I've got a refurbished Yamaha CDRW 4x4x16 at home that makes beautiful CDs most of the time. 'Course I don't use MKISOFS, as what I'm burning is already in an ISO format (so far.) I've made numerous CDs of three different distributions of Linux, and with 4 exceptions all have verified OK on my system. One exception was due to my error in setting up the options in XCDRoast, and the rest appear to be media errors as best I can tell. I'm using Mandrake 6.0 with an Advansys Ultra SCSI (PCI) controller. Are you folks that are having problems using ATAPI CDR/RW drives?

[expert] cdrecord problem with Mdk 7.0
I upgraded from Mdk 6.1 to 7.0 this weekend, and ran into a rather odd problem with cdrecord. I have a script that burns data CDs by piping stdout of mkisofs straight into cdrecord, like mkisofs -J -r | cdrecord -v fs=8m ... However, with the Mdk7 rpm for cdrecord, this produces a corrupt CD! It works fine if you create an image explicitly, but using a pipe like this results in binary corruption of the individual files. The file/dir structure looks OK though. I uninstalled the Mdk7 rpm and installed the latest cdrecord tarball (cdrecord-1.8.1a01.tar.gz), and now things work fine again. Has anybody else seen this? -- Alex

Sorry, folks, that I bothered you with a prob which is none. After sending the previous mail I dozed off and dreamed. Suddenly a giant Tux stood in front of me and screamed "RTFM!". I awoke trembling in shock and terror. First I changed my underwear and then I read the FM of mkisofs. I discovered the options -C and -M and now I live happily ever after. wobo -- GPG-Fingerprint: FE5A 0891 7027 8D1B 4E3F 73C1 AD9B D732 A698 82EE For Public Key mailto [EMAIL PROTECTED] with Subject: GPG-Request --- ISDN4LINUX-FAQ -- Deutsch: http://www.wolf-b.de/i4l/i4lfaq-de.html
[expert] Kppp Script Times Out on Athlon/MDK 7.0 System
Getting odd behavior with Kppp on new homebuilt Athlon 650MHz/MicroStar K7 Pro mobo system under MDK 7.0 that was not an issue on my other Celeron 466/Abit BM6 box. When setting up Kppp as usual, and attempting first connection (this is after properly configuring the USR 28.8 ISA PnP modem with 'setserial', isapnptools, etc.), the modem initializes OK, then Kppp begins dialing, then immediately locks with the error message: "Script timed out.". Any subsequent attempt to dial into ISP with Kppp results in Kppp getting caught in a vicious circle of "modem initializing, dialing, 'script timed out', then going through the same sequence until stopping it with 'cancel'. All 'timeout' settings are same as with my other boxen, even increased all of them with same result. What script is timing out here, and is this an issue with Athlon boxes only? Able to make connection with minicom or Kwvdial with no problem, so I suspect it's a Kppp issue. Any help is appreciated. Tom [EMAIL PROTECTED]
