Re: [expert] To awk users
Hi List, I'm a newbie about awk. I'm trying to print only chosen column. I have a file with different number fields (NF), but the first 5 are equal, so I want to delete them. I'm looking for something which allow me to print the interval fields $6 to $NF, included, where $NF is different for each line. My biggest $NF is 23 and the smallest is 6. All allternatives that I tryed (following gawk-doc) gave blank spaces before or after each line. Many thanks in advance. -- --- Alan Wilter S. da Silva --- Laboratório de Física Biológica Instituto de Biofísica Carlos Chagas Filho Universidade do Brasil/UFRJ Rio de Janeiro, Brasil Try this is csh, cat filename | cut -d' ' -f 6- if it is space delimitied. Redirect as needed. HTH Dave - This message was sent via the web interface to Sniff Out's POP3 Email - http://www.sniffout.net/ Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [expert] SCSI Tape Issues
aic7xxx: Adaptec AHA-294X SCSI host adapter at PCI 0/9/0 aic7xxx: I/O ports already in use, ignoring. st: bufsize 32768, wrt 30720, max buffers 5, s/g segs 16. Detected scsi tape st0 at scsi0, channel 0, id 6, lun 0 Unable to get major 9 for SCSI tapes A long shot, try removing the module aic7xxx and inserting the module aic7xxx_old, I found that the newer module would work properly with this module. I had tape and scanner attached via the adaptec card. The old module solved all my 'weird' symptoms. You can do the module bit as root using 'insmod' etc... before making the change permanent. HTH.

Re: [expert] Bookmarks in Mozilla
Everytime I try to add or edit bookmarks in Mozilla it locks up on me and I have to use the kill command to get out of it. I have been trying to do this in the last three versions (I downloaded the latest off Cooker this morning) and it locks up every time. Does anyone have a solution to this problem? -- Kenneth Archer + San Antonio, Texas [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ #24980801 Powered by Linux ++ Mailed by Kmail I am using the Mozilla version direct from the Mozilla site, downloaded this week. The function you mention works OK for me. Put tracing on when you start Mozilla and check out what it was trying to do when it crashed. It may a file is missing, incorect path or something similar. Hope this helps. Dave - This message was sent via the web interface to Sniff Out's POP3 Email - http://www.sniffout.net/ Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [expert] Webmin
Good point!!! Thanks. dgssoftware and currently all ports except ssh, are bolted down. How safe would it dgssoftware be for me to allow the port 1 for webmin. Is this good or is there dgssoftware some real threats associated with this. Webmin is already installed The MOST secure way : make a ssh tunel to webmin. To webmin it will look like you are coming from 127.0.0.1 so you can block acces to port 1 to the outside world and you can set access in webmin only to 127.0.0.1. So the only way someone can acces webmin is to have a ssh account. If someone has ssh account he doesn't need webmin ;))) - This message was sent via the web interface to Sniff Out's POP3 Email - http://www.sniffout.net/ Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[expert] Webmin
Hi All, How secure is webmin, I know that is uses a https server, but I need to administer a machine remotely. The MDK 8 box has bastille loaded and currently all ports except ssh, are bolted down. How safe would it be for me to allow the port 1 for webmin. Is this good or is there some real threats associated with this. Webmin is already installed and is used accross the SOHO network...it's just an issue of opening the WEB side access.

RE: [expert] Webmin
Are the password still 8 character significant for the crypt() function, or has Linux changed this? Thanks for your response. Dave When webmin is running, it is bound to port 1 since webmin uses its own 128bit certificate for encryption, its very safe, no passwords get passed in clear txt and its rather difficult to run a brute force password script on a web based admin program. if your passwords are up to the task, you will be fine.. (all my passwords are at least 11 characters long and contains small chars, CAPS chars, numbers4321 and symboles!@@#@!! Since I started using no non non encrypted services, started using long passwords for stuff.. (in fact, usernames that need to be there and have a log in, but don't log in as a person (ie having to type in a password), have passwords up to 50 characters long, I type them in a txt editor, usually they are complete giberish and cut and paste them into the passwd screen) I have never been compromised. so Webmin will fine if used hand in hand with a decent password policy.. rgds Frank -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 19 November 2001 5:08 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [expert] Webmin Hi All, How secure is webmin, I know that is uses a https server, but I need to administer a machine remotely.

RE: [expert] Webmin
Thanks again, i'll have to dig out the iptables howto to make sure that I don't open anything other than port 1, btw, is webmin tcp or udp? brain ache...monday morning actually, I think they are still 8 chars, but I make long ones anyway,, also, most people don't add gibberish till the end of the password, which sort of ruins the purpose, I use gibberish all the way though.. you can download a password cracker and test your passwords if you are unsure of their security.. rgds Frank -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, 19 November 2001 5:40 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [expert] Webmin Are the password still 8 character significant for the crypt() function, or has Linux changed this?
