Re: [gentoo-user] Asking dhcp for a static address
A static IP address is something you have to configure on the DHCP server, on the computer it just asks the server "What IP address am I supposed to have?". If you're set up with a static IP, it compares your mac address to a list and gives you the one you've assigned to it. The client side doesn't do anything out of the ordinary. Sergio Polini wrote: I can't understand how to ask dhcp for a static address. I've read /etc/conf.d/net.example, but using config_eth0=( netmask brd ) in /etc/conf.d/net configures my network interface _instead of_ asking dhcp (the files in /var/lib/dhcpc are not updated).

Portage could remove the old package after compilation ebuild package-new.ebuild compile ebuild package-old.ebuild unmerge ebuild package-new.ebuild install This would reduce the chances of something bad happening, but not remove it altogether.

Not in the sort of cases that come up most often, where functionality has
been moved from a package into another. In this case the block is
entirely predictable. If, for example, you are updating xpdf from version
<=X to version >X, it will both require and block poppler. The dev has
already modified the ebuild to handle the new dependency, so he will know
about the block.

Thanks! I've read the manual and then tried different umask options. Umask=222 seems the most reasonable for what I need. I noticed that the different subdirectories and files automatically inherit the allocated NTFS partition access rights. Is this how umask in fstab works (recursively)? On a hypothetical case where you want to give different access rights to all/some subdorectories & files, do you have to set these individually the first time after mounting the partition, use ACL's, or what else?

If you want a static IP you have to change your /etc/conf.d/net file and edit. Then, you could take dhcp out of the run levels since with a static IP you won't need it. Then, if you have a router, change it from providing dhcp to NO. Here's my net file fwiw. Info comment lines stripped. I leave in the old dhcp commands iface_eth0="192.168.2.100 broadcast 192.168.0.255 netmask 255.255.255.0" #iface_eth0="dhcp" #dhcpcd_eth0="-N" # For setting the default gateway # gateway="eth0/192.168.2.1" This last part is important. Your PC has to find the gateway. My router is at the above address. You might also have to add the gateway address to /etc/resolv.conf as the nameserver otherwise you might lose internet and network connections. Be sure to copy the resolv.conf file first to make sure you don't lose other important settings. Good luck. Works fine for me :) -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Now here's the great part. If I remove
/var/cache/edb/remote_metadata.pickle, everything works great. But,
if I try it again the next time, it fails with the above errors. Then
I remove the remote_metadata.pickle again, and it works. Any clues on
this one? It looks like it's having some sort of active FTP problem
perhaps? But why would it work when I remove the pickle, but not
afterwards? This is just very bizarre to me. Does it not use active
FTP the first round or something?
All I've got to say, is that really weird things are happening, LOL.

Good morning ( in brazil ) guys :-) I know that here is not the best place to ask this, but i dont know where to find information about my dout. I have a machine running linux, and i'm authenticating in a windows 2000 domain (Active directory) using samba, winbind and kerberos. What i need to know is if there is a way of making some other machines authenticate in this machine, and this machine will ask the password for the windows 2000 domain (only for some users, and the user need to be in the /etc/passwd). Let me explain: i have a user 'bob' that is not a user in the domain, but it has your username and password on my linux machine, so he can authenticate. I have a user bgola who has the username on the AD and on the linux machine, but the password isnt on the linux machine, only on the AD. He can authenticate too. Resuming: my linux machine will use the username database from its own but the password database from its own AND from the AD. Does anyone know if its possible? I saw something about password server @ the smb.conf but i dont have ideia of how it works. Thanks any awnser and sorry my bad english, i'm trying to learn :-)!

Hi there, I've done some of this recently, and I don't think you need active directory, winbind AND kerberos. My understanding is that all three are separate mechanisms for authenticating *nix users against a Windows domain. Active directory is MS's name for LDAP, so if you use that then your applications would be compiled using the LDAP USE flag & would treat the MS server as an LDAP server. I don't believe its schema's are terribly good for *nix users - I use Winbind, which uses PAM to appear part of the local authentication process and pass these on to the Windows DC. What i need to know is if there is a way of making some other machines authenticate in this machine, and this machine will ask the password for the windows 2000 domain (only for some users, and the user need to be in the /etc/passwd). It would be helpful if you gave an example of which programs / services on which machines (A, B and C??) you need to be able authenticate in this way. Let me explain: i have a user 'bob' that is not a user in the domain, but it has your username and password on my linux machine, so he can authenticate. I have a user bgola who has the username on the AD and on the linux machine, but the password isnt on the linux machine, only on the AD. He can authenticate too. Resuming: my linux machine will use the username database from its own but the password database from its own AND from the AD. I believe that in this situation it would be unusual to give the bgola a username on the Linux machine - he has one on the AD, so if you use Winbind then he doesn't need one on the Linux box. He can have a homedir, since he may need to store files on the Linux box, but that's not the same, I think, as having an account. For instance on my Linux/Winbind machine on an AD: $ getent passwd | grep -e stroller -e ned stroller:x:1000:100::/home/stroller:/bin/bash ned:x:10012:1:Some Geezer:/home/DOMAIN/ned:/bin/false $ grep -e stroller -e ned /etc/passwd stroller:x:1000:100::/home/stroller:/bin/bash $ ls -ld ~stroller ~ned drwxr-xr-x 3 ned domain users 160 Jan 6 06:32 /home/DOMAIN/ned drwxr-xr-x 5 stroller users272 Jan 6 03:58 /home/stroller Both users can authenticate, depending on how the /etc/pam.d/ the_authenticating_service is set up. I use pam_mkhomedir.so to create a home directory for any users authenticating via Winbind, but beware this only works for services which call PAM "session" directives. I used this guide to set it all up: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/ man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/winbind.html#id2621482 Please CC me should you reply to the list with further questions, Stroller. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] gnome file access
Hello, i have created the folder /video with the following rights: drwxrwxrwx 11 vdr video 4096 5. Jan 23:09 video I am member of the video group but not the user vdr. In nautilus i can create subfolders and files, rename, cut, copy and paste them, but i can not delete any files or folders there. Within gnome-terminal using the rm command i have the right to delete files and folders. What is the problem in nautilus? Thanks in advance. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

If it's the ISP issuing a static IP then he won't need to (use the -s flag) to ask for it. They'll issue it to him if he uses a standard DHCP request to ask for just any old IP. DHCP servers can be configured to always issue the same IP to a given MAC address and ADSL ISPs in the UK issue static IPs via DHCP according to PPP authentication info.

I'm afraid I'm not sure how much I can help here - it's not something I'd do because philosophically I disagree with your approach. That's not to say it's not right _for you_ but I wouldn't have a user in two places (on the Linux box & the AD). You even have the possibility with this approach, I think to separate separate users & passwords (for a single auth) between the two boxes. Will VMWare GSX use the ~ for the user on the Linux box or for the user on the AD to store its files? Personally, I'd have the user exist on the domain or possibly on the Linux box, but not on both. Since you say that VMWare GSX Server (which I'm not familiar with) uses PAM it should be possible to get this to authenticate users on either the AD or /etc/passwd OR BOTH. It should be possible to use some other mechanism - possibly group memberships - to restrict VMWare GSX Server log-in rights to or from certain users. Dovecot IMAP, for instance, has a "deny passdb" and also a valid userID range. I would personally consider this kind of approach more elegant.

My question is, is this module a part of RealVNC or some other program? (I tried to locate a description of the use flags for VNC but was unable to.) Thanks in advance for the help. Yes the vnc.so X module is part of the VNC package. AFAIK its purpose is to implement the shared display # 0 functionality, where you can start a VNC session and interact with the system's local ":0" X display. That is, say that you're logged into the target machine itself and have an X session running on it attached to the system's monitor/vid card/KB/mouse. The vnc.so provides the functionality to attach to THAT session. Note that not all VNC packages support this (notably TightVNC doesn't, but RealVNC seems to, although I havn't tried it. There's also 'xf4vnc' and 'x11vnc' which appear to provide the functionality). Perhaps the module is also used in the normal Xvnc session also, but TightVNC doesn't even include the module and it implements Xvnc. Normally, vncserver starts up its own X server (Xvnc) which uses a new X display number which is completely independant of any X server which may be running on the target system. Perhaps this is what you're really looking for ? If so, it's very easy. Just run something like 'vncserver -depth 24 -geometry 1024x768' and you'll be able to attach a VNC viewer to the virtual X display by connecting the viewer to ":1". - Jim -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
[gentoo-user] How do I enlarge graphics with mouse hover?
Since I upgraded my system with KDE 3.5, I have lost this feature and can't seem to find a way to enable it. With prior versions of KDE, when I open folders with graphics, I could see the thumbs of the graphic, but they are quite small. When I would hover the mouse over the grahics for a second a pop-up would display showing a larger image with some file information. Now I can't find a way to bring this back. I have googled this a couple days now and can't find a solution. It may also be a bug. For some reason, I can't set my login manager desktop to any background other than the default installed ones. I even use the "Get New Wallpapers" button, download the background, it shows up in the preview window, logout, and my desktop just shows the background color. Any guess on this would be helpful as well. Thanks, Ken -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Well, it does, by stopping and waiting for you to perform an action and
either restart the stopped process (if the action you took was to
unmerge the blocking package), or to forego the stopped process
entirely, if you choose not to remove the blocked package because you
want to keep it for whatever reason (it could happen).
You're assuming that unmerging the blocking package is *always* the
right solution for everyone at all times (in this case, it's not really
relevant, since motif-config will itself re-install openmotif), but the
point of Gentoo is that you are in control. If I am in control, then I
have to decide what I want done in each particular situation that
occurs, which is exactly what I have to do with the current setup-- very
obviously, since Portage will stop until I make a decision and act on
it. So fine, your new updated Portage informs me there's a block, and
says, "I could do this to solve it, shall I?" I myself am going to say
"no", because I want to know the nature of the block, and how Portage's
proposed action is going to affect the system that I have carefully
customized to my individual needs.
So I'm right in the same position as I was anyway; the emerge is stopped
(because I said, no don't go on with whatever you plan), and I'm off
reading ChangeLogs and the like to see what's going on in the
environment I'm suddenly dealing with. I suppose that it's all very nice
to have some extra dialog as if Portage was communicating with me more
"humanely", but it's just cosmetic, in actual fact.
Of course, that may be because I take time to read some of the
comprehensive documentation that so many have taken the time to write,
so I know what a Blocked Package is, so it doesn't freak me out when I
come across one. So sue me and call me names... oh wait, you had your
rant already. We'll mark that item "Done", then.
Ultimately, I'm sure such an extra dialog would be a nice thing, but I
don't so much see it as something to get all riled up about. Maybe it's
just me.

Re: [gentoo-user] vnc.so
After you get X to start with the vnc module as you have, you just use a vnc viewing program (RealVNC is common). I typically connect to this system from another Windows box on the LAN but I have done Linux to Linux (vncviewer) with a system several states away. There's also a way to set a password but I forget how I did that. I remember setting it as root since the X server starts as root. There a command that comes with the client portion of vnc, I think. Poke around. To others reading this thread, only the newer branch of the vnc project (version 4, I think) has the vnc server module support. Looking at things, I see that version 4 is now marked stable (it wasn't when I installed it on two systems). Just a word of caution, if you connect to your own box you'll probably end up with some wacky stuff when you move your mouse, etc. It took me a while to understand that this is actually the mirror in a mirror issue.

Re: [gentoo-user] vnc.so
I understand how vnc.so works. I was trying to determine where to find documentation for it, so I asked the more general question of which package it came with. After more research (and a response received on this list) I learned it is part of RealVNC. What I was looking to do is provide additional configuration option for X.org but couldn't do this until I knew where to find the docs--now I do. So I just need to play with it to try and improve performance--I've noticed (just recently) that performance over a VPN tunnel is quite slow when compared to a LAN (I know, this is pretty obvious). What's odd, though, is that performance is MUCH worse VNC-ing to my Gentoo server on port :0 then it is on port :1, for example. Puzzling... Anyone have ideas as to how I can improve this aspect of vnc.so? ~ Tom BTW... To enable the VNC password, add the following line to 'Section "Screen" ' of xorg.conf: Option "PasswordFile" "/path/to/.vnc/passwd". Usually, you have to add a "noauth" option in order to disable password authentication--this is the option I chose since one would have to authenticate via XDM and I use xlock/xautolock to secure the logged in session.

I don't think anyone wants to call you names. At least not anyone
sensible. But, I see I struck a nerve on one of my previous posts.
That's good though, as we *all* need to be provoked to think a little.
That way we become *wise* rather than *smart*. And wise is better

Yes, flexibility is GREAT. That's one reason I really like gentoo,
and linux in general. However, I also like simplicity, or should I
say, I like to have the choice. So, one could easily make gentoo have
auto-detect and handle features, while allowing configuration changes
that disable automatic behaviour. You could have individual
enable/disable options for each feature, as well as one global feature
than enables/disables all auto-detect features. Then you could have
include/excludes for each feature so that the global would not
override them.
So, the bottom line is this, one person says that things are difficult
because they need to be, in order to be flexible. But I say that if
things are truly flexible, then it should also be possible to make
them automatic, or simple. That's what I call ULTIMATE flexiblity,
which is what I mentioned in another post that I made. When I
originally started with gentoo linux, I read the part about why gentoo
linux came about. Basically it was all about doing things the way you
want. Well, I like the flexiblity, but I also want the simplicity. :)
Let us have the simplicity of RedHat, and RPMs (waiting for flames),
but with flexibility as well.
I understand that gentoo is a work in progress, and will probably
remain that way forever (I HOPE). So, any ideas should at least be
analyzed, and thought out, and not just discarded.
