You have *not* posted any error message (if any).

Have you tried to boot it with the latest version of Fedora/Ubuntu
LiveCD?  If so what are the symptoms?

I would suggest that inquire from vendor if replacement motherboard is
100% one-to-one at chip level with the fried motherboard.

If the above is not the case then your installed Debian is not booting
because most likely the initrd image does not have the proper drivers
installed for the new motherboard installed by your vendor.

OR your GRUB  and /etc/fstab has stuff like  UUID="blahblah"  Before
spinning your wheels I would suggest that you boot the system with a
systemrescuecd and change the UUID lines to appropriate /dev/sd[A][B]
device mappings and ensure /boot/grub/device.map is consistent with
/dev/sd[A][B] mappings.

If the above does not solve your problem then - you can try the
following steps to make yourself an initrd file compatible to your
"new" motherboard  (hope you have access to a spare disk - even a 20GB
should be OK)

1. Use spare disk as primary aka /dev/sda to install a minimal Debian
of the version you have on the "production" system.  Backup important
PG and MySQL dirs to another disk and make production disk as /dev/sdb
(eg.)
2. Copy the initrd image to your "production" disk /dev/sdb in this example.
3. Make production disk primary
4. Boot the system and hopefully it should solve your dilemma without
having to do a full re-install of Debian and copying your PG and MySQL
data

I would  suggest that you make a  backup of your data to a safe
location before embarking on any "surgery" activity.

-- Arun Khan
PS If all of the above fails -  your last resort  would be a fresh
install, config, and copy of files as others have suggested.

Solaris has DTrace which allows you to instrument/trace all kinds of
applications in great depth -- C, Python, Perl, PHP, Ruby, Java, etc.
DTrace is also available on some BSD systems.

I've found DTrace exceptionally useful in performance tuning.

The Linux equivalents -- SystemTap and LTTng -- lack some
advanced features of DTrace, but are rapidly catching up.

[Ilugc] SMTP relay TCP proxy

2010-08-04 Thread Girish Venkatachalam
Dear all,

I ended up needing to do a TCP proxy for my product SpamCheetah.

Some of my troubles are chronicled here.

http://aplawrence.com/Girish/socat.html

I ended up writing the whole thing in the great C programming language
and got rid of socat completely.

It is horrors to me to start 4 separate processes for virus scanning.

Anyway please look at the code here:

ftp://64.85.171.142/upload/smtprelay.c.html

It is running live on a very busy mail server site in Chennai.

So I hope it is of production quality.

pg_dump will help you recover postgres DB.

Moreover you can do a dump/restore with SystemliveCD with Debian.

That works very well. I shall write an article with that soon.

[Ilugc] [Trick] Catch Invisible Friends On GTalk The Python Way

2010-08-04 Thread Tha.Suresh
Ever wanted to know that someone is really offline or has just gone
invisible in GTalk? Here is a small trick. The bellow peace of python
code get the list of invisible users from your GTalk buddy list. It
uses XMPP module for python. You can install this module in
Ubuntu/Debian via apt. It also requires python dns module.

sudo aptitude install python-xmpp python-dnspython

Now here is our script. Open your favorite text editor and save the
code as ‘gchat.py’. Dont forget to fill your gtalk username and
password in the script.

#gtalk.py

import xmpp

# Google Talk constants
FROM_GMAIL_ID = "usern...@gmail.com"
GMAIL_PASS = "secret passwd"
GTALK_SERVER = "gmail.com"

jid=xmpp.protocol.JID(FROM_GMAIL_ID)
C=xmpp.Client(jid.getDomain(),debug=[])

if not C.connect((GTALK_SERVER,5222)):
raise IOError('Can not connect to server.')
if not C.auth(jid.getNode(),GMAIL_PASS):
raise IOError('Can not auth with server.')

C.sendInitPresence(requestRoster=1)

def myPresenceHandler(con, event):
   if event.getType() == 'unavailable':
 print event.getFrom().getStripped()

C.RegisterHandler('presence', myPresenceHandler)
while C.Process(1):
  pass


$ python gchat.py
So , Next time do not let anyone fool you , rather catch him Invisibly.   ;-)

2. You installed postgresql and mysql from source or from Debian binary?

If you can installed Debian 5.0 in another disc, install your pg
version, mount the partitions from earlier disc, copy the data
directory (for postgresql) to the new installation and get your data
back

1. Why installed Debian 5.0 is not booting? What is the error message?

[Ilugc] Urgent help needed regarding Debian 5.0 release 0 server

2010-08-04 Thread Zico
Hi, One of my server crashed last night! It was a hardware crash,
motherboard burned! Today, my IBM local vendor changed the motherboard and
now, my Debian 5.0 release 0 is not booting! Here, the point is, I had
postgresql and mysql database there and those had lot of data. Now, I really
need to get back those data and I do not want to change my any configuration
of that server. Say, I had postgresql 8.3 installed, I need exactly
postgresql 8.3 now too. Is it possible to bring back that server with it`s
previous data?

I remeber the above lines should be added at the beginning of the
squid configuration file

emacs is the default behavior in bash, ksh, zsh in my experience which
can be overriden by shell's builtin function

bash being the CLI by default, simply put the above in your .bashrc.

In csh, again the default is emacs.  For vi use "bindkey -v" for vi
editing behavior.

You cn do most of the command line editing via readline.

set -o emacs or set -o vim

and most of the vim and emacs command line editing will work on the shell.
