did you try mount?   It should show all mounted devices local and
network.   df will also show all mounted FSs.

I don't see it using both df as well as mount while running as normal user
as well as root.

[Ilugc] [OT] Copyrights in inter stellar space

2012-07-10 Thread Arun Venkataswamy
The Voyager 1 and Voyager 2 space crafts are nearing interstellar space and
can enter the realm between the stars any time now. They are around 15
billion kms from earth now. Both of them carry  a gold LP record
(gramophone record). The record contains sounds from the planet earth.
Sounds of the earth, greetings in a host of languages and popular songs
from around the world. This was added to the payload of the spacecrafts
just in case intelligent life in the universe stumbles upon our space
craft. From these gramophone records they will come to know about
it's origins and get an small piece of the culture of the human race. Carl
Sagan who was instrumental in this effort had to meet quite a few of bosses
of the music industry to get copyright releases signed so that the music
which they `owned` could be put on that greatest adventure mankind has ever
taken up.

On a lighter note, I was reminded about the way in which the book
`hitchhiker's guide to the universe` begins. A guy is protesting
the demolition of his house to make way for a highway to connect two
cities. The same afternoon his house is demolished, Earth gets a notice
that it's inhabitants should move as Earth was going to be demolished to
make way for an inter galactic highway!

Are copyrights valid outside earth? Anybody can enlighten?

Regards,
Arun

half-truths and lack of understanding of the language. The article
author clearly scanned through PHP bashing articles and took material
from them verbatim; mistakes and all.

I'm not going to argue that PHP is a great language, but the article
is a complete disservice to anyone who has bothered to read it. I'm
disappointed, but not surprised, that Jeff Atwood linked to it.

I don't know how reliable the above quoted news URL is, but there are
quite a few facts in the article linked to by Kenneth. As of 5.2, PHP
still has a few annoying behaviour, which would look extremely weird
to someone new to the language. Just that the author has exaggerated
few of the issues.

   I have been using PHP for 6+ years. They have ironed out a
few things now, and things are certainly improving. And to this date,
there are millions of sites that run php. But things have been really
bad in the past. Thanks


PS: IIRC, Kenneth is himself hates php very much. So :)

 I am searching for knowledge base links for how to implement the mail
 server and what are the basic requirements to implement. It would be nice
 if there is a step by step guidelines.


1) Find out MX record and point to your public IP and do port
forwarding in your NAT box
2) Setup domain in /etc/postfix/main.cf
3) Check reverse DNS(PTR record)
4) Install dovecot and check user login using nc (IMAP and POP3)
5) install roundcube for webmail
6) Do relaying controls by allowing mail sending to only your domain
7) Define my_networks parameter to match your local n/w
8) Tweak master.cf for enabling submission port
9) Check the log file /var/log/maillog and see if it says removed ;)
10) Find out whether any firewall is blocking ports, normally ISPs
block outgoing 25


Finally pray to God that all works the way you want since without
God's grace it
 is impossible to get it all right in the first attempt.

It is also God's grace that you don't succeed in first attempt. ;)

Best of luck.

If something does not work, don't bank on God alone, do google, get back to
the list with  the problem,post it to various related forums, seek irc
advice.

actually I do not hate php - I hate java. But I feel that php is an
entry level language (and does a great job in bringing people to open

am continually disappointed to see talented youngsters getting afraid of
