Watch the below videos. It will give you good starting point for Puppet and
why Puppet adds value to your profile.

​What are the rules?

There aren't any, with the exception that you really should be doing your
own work. This challenge is for you, not anyone else, so don't ask about
how to solve them on mailing lists or IRC. Posting answers to the questions
online is also frowned apon, as it really doesn't help anyone out.

Hi,

Please do not top post. Take some time to learn Mailing List Guidelines at
http://ilugc.in/mailinglist-guidelines/

I don't have reproducible steps for Ubuntu. Go through the below links. If
you understand how to set password then you can reverse the process to
reset it.

Try with CmosPwd (http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/CmosPwd) can be used to

In Bitcode Technologies Android App Dev training is Hands-on, trainers are

Hi Ravi Chandran,

In addition to the above one line.
Please be aware that
 
locate does not search the files on disk rather it searches for file paths
in a database. The locate database file is located at
"/var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db". Hence, in order to get the latest and
reliable results from "locate" command the database on which it works
should be updated at regular intervals using another utility known as
"updatedb".

If you want to run a cron job to kill :

Here is the shell script:

$ cat kill_process1.sh

#!/usr/bin/env sh

process_name="Herrie"

I think it must be either key or permission issue.

1). You have to create the key pair in your local machine and save this
key-pair  “git” (here git is private and public key file name) by using:

I already have user "mohan" in my local machine (for you your local user
account is "gitoliteadmin").

$pwd
/home/mohan

$ cd ~/.ssh

$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -f git

I can see that the 2 keys have been created.

$ ls -l ~/.ssh/git*
-rw---  1 mohan  mohan  1679 23 Jul 19:58 /home/mohan/.ssh/git
-rw-r--r--  1 mohan  mohan   396 23 Jul 19:58 /home/mohan/.ssh/git.pub

“git” is the private key and “git.pub” is the public key.

Upload the public key to the root user’s account on the remote machine.

$ cd .ssh

$ pwd
/home/mohan/.ssh

$ ls -l git*
-rw---  1 mohan  mohan  1679 23 Jul 19:58 /home/mohan/.ssh/git
-rw-r--r--  1 mohan  mohan   396 23 Jul 19:58 /home/mohan/.ssh/git.pub

$ scp ~/.ssh/git.pub r...@xx.xxx.xxx.xx:
r...@xx.xxx.xxx.xx's password:
git.pub

2). Now login to the root users account on the remote machine

$ ssh r...@xx.xxx.xxx.xx

I have already created a user account "git".

# cd /home/git/

# pwd
/home/git

# cp /root/git.pub  ./

# ls -l git.pub
-rw-r--r-- 1 git git 398 Nov 29  2011 git.pub

Please verify your steps.

And also you can change "gitoliteadmin.pub" file name into "gitolite.pub"
in your remote server because your remote machine user account is
gitolite(It may be issue but I am not sure).

While posting bug in mailing list please try to give more information to

I have compiled dhvani in my Ubuntu to help your previous configuration
issue. I just tried some thing like  :

$ dhvani -t "നമസ്കാരം"
Segmentation fault

I am not sure why it is reporting the run time error: Segmentation fault. I
used strace and gdb to trace the issue.

I took strace :

$strace dhvani -t "നമസ്കാരം"

open(NULL, O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_APPEND, 0666) = -1 EFAULT *(Bad address)*
fstat64(8, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0664, st_size=35818, ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) =
0xb27d4000
read(8,
"\21\0\31\0Q\0h\0{\0f\0Q\0T\0;\0i\0\265\0\276\0\276\0\237\0|\0z\0"...,

brk(0x9156000)  = 0x9156000
---* SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++*
Segmentation fault

Then I used gdb to see what is the problem :


$ gdb dhvani

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0xb7e7a3e5 in fwrite () from /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6


See the above output. It through  the SIGSEGV signal from the operating
system. This means that I am trying to access an invalid memory address.
Let's take a backtrace:

(gdb) backtrace
*#0  0xb7e7a3e5 in fwrite () from /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libc.so.6*

#6  0x08048c6e in main (argc=4, argv=0xb334) at dhvani.c:198

The above output says fwrite() call in glibc reports Segmentation fault.
so I want to switch to stack frame 1 and see where the program crashed:

(gdb) frame 1
#1  0xb7fb34a3 in process_pitch_tempo (options=0x804c3f8,
inputfile_name=0x8071da8 "/tmp/dhvani-st7188", output_filename=0x0)
at soundtouch_utils.c:136
136fwrite(buffer, sizeof(short), read_count, out);


the program crashed inside the call to fwrite() and also note the address
of output_filename : it is output_filename=0x0  , output_filename pointing
invalid address.

(gdb) print out
$1 = (FILE *) 0x0

the value of out is 0x0, which is the NULL pointer. This is not what we
want - out should be stdout/output file. It indicates that I have to pass
proper output file to store output.

then I tried with output file name :

$ dhvani -t "നമസ്കാരം"  -o first.wav

Now it works for me.

Your problem may be something else. But this the way to get idea of why it
is giving Segmentation fault.

Hi Srini,

I assume you have installed libsoundtouch-dev, libsoundtouch0 library.

Try the above suggested by Mohan R. If you have still problem. Try this in
your top source directory :

$ make distclean
$ aclocal
$ libtoolize
$ autoconf
$ automake -a
$./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install

Sometimes you don't need to run libtoolize manually. automake -a will run
it for you.

I am not PHP guy to help you. Not sure this what you want.   I am just
sharing what I seen from my friend portal. He is using wkhtmltopdf via PHP
bindings in reporting portal  to prepare pdf reports from html:

If you want to use specifically php, You may look wkhtmltopdf

wkhtmltopdf : http://code.google.com/p/wkhtmltopdf/
PHP bindings : https://github.com/mreiferson/php-wkhtmltox

There is also some pure php modules available to convert html to pdf.

Hi Shrini ,

If you have number of idle machine, you may use Apache Hadoop:
http://hadoop.apache.org/.  The beauty is,  it is open source and  runs on
commodity hardware.

HDFS + MapReduce is a very effective solution for large file (e.g Log
processing, Web index building, Distributed Grep, Inverted Index,
Distributed Sort ...).

HDFS - distributes data.
MapReduce - distributes application.

Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) is designed to handle large files
(multi-GB) with sequential read/write operation. Each file is automatically
broken into chunks, and stored across multiple data nodes as local OS
files.

MapReduce - MapReduce is a programming model for efficient distributed
computing. MapReduce provides API to write application.  Application written
in this style are automatically parallelized and executed on a large cluster
of commodity machines. The run-time system takes care of the details of
partitioning the input data, scheduling the program's execution across a set
of machines, handling machine failures, and managing the required
inter-machine communication. This allows programmers without any experience
with parallel and distributed systems to easily utilize the resources of a
large distributed system.

>  Hi Rajkumar,
It is very hard to answer your question. I will try to give overview of all
about NoSQL.

MySQL is a relational database management system, written to run on single
machine and it provides ACID property (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation and
Durability), whereas NoSQL (Stands for Not Only SQL) is an emerging
distributed and scalible non-relational data storage mechanism for storing
large scale of data.
NoSQL is not alternative to mysql database. *NoSQL is about choice*. You
have to evaluate which NoSQL database most suited for your problem. It is
very hard to tell which NoSQL database to solve your problem.

LIST OF NOSQL DATABASES: http://nosql-database.org/

If you see the above page there is lot of NoSQL databases are there.
Choosing among the one for your problem is little bit hard at begining, it
dependends on business you are running. Last month I gave a presentation
about "EVALUATING NOSQL DATABASES" for our engineers. I would like to share
some of the thing to you:

There are two things you have to consider at evaluating NoSQL databases for
your problem.
I). The Data Model.
II). The CAP Theorem.

I). The Data Model :
NOSQL databases can be categorized according to their "Data Model"(is all
about the system internally stores the data) into the following four
categories:

   1. Key-Value-stores
   2. BigTable-implementations
   3. Document-stores
   4. Graph Databases

Example :
1). Key-Value
- Voldemort
- Dynomite

2). Column-Oriented
Hadoop HBase
Cassandra
Hypertable

3). Document-Oriented
CouchDB
MongoDB

You have to find out which data model is sutable for your bussiness data(eg.
last month sorceforge.net started to using MongoDB it comes under the
document-stores data model categorie:
http://www.infoq.com/presentations/MongoDB-at-SourceForge).

II). The CAP Theorem :

Eric Brewer is an expert in distributed system and professor at UC Berkeley
formulated a theorem called CAP theorem. CAP stands for Consistency,
Availability, and Partition tolerance. These are three properties that are
commonly desired in a distributed system. The theorem simply states that any
shared-data system can only achieve two of these three.

So the CAP theorem allows the designer of distributed system can only pick
two of the those three properties.

At the time of evaluating NoSQL for your bussiness, you have to make sure
which of three property are important for your business model.

1). Consistent, Available (CA) Systems have trouble with partitions:
Example:
- Traditional RDBMSs like Postgres, MySQL, etc (relational)
- This system sacrifice Partition-Tolerant

2). Consistent, Partition-Tolerant (CP) Systems have trouble with
availability while keeping data consistent across partitioned nodes.
Example:
- Hypertable, HBase
- This system sacrifice Available
3).  Available, Partition-Tolerant (AP) Systems:
Example :
- Cassandra, CouchDB

You can find the Mathematical proof of CAP theorem and explanation here:
http://nosqlsummer.org/paper/cap-theorem
http://www.julianbrowne.com/article/viewer/brewers-cap-theorem

The CONCLUSION is :
Last 30 to 40 years,  we have only one option traditional
RDBMSs(SQL,Postgres, MySQL...) for all of our problem. Now the trend has
been changing(The era of using RDBMSes for *all problems* is over), *instead
we should use the database most suited for the problem at hand*. NoSQL is
about choice. We could even use multiple databases in conjunction, and let
each database handle the things it do best.

I think there is a stall in SFD-2010 about NoSQL. I request you come there
you may get more clear ideas about NoSQL.

I hope it will help you and others also.

Dear Kenneth,

As part of my research work, I doing advanced Statistical Modeling using R.
I did this modeling with the help of IIM - Ahmedabad MBA student and Loyola
Institute of Business Administration(LIBA) - Chennai faculty.

I would like to recommend you GNU R for statistical computing, conducting
statistical analyses and graphics.

R is available as Free Software under the terms of the Free Software
Foundation’s GNU General Public License in source code form. R is powerful
and highly developed (and very similar in syntax to S-Plus). The originators
of R are R.Gentleman and R.Ihaca from New Zealand, and the R home page is at
: http://www.r-project.org/

R is now the most widely used statistical package/language in university
statistics departments and many research organizations. Its great advantages
are that for many years, it has been the leading statistical
package/language and that it can be freely downloaded from the R website.

Here is a collection of document link about R :

+1.

It should start something like this :

1) . Writing, Compiling and Executing C programs using GNU compiler.

2) . Writing, Compiling and Executing C++ programs using GNU compiler.

3).  Compiling multiple C/C++ source files using GNU compiler.

4).  Compiling multiple C/C++ source Using Makefiles.

without understanding the above stuff student never understand what is going
on when they compile the package from source OR kernel from source as per
syllabus .  It will give great confidence and first impression/passion among
the student. compiling the kernel without having those stuff may create
negative impression among student.

Hi ,

make is the standard against which all other build systems are currently
compared. Make is at its core a dependency checker that can execute shell
commands based on one file being older than another. Implementations of Make
exist on almost every software platform, although by far the most widespread
would be GNU Make. make is almost dead(virtually nobody is using today the
original BSD Unix Make).

Most Make implementations include a set of 'default make rules' which allow
very simple building of C, C++  projects. Additionally make rules can be
specified for other languages, but these tend to need to be customized from
platform to platform.

Make doesn't include dependency checking by default, although there are make
rules that can do this for you fairly easily in the case of GNU Make.

GNU Make's support for shell scripts under GNU/Linux means that GNU
Makefiles can be very powerful, but use of advanced GNU Make features will
usually render your makefile incompatible with other Make implementations.

see the article what-is-wrong-with-make? :
http://freshmeat.net/articles/what-is-wrong-with-make

Make implementations are poor and dirty by today's standards . That is why
we have few more modern alternatives GNU Autotools,CMake,SCons :

GNU Autotools
GNU Autotools extends GNU Make with a larger library of default build rules,
plus extensive dependency checking capability. It knows how to compile
software (executables, shared libraries, plus documentation, etc) for a
large number of targets, which is something that rapidly becomes tedious
when using plain Makefiles. GNU Autotools is the defacto standard build
system for large linux programs.

CMake
CMake is a principal competitor to both GNU Autotools and SCons. It is a
build system generator, i.e. after running CMake, the user has a native
Visual Studio file at his disposal, or a native Makefile, or nmake file, or
whatever their preference is. Off-the-shelf build capabilties are
comprehensive and proven for large scale software development. The
implementation architecture is far more unified than GNU Autotools and it
runs much faster. CMake has its own scripting language that runs on all
platforms that CMake targets. It is Yet Another Scripting Language, which
puts some people off, but it has the advantage of not introducing any
additional language dependencies to a project.

Hi Girish,

If you are new to Linux Device Driver Development, one thing you need to
keep your mind is  speed reading will not help here (I mean one day or one
week). It is a learning process. Ok

The below information may be useful  for you :

Greg-Kroah Hartmann (one of -stable kernel maintainer) has just released a
"Linux Device Driver Kit" which was made based on the latest kernel
available up to now (2.6.16.18). It is a cd image that contains everything
that a Linux device driver author would need in order to create Linux
drivers, including a full copy of the O'Reilly book, "Linux Device Drivers,
third edition" and pre-built copies of all of the in-kernel docbook
documentation for easy browsing. It even has a copy of the Linux source code
that you can directly build external kernel modules against.

For more info about Linux Device Driver Kit :
http://www.kroah.com/log/linux/ddk.html

How to use Linux Device Driver Kit?

Step 1: Download ddk from the below link

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/ddk/

I am using like this :
$ mkdir ddk

$ cd ddk

$ wget
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/gregkh/ddk/ddk-2.6.16.18.iso.bz2

Step 2 : Decompress the file using bunzip2

$ bunzip2  ddk-2.6.16.18.iso.bz2

Step 3 : Create a directory to mount the iso and mount the iso

$ mkdir -p /mnt/iso

$ sudo mount -o loop  ddk-2.6.16.18.iso /mnt/iso/

$ cd /mnt/iso/

that's it. Now you have all information that is needed to learn how to
create Linux Device Drivers.

I am also using below reference book :

1). Essential Linux Device Drivers by Sreekrishnan Venkateswaran
Publisher: Prentice Hall

It is very nice and complete Linux device driver book you may try.

I hope it will help you.

At the time of every month ILUGC meeting, We have to decide some new topic
that should create interest among the people (it may be new technology,tool
what ever in FOSS).  Based on the topic we have to call expert people to
give talk. The thing is we have to decide the topic in different
areas(System Administration,Networking,Security,Linux Programming,Embedded
Linux,Scripting Languages etc...).


> 2) One beginner talk.
> 3) One OSS project/product demo

The remaining will be open to all.

6) . We have to send the topic at least one week before. If possible we need
to come up a way to announce the presentation topics and details to
surrounding colleges, university (may be schools) to all departments.
Putting more effort on academic(faculty,student,researcher  etc...) people
will give more result.

7). We need to find out an innovative way that has to force more (those)
people to attend the presentation.

8). We have to create an innovative learning modules for new comers.
Innovative learning modules means it has to teach open source philosophy,
create passion and enthusiasm among the new comers and it should make Linux
as more comfortable platform for them compared to M$dog .  Once we started
creating passion and enthusiasm among new comers they will create some more
enthusiast. This may give some more result for us.

>From my experience I had realised below core issue :

But generally what is happening is most of the activities,talks and
presentation bases on LAMP. Very less people from LAMP back ground  are
using Linux when they goes industry, the rest of the people are choosing
WAMP as platform. Those WAMP people never make any contribute for us or
FOSS. That is why I am saying that we need find out a way to create passion
and enthusiasm among the new  people.

putting more effort on other areas like System
Administration,Networking,Security,Linux Programming,Embedded Linux etc...
will give more power for us.

I don't thing making some kind advertisement on social networking will bring

networking. I seen lot of people ( new generation) they are not interested
to waste their time to follow friends and girl friend on social networking.

If you don't have enough system to evaluate hadoop.  You have two option
still you can practice with Hadoop/MapReduce.

1). Standalone Operation : By default, Hadoop is configured to run in a
non-distributed mode, as a single Java process.

http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/current/quickstart.html

2). OpenSolaris Live Hadoop :

HDFS has a master/slave architecture. An HDFS cluster consists of a single
NameNode, a master server. There are a number of DataNodes, usually one per
node in the cluster.

The MapReduce framework consists of a single master "JobTracker" and one
slave "TaskTracker" per cluster-node.

If you have 5 box(Say box1, box2, box3, box4, box5). what you have to do is,
first install and configure HDFS NameNode(master) in box1 and install and
configure HDFS DataNodes(slave) on all other box(box2,box3,box4,box5).
then install and configure "JobTracker" in box1 and "TaskTracker" on all
other box(box2,box3,box4,box5).

1). box1 act as both NameNode and JobTracker

2). box2,box3,box4,box5 are acts as DataNodes as well as TaskTracker .



Resource :

1). http://developer.yahoo.com/hadoop/tutorial/

2). http://hadoop.apache.org/

The above two link has very good information about Hadoop/MapReduce. Please
take some study about HDFS and MapReduce.

In case of any further technical help, please feel free to replay.

Hi,

I don't know how to explain the below usage in shell script. But I will
explain the usage in C. I have created this very simple  program to show you
the usage of getopt(). Let us assume that the below program is your
application(calculation.c). This program will call the function sum(),
sub(), mul() and divi()  depending upon the option (-S,-s,-m,-d). This is
the one way parsing command line argument within your application. compile
and execute the program. You will feel the usage .

//This very basis example will show you the getopt usage
//calculation.c
#include 
#include 
#include 


int sum(int , int);
int sub(int , int);
int mul(int , int);
int divi(int , int);
void usage();

int main(int argc , char *argv[])
{
int c;
int input1;
/* process arguments */
while (-1 != (c = getopt(argc, argv,"S:" "s:" "m:" "d:" "h")))
{
switch (c)
{
case 'S':
input1=atoi(optarg);
printf("Sum : %d\n",sum(input1,2));
break;
case 's':
input1=atoi(optarg);
printf("Sub : %d\n",sub(input1,2));
break;
case 'm':
input1=atoi(optarg);
printf("Mul : %d\n",mul(input1,2));
break;
case 'd':
input1=atoi(optarg);
printf("Div : %d\n",divi(input1,2));
break;
case 'h':
printf("usage goes here\n");
usage();
break;
default:
exit(0);
}
}
return 0;
}
//addition
int sum(int x , int y)
{
return (x+y);

}
//subtraction
int sub(int x, int y)
{
return (x-y);
}
//Multiplication
int mul(int x, int y)
{
return (x*y);
}

//devision
int divi(int x, int y)
{
return (x/y);
}

void usage()
{
printf("./caculation -S \twill add: num1+2\n");
printf("./caculation -s \twill sub: num2-2\n");
printf("./caculation -m \twill mul: num3*2\n");
printf("./caculation -d \t will div: num4\2\n");
printf("./caculation -h \twill display this help message\n");
}

Compile :

$ gcc -Wall calculation.c -o claculation

Execute the program with deffent option:

$./claculation -S 10

$./claculation -S 10 -s 20

$./claculation -S 10 -s 20 -m 5

$./claculation -S 10 -s 20 -m 5 -d 30

I hope this may help you.

I have done some work with OpenCV as part of my work . I have released it
Open Source in sourceforge at :http://sourceforge.net/projects/autocrop/ .
But currently I am not working with OpenCV. I am preparing to start my Phd
in CFD simulation, so spending time with other task will be difficult for
me. I have already motivated few student from ILUGC. But still they need
some help from me because of time constrain I am not able to help them. If
you really still need to explore OpenCV, there is no any other resource
person to help you. please feel free to ping me, As a ILUGC member I am very
happy to help you. Again I will spend some time with OpenCV to help you.
