exactly!

i have two email servers...
net4india.com and vsnl.com

i tried with evolution and both don't (seemingly) support
IMAP/SSL/APOP/etc... only POP3 on both...

this basically leaves out only the ssh tunneling option.

i have managed a system based in US which is although slow, atleast can
provide a ssh login!
the only problem is that when i do a 

"ssh -L 56110:pop.net4india.com:110 somebody.us.net
-L56025:smtp.net4india.com:25 -C"

a few questions:

1. now this always asks for a password. Cant i make this automatic? i
mean i give a script in /etc/rc.local (with a password) for once when
the system boots, and this connection stays on?

2. is that advisable? because my system stays on for 10-12 hours, does
the ssh connection die out due to no transmission??

Re: [ilugd] Problem opening modem by kppp

2003-08-18 Thread Narsingh Sahu
No LL, You are widely off the mark. I sent the message
from my office Linux box. Incidentally I have got
Knoppix installed onto my harddisk both at home and
office. I came to like Debian after using all sorts of
Distro (RH, Mandrake, SuSE - you name it). And since I
could not lay my hands on a Debian set of CDs, Knoppix
came in handy.

Also I had checked for the running processes. The
problem, as I have mentioned in an earlier post, was
because somehow the permissions for the kppp got
changed.

Absolutely right. But you may be able to get away without CMOS battery
replacement if you are actually able to keep your machine up for days at
a time, as your original post described. In that case, CMOS battery does
not matter... NTP will keep your date steady. And we've found ntpd very
easy to configure... very little config info needed. You just need to
find appropriate NTP servers which work for you, that's all. I guess
junta on this list can help there.

Along the same lines, you are probably using an out-of-date version of
Linux, which is old, hence causing the time to lag. Use a more recent
version of Linux, and time will lag less. This is primarily the reason
why all of us keep updating our Linux distros to keep them recent... no
time lag on clocks!! :)

You can alternately switch to Windows, because Microsoft is very
aggressive about releasing plenty of up-to-date service packs to keep
the time lag minimal.

Since procmail is an MDA (D=delivery), it can only be used if the
message is being delivered, and that too, to a local Unix-style mailbox,
I think. I don't seem to know how to use procmail if I'm delivering mail
to IMAP users (MDA then is a program which is part of Cyrus IMAP). Also,
sometimes I need to filter mails in the _MTA_, specially in multi-site
setups. What do I do in that case?

The term "Real-time OS" has no connection with keeping accurate clock
time in the system clock. The subject of real-time OS is a big one,
therefore it is best that we discuss it in a separate thread if at all.
:) Suffice to say that the real-time behaviour of an OS has no
connection with accurate system clocks.

BTW, an OS as a whole (as in Red Hat or Solaris) is not real-time or
non-real-time. Only the kernel is, really. The rest of the OS, i.e. the
user processes, remain practically the same, except for some apps that
one may write which do user-state things with the help of the real-time
extensions of the kernel. Therefore, the correct term should probably be
"real-time kernel" rather than real-time OS." :)

[ilugd] win linux unix

2003-08-18 Thread LinuxLingam
http://www.internetwk.com/breakingNews/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=13100478

was checking out this webpage for an interesting story on more lethal blaster 
variants expected, when i noticed a strange ad on the right panel. it says:
"unix like reliability. without unix-level budget.
do more.
with  less.

windows server 2003.'

er . . . unix-like is a qualifying statement, does it mean nearly there but 
not quite there?
unix-level budget? i suppose its not free-of-cost as in gnuLinux? har har!

the do more with less is a very close take on an apple slogan of the 
mid-nineties when they strongly pitched mac os 7 or something against win95 
and mac against 486 generally.

interesting ad. oh! and it promises you can 'Try It Free' as well. this is 
where RMS usually steps in and says free as in free cigarettes to children in 
schools, or something to that effect.

but seriously, i wonder how many of you have noted that all the disparate 
operating systems born in the early eighties, are actually de-forking and 
merging back into *nix its as if *nix was, *nix is, and *nix will be.

eternal like the sanskrit of operating sytems.

it is also not necessary for the pc to be 'old' for the CMOS battery to fail. 
other possible reasons;

1) CMOS battery drained if its a recycled/recharged type peddled by some 
shady guy.

2) drained due to a shortage or leakage.

3) if you have those horrendous PCs that never really poweroff, as in HARD 
OFF. they tend to look like they've all shut down, but one press on the 
keyboard and they can powerup again, called a soft on. well, if you have the 
sense of physically pulling out the power cable from the socket so the PC 
won't fry while its offically switched off (happens far more frequently than 
you can imagine) the CMOS battery gets drained more rapidly.

nevertheless, i never expect any CMOS-based timing system to be 'mission 
critical' on the usual i386-type architecture. as ghane rightly points out, 
you need serious hardware for that kind of thing, or an always on, high-speed 
connection on a high-speed machine doing ntp.

also, i have never really quite understood what is it with operating systems, 
for instance, why is QNX a true 'realtime' operating system, while gnu/linux 
isn't? or many of the high-end unix variants on big iron machines?

so your OS needs to be a true realtime OS as well, depending on your 
tolerance threshold of what is realtime enough. for this, try QNX, or the 
truly free TRON operating system.

yes, i think this is a good thing to explore. i have seen several queries and 
issues related to M$ exchange and outloook/ximian floating around. this is 
some sort of a holy grail.

meanwhile, wonder if anyone noted a recent news snippet that M$ was thinking 
of announcing the 'end of the road' for outlook express, or words to that 
effect. i have no idea what they wish to come up with next, but all the more 
reason for us to figure out a solid working alternative. also saw linuxforyou

how to connect your ximian or whatever to m$exchange.

you need to do two things:

2) you need some reference books on hand, for instant solutions.
get hold of peter norton's book, and a series of books targetted towards

well, go to KPPP's indicator lights on your taskbar once you are online, 
click on it, and then click on 'details'

if 'bytes in' shows 64 and continues to stay at it while the 'bytes out' 
seems to grow (or perhaps stay static) it is most probably an ISP related 
problem. just disconnect and retry a few minutes later or often even 
immediately, and it works. i suppose this is how the internet traffic system 
works, in spurts, and we have peculiar latency and other issues here with 
some ISPs. okay i may be totally off the mark, but i know from experience 
that this happens, and the jugaad i am recommending works.

actually, glad you brought that up.
george orwell's vision turns out to be frighteningly true in the digital 
world, with total lack of real privacy, treacherous computing promoted as 
trusted computing, and one Big Brother spelled with a B.

the launch of the macintosh ad showed the hammer thrown at that image. the 
mac promised 1984 won't be like 1984, but the promise is being fulfilled so 
far, not by apple, nor mac, but by gnuLinux.

but hey, did you know george also wrote another book, probably alluding to 
the way the opensource community would work in this future: something about 
some animals being more equal than others . . .  what did he call it, SCO 
Farm or something, i think . . . .

but really? is it possible to distinguish between a bianary file
compiled by a c compiler or another one.

and is the way I proposed a correct way at all?

RE: [ilugd] Re: Office Depot Aids Monopoly{This is not a troll}

2003-08-18 Thread Tarun Upadhyay
I evaluated Ximian about three months back. I downloaded, installed and even
paid them for it.

The software is not free or open source - not even in parts (the license is
here
http://support.ximian.com/cgi-bin/ximian.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_refno
=020318-05)

There are two products: Ximian Connect and Ximian Evolution. Neither of
these replaces MS Exchange.
Evolution replaces Outlook for many functions (does not provide shared
folders). Ximian Connect allows Ximian Evolution to talk to MS Exchange (and
supports shared folders thru exchange). 

AFAIK, Evolution is free but Connect is not. That costs $69 per copy and you
still need a license to Microsoft Exchange CAL (which btw costs $69 more and
has outlook bundled free).

So, Ximian is neither free as in beer nor as in speech. (and it is something
that you buy over and above Outlook not as a substitute to it !!)

Re: [ilugd] NAT & DNS on 7.2 ?

2003-08-18 Thread Lokesh Bhog
Try using similar commands using iptables.


The error message seems to indicate that the settings
in kernel are not done
to support ipchains. Either.
a) Use redhat linux 9.0 or 7.3 or 8.0 with iptables
b) Use iptables instead of ipchains
c) Recompile the kernel and use ipchains.
d) It may be a problem on how you have installed linux
or are giving the
commands therefore, such error messages are appearing.
Please share what
commands you are giving.
e) Use redhat linux 7.1 - I had tested these things on
that version and it
used to work without any problem.

Well! what is the "other" database you want to port to?

If its MS SQL then,

I dont know much about MS SQL but that it accepts SQL friendly
syntax.

So what you can do is... 
take all the data from a mysql database into a flatfile as in "insert" 
queries. using mysqldump. 

and then dump that data into the other database.

hope it helps.

No making new dialup connections will not do. I am

you still have the kppp daemon running as a process. press control+esc to get 
the list of running processes, and kill kppp and other daemons that are busy 
accessing the modem for nothing.

then, start fresh with kppp and you'll be able to log in.

RE: [ilugd] NAT & DNS on 7.2 ?

Hi,

I did the needful but was unable to do so coz of the following error.

When I flush the ipchains its giving an error "ipchains: Incompatible with this Kernel"

And when I make an entry to the existing ipchains it gives "ipchains: Protocol is not 
available"

I am using Red Hat 7.2 (Enigma) 2.4.7-10 #1 Thu Sep6 17:27:27 EDT 2001 i686

How do I resolve the problem? I need to setup the gateway system ASAP as there is no

Subject: Re: [ilugd] NAT & DNS on 7.2 ?

Shailesh,

Try this.

1. Take two ethernet cards (though u can do with one also, but for
security purposes)

2. Put on eth0 your local network - lets say 192.168.1.* lets say -
192.168.1.1 (rest of your windoze cud be on 192.168.1.*)

3. Put on your eth1 for isp. Now if the isp gives permanent ip address,
great, configure your eth1 for the same, if not, configure your eth1 to
pick address dynamically.
route add gw  eth1

   3.a. If your eth1 is dynamic, then you will need to execute a script
that automatically runs the route add command everytime it is brought up



4. to run name server, simply install bind, bindutils, caching-name
server rpms (i would strongly recommend to upgrade to rh 9.0 since the
original 7.2 has security punctured bind).

5. I assume you will need to run proxy
  Install all rpms of squid on the server.For access control use
squidguard.

6.In addition to this, if you would want internal systems to connect
directly to the net, using your linux box as gw.
   6.a - to all machines on your lan make add the gateway as 192.168.1.1
(ip of yr linux box)
   6.b - in all your machines on your lan, make the dns as 192.168.1.1
(ip of yr linux box)
   6.c A simple and correct method would be to run the linux box as dhcp
server (on eth0) and boot all windoze from this - so that the above
config is not required on client side.
  6.d. execute
echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward  (this will allow your
linux box to masq)
  6.e. Now you need to add rules so that your internal users can go
outside ( i am assuming u r going to use ipchains in 7.2)
ipchains -F (flush)
ipchains -X (remove rules)
ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 -d 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0 -j
MASQ  (Allow all source 192.168.1.0 to talk to any outside
0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0)
You can ofcourse add more filters as you go along.

Thats it - you are on.

my ears pricked when i heard 'linuxlingam'  :-)

okay, i agree with spoonman. 
human consciousness always chooses the path of minimum resistance. 
therefore, in the present scenario, using M$ and other propreitory-software 
is the path of minimum resistance. 
the same people resisted using computers about a decade or two ago.
should gnu/linux become the path of minimum resistance, it will be adopted, 
even it may no longer offer any real value or may actually be 
counter-productive.

second, i agree with spoonman that i might have a tough job on my hands to 
make spoonman change from mutt to kmal or whatever. but this is the path of 
maximum resistance. and i am human. :-)

more seriously, advocay of anything is a grand delusion, a huge 
self-importance trip, yeah, you are the morpheus, the neo, humanity  has to 
be saved, and all that crap.

the only person you can 'save' is yourself.
more realistically,

you have to be the change you wish to see in the world.

which is why i used macintoshes with their gui and mice and overall technical 
superiority and paradigm-shifts since 1984,
and which is why i use gnulinux, for the vision and philosophy of mukt and 
muft intellectual 'property' whether in software or other more important 
domains like medicine, knowledge, education, music, and more.

spoonman, continue using mutt. tarun, continue using outlook. 
billgates, dual-boot with gnulinux in your personal desktop.

it does not matter to me.

Yes.  I'm using Squid, DansGuardian and Clamav at a client's to do
automatic virus scanning of Internet content.  DansGuardian can also
filter on other criteria, e.g. undesirable language, etc.

[ilugd] Time Lag in Linux...

2003-08-18 Thread J.Mohamed Zahoor
Hi all,

	I am using RH linux 7.2 (kernel version 2.4.7-10). I am facing a problem
	with time drift w.r.to real time.
	
	Let me explaing this in detail
	--
	
	I set time using "date" command and then "/sbin/clock -w" to set
	the RTC time as system time. I also run "/sbin/clock -s" to sync
	system time with RTC using cron for every 1 hour. 


RTC(cmos) SystemTime(linux)  Real Time(accurate digital watch)
11/08/2003  10:10:10 10:10:10   10:10:10
18/08/2003  10:10:24 10:10:24   10:10:10
After 7 days (system is continuously running), i find the difference
14 seconds over the real time.
	This time lag cannot be accepted in if we have to use real time 
   applications which depends heavily on time.

Can someone tell me why there is a time lag...
If it cannot be compensated... is there a way to synchronize RTC/system time
with real timein Linux...!!!
I shall appreciate any help in this regard...

are yu using squid as a transparent proxy? in any case, i don't think
proxy or ftp traffic will pass thru squid as it is only a http proxy.
what yu can do is, checkout squid's site (www.squid-cache.org) and there
are a few applications which allow scanning of incoming content thru
squid and they also integrate with major antivirus packages.

for email scanning, well yu can setup the linux box as a mail server
handling all your mails and integrate it with an antivirus. so this way
all your incoming and outgoing mails will be scanned.

thus, yu'll need to install separate scanning applications for
http,smtp/pop and ftp (ftp if yu using a ftp proxy), though the
antivirus engine can be the same.

The point is not about the lack of alternatives. Alternatives
exist. there is always more then one way to do it.

The problem lies with people. people do not want to
change. People want to continue doing things just as they have
been doing. a "new" however "better" solution is unacceptable.

if linuxlingam would try making "me" change form mutt to kmail
he has a might tough job on his hands.
