[ilugd] Knoppix Kicks!!!!!
Hi All, I got a Knoppix3.2 CD last saturday. Today I have run my system on Linux(Knoppix) for the whole day without any major hiccups. Wonderful! Here are some things I noted: 1. My sound card was not working with windows98. some driver conflict issue. ran Knoppix and woila! sound card just started emitting some wonderful music. All my colleagues were left stunned! The sound quality was much superior to what I have on windowz. 2. Network configuration and windows network browsing using Lisa were so easy. Neednt mention the autodetection of hard drive was such a pleasure. 3. Only problem is when I tried to make a persistent image of Knoppix on the filesystem that it threw an error. i dont remember the error but was concerning some KDE file which it could not locate in /usr/share/ directory. If someone could help me with this then It would be really easy for me to switch to Linux. Now that I am really tired of all this windowz bamboozle. 4. Another thing is I need a email client which can import all my mails from the Outlook Express 6. Just once again Knoppix kicks and windowz s... Waiting for your replies... Njoi!!

(1 message) -- Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Full-Disclosure] [SECURITY] [DSA-422-1] multiple CVS improvements Date: Tue, 13 Jan 2004 15:16:46 +0100 -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 - Debian Security Advisory DSA-422-1 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.debian.org/security/ Wichert Akkerman January 13, 2004 - Package: cvs Vulnerability : multiple problems Problem type : remote Debian-specific: no CVE Id(s) : CAN-2003-0977 The account management of the CVS pserver (which is used to give remote access to CVS repositories) uses a CVSROOT/passwd file in each repository which contains the accounts and their authentication information as well as the name of the local unix account to use when a pserver account is used. Since CVS performed no checking on what unix account was specified anyone who could modify the CVSROOT/passwd could gain access to all local users on the CVS server, including root. This has been fixed in upstream version 1.11.11 by preventing pserver from running as root. For Debian this problem is solved in version 1.11.1p1debian-9 in two different ways: * pserver is no longer allowed to use root to access repositories * a new /etc/cvs-repouid is introduced which can be used by the system administrator to override the unix account used to access a repository. More information on this change can be found at http://www.wiggy.net/code/cvs-repouid/ Additionaly, CVS pserver had a bug in parsing module requests which could be used to create files and directories outside a repository. This has been fixed upstream in version 1.11.11 and Debian version 1.11.1p1debian-9 . Finally, the umask used for 'cvs init' and 'cvs-makerepos' has been changed to prevent repositories from being created with group write permissions.

Re: [ilugd] How does Microsoft armtwist its own partners?
Microsoft plans to broaden its attack on Linux and related operating systems this week by giving away a set of tools for migrating applications to Windows. The company is expected to release on Thursday a new version of Services for Unix (SFU), a collection of tools that help Windows systems to work with installations based on the Unix operating system and its open-source derivative, Linux. Microsoft previously charged $99 per client or server to use SFU. But the new version, 3.5, will be free for any customer using a current Windows operating system. SFU packages an array of tools designed to accomplish two main tasks: that of allowing Unix and Windows systems to work together by using common file systems, directories and other resources; and that of helping information technology workers to migrate applications from Unix to Windows. regards, Puneet - Original Message - From: Puneet [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: The Linux-Delhi mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, January 13, 2004 12:03 PM Subject: Re: [ilugd] How does Microsoft armtwist its own partners? Microsoft Monday launched a new advertising campaign designed to extend its fact based assault on the Linux operating system. The campaign consists of a two-page advertisement, which was featured in six computer industry trade publications this week, that cites a 2002 IDC study that found that Windows 2000 costs organizations less to operate for a variety of server tasks including networking, security, and file and print serving. Reams have been written about Windows and Linux, the ad reads, Let's skip to the bottom line. On the next page, the advertisement directs readers to a page on Microsoft's Web site which contains a number of case studies and analyst reports that tout the benefits of the Windows operating system. The campaign is expected to run for six months, although Microsoft has not yet decided on an end date, according to a company spokeswoman Though Microsoft declined to say what it was spending on advertising, the simple print advertisement is markedly different from the high budget Linux ads that rival company IBM launched in September of last year, which were created by New York ad agency Ogilvy Mather and featured such celebrities as boxer Muhammad Ali and director Penny Marshall. The difference is telling, said Bruce Perens, a Linux advocate and one of the founders of the Open Source Initiative. IBM's advertisement targets high level executives, while Microsoft appears to be targeting more technical users, Perens said. IBM understands that the people who really need the message are at the top, he said. I think that the IBM ad says, 'Buy Linux and save your company.' The Microsoft ad says, 'Buy Microsoft and save your job.' Microsoft characterized the advertisement's focus on IT professionals as in line with the fact based campaign it has waged against Linux since summer of last year. That's when the company's general manager of platform strategy, Martin Taylor, vowed to reduce the level of emotion in Microsoft's criticism of Linux. There were some emotional statements made before; we're now on a direction to talk about the facts, he said at the time. Monday's advertisement continues in that vein, a Microsoft spokeswoman said. We were looking at targeting the IT pros. IBM's was a broader Linux movement campaign, she said. It's the IT professionals who want the facts. According to Perens, the advertisement simply shows that Microsoft is afraid of Linux, and give the open source operating system more credibility in the enterprise. I think that Microsoft should continue this campaign in other publications, he said.

[ilugd] Request to sign the petition
Hi All,, I know it is offbeat topic ,but i couldn't not stop myself to post it. regards Ritesh Agrawal So unfortunate !! Hi All, I need help- firstly this is not a chain letter, this is a personal request, and won't take even 5 min of your time - im sure all of you have heard of Satyendra Dubey, the IIT Civil Engineer, who went straight from campus to work on the PM's pet Golden Quadrilateral Project, when he could have been one of those who flock to the U.S in droves. Here are some facts: Dubey graduated from IIT Kanpur in 1994 as a civil engineer and started working for the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI). He was posted on to the PM's pet project, the Golden Quadrilateral, for a segment in Bihar. Last year in November, he wrote a letter to the government officials, specifically the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) alleging corruption in the handling of contracts to third-party vendors and mismanagement of funds by contractors. He attached his references in a separate letter, stating clearly that he would like to remain anonymous and feared reprisal from the relevant people. This year on 27th November, he was gunned down in Patna. These words from Sudipto Majumdar, 21, in a letter to the PM in To I say it all - I can feel how Satyendra might have felt in staying back home and deciding to build a new India - right under your guidance and vision Isn't this what you always wanted? Didn't you try convincing IITians over the years to stay back in India and make a difference? When someone tried, where were you? May be busy deciding on poll tickets, may be selling dreams to some villagers, or just may be wiping and hiding the rot that is all around us My friends who emigrated then, with whom I differed in my beliefs, seem to stand corrected in retrospect - they were the real smart ones. I was among the romantic idealists who decided to stay and work in India. But I am lucky to be alive. May be because I didn't stretch my honesty and idealism as far as Satendra did Mr Vajpayee, on behalf of all IITians, I thank you for spending lakhs on every IIT student every year. But please don't sell them dreams that can kill them. If Satendra's killers are not punished, not many IITians would trust the government with their futures. PLS. PLS. take a stand and help his family and friends secure justice- India needs more Satyendra's but courageous ppl shud not have to lose their lives. Help us by signing this petition to the PM, it won't even take a minute. Pls. fwd this mail to as many of your friends as possible. http://www.PetitionOnline.com/sdubey/ Thank You Best Regards ___ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
