The solution given to you is correct. Why the above is happening is that you need to make yourself the owner of you home directory. Do this once in the home directory of the distribution you have made the change and it will work.

BYE
   

neeraj,

you are right! i changed the UID and GID of the LL home directory on the
mounted partition to match those of the LL user on the booted partition
and distro . . . and it worked.
ofcourse, when i then booted into Redhat8's partition, and tried logging
in, the XDM screen was again hurled at me as the UID and GID of the
existing user had been changed by fedora. so this time, i logged in as
root under redhat8, reset the UID and GID, and again managed to log in
successfully as LL.
therefore, what i need to do is simple:
set up a script on fedora that,
*only* when i log in as user LL:
1) on logging-in, sets the UID and GID of the mounted partition to match
those of LL of fedora.
2) on logging-out, resets the UID and GID of the mounted partition to
match those of LL of Redhat8.
so how do i do this? i can write two scripts, but where do i put them?
as the scripts will be run by the action of the user LL logging in, a
command like chown would require a root to do that for the other home
directory, so how do i do this in the script?
do i enter these scripts in rc.local? would want this change to happen
irrespective of whether LL logs into runlevel 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5?
please help

  We can cover more.
 Any ways now when tentative venue is ready, we can
think of theme of the meet. I guess we didn't had a
Debian based meet for time memoriable. So how about
having a Debian meet.
 Topics to be covered can be:-

1) Introduction of debian and its philosophy to
newbies.
2) introduction to debian desktop, and demo of some
apps (here we can include all the demos suggested by
LL in a previous reply)
3) Structure of debian, difference between redhat and
debian configurations.
4) Latest development in the debian world
5) Guide to debian installation.

 i belive this agenda has all the all the masala for a
good meet, as it contains something for everyone from
newbies to techies ( aka geeks).

Speaking of writing CDs under Linux, I installed Xandros 2.0 on my new
machine a couple of days ago, just to see what it was like. I happened
to have an ISO image lying around, and when I right-clicked on it, the
shiny GUI thing offered to write it to disk. Great.

When I mounted the resulting CD, it had one file on it: whatever.iso.
I'm amazed that somebody could get that so, so wrong.

[ilugd] Suggestion for Lify CD

2004-03-30 Thread vivek khurana
HI! Everyone

 LFY's Asst. Editor mayank has given an idea for
having a cd (for LFY) prepared by ilugd. In our
initial discussion we had decided that we can have a
cd containing database(s) + development tools for
linux.

 So i am writing to group members to come up with
suggestion for the content of databse + development
tools cd. I had decided few categories to streamline
the suggestions. the categories are as following

1)IDE
2)Compilers/Interpretors
3)Databases
4)Documentation

 Only usefull and Floss/open source tools and Db can
be recommended i.e projects available under
*PL(GPL/LGPL/MPL/CPL etc) or free BSD can be
suggested. Suggestion for proprietory products will be
redirected to /dev/null 
 
 Please mention the category for each tool.

 LAST DATE FOR POSTING SUGGESTION IS 8th APRIL 2004.
Suggestions received after 8th april 2004, 2400 hrs
wil be sent to /dev/null.

 I don't think there is any log/list, but you can
start maintaing them. Also, we can implement a
priority for topics in such a list with newbies meet
having highest priority.

 One more thing manpreet, please put a newline or tab

[ilugd] Customizations

2004-03-30 Thread Ankur Rohatgi
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
I am always looking for a new way of customizing my setup and in Linux
it is a similar search. I came across 2 great apps and though not
related, i will put them in the same email.
1. Animated Lilo
Yes newer versions of Lilo boot graphical but someone has actually put
cool animations there. After a little tweaking i got it running on
Mandrake, this is real eye candy stuff. I did have to remove the stock
Lilo and move back a version which was even modified a bit. The result
is amazing , you can see the screen i am using and there are more on
that site.
http://www.gamers.org/~quinet/lilo/xray-blue.html

2. Quickswitch
I have been using a laptop as my primary machine for many years now and
one of the main problems i have faced is different configurations based
on where i was and since i also travel a lot that compounded the
problem. I used netswitcher (http://www.netswitcher.com) in windows and
i wonder how can people live without that.
This software quickswitch (http://www.muthanna.com/quickswitch) is
amazing at the job. I can have separate profiles for my office, home and
travel etc. It changes tons of stuff depending on the profile, diff
network settings, Xconfig file, hosts files etc etc. Either it can be
manually executed to change on the fyl or it also works by accepting the
profile name through a kernel parameter in Lilo so i can choose what
setting i want to boot with. Great stuff.

RE: [ilugd] Re: Suggestion required on CBQ !!!!!!

2004-03-30 Thread Ashwin Shah
You have to create the htb directory in /etc/sysconfig. Also the format
of the files is different. Htb should also be enabled in the kernel
either as a module or built into the kernel itself. Though in some ways
it is similar to cbq it requires to be compiled into the kernel first.
It will take a bit more effort than using CBQ but works much better. If
you still want to use CBQ let me know and I will send instructions for
the same.

Best regards

 After LinuxLingam's tasty and entertaining minutes
 of the March Meet,
 it's time to start looking forward toward the April
 Meet.
 
 The 3 basic questions are:
 
 1. Where (venue?)
 
 2. What (what's the theme of the Meet?)

How about localization of linux.

Lot of peoples are not able to use softwares just
because it's not in their mother tongue. IndLinux
(http://www.indlinux.org) and few others have been
doing effort for localization of linux. There are
still lot of things to be done. Here goes some of my
ideas:

1.) Softwares for peoples like shop keepers or those
who would like to do some computing if it could be
made easier for them. (Not at all mean that they can't
be a computer geek)

2.) As a educational media for students in rural
areas.

3.) Mail clients, messengers, browsers.

I propose we start next meet with configuration of
softwares in local languages and share ideas on new
and existing software projects for localization.

Now as agenda is already decided, I would still like
to give a talk on localization (If it's fine with
everyone :) )
 
 3. Who (will be speaking?)
 
 After doing some high-level integer optimisation and
 passing the
 questions through my Fourier Analysis and
 differential equations
 engines, I managed to distill the three questions
 into one:
 
 1. Who is organising the next Meet?
 
 Please step up if you would like to be considered.
 
 Oh, BTW, the March Meet was a ball of fun from start
 to finish!

  Any ways now when tentative venue is ready, we can
 think of theme of the meet. I guess we didn't had a
 Debian based meet for time memoriable. So how about
 having a Debian meet.
  Topics to be covered can be:-

 1) Introduction of debian and its philosophy to
 newbies.
 2) introduction to debian desktop, and demo of some
 apps (here we can include all the demos suggested by
 LL in a previous reply)
 3) Structure of debian, difference between redhat and
 debian configurations.
 4) Latest development in the debian world
 5) Guide to debian installation.

[ilugd] evolution tip: LL to LL

2004-03-30 Thread linuxlingam
dear all,

have successfully managed to create two shell scripts, that
automatically mount and unmount LL's RH8 home directory into LL's
fedora. works great. but the two shell scripts can only be run by root,
manually.

any way of running these two shell scripts automatically as root without
typing the password, but only when the user LL logs in?

okay, here's a small little tip i've discovered. 
i want to work with LL's evolution folders+contacts+calendar on RH8,
while working in fedora's evolution.

but i don't want to import. with just linking, i can work in either RH8
or fedora without having two separate archives to synchronize.

in the /home/LL directory of fedora, there's a folder called
'evolution.' i deleted it.

created a symbolic link to the evolution folder of LL on RH8, in
/home/LL of fedora, using the command ln -s.

launched evolution.

bingo!

i can work seamlessly in evolution in either RH8 or Fedora.

:-)

Okay so now I know there was nothing wrong with my setup but OO users
(even gedit) were complaining that their apps disappeared for no reason
when we enabled openmosix for a trial period.

Tell me is there any way around this? Anyone who has setup openmosix
without facing this issue?

Sorry for cross posting on many lists but I feel this needs to be sorted
out or people made aware of likely pitfalls.

Hello Ashwin,

Thank you for your response. I have a RHL9.0 with kernel 2.4.20-8 on i686.
Should I require to patch my kernel? If yes, Please suggest which version it OK for
this.

I have checked the following command
# grep htb_qdisc_ops /proc/ksyms
But it returns nothing.

Thanking you.

 You have to create the htb directory in /etc/sysconfig. Also the format
 of the files is different. Htb should also be enabled in the kernel
 either as a module or built into the kernel itself. Though in some ways
 it is similar to cbq it requires to be compiled into the kernel first.
 It will take a bit more effort than using CBQ but works much better. If
 you still want to use CBQ let me know and I will send instructions for
 the same.

 Best regards

Well i am not really using any organiser right now as the syncing is not

that could work but its too cumbersome to use, partly because of the
standards used by Sony Ericsson in the phone i use. Kontact is also a

have the calendar extension is must say its really usable and good

[ilugd] Email server with dual gateways

2004-03-30 Thread Ankur Rohatgi
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
Here is a problem i am facing and before attempting a fix i wanted to
get an idea from the people on the list as to the easiest way to address
this issue.
We have a mail server connected to the Internet and LAN on separate LAN
cards. The default gateway is the Internet router on this one and the IP
is also the primary MX. It is working well doing the mail thing.
We have an Internet gateway machine which also has a separate Internet
connection (diff ISP) and its also on the LAN. I have forwarded the mail
ports from the ext interface on this one to the LAN IP of the mail
server. Forwarding is done using iptables and the source IP is
maintained when forwarded. The Internet IP of this machine forms our
secondary MX.
Now the problem is the whenever the primary MX is down and a connection
is made on the secondary , it forwards the connection to the mail
servers LAN interface. Now since the source IP is maintained in the
forward its certainly not from our LAN and needs to be routed out. The
connection does not complete since the mail server is trying to send the
return packets through its default gateway , which ofcourse is the other
ISP's.
I would like to tell the mail server that if it gets a packet through
the LAN interface, then it should send it out using the same interface
and using xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx as the gateway (which is the LAN ip of the
other gateway machine)
I hope i was clear enough.

thanks in advance ,

Re: [ilugd] Email server with dual gateways

2004-03-30 Thread Naresh Narang
Ankur,

   It appears to me that you are not using a secondary
mail server independently. Why should secondary mail
server be contacting primary to deliver mail. The
purpose of having a secondary mail server is defeated.

I would setup a box to run secondary mail server
independently. Setup rsync to sync up password /
shadow / group / services files and /home from primary
to secondary. When primary mail server goes down and
mail is being received on secondary, fetchmail can be
used on primary to retrieve mail from secondary box
and deliver it on primary box so that it will be
transparent to users.

P.S. The subject line leads one to think there are two
gateways on same box.

Hi Ankur,

I believe you need source based routing.
iproute2 can help you in this. Such that if the src is the 
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ( which is you WAN IP of your Secondary MX server) sent 
it via local
interface of your primary mx server.

Yash
