Subject: [ilugd] Query reg. LTSP Installation


 Hi everyone,

 For quite a time I have been trying to implement LTSP in my office.
 I used PCQLinux 2004 which comes with LTSP pre-installed on it.

 Now I have two queries :

 1. I want to do a fresh installation of Linux. So, for LTSP should I use
Fedora Core 1 or 2 OR a stable version like Red Hat 8/9.

 2. I tried booting 5 different systems in my office using LTSP. 4 of them
succesfully booted, but none of them booted to the GUI screen. All gave an
error that XFree86 is not able to load the driver. I used auto and the
screen type in settings. Out of those 2 have Intel 810 graphics and
remaining 2 have SiS 6326 and Cirrus Logic Displays.

 Kindly provide me some help on the above.
 Thanks to all who respond.

 Kunal

[ilugd] [Fwd: [blug-non-tech] LUG Meets: Are they still relevant]

2004-07-22 Thread Tarun Dua
Very interesting!!! 
And I thought it was only me wondering.

I was just wondering how relevant LUG meets are in today's world. Lesser
participation and a seemingly low enthusiasm at BLUG meets points to a
lack of interest in these meetings. Here are some reasons that I could
think of for the diminishing interest.

a) We can find Linux users everywhere. About 5 years
ago, a LUG meet was the only place where I could find other Linux users.
It was exciting to go the meets and discuss stuff! Things are different
now. Almost every college student uses Linux, more offices are beginning
to use Linux and one does not need to wait till the end of the month to
have a face-to-face meeting with another Linux user.

b) Easier Internet access. Almost everyone has easy access to the
Internet now, even from home. And the number of sites providing help and
information have increased tremendously. If I have a problem, I have to
just type my query into Google and, in most cases, I can find an answer
immediately. Thoughts and ideas are shared on blogs and other public
sites.

There are many more reasons, but from what I have seen in the past few
years, the above reasons are major players.

So, are BLUG meets still relevant? Do we need to change the
format/frequency for the meets to make them more interesting and get
more involvement?

[ilugd] I/O perf improvement

2004-07-22 Thread Navjot Singh
Hi,

I have RH 8 installed on my machine. Tomcat/Apache/MySQL are installed
to run few web applications.

The machine usually gives OK kind performance. BUT when i take MySQL
backups to other machine over NFS (that i have to take every 4 hours),
the perf of web apps go down drastically,

What i can see if as Backup does lot of I/O, and the apps also do lot
of I/O for log processing and all. so this may be the problem. because
other times, the apps give faster response.

What could be the ways to improve I/O perf. I have IDE and dont and
wont ;-) have SCSI drives.

any insights if can fine tune something in linux.

Hey All!

Am back after a hiatus of over 2 months ;)

Lesser
 participation and a seemingly low enthusiasm at BLUG

I can very confidently state that BLUG meetings (and
hopefully ilug-d - i haven't one attended since
LinuxAsia..:) are in no shortage of members who want
to hang out and talk about linux. I think thats more
so with ilug-d because of the informality and 'snakes'
which is prevalent (not to mention the original Guitar
twanging and SciFi book meets coupled with them). The
BLUG meets on the other hand, have [sic] become
corporatized [/sic]. 


 It was exciting to go the meets and discuss stuff!
 Things are different
 now. Almost every college student uses Linux..

Correction. It IS still exciting to go, meet other
people and discuss stuff and debate about issues as
varied as which distro, or how barista is too
expensive, and satkar's rules ;) Secondly, most
college students might use Linux as a compulsion,
which is definitely not in the same vein as getting
hooked on to something new and exciting. Talking to
people who fall in the latter category might rub some
enthusiasm off  them!

 ..Internet now, even from home. And the number of
 sites providing help..

But we come back to the oft discussed topic.. Is the
internet (and BBS's before) the end of our social
skills as we know them? Searching google (or even IRC)
for a technical problem is one thing, but looking for
expressions and epressing thoughts on blogs is a
totally wierd concept, if seen in mutual exclusion of
face to face contact. You NEED to go talk to people,
drink, eat with them, and generally talk about stuff.
I'm part of the Delhi Blogger's group, and even THEY
have group meetings every month. (Do a google on
DelhiBloggersMeet). 

I really don't think the concept of meets is going to
fade away for a long time. 

[Kartik, the original thread creator btw, is the
maintainer of the BLUG list. Or was till a while
ago..]

PS, this was just an off the cuff reaction to the post
;)

Ciao!

Package: libapache-mod-ssl
Vulnerability  : several
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Ids: CAN-2004-0488 CAN-2004-0700

Two vulnerabilities were discovered in libapache-mod-ssl:

  CAN-2004-0488 - Stack-based buffer overflow in the
  ssl_util_uuencode_binary function in ssl_util.c for Apache mod_ssl,
  when mod_ssl is configured to trust the issuing CA, may allow remote
  attackers to execute arbitrary code via a client certificate with a
  long subject DN.

  CAN-2004-0700 - Format string vulnerability in the ssl_log function
  in ssl_engine_log.c in mod_ssl 2.8.19 for Apache 1.3.31 may allow
  remote attackers to execute arbitrary messages via format string
  specifiers in certain log messages for HTTPS.

For the current stable distribution (woody), these problems have been
fixed in version 2.8.9-2.3.

For the unstable distribution (sid), CAN-2004-0488 was fixed in
version 2.8.18, and CAN-2004-0700 will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you update your libapache-mod-ssl package.
