Re: [ilugd] Unable to findout HDD Space
Follow these steps: go to */ cd / * issue command *du* at the command prompt *du * It will show all the directories in */* with the consumed disk space. Whatever is taking more disk, go that directory and issue it again. It will again show all the directories/files with consumed space. By doing this u can easily find the core point of ur problem. * regards Sanju *Sandeep Agarwal wrote: Hi All, I am unable to findout where my HDD space is occupied.

Re: [ilugd] Unable to findout HDD Space
I think most of the space is taken by the /tmp directory.It seems that your temporary files is not deleting.So check your /tmp directory again and look which type of files take the space and how much. -Pardeep On Mon, 2005-07-18 at 12:17, Sandeep Agarwal wrote: Hi All, I am unable to findout where my HDD space is occupied.

You can cd to that directory and run the same command to find out the subdirectory taking up the same space, and so on. KDE has a beautiful tool to graphically show disk space usage bye directory.

[ilugd] What *is the Role of LUGs in Linux events in India?
Greetings, Over the past few weeks, there have been certain emails on the list dealing with how the various LUGs around the country can support events related to Linux and FOSS. The discussion seems to have turned towards how bad the vendors are and why they are the bane of LUGs countrywide. Arguments can go back and forth on these topics, but aren't we missing the point entirely? When the call for Linux Bangalore went out, it was an open invitation to *ALL* the LUGs around in order to garner their support and comments about how to go about making this event something different - Too many people have been to technical conferences which mostly follow the same trends. For those who don't monitor the LB lists: there have been dozens of comments from a number of sources which gave out a number of ideas which could potentially be incorporated into the event. And these sources aren't ALL limited to Bangalore or places nearby - some of them have been from people from around the country and the world. What is surprising is that no one from ilugd bothered to comment on it. IS it that surprising? (Correct me if wrong) Consider - the Bangalore LUG, if it exists at all, is a shell of what it once was. I can't speak about the other LUGs around - the Delhi LUG however still chugs on. Again, meetings supposedly in the interest of fostering community spirits have been turned into BOFs, which are [sic] cold, formal meetings geared to solve corporate or personal problems [/sic] - well, maybe not entirely, and although the participants aren't limited to a certain discussion topic, the closed nature of the meet puts off a large number. As for the previous thread in infinite wisdom Ritesh Agrawal spoke thus on 07/15/05 12:49: Today many topnotch vendors(IBM,DELL,HP,SUN etc) supporting linux as a weapon to fight agianst MS monoply. But they are not looking sincere to support open source philosophy. They treat linux as big market platform to sell their proprietary software and hardware. So Who cares? Why do WE, the OSS community want the corporate world to *Promote the OSS? It would be naive to assume that the vendors get anything at all out of supporting OSS. But isn't the crux here that WE NEED to promote the spirit. Where are those evangelists who wanted to take Linux and OSS to the grass roots? Those who wanted India to take up E-Gov based on FLOSS? Those who want the syllabi changed to introduce the option of non MS products? I'm not saying they aren't there - but to the common person, their activities in promoting their own community and cause is hardly visible. And on top of this, their non participation in *public events throws salt on an already open wound. The stress on Public arises from the so called competition between Linux Asia and Linux Bangalore, and how the respective LUGs are at loggerheads with each other , ideologically or otherwise. A popular opinion out there is that ilugd refuses to cooperate and work with BLUG simple because they want to snuggle up to LA and thus avoid LB. And, again LA seems not to have enough support in Bangalore because of the vendors there cowering in fear of alienating LB. Sheesh. Petty differences? Profit margins going down? Are these the reasons which appear to drag down the Indian FOSS movement into a quagmire? The community has really got to rise up in force and offer publicised explanations for their (in)actions. With the whole world raving about India and its IT prowess, and what seems to be the next phase - the Knowledge outsourcing paradigm, people sitting here can actually see those pipe dreams going down in waste (at least with reference to FLOSS). LUGs *will flourish. IS that a statement which can be taken at face value anymore? With all the contradictions, i find it hard to believe that unless a coordinated effort between groups around the country comes into action, India just won't succeed in its goal of adapting FLOSS. The question is, are we doing anything about it? Cheers, Viksit -- Viksit Gaur Deptt. of CSE, Yale University http://viksit.com __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

LA and LB? There is a competition? I had no clue, honestly. I dont see how either - there are too few Linux based events happening in the country, and my feeling is that the more the better! A popular opinion out there is that ilugd refuses to cooperate and work with BLUG simple because they want to snuggle up to LA and thus avoid LB. And, again LA seems not to have enough support in Bangalore because of the vendors there cowering in fear of alienating LB. Snuggle up to LA? LA is a vendor-targetted meet where ILUGD is more of a guest given certain lollipops to stay happy. How many ILUGD members feel emotionally attached to LA anyway? LB being more community based (from what I have read. I might be wrong coz' I have never been there), it is a world apart in the first place. Have people working out these conspiracy theories ever considered distance and cost to be a factor? Four days to-and-fro travel by train for a three day meet? or big bucks for a return flight? For most people regional events are more suitable, and feasible. We need more events througout the country, not consolidation of events. - Sandip -- Sandip Bhattacharya *Puroga Technologies * [EMAIL PROTECTED] Work: http://www.puroga.com * Home/Blog: http://www.sandipb.net/blog PGP/GPG Signature: 51A4 6C57 4BC6 8C82 6A65 AE78 B1A1 2280 A129 0FF3 ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

Re: [ilugd] What *is the Role of LUGs in Linux events in India?
Ahoy, --- Sandip Bhattacharya [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: LA and LB? There is a competition? I had no clue, honestly. I dont see how either - there are too few Linux based events happening in the country, and my feeling is that the more the better! Yeah, the only trouble is that the too few events themselves are fragmented. There IS a popular feeling that this is what is happening. Snuggle up to LA? LA is a vendor-targetted meet where ILUGD is more of a guest given certain lollipops to stay happy. How many ILUGD members feel emotionally attached to LA anyway? Exactly. This isnt/wasnt well known to the general public at all. Due to any number of reasons.. LB being more community based (from what I have read. I might be wrong coz' I have never been there), it is a world apart in the first place. You're right, it IS more community oriented. But the very fact that it is so, and the community doesn't want to support it is the problem. Have people working out these conspiracy theories ever considered distance and cost to be a factor? Four days to-and-fro travel by train for a three day meet? or big bucks for a return flight? The point here isn't that you *have to go ahead and travel the distance to participate. But, as a very relevant email on the LB'05 list points out - almost 30% of the janta who shows up is outstation.. For most people regional events are more suitable, and feasible. We need more events througout the country, not consolidation of events. Regional events are good, but they need to scale to the international level. Gathering crowds is ok, but the content needs to be great as well. Which is why people from around the world/country need to attend it, and speak/give out their comments on issues and technologies. And isn't this where a regional organization like a LUG has a major role to play? Doesnt it make sense for other such 'regional' entities to participate with them? No one's trying to consolidate here - its just that things happen that way. It wouldn't make sense for a guy from Pune to attend only the Bombay events, or the delhite to attend only the ilugd events. Irrespective of whether you can physically attend the event - your opinions/suggestions would go a long way in making it a success.

That way you'll find it easier to have diversity of demonstrations, organise infrastructure and have volunteers.

Affected packages = --- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected --- 1 mozilla-thunderbird1.0.5= 1.0.5 2 mozilla-thunderbird-bin1.0.5= 1.0.5 --- 2 affected packages on all of their supported architectures. --- Description === The following vulnerabilities were found and fixed in Mozilla Thunderbird: * moz_bug_r_a4 and shutdown discovered that Thunderbird was improperly cloning base objects (MFSA 2005-56). * moz_bug_r_a4 also reported that Thunderbird was overly trusting contents, allowing privilege escalation via property overrides (MFSA 2005-41, 2005-44), that it failed to validate XHTML DOM nodes properly (MFSA 2005-55), and that XBL scripts ran even when Javascript is disabled (MFSA 2005-46). * shutdown discovered a possibly exploitable crash in InstallVersion.compareTo (MFSA 2005-50). * Andreas Sandblad from Secunia reported that a child frame can call top.focus() even if the framing page comes from a different origin and has overridden the focus() routine (MFSA 2005-52). * Georgi Guninski reported missing Install object instance checks in the native implementations of XPInstall-related JavaScript objects (MFSA 2005-40). * Finally, Vladimir V. Perepelitsa discovered a memory disclosure bug in JavaScript's regular expression string replacement when using an anonymous function as the replacement argument (CAN-2005-0989 and MFSA 2005-33). Impact == A remote attacker could craft malicious email messages that would leverage these issues to inject and execute arbitrary script code with elevated privileges or help in stealing information. Workaround == There are no known workarounds for all the issues at this time. Resolution == All Mozilla Thunderbird users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose =mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-1.0.5 All Mozilla Thunderbird binary users should upgrade to the latest version: # emerge --sync # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose =mail-client/mozilla-thunderbird-bin-1.0.5 References == [ 1 ] Mozilla Foundation Security Advisories http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/known-vulnerabilities.html#Thunderbird [ 2 ] CAN-2005-0989 http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-0989 Availability This GLSA and any updates to it are available for viewing at the Gentoo Security Website: http://security.gentoo.org/glsa/glsa-200507-17.xml Concerns? = Security is a primary focus of Gentoo Linux and ensuring the confidentiality and security of our users machines is of utmost importance to us.

You describe your firewall/gateway requirements using entries in a set of configuration files. Shorewall reads those configuration files and with the help of the iptables utility, Shorewall configures Netfilter to match your requirements.

I hope this will help you. There's also an iptables tutorial link down there in the cheatsheet somewhere... Problem statement: You have a Linux machine connected to the internet via a DSL connection. You also have another PC at home (a WinXP PC for the purpose of this cheatsheet). You want that PC to share the internet connection with your Linux machine. Please note that whenever I say Linux, I really mean Fedora Core 3 and I have tried these steps with Fedora Core 3. The steps should work with other distros as well. Solution: Step 1: Buy (or otherwise acquire) a network card and fit it into the PCI slot of your Linux Machine. Step 2: Boot your Linux machine and let the hardware detection program (Kudzu) detect your card and install the drivers for it. Step 3: Buy a 'switch' or a 'hub'. Connect the new network card on your Linux machine to the hub. Also connect your other computer to the hub. Alternative Step 3: Don't use a switch. Instead, use a 'crossover cable' to connect the new network card on your Linux machine with the network card on your WinXP machine. This is useful if you only have one other computer that you want to connect to the internet. I have not tried this, but I believe this will work. I still recommend going with a switch. Step 4: FC3 will have configured your new network card as 'eth1'. Use the following command to configure eth1: ifconfig eth1 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 Step 5: Configure your windows machine as follows: IP Address: 192.168.0.2 NetMask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.0.1 (your Linux Machine) If you add another machine to the hub/switch, you can assign it the IP address 192.168.0.3 and so on. Step 6: Make sure you can 'ping' from one machine to the other. Step 7: Configure IP forwarding on your Linux Machine using the following commands: iptables --flush iptables --table nat --flush iptables --delete-chain iptables --table nat --delete-chain # Set up IP FORWARDing and Masquerading iptables --table nat --append POSTROUTING --out-interface ppp0 -j MASQUERADE iptables --append FORWARD --in-interface eth1 -j ACCEPT - Assuming one NIC to local LAN echo 1 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward (Please refer:http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/LinuxTutorialIptablesNetworkGateway.html) Step 8: Configure DNS on your Windows machine. Run the following command on your Linux machine: cat /etc/resolv.conf From the output of the entries, pick out the 'nameserver' entries and specify these entries in the network configuration box on your windows machine.

I have only one broad band connection that I want to share using RH router or Squid proxy.
