Is it not utopian to expect that people in the past were all pure
hearted and shared everything (no evil thoughts...hehehe...)?
Knowledge is power and social relationships are defined by power.
Guilds, Rajahs, Mathematecian (read history of pythagorus), 
all indulged in power and control. Rebels through the history rose
against this (establishment) and forged new paths and thoughts. But
these breakaways also fell into the same trap sooner or later. Power
corrupted even the idealist society of Karl Marx dreams!
Having said that (and becoming self proclaimed rebel) there are large
tracts of knowledge that are now open and shared, more we can expand
this domian better the world shall be. Ideals need to be cherished.
Long live FLOSS!!

I have not used qmail, but postfix.  Have you checked the log files ?
Increase the debugging level and then try running it.  Another option
would be to start it in non-daemon mode and then running the checks.

In the context of the ILUG - D meet in the Himalaya - Novemeber is 
really not snow season - unless one goes high up. But it is still not 
low season - every   one seems to have holidays during those days.

er.. that's a wrong statement. even western civilization did not initially
have a proprietary culture. for instance, the phoenicians gave the greeks
the alphabet freely, even if for commerce. the romans took it further. the
greek, roman, and the post-roman empires such as the ottomon empire thrived
on cultural cross-pollination. the ottomon empire, founded circa at the fall
of constantinople, survived till the early part of the 20th century.

the great italian renaissance was greatly influenced by the influx of
fleeing greek and other scholars from constantinople, blending
middle-eastern knowledge, science, maths, arts and mysticism with western
traditions. newton did not have 'proprietory' rights over his laws and
equations. he published them to share them. even earlier, leonardo di vinci
did not have proprietory rights over his inventions and genius. the
gregorian chants also had a similar orientation.

move from western civilization to the far-east. in india you find a strong
culture of sharing, down from buddhism being shared across the far-east by
travelling monks and saints, to the precious knowledge of ayurveda shared
with the rising civilization of tibet, and allowed to fork into tibetan
buddhism.

vandana shiva would have a whole earful on how agricultural communities and
tribes through the centuries till modern-day have been non-proprietory.

i made a surprising discovery recently. while reading an insightful book on
mysticism and philosophy, i stumbled across a paragraph that mentioned that
the concept of 'ownership' itself, is a recent phenomenon in human society
and culture. the concept of ownership arose with the rising concept of
'fatherhood'. shocking as it may seem, tribal civilizations do not have a
socially-defined concept of fatherhood. only motherhood. plato and socrates
also mention this. even today you can find whole tribes in africa, and even
in india, where communities only have the concept of motherhood, and even
the biological father is often unknown. such tribal communities suffer less
from modern-day neurotic problems, and the concept of 'property' is
different from ours, where everything is shared by the community as a tribe.

sure, we can laugh at them. and they can laugh at us. maybe they are going
to have the last laugh.

imo, the current western civilization is at the other extreme. it would take
decades and possibly a whole century before the wheel turns again. by that
time we'd all be dead.

so while alive, in the meantime, i'm using gnulinux, supporting
creativecommons, and composing unplugged music on my guitar.

Re: [ilugd] 17" plasma/lcd monitor recommendations

2005-10-13 Thread Mithun Bhattacharya
I have a DELL UltraSharp 1704 which gives me 1280x1024 @ 32 bit color
according to windows ..

I dont think you will find a 17" TFT which gives you 1400x1050
resolution.

Also this LG of yours is a TFT or a CRT ? I am surprised to hear you
are getting 1400x1050 on a 17"CRT - arent they equal to a 15" display
area ?

Do note a TFT will always give lesser resolution compared to a equal
viewable area CRT. Also fast moving images dont render too well on a
TFT unless you are ready to sell your kingdom for it :).

Just released: The entire "Best Practices for Managing Linux and UNIX
Servers" in one PDF file.

Careful implementation of best practices is a proven way to eliminate system
problems, smooth network management, and increase overall efficiency. But
the steps that ultimately can turn a complex network into a self-managing
environment are not intuitive.

"Best Practices for Managing Linux and UNIX Servers" breaks down the issues
you need to consider, discusses the pros and cons of different management
techniques, then walks you through the process of implementing best
practices for your system. Along the way, you'll learn about:

* Infrastructure and data security
* Backup and restoration
* Change management
* Performance management
* User management
* Fault management
* Task automation

No fluff, no gibberish: just expert tips and methods that you can put to
work.

If you haven't been downloading my e-book "Best Practices for Managing Linux
and UNIX Servers," now's your chance to download the entire book in PDF
format.

Actually the culture was proprietary, not because of copyright but
because of difficulty of reproduction.  Books could not be copied (or
only copied laboriously), music could not be taped and software didn't
exist.  The only thing that was ``non-proprietary'' earlier was the

Subhasis, Did you read Kenneth  question thoroughly? He made it amply
clear that he is using Mandrake and FreeBSD. Tell me how your answer
can remotely help him. SELinux is only available on RHEl 4.0 and FC 3
and FC4.

I am not sure whether it used to work properly with
older versions or not. I think Ankit/Bill should be
able to let us know that.

Ya its using Raghu, try with Gargi 
http://www.indictrans.org/src/fonts/Gargi_1.7.ttf

seems there is problem with conjuncts, will have to see what toolkit
tuxpaint is using.  gtk2.x & qt 3.2.x or above work well with Hindi.
if its not using them then some library like m17n
( http://www.m17n.org ) could be used.

Type the "Akshar" then press "D", it will put a

[ilugd] unable to connect to qmail smtp server

2005-10-13 Thread loving linux
Dear All,
We are running FC4 with default kernel
2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 with qmail.
I am new to qmail and i didnt know the setup these
people have here, as there ex-employee has left the
organisation and he has made some chages to some
configuration files due to which the server is facing
some problems. One major problem is the mail server,
which is a qmail server.
I have checked the qmail how to at:
http://www.flounder.net/qmail/qmail-howto.html and
accordingly i have checked /etc/tcp.smtp and this file
look like this:
127.0.0.1:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
192.168.1.XYZ:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
192.168.1.:allow,RELAYCLIENT=""
:allow

192.168.1.XYZ is the internal IP of the machine.
Now when i telnet the smtp i got this error:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1).
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.

Can someone please help, though i am getting help from
google :), but i would like someone to help me getting
started in quick time.

Thanks a lot
sudeep

[ilugd] Tuxpaint hindi translation woes

2005-10-13 Thread Nishant Sharma
Hello all,

I've translated some strings for Tuxpaint. I am
running Debian Sarge updated till date with
ttf-devanagari-fonts and kde-i18n-hi packages
installed. 

Here is the screenshot of the interface:

http://nishants.net/hindi/tuxpaint.html

As you can see, fonts are not being rendered correctly
in case of "Matra" and "ardha-akshar". Where could be
the issue?

According to Bill Kendrick, who wrote the software:


Hrm, FYI the font we're using right now is:
"Raghu" (also called "Raghindi"),
  a Hindi TrueType font ("raghu.ttf"):

  Designed by Prof. R. K. Joshi
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,
  with with the help of Vinay Sayanekar.


I will be thankful for any pointers. Karunakar
listening? ;-)

Nishant

"there has always been proprietary culture" is TOTAL BULLSHIT.
not even in the west was this true in history.

copyright is a recent phenomenon just a few centuries old.
didn't expect lawrence lessig to make such a goof!

nevertheless, stuff like CC, FSF, brings a small ray of hope that the
problems of copyright, ownership, patents, may be removed.
maybe not.
