[ilugd] Linux Based routers
Dear All, We have two 512 kbps broadband lines from VSNL with static IP address and ADSL router. Currently I want to club both the lines in a single Linux System and get an total 1 mbps bandwidth for load balancing. How can we achieve this? What do we need to do? One suggested the option of using BGP / OSPF in Linux based router with zebra, but I am new to Linux and routers what should I do? Is there any other option ?

Re: [ilugd] Student mentorship program (Comments)
On 12/27/05, Gora Mohanty [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: That sounds like a plan. I would propose that while some people are clearly associated with specific areas, it also ought to be possible for a skilled mentor to have the student project be a module for something that is still in active development by the mentor. E.g., one such idea that some of us have been kicking around is Indian language OCR. Though none of us really have credentials in this area, we have some thoughts, and some preliminary work. So, my proposal would be for the mentors to do some groundwork in listing potential projects, modularizing them, assigning timelines and checkpoints in having students complete these. Then, we go to the colleges (a first physical interaction is very important, IMHO), and my guess would be that the level of student participation would scale with the quality of the planning by the mentor. Exactly , as the problem is basically (in General ) the Students lacks in Ideas and Development Techniques , not in skill sets. Yes, I think that the projects should be curricular, i.e., they should fulfil the students' fourth-year, or whatever, project requirement. As for getting colleges to agree, we only work with those that do. We are already talking to at least two colleges, and the NRCF apparently has 50 lined up (probably in Chennai, though). How to Include a College into this. I agree here. Actually, I am a bit sceptical of this whole idea of bounties. I believe that they send the wrong message about what should drive one to get involved in a FOSS project. I think that we should describe any money paid to students as stipendships. Plus, we could have prizes for best projects. Corporate involvement is OK, I suppose, but we have to work out details. Do they bring their own projects, and their own mentors? If they are funding a mentorship program, what freedom are we given in the nature and scope of the projects? Stipends or bounties for students, on the other hand, sounds like a good idea -- bribe the buggers into doing FLOSS! :) The stipend involvememnt could give students a good reason to put their Best and Scratch Their Head -- Smooth Sea Never makes a Skilled Mariner Linux User #348873 http://gauravmishra.modblog.com ___ 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/

I really doubt that it will work since PDF format is meant for GUI based viewing. You will not be able to view it in text mode. The program mc will only try to open the document through a PDF reader (xpdf, acroread, evince, etc.) and will fail to do so since there is no graphical display. -- Manish ___ 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/
