Traffic Squeezer is a WAN Acceleration solution: http://trafficsqueezer.sourceforge.net/http://trafficsqueezer.sourceforge.net/ The project development is still under progress. The delivery of the solution I want to provide to the end-users as a stand-alone Linux Distro along with pre-installed Traffic Squeezer solution. Since Traffic Squeezer has the code both in kernel level as well as in user-space I want to make it as a complete custom Linux installable distro and bundle. I never worked ever building a custom Linux Distro. If there is anyone who want to volunteer you are welcome. Or possible if you have any suggestions or ideas on the same please feel free to communicate with me. Thank you foks. Kiran Kankipati I would question the need for a custom distro. Seriously, if the skeleton is there from an established distro, and you only have a few tweaks here and there in the kernel to really worry about, the I'd say work with the distro and build a package (along with building the kernel package or kernel modules needed). I'd probably do it built on top of a minimum debian (say, a net install) and try and fit things in to the Debian Way of doing things. Like all major distros they have well-defined ways to do stuff. A skeleton saves you a lot of pain (don't repeat yourself) and enforces discipline which might otherwise make your design messy and repetetive (don't repeat yourself). If you still really think you need to avoid the standard design and policies then you can certainly go ahead with a nasty installer script that installs on top of the distro and breaks policies. It won't be as popular as a real package though. ___ 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/

Take a look at revisor : http://revisor.fedoraunity.org/ - very easy to
use, and does a good job.
*if (you going with revisor ) {*
Its a very good tool, One can include their package( infact any) in
fedora live by adding repo files at time of creation the spin. You can
make your own package in rpm format and then host a local yum repo and add
it the revisor configuration files and then create your distro. I wanted to
make a my own fedora custom distro which has many utilities like (picasa,
mplayer etc)but never got time to do that. Two times i was failed at
dependencies.
Also, If you have fedora repos the change configuration for fedora repos for
packages otherwise it will try to download every package from internet.
Also I will suggest to go with kickstart files which will save a lot of time
and useless repetitions,

[ilugd] Samba + anti-virus
A client is running a few hundred Winduhs PCs in his office, with 3 Linux FC Samba servers. Facing tons of problems with viruses on the shares, so we're looking for a Samba+Anti-virus solution. 1. Investigated Samba-VScan and Scannedonly. Both are totally alpha, and both refuse to compile against the Samba 3.0.28a sources. Knocked out at the starting gate itself. 2. Need to investigate an IDS (Snort) running in conjunction with Samba. Has anyone tried (or heard of) this as a Samba anti-virus solution? 3. Any other possibility (apart from switching the desktops to Linux, which is currently not feasible)?

[ilugd] Internal-External HDD: Possible ?
Hi guys, I need advice about what I should buy. I want to use an internal hard disk as an external hard disk. I think PATA/SATA convertors to USB are available but what is to be done about power supply to the disk when it is outside the cabinet ? Is such a contraption available ready-made in Delhi ? If so, what will it cost me ? All suggestions welcome.

[ilugd] Internal-External HDD: Possible ?
but what is to be done about power supply to the disk when it is outside the cabinet ? There are Hard disk case available which are used for this very purpose, converting regular HD to USB, they come with power cable and adapter, so to use them you have to plug in the supply separately. Is such a contraption available ready-made in Delhi ? If so, what will it cost me ? All suggestions welcome. Yes it is available, in nehru place you can find lots of shops selling them. Cost varies from 100 to 500+ INR depending on brand and other things. -- Regards Shantanu Choudhary ___ 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/
