  Well, even though there are 5 laptops at my home, I still feel that its

  Is there a way i can find out the daily usage on each machine through a
  setup on a *single* computer?

 1. Setup a Linux machine as the gateway using iptables  masquerading
 2. Add a USB wifi dongle to it to make it as a wifi access point.
 3. Disable the wifi on your wifi router and connect via LAN your Linux
 machine to the wifi router.
 4. Ask  your family members to use your wifi dongle's access point to
 connect to the net.
 5. Install vnstat on your Linux machine and you can monitor the total
 bandwidth (periodically).
 6. Use iftop on your Linux machine to determine which user is consuming
 the most bandwidth at any given point of time (in realtime). Remember to
 press 'n' to disable name resolution, otherwise you'd see the most
 connections being established to your dns server.

 You can use a laptop with inbuilt wifi too instead of getting a USB wifi
 dongle and keep it On for the entire duration of your testing. If at night
 no body is using the net, then maybe you can put the laptop to standby.

 That sounds doable. Will try Vivek and get back to you if I am stuck
somewhere. Thanks for the response.

[ilugd] Monitor Broadband usage

2011-03-26 Thread Abhinav Sahai
Hi,

I have an Airtel broadband at home. As per Airtel's FUP even unlimited plans
come with a 25GB cap on the usage.Even though i am on that plan since 8
months, since past 2 months after some 20 days i get a mail from airtel
saying that my limit has expired and speed goes down to 256 KBPS (from 1
MBPS).
Well, even though there are 5 laptops at my home, I still feel that its not

 25 GB ( bytes, not bits ) is quite a large amout of traffic to comsume in a
 single month, unless there is a lot of streaming, downloads of large media
 etc going on. At home, I seem to average about 18 - 21 GB a month, and this
 is including the fact that we do some streaming ( BBC's iplayer! in HD ) and
 i have internet radio running through the waking hours of the day.


Yup, that's why even I am wondering. While airtel's site shows up my usage
details including time/date and data transfered, i am quite unsure if that's
correct, however i can't complain until i have some proof from my side.



  Is there a way i can find out the daily usage on each machine through a
 setup on a *single* computer?


 Does the router/modem device have an snmp option ?

Not sure if that's there, probably if you guide me on how to find that out,
i will be answer you. By the way, it's the default Beetel wifi router that
comes with Airtel connection, if that helps.


 that is the only way ( doing metrics at the edge ) that you are going to
 get accurate figures. Also might be worth making sure your neighbours are
 not 'sharing' the connections :)

Am sure they are not, as its secured and we know nobody in the
neighbourhood, yeah we are bad at that :)

[ilugd] disk not ready

2011-02-19 Thread Abhinav Sahai
Hi,

I have 4 partitions on my dual boot laptop, loaded with Ubuntu 10.04 and Xp.
Initially i could use 3 of the 4 partitions in Ubuntu while all 4 in Xp. The
4th partition was detected as RAW system in ubuntu. To get all 4 working, i
just re-formatted the 4th one through Xp, a NTFS partition. Now when i start
my machine in ubuntu, at the start, before login screen, i get this message:

The disk drive for /windows is not ready yet or not present.
 Continue to wait; or Press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery.


I tried waitingbut the wait never ended.
I tried M, it gave me the shell, not sure what to do then.
I tried S, i could login and to my surprise, I could use the partition
normally.

So now i can use the partition but each time at startup I have to press S
to skip that screen.

I know it is the sda9 partition, so I checked the /etc/fstab file : it says:

# /windows was on /dev/sda9 during installation
UUID=800E-359A  /windowsvfatdefaults,umask=007,gid=46 0   1

So i added the line:

/dev/sda9 /media/82gb ntfs-3g defaults,user,locale=en_US.utf8 0 0


to the fstab file. Now, even though the partition is auto-mounted when i
login in but the initial screen where I have to press S still exists.

Please tell me where i am going wrong or what do i need to do so that that
skip screen does not come each time on booting.

Thanks,
Abhinav

 Well, to me, these were minor annoyances that I was willing to put up with,
 especially as I imagine that they will be solved with future kernel
 releases.
 At that price point, the laptop is a steal: Comparable models from other
 manufacturers (e.g., Dell, Lenovo, etc.) were over 70K, though I am not
 sure
 how build quality compares. Your mileage might vary.

  Anyway, I bought Dell Inspiron 1545 with freedos, around a year ago, and
 it
  never had any problem in using Linux and/or installing any device driver.

 Yes, Dell in general does have better Linux support, and their build
 quality for
 the business laptops is good (the Alien series is also worth looking
 at). However,
 do not buy online from them, as their service is terrible, even though the
 site
 is nice. I had actually ordered a Dell online, but cancelled after what was
 supposed to be a 2-week delivery turned into over a month with no definite
 delivery date in sight, and no communication from Dell's side.

+2 for Dell. Bought an Inspiron 1545 without OS last year, works smoothly
till date (used Ubuntu 9.10 and 10.04).
Another one six months back, works smoothly again, 10.04.

[ilugd] mobile braodband connection ??

2008-07-21 Thread Abhinav Sahai
Greetings

I am due to move to various places in the next few months along with my
machine. I was looking for a broadband connection which could be taken
along. Can anyone suggest some connection which provide mobility along with
a good speed net access.
came across tata indicom's usb connection but didnt find anything saying it
supports linux or not.
If anyone of you has used or knows any such connection.
airtel is not available in the up-east region barring Lucknow, so its out of
question
I have an ubuntu machine, if thats needed
thanks and regards

 This is a PostScript file and you need a reader (eg, ghostview) to read
 it.

 Try opening the file with ggv . ggv is a good PS and PDF reader.

 $ ggv sadhana.ps 

thanx , that worked..

 thanx , that worked..

 Did you also reset the system time to the correct local time? Is

 If resetting the time does not work, you can always change the root
 password by booting into single user mode (edit the grub menu at
 boot time, add single to the end of the kernel line, and boot).
 This should bring up a shell prompt, at which you can use passwd
 to reset the root password.

 You should look up the ndiswrapper project

 It will let you use your windows drivers in linux.

[ilugd] file transfer

2006-06-25 Thread abhinav sahai
hi all
we have a network in our college hostels, now that requires a lot of
file sharing and in fact transfer. since most of the systems use
winduhs so they use vypress chat, which has a very good and fast file
transfer rate.
now the small amount of systems which use linux can't do that, or
infact for file transfer just login to windows because it takes a lot
of time copying
in fact one of us tried configuring vypress for linux and used it
through wine but it created  a hell lot of problems, had to be
installed each time, and hence we have stopped using that.
now anyone suggest me a good lan software for linux with a good file
transfer rate as well chat capabilities.

  Well one benefit is that if the code is seen,people can trust the software
 as there can be no malicious or nasty feature in the software.Another is,if
 others can see the code they can make improvements to the software and
 submit it back to the developer and many times bugs can be removed by the
 users rather than the developers.

 2) i dont know much about GPL and other type of licences,but what my friend
  said that if someone purchases some software like we were talking about
  zend
  studio then zend people will give them the source code of zend studio. is
  this right?


 You need not give them out the source necessarily but the source of
 software should be placed in a
  place that is easily accessible and you should give information on
 how to access it. But, you have to
  give the source if the person asks for it specifically, but you can
 charge as per
 your wishes for the media eg a CD or a DVD

 if that was right and someone purchases that
  or any s/w with source code then can he make the some modification n sell
  using his own tag(ofcourse he can do modification).
 

 Yes the other person can do that but he has to give credits to the original
 developer.


But who knows whether the a software produced by him has been
reproduced by some other party and selling it. I mean, is there
anybody who takes care of it(whether the original developer is being
credited or not)?

 PS:- There are many OSS licenses like GPL, LGPL, CDDL, BSD License,
 etc. I haven't read any of them properly. The answers above may not be
 applicable to some of the licenses. You should read them properly if you
 want to deal with them.
