 Budget is not an issue. But it should fulfil my requirements
 
 1. Handling at least 4 simultaneous calls
 2. Calls can be routed / redirected / forwarded to ANY other phone or Mobile
 after taking suitable choices (as airtel or vodafone customer care) from the
 intended users.
 

Do keep in mind that if you may have a situation where you want to
forward 4 calls then you would need 8 lines and cards to support those,
one line for incoming and another for the outgoing.

 Hi All,
 I am looking for a laptop and the reason I am mailing it to list is - ease

 With my budget in mind I have many options, but after buying it I don't want
 to bang my head installing Linux.
 Any distro is fine with me although I am comfortable only with Fedora (as I
 primarily work on RHEL).
 

In my experience i have found that normally HP/Compaq laptops are the
best bet with Linux compatibility. If you dont have a specific

I have been trying to avoid BBerry phones for a long time now. I used
the Treo 650 with chattermail for a long long time. You can use any
phone that supports IMAP-IDLE, that is the best alternative in my
opinion and mostly FREE. Its pretty much an instant push email solution.
Your email provider may already support the IDLE command, most dont even
know if they do or not.

I switched to a Nokia e90 communicator recently and unfortunately while
it supports IMAP-IDLE, its not too good doing it. So i had to bite the
bullet and get the blackberry connect software on my e90. Which i think
is still better than getting a blackberry phone.

Hi Karan,
I agree, especially with Airtel offering ONLY 1 unmetered GPRS plan. The
e90 however had problems holding on the connection and very often it
would lose the connection to the remote inbox. Also there is a major
limitation (which is also in the BBconnect), the sent email remains in
the phone, there is no way to send it to your sent IMAP folder.
Something that was done very well in chattermail.

Hi,
Using a USB modem would mean that you need to use a PC/Notebook to
connect the modem and wireless access point and act as a bridge between
the wireless and dsl network. Ideally you want either a modem/router for
your Airtel connection that provides a network connector or my
suggestion is to get a wireless router that has the ADSL modem built in.
I use SMC and DLINK wireless routers with the modem built in and they
work perfectly with Airtel.
Let me know if you need any more info.

We use a simple fedora based distro in various locations, called

mentioned in your email. We dont have any admins on staff but are able
to use most of what you have mentioned above through a simple management

It is for a quick and simple solution for most of your problems. It is
not for people who want to or are capable of putting together such a

You can try qtparted (http://qtparted.sourceforge.net) but only if your

Obviously you need to take backups etc as partition editing can go

Conceptually you will have to use a round robin approach where net
requests will be sent out on the 2 links alternatively. This will
certainly help your browsing but will do diddly squat for things like
ftp unless your ISP supports bonding, which i am guessing is a fat
chance of happening. You may also want to read up on traffic shaping to
further tune your links.

You may want to read this http://www.ssi.bg/~ja/nano.txt , i know its a
couple of years old but it is still relevant and kind of simple enough
for someone new to routing.

For a simple load balancing you dont even have to do much, simple
increase the metric of one link and that should do it, but as i
understand you want to combine the links so you should do as mentioned
above.

You can also search on google, it brings up some interesting reading.

 was curious to know if anyone of the list knows of blackberry being used
 with Linux OS. and if so what are the reviews etc.

 and was seeing on the net that there is anothr device called Treo.

 How do the two compare.

 would appreciate your various opinions.

 and Yes I did a search on the net and am then asking the list.

I have been using the Treo 650 for almost a year now. I think i had
posted a message on the list when i had started using it and how it
works with Mandrake 10.1 . I was able to get it working almost fully,
although using bluetooth. The USB cradle did work, sometimes, mostly it
would hang so bad that i had to do a reset on my laptop. Using the
bluetooth i was able to use OBEX transfers between the phone and laptop
plus sync it with Kontact using kpilot. Another thing worth mentioning
is that both DUN and reverse DUN worked, i was able to use my GPRS
connection on my laptop and also my laptop internet connection (wired or
wireless) on the phone by simulating a PPP connection over bluetooth.

A huge advantage the Treo has is the Palm application library which has
been growing since the OS has been there for years. This collection of
applications allows you to cover almost all areas of work/play and is an
ever expanding collection. Just this morning i was able to SSH into our
mail server and restart the postfix daemon which had crashed, while i
was in the car.

As for the much hyped push email of the BB, there is a push email
solution for the Treo which i have been using. Its an application called
Chattermail which works with any IMAP based server that supports the
IDLE command. I can thus use it with various mail servers and i
currently get mail pushed to me from 3 different mail servers all
running linux. All it needs is a gprs or such data service from the
service provider. The same gprs account is also handy when using other
IP services, i use it a lot to stay connected using Yahoo/MSN/AOL
instant messengers, even when i am traveling within India (provided the
area has coverage from Airtel, as in my case)

I dont have any experience with the BB under linux but i tried using the
BB by itself and i didnt like it. For one, it doesnt look like a phone
at all so it seems a little silly to hold it next to your ear and talk
into it, my opinion ofcourse, many people are happy with it. The other
problem with it is the proprietor OS etc which means lack of third party
apps which in turns means limited functionality.

The BB in my opinion is for one thing only, mobile email and that too
from your service provider. You cant have your office email on your
blackberry unless you buy their enterprise server or forward your office
email to the account that the service provider gives you. In a way you
are locked into that service provider and you pay much higher fees for
this service.

 Now, comparison between Trio and BB:
 1. Try google.com
 2. The basic solution features of BB are push mail and security, since
 they are pushing this mail post encryption.
 3. You can compare this with the basic solution features for Trio and
 see how it goes, from what I remember, Trio is just a simple
 SMTP/POP2/IMAP pull based solution.

Well, the Treo actually. The basic out of the box Treo truly does only
POP/SMTP and IMAP but this is where the Palm based device shines. Using
third party applications i can expand it like no BB ever can. I am using
PUSH based imap email and smtp all using SSL so its quite secure. I dont
pay the high amounts that Airtel charges for their BB service, i just
pay the high amount they charge for GPRS :), but the connection gives me
a lot more than just email.

Best of all, i get my office email without having to deal with Exchange,
that just makes me smile :).

with the worst case scenario being BB service getting shutdown in USA.
There are also some rumors that BB may actually be interested in buying

Next quarter though the Treo with MS mobile OS is coming out and that is

[ilugd] [OT] MTNL DSL connectivity

2005-11-17 Thread Ankur Rohatgi
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1
 
Hi all,
I am thinking about augmenting our office connectivity with the MTNL
dsl service. Does anyone have any experiences with them lately ? Their
service used to pretty much suck when they launched their internet
services years back but lately i have heard some mixed reviews. The
plans that sound interesting are the oddly named TriB Cyber A and B
plans that while being data capped, office 2 and 1 mbps connectivity.

Any comments/reviews welcome.

thanks,
- - Ankur.

Hi,
Could you elaborate a little about why you think VSNL is a better option
? Does VSNL offer dsl connectivity ? I dont want a leased line.

thanks.

 The maximum resolution it can do is 1600 x 1200 @68Hz which should be 
 satisfying to you.

Probably not so satisfying since what he wants is an LCD monitor and the
Samsung one is a CRT.

Raju for a high res like that you will have to go for a 19 and in that

take a look at Acer.

 I gave http://192.168.0.100:631/printers/DeskJet but Windows doesnt
 like it even though I can see it using a browser on the same machine.
 

You would need to add a new TCP/IP port to your machine, in the port
address mention the IP address of the IPP server.Choose to add a printer
on your local M$ machine and then you can add a new port after that.

Details can be found in the M$  website, i dont want to cut and paste
from there.

 Is there anything else that I should be aware of? My desktop box is

Havent visited the links you pointed out but i have setup a couple of
wireless lans (home and enterprise) so i would like to add my 2p :

1. Buy a wireless router (about 3k) rather than trying to setup an adhoc
network between your PC and Laptop. Its much easier to setup and you
dont need to keep your PC switched on. You would however need a net
connection that gives you an ethernet connector, not USB. Get a 802.11
B+G (stay away from the A standard).

2. I usually take 3 measures to secure the network :
- Disable SSID broadcast (makes the network invisible)
- Enable WEP or WPA encryption, latter is better but your router and
client both need to support that.
- If security is really important, enable MAC level access control.

I would like to add here that doing the above will not give you
foolproof security and a determined hacker may still get in but it gives
you pretty good protection. Ofcourse there are many other levels of
protection but the more protection you add the slower your network will
become and be quite a bitch to setup.

Just like a condom CAN break but you would rather use it anyway :).

have fun,

- Ankur.

The script will be of little help. You need to be able to send the
message to an SMS gateway. I know Air tel has closed their gateway,
Hutch i think still accepts emails as [EMAIL PROTECTED] or something
and that gets forwarded as an sms. For Reliance also you would need to
be able to send a message to their gateway. I had done a lot of
searching for this solution and finally had to connect a phone to the PC
and buy SMS in bulk from our provider. Then we were able to send SMSs
through the email server.

The only real solution i can see is to use IMAP, if your server supports
the IDLE command its even better and your emails show up in thunderbird
almost instantly, ofcourse you need a always on connection too. IMAP is
also great if you use multiple email clients and/or webmail. See if you
can use that. If its gmail you are referring to, that doesnt have IMAP
as far as i know.

[ilugd] Palm Phone Sync

2005-03-26 Thread Ankur Rohatgi
Hi all,
I had been struggling to get my phone to work/play with Linux and after
a lot of pain i gave up and changed my phone to a Treo 650 from Palmone
a few days back. The phone by itself is amazing and i have gotten it to
work perfectly with my Mandrake 10.1 Official.

I can use the cradle to sync with kpilot/kontact and i can also install
applications on the phone. Whats really great is the bluetooth
connectivity with which i am now able to sync, transfer files, do DUN on
my laptop, do reverse DUN and have my phone use my internet connectivity.

I am convinced that if phone/PC connectivity is what you want (without
windows) then Palm is the way to go. If anyone is interested please
contact me and i can provide more info.

cheers ,
- Ankur.

[ilugd] Problem with the terminal login prompt not showing

2005-02-27 Thread Ankur Rohatgi
Hi all,
i have a peculiar problem, i am using Mandrake 10.1 Official and though 
the GDM loads up perfectly and i am able to login, i cant login through 
the terminal. I tried Alt-F1,F2 ... etc but i keep coming up with blank 
screens. The first one does display the boot messages but it should then 
give me a login prompt which it doesnt.

If i login through the gdm then when i switch to the terminals i can 
then see the login prompts.

what could the problem be ?

[ilugd] Extra Multimedia keys

Has anyone managed to use the multimedia keys on the keyboards ?
I have a Microsoft Natural Wireless Multimedia Keyboard/Mouse which i
use with SuSE 9.2 , yes Microsoft, i hate to admit it but their
keyboards are actually among the best, which goes to prove that they
only put their name on it and not make it.
The keyboard/mouse works perfectly without any issues, except that i am
not able to use the many extra keys. I struggled with lineak for a long
time but it seems my OS is not able to capture the extra keys. I
searched google and based on info found through it, I tried a key
capture utility in X but it didnt seem to get anything from my key presses.
Can anyone direct me to some useful resource ?

Hi Ritesh,
I used my winmodem (built into Dell notebook) under Mandrake using the
Linuxant drivers for sometime. It works great, the free version though
is limited to 14.4k, you can buy the driver and that removes this
limitation. I now use SuSE Pro 9.2 and that loads the drivers for my

For WLAN i used the ndiswrapper under Mandrake but now i am using the

[ilugd] Routing Problem

2004-10-22 Thread Ankur Rohatgi
Hi all,
I have a RH9 based box that has an internet connection on eth0 using an isp 
(isp1), on eth1 i have a lan connection. The lan is connected to a router 
that also has an internet connection from another isp (isp2). The default 
gateway for the RH box is isp1. I also have some ports forwarded from the 
isp2 router into the same box.

Now the problem is that packets coming in from isp2 through eth1 are not 
getting replied. Packets are coming in but its trying to send replies 
through the default gateway thats isp1.

Is there any way i can get both routes to work ?

The X windows has very little to do with the monitor, nothing important
except the refresh rates. The install anyway would use 60Hz as the
refresh rate and that most certainly will be supported by your monitor.
You may have a problem if you try to use an unsupported refresh rate.
I would think this is problem more to do with your graphics card, than
the monitor. In your X steup you might want to try changing the monitor
selection to some generic VGA and see if that works.
Is there any message that appears on the screen when the X tries to
start ? What exactly happens, it would help if you can elaborate.

Hi Amit,
I had recently set up a campus wide WLAN for a business school and also
have a mixed LAN in my office as well as home. In terms of reliability
and speed, the wireless does not stand any chance in front of a wired
LAN. However largely it depends on your network requirement. 802.11b
seems slow but if you just browsing the internet and your uplink is less
than an MB then its fine. You do have the ability to move your
PCs/Laptops around freely in a wireless network (obviously provided
there is signal). The cost of the wireless LAN may seem a little higher
upfront but if you get proper structured cabling done by a decent vendor
you may actually end up paying more for your wired LAN. You may want to
take a look at some propreitory speed standards (DLINK has one and so
has SMC) which speed up the WLAN even more, but they will only work with
their own brand.
I would suggest a mix of Wired and Wireless, use cat6 or atleast cat5e
for your wiring so you can move up to gigabit over time. For your
wireless i would suggest a hybrid wlan access point (one that will
support B along with either A or G). Most centrino notebooks come with B
wireless and unless you ensure all wireless clients are of higher spec,
it wont really help would it.
For linux, there is limited support for WLAN especially in the case of
centrino notebooks. That said, i use a centrino notebook running SuSE
9.1 and drivers from ipw2100.sourceforge.net , without any issues :) .
In case of your desktops, since you would be buying wireless cards
anyway, look under the hardware list for your linux distribution and
find a compatible wlan card.

Why dont you take PCs with HDDs and load windows on that. Make a Samba

so all the data actually resides on user home directories or shares setup.

Re: [ilugd] [OT] Suggestion for laptop

2004-08-10 Thread Ankur Rohatgi
On 08/10/2004 01:59 PM, Sandip Bhattacharya wrote:
Hi!
I have been looking around for a laptop which is somewhat Linux friendly, and 
is cheap and offers good value for money. Till now have been finding Dell 
Inspiron 5150 quite attractive. Have any of you had any experience with it?

From my brief reading on various google links, Dell's support is quite 
pathetic. Other than hardware problems, have any of you had any problems 
which require their tech support?

I spotted a person at Baazee 
(http://www.baazee.com/jsp/BidForm.jsp?Trade_TradeId=26559397) offering one 
for about Rs. 60k. However, for several reasons I would find it more secure 
to buy it from a proper dealer, than trust one of these kinds(with no sales 
history, hardly any details of shop, etc.). Do any of you know some good Dell 
dealers in Delhi who can give a good price?

Lastly, is cheap finance for laptops available on any brand like IBM, Dell 
etc. available in Delhi? I mean some thing like an instalment plan for 
payment? In that case I can consider upping my budget currently about Rs. 
60-70k.

Any other suggestions of laptops are welcome. I would like one which offers 
wifi, atleast 40GB HDD, 15+ monitor, and till I am sure about linux 
compatibility - preferably no Centrino. (The Dell one is probably Centrino 
though :-P ). I heard even Dell 600m is nice.

Hey Sandip ,
Firstly dont talk that way about baazee sellers , i sold a couple of 
laptops that way ;).

Dell IS bad as far as Linux is concerned, check out www.tuxmobil.org and 
www.linux-laptop.net for more info on particular models and their 
compatibility. I still have some unresolved issues and hoping someone 
fixes them and publishes the fixes soon.

BTW Dell is a direct selling company, no dealers. You gotta pay 100% 
advance to Dell and wait a couple of days (depends on model)  for 
delivery. Someone will come and 'install' the machine, even laptops 
hehehe , usually from HCL. This  practice of selling is something they 
follow everywhere.

You can get a personal loan for the laptop, i am not aware of any 
'laptop specific' loans.

I would consider Acer also, their laptops are not bad, had a bought a 
few for someone and since the lower end ones have linux preinstalled, i 
dont see a compatibility issue.

I would suggest you add the second network (as set on the MX record)

second MX comes into action and the email still would go through the

If you are unable to add another network to the scanning mail server

[ilugd] Wireless Internet Access

2004-07-12 Thread Ankur Rohatgi
I have to provide temporary Internet access to a location and dragging 
wires is not an option. Both Tata Indicom and Reliance claim to have really 
good Internet access through their wireless phones. I was wondering if 
anyone has tried both so i can get a comparative idea.
I just got a Tata Indicom fixed wireless phone and it has a serial cable , 
no usb available. I havent tried connecting through that yet, my laptop 
doesnt have a serial port ;) . The reliance web world also said their 
phones can get the serial cable but again no USB, USB cables are for the 
handheld phones only. Would a Serial-USB convertor work ?

Secondly what is the status of the Linux compatibility ? They both have 
their respective CDs with dialers, can we not skip those ?

I was looking at Dell system mostly. Google reveals mixed results by

components lack support for Linux.
Hi,
I use a Dell Latitude X300 and am quite happy with it in general. I did 
not buy the laptop keeping in mind Linux support but other reasons so i 
cant really expect it work as advertised under Linux. If you are looking 
for a Linux compatible (there is a lot more to compatibility than just 
sound/network/graphics) then dont look at Dell. They are notorious for 
their lack of support. You should go for either HP/Compaq or IBM , look 
at www.tuxmobil.org for details on specific laptops.


Do the systems supporting Intel Centrino technology work on Linux ?
Hoping to get some useful inputs :)
Mine is a Centrino and some stuff works while some doesnt. Graphics is a 
go and is well supported. Modem , nope still trying to get that working. 
Sound is working. Wireless works with either a commercial wrapper 
(www.linuxant.com) or the ndiswrapper project at sourceforge which is 
what i use and WiFi is now working. ACPI is not ok and that one of the 
reasons why Dell is not good, they have a history of buggy BIOS and 
unless you want to use some of the modified DSDTs out there, look at 
other laptops. Lan was ok with updated broadcom drivers.

I recently installed clamav+Mailscanner in a couple of places (as some
people saw from the incorrect headers LOL) . Anyway give that a look,
its very flexible and offers a number of rules based configurations for
most options. It also integrated with Spamassassin quite well.
And not that YOU would want to, but someone else might like to know that
it has a great webmin module too.

I am assuming you mean under X when you mean graphical, why you have X
installed on a gateway is another story. Well if you can do with semi
graphical then you should try iftop . Also ntop through the web is great
for detailed stats.

Re: [ilugd] Email server with dual gateways

This would not work as the source is not constant. The gateway forwards
the source so the mail server sees a connection from whatever mail
gateway is trying to send email. We dont want the mail server to see the
source as the lan ip of the gateway since the lan is trusted. Also the
mail server will do no IP checks on the connection.

Nice site, lots of stuff. This will keep me busy for a week to go
through :).
Some of the software i have settled on, apart from the usual stuff on
Mandrake 10 :
- Thunderbird (Eudora doesnt seem to want to evolve anymore, time to
move on)
- Opera (I was very happy this was also available in Linux, the
interface though sux a little)
- Kopete (Now i dont miss trillian)
- Prozilla and Downloader for X
- MC and Krusader
- Digikam
- Evolution
I am still left wanting in the areas of :
- ACPI stuff (Dell it seems does not make the best BIOS and i am at
their mercy to make something thats better, even though i can now
poweroff the laptop there is no battery indicator)
- Syncing my NON NOKIA phone with Evolution (even though i have
bluetooth working, no success with sync so far)
- Ankur.
