Re: [ilugd] Domain name problem

2006-12-17 Thread bimal pandit
Dear Abhinav,

I have seen your posting on ILUGD and also checked your web sites i.e. 
www.rkgec.com and rkgec.com While www.rkgec.com opened correctly there was a 
problem with rkgec.com, I have gone through your configuration too and found a 
few things… 

#61623; Your domain is actually having address and IP as ns1.rkgec.com and 
61.17.123.186 respectively .
#61623; www.rkgec.com is actually a CNAME (Cannonical NAME) to ns1.rkgec.com 
#61623; I also found that the machine www.rkgec.com (61.17.123.186) is the 
only m/c with all the following services running on it - DNS, Web, Mail
#61623; For mailing purpose you have use root@ rkgec.com.

on these findings I had a few recommendations for you as…

#61623; Redfine your servers with the service it will be running and load, 
this would mean separate m/c with suitable configurations(as per server and 
load) as in my view this will help you in securing and management of these 
servers.
#61623; Your config should be like 

www 86352INCNAMErkgec.com.
rkgec.com.  86352INA61.17.123.186
ns1.rkgec.com.  86352INA61.17.123.186
rkgec.com.  86352INMX   10  ns1.rkgec.com
rkgec.com.  86352INNS   ns1.rkgec.com.

this could also be done differently, also time parameter could be tuned 
as per your requirement. Further in case if you go with my suggestion for 
separate servers then this entry would be like ….

www 86352INCNAMErkgec.com.
rkgec.com.  86352INA61.17.123.186
mail86352INMX   10  Mail Server IP
rkgec.com.  86352INNS   ns1.rkgec.com
ns1.rkgec.com   86352INADNS Server IP

Here your mail server will be mail.rkgec.com, web server will be rkgec.com/ 
www.rkgec.com. and name server will be ns1.rkgec.com

#61623; Change your mail address for the reports to some other e.g. [EMAIL 
PROTECTED] etc.

Further I have written a small article on DNS which could be of some help, see 
at … http://fedoranews.org/mediawiki/index.php/How_to_configure_DNS_Server

In case if you still need my help then shoot your queries to me at [EMAIL

It seems that I am not able to make it clear, let me try again, just assume as 
how a use enters a cybecafe and then get access to net i.e say a user comes in 
at 8.00PM he gets a username and a password another comes in at 8.14PM he also 
gets a username and a password and so on.  while suppose everybody asks for 
1hr net surfing then after 1hr their account should be lapsed and they wont be 
able to surf further.

1)while writing an acl wont solve the problem as every time i need to write an 
acl based on every new time a user comes in at and the block its username after 
the specified time period in all it is not providing me flexibility to set the 
rules.

2)every time i need to reload squid to get my acls read by it.

3)every time new username and password has to be generated.

acl and iptable along with radius, I could not understand the idea though or 
may be either of us is not clear what I wnat to say, if this is the case please 
let me know so that I will try to re-explain it.

  Am facing two problems in Thunderbird 1.0.2 on Ubuntu Hoary (5.04)
 
  1. After reading all the mails the in folder continues to show unread
  mails (*in bold and brackets*) they disappear some time later or
  sometimes remain till the next lot of mails get downloaded.
 
  2. The inbox takes a long time to load , after start up of Thunderbird.
 
  will appreciate knowing what is wrong and how to rectify.

Are you using IMAP ?


do this and will be solved!!

suppose the user is bimalpandit, so close thunderbird opend by this user and 

cd /home/bimalpandit/.thunderbird/xxx.default/Mail/Local Folders

of his thunderbird directory on your system and save/move the following as

mv Inbox Inbox.ORG
mv Inbox.msf Inbox.msf.ORG
mv Inbox.sbd Inbox.sbd.ORG

now your actual mails are moved and are safe for future in case... now do as

cp Inbox.ORG Inbox
cp -r Inbox.sbd.ORG Inbox.sbd

and now open thunderbird, will rebuild and will work as it should, I mean both 
your issues will be GONE!!!

hope this will help.

Dear Sir,

---SNIP-

Thus, one can't unmount the CD cuz it's supposedly busy, and one can't eject the
CD cuz it's mounted. The only solution being a reboot.

---SNIP-

use umount -l device also could use fuser to identify the PID/Process 
which is making your device busy and then kill it.

[ilugd] Solution - MS-TNEF WINMAIL.DAT Attachments and LINUX

2005-09-19 Thread bimal pandit
MS-TNEF WINMAIL.DAT Attachments and LINUX
-
Dear All,

Today(19/09/05) I received a mail from a user with a call that he has received 
a mail and is unable to open it in linux, the mail has winmail.dat as 
attachement, I googled and found the following useful sites and solution...


ABOUT WINMAIL
-
Mail programs in the Microsoft Exchange family, which includes Windows 
Messaging, Outlook97, Outlook98 and Outlook2000+, will include a TNEF 
(Transport Neutral Encapsulation Format) attachment named WINMAIL.DAT when the 
sender selects, or defaults to, RTF (Rich Text Format). If the sender is using 
MIME formatting, this attachment will have Content-Type: application/ms-tnef.

The TNEF attachment includes a Rich Text Format (e.g. bold, underline, fonts) 
version of the plain text message. If the sender has included any attachments 
(e.g. pictures, spreadsheets, programs), they will be embedded within the TNEF 
attachment and not as separate attachments.

Most other mail programs do not know how to handle the TNEF attachments and so 
Exchange family users should avoid using RTF unless they know that the 
recipient has a compatible program. The sender can control the use of RTF on a 
recipient by recipient basis. However, if sending via a Microsoft Exchange 
server, the server can override the sender's settings. In this case the 
Exchange administrator will need to make changes on the server.

For more information on this, see the following articles:-
-How Message Formats Affect Internet Mail, HOWTO: Force a Particular Internet 
Encoding by Using MAPI with Exchange,

-XCLN: Sending Messages In Rich-Text Format,

-XFOR: Preventing WINMAIL.DAT Sent to Internet Users, Sending RTF with 
Attachment as MIME Loses Attachment,

-XADM: POP3 Users may not Receive an Attachment if Part of DL,

-XFOR: CR Receives Rich Text Format Information Unexpectedly, Winmail.dat 
attachments are included in received e-mail messages in Outlook 2002 or 2003 .

after going through all these, the solution I found is... 

SOLUTION

-save the winmail.dat attachement in some directory, for e.g. I am taking here 
/home/bimal/test as my directory, I saved winmail.dat file over here.

-installed a package tnef-1.3.3-1.1.fc3.rf.i386.rpm on my Fedora Core 3

-enter into the test directory and did 

[EMAIL PROTECTED] test]$ tnef  winmail.dat

this will create a file Document.pdf in the same directory, now use some pdf 
reader/viewer to see/print the content. 

I used acroread, kpdf and GNOME pdf viewer but unfortunately xpdf did'nt worked 
for me!!

that's all is required, for further info do man tnef.

hope that this will help a few people.

regards,

Bimal Pandit

[ilugd] OT - Thunderbird-1.0 rpm

2005-02-01 Thread Bimal Pandit
 -  as a GENERAL USER 
--
here i have taken an example of creating this rpm package as a general
user bimal
so you need to login as bimal, on a terminal do as...

[EMAIL PROTECTED] bimal]$ mkdir rpm

[EMAIL PROTECTED] bimal]$ cd rpm

[EMAIL PROTECTED] bimal]$ mkdir SOURCES SPECS BUILD RPMS RPMS/i386 SRPMS

create a file .rpmmacros in the home directory with the entry as shown

[EMAIL PROTECTED] bimal]$ vi .rpmmacros
%_topdir /home/bimal/rpm

[EMAIL PROTECTED] bimal]$ cd /tmp

[EMAIL PROTECTED] temp]$ vi thunderbird.spec 
and changed Release : 0.FC1  to  Release : 0.rh9 so that it will
remind me of RedHat 9 package though if you don't do this still no probs
as in this case you will get a package named as
thunderbird-1.0-0.FC1.i386.rpm instead of
thunderbird-1.0-0.rh9.i386.rpm, while as far as i know there is no
much difference between RH9 and FC1, almost all the packages for FC1
gets installed on RH9 too!!, well here i goes...

[EMAIL PROTECTED] temp]$ cp thunderbird.spec /home/bimal/rpm/SPECS/

[EMAIL PROTECTED] temp]$ cp thunderbird.desktop /home/bimal/rpm/SOURCES/

[EMAIL PROTECTED] temp]$ cp thunderbird.png /home/bimal/rpm/SOURCES/

[EMAIL PROTECTED] temp]$

so this will create a rpm package in /home/bimal/rpm/RPMS/i386/
directory while src.rpm in /home/bimal/rpm/SRPMS/ directory.

now to install this rpm package do as(needs root access)

[EMAIL PROTECTED] temp]# rpm -ivh
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/thunderbird-1.0-0.rh9.i386.rpm 
OR
[EMAIL PROTECTED] temp]# rpm -ivh
/home/bimal/rpm/RPMS/i386/thunderbird-1.0-0.rh9.i386.rpm

now this package(thunderbird-1.0) is available to all i mean to any
common/general user!!

To check this out, login as normal user(gui mode), click on
redhat(main/start icon)
-- Internet -- Mozilla Thunderbird Mail Client

in the last, many many thanks to FedoraNEWS.ORG team especially to
Mr.Thomas Chung and please dont forget to visit this site
http://fedoranews.org/tchung/thunderbird/ , it has got lot of 
important/useful tutorials for duffers like me.

So... Got it, OK, enjoy!!! mailing...

[ilugd] Web browser plugin problem.

2005-01-19 Thread Bimal Pandit
Dear all,

i am facing a peculiar problem as --

i am trying to open a website www.besindia.com using opera browser
(opera 7.22 also tried with opera 7.54) on redhat 9, for this it
requires application/x-java_vm to show the running BSE figures, i
installed j2re-1.4.2-05 and did as per the messages/info from net i.e. 

ln -sf
/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_06/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so
/usr/lib/opera/plugins/

now this site did accepted it but said(message) applet crashes and
trying to debug it has given me ...

[EMAIL PROTECTED] bimal]$ opera --debugjava --debugplugin 

opera: [java] There seems to be a preloaded version of Xt.
   There is a workaround for this problem in the opera
   startup script.  If that workaround fails, opera will
   most likely crash every time it tries to use Java.
   The workaround seems to be working.
   Technical explanation:
   There is a problem with the order of loading Xt and
   Java.  If Xt is loaded before libawt (part of Java),
   Java will crash when it tries to access the screen.
   The workaround is based on using LD_PRELOAD to load
   libawt.so first.
 
opera: [java] The Java enable flag will not be reset
   because the OPERA_FORCE_JAVA_ENABLED environment
   variable has been defined.
 
opera: [plugin probing] /usr/lib/opera/plugins/libnpp.so
opera: [plugin failed ] /usr/lib/opera/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so,
/usr/lib/opera/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so: undefined symbol:
PR_EnterMonitor
opera: [plugin probing] /usr/local/Acrobat5/Browsers/intellinux/nppdf.so
opera: [plugin banned ] /usr/local/netscape/plugins/libnullplugin.so
opera: [plugin probing] /usr/local/netscape/plugins/libflashplayer.so
opera: [plugin failed ]
/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_06/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so,
/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_06/plugin/i386/ns610-gcc32/libjavaplugin_oji.so:
undefined symbol: PR_EnterMonitor
opera: /usr/lib/opera/plugins/libjavaplugin_oji.so: undefined symbol:
PR_EnterMonitor
opera: Could not initialize spell checker interface. File not found or
could not be opened (-7)

so again i reverted back to net, found that libawt.so should be read
before java so tried 
 
export OPERA_JAVA_DIR=/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_06/lib/i386/
export LD_PRELOAD=${OPERA_JAVA_DIR}/libawt.so
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${OPERA_JAVA_DIR}:${OPERA_JAVA_DIR}/client/
export OPERA_FORCE_JAVA_ENABLED=1

in /usr/bin/opera, but am still

has anyone tried/used/done this??

need your valuable inputs.

regards

bimal pandit

Dear Sir,

i have found that this network in route creates a lot of problem, so
just remove this as

route del -net 169.254.0.0/16

and put some DNS IP in /etc/resolve.conf say,

Nameserver 217.237.150.33
Nameserver 217.237.151.161

then test as 

on terminal do 

host www.google.com

this will show you the IP of google

hope this will help

 If you know the IP of remote machine then you can ssh and the run

 routinely do this. First the remote admin starts the modem and connect
 to internet and then he phones / IM's the IP to me. I login using:
 $ssh -X -l username I.P.

freeswan could be one of the options.
