K -Original Message- From: Linux on 390 Port [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Hare, Tim Sent: Friday, August 24, 2007 4:04 PM To: LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: Live Virtual Class, Aug 14 - Virtualization Basics (10am NY time) A slight correction - ICS (aka iCalendar or RFC 2445) files have dates in ISO format, but they are NOT required to be in UTC. The standard allows timezone definitions and references to them within the file. Often UTC is used because it makes it easier, but it's not required. They also allow floating time, expressly for some cases where you want to load events into your (insert name of device / user agent her) but you don't want to have to change the time zone on it when you travel.. for example, when I go to SHARE I get the events in floating time so I can just load them in the PDA and leave the time alone. Partly because of these, and other issues, there are many interoperability problems with calendars. The Calendar Scheduling Consortium (www.calconnect.org) exists to work on those issues, and has I believe mades some progress. You might want to check them out. Many vendors are members, as well as universities and open source projects. Regrettably, Microsoft has not joined - although I believe they may have attended one or more interop tests. I do agree that it would be nice to have an iCalendar (RFC2445 not Apple's product) attachment whenever there's event data.

Probably we can all translate GMT to our local times. What, you don't have one of those handy dandy timezone changers on your desktop toolbar? Heck, even Windows has that. I use mine all the time to figure out what the time is in other parts of the world. Or you could use the world clock, or In John's defense, it is a bit annoying that people in the US tend to assume that the US is the center of the known universe (thank goodness it's not). Since he's in Australia, that 16 hour time difference is Not Fun At All for non-US attendees to US events, particularly for those in Asia. Trying to schedule conference calls with people in Japan and China is a major PITA. A possible solution would be to add a ICS (Internet Calendar Service) meeting notice to the posting (would require some work on the mailing list server to permit .ICS files to pass the attachment filter). Times and dates in ICS notices are in ISOdate format with times in UTC, and Notes (finally!) can generate and understand them properly, as does Outlook/Exchange and the other similar widgets. Then the meeting schedule would appear in the proper local time. -- db -- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 -- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 -- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390

DEF STORAGE v. AUTOLOG Linux Guest
In working with a product that uses DCSS (OMEGAMON for zVM and Linux) for passing information, I have run into an issue where my Linux guests won't start automatically after an IPL. It is my understanding that there are two ways to setup DCSS with Linux: 1. Create a memory hole and define it using the DEFINE STORAGE command, say, in the PROFILE EXEC. 2. Place the DCSS higher than the defined memory for the guest and use the Linux /etc/zipl.conf file to define a higher memory boundary as available. In order to have a Linux guest properly startup, am I forced to use option #2? When I go with option #1, the DEF STOR command does a reset that interrupts any following command in the PROFILE EXEC.

Not at the moment, but I'll ask around inside Novell. I need to send a file to a remote server who requires ftp over ssl. I made a mistake and assumed that sftp was the same thing. I understand vsftpd supports ftp over ssl but I don't see how to setup a client to initiate the data transfer process. The vsftpd package doesn't contain an ftp client, SSL-enabled or not. Also, I read in one of the threads sftp (using ssh) could also be configured to support ssl. I have not found any documentation the shows how to configure that either. Any help would be very much appreciated. The ssh/scp/sftp commands all use SSL to encrypt traffic, all the time. You don't have to do anything to enable it. As you mentioned in your first paragraph, though, sftp is a distinct protocol from FTPS, so you can't use that to talk to an SSL-enabled FTP server. If you're up for building your own package from source (using RPM, of course), I know that lftp supports FTPS. If you really, really need something that works until I can find an answer, that's one option.
