Re: Setting up a PBX for Israel<->US communication

2009-02-05 Thread Amos Shapira
(I contacted several people off list for personal requests, I'm moving
the discussion back on-list because I think I saw interest in it
expressed before).

Someone basically said "I'll help you if you get yourself a server". I
like to keep costs down, I like highly-available servers (doing this
24/7 for my workplace now), and I started playing with Amazon EC2 for
work too - 1+1=... :)

Here are a few links I found in a quick search about running Asterisk
on Amazon EC2:

http://www.scribd.com/doc/3905321/PREVIEW-CloudCrunch-Howto-Asterisk-PBX-and-Amazon-EC2

And an interesting collection by Nir Simionovich, which contains a
link to asterisk.org.il (according to NoScript):
http://www.simionovich.com/?tag=asterisk
Including his tales of setting up stuff on EC2.

Hope someone finds this useful, and would like to cooperate with on
setting something like this up.

Cheers,

--Amos

Yes, "some American ISP" probably refers to AOL, which does all its
external connections through huge clusters of HTTP proxies, and each
request can arrive through a different IP. Load-balancers relaying on
source IP to keep connection persistent (bundle all requests from one
client to same real server to save on shared session data migration)
would break on that, there are probably other situations (e.g.
paranoid financial institutions worried about session hijacking).

But if the egress traffic line switching doesn't happen so much and
the site he accesses doesn't rely on source IP so much (but more on
session identifiers like cookies and url parameters) he might get
through - at least better than being completely down with one line.

Just a though...

Does anyone have any idea how can I install Ubuntu on this computer without a

Re: QuickCam installation on Wine

2009-02-05 Thread Hetz Ben Hamo
Moshe,

Wine does not support hardware, so it cannot install any drivers under
wine, nor any USB devices. It can use some "wrappers" to make devices
which are already have Linux drivers installed and loaded - can use
the hardware with wine.

IMHO, your best bet would be to install the webcam using Linux driver
(I think your cam is already supported under Linux) and use a native
Linux program with it. Kopete for example supports webcams so you can
use it with other people who use MSN messenger or Yahoo or ICQ.

There exists such a thing, but you need a PC with at least three NIC
cards to do it. Grep the Fedora or Debian archives, I remember seeing
some posts on that a long time (2-3 years) ago.

Note that there is the drawback that some websites don't like when
your IP address changes with every request, though! Apparently there
is some American ISP that does this as well, and those users have
problems with the same sites.

kgdb usage errors on strictly following kgdb authorss guide

2009-02-05 Thread Lev Olshvang


Hello all,

I am looking for explanation of the  kgdb errors and usage advice.

I am running Linux 2.6.15.5 system with a kgdb patches from the 
kgfb.linsyssoft.com.


I built a kernel with ethernet driver included (not module) and KGDB 
remote debug enable over Ethernet.


I am trying to strictly follow the guide I had downloaded from 
linsyssoft.com



First I tried to run debug other ethernet using kgdboe parameter on boot

I built a kernel with ethernet driver included (not module) and KGDB 
remote debug enable over Ethernet.


And the gdb session was stuck because the target system did not answered 
to ARP requsests

for 10.0.0.3
The corresponding section from gub.conf is

title Linux-2.6.15.5-kgdb(eth)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15.5-kgdb ro root=/dev/hda1 
kgdb...@10.0.0.6/,@10.0.0.3/

console=ttyS0,115200


So I suppose I should manually load network driver, but how can I do it 
from boot line and assign IP address to it ?

---

The second attempt I took with a serial 8250 driver
I had build new kernel with Serial driver configured  for remote 
debugging and


changed boot line to :

kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.13-kgdb ro root=/dev/hda1 kgdbwait 
kgdb8250=1,115200


*Question1 :  - docs says it must be kgdb8250=ttyS1,115200,
*
but when I tried this , the debug session even did not come to kgdb 
breakpoint.

Re: HOT ISP (Was: Orange as a landline ISP)

2009-02-05 Thread Amichai Rotman
Another personal war story:

I connected to Hot for phone internet and TV services.

Had some service disruptions on and off for about a year.

They sent me all kind of technicians - all the way up to the Sayeret
Menuim...

It seems the apartment upstairs (rented by students) had a bad RF cable for
an analogue TV in the bedroom, that injected a lot of noise to the whole
building!!

It took me forever to convince the tech reps over the phone that it is a
problem in the main switch box, but after persisting - it is finally fixed.

Most customers are unable to launch such a campaign, but it doesn't mean a
particular company is all bad. The problems are localized - no matter which
company you are subscribed to.

The main problem with all of them is their call centers - it is nearly
impossible to get real service from them...

Just my bit long 2 cents on the issue.

Sorry!!!

This was sent by mistake from inside the Linked In site.

I don't know how that ridiculous statement got in there also.

Please - all of you just ignore this post altogether!

And of course - My apologies to Baruch!

Hi
Try filtering with "tr":
Sick-file < tr '\0xbb' ' ' | tr '\0xef' ' ' | tr  '\0x3c' ' ' |  tr '\0xbf'
' ' >Healed-file
Of course, tr requires octal, not hexadecimal numbers. I was too lazy to
translate...
Cheers, Avraham

If you have another computer on the network, you might consider a
network install, if your BIOS/NIC support PXE.

> The computer already has an old version of Debian running on it.

You can try and add to the grub menu the kernel and initrd of the Ubuntu
installation, and if all goes well that should do it. Copy the files to
/boot, duplicate an entry in /boot/grub/menu.lst, change the kernel and
initrd lines to point to the files you copied, and add to the kernel
command line whatever's that in the Ubuntu installer (you can find this
out e.g. by looking at their network installation instructions, if you
can't look at the boot files on the DOK). However, if you have a problem,
you won't be able to boot to some rescue CD to solve it. If it's an
important machine, I think I'd first make sure I have some other boot
device with useful rescue media.

Is there a way to combine several "usless at some times and not others" 
connections to get a better service reliabilty and still not have to

go with SIFRANET (fiber optic connection) and BYNET as an ISP?

I think it would need a combination of automatic routing based on performance,
so that the connection with the best performance to a site was used. Most of
the time this could be static, but it would have to be dynamic enough to
handle connection outages and slowdowns.

It might even be enough to monitor a connection and if it fails, reroute
everything to the other connection and reset it when it came back, but the
purist in me prefers something dynamic.

It's not even a question of the best performance I can get at any given
momement from the proper routing, it's more just keeping things going
when a failure occurs. They used to be short, now they are several hours
or more.

Geoff,
