Re: running wine using a read-only windows directory
You can read from NTFS but there are still problems writing ti it. Look at : http://linux-ntfs.sourceforge.net/status.html#ntfsdriver I wanted to do that myself in my dual-boot machine (that has WinXP) but then I've read the following warning at Wine User Guide [ http://www.winehq.com/site/docs/wine-user/index ] , and didn't want to lose my files ... --> 5.5.8. Installing Wine Using An Existing Windows Partition As Base: --> http://www.winehq.com/site/docs/wine-user/config-drive-main#CONFIG-WITH-WINDOWS [quote] We HIGHLY DISCOURAGE people from directly using a Windows partition with write access as a base for Wine!! (some programs, notably Explorer, corrupt large parts of the Windows partition in case of an incorrect setup; you've been warned). Not to mention that NTFS write support in Linux is still very experimental and dangerous (in case you're using an NT-based Windows version using the NTFS file system). Thus we advise you to go the Unix directory way. [/quote] Oren Maurer meorero <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> running wine using a read-only windows directory I saw that wine can run on an installed windows directory instead of a fake one. I tried to make it run using my installation of windows XP, it started up fine and then died with an error that it can't write to C:\Windows.

Re: Convert Hebrew Text Between Codesets

Re: New catalog of academic libraries and Hebrew
In the _Old_ version (Aleph 300) you can connect with Telnet shell. With the _New_ version (Aleph 500) - no more Telnet. Only Web interface. AFAIK - there are only three Universities left with the old version: the Technion, HUJI, and Bar- Ilan. For Bar Ilan - ("inside Info" ) the plan is to move to the new version within a few months (by February 2005). As for the HUJI (Hebrew University) and the Technion - I assume that theres also a plan to move to the New system. So we wont have the Telnet way :-( By the way - you can try access all web catalogs via: http://libnet.ac.il/~libnet/malmad-israelnet.htm > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Re: New catalog of academic libraries and Hebrew >>On Fri, 11 Jun 2004 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >> The problem, in short, is that Hebrew letters appear at Mozilla and Konqueror as >> English Capitals.

As the user named DoK mentioned at WhatsUp, Ex Libris write in their _Official_ web site: [Quote:] Our sophisticated, easy-to-use Web OPAC serves as the users gateway to the ALEPH 500 system. As the Web OPAC is based on HTML pages, it can be customized to meet your librarys specifications. Requiring only a standard Web browser on the users workstation, the OPAC provides access to library information at any time and from any location [/Quote] Ths is on: http://www.exlibris.co.il/aleph.htm Oren Maurer [meorero] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Re: New catalog of academic libraries and Hebrew Hi, I reported this exact problem, with detail and screenshots, to the library IT personnel at Haifa University and at the Weizmann Institute. The former blatantly rejected it [1], while the latter passed it on to Ex Libris, the makers of the software. I got no further response, despite my followups. That was well over a year ago.

Problems configuring NFS-server
Hallo friends and list members. I have some problems configuring NFS-server. Trying to mount the server I get this : $ mount_nfs 10.0.0.8:/usr/BSD/usr mount_nfs: bad MNT RPC: RPC: Timed out The client is OpenBSD3.4 (and that's the command). Yes, I DO KNOW, this is a Linux list. But I suspect the problem is at the NFS-server which is to be on Debian (stable) . (and I've reached here after a long discussion at the BSD-il mailing list mainly with Gal Ben-Haim). ##- Some More Details: ## =+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ That's what I have in my /etc/hosts.allow file: portmap: 10.200.1.2/255.0.0.0 : allow lockd:10.200.1.2/255.0.0.0 : allow mountd:10.200.1.2/255.0.0.0: allow rquotad:10.200.1.2/255.0.0.0 : allow statd:10.200.1.2/255.0.0.0 : allow That's what I have in my /etc/exports file: /usr/BSD 10.200.1.2(rw) Now, that's what I get by running "rpcinfo -p" to the server ip ("10.0.0.8") and to the client ip ("10.200.1.2"): mydeb:~# rpcinfo -p 10.0.0.8 program vers proto port 102 tcp111 portmapper 102 udp111 portmapper 1000241 udp 1024 status 1000241 tcp 1024 status 132 udp 2049 nfs 1000211 udp 1037 nlockmgr 1000213 udp 1037 nlockmgr 1000214 udp 1037 nlockmgr 151 udp 1038 mountd 151 tcp 1029 mountd 152 udp 1038 mountd 152 tcp 1029 mountd mydeb:~# rpcinfo -p 10.200.1.2 program vers proto port 102 tcp111 portmapper 102 udp111 portmapper This output is the same by running from "rpcinfo -p" at client The client is OpenBSD3.4 but I suspect that the problem is at the server side (Debian, as I said).
