Re: Using XFCE 4... What can I turn off to make it faster

2003-07-28 Thread James McDonald

 Hi James.

 I use XFCE 4 on a number of laptops and what has helped me most is running
 prelink over the install.
What is prelink?

Umm never mind -- http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/prelink-howto.xml

 This is done on GENTOO, but I would assume that
 prelink can be found on the net somewhere and used on your Mandrake as
 well.

 Cheers.

 Yes, I didn't mean to imply that UW-imap wouldn't work
 with Postfix. I should have clarified that what I was
 saying was that Courier-IMAP works with Postfix, my
 preferred MTA. And that Courier has performed very
 well. UW-imap installs very easily, but it was much
 slower when handling a load. Have the
 postfix-Courier-IMAP-SquirrelMail combo set up for a
 system that serves about 200 users. Works well.
 Courier also supports secure connections (SSL), though
 I haven't set that up yet, so I can't comment on
 Courier's implementation of it.

Have you sorted out a way to have SquirrelMail use more than one 
imap server? This is what has kept us from using it company-wide.

trying to compile 2.6 kernel

2003-07-28 Thread Keith Antoine
I am stopped at the first base. When I type in gconfig it says that :
* Unable to find the GTK+ installation. Please make sure that
* the GTK+ 2.0 development package is correctly installed...
* You need gtk+-2.0, glib-2.0 and libglade-2.0.

I have installed from a tarball glib-2.2.2, when I try to install gtk+-2.2.2
I get:
-
checking for glib-2.0 = 2.1.4 atk = 1.0.1 pango = 1.0.1... Package glib-2.0 
was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `glib-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'glib-2.0' found

configure: error: Library requirements (glib-2.0 = 2.1.4 atk = 1.0.1 pango 
= 1.0.1) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment 
variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find 
them.
-
There does not appear to be an rpm that I can install to mandrake from, which 
is what I need these days as I have no idea how to fix the install as is. 
They have made things real difficult to even start into now. By the same 
token Mandrake is remiss too.

I am just guessing here, but it looks like you are trying to use kernel
oplocks. Maybe your kernel doesn't support them. I am not sure if this
behavior is controlled in the compilation of smbd or in smb.conf.

According to man smb.conf, kernel oplocks are on by default but if the
kernel doesn't support them, it won't cause an error. Why not try:

kernel oplocks = no

in smb.conf.

FWIW, how, exactly, would you go about televising cross-country bike

Hockey... they're easy. Set up the cameras in a building and away you 
go... Even Soccer (Football), whcih *does* have a limited following in 
the States, is easy to televise. Bike racing, well, it's just doesn't 
make logistical sense for mundane, week to week races (are there week to 
week races in cycling?).

The TdF gets its press, and people follow it, but it's just not a sport 
that lends itself to television. Doesn't mean people aren't interested.

At least that's my perspective on it...

I think you are screwed. I had a form to print in a similar way. All the
printing programs ultimately use ghostscript. If ghostscript won't show it,
the system won't print it. And, my experience is that you get no error. It
just goes into the ozone. But, saving to a file in postscript and then
checking it interactively with gv shows the problem.

I had to print from Windows. I also tried saving the postscript from the
windows acroread program and checked if ghostscript would print that. Nope.
So, I came to the conclusion that the problem was not acroread/xpdf, but
ghostscript.

 so i guess what i'm looking for is the command string necessary to get 
 acrobat to send through cups, i.e., what to say on the line where it 
 says /usr/bin/lpr.

Try

cat xx.pdf | acroread -toPostScript | lpr

acroread --help is your friend here. Maybe dome of the postscript options
(-level1, for example) might help ypur file. They did not help mine...

Or have the page contain a 'Mail this page to a friend' button. Same as
having a printer button that resends the page minus lots of junk.

I chased down my /usr/bin/lpr file and found it is pointing to 
/usr/bin/lpr-cups this was on a Mandrake 9.1 box so yours may be 
different

CUPS uses a lpr/lpd emulation to provide the same function as lpr so all 
you need to do is find the lpr-cups binary and not the original..

Perhaps doing a
rpm -qa | grep -i cups 
and then a
rpm -q output of last command --list
to find the correct binary to send it to?

That's if it's a rpm system...

Re: printing pdf files?

2003-07-28 Thread C M Reinehr
I print PDF's from Acrobat Reader all the time with CUPS. There's two ways 
to do it. Since I also use KDE, I just substitute kprinter for the default 
print command string and AR pipes the postscript to kprinter, from which I 
have access to all of the CUPS options, printers, etc.

The other way is to install the CUPS enabled lpr command. In the case of 
Debian Linux the package is cupsys-bsd, which provides the BSD commands 
for interacting with CUPS. Chiefly, it includes 'lpr', 'lpc', 'lpq', 
'lprm' along with some libraries  documentation. With this version of lpr 
installed, your print command would be the usual 'lpr -P printer_name' 
along with any options you prefer.

Cheers!

NFS responding on wrong interface

2003-07-28 Thread Bill Campbell
I'm having a wierd problem at one of our customer's sites.  The system has
multiple IP addresses bound to one NIC, eth0 and eth0:[0-3].  NFS clients
can't mount NFS directories because the UDP replies are coming from
addresses other than eth0.

I've looked at the source for mountd.c, and there's no option to bind to a
specific interface (the man pages don't have one so I went to the source to
make sure that there's not an undocumented option).  The system in question
is running Caldera eDesktop 2.4, but I've looked at the source on SuSE 8.2
Professional and the code is largely the same.

It seems to me that the return packet should show as coming from the
primary interface on that network.  The only thing I see that looks a
little strange is that ``netstat -rn'' shows two routes to the internal
network, both on eth0:

# netstat -rn
Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags   MSS Window  irtt Iface
192.168.254.0   0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0   U 0 0  0 eth0
192.168.254.0   0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0   U 0 0  0 eth0
127.0.0.0   0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0   U 0 0  0 lo
0.0.0.0 192.168.254.8   0.0.0.0 UG0 0  0 eth0

Any ideas?

Restrict logins by time

2003-07-28 Thread Tim Wunder
Is there a way to restrict a user or group so that they can only login 
during a certain time?

Using RHL 8.0. I've tried looking at redhat-config-users, and 
/etc/security/limits.conf, but nothing jumped out at me...

I've got a feeling that it isn't possible :-(

Thanks,

 The system has

 I've looked at the source for mountd.c, and there's no option

 the source to
 make sure that there's not an undocumented option).  The

 on SuSE 8.2

 It seems to me that the return packet should show as coming
 from the
 primary interface on that network.  The only thing I see that
 looks a
 little strange is that ``netstat -rn'' shows two routes to the
 internal
 network, both on eth0:

I know I'm really late with this reply, but if
you are still trouble shooting, I do have a few ideas, 
but you'll probably laugh at me for mentioning them, since
I am still a newbie.


I noticed you've got your multiple ip's in the 192.168.254.X
range for eth0.  Can I ask if maybe the other clients 
moved very recently to differnet network subnets?


The only other things I can think of that you probably already
checked ;


the /etc/export file had been modified with wrong ip
   address or computer names to the proper shared directories,
   and of course, white space;

the mount volumes had been unmounted for fsck maintainence,
  with the clients still on the mount;

maybe someone modified the /etc/hosts.allow file, on either the
  server or the client, without remembering to tell anyone,
  for reasons of security.  A DENY ALL statement maybe
  somewhere?



I'm sorry Bill, but that's all I can really think of.   That's 
all this newbie can think of...

Some info on what you expect to see might help us to help you.  Right now, 
i can only assume that you expect some kind of interface other than lo to

what kind of card do you have?  Did the appropriate modules load?  Are

Re: pcmcia on Suse 8.0

2003-07-28 Thread Rick Sivernell
Lonnie

   Pardon my senior moment. Yes, like I said cardctl has found my pcmcia card and
all that seems to work, when I remove the pcmcia car the line led go down and
when I replug it in the lights on the dongle light up as they did before. Now on
system boot, it tells everything is ok and the final config will be started on
hotplug, dialup. I just performed a dmesg, I think Ie found it, I did see this
when I did the lmod, but it looked proper as yenta-socket was there, seems
axnet_cs is being used instead of pcnet_cs. I just modprobed pcnet_cs and it did
not return a error, and lsmod and the pcnet_cs  axnet_cs were there. I think
when I find where the axnet_cs is load, hope it not in the kernel, I may have a
fix.  Correct me if I am wrong, but is it ifconfig eth(0)or(-pcmcia) inet
19x.x.x.x etc used to setup a net. My network has been running a while. the
laptop had a caldera system working perfectly, untill I loaded Suse. I can use to
/etc/init.d/pcmcia start/stop and that returns no errors. I in search of the
axnet_cs loading right now. Many thanks

cheers

try a safe mode boot (typically the second item on the grub menu). it

OT Can't believe it but its true: Visual basic can't sort

2003-07-28 Thread Joel Hammer
I have to learn visual basic since I need to program VBA in powerpoint at
work.
VBA seems like a polished product with lotsa objects to control
applications. Very nice. Not too hard once you learn how to navigate
the object browser and the numerous objects in powerpoint.  Imagine my
shock when I wanted to sort an array.

 THERE IS NO BUILT IN SORT FUNCTION IN VISUAL BASIC.

The last time I recall having to write a sort routine I was programming
in Z80 assembly language on my TRS-80. Geeezz. The odd thing is, not my
visual basic book or online help bats an eye over this. They just give
various shell, heap, and bubble short routines and act like nothing is
wrong with this picture.  MS$ is really amazing.

I find this incredible.

Well, back to work. I guess I'll use a bubble sort. I won't be sorting
more than 50 items at a time.

I think the pcmcia modules are defined somewhere like

 FWIW, how, exactly, would you go about televising cross-country bike

You can't have watched it.  You televise (sp?) it with commentators who
know the sport and the athletes, who have been there themselves.  Use
cameras in helicopters, on motorcycles, in cars and on the ground.  Show
scenes before and after the day's racing when the athletes warm up and
cool down.  Interview team managers and the athletes themselves.

The coverage we see in North America is minimal (at least on local cable
tv), but still the viewer sees the highlights of each days racing, up
close enough to see the expressions on the racers faces.

I've seen nothing in sport more gripping and inspiring that to watch one
of the best in the Tour demoralize his opponents with an attack in the
mountains, the sort of attack that Armstrong has used so well these past
five tours.  I tape them when I can.

Of course I love riding in the mountains myself so perhaps I find it
more interesting than some, as is likely the case with this thread.

  I have found that the system is using axnet_ca it should be pcnet_cs. Can not
  find where to change it at. Found it on the last line of dmesg. boot fine and
  acts as if pcmcia is ready, dongle has all lights bright, cardctl says it is good
  and it finds the proper card Linksys pcmpc 100. just no ifconfig for pcmcia.
 
 
 I think the pcmcia modules are defined somewhere like 
 /etc/pcmcia/pcmcia.opts.  grep through /etc/pcmcia, assuming that SuSE puts 
 their pcmcia stuff in there.


Try /etc/pcmcia/config or /etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng.conf
Find your card and see what SuSE has bound it to.  If SuSE shows it as
bind axnet_cs then change it to read bind pcnet_cs

Hope this helps.
