Moving to London OT

2003-10-28 Thread Federico Voges
Hi,

Just wanted to let you know that I've accepted a job in London (UNIX
Admin). This is a big change (and challenge) for me (I'm from
Argentina).
Luckily I have a friend (he's the one who recommended me for the job)
and my sister living there.

I'm leaving to London this saturday (yup, not much time but they have
someone by monday) :)

BTW: my SxS mirror will continue on-line as I'm keeping the server
here.

PS: Anyone in the London area?
PS2: I can't believe the ammount of trash I've collected over the last
7 years (I've cleaned up my computer related inventory) :-D

Thanks!

I'm attaching a lilo.conf (that's for lilo 22.5.1) along with some info
about disks layout. That's from the latest installed server (Intel
SCB2) tunning Gentoo. Previously, the same server was running COL 3.1.1
Server with pretty much the same config. I had to change lilo.conf due
to some changes in the way LILO handles RAID1 boot.

Can Lilo boot a software RAID Root?

Yes, LILO can do that. GRUB now has limited support for raid but it
sucks 

I don't believe any of them can.

This is a HW RAID, provided by a HighPoint RocketRAID card.

Sorry, but AFAIK the only hardware raid ide controllers are the ones
made by 3ware. 

I have several controllers (Promise and HPT) and none are real hardware
raid. And the drivers suck, ie: one disk fail, the server is out. No
fault tolerance at all :)

I've tried the ataraid driver and soft raid. With softraid, I'd been
able to remove an HD while the server was on (don't try this at home,
kids! You may damage you hardware! ;)) and the server continued working
without a hicup. Try that with ataraid and you'll get an insta-panic :)

Again, my suggestion is soft RAID1 + LILO. I have 3 servers using this
setup without problems.

Bye!

Thanks.

Anyone here running a Quake 3 Arena server?

I'm in the process of putting a Linux Quake server together for a local retail

Basically this is a LAN setup, no internet connections for the short term. The 
one area that I haven't fully ironed out is... Can a Quake client run locally 
on the Quake server machine? I was asked to set it up that way, but it 
appears that you can't run a client on the same machine running the server 
under linux. However, under windows it's not a problem. 

It's slightly embarassing.

Anyway, if anyone has some insight on this, I'd appreciate it.

Thank you in advance.

If it can be done with winodws, you should be able to do it with linux.
Just get the instructions for windows and try to translate them to
Linux ;)

I have a couple of Enemy Territory servers (almost the same game

According to a friend (he's game's freak), ATI is the way to go right

buy a nVidia GF4.

Besides my friend's recommendation, I have an Asus 9820 (GF4 Ti4200

If your MTA is qmail, then use Courier IMAP (I'm using qmail + Couriel

If your MTA is anything else, use Cyrus IMAP. Although it's somewhat
more complicated to setup compared to Courier, it has several
advantages: 
builtin support for newsgroups, 
server side mail filtering with remote admin (sieve), 
many auth methods (SQL, LDAP, PAM, sasldb2, etc)
really scalable (it even has builtin support for partitioned servers
using an agregator)
stand alone server (works somewhat similar to postfix)
no need to system accound for each mail user

I'm using it on some servers. AFAIK most comercial products based on
OSS also use Cyrus (ie Bynari Insight server, SCOoffice Mail Server and
I think SuSE OpenExchange).

Hi,

You have LinuxCAD (www.linuxcad.com). The web site claims it's (at
least somewhate) compatible with AutoCAD.

Disclaimer: I haven't touch a CAD program in about 13 years. I'm
absolutely *not* updated on this subject :)

Ah, well, I can see that being a problem.  I suppose AutoCAD is
the big dog in the CAD market.

  There have been some posts over the years looking for CAD programs
  for Linux. Here's a free 2D CAD program that appears, to my untrained

I just purchased the GF4Ti4200 with my new machine (which I'm most pleased with)

I'd like some input on tricks to get this sucker working the best.  I knew it had 
video out.  Video In was a bonus I didn't expect (if only it works).

Video Out shows up my boot to the TV...  But as soon as X starts, the TV becomes an 
Orange mess of lines.  I've tried changing modes (CTRL-ALT-+) but all that I see is 
some rearranging of what little black is left on the TV.  This is inconvenient.  
Obviously it'd make me the happiest if this would be viewable even when I'm at 
1280x1024 (I like to live there most the time) but I'd settle for 640x480.  (Note:  
SuSE includes this great little tool which lets you set your resolution on the fly... 
very nice indeed)  I also wouldn't complain if the TV could be set up as an extension 
of my desktop, not a clone.  I've seen the nvtv utility and plays just a little.  No 
luck other than killing the feed to my CRT.
Yes, I'm using GLX and the NVidia accelerated driver.  DRI is another question I'm 
not sure of.

Just read de README for the nvidia GLX driver. You should have it
somewhere in your disk (something like /usr/share/doc/NVIDIA_GLX-1.0/),
or you can download the tar.gz from nVidia's site (ie:
NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-4363.tar.gz). You'll find all the info you need there. 

The chipset supports TV out up to 1024x768.

Video In I haven't tried much with yet.  All I know is that SuSE didn't detect it so 
it's probably not one of the BTTV chipset.  The manual calls is WDM or something or 
other.  Anyone have any luck with this one?   I remember reading recently on this 
list that someone said they'd stick with NVidia for all of their video capture needs. 
 I'd love to as well, since my other option is to migrate my ATI TVWonder VE card 
(Walmart: $45) from my old machine to this one.  Not elegant, but doable, and it's a 
BTTV chipset.


My vid card doesn't have TV-in, but a quick search in Gentoo Forums
revealed that you need RivaTV (http://rivatv.sourceforge.net):

 They have been thinking of a Linux port for awhile and they have the
 above survey to find out how people use linux and whether they would use
 such a backup program.

 Worth the minute it would take for the survey.

OK, i filled it out, although its a very poorly designed survey.  Most of

Yup, I hope they didn't pay a consultant to design the survey ;)

 It seems that most prominent open software gurus share one common

 good chuckle, go here to read about the latest squabble between Dan
 Robbins and one of his developers who is leaving the fold.
 
 http://www.zynot.org/info/fork.html

I'm not sure I'd call it a chuckle.  Other developers of Gentoo have left
with the same complaints, and Dan's defense sounds distinctly like Baghdad
Bob.  Unfortunately, Gentoo and Gentoo users will pay whatever penalties
there are for this little fracas.  OTOH, we may get a better system out of
it.  Deciding which one it is will be difficult, however.


Although, as you say, this seems to be a clash of egos. It raises
some concerns about the comercial side of Gentoo. I'd like that Mr.
Robbins make some changes and do like the Gnome Project/Ximian Inc:
separate completely Gentoo the distro from the comercial side and make
the decision process more open (like in no secrets, no like in
everybody can vote. ie: no secret mailing list, just read only).

That'll avoid the problems like the ones with Z. Welch.

Just my $0.02 :)

Hi,

On Tue, 24 Jun 2003 10:28:03 -0400, Matthew Carpenter wrote:

First off, please describe your testing in depth.  FreeS/WAN gateways do not
use the tunnel by default so pinging through the tunnel from one of the
gateways won't work.  If you wish to test the tunnel you need to ping through
the tunnel using appropriately addressed hosts on either side of the gateways.


Searching the freeswan site again, I found that piece of info. BTW it
should be mentioned in the quick start page and in the configuration
page of the documentation ;)

After doing some ugly scripting to deal with my sub-optimal setup
(dynamic IP on both ends), the VPN is now working.

Let me describe the situation:

192.168.10.0/24 192.168.10.1 - dyn. IP
BUE-NET - BUE-GW (postgres server) [ADSL modem] -+
 |
   INET
192.168.11.0/24 192.168.11.1 - dyn. IP   |
NQN-NET - NQN-GW [ADSL modem] ---+

I have 3 tunnels: net-net and net-gw (one for each end so ping works as
expected).

The hack I'm using right know is this:

* Every morning (about 6:00am) I force NET-GW to reconnect (adsl-stop,
wait, adsl-start)
* ip-up.local (both ends) has some really ugly stuff(tm) in it:

#!/bin/bash

# Test connection status. Thanks Telefonica for a great service (not!)
# Sometimes we connect but we don't get a default gateway
route -n|grep -q ^0\.0\.0\.0
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then 
  echo No default route. Dropping connection...
  killall -HUP pppd
  exit 1
fi

# Test connection status. Thanks Telefonica for a great service (not!)
# Sometimes we get a connection to a black hole.
ping -c 5 -w 5 200.69.192.31  /dev/null
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then 
  echo Can't ping to a known internet host. Dropping connection...
  killall -HUP pppd
  exit 1
fi

# Stop FreeS/WAN
/usr/sbin/rcipsec stop  /dev/null
sleep 3
# make sure ipsec is dead otherwise it won't start again
/usr/bin/killall pluto  /dev/null
rm /var/run/pluto.pid  /dev/null
rmmod -r ipsec  /dev/null

# Update DDNS
echo Updating DDNS...
/usr/bin/lynx -dump SOME-SECRET-URL-:) 
if [ $? != 0 ]; then
   # Danger! This could cause an endless loop ;)
   echo Ooops! Couldn't update DDNS! Dropping connection...
   /usr/bin/killall -HUP pppd
   exit 1
fi

# The TTL for the dynamic DNS A record is 6secs, let's wait 7secs
sleep 7

# Let's restart IP Sec on the other GW (so it uses the new IP address)
ssh OTHER-GW /usr/local/sbin/ipsec_hack.sh

# We restart IP Sec in our side
/usr/sbin/rcipsec start
- ---EOF---

/usr/local/sbin/ipsec_hack.sh
#!/bin/bash

/bin/logger -i -t ipsec_hack Start
/bin/logger -i -t ipsec_hack Stopping ipsec
/etc/init.d/ipsec stop  /dev/null
/bin/sleep 3
/sbin/rmmod -r ipsec  /dev/null
/bin/rm /var/run/pluto.pid  /dev/null
/bin/sleep 3
/bin/logger -i -t ipsec_hack Sarting ipsec
/etc/init.d/ipsec start  /dev/null
- ---EOF---

The trick is restarting FreeS/WAN on the other side after updating the
dynamic DNS but before restarting FreeS/WAN on this side. If IP Sec is
running on this side all traffic to the other gw will go thorugh the
NET-GW tunnel which is down.

I know, it's a mess. But it's working ;)

Thinking agin, I've realized that I'll probably need just one tunnel.

BUE-GW is the router/firewall and is running the PostgreSQL server. The
desktops on both LANs (BUE-NET  NQN-NET) run the ERP software that
connects to BUE-GW.

So, I think I'd only need a net-gw tunnel from NQN-NET to BUE-GW. 

As I said, both ends have dynamic IP (ADSL). I hope to switch to static
IP (still using ADSL) as soon as the telco start offering the service.
That will be just on BUE-GW (different telcos on each end and only one
plans to offer static IP).

I have no other choice for the inet conection (except a leased line
that are waaay too expensive here).

Is my current setup too ugly?? Do you have any sugestion to improve
it??

Once I get a static IP, what changes would I have to make? 

TIA!

Secondly, if you are interested in a fairly decent Web-GUI for FreeS/WAN,
there is a pretty good WebMin module available.  Install WebMIN if you haven't
already (www.webmin.com) and then install the FreeS/WAN module. 
 

I have it installed, it comes with SCO Linux 4.0 (yup, first and only
license sold in Argentina). But it's incomplete (ie: no tunnel status
page), and it's not being developed (last version si about 2 years
old).

manually, but i could be wrong.  What i'm not able to figure out is do i 
need to do anything further for acpi to work its magic (prevent the 
laptop from overheating, monitor battery usage etc)?Anyone have a 
clue to throw me?


AFAIK all the magic is done by acpid. It checks the ACPI event
interface in /proc (IIRC /proc/acpi/event) and according to that event
it calls the specified script (see /etc/acpi/events) with a couple of
cmd line parameters.

I can't help you with you with the thermal, battery, etc features
'cause I've only used it to make the power button do a shutdown on a
couple of desktops.

BTW: you can disable the power button on an ATX case by loading the
button ACPI module and not running acpid (or set it up to ignore it) :)

IPSec (FreeS/WAN) anyone??

2003-06-16 Thread Federico Voges
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

I'm trying to setup a VPN between 2 Linux servers using FreeS/WAN
(network to network).

Right now, everything seems to ok (pluto says the tunnel is up, routes
looks ok, etc) except that not a single packet makes it through the
tunnel (ie. no ping).

First suspect was the firewall script (shorewall with all the settings
for ipsec), so I just dropped all rules on both severs and changed all
policies to ACCEPT (also checked for /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward =
1).

Here's my ipsec.conf (keys truncated for easy reading):
 START 
config setup
interfaces=%defaultroute
klipsdebug=none
plutodebug=all
plutoload=%search
plutostart=%search

# defaults for subsequent connection descriptions
conn %default
keyingtries=0
disablearrivalcheck=no
authby=rsasig


conn bue-nqn
left=hoerbiger.ipdinamica.com   # Local vitals
leftsubnet=192.168.10.0/24  #
[EMAIL PROTECTED]#
leftrsasigkey=0sAQNMdaf0YJ00...

rightrsasigkey=0sAQN2C0tZXXY...
rightnexthop=%defaultroute  # correct in many situations
auto=start  # authorizes but doesn't start
this
# connection at startup

 END 

Notes, both ens are connected to internet with ADSL using dynamic IP,
that's why I used hostnames instead of IPs. That shouldn't be a problem
(at least until one of the ends gets a new IP).

I have the logs from both servers as well as some info from route,
ipsec, etc. If you can help, just tell me what you need and I'll send
it.

TIA!

Have you tried winex?? From the project page in SF.net
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/winex):

TransGaming is developing improvements to the Wine project to achieve
full Linux compatibility for games developed using the Microsoft®
DirectX® APIs.

That's what gamers are using to run windoze games on linux. Theres a
commercial version but you can checkout the source code from CVS and
use it freely.

On the XFS resize issue 
My guess is that you'll have to use something like Linux BBC
(www.lnx-bbc.org) or the lastest Gentoo install CD (both have network
and XFS support and all the tools you'll need) to: 
* make a network backup (using tar/cpio/dump/whatever-you-like), 
* modify your partition table, 
* format your new XFS partition(s),
* restore the backup, 
* chroot to your installed linux and reinstall the bootloader,
* unmount  reboot

Just my $0.02.

Anyone know if Win2k has any ridiculous need to be on hda1, or will it be

I had some problems with Win2K. I bought a new system a few weeks ago
and I wanted to move my gentoo installation from my old PC and install
Win2k.

The hd is a 80gb (Western Digital), so I partitioned like this:
30GB Linux (XFS(
2GB swap
30GB Win2k (NTFS)
Rest of the disk: Scratch partition (currently: another gentoo
instalation - XFS) (extended partition)

The partitions where phisically ordered that way. 
Win2k didn't like it. I wouldn't boot after the first reboot during
install.

I ended up using the first 30GB partition for win2k and the second one
for Linux. No problem at all.

So, try to place your win2k partition near the start of the disk.

BTW, to move my installed linux to the new system I used the method I
described in my previous email (gentoo boot CD), but instead of using
the LAN, I installed both disks on the same system. 

Just another $0.02 ;)

crap.  which bootloader were you using for win2k?  I'm wondering if win2k
is effected by the 1024 cylinder problem?  i really didn't want to have to
start reordering partitions in addition to reloading Linux.


At that stage, the windows loader (remember that I coulnd even install
it). After I got everything running I installed GRUB on the MBR and
added Win2k to the boot menu (chainload +1, etc, etc).

And yes, my guess is that Win2k has some problems booting from beyond
cyl 1024...

Hi,

I'm setting up an Asus A7N8X Deluxe with a V9280/TD (GF4 Ti4200 128MB

Problems so far: X freezing on startup. Solution pass acpi=off to the

 What I think should be happening is... net-eth0 should run before pcmcia

 So, how does one re-arrange the shutdown scripts in gentoo?

The scripts are in /etc/runlevels. There are directories called 'default',
'nonetwork' and the like. The concept is identical to the /etc/rc.d (SVR4)
stuff. Just the names are changed. Oddly, the names of the scripts are not
prefixed with a number. And, the scripts contain bash functions like
'start', which get called in the appropriate context, instead of the case
statement in the/etc/rc.d system. They get run by /sbin/runscripts.sh. Maybe
there is a clue to how ordering is done there. Surely is it not strictly
alphabetic. But I don't know.



Gentoo init script use dependencies to find the order in which they
should be executed:

Hi,

All I have is one of those developerWorks CDs. And it has DB2 v7, not
v8.

Just found this on IB
web:

http://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/download/product.jsp?s=cid=TDUN-49
EVGUsb=rcat=datafam=rs=S_TACT=S_CMP=q=Enter+search+textk=anypf=
Linuxx=14y=12dt=v=

- From there, you can download v8.1 (registration required). From the
size of the downloads, the should include the docs.

Otherwise, I have installed the docs in my home server:
http://www.shadowsun.com.ar/~fvoges/db2/doc/en/

Send me a private mail when you're done so I can remove those files ;)

Those are v7.2 docs, but should still apply for v8.x.

Well it seems the promised Linux version of PMMAil is pretty much a
piece of Vaporware so I'm looking to transfer some of my old PMMail

I though that I was the only one using PMMail ;)

PMMail uses directories and a somewhat strange
way of tagging msg's as individual files.  I understand that Sylpheed
is similar but the files are numbered in order.  Is there a simple way
in BASH to rename the files in a directory with numbers in ascending
order?  


Maybe this helps:

-  cut 
#!/bin/bash

SRC=[put PMMail messages dir pathname here]
DST=[put destination dir here]
C=0
# PMMail uses 1 file per message (named [something].msg)
for f in $SRC/*.[mM][sS][gG]
do
  cp $f $DST/$0
  C=$[ $C + 1 ]
done
-  cut 

It's very simple, but should do the work ;)

Note: I haven't tried this script. Use at your own risk :)

BTW: I've looked at the format used by folder.ini and you can get the
folder name. 

cat folder.ini |awk 'BEGIN {FS=\xde} {print $1}'

You should be able to do some kind of recursive script to convert your
whole folder tree from PMMail to Sylpheed. I don't use Sylpheed, so I
don't know how it stores the mails/folders.

The idea is to block the login servers. I have this from the LARTC

This one Blocks AOL IM and ICQ

iptables -A FORWARD --dport 5190 -j REJECT
iptables -A FORWARD -d login.oscar.aol.com -j REJECT

Note that the auto config of ICQ (Main - Preferences - Connections -
Server - Auto Configure) sometimes uses other port numbers besides the
default (5190). Don't know if those rules efectivelly disables the auto
config feature or not.

You can also limit what files they download by extension if you wish.

To block access after 6:00 pm you use a cron job to shut down squid/dansguardian.

As Fredrico said, iptables can be use to block the ports that these messengers use, 
but they can still use port 80. 

I don't know how to block by application so I just blocked the domains that these 
servers are on. For example I have blocked hotmail and msn messenger, but not msn.com

(If anyone reading this knows how to block port 80 for msn messenger and not your

Hi,

You can do that on linux too, but only with local apps (note: the same
limitation applies to windows). Once on the wire, there's no way to
know which application generated the packet*. 

* Well, that's not entirely correct, you can infer the originating app
from the packet headers/contents but that is very CPU intensive.

Since when is a P4 the same as IA64??

Isn't it? I've seen the progression of the hardware over the

586-686-P3  = 32 bit OS platforms/ 64 bit architecture
P4- P5 - P6 = 64 bit OS platforms/ 128 bit architecture

http://cedar.intel.com/software/idap/media/pdf/LinuxQSG_Rev1.pdf

I was under this impression that since 1999 when Intel 
released information for the Itanium/Pentium 4 for the 
purposes of linux community to build a P4 functioning kernel
and start application building. 

Wasn't it REDHAT introducing of a IA-64 coded OS that 
worked on Pentium 4's before MS could produce for Windows 
2000 OS for the same machines big news years ago?

And as I understand it, going from 32 bits to 64 bits 
creates problems, and a OS developer has to start 
from the ground all over again?

Software like GCC, GLIBC, have problems especially 
with 'int' 'long' and  'pointers', just to start with.

I was under the impression problems were caused when 
compiled applications will crash by recieving unexpected
negative values when a value is greater and outside the 
range of smaller bit 'holder'.

Not all applications would crash and bomb, but I thought
it was a good idea to use 64 bit OS on a Pentium 4 or better,
which had 128 bit architecture to begin with.

Wasn't there was a big push from Linux OS developers to 
have clients with a minimum OS platform of a Pentium 
instead of a 486 with Kernel 2.2.13 and the
move to Glibc 2.1.3 along those very same lines?

I think I remember grumbling from even this list
when its members frequented the Caldera mail list there
about eDesktop and it's minimum requirements a few years back.

We've moved away from the i386/i486, which had 16 bit 
OS and applications, Linus and the other developers
people went to the Pentium which could handle the 32 bit
platform.

The linux/GNU community has dropped and moved away for some
time supporting GCC 2.91, GlibC 2.1.X, and the machines 
that they used could compile could that was understood by 
the Pentium 1-2-3's.  But still all these machines are
all 32 bit OS running on them ( 64 architecture).

P4 is big monster, with 128 bit architecture.  The 64 bit OS
is now required to drive it.  A new, higher bit architecture
always requires a higher bit OS to drive it.

IA-64 OS should be able to run on a half decently built and 
quick 2.0GHz or better Pent 4 machine, single CPU or no.

This year we should see a new minimal equipment requirement,
a Pentium 4 as a minimum machine, with 256MB ram, when Linus
starts introduction of Kernel 2.6.  ( say around 2.6.10 or so ).


Anyway, this is way, way, way off topic.



I am still under the opinion that M.C. simply has a CDROM 
he burned that simply didn't burn quite right.

Re: Two Identical PCI NICs, how to choose which is eth0 and which iseth1

2003-01-27 Thread Federico Voges

Hi,

In my experience, the NIC that is closer to the keyboard connector is
eth0. I don't know if that's a standard or just plain luck :)

Hardware 3com NICs (3c90x) and various motherboards (Soyo, PC Chips,
and no-brand-made-somewhere-in-asia).

Bye!

SSH tunneling tip

2003-01-22 Thread Federico Voges
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

I got this tip from the Linux Journal Weekly Newsletter (Janua
22)

- 

  Tech Tip

   If you'd like to do SSH port forwarding with a passphrase, but
require
   a passphrase to run commands, make a separate key for port
forwarding
   only.

   Dramatis personae

   dmarti: example user name
   bilbo: your desktop system
   frodo: host running sshd
   linuxjournal.com: some web site

   Port forwarding also is called tunneling, so I'll call the key
   tunnel. cd to your .ssh directory and create the key:

dmarti@bilbo:~/.ssh$ ssh-keygen -t dsa -f tunnel
Generating public/private dsa key pair.
Enter passphrase (empty for no passphrase):
Enter same passphrase again:
Your identification has been saved in tunnel.
Your public key has been saved in tunnel.pub.
The key fingerprint is:
77:b4:02:d9:32:c2:cc:18:58:c3:23:0a:13:46:a7:fa dmarti@capsicum

   Now edit tunnel.pub and add the following options to the beginning
of
   the line:

command=/bin/false,no-X11-forwarding,no-agent-forwarding,no-pty

   That means this key is no longer any good for anything but port
   forwarding, because the only command it will run is /bin/false, and
it
   won't forward X or agent commands.

   sshd understands the options only when reading the key from
   authorized_keys, but if you put the options into the original .pub
   file, they'll stay with the key wherever it goes.

   Now copy tunnel.pub to the end of your .ssh/authorized_keys at all
the
   hosts to which you want to tunnel, and try it:

dmarti@bilbo:~$ ssh -i ~/.ssh/tunnel frodo
Connection to zork.net closed.

   No errors, nothing runs; that's what you want. If you get errors,
you
   may have mangled the authorized_keys file on the server end; if you
   get a shell you need to check and fix the options.

   Another possibility is that if you're running with ssh-agent and
have
   the SSH_AUTH_SOCK environment variable set, you could be using a key
   provided by ssh-agent instead of the one on the command line. Put
env
   -u in front of the command line to be sure not to use the agent.

   Tunnel time! Let's use the long-suffering linuxjournal.com web
server
   as a guinea pig and make a tunnel:

dmarti@bilbo:~$ ssh -i ~/.ssh/tunnel -N -L 8000:linuxjournal.com:80 \
frodo

   To review that command line:

 * -i ~/.ssh/tunnel to use our tunnel-only ssh key
 * -N to not run a command (this is necessary, otherwise SSH will
run
   only /bin/false and exit)
 * -L 8000:linuxjournal.com:80 to forward local port 8000 to port
80
   on linuxjournal.com.
 * And finally, the hostname to which we're making the
connection--it
   doesn't have to be the same as the host to which we're
tunneling.
- 


Enjoy!

Hi,

Some distros have /etc/cron.d and inside that dir Hourly, Daily, etc. 

Are there any symlinks inside your cron.d (to cron.*). If so, it can be
there for compatibility.

Also, it can be a left over from some package you installed.

I guess that you need a valid shell so rsync can exec rsync on the
remote host.

There's a project called rssh (http://freshmeat.net/projects/rssh/).
It's no exactly what you need but comes very close.

Basically, it's a shell that restricts just to remote exec of scp
and/or sftp (no interactive shell). 

It shouldn't be to hard to add rsync to the list of allowed commands.
You'll have to do some research on how rsync over ssh works, though.

Just had one problem related to ACPI: if I connected one disk to the
Promise controller, then the system would freeze during kernel bootup
(after detecting the hard disks). Work aroud: pass acpi=off to the
kernel.

Besides that is basically a SuSE distro with some addons.

Remember that options apply for the specified directory and all below,

Yes. I had originally listed the DirectoryIndex without reference to a particular 
Directory *, but subsequently added DirectoryIndex webcal.cgi inside the 
Directory /home/httpd//cgi-bin/webcal...Directory section. Still no go.

 Remember that options apply for the specified directory and all
 below, and maybe your cgi-bin somewhere else and not included in your

cgi-bin works. When I specify the webcal.cgi file with the URL, the calendar works as 
expected.

 Besides that, are you sure that DirectoryIndex applies to cgi 
 directories??
 

This I'm not sure about. I *am* sure that the settings for DirectoryIndex and the 
cgi-bin directories are what was working with Apache 1.3x and won't work with Apache 
2.0.x. 

snip

Another one, have you tried renaming/symlinking webcal.cgi to
index.cgi??

Not a solution, but hopefully a workaround.

The pam_mount module allows users to have NCP (Netware), SMB

using the same passwords they typed to log in. A remote volume can even
be used as a user's $HOME. Volumes mounted this way are automatically

Re: power-off button and /etc/inittab

Hi,

What you're talking about (as Aaron points out) is supported by ACPI
and any mothern motherboard using an ATX power suply.

In fact, it works with OpenLinux 3.1.1. You just need to load a few
kernel modules:
ospm_system
ospm_button

Note: ACPI is under heavy development, so it's very buggy and
incomplete (at least the code in 2.4.x series). I may work or not,
you'll have to try. 
I have varied experiences with it (some motherboards worked and one
just ignored it).

If you really want ACPI support, I recommend you apply the latest ACPI
patches from http://acpi.sourceforge.net/

Bye

This is true, all modern power switches on standard PC's are
soft-switches.  The machine generally does the right thing, but
sometimes you still have to unplug it.  That's why higher-quality ATX
power supplies often have hardware switches on the back.  You'll have to
look into the current status of APMD (or perhaps ACPID) in order to see
if they've worked out how to do this yet.  They've been working on it,
but I haven't got any confirmation that it's actually working yet.  I
haven't looked in awhile, though.

 On ATX and a lot of proprietary architectures, hitting the power button 
 sends a software command--but it is sent directly to the BIOS, not the

 see if any would be of use.  As Dennis said, all too often the 
 software-controlled power-off button becomes non-functional if the 
 operating system packs it in, so there might be some easy hack to power 
 management.
 
 One easy way around this would be to use a UPS and the associated shutdown 
 software.  Yank power to the UPS and it tells the computer to do a proper 
 shutdown, while providing the power to do so.

 If you can find a way to integrate the power switch into the operating 
 system it would work, however you're asking it to essentially do a 
 graceful shutdown *after* pulling the power cord from it. Kinda like 
 sending out an email to let everyone know the mail server is down. After 
 the fact is too late.

Hi,

If you follow the thread, you'll find one post form me with some info.

Any recent 2.4 kernel should detect the controller as a standard IDE.

Besides that, IIRC the only raid mode supported by the kernel for
HPT370 is RAID 0 (stripping). And it's only recommended if you need to
share the array with Windows.

Another thing you may find usefull is APC Cache (an open source Zend

Finally, I'm using Smarty (smarty.php.net), is a template system that

You might take a look at qmail.  Its been rock solid here for several
months now.
 
 
 My MTA is exim. www.exim.org
 
 I think is also comes down to what the e-mail MTA should / should not do.
 
 Spam filtering? Aggressive relay control? Mailing lists? IMAP? Virus
 detection?
 
 Some MTAs are better/easier to set up with these things than others.

Hi all,

If I understand the original question correctly, the question is to 
replace GroupWise which is somewhat similar to M$ Exchange, as opposed 
to just an MTA. It has the mail, calendar, scheduler and other [perhaps 
useless] fluff. You might look at:

http://www.samsungcontact.com/en/

which was HP OpenMail in a former life. There is another similar product 
available from:

http://www.bynari.com

which claims to to this sort of thing as well. Neither of these, 
unfortunately, are OSS, and are rather expensive. They do run on Linux 
though.


On the comercial side, you also have SuSE Mail server (not the one that
uses Lotus Notes), and Caldera...oops! SCO Volution Msg Server. They
are very similar to Bynari product. IIRC, the last time I checked SCO
VMS was the cheapest and has a few goodies like OutLook auto
configuration (great for admins).

If you want to go the open source way, you can use Postfix + Courier
IMAP + OpenLDAP + Horde/IMP/Turba (that's pretty much what everybody
else is using to build their mail server software). There's even a
small article in horde.org describing howto build a large hotmail like
system using these (good reading even not exactly what you need).

For the shared calendar, I think you can use Apache+WebDAV. But I
haven't investigated...

Does someone want me to research this a bit more and write a step by

that I'm sure vesafb goes that high)?

Bob Raymond


- From Documentation/fb/vesafb.txt (in the kernel src dir):

How to use it?
==

Switching modes is done using the vga=... boot parameter.  Read
Documentation/svga.txt for details.

You should compile in both vgacon (for text mode) and vesafb (for
graphics mode). Which of them takes over the console depends on
whenever the specified mode is text or graphics.

The graphic modes are NOT in the list which you get if you boot with
vga=ask and hit return. The mode you wish to use is derived from the
VESA mode number. Here are those VESA mode numbers:

| 640x480  800x600  1024x768 1280x1024
- +-
256 |  0x1010x1030x1050x107   
32k |  0x1100x1130x1160x119   
64k |  0x1110x1140x1170x11A   
16M |  0x1120x1150x1180x11B   

The video mode number of the Linux kernel is the VESA mode number plus
0x200.
 
 Linux_kernel_mode_number = VESA_mode_number + 0x200

So the table for the Kernel mode numbers are:

To enable one of those modes you have to specify vga=ask in the
lilo.conf file and rerun LILO. Then you can type in the desired
mode at the vga=ask prompt. For example if you like to use 
1024x768x256 colors you have to say 305 at this prompt.

If this does not work, this might be because your BIOS does not support
linear framebuffers or because it does not support this mode at all.
Even if your board does, it might be the BIOS which does not.  VESA
BIOS
Extensions v2.0 are required, 1.2 is NOT sufficient.  You will get a
bad mode number message if something goes wrong.

1. Note: LILO cannot handle hex, for booting directly with 
 vga=mode-number you have to transform the numbers to
decimal.
2. Note: Some newer versions of LILO appear to work with those hex
values,
 if you set the 0x in front of the numbers.


Just convert those hex numbers to decimal and you'll find where that
792/794 came from ;)

The part about the installation/management being done via YAST may well be
enough to keep me from going with UnitedLinux.  YAST has been the main
reason we haven't done anything serious with SuSE.  I don't like the idea
of the monolithic configuration that makes it difficult for the
knowledgeable admin to make changes without fear of having them undone the
next time somebody runs YAST.


Besides that, I really like Lizard because you can start the install,
set all the configuration options and leave the installation running.
When you came back, you have the system installed. You don't have to
stay arround answering questions every three install steps (and wait
for reboots, etc).

What I'd really like is and unatended install option that is well
documenten and easy to setup. Lizard unatended install is almost
imposible to understand and a pain to setup. 

I must confest that RedHat's kickstart is good (at least is easy to
understand and configure). The big problem is that the gui has about 50
dependencies. The first time I used it I installed it on a minimal
system and ended up with allmost a full install ;)

It bills itself as a high performace kde style engine and it does some

with the Connectiva
linux distribution. I found a source code rpm and just copied the /Crystal

/opt/kde3/share/icons folder.

Once you get all that stuff installed, it'll turn up in the control center
under look-n-feel. Basicly you
go to styles and pick liquid, then to icons and enable Crystal and then
back to the Liquid style manager and
tweak it the way you like it. One other cool icon set is the kde 3.02
included SLICK

All in all, it's pretty cool stuff... it'll passify the boos for while.

Re: Mail error (SOLVED)

2002-07-01 Thread Federico Voges

Hi,

I've fixed it yesterday. Digging through www.sendmail.org I've found
how to disable authentication:

Just added this to /usr/share/sendmail/cf/cf/generic-openlinux.mc
define(`confAUTH_OPTIONS', `A')

And run mta-swith newconfig (the script that rebuilds sendmail.cf in
COL).

The other way was to recompile sendmail without AUTH support (without
libsasl) but that would mean that I'd have to recompile sendmail with
each update. So the m4 option seems to be the best (it should survive
packages updates).

Caldera compiles sendmail with libsasl and auth turned on by default.
The SMPT of Infovia (Telefonica de Argentina ISP), has auth enabled but
it's not needed (in fact I'm sending mail destined to that server) and
COL's sendmail appears to be trying to authenticate itself to Infovia's
SMTP server and fails (with that strange error).

I've found 4 or 5 messages on the web of people with similar errors
(using sendmail 8.11), but no answers.

I'm not an expert on SMTP AUTH, so I don't know if this config swith
break anything. But as I'm not using SMTP AUTH at all, I don't mind. I
can send mails to that server now. :)

I'm not sure why you would be getting AUTH errors unless you had
configured SMTP AUTH on the box.  If you had done that, I would have to
ask why  Unless you are pumping all outbound mail through a provider
which requires SMTP AUTH (like Yahoo.com) then I don't see a whole lot of
use for SMTP AUTH.  If you are attempting to establish email communication
in which one or both parties are identified, I would recommend using SMTP
STARTTLS using CERTS and a CA, which will provide both encryption as well
as positive ID.  If you are working AROUND something, then you'll have to
dig deeper in the SMTP AUTH manual to only use SMTP AUTH for specific
sites, which I have no knowledge about.  Good luck!

My COL 3.1 server acts as a router/gateway and mail server running smtp.  My

My problem is I am using a dial-up account and pppd on the server.  When I
try to do a send/receive on a workstation, it fails if the server is not

server instead of the workstation?  And have the server send it when there
is a connection?


Yes, you can.

If you have a stock sendmail (and sendmail-cf installed), you have to
add this to /usr/share/sendmail/cf/cf/generic-openlinux.mc:

define(`confDELIVERY_MODE', `deferred')

and possibly

FEATURE(accept_unresolvable_domains)

Then exec:

mta-switch newconfig

This will rebuild /etc/mail/sendmail.cf. Restart sendmail and you're
ready.

It's a good idea to exec sendmail -q upon connection (it will process
the mail queue).

PS: backup /etc/mail/sendmail.cf before doing mta-switch newconfig (in
case something fails).

Federico,
Thanks!
Your solution seemed to work.  Except it will time out when the destination
is a domain that is not cached on the mail server.  It seems to want to
resolve the domain before it will accept the outgoing email.  Any ideas on
that?

Thanks again,
Brian

 My problem is I am using a dial-up account and pppd on the
 server.  When I
 try to do a send/receive on a workstation, it fails if the server is not
 connected.  My question: Is there a way to cache the outgoing mail on the
 server instead of the workstation?  And have the server send it
 when there
 is a connection?
 

 Yes, you can.

 If you have a stock sendmail (and sendmail-cf installed), you have to
 add this to /usr/share/sendmail/cf/cf/generic-openlinux.mc:

 define(`confDELIVERY_MODE', `deferred')

 and possibly

 FEATURE(accept_unresolvable_domains)

 Then exec:

 mta-switch newconfig

 This will rebuild /etc/mail/sendmail.cf. Restart sendmail and you're
 ready.

 It's a good idea to exec sendmail -q upon connection (it will process
 the mail queue).

 PS: backup /etc/mail/sendmail.cf before doing mta-switch newconfig (in
 case something fails).

Re: Hardare RAID (0+1) and Linux (Slackware 8.1).

2002-06-21 Thread Federico Voges

Hi,

AFAIK the only REAL hardware RAID for IDE are the 3ware controllers. 

I have one Soyo MoBo with an HPT370 (RAID 0/1/0+1) and an Intel MoBo with a 
Promise FastTrack 100.

I'd sugest that you buy another cheap ATA100/133 controller (ie: CMD649 
chipset) and make a RAID5 array with the disks with software RAID (there are 
instructions in Bedtime Reading - RAID). You'll have a 120GB array. COL 
3.1.1 recognizes both controlles as standard IDE controllers. With RedHat 
71./7.2 don't (at least with the Promise controller).

I've reading about the BIOS RAID (HPT/Promise) support for Linux and it's 
pretty much useless (ei: it's not fault tolerant. If one disk fails, your 
server will crash).

Right now, I have to servers running with soft raid (mirroring) without 
problems (both running COL 3.1.1, one of them using XFS).

 I can create a RAID 0+1 setup in the HighPoint BIOS if, and only if, I
 leave the drives jumpered as 'cable select'. If I try to jumper them
 manually it can only see the two slave drives - incorrectly identified
 as having 70+ GB capacity.

 Slackware has a bootdisk with the correct drivers for the HighPoint
 chipset which boots up fine and then asks for the 'root disk' (which is
 actually a set of 5 floppies labeled install.1, install.2 etc.), then I
 get to select the keyboard and login as root but after that, all I get
 is screenfulls of scrolling hexidecimal (?) numbers.

 Anybody seen this or have any suggestions? I'm all ears...

CHROOT for selected users users

2002-06-04 Thread Federico Voges

Hi,

I'd like to know if there's an easy way to chroot some users to their home dir 
(ala guest class in wu-ftpd).

I'm setting up a webhosting server and I don't want clients-users wandering 
around the filesystem.

Ideally, it should work with Telnet and SSH. But I think I'll only allow users 
to acces via SSH/SCP (no Telnet/FTP). I've been using PuTTY+WinSCP2 on 
windows and they're very user friendly.

TIA

Re: CHROOT for selected users users

2002-06-04 Thread Federico Voges

Hi,

Great, I forgot to mention that users should be able to edit their crontab 
(that's one of the points of allowing shell access, besides being able to 
compile cgi's and doing some file management).

I think this will serve as a good start.

Oh, by the way: Have anyone used the --bind option of mount (kernel 2.4.x)?? 
It kind of works like a hard link for whole directories (there's not much 
documentation about it, just one ).

a Linux guru. I have an idea of how the OS works, but I've never taken

IIRC, that was one of the topics within the first day or two this list

have the hardware, and I can work on it a minimum of 8 hrs. a week, 
probably more. What I don't have time for though, is doing the research 
required. Someone would need to do the searching for info and most 
likely write up the documentation (eventually becoming a new Step).
There would also be a need for people to test the product on platforms 
of all different types. If enough people (in a cast of votes) say yes, 
then I'd say lets start a new list for direct communication between the 
developers, create a central repository for updates, files, and 
documentation, and develop a reasonable means to reach a common ground 
or compromise to any issues such as which version of gcc to use, etc.
I definitely agree it shouldn't be a halfway effort, and we have some 
points to consider and/or include such as Skippy's current efforts. I 
*do* think it's worthy of more discussion and analysis and would like to 
hear more opinions.

Hi,

Yes, I know, but you need innodb and from reading the docs I got the
impression that it's somewhat complicated to use it (I might be wrong).

Besides, I think it is hack. Innodb (again, from mySQL docs) is a DB
system itself. So, you end up running a DB which runs ANOTHER DB.

mySQL was designed to be fast (really fast) but ended being a hack over
another (eg: tansaction support and foreign keys).

If you want a small fast DB mySQL is excelent. But, if you want a full
featured SQL database, use PostgreSQL.

BTW, mySQL (last time I checked didn't support stored procedures, at
least not coded in SQL). Postgres does (another big plus for large
projects).

Hi,

  Linux Journal Weekly News Notes -- May 22nd
 _

  Feature Links of the Week

   Amateur Video Production Using Free Software and Linux:
   http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=5817 -- Mike Petullo
gives
   us this HOWTO for digitizing analog videos for storage and
   manipulation, including tools for editing and ways to publish
digital
   videos.

   802.11 Wireless Networks: The Definitive Guide:
   http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=6089 -- The book claims
to
   be definitive, so Monta Elkins gave it a thorough review. His
   decision? Although it leaves out some key points, this is just the
   book I wished for while thumping my forehead against the wall trying
   to inject the same material directly from the IEEE 802.11 docs.

Re: a crackpot idea i had

2002-05-13 Thread Federico Voges

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-

Hi,

I've tried build 44 and 45 (this is a beta) on my notebook (Compaq
Presario 1200) and it hangs when I insert the network card (3com
X-Jack).

Besides that, it looks very promising as a first distro for an Windoze
ex-user, but not for the power user. 

It's not an improved eDesktop. Remember that it's based on Caldera's
LTP (what later became 3.1), so it's more a 3.1 than a 2.4.

I haven't played too much with it, but overall I liked it.

Bye!

 y'know what the world needs? yet another linux distribution!

And more reporters! ;-)

 anyway, the distributions have gone kind of haywire, off in all kinds 
 of goofy directions. so what i'm wondering is how difficult it would 
 be to put together a modern distribution based on 2.4, with 
 everything simply updated to newer stuff. i've been through a whole 
 collection of other distros, and they all fall short -- rh puts stuff 
 in weird places; suse is just too damned, well, suse; debian is 
 debian and slack is slack; mandrake tends to be rh only broken. and 
 so on. and fact is, the distro i want to be running is caldera 2.4 
 upgraded to the current century.

Joe Cheek's Lycoris (nee Redmond Linux, a near-clone of eDesktop 2.4) 
may come pretty close. I haven't played with it, though.

 suppose a recipe for this could be cooked up?

Yup. I don't have time to do it.

Hi,

Linux Terminal Server Project (http://www.ltsp.org/). A very good way
to recycle all those wasted pentium PCs stored in that room filled
with junk :)

HI,

Depending how PHp was compiled, you might be able to compile just the
mysql support as a module and load it in your scripts or via php.ini.
I allways compile with mysql support builtin because almost everything
I do uses database.

I have a question. On elx linux pregold, I'm receiving an error when I
try to access mysql, unrecognized function mysql_connect()' (close
enough). This call worked on the earlier release of elx. I wonder, is
there a way short of recompiling php to add mysql support? (or is it
me?)
