Re: [newbie-it] RISPOSTE A... Masterizzatore montato in sola lettura !?!?!
* kua79 ha scritto: Già che ci siamo, mi spiegate a cosa serve quel udf?!?! Sul man non ne parla... Allora Davide ho cercato info riguardo a udf, ed è relativo ai CDROM riscrivibili che utilizzano un sistema di scrittura dei dati denominata a pacchetti che come substrato utilizza appunto un file system chiamato UDF. Viene asserito anche che la possibilità di scrittura su un filesystem UDF non è normalmente consentita (considerata pericolosa) mentre la possibilità di lettura è normalmente gestita. Sembrerebbe dunque che manchi questo modulo di supporto UDF al tuo kernel che non trovandolo non ti monta in sola lettura il masterizzatore. Rileggendo le mail precedenti ho letto che miKe aveva accennato a questo fatto e deprecato per l'eventualità che tu invece la usassi, proprio per le ragioni su esposte. Ho guardato il mio fstab e ritrovo questo richiamo a udf anche nella configurazione del mio CDROM che è così impostata: /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom udf,iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0 Nota che udf c'è per default non l'ho inserito io, ho ro anzichè rw avendo solo un lettore. Sembrerebbe che la RH supporti questo sistema udf e che magari abbia risolto sul fatto della pericolosità, infatti nella ricompilazione del kernel normalmente in makemenuconfig sui file systems non c'è la possibilità di inserire il supporto UDF come modulo ne la possibilità di incorporarlo nel kernel, se in RH c'è di default allora evidentemente ha reso questo sistema UDF sicuro e la voce in makemenuconfig suyi file systems abilitata per la scelta anche in fase di scrittura. Ci sarebbe la possibilità di verificare questo leggendo il config del tuo kernel che si trova in /boot, dovresti trovare due righe uguali a queste: CONFIG_UDF_FS=m CONFIG_UDF_RW=y Dai che forse siamo sulla strada giusta, può darsi che sia questo il problema, altrimenti comunque sono sempre cose che non fa male conoscere.

I have a different configuration but, initially, I had a similar problem I think. Since my two boxes were linked to a router which was, in turn, linked to the internet, when my second box was trying to access the web server of the first one, actually it looked liked it was accessing itself (because of the router). I had to create a correspondance in the hosts file (192.168.0.2 my.second.machine) in order to make it working properly. /stefano Bill Winegarden wrote: Hi Everyone, I am setting up a webserver using apache 1.3.8.

RE: [newbie] apache setup and archives
hmmm, well I have the same thing, eth0 for internal, eth1 for external.. I have apache advx working for the most part, although I did suffer with some probs running mod_perl apps, they only work with :8200 in the url, (I use virtual named hosting). other then that, I have half a dozen domains running php on this box. I don't use MCC for much of anything, I have my smb.conf and do everything else by hand, most importantly the network connections. AS for the firewall, I have never used shorewall, i keep meaning to, then I read posts like this one about it and decide to stick with gShield. (with is a simple text config you answer yes or no to each quesiton and it just works.) Sad as it is to me, I'd like to say nice things about msec, as its a fantastic idea in theory.. but even on the servers I set them to normal and tighten things by hand.. every time I try a server setting, I have no end of trouble getting things to work.. The problem as I see it, is that mandrake have alot of really good programmers, but no really good software designers... I also think mandrake should make a bunch of webmin modules for mandrake specific tools.. msec should be a bumch oc checkboxes where you can choose custom and just tick the items you want enforced.

I don't work for Mandrake, they don't pay me any money, so I could really care less whether you use it or not--use Suse, Red Hat, or IIS if it floats your boat. You haven't provided any details about what you tried and the result, only vague complaints. Obviously, you don't really care to learn or you would have taken the time to try to compose a sensible request for help. With regard to MCC, I've had it bork my system far too many times to trust it to do anything right. I was about to recommend to a friend that she run her business on Mandrake but until a lot of things are fixed, including MCC and a useable firewall that isn't Shorewall comes with the distro I think I'll let sleeping dogs lie and let her go to SuSE instead. I'm glad I haven't. :-) Actually, rereading it I seem to have come off a bit more cranky than I meant to. The reality is that in many cases a lot of networking aps don't work out of the box if you've done something the least bit strange from MCC's point of view. In my own situation it's the use of eth1 to go to the outside world and eth0 on the internal network. This throws all the wizards with respect to networking out of whack on MCC which wants to insist on eth0 as the outward bound device and eth1 + as inward facing. My suspicion is that this is hard coded in the script rather than making use of variables and responding appropriately. When I said MCC borked my system I wasn't kidding. It took three days of rewriting conf files to get things back to normal again. During that time most of the machine's functionality was lost. I could have reinstalled but I'd have learned nothing so I went ahead and did it all by hand making very many mistakes and learning a fair bit in the process. Not the least of which is how interconnected things are in Linux. :-) As for Apache...it seems the default scripts that Mandrake places made the same assumptions about which device did what as the MCC scripts did. Not a big problem. Replace and go for it. Figure out how to get Shorewall to open port 80 on the internal network only, which wasn't fun. (With Shorewall I'm strating to think that there's something in my braincells that doesn't make a connection with howtos and examples that don't match the actual configuration screens. In any event, it works now.) Set up BIND and DNS to handle things there and beat Samba into submission so that the Windoze boxes, now only laptops, can read it. Upload a web page with the entirely original phrase Hello World written on it in dull script. Can't get there from here..even though I can ping it. Even more annoying and puzzling is that the Win 98 laptop has no problem but the Linux machines all error out. Anyway..the point I'm at now is having Apache log everything and looking for what it might be. Ditto DNS and BIND. This never happened on 8.2 :-) However, learning is fun if frustrating at times. The only reason for the recommendation to my friend is that she's in a hurry and I

If used together with the -force flag, this option may be used to blank CD-RW disks that otherwise cannot be blanked. Note that you may need to specify blank=all because some drives will not continue with certain types of bad CD-RW disks. Note also that cdecord does it's best if the -force flag is used but it finally depends on the drive's firmware whether the blanking operation will succeed or not. see man cdrecord for all the other options, device, speed, etc etc. John -- John Richard Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

I need to convert the usb cradle to serial cable and was looking at the how-to page on the subject. Am I correctly interpreting the table (http://cvs.handhelds.org/minihowto/h3600-serial-cable.html) in that I simply connect the pins listed in each row of the table together? Also, I opened up the ipaq cradle and looked at the chip inside. The wiring looks like it would need to be very precise. Not having played around with hardware too much, I was wondering if anybody could give me some suggestions as to the best way for me to go about wiring the pins. It took me a few days to figure out how to do it, but I finally managed to build such a cable. You can rip the USB cradle apart, and re-use the little circuit board found inside (with the attached connector) to build a serial cable that works. Here are some pictures of my cable: http://www.jimpick.com/pub/photos/2000/ipaq/homebrew-ipaq-cable.jpg http://www.jimpick.com/pub/photos/2000/ipaq/homebrew-ipaq-cable-closeup.jpg The connnector on the internal side of the little circuit board is a 14-pin Hirose DF13 Series, which you can get from www.digikey.com. All you need is the nylon connector (DF13-14S-1.25C, 33 cents each) and some crimp contacts (DF13-2630SCF, $3.45/100). Don't bother getting the crimp tool ($989.81) -- you can use a regular crimp tool instead. Theoretically, you can just use the same existing connector that the USB cable is wired into, so you could have a dual USB/serial cable. Apart from that, you need some wire, and a standard DB9 connector on the other end. The pinout on the website is only valid for the external connector. The internal connnector has the pins in different positions. I had to figure out the pinout manually (I started the project before the external pinout was posted on the website). But I have verified that everything makes sense. Here's the pinout: External Internal (Hirose) DB9 Signal (DTE=PC, DCE=iPaq) - --- - 5 27RTS 6 38CTS 7 42RXD 8 53TXD 3 6 6+1DSR + DCD 9 74DTR 4,10 95 Ground Have fun. :-) Cheers, - Jim p.s.

Although I have other dictionaries, I think the more I have, the better. I unpacked the tar ball, read the install file and the make file and altered the latter to suit my system (MDK 9.1). Then, as root, I installed it but it didn't work at all. In the makefile I choose /usr/local/bin as the path. There are some changes and options which are not very clear to me and that's why I think I better show the makefile options. - - SHELL=/bin/sh # Makefile for both source and binary distribution of WordNet 2.0 ### # # The WordNet Unix release is provided as a binary installation for # the following platforms: # # SPARCstation running Solaris 7 # Silicon Graphics Mips processor running Irix 6.8.3 # PC running Redhat Linux # # If you are using one of these systems, you should select the the # appropriate PLATFORM below, and use the 'make BinWorld' command to # install WordNet from the pre-compiled binaries.

Second, blank out your reply-to address. That should only be used when you wish to have replies sent to some other address than the one from which you are sending. The problem is that it causes replies to your posts to go directly to you, but not to the list. Finally, I'm not entirely certain that your method of subscribing will work.

Re: [newbie] Mozilla Spellcheck finds no errors

Dd I miss something? Ev When you run the spellchecker what language is it checking? English. That's all I use. The reason I asked (I should have stated this earlier.) was because I had the same problem when I first ran spellchecker. It had Download More as the language so I assumed (incorrectly) that is was automatically checking English, since that was the language of the browser I was using, and that I could download more language modules if I wanted to. When I changed it to English-- everything worked as it should. This may have only made a difference because I had not yet chosen a spellcheck language; I don't know. I guess that in your case this does not apply. -- Brant Fitzsimmons [EMAIL PROTECTED] All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed.

Re: [newbie] Time Setting
I had the wrong timezone showing on one of my computers after I upgraded KDE. I was seeing Moscow time. Here's how I fixed it: -Right-click on the clock in the taskbar. -Go up to Show Timezone and select Local Time I don't know if this will help you any, but I *hope* it does. I'm seeing the same thing here with Cooker. It actually started fairly recently. Resetting KDE seems to be the only way to fix it at the moment. I've submitted (I hope) it to the Bugzilla system. Right now, show timezone has America/Los Angeles checked (i.e., PDT) but it's off about 4 hours. 'date' is correct. Brant Fitzsimmons [EMAIL PROTECTED] David E.
