With a bit more work, you could additionally mimic the file system hierarchy within the trash folder, but that doesn't get you out of handling multiple deletes of the same name (since files often get recreated after they're deleted).

I just ran a test... starting at about 1200Mb RAM and 1400Mb swap, I launched X-Plane, Firefox, Opera, Seamonkey, VMWare (running 10.2), and VirtualBox (running WinXP). RAM maxed out and things started swapping with swap going from 1400Mb to 2200Mb - what I would call expected normal behaviour. Exited all the applications, and RAM was released, and some swap was released and it's now sitting at 1572Mb. If I close down everything, log out and log back in, swap usage doesn't move.. or if anything swap use increases slightly on login.now it will never drop below 1572Mb swap until I reboot. I expect that it'll top over 2000Mb in the next 24 hours... most of that while sitting idle. Now the annoying thing about this prob is sometimes for no easily discernible reason, during normal use (not the stress test I did above) RAM will not be maxed out, and the system will start paging out to swap... and swap use will go up.. and not be released. eventually swap is maxed out, and the computer basically becomes unusable. Reboot fixes. Well you did not mention SuSE 9.2 and Evolution so perhaps its one of the services root loads when getting to run level 5. Try two things, first crtl alt F1 and as root init 3 and let it run about ten minutes then check top as suggested. If its still a problem do init 1 and top as before. Also try this over night reboot to run level 1,3 and 5 on separate nights and see where swap gets to by checking in C-A-F1 If either of these cures the problem its something root or the system puts up. ___ _ _ _ _ _ _ || | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

On Tue, 2007-08-07 at 13:42 -0400, James Knott wrote: A boot sector virus is executed every time the computer is booted. Any OS can be vulnerable to a boot sector virus during booting, because the OS is not running at that time. The only protection is what's provided with the BIOS. On the other hand computers running protected operating systems, such as Linux or OS/2 cannot be infected when running, as they have mechanisms to prevent it. DOS and DOS based versions of Windows (3.1, 95, 98 etc) do not have such protection and can be infected whenever the virus is run. MY PII was thus infected because I multi boot with Win311 for legacy apps. Rewriting the MBR from SuSE8.2 at the time did not cure the problem. It was a harmless variant of a known virus which I defeated with Fprot and hard rebooting. At the time using FProt in the recommended way found the virus in memory and therefore refused to clean the infection. I beat this problem by telling FProt to ignore memory and to do the clean then I immediately rebooted. I did this three times then ran FProt in the usual way and no virus was found. From then on I made Linux the default boot and load data from media therein. To protect the anti virus software I kept it zipped in a location not in the PATH and used a script to break out and run the program in a directory I make up at that time. There is not much you can do with such legacy systems but the exorcise in paranoia is healthy. -- ___ _ _ _ _ _ _ || | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Your risk comes from outside agents who would seek to capture the server. Herein lies the risk which requires the use of memory not hard drive to store the lists public and private keys. If they reside in volatile memory then they can not be captured. If your really smart the host will reside headless in a confined space with a proximity alarm which reboots the server if the server is disturbed thus destroying the list keys. Using this protocol you have one final risk; picking who can be trusted to join the list since anyone once joining will still be able to read all messages but no business or government will be able. This is the basis of the Spitzer protocol. I have discussed it only a few times. No one has implemented it as of yet, though it would be ideal for use by both government and political activists.

I can't seem to find any documentation for creating this same kind of Master Image for SLED. I understand that Imaging will be less of an issue with Linux due to the severely lowered privilege's regarding installing software into the core operating system, but I still need to be able to overcome any form of corruption quickly. I would also like to distribute a dual boot system image for few years. How do automate the local host name change for Zenworks importing and management? With different hardware any image of the windows part of the drive will be a problem. You will need safe mode and to fuss with drivers. For SuSE its much easier boot to mode 3; run SaX2 -l; init 5; login as root at which point the different hardware will be found click yes for the reconfiguration and your fine. I installed 9.2 this way on a PIII and moved the disk to the PII because the PIII had the DVD. As I remember Zenworks like VMware is for running multiple OS in parallel. But first you want an image for SLED and to dual boot. There I think its easier first start with your XP partition on what we will call the primary system which would be on hda1 and I assume no file exchange partition as users will have flash drives. Second partition the rest of the drive as an extended partition into which you will use Yast/Custome partitioning for the logical partitions for Linux. I recommend using the standard four, /boot / swap and /home as hda5, hda6, hda7 and hda8 respectively. Now here its tricky DVD backup will fail over time due to media failure so consider it temporary, harddrives can fail but overtime they have a longer shelf life than the ten years commonly assumed for CDR and DVDR. So backup your backup at least yearly and make incrementals if you make small changes. You can also mirror the drive onto another drive say in a USB inclosure. Yes you want to be paranoid. Now for that master image of the dual booting drive you just created. As long as the target device is the same or larger than the source you can use device-device to copy /dev/hda to /dev/hdb thats not just one partition but the whole drive byte by byte partitions and all. All that is needed is the target to be on the network somewhere hdb here is only an example as I have a system with two caddy because for a long time I only had one burner so I used sneaker net to bring the drive to backup. If however you want to do this on systems which are remote or just not on the network then you can use mondo-rescue to make an install set for all the programs on your system. If you want the Windows partition included it must be mounted at the time you run mondo. Then you will have an executable setup which boots and installs the disks. -- ___ _ _ _ _ _ _ || | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Unsure If the old PII will be upgraded much beyond that unless I can find a new processor. -- ___ _ _ _ _ _ _ || | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/ | \ /|\ || |\ / |~~\ /~~\ /~~| //~~\ | \ / | \ || | X |__/||| |( `--. |__ | | \| \_/ / \ | \ \__/ \__| \\__/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [opensuse] red prompt for root user
I checked several of the links on: http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/Bash-Prompt-HOWTO.html many are down. export PS1=$PWD/\w\[\e[0;34m\]\u:) \[\e[0m\] /home/cwsiv/~/mp3/KennyG/GreatestHitscwsiv:) As you can see it keeps up with the depth of the directory but there is an extra tilde and forward slash.

[opensuse] still having problems
I can not subscribe even under a new address. Last time I posted to the list but only received off list replies. So again I try to subscribe via two different addresses. This is now the fourth time. What is wrong with the list host. At the very list a new address on a different host should be able to subscribe even if something has gone wrong on the original. I can only conclude there is a hidden setting for no mail and it has erroneously been set to stop me from receiving email. -- ___ _ _ _ _ _ _ || | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/ | \ /|\ || |\ / |~~\ /~~\ /~~| //~~\ | \ / | \ || | X |__/||| |( `--. |__ | | \| \_/ / \ | \ \__/ \__| \\__/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[opensuse] I am back with backup email
Looks like myrealbox is going to stay busted for a time. I am so annoyed that I went to register.com to get the responsible parties email and sent in a complaint. Someone there screwed up. then again this year has been a bad one for myrealbox with the server blowing out etc. I probably should have done this before just to have this list on both computers I use. thanks to those who helped and those who tried.

[opensuse] This is getting silly
I first try to resubscribe, having no message that I am bouncing. Second I write both webmasters for opensuse and myrealbox. Still no results. What is wrong here? Between the two parts of Novell that I can not use a Novell project MyRealBox now hosted by Messaging ARchetects, to get mail from a Novell list about Suse. -- ___ _ _ _ _ _ _ || | | [__ | | | |___ |_|_| ___] | \/ | \ /|\ || |\ / |~~\ /~~\ /~~| //~~\ | \ / | \ || | X |__/||| |( `--. |__ | | \| \_/ / \ | \ \__/ \__| \\__/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
