[OT] real time video appl
Hi group
I want to develop a small application.
It would run full screen, the screen would be divided in to halves, a fixed
or parametrized string, and a (web)camera output.
Should i develop it natively with X, or use a video/graphical toolkit (and
which ?)
And what if I'd like to have screenshots printed (or at least the camera
window) ?
Any advice appreciated
tia

I want to make the >machines behind them look like they are on the same network. Is there a >relatively easy and secure way of doing this?

I'd suggest CIPE I think people see VPNs as a complex thing because they just don't know the way it works in the case of CIPE (others system too, i guess), you just get a new network interface on each computer, and the two interfaces are in the same ip subnet. think of it in the same manner as ppp provides a ppp0 interface and a link over a telephony network, no matter how complex this sub layer is : cipe provides a cipb0 interface and a link over an ip sub-layer (ther internet, actually). a basic configuration would be : private network 1 <-> lanbox 1 <-> internet <-> internet <-> internet <-> lanbox 2 <-> private network 2 adding a VPN between lanbox 1 and lanbox 2 just "hides" the internet sub layer and shrinks the configuration to : private network 1 <-> lanbox 1 <-> lanbox 2 <-> private network 2 now, suppose your private network 1 has IP subnet #1, private network 2 IP subnet #2, and the VPN adds an IP subnet #3 between the lanboxes. then the routing configuration is obvious : set a static route to subnet #2 on lanbox 1 via lanbox 2's cipb0 ip address (ie lanbox 2's ip address in subnet #3) and conversely a static route to subnet #1 on lanbox2 via lanbox 1's cipb0 ip address. of course i guess that private network 1 machines have already a default route that points to lanbox 1 and conversely for private network 2 machines. now, you have a total control over routes and you can make private subnets communicate easily and securely. of course, lanbox 1 and lanbox 2 can be configured to NAT outgoing packets which do not concern private to private traffic. so to make short consider a vpn as a new point-to-point link. isn't it finally easy ? - * - * - * - * - * - * - Si nous avons chacun un objet et que nous les echangeons, nous avons encore chacun un objet.

Re: Apache INDEX.CGI
so you have a server which root directory is /foo you have a directory /foo/bar for which you want apache to display the result of a script as a directory listing this script is INDEX.CGI and it is in /foo/bar of course /foo/bar/INDEX.CGI has its execute bit set you don't have to deal with scriptalias in this cas, because your script isn't in a special "cgi-bin" directory instead you have to allow ".CGI" extension files to be executed as such, the easiest way being to add an "option execcgi" in the ".htaccess" file within /foo/bar. but don't forget to check apache's config file to mark .CGI files as cgi executables : by default, only ".cgi" are defined this way. maybe it would be clever at this time to rename your script "index.cgi" in all lowercase letters. from an out-of-thez-box apache install, i'd simply : - create the "index.cgi" script, lowercase, chmod a+x, in /foo/bar - create update the ".htaccess" to add "Options ExecCGI" in /foo/bar - likely update it to add "DirectoryIndex index.cgi" this ought to be enough then http://your.server/bar/ should display /foo/bar/index.cgi 's output hth A 17:23 03/05/01 +0430, vous avez écrit : >I did this directive in the location directive .

Re: Extrange Apache log record
this looks much more like an "sh -c" command called either through a cgi or worse through an exploit, lacking the argument string (ie : the shell command), fortunately for you but unfortunately for the caller. the fact that those error messages reside in the generic "error_log" instead of in a virtual server log file means that this thing happens BEFORE the server can check WHICH virtual server to connect. if you can't relate the beginning of those message with a configuration change, it may be likely that you're getting strange http requests... let us know ! >TGF> I'm having a lot of lines like this on /etc/httpd/log/error_log >TGF> sh: `-c' requires an argument >TGF> It's very extrange because all the servers running from apache are >TGF> virtualized and with their specific 'error_log' files... >TGF> What does this means? > >man httpd for more... > >"-c" is for adding directives after the config file has been read.

Re: Samba/Remote printing problem
use smbclient on you machine to see the shares on the server. this will show whether the two machines have a good dialog (the "net view \\server"-like command) is the lpd dameon up and running on the server (you need this to define a non-smb remote printer on you laptop). check this : configure and use an lpr printer from a win$ box onto the server also try and access a printer share on a win$ box from your laptop. if it works it will show that it's a server config problem hth A 10:21 20/03/2001 -0500, vous avez écrit : >Hi everyone, > >Here's my situation.

I think there's a bottleneck somewhere you should run "top" or any other command to see whether the cpu consumption is at "user" or "system" level. if it is at user level, maybe something goes wrong with your version of samba (you didn't say which). if it is at the system level, it can be either network or file subsystem. of course you checked anything in log files ? in case of a large file transfer (which seems to be the origin of your problems), is the network throughput normal ? that is, suppose you transfer a 10 MB file to a 10 Mbps client station, transfer time should range between 20 seconds (500 KB/sec transfer rate) and 50 (200 KB/sec). try the same tests with a 100 Mbps client station. what if you copy large files from one file system to another, locally on the server, without any network ? does cpu jump high too ? did you try and change network card ? i know some, even if sold to be 100 mbps, are much... lazzy... than others at the end, try to tune samba itself : read man pages about TCP socket options, read/write buffer length and disk/network operations overlap hth - * - * - * - * - * - * - Mes idees n'engagent que moi (vieux proverbe du Net) Thierry ITTY eMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]FRANCE ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

strange behaviour of mount
Howdy I'm setting up a server for which i want a high availability. it's rh 7.0 "out of the box". basically, it has one partition for /, one for /var, and one for swap i decided to "duplicate" each partition (/ and /var, not swap) so my partition table looks like (it's a scsi disk) sda1 primary 500 MB type 83 sda2 primary 500 MB type 83 sda3 extended 1000 MB sda5 logical 300 MB type 83 sda6 logical 300 MB type 83 sda7 logical 300 MB type 82 the normal situation is to mount /dev/sda1 as / and /dev/sda5 as /var i created (mke2fs) filesystems on /dev/sda2 and /dev/sda6 i brought them online (mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/sda2, mount /dev/sda6 /mnt/sda6) i duplicated the file systems (cp -ax / /mnt/sda2, cp -ax /var /mnt/sd6) then i changed lilo to add the new system boot=/dev/sda map=/boot/map install=/boot/boot.b prompt timeout=50 message=/boot/welcome linear default=linux image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.16-22 label=linux initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.16-22.img read-only root=/dev/sda1 image=/mnt/sda2/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.16-22 label=secours initrd=/mnt/sda2/boot/initrd-2.2.16-22.img read-only root=/dev/sda2 everything works fine with that, except one thing : when i boot "secours", the system mounts /dev/sda2 as /, i can check it for sure with some differences between the two file systems (especially lilo.conf !), but mount shows /dev/sda1 mounted as / why ? - * - * - * - * - * - * - Mes idees n'engagent que moi (vieux proverbe du Net) Thierry ITTY eMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]FRANCE ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Re: how to run script on shutdown
servers often store their (main) process id in a "pid" file, and create a
(empty) lock file (by just touching it). if the startup script is called
twice, the lock file prevents the server to be lauched twice. when the
shutdown script is called, it removes the lock file, and usually gets the
server's pid from the pid file, then sends that process a kill signal.
in your case i'm not sure this is necessary at all : just do a "killall
-YOURSIGNAL userprocessname" in the shutdown script, and it should be enough.

Re: Apache source????
i'm not sure you need any source. whenever it would be the case, install
the source package corresponding to the binary package you want (packages
...src.rpm)
if you get a recent version of apache in a binary rpm package form, then
you should be able to install the binary rpm package for php4 (mod_php4) as
well as the perl module
what happens in your case may be that your apache version is a bit old for
php4
did you try installing php3 ?

Thanks in advance. what's the problem with asking your internal users to configure their browsers to use your isp's filtering proxy ? and if they don't listen to what you ask,, then just add a filter on the firewall allowing TCP port 80 traffic to go only to this isp's ip address and forbid any other target ip ? so you won't have forced the redirection by changing the packets but imposed it as the only way out for http hth, - * - * - * - * - * - * - Mes idees n'engagent que moi (vieux proverbe du Net) Thierry ITTY eMail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]FRANCE ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Re: Groupware anybody?
here's what Linux Software Encyclopedia
("http://stommel.tamu.edu/~baum/linuxlist/linuxlist/linuxlist.html") tells
about TWIG :
TWIG
The Web Information Gateway is an intranet/groupware tool and
application framework. It is implemented using PHP
and is intended to become a simple, cross-platform, fast and
browser-independent way to access or share almost any kind
of information. The features currently (7/99) supported by TWIG include:
email via IMAP;
a contact manager;
scheduling;
Usenet newsgroups;
``to do'' lists; and
bookmarks.
Many more features are planned by the developers, with extensions by
users also fairly easy due to the modular
construction of TWIG. A source code distribution is available under the
GPL.

when you do a "grep ntpd" you will get a process which will show as "grep
ntpd" in the ps process list
thus when grep actually processes this list it will pick up the line(s)
concerning the ntpd process(es) if any, AND the line concerning the grep
process itself.
if you do a "grep [n]tpd" the grep process will show as "grep [n]tpd"
(because ps displays the arguments as entered) but the grep command will
only pick up lines containing "ntpd" (which is the only possible match for
the regular expression "[n]tpd" hence not picking up it's own line
this is funny, but
ps -ef | grep ntpd | grep -v grep
is much cleaner in my opinion

Re: samba
just my 2 cents : when you start the smb daemon it reads the config file you specify on the command line (or in the init.d/smb script) or the default one (depending on compile-time options). when it gets a connection request it forks (or spawns) a new dameon with the config file specified in the original config file's config file option line (see what i mean ?) that's why you can specify samba variables (like %L) which will be expanded at the time of the child process creation. in my opinion those config files (smb.conf.FILE and smb.conf.PRINT) have to be "complete" that is identical but eventually with different share sections or different parameters (auth lists and so on). anyway the must be consistent enough to "work" standalone. that is, if you start the smb daemon with either of those config files, you must have a "print only" or a "files only" server running fine. then, when your 2 configurations are well defined and working fine, you can try to get a mix with a third config file in which you will specify the alternatives config files with "config file = smb.conf.%L". of course take care to case sensitivity and other stuff which may cause problems. doing this that way, and with log files information (use debugging parameter to help) you should be able to satisfy your wish. but, i have just a question, what will it give you to have such a dual configuration ??? hth A 15:27 18/01/2001 -0700, vous avez écrit : >We've made progress! > >Some times you just have to wait for things to propagate in netbios.
