[SLUG] watching Channel Ten videos on Linux?
| I'd like to send a link to an episode of Good News Week to a friend | and I think I found it | with either Chromium 6.0.472.53 or Firefox 3.6.3. | Is there a way to view this on Linux? I just get the digest version of this list (in case this question is already answered). This plays fine on for me with Flash (I have installed the flash plugin in ~/.mozilla/pluginsdownloaded from Adobe). Also if you use Mozilla you can install the plugin video downloadhelper. It will show 3 spinning balls on your toolbar everytime there is downloadable media on a webpage. You can click on the icon and download the episode, it should play with vlc or xine.

But just visiting this page now as I did before this time it plays. So maybe it was a problem on their side.

Re: [SLUG] enabling snmp on NIC ?
I think the latest releases of Net-SNMP have been tightened up security wise. By default on Ubuntu, SNMP access is limit to the system description information. I suspect the same problem is occuring to you on Centos. In the line below from /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf to enable read-only access to all of the available SNMP MIB objects compiled in, you need to change associated security name for the public community from paranoid to read-only, which is what I have done here, by commenting the line with paranoid and uncommenting readonly:- # First, map the community name (COMMUNITY) into a security name # (local and mynetwork, depending on where the request is coming # from): # sec.name source community #com2sec paranoid default public com2sec readonly default public #com2sec readwrite default private So the before and after result from an snmpwalk on the interface part of the MIB tree is below. First with paranoid for public:- $ snmpwalk -v 1 -c public localhost interface End of MIB And now with readonly for public (after doing a service snmpd restart in between) :- $ snmpwalk -v 1 -c public localhost interface IF-MIB::ifNumber.0 = INTEGER: 7 IF-MIB::ifIndex.1 = INTEGER: 1 IF-MIB::ifIndex.2 = INTEGER: 2 IF-MIB::ifIndex.3 = INTEGER: 3 IF-MIB::ifIndex.4 = INTEGER: 4 IF-MIB::ifIndex.5 = INTEGER: 5 IF-MIB::ifIndex.6 = INTEGER: 6 IF-MIB::ifIndex.8 = INTEGER: 8 IF-MIB::ifDescr.1 = STRING: lo IF-MIB::ifDescr.2 = STRING: eth1 IF-MIB::ifDescr.3 = STRING: eth2 IF-MIB::ifDescr.4 = STRING: br0 IF-MIB::ifDescr.5 = STRING: ip6tnl0 IF-MIB::ifDescr.6 = STRING: ano-linode IF-MIB::ifDescr.8 = STRING: tap0 IF-MIB::ifType.1 = INTEGER: softwareLoopback(24) IF-MIB::ifType.2 = INTEGER: ethernetCsmacd(6) IF-MIB::ifType.3 = INTEGER: ethernetCsmacd(6) IF-MIB::ifType.4 = INTEGER: ethernetCsmacd(6) IF-MIB::ifType.5 = INTEGER: tunnel(131) IF-MIB::ifType.6 = INTEGER: tunnel(131) IF-MIB::ifType.8 = INTEGER: ethernetCsmacd(6) IF-MIB::ifMtu.1 = INTEGER: 16436 IF-MIB::ifMtu.2 = INTEGER: 1500 IF-MIB::ifMtu.3 = INTEGER: 1500 IF-MIB::ifMtu.4 = INTEGER: 1500 IF-MIB::ifMtu.5 = INTEGER: 1460 IF-MIB::ifMtu.6 = INTEGER: 1360 IF-MIB::ifMtu.8 = INTEGER: 1500 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.1 = Gauge32: 1000 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.2 = Gauge32: 1000 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.3 = Gauge32: 1000 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.4 = Gauge32: 1000 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.5 = Gauge32: 0 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.6 = Gauge32: 0 IF-MIB::ifSpeed.8 = Gauge32: 1000 - 8- Regards, Martin Regards, Martin martinvisse...@gmail.com On Fri, Sep 17, 2010 at 12:19 PM, Voytek Eymont li...@sbt.net.au wrote: On Thu, September 16, 2010 9:42 pm, Amit Dor-Shifer wrote: Is netsnmp built with ifmib support?

[SLUG] www krap
Guys can anybody suggest a www host service that works. I tested and signed up with http://crazydomains.com.au Their sys-admin then decided to limit access to /usr/bin Gallery needs a graphics toolkit, they provide imagemagick but imagemagick needs the binaries. Their sys-admin are somewhat dense and definitely lord- high-sys-admins. So they broke a working site and don't seem willing/able to fix. I looked at http://godaddy.com but they seem to be oh so FOS. ie 10G space but only 1024 files max. So can anybody suggest a no-frills cheap www hosting service. I need to have a working gallery2 so php, mysql and 1000s files.

Re: [SLUG] www krap
Hi James, after searching around a lot I finally found Micron21. They are brilliant. They are in Melbourne. They answer the phone. They speak English. They are techo's that know their stuff. They will help you on the spot. They know Linux etc. Their prices are good. I have no affiliation with them other than being a customer. http://www.micron21.com Thanks, Ben Donohue donoh...@icafe.com.au On 21/09/2010 12:24 PM, james wrote: Guys can anybody suggest a www host service that works.

You will also probably need an invoicing package, and as far as I can tell there are no good simple user-friendly invoicing packages for Linux yet. (If anyone knows of one please tell me.) I have trialled several packages including one with an SQL database and a PHP interface via a web page, but it was very cumbersome and non-portable. I now use an old shareware package from Windows called Instant Invoice. Unfortunately it is no longer available in that form, but you can buy their combined invoice and cashbook package from http://www.instantinvoice.net/ A free 30-day trial is available. I had some troubles with Instant Invoice in earlier versions but under Wine with Ubuntu 10.4/Mint 9 it's been bulletproof. Regards, Jon.

[SLUG] SLUG Monthly Meeting: 24 September 2010
== September 2010 SLUG Meeting == Location Google Sydney - 48 Pirrama Road, Pyrmont Summary * Date: Friday September 24 2010 * Start time: Arrive at 6pm for a 6:30pm start * Format: Lightning(ish) talks * == RSVP at http://slug.eventbrite.com == * Suggest or sign up for a talk below Details Instead of running two 45 minute talks will be having two sets of lightning(ish) talks. For those who don't know what a Lightning talk is, it's a very short talk to get a short overview about a subject. They are great because if you are not interested in the current subject you only have to listen for a few minutes. I personally have found that I always learn something cool, exciting or new! Rather than a fixed length, we're inviting people to nominate how long they think their talk will go. Ideally we'd like two sessions of around 45 minutes. You're welcome to talk about anything from something simple as The new idea I want help with to the My summary of this 45 minute talk or even 5 cool facts about Tim Ansell. If you are interested in talking, please sign up below. Don't think you can give a talk, but have an idea for a talk you'd like to see? Add it to the **Talks I'd like to see**[2] page on the wiki!
