 I added following to my .screenrc
 caption always “%H %c | %-w%{=}%n-%t%{-}%+w”

 but when I execute screen then only for some initial seconds I can see
 the window name and some other details in bottom.
 How can I set it to permanently view?
 There is one more file .screen
 which has
 hardstatus alwayslastline

 In my .screenrc what should I modify?

Re: want to use dnsmasq to resolve on localhost

2011-02-11 Thread C S Shyam Sundar
Your configuration is correct. However, Im unable to understand what you
exactly need.

Remove 127.0.0.1 in /etc/resolv.conf from the server which has dnsmasq
installed. ( i presume, it is 192.168.1.2 ). Add other dns like 8.8.8.8 to
query other servers from internet.

In all the other nodes ( the vm's ) - add 192.168.1.2 in the
/etc/resolv.conf in the first line.

Im not sure if this solved your problem. If not, please elaborate on what
you exactly want on this configuration.

  I installed dnsmasq on my server but the query is still not being
  answered from localhost.
  In /var/log/syslog I see following
 
  dnsmasq[1094]: no servers found in /var/run/dnsmasq/resolv.conf, will
  retry
 
 
  Feb 10 16:17:44  dnsmasq[1094]: reading /var/run/dnsmasq/resolv.conf
  Feb 10 16:17:44  dnsmasq[1094]: using nameserver 192.168.1.2#53
 
  which is querying the DNS on Lan which does not have entries for the
  Virtual Machines running on top of my server.
 
  In my /etc/resolv.conf I have following when
  nameserver 127.0.0.1
  search somedomain.corporate.org
 
  where as I want in /etc/resolv.conf
 
  nameserver 127.0.0.1
  nameserver 192.168.1.2
  search somedomain.corporate.org
 
  there are some queries which have to be answered only via localhost.It
  is a reverse proxy situation.
 
  The /etc/hosts file reads as follows
 
  127.0.0.1   localhost
  192.168.100.14  someserver
  192.168.1.13  domu1.tapas.domain
  192.168.1.14  domu2.tapas.domain
  192.168.1.15  domu3.tapas.domain
  192.168.1.16  domu4.tapas.domain
  # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
  ::1 localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
  fe00::0 ip6-localnet
  ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
  ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
  ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
 
  Where 192.168.100.14 is the machine on which all this has to be done.
  So what more should I be doing?

 Here it is I had uncommented a line
 http://pastebin.com/ESuky7dh
 the pastebin file which you see is currently in use
 I had uncommened following
 listen-address=127.0.0.1
 and used but it had not effect.
 So right now my dnsmasq.conf looks like what you see on pastebin.

 Considering that these are not official derivatives, I don't
 understand why are you asking on a mailing list related to Ubuntu.
 Don't these distributions have their own mailing list?

Re: [ubuntu-in] Alternate Offline Dictionary

2010-05-08 Thread C S Shyam Sundar
Hi -

There is one other alternate dictionary called
arthahttp://artha.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Home
.

It is completely offline and based on Wordnet. If you have used Wordweb in
Windows, you know Artha.

For a list of features, see artha.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Features

For installation - apt-get install artha

 Hi

 Some time back i had posted on how to use the normal dictionary in offline
 mode
 (this is Dictionary 2.28.1)

 However there is another similar dictionary which seems, to me, to perform
 better (Xfce4 Dictionary 0.5.3) link
 http://goodies.xfce.org/projects/applications/xfce4-dict

 i think this will be available in some repos, because it came built into
 the
 ultimate edition 2.5 .

 The key diiferences that i can make out are
 a. Its easier to set up for offline (of course one needs to install all the
 offline dicts and the dict client and server - last two i think )

 To set up , locally, go to preferences
 In the General - select Dictionary Server
 In Dictionary Server - type in 127.0.0.1 where the server is mentioned
 and finally in web service at the lower section there is a URL again type
 in
 127.0.0.1.

 Ready to rock and roll

 B. the best and biggest difference is when one types a word to get the
 meaning
 it provides responses from all the available dictionarys , seems confusing
 but
 in the Gnome dict the meanings responses are provided from only the first
 dict
 and one must then navigate to each individual dict to get the appropriate
 response.

 hope its useful

Re: [ubuntu-in] Ubuntu and Archlinux Dual boot

2010-04-26 Thread C S Shyam Sundar

 Gentoo is a pain to maintain, and I would recommend it only if you
 have a use case that justifies it. I was an avid Gentoo user in
 college for three years, where I had the time to recompile the kernel
 and other packages to enable/disable features. This is of course
 solved if you use the genkernel script to generate the kernel in
 gentoo, but that for me that would defeat the purpose of using of a
 source only distro which allows customization and tweaks.


Not entirely true. I work for a company where we have production servers
running on Gentoo. Note that we have to maintain our own binary repo. But
the performance is phenomenal.


 As far as support goes, the gentoo wiki used to be quite well
 maintained. Not sure if that's the case these days.


Gentoo Wiki is maintained.
IRC is friendly for support.

Again, don't bother with Gentoo if you don't have time to invest. Not
 saying it's a bad distro, in fact it is quite the opposite if you have
 the time and energy to set it up to your liking.


True.

Re: [ubuntu-in] LXC containers

2010-04-26 Thread C S Shyam Sundar
Hi -

At work, I'm using LXC containers.

From what I understand, similar to Solaris zones and FreeBSD jails, each
container is a process.

Each container, like a VM, will run a full blown OS and has its own FS
layout, NIC interfaces, etc.

One can setup X, VNC, SSH and use it like a VM or run and isolate particular
process.

There is this interesting technical article in IBM developer
workshttp://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-lxc-containers/,
which outlines how to setup an LXC container and isolate stuff.

 Dear friends,
   I am trilled by the recent addition of LXC containers in the Linux
 Mainline Kernel. If you haven't heard of LXC Containers, it is similar to
 FreeBSD Jails.
 Since I am very immature in this technology, I would appriciate if you guys
 can help me configure LXC

 My need
   *To isolate a process using LXC Containers for Example Firefox.*
 Since web browser is the main security hole in any Operating system, I
 would like to isolate the process and run it in a sandbox..
 Hope my requirement is very feasible...

Re: [ubuntu-in] LXC containers

2010-04-26 Thread C S Shyam Sundar

 Can I run processes like Firefox?


Jails, Containers were traditionally created for running daemons. But
that doesn't mean we can't run GUI Apps.

All GUI apps need X server running with a display. GUI apps can be run
either by logging on to that box using NX/VNC sessions or via X11
forwarding.


 There is this interesting technical article in IBM developer 
 workshttp://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-lxc-containers/,

 Sure I will try and post with problems, Of course I will have to face some
 of them :)

Hi Ram -

Im not the developer of Artha. My dear friend RM Sundaram, who is also in
this mail trail is the actual developer. I'm just a wiki maintainer and
tester of Artha.

All thanks to Sundaram.

2010/4/20 Ramnarayan.K ramnaraya...@gmail.com

 HI Shyam Sundar,

 I guessed correctly that you are the developer of Artha.

 First good show, irrespective of the minor bugs and missing features
 Artha is a good piece of work and greatly enhances productivity.

 It makes a lot of sense esp the misspelled words also being shown
 options - something that dict's don't do. Plus the various options -
 antonyms, similar words etc.

  1. I cannot get artha to work - it was working till some time back,
  but seems like software that i installed directly from .deb files (in
  fact was going to mail that issue separately) so i could not re test
  the issues to get back with more details
 
  2. So Reading my older mails i found these two issues only
 
  a. However if there is some kind developer soul it would be good if
  this artha could have more options to add other off line dictionaries
  , specially in multiple languages. (liek the dictionary app)
 
  The developer is indian (or of indian origin) which i think shows that
  indians are also now contributing back
 
  b. There are some problems with the hot key combination, and it does
  not work (as mentioned in the wiki) as planned. I guess over time
  these issues will hopefully get resolved
 
  -
  regarding a) one of the reasons i like the dictionary app is that i
  could add the hindi - english -  english hindi dict for offline use.
  Am not able to do this with artha - hence the statement that it should
  be used in combination.
 
  regarding b. i cannot test that out as yet but onc ei do will report
  back with the results
