bash profile question

I know you can use your .bash_profile to let you see the current directory and a prompt ( like in dos or os/2 ) I do have a profile which does this but was wondering if some people could post their profiles so maybe I can choose another which I like more or something like that. Carved upon my

Oops! Shouldn't have deleted that file...

Uh... slight problem! I was screwing with Apache... a non debian version. I wanted to totaly scrap the non deb version, and I deleted all the files. And one too many.. Mainly '/etc/init.d/apache' That file shows being in the Apache 1.1.1-5(or some number like that) debian release, but it does

IPFWADM and DIALD

Hi all, I sent a fairly long enquiry a couple of days ago but nothing happened. In this case I would like to know who are the DIALD and IPFWADM maintainers so that I can really get to grips with what is happening internally in these packages and see if I can solve my problems. Thanks. Simon

color for minicom?

I installed the minicom package, but I cannot get any colors to work on it. The screens always come up in plain grey on black. I have all the ncurses stuff installed. Is there an env variable I need to set or something? Thanks, Chris. === Chris R. Martin email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: analog log analyzer?

I heard something about a program called analog in debian which does httpd log file analysis? Does it exist? I tried to look for it in the debian ftp area but couldn't find anything (at least in the packages file). Yes, analog does exist, and I've it's maintainer for debian. You were

Re: syslogd won't start

Some versions of sysklogd die at bootup when your net is not running (as in under ppp). Adding entries in /etc/hosts may solve your problem. See a recent thread in the comp.os.linux groups... Thanks, that did it! For the record, here's the solution to this problem: Ed Merrifield ([EMAIL

Hi, I'm the diald maintainer. That doesn't mean I can give you any useful advice :-) Sorry I didn't reply to you last message, but I'm not particularly skilled in networking (I maintain diald only because when I installed Debian the first time diald was not part of the distribution) and I was
