Hi there,
I need to share a console session with screen on a development server
with a collegae (we are both on remote locations). It works when one of
us is root. Problem is: how can I make it work for a non-root account?
I follow the procedures as depicted in

Ok, I've found (and made my own copy of) a nice list of linux-wlan-ng

I get for my impulsive/hasty buying ...

I am attempting to upgrade my old redhat 7.3 gateway to debian and am
running into a problem with the backup gateway I am trying to install in
the interim.
I have a box with 2 cards that both use the tulip driver. One is a
lite-on pnic-II and the other is a ADMtek comet according to
/var/log/me
Do'h ... and I'm officially dyslexic. I glanced at that line and
thought it was the onboard modem.
Hmm, it looks like I'll need to get a different card ... I bought this

Hi,
first I'd like to thank Kevin for his nice diagram!

Hello,
while trying to compile a module (shfs) for my kernel (compiled from source,
version 2.6.5) I got a segmentation fault error. I deleted my kernel-source
folder, while keeping a copy of my configuration, and tried to recompile it.
I got the same error again, here it is :
==
Solved !
Thanks to Ron Johnson who help me to identify the problem:
It seems that in kernel 2.6.8 and later, I need the codepage 437 to
mount vfat partitions. I chekcked my configuration in 2.6.6 and it was
not needed.
/usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.6> cat .config | grep -i "437"
# CONFIG_NLS_CODEPA
In relation to debugging my DNS lookup woes (see other posts!) I'm
going to buy a spare PCI ethernet card. Since my firewall machine is
tiny and quiet, it only has one PCI slot so I'd like to get a
multiport, ideally four port, card. Some time back people recommended
the Intel Pro multiport cards
OK Another take on this: I'm trying to debug why DNS lookups from a
Debian woody firewall machine have become slow over an ADSL link to
British Telecom's DNS servers (router and servers not changed lately).
I'm an amateur sysop but generally cope well but need some help
debugging this.

Hi,
Is the sarge-i386-15.iso the latest image for downloading, why it is
only 29M?
Thanks.
