I think you need to point at a directory, not a particular deb. "man sources.list"

deb file:/home/david/debian

/regexp/ is considered a constant, so it won't let you put any variables in the

$0 ~ search { printf("%s\n",$0) }
will work ... it did for me.
HTH,

I had this problem. I forgot the solution, but Google knows all about it (sata
"unexpected interrupt"). In short, I think a combination of kernel upgrade and/or
BIOS settings fixed it.
What kernel version are you running?

As Simon said, it depends on the wording. My employment contract _was_ sufficiently
vague that they could claim rights to one's gourmet pizza recipes developed at home if
they wanted. I had a couple of meetings with my boss and HR and had the wording

Maybe try...
rsync -avn --exclude=transfer / /transfer/ > sync_files.txt
This is completely untested, but in theory is nicer about symlinks etc, and excludes
transfer/ from a comparison with itself.

Probably a good idea given the smaller population base. I'd suggest that you be wary
of what you call and how you promote such a group, since the term "free software

Alternativly you could just mount a file rather then a physical device

technologies on top each other, and I want to try encrypting my ext3
LVM2 /home partition with cryptoloop (on a 2.6.4 kernel).
To achieve this, I belive I have to create a new logical volume (with an
encrypted fil
Thanks Craige,
oh, ow. I guess it helps that I'm also the VPN administrator :)
Yep, I'm going to have to try my luck with the VPN admins next, it
seems. I got a more recent and patched version of the Cisco client to
compile, but it's misbehaving too.

Hi all,
I'm trying to set up a VPN connection from my Debian sarge box to a
Cisco 3030 VPN Concentrator over adsl. I couldn't get the Cisco
vpnclient to compile against kernel 2.6.4, so I'm looking at using vpnc
as an alternative. It looks promising, but I'm stuck at the
configuration stage
