module configuration
Hi I've just installed the alsa drivers for my emu10k1 SBLive card and I have 2 problems: 1. when I reboot, the system first loads the "emu10k1" kernel module before everything else so the alsa modules doesn't load. as a workaround I've renamed this module and everything works, but I wonder if there is a more elegant solution. I have no mention of emu10k1 in '/etc/modules.conf' and '/etc/modutils/*' (well. except for the alsa module). 2. In '/etc/modutils/alsa I've put this line "post-install snd-emu10k1-synth /usr/bin/sfxload /usr/local/etc/8MBGMSFX.SF2". the module loads but it doesn't run the post-install command. I have to run it manually. am I doing something wrong? thanx -- Haim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

question about LDAP conventions
Hi I'm trying to learn to implement ldap in organizations, so I've read a few ldap howto's and I know how to do some basic stuff. my problem is that I don't fully understand the naming conventions (maybe due to a lack of knowledge in english...). In the default debian install there are 2 organizational units: roaming and people. could someone please explain (or direct me to some howto's) the difference between them (e.g. to where should I import my address-book)? thanx -- Haim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

compiled kernel problems with ide-scsi and modversions.h
Hi I'm having problems with the new kernel I've compiled on woody. I've used the 2.4.8 source and patched it with xfs filesystem support, and loopback filesystem encryption support. It was compiled with make-kpkg. The problems I have are: when trying to compile the nvidia drivers it can't find 'modversions.h'. indeed there isn't such file in my "/include/linux/" directory. do I have to add a patch or enable some feature so it will appear? The second problem is regarding ide-scsi. I've installed wooey from the XFS install cd's (http://people.debian.org/~blade/XFS-Install/). it seem that he configured the kernel with no ide-cd support. only ide-scsi. I sometimes have problems with it (I have one regular cdrom and one ide burner), so I've enabled ide-cdrom and added append="ide-scsi=/dev/hdd" in '/etc/lilo.conf'. when I run 'cdrecord -scanbus' I get this output: cdrecord: No such file or directory. Cannot open SCSI driver. cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Make sure you are root.

Re: error on root filesystem DEBIAN WON'T BOOT URGENT
Hi I would boot from the cd/floppy in rescue mode (not from the kernel on the hard-disk) and then run fsck on each ext2/3 partition. hopefully it will be able to fix all the errors. This happens from time to time when you use non-journalistic file system. you should consider using reiserfs/xfs/jfs etc... (I personally don't like ext3).

apache-dev dependencies bug?
Hi I've tried to install apache-dev on woody with apt-get and I've got this error: Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: apache-dev: Depends: libdb2-dev (>= 2.7.7-2.1) but it is not going to be installed A little search with apt-cache revealed that I only have libdb2-dev 2:2.7.7.0-7. I thouhgt it was an error in my cache so I searched in packages.debian.org and indeed, apache-dev depends on this version of libdb2-dev, but the version of libdb2-dev is "2:2.7.7.0-7". Am I missing something? or is it a bug (I didn't find anything in the bugs search page)? Bye -- Haim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

AFAIK the default woody kernel doesn't use initrd. if you need one for some reason (or you want to compile a new kernel with initrd) you have to run 'mkinitrd' and add an entry in lilo.conf. remember though that once you've added an initrd entry, you cannot boot from a kernel without one.

Hi from shadow man page: NAME shadow - encrypted password file DESCRIPTION shadow contains the encrypted password information for user's accounts and optional the password aging information. Included is Login name Encrypted password Days since Jan 1, 1970 that password was last changed Days before password may be changed Days after which password must be changed Days before password is to expire that user is warned Days after password expires that account is disabled Days since Jan 1, 1970 that account is disabled A reserved field --- I guess you can get it with 'cut' command. something like: TIME=`grep /etc/shadow | cut -d":" -f 5` echo "your password will expire in $TIME days" the problem is that you can run this commands only as root (users don't have read permissions on shadow file), so you can redirect it to their mails.

changing the keyboard type after installtion
Hi Sorry if this is a trivial question, but I've just came back to Debian after using Solaris for 2 years... I have a KVM that connects both my sparc and my Intel machines.

compiling kernel with encrypted file systems support
Hi I'm using woody with the 2.4.18-bf2.4-xfs kernel. I've noticed that I can't use encrypted file systems. (according to the losetup manpage it only works with the international kernel - I don't even know what's that). I've searched in kernel.org but I couldn't find patches for 2.4.18.

XFCE questions and some thoughts about window managers..
Hi first the questions... I've been using solaris on my desktop for the past year+ so, I don't know if the problems I'm having with xfce are common or are they just my problems: 1. windows without borders and titles (e.g. gqmpeg, xmms etc...) can't be moved while they are iconified. 2. I can't access the bottom items of menus that are taller then the screen. (I think I remember this problem from back when I've used xfce...). Are these common problems? As for the thoughts... (not meaning to start a flame war) It seems that all the modern window managers/desktop managers imitate in one way or another the windows gui. maybe that's the way for fight micro$oft but I relly HATE it. last night while searching for different window managers I've found "ude". it has a very different gui, and although it doesn't have all the features I want, it's quite refreshing. I hope the development will not stop (it happened to me once with "5dwm" - an imitation of the IRIX desktop).

I guess you don't want to manually compile bind every time you get a security advisory so if you're using an OS that's default to bind 8 (solaris, debian?, etc...) you may as well stick with it, just make sure to update the binaries as they are released. of-course if you need bind9 because of a reason, that's a different matter. btw, there are debs of bind9, so I guess it's supported as well. I'm new to debian (just came back from solaris) so I don't know why there are both versions. maybe someone here knows more about the reasons...

some window managers don't read personal menus
Hi Being relatively new debian user, maybe I'm overlooking something but it still is strange... After noticing that some changes I make to my personal "~/.menu/*" doesn't affect nothing I've made a test: I've put 2 files in my "~/.menu". one is the automated crossover menu (which adds 2 menus directly in the root debian menu: crossover and programs) and the other is just a file I've copied from /usr/lib/menu and changed the command. then I've run update-menus. Here are the results: Sawfish, wmaker, icewm and fvwm2: accept all changes. xfce, Gnome (panel menu), and afterstep: doesn't accept nothing uwm: accepts the new menus from the "crossover" file, but doesn't accept the change I've made to "kedit". I've checked and the update-manus program created all the menus correctly, so it's probably the configuration of the individual window mangers that are to be blamed... So, here are my questions: 1. Why the default configuration doesn't prefer my own menus over the system's in so many cases? 2. How do I change these settings in XFce and Gnome?

Need advise about FTP
HI I need to setup an FTP server that accepts virtual domains, and in addition, every domain should have a "master" account and some "users" accounts. the "master" account should be able to delete and upload files for all the "users" accounts. although this will be an isolated computer in the DMZ, I don't want to give shell to anyone and I prefer that these accounts wouldn't be systems accounts. (can I use something like "zope" for this?). any ideas? Bye -- Haim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I thought of that but since it could grow to quite a few virtual domains with a few users on each domain, I think it's easier to stay on top of things with some database of users instead of just going through '/etc/passwd' (e.g. vpopmail has passwd file for every virtual domain...). thanx -- Haim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

I don't use webmin anymore, but when I did, I've always downloaded the one
from "www.webmin.com". don't use the one that comes with debian. before you
install it, make sure to delete the '/etc/webmin' folder if you have one,
also check that there aren't any instances of webmin loading on boot ('ls
/etc/rc*.d/*webmin').

Hi
I don't know ipmasq, but you could use the output of the script as an input
for the command in the cronjob:
`yourscript`
make sure you have the right "`" (in my keyboard - us 105 keys, it's with the
"~" sign).

sync palm with gnomecal
Hi I'm trying to sync my palm with gnomecal, but when I enable this module in the Palm Conduits dialog I get an error and in the console I have this error: libgpilotdcm-WARNING **: unable to g_module_open (/usr/lib/gnome-pilot/conduits/libcalendar_conduit.so), reason /usr/lib/gnome-pilot/conduits/libcalendar_conduit.so: undefined symbol: all_calendars. I've found a bug similar to this, only with another symbol. does anybody have any idea how to solve this (does the version from testing/unstable solve this)? or am I doomed to not being able to sync my palm...

sniffer output question
Hi While I was working on solaris (which in many ways was a terrible experience), there was one thing I really liked. the output from 'snoop' was clear and readable. I was wondering if there is a tool in linux that does the same (or a combination of tools). the only drawback is that it has to be command line (I don't want to launch etherrreal to see a formated output). Here are the output from snoop and tcpdump running the same script that sends mail: - snoop: # snoop host 212.179.78.146 Using device /dev/hme (promiscuous mode) coltrane -> bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net SMTP C port=46787 bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net -> coltrane SMTP R port=46787 coltrane -> bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net SMTP C port=46787 bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net -> coltrane SMTP R port=46787 220 mail-relay.winte coltrane -> bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net SMTP C port=46787 coltrane -> bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net SMTP C port=46787 HELO localhost\r\n bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net -> coltrane SMTP R port=46787 bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net -> coltrane SMTP R port=46787 250 mail-relay.winte coltrane -> bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net SMTP C port=46787 mail from: coltrane SMTP R port=46787 250 ok\r\n coltrane -> bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net SMTP C port=46787 rcpt to: coltrane SMTP R port=46787 250 ok\r\n coltrane -> bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net SMTP C port=46787 data\r\n bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net -> coltrane SMTP R port=46787 354 go ahead\r\n coltrane -> bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net SMTP C port=46787 Mime-version: 1.0\r\n bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net -> coltrane SMTP R port=46787 coltrane -> bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net SMTP C port=46787 Content-type: text/p bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net -> coltrane SMTP R port=46787 bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net -> coltrane SMTP R port=46787 250 ok 1041886186 qp coltrane -> bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net SMTP C port=46787 quit\r\n cont... tcpdump: 10:52:47.720580 parker.haim.org.42384 > bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp: S 3945052066:3945052066(0) win 5840 (DF) 10:52:47.780627 bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp > parker.haim.org.42384: S 1695099701:1695099701(0) ack 3945052067 win 5792 (DF) 10:52:47.780691 parker.haim.org.42384 > bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp: . ack 1 win 5840 (DF) 10:52:47.850070 bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp > parker.haim.org.42384: P 1:38(37) ack 1 win 5792 (DF) 10:52:47.851949 parker.haim.org.42384 > bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp: . ack 38 win 5840 (DF) 10:52:47.853843 parker.haim.org.42384 > bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp: P 1:17(16) ack 38 win 5840 (DF) 10:52:47.917565 bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp > parker.haim.org.42384: . ack 17 win 5792 (DF) 10:52:47.928923 bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp > parker.haim.org.42384: P 38:69(31) ack 17 win 5792 (DF) 10:52:47.930488 parker.haim.org.42384 > bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp: P 17:49(32) ack 69 win 5840 (DF) 10:52:47.990429 bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp > parker.haim.org.42384: P 69:77(8) ack 49 win 5792 (DF) 10:52:47.992133 parker.haim.org.42384 > bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp: P 49:81(32) ack 77 win 5840 (DF) 10:52:48.050677 bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp > parker.haim.org.42384: P 77:85(8) ack 81 win 5792 (DF) 10:52:48.052481 parker.haim.org.42384 > bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp: P 81:87(6) ack 85 win 5840 (DF) 10:52:48.111302 bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp > parker.haim.org.42384: P 85:99(14) ack 87 win 5792 (DF) 10:52:48.113148 parker.haim.org.42384 > bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp: P 87:106(19) ack 99 win 5840 (DF) 10:52:48.199553 bzq-179-78-146.cust.bezeqint.net.smtp > parker.haim.org.42384: . ack 106 win 5792 (DF) cont... any ideas? thanx -- Haim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
