mozilla and junk mail
hi I've downloaded mozilla 1.3b and enabled the junk mail controls etc .. i'm marking messages as junk for 2 weeks now, but the junk filter does not seem to work as no messages was moved to the junk folder, nor any line in the log.

One quite unlikely scenario in which you can indeed benefit from not having '.' in your path: someone broke into an account which doesn't belong to a real user (say, httpd) and is unable to upgrade to superuser, so he puts an "ls" in some directory he can write (e.g., /tmp) and hopes the superuser will accidentally run it. Or perhaps a normal user runs it, and then the trojan can modify his setup (add an 'su' alias or program, etc.) to steal the superuser password. Some people might consider this risk serious enough to change the path. I don't, usually.

When you use an external pager with mutt, you have to finish viewing the

Rule #1 for script writing - never EVER relay on $PATH, better reset the path to a known value if you can and if you have the patience lookup individual command full paths at the beginning. I think there are already tools and standard "script libraries" to do that for you. Of course you are going to jump and say that scripts can't guess the right value for PATH, but that depends on the situation - if it's a global script then usually it should relay on globally available programs anyway. If it's something "local for the group" or something then even more so it can know which components should go in the path. Even if you are writing the script for your own private use I still recommand that you set the PATH because you never know what's going to be in it (e.g. scripts invoked via ssh and such or other situations where the "normal" path settings do not happen). --Amos = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

That will be a problem with the script. In scripts, it is a good idea to use absolute paths in any case. There are too many ways you can confuse the system regarding an executable: different set or order of directories in PATH, functions, aliases... I don't think any sane distro adds "." to PATH by default. I do use command line, and I do add "$HOME/bin:." to PATH, but for my regular user only, never for root, and at the very end of PATH. As paranoid as I am, I think it is OK security-wise because any resulting damage will be limited to what a regular user can do. I've never been bitten yet, but that's because I don't name files "test" and I use full paths in scripts. ;-) -- Oleg Goldshmidt | [EMAIL PROTECTED] = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Indeed a quick grep of scripts in /usr/bin shows most reset the path. I was refering to my own ~/bin scripts and shell aliases where I'm too lazy to do it.

You are right - but once you set the $PATH you can relay on it and use "relative" program names. Or what many (more "robust") scripts do is to lookup the individual programs and set a script variable for each one of them (e.g. "$AWK = lookup(awk)" then use $AWK everywhere in the script). As for laziness - it might cause you a headache one day when your environment changes or you want to copy it over to somewhere else, better maintain it now. > On a second thought, having '.' in the *end* of the path is > almost safe.

Your CGI script is trying to open a file (named "tmpfile") and it does not have permission to do so. This is most likely because the Apache server runs (as it should be) as the user "nobody" that has no write permissions anywhere on the system for security reasons. There are many ways to "solve" this situation, most of them (like changing the user the Apache server runs as or giving "nobody" blind permissions to write anywhere in the CGI directory) are wrong. I think you need to get a good book on CGI scripts.

Talking about "Graphics speed" is meaningless. The speed depends on what you actually do: If you want to draw random pixels, svgalib is probably faster, since it lets you write directly to video memory without context switch, or even function call overhead. If you render images to memory and want to copy them to video memory, both svgalib and X will do it in the same speed (video ram or PCI/AGP is the bottleneck). X might have the advantage here of doing the copy with DMA, allowing the CPU to do something else meanwhile. Svgalib is usually easier to program, but again, it depends on what you want to do. In addition to Xlib and svgalib, you might also check DGA, GGI, Allegro, directfb. -- Matan Ziv-Av.

hi Josh, if the script is trying to write or create a file make sure that the directory is owned by the same user and/or group that apache is running. to see whats the user that apache is using look at /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf if the directory where the script is trying to write a file is /var/www/html/tmp do: ls -l /var/www/html/ make sure that it is owned by the user that is running apache, i.e.: chown apache.apache /var/www/html/ chmod g+w chmod u+w or chown root.apache /var/www/html/ chmod g+w chmod u+w yours, Meir.

I myself would go bltting a 2D image using OpenGL. Assuming of course you actually need fast block transfers, which I'm almost sure you don't.

What I pointed was bad *habbit* used by a person (computers don't have habbits yet ;-) Even if we assume there is no security issue with home system (and some replies refuted this), the same user may later administer a multiuser Linux server.

This was the case I was answering about. - I used the opportunity to warn about the dangers to root because I see in many places administrators which are unaware about it. Happily, Daniel replied that he doesn't put '.' in path on his root account, so at least he is immune to the second issue (but not the first) You'll be amazed how many times people name a script/program without being aware it is used by someone.

OpenGL (as was mentioned by others) is a *standard library* for 3D rendering, the guy was looking for: 1. fast, direct hardware access (not OpenGL's main thing) 2. 2D OpenGL has nothing to do with either. it can interface with DRI, but its main function is to standardize the manipulation of 3D graphics, in theory, do it fast as well. for instance, mplayer, xine and the rest can use x11 (xlib), xinerama, XV and other extensions, I have yet to see a media player try to use OpenGL for 2D rendering or acceleration. now Mr. (or Ms.?) Shamir wants to do Fractals, which are heavy in CPU time or even FPU time. the speed of hardware access is actually negligable.
