IIRC, cookies are usually only set by scripts. There might be an exception to this, check the docs on the modules you have installed. The apache config file is centralized, but I've never heard of anything in there related to cookies (I've messed with a couple configs, but only for small servers with mod_php installed -- and the only place I've ever dealt with a cookie is in a script).

[techtalk] umm well, one question solved :-)
Ahoy, Thanks Glen, I installed the rhl 6.2 kernel (2.2.14-5.0) and VOILA my scsi issue disappeared. That was my first new kernel too, btw... All I can say is "awesome" :-) (Still wondering if q2 is available for freebsd though :-) Thanks, Walt -~ Anthony's Law of the Workshop: Any tool when dropped, will roll into the least accessible corner of the workshop.

If you're using your system to connect to the internet, you might want to give yourself a little more practice at installing kernels by getting the latest one (2.2.16-3). Redhat sent an advisory about a security bug involving setuid in all kernels before 2.2.15. The new kernel also fixes a SCSI error handling problem. You can download the latest kernel at i386: ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.2/i386/kernel-2.2.16-3.i386.rpm ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.2/i386/kernel-headers-2.2.16-3.i386.rpm ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.2/i386/kernel-source-2.2.16-3.i386.rpm ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.2/i386/kernel-doc-2.2.16-3.i386.rpm ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.2/i386/kernel-utils-2.2.16-3.i386.rpm ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.2/i386/kernel-smp-2.2.16-3.i386.rpm ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.2/i386/kernel-BOOT-2.2.16-3.i386.rpm ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.2/i386/kernel-pcmcia-cs-2.2.16-3.i386.rpm ftp://updates.redhat.com/6.2/i386/kernel-ibcs-2.2.16-3.i386.rpm (After all, practice makes perfect. ;->) Glen Strom [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ techtalk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linux.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/techtalk

Hi,
You can log usage of cookies with 'CustomLog' directive. (It is in
mod_custom_log, which should be installed by default.) For example,
in Apache's config file, you can put like:
CustomLog /var/log/apache_cookie_log "%{Set-Cookie}o %r %t"
Within {} for %o format, you can set any HTTP reply elements.
But, this only logs if cookie is set within HTTP header (e.g. via CGI
script or module like mod_usertrack). You can set cookie with
tag like:
I think that this is not common way, so you should be able to log
most of cookie activity via 'CustomLog'.
Hope this helps,
:eito

What's the point of dling all of these header files and stuff if you can just dl a tarball from kernel.org and do a compilation that way and besides, it's funner that way.

[techtalk] RPM
Hello all, I downloaded a package, and I think i didn't uninstall it properly. I want to reinstall it now, but for some reason whenever I try to use rpm, I'm told that the package is installed. But when I do a rpm -q, it says it's not installed. huh? I'm confused. Can someone shed some light on this? Thanks!

This way, if the package really is uninstalled, then the database will recognise it. However, I thought rpm -q used the database to determine if it was installed. The nice thing is that a random rpm --rebuilddb will not harm your system, so the worst that can happen is nothing will change.
