Broken /proc?

Last week I did an 'apt-get update' of a debain unstable and now I've noticed that my /proc fs is broke. It appears to be mounted correctly and all the entries show up if you do a 'ls' but if you actually try to look at an entry its just blank. Fex: # cat /proc/interrupts # That's it no outp

FIXED Printing problems - hostname bad

Dennis and Cameron, thanks a lot for your suggestions. After unsuccessfully trying several configurations for the /etc/hosts file, I restored an old backup version. That version worked like a charm and fixed all the localhost and printing problems I was having. The backup seemed to have been g

You need to specify a umask of 0222 in your fstab to get executable and read access, ie: /dev/hda1 /winntfsumask=0222 0 0 It's in the mount man page or something - I can'r remember offhand! Stan -Original Message- From: Curtis Vaughan [mailto:[EMAIL PR

NTFS partition access

I am currently having problems figuring out how to gain access to my NTFS partition. If I log on as root there are no problems. I also figured out that if change the ownership of my NTFS mount (i.e., /win) to myself, then I am able to mount the partition logged on as myself (prior to that I ha

Re: hardware quote comments?

Since you're (Faheem) at UNC, you might even just check out the IBM deals here. For $2000 you can get a 2ghz IBM desktop, including a nice monitor and 512M RAM; it's $89 to add another 512M. The hard drive is IDE (60GB) but otherwise largely comparable to your listing. I've had debian running on th

ip forwarding under 2.2.17

I have a firewall with two network cards running Sid with kernel 2.2.17. I have the following rule: /usr/sbin/ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L $IP_REAL 22 -R $MAGNETO 22 And it works fine. IP_REAL is the dhcp granted IP from my ISP, MAGNETO is the ssh server behind the firewall, and MYSTIQUE is the

hardware quote comments?

Dear People, I got the following quote for a computer (now quite old). I am thinking of going with this, with the modification that I'll be using the Microsoft Intellimouse Explorer instead of the Logitech. The price is probably quite a bit more than I would pay if I was to build it myself but t
