<0> maybe for bussines, not for making things better
<1> wouldnt improving other things make making things better easier ?
<2> Woohoo!
<1> anything nice ?
<2> 5 hours later, I have a news server.
<3> heh
<1> oh?
<1> which one?
<2> It's private - for Castalia beta testers. Getting p***word authentication and stuff working was kind of a PITA
<1> no thats' not what I meant
<1> what software
<2> Oh
<2> inn2
<1> heh
<1> cool
<2> On ubuntu
<1> yeah.
<1> easy
<2> Yeah, it's pretty cool once you figure out how to get it working.
<1> hehe
<1> I know.
<2> But it was pretty rough getting started.
<1> make sure you don't install the cron task
<1> for expiring
<1> and you disable all the incoming servers
<1> and outgoing ones
<4> <P-J> Anyone know of a boot floppy or similar that allows booting from USB cd-drive if the BIOS doesn't support it?
<2> Today's goal was to get all the infrastructure set up to start the testing later this week... ftp, bug tracker, newsgroups, etc...
<2> ki9a: Yeah, all done.
<1> ah oke
<1> you used an auth script?
<1> or just reader.conf ?
<0> heh, thats what i wanted too, ans usb routines from boot level :/
<3> cat: haha nice
<2> readers.conf lets you set an auth mechanism.
<1> right
<4> Blade^ ?
<3> d3: u miss his point
<0> i know
<0> as always
<1> I use a freepascal program that talks to another thing to actually authenticate
<1> and return which newsgroups should be allowed
<1> the problem for us was that each user has a different set of newsgroups
<1> and the same server also does public newsgrousp
<1> ah well.
<1> it works.
<2> Yup
<1> I used to use Kylix for that script
<1> but given that freepascal is way easier to handle
<1> I switched to that.
<2> But readers.conf lets you set up different groups with access to different newsgroups based on authentication.
<1> yes.
<2> So it's pretty flexible.
<2> You could have one auth/access group per user if you wanted, but that'd be a lot of maintenance.
<1> although it wasn't as flexible when I first used it
<1> they expanded it
<1> in 2.4
<1> it's pretty cool though
<1> did you compile it with perl support ?
<2> I didn't compile it. I apt-get inn2'd it. :)
<1> hehe
<1> suse didn't have a package for it in 2003 ;)
<1> or 2002
<1> there was an issue we had in 2005 or so. When some guy impersonated RO personel to post crap replies
<2> Next question... how can one retrieve all the DNS records for a given domain from a nameserver?
<1> unless it's configured to give it
<1> you can't.
<2> ok
<1> on a linux box
<1> try ls domain.com
<1> (in nslookup)
<1> windows box I mean.
<1> make sure you do server <nameserver>
<1> first
<5> when did Code_Monk go bye bye?
<1> seen code_monk
<2> hmm
<6> ki9a, Code_Monk (BinBan@71.83.120.136) was last seen quitting #delphi 9 hours 3 minutes ago (08.01. 14:10) stating "Ping timeout: 186 seconds" after spending 1 day 12 hours 32 minutes there.
<5> damn
<1> anyway after the impersonation, I wrote a perl script that would refuse to allow () and [] in the name field unless you were authneticated.
<5> sometime in the nigh
<5> t
<2> Doesn't look like it will work... I'll have to contact the admin and get the info I guess
<1> it returned an error?
<1> it's supposed to be locked down
<1> so that's generally good
<2> Yeah, said it can't list. No big deal, just means I have to send an email and wait for someone to reply. :P
<1> :)
<1> you hosting nntp home ?
<1> at*
<2> No, it's at my colo. But one of my domains is still hosted by someone else, and I'd like to move it over.
<1> ah
<1> did you disable ssh authnetication by p***word?
<1> and disabled ftp?
<2> ftp is enabled - I want it enabled. ssh is disabled by the firewall.
<1> how do you get?
<1> get in
<1> shell wise
<2> To which machine?
<1> you said it was hosted somewhere right ?
<2> Are we talking about the NNTP box or the DNS box?
<2> Oh... you said nntp. Sorry.
<2> Yeah, the nntp box is in my office.
<1> your own.
<2> To shell into it, I flip the KVM.
<1> ah oke
<1> well I thought it was hosted somewhere :)
<2> My public newsgroups are on a leased server from llix.net, along with the web sites.
<1> they do the admining?
<2> No, I do, but it's a win2k3 box.
<1> ah oke
<2> Private newsgroups, ftp, and bug tracker are on the ubuntu box in my office.
<1> ah yeh.
<2> And while my connection isn't the fastest, it's fast enough.
<1> well you gotta be careful with servers anyway
<2> Castalia downloads are on the order of 3-4MB. The 768 upload rate is good enough for that.
<1> nntp does not take that much
<1> except for when they're downloading history.
<2> No, and with only a handful of people, it's not gonna be terribly taxing on the ftp or http either
<1> intersting.
<1> the dollar became worth a tiny bit more
<1> 1.30
<2> That's good.
<2> About time it actually appreciated.
<1> it's still worth way less than the dollar.
<1> euro
<1> of course
<1> (the 1.30 is what you have to pay to get 1 euro)
<2> Right
<1> was 1.33 a week ago or so
<2> but anything to stop the downward drift of the dollar is good.
<7> great time to buy imported stuff
<8> When I print using printer.canvas, where do I set the page height?
<0> in your @$$
<9> oh, my lv calculator is broken :(
<9> ahh, there is banking freeze in effect
<2> http://www.twodesk.com still available for everyone?
<3> aye
<2> Excellent.
<10> "Jan 1, 2006 - Welcome to the all new TwoDesk"
<11> Pa! Ma! I'm home!
<11> can someone have a peek here:
<11> http://kb.mozillazine.org/Accessibility.usetexttospeech
<11> What do you make of the part that says "additional event handlers are attached to windows for an access proxy to accommodate the external software."
<11> Whats that in English :)
<12> hey, i'm trying to read crypted ini file. the ini file is modified, and so createini raises exception.
<12> i'm doing this try si:=TSecurityIni.Create('.\' + filename,programkey,p***wordkey); except Application.Terminate; end;
<12> but it doesn't work :(
<9> doesnt terminates?
<9> just kidding tho ;)
<12> hmm... i have to add try..except to each command like si.readbool, si.readstring.. si.free and so on...
