<0> then reboot and cross your fingers and pray it comes back up
<1> it's true#!#~!@^%@
<0> Zippy2: do what yer nick says.....
<2> Hi all, I'm effectively a Linux newbie. I cannot figure out how to get my packages to install correctly. I keep getting an error: Transaction failed: Invalid host component: "package-name.rpm". I have tried several different packages and they all give me the same error. I can't find anything about it on Google or Yahoo.
<2> I'm using openSUSE 10.2.
<2> Can anyone point me in the right direction?
<3> what comman are you using to install?
<2> I'm using the supplied package installer
<2> Will running via the command line give me better information about the error?
<3> rpm -ivh pacakgename.rpm
<3> s/cak/ack/
<0> arno: wrong
<2> What do you mean by s/cak/ack
<0> arno: rpm -Uvh is better
<3> ya, i know :)
<0> lcfcjoe: easiest way is to use yast
<2> I have been using YaST.
<0> lcfcjoe: point the installation medium to ftp.suse.com or local mirror
<0> or opensuse.com or wherever repository ya want to use
<0> make sure to include the full file path
<2> Ok. I'll go work with that.
<2> Thank you
<0> invalid host component suggest ya got something wrong
<0> probably the file path
<2> It's directly off of the CD that I downloaded yesterday.
<0> well the cd will only have so much
<0> better to point to the online site....
<2> Ok, well, I want to try out the FTP idea.
<2> Yeah. Thanks again.
<0> change the installation medium to an ftp site
<2> (Probably be back here later :-) )
<0> i'll probably be asleep
<2> Hey, just came back to let you know:
<2> I was curious about running it from the command line, so I read the man page and tried it. Worked perfectly.
<2> I don't know why YaST had a problem with it.
<2> Thanks again.
<0> file path probably... something was messed anyway
<4> hw can I list chanel (in Irssi) which r connected with some topic?
<4> precisly I want limited command LIST
<5> How do I block an IP address completely from connecting the computer?
<4> PopeyeOil: use ACL list, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Access_control_list
<6> iptables -A INPUT -s ip -j DROP
<6> it will disappear on boot tho
<7> use -I INPUT
<7> -A appends to the rule list and order of rules IS importnat as the first iptables rule a packet matches end further processing of the packet as defined by the target
<7> -I inserts the rule at the top of the list
<8> hey
<8> what's the command to check permissions of a directory?
<8> nm
<8> hm
<8> what permissions should i set to make a publicly accessible folder? for a web folder.. +r didn't do it :/
<7> they're called directories
<7> and publicly accessible by what specifically
<8> er, my bad, i said directory the first time :)
<8> well
<8> I want it to be accessible to anyone over the web, like www.myserver.com/~user/
<7> like or exactly?
<7> be painfully specific
<8> exactly except that's not the domain or username
<7> define what exactly you're trying to achieve
<7> so users public_html directories?
<8> yep, but I think it's called "www" under the user's home dir on the linux machine. i created www and tried going to www.myserver.com/~user and it said permission denied
<7> 711 on /home/$USER and 711 on /home/$USER/www
<7> check apache logs to confirm errors
<8> hm.. I did chmod 711 /home/$USER and chmod 711 on /home/$USER/www, but I still get permission denied.. don't think I have access to check the apache logs
<7> dont have access? huh? then how do you know users have their own web dirs?
<8> I think I've seen others with sites running on the server..
<8> making a www dir works, except the permissions. like if I touch index.html, it'll say I don't have permission to access the index.html (in a web browser)
<7> ok slow down. talk to the admin and KNOW, dont think. ask if user web dirs are supported, and what is the specific directory in $HOME to be used
<7> since you're apparently not the admin, there's nothing we can do
<8> ohh hmm, actually
<8> i found the documentation on creating a web dir :/ it said to mkdir ~/www, chmod 711 ~, chmod 644 ~/www, name the home page index.html, then chmod 755 ~/www/index.html. but after doing chmod 711 ~, I can't cd to www..gives me permission denied..
<9> chmod 644 www should be enough
<8> what is the ~?
<7> ummm
<9> the rest of the directory tree
<7> 644 on a dir will fail.
<9> oh
<7> ~ denotes $HOME
<9> yeah home
<8> ahh
<8> how is that i don't have permission to the directory myself anymore? :/
<8> s/to/to access
<7> <7> 644 on a dir will fail.
<7> 755 or 711 ~/www
<7> 755 ~/www/index.html
<7> errr
<7> 644 ~/www/index.html
<8> ok perfect, thanks allot
<8> s/allot/a lot :)
<7> did that work?
<8> yep :)
<7> good to go

<11> hello all
<11> i'm trying to reinstall lilo (mbr corrupted) but when i use a rescue disk and mount the linux partition i have nothing in /proc or /boot, what gives?
<12> /proc doesn't really exist and /boot could be in another partition
<11> i only have / and swap
<12> that's all you need if you need to reinstall lilo
<11> but it's looking for files in /boot
<11> boot.b, for one
<7> thats not lilo.
<7> thats grub.
<11> hmm
<7> and since you didnt mount the disk at /, obviously /boot or /proc wont exist.
<11> i mount it in /blah and /blah/boot contains nothing
<11> originally i had lilo installed, i still have a lilo.conf in /blah/etc
<11> the rescue disk's lilo is looking for boot.b, guess i need a different boot disk?
<7> dunno, I Just Say No To lilo(R)
<7> I'm betting lilo man page has mention of a chroot option
<11> alright, gonna try a different boot disk
<11> thanks for the help
<11> adios
<13> Qwell: !
<14> eww
<14> you again
<13> you can't hide
<1> Master, where did you go? I can't see you.
<14> howto: damn straight
<15> hi all

<2> Linux newbie here. Running openSUSE 10.2 with Asus P5B-E motherboard, onboard Attansic L1 Gigabit ethernet card. I have downloaded/compiled/installed/modprobe-d the driver, and it shows up underlsmod. However, when I run ifconfig, it only shows the loopback interface, no eth0.
<2> How do I configure things to get ethernet working?
<7> doesnt suse have some gui network config?
<15> yes it does
<2> Yes, I used that as well, but when it was done "configuring", the tray icon tells me "No network devices detected"
<2> Even though I specifically set up the information on the network card through the GUI.
<2> I tried both the "NetworkManager" and the "Tranditional (ifup)" methods, both yield the same results.
<16> hola
<7> hey
<2> Can anyone explain why the eth0 interface wouldn't be up after installing the driver for the network card?
<17> when i used linux 10 years ago i had to do ifconfig eth0 up
