<0> -n disables dns resolution, which is useless anyhow
<0> in fact if you're sniffing traffic, resolving can reveal that you're sniffing
<0> you can find that out yourself if you have control over your network and dns server
<1> so i could pull off mtrg without useing the freebsd as my main router?
<0> mrtg?
<0> sorry lost you
<1> mtrg, network/bandwith monitor with pretty html output
<0> sorry I only know mrtg which does similar
<0> hrmm my wifi cards it says here have 80 feet range at 11 Mbps
<0> in a closed office environment
<0> so when I be flooding/jamming that's how far it goes..
<0> I'm sure it takes the entire intersection where I live
<0> I'm da man
<0> in return I get people who like honking their horns when they turn into the intersection
<0> ;)
<2> You jam people who are using their laptops in their cars?
<0> heh
<0> actually most people around here have turned off their AP beacons
<0> I seem to recall a lot more listed AP's before
<0> I'm the only one who broadcasts a beacon and doesn't encrypt with WEP
<2> "come and get some!" (internet connectivity)
<0> yeah until they find out it doesn't work
<0> then they lose interest for half a year
<2> you bastard.
<0> I have fantasies of making it work for them, but in my mental state sometimes it's not a wise idea to let someone use your link
<0> who knows what they'd be doing on your behalf is my take on it..
<0> I wish I wouldn't care though...
<0> maybe one day when death is right around the corner I'll open it up
<2> How do internet cafes and the like sleep?
<2> Oh, that's right, they don't... being open 24/7 and serving coffee.
<0> ooh it's raining..
<0> spuug: that's different, in some countries you have to leave your ID card with them when you use Internet
<0> also they may have cameras
<0> and they will sniff you if they like
<0> keep a record of where you go
<2> That's why you always use ssh or an ssh tunnel.
<0> uhm.. I plugged my laptop into this internet cafe in toronto once and the router was snmp trapping the web sites where people proxied through them..
<0> it was right near the gay area, so you'd see websites such as "gaylove.com" or something..
<0> it's rather uninteresting what websites people go to in an internet cafe
<0> interesting was that they were sniffing though
<2> Like the dogs they were.
<0> it's uhm sorta disappointing that wifi cards supposedly overlap channels
<0> as a consumer you'd sorta feel disappointed of being told there is 11 channels but only 3 of them really work
<0> is there a minimum limit in dhcp leases?
<0> or can you set it to 1 second?
<0> if I had it low then people who connect to this AP would be logged on how long they really were on here
<0> without me needing to sniff/log/firewall them
<3> hey, how can i discover what is my network ip in mandriva shell ?
<0> amia: there is a series of steps
<0> amia: what's your PATH environment variable? you do that with echo $PATH
<0> ok I'm gonna test this dhcp change
<3> is there a way to resize partition without reinstall mandriva 2006? the install gave to my system hd 2gb and i want to add some more (i got 160gb hd)
<2> I think you can use Partition Magic to resize ext2 partitions now.
<3> i got linux os only..
<2> Partition Magic boots from floppy.
<4> yeah
<4> even ext3
<4> boot partitionmagic (tm) from floppies
<3> ummm
<3> there is a free version for linux?
<4> No
<4> PartitionMagic isn't free
<4> PartitionMagic is commercial software
<4> and it's not "for Linux", it's two floppies you boot from
<4> you actually boot DR-DOS 6.0 on the floppies
<2> Partition Magic comes on a CD, which loads under Windows, and from there is used to make the two floppies.
<4> yeah
<4> you have to put the CD in a windows machine
<4> then you install it from the CD
<4> and then it asks you if you want to create "emergency floppies" oo
<4> or something
<2> What you can do, is to leave the 2 GB as a boot partition, and make the remaining 158 GB into usable Linux partitions.
<3> um
<3> but the /var/www webserver is there
<3> i need space!
<2> You might have to copy some things to the new filesystem, and mount the new filesystem on /var/www
<2> So to the webserver, it looks the same.
<0> oh cool I totally forgot about amia, she forgot about my question to her as well, so it's mutual
<0> it's nice that in dhcpd you can set the lease time on a per-host basis
<2> Yeah.
<0> so it won't be filling up my logs
<0> well time to switch off the other computer, it's done its purpose
<2> How does one convince dhcpd not to exit immediately, when there are no other nodes on the network as the interface it's running on?
<0> somehow I'm having trouble parsing that spuug
<0> my dhcpd doesn't exit, I run it on one interface, and if I want another interface being used I run another instance of it with another config file..
<0> ?? Is 0:00.00 /usr/sbin/dhcpd -c /etc/dhcpd-2.conf -l /var/db/dhcpd-2.leases xl0
<0> 5820 ?? Is 0:00.19 /usr/sbin/dhcpd wi0
<0> like that..
<2> Try it with the network cable unplugged from xl0. :-)
<0> it is unplugged ;)
<0> I unplugged it because I had some problems with screen(1)
<2> Hmm...
<0> the screen on the laptop opened a screen on the other host that was only connected through serial console at 9600 bps
<2> I have an rl1 connected directly to another machine, which is usually switched off.
<0> kinda hard to explain and it makes no sense of how things should really work..
<0> heh, nice I have an rl1 as well!
<0> it's my pppoe link
<0> I moved it from rl0 to rl1 because rl0 was behaving weird
<2> I'd like to run dhcpd on rl1, so that when I switch the other machine on, it gets given an ipaddr.
<5> AmiA: look at gnu parted (iirc)
<2> But I find that "dhcpd rl1" exits immediately.
<0> spuug: let me try on rl0 there is nothing on it..
<0> does your rl1 have an IP address on it?
<2> Yes, it's 192.168.1.1
<5> AmiA: parted is free software and it supports resizing ext2/3 partitions... see http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/
<0> cool, I'm not using that IP range currently so I will test on that..
<2> "dhcpd rl1" works fine (i.e. does not exit) if the other machine is switched on first.
<0> spuug: works for me
<0> on rl0
<0> I had a problem with dhcpd exiting right away when the netmasks didn't match up exactly
<0> in the .conf file
<0> it's gotta match with the IP/netmask on the interface, and if the CIDR is de-ranged then it'll exit like that
<0> 18510 ?? Is 0:00.00 /usr/sbin/dhcpd -c /etc/dhcpd-3.conf -l /var/db/dhcpd-3.leases rl0
<0> see
<0> wanna see my config? or the ifconfig?
<2> sure, I suppose it can't hurt.

<0> }
<0> the mac address can be tracked back to a store in canada if you care...
<0> I bought these rl ethernet cards there
<2> It's okay.
<0> in the dhcpd.conf I mistook .0.1 with 1.1, that's all but it worked despite
<2> For now, I'm just using a static address, and it works fine... but then when friends come over and want to put their laptops on the 192.168.1.x network, I have to run dhcpd manually for them.
<0> maybe it's not configured to start up automatically at boot?
<2> Oh, it is.
<0> the rc.conf has a line for that, for the dhcpd-2 I have an added record to rc.local
<0> let me dig up the error message it had when I had a netmask issue... hold on..
<2> thanks.
