<0> gah! my desktop has started ignoring /etc/hosts, the permissions are fine but its just not looking at the hosts file when I ping etc, any ideas?
<1> operative: check /etc/nsswitch.conf
<2> asg: wait .. i might have pictures!
<1> hehe
<3> anyone know any apache irc channels?
<0> asg:
<1> operative: make sure you have 'hosts: files dns'
<0> hosts: files, dns
<1> dr1v3r: #apache
<2> asg: wait .. i upload!
<0> yeah, thats set
<3> damn that didnt come up in the search haha
<3> tx asg
<1> dr1v3r: you're welcome
<1> operative: hmmmm. When you say 'desktop' what do you mean in this case?
<0> just my every day deb box, monitor kb attached etc, one network out



<0> debian stable
<4> how can I make my init check for fs errors and run the right fsck every time? is there a init script?
<5> asg: What about this one: "Possible LPD worm installed" It appears right before that packet-sniffing line.
<5> abrotman: It's not my box.
<6> jjazz: google for it - iirc it's a known false positive
<2> it is
<2> false positives ****
<6> true
<2> like that time with the rash
<1> jjazz: also, you might what to cross check with 'rkhunter'
<6> missed positives are worse though :)
<5> raboof: Ya, I see that it's sometimes a false positive. But how do you *know*?
<2> jjazz: i thik there are like three that with debian .. always happen
<1> jjazz: find out what the LPD worm does and manually verify that it isn't doing that.
<5> abrotman: A friend of mine had a false positive with a rash. Thought he had herpes for about a 8 months... that ****ed.
<5> asg: that's a good idea.
<2> jjazz: ****ed why? because he had to keep his pants on ? :)
<1> jjazz: had your friend not ****ed, a rash would probably not have occurred ;)
<7> Whats the easiest way to extract a source RPM for building in sid?
<7> I'm trying to install xephem 3.7 and i can only find a source RPM
<8> e.t.
<2> man rpm .. there sohuld be a way to extract it
<9> abrotman : is there a quick how-to guide for installing custom kernel in sarge? :)
<10> how do I install a Debian package into a different file system, say, /mnt/gnu?
<4> how can I make my init check for fs errors and run the right fsck every time? is there a init script?
<2> !tell kokkoo about kp
<2> sanmarcos: touch /forcefsck
<5> abrotman: It ****ed because he thought his dating pool had narrowed to girls with herpes. So he dated within this pool for a few months, which was depressing. And then he found out he *didn't* have herpes, and was just glad that he hadn't caught it during the months he spent *only dating people with herpes*.
<1> molin: man dpkg-divert
<5> asg: Ah... I found the cause of the false positive and removed it.
<10> asg: thanks!
<2> jjazz: that's like "Oh **** .. YES! .. uh .. ****" :)
<4> abrotman: thats it? I thought there was an init script
<1> jjazz: cool
<5> abrotman: Exactly.
<2> and my productivity just hit rockbottom wiht that single line :)
<11> Does anyone know where to get support for the BIRD daemon that is not included in Sarge in place of ROUTED?
<2> jjazz: now .. i don't have herpes . but is there a dating service for herpes people?
<11> The BIRD mailing list is useless.
<12> when i reboot, i get MTTR error...what is it means?
<10> asg: so will I have to add every file in the packge to the diversion list?
<5> abrotman: Yes. It's like match.com for people with herpes. It's a really sad place.
<5> theD3viL: What's the specific error?
<2> jjazz: i'm sure it is .. weird
<1> molin: yes. The other option would be to get the src deb and compile it with an alternate --prefix=
<10> asg: okay, thanks. Maybe allowing dpkg -i --prefix=/mnt/gnu would be a good idea?
<5> abrotman: Well, it's like the carnival of damaged goods. It's hard enough to find good people in the world at large. When you narrow your choices to along such an arbitrary axis, it's really hard to find somebody with whom you have anything in common except that you both messed up.
<1> molin: might be worth a try, I forgot about that option
<2> jjazz: i'm sure herpes happens to good looking people too
<10> asg: I don't know if it actually exists, I just thought it would be nice if it did :-)
<1> molin: sadly it doesn't ;)
<10> asg: damn :-)
<1> molin: there may be a better way but I don't know it offhand.
<5> abrotman: It's not about who is good looking. It was about not being able to find people that met his generally high standards.
<5> (and also people who share his interests)
<2> jjazz: oh .. that's even worse :)
<5> abrotman: He kept going out on horrible dates and then being depressed because he thought this was just his lot in life forever.
<2> jjazz: holy crap .. that is pretty bad
<4> how can I make a script in my /etc/init.d start/stop on all rc.X ?



<5> Yeah. Thankfully, the nightmare ended for him.
<13> !nvidia-oneliner
<14> Hi.
<15> Mardus: hi :)
<16> sanmarcos: man update-rc.d
<5> Hmm.. there's a bug filed against chrootkit about this false positive. The solution to this is to look in the lpd worm source and adjust the regex in chkrootkit. I'd like to fix it, but I have no idea how one gets source for the LPD worm. Any ideas?
<14> I could get CUPS working today, and even got testpages, but I can't print from a program. I think there's something to do with permissions.
<4> loxley: thanks
<1> jjazz: google lpd worm source code
<5> Mardus: check the error logs
<15> guys I can't run MIDI files :/ help me please I need it to run SongWrite :(
<17> hello
<5> asg: I did... just get pages about chkrootkit! I thought there might be a repo of harmful stuff with lots of caution tape around it.
<18> hi
<5> (or a website)
<1> jjazz: packetstorm.com may have code
<5> asg: I'll look there. Thanks.
<18> instead of deleting a symlink i deleted by mistake /dev/dsp... is there a way to bring it back ? (Debian 3.1 "sarge", stable)
<13> hi, how do i rebuild the nvidia kenel module?
<1> The_Only`: man MAKEDEV
<13> kernel*
<5> googling "lpd worm" "source code" -chkrootkit turns up 3 results, none of which are useful. I love Google's efficiency.
<17> why is that I am getting email where the FROM: Mohd@xtenbit.com,Hamim@xtenbit.com,Talib@xtenbit.com <--- but xtenbit.com is my domain
<18> asg,
<18> ethereal:/dev# MAKEDEV sound
<18> /sbin/MAKEDEV: don't know how to make device "sound"
<18> ethereal:/dev#
<18> oops
<1> The_Only: MAKEDEV audio
<10> asg: hmm, what did you say about --prefix? Stuff is still getting installed into like /usr/share and stuff
<18> asg, thank you (;
<1> molin: in the source package's debian/rules file?
<10> asg: did you mean the --prefix option of the configure script?
<1> molin: yes
<10> asg: yeah, I added that to the rules file, but I guess all the Debian scripts are putting it into /usr/share
<10> take /usr/share/doc/gnumach/README.Debian
<4> what is the difference between sysv-rc-conf bum and rcconf?
<10> asg: anyway, nevermind, thanks for your help
<1> sanmarcos: rcconf is older, sysv-rc-conf is newer and buggier, nfc regarding bum.
<1> molin: sure. Hope you get it working
<4> asg: I guess Ill giev them all a try
<1> sanmarcos: that's the spirit :)
<4> asg: btw, what is runlevel S?
<19> excuse me, just asking what screen recorder for debian?
<10> asg: thanks again
<1> sanmarcos: man 8 init
<20> is there a way to change a file's modified date from command line?
<21> JMT34L touch
<1> JMT34L: man touch
<20> thx
<14> jjazz: The error logs don't show anything with my username.
<4> asg: thanks, what is the 8 for in the man line?
<1> sanmarcos: the section of the manpage
<1> sanmarcos: man man (for the list of available sections)
<4> sysv-rc-conf is just a little more advanced, bum is a gtk2 UI, hopefully with this I willb e able to clean up my horrible init sequence
<4> what is the difference between klogd and syslogd? (one for kernel and the other for system events ?)
<20> when i log in thru ssh, then do login -f to switch users, for some reason when i log out, my system still shows the user logged in... i have tried slay... any way to manually log a user out?
<4> JMT34L: exit ?
<20> i mean from root
<4> JMT34L: or you could kill its bash procces with pgrep user process
<20> i have used slay... the user has no processes
<20> but who shows them logged in
<4> JMT34L: who ?
<20> yeah who
<4> I mean the command who
<20> yeah so do i
<1> who's on first
<4> what is the problem ?
<20> jesus
<22> this is so dude, where is my car
<1> haven't seen that one yet
<22> JMT34L: slaying them probably deprives them of the opportunity to deregister with who
<20> the problem is, who (the program) shows a user logged in... i have used slay to kill all processes for that user...
<1> JMT34L: who just reads from /var/log/utmp. It probably didn't get updated correctly.
