<0> sil3nt|warri0r, I use bastille-linux's firewall module which makes up iptables rules.
<1> where do i find it ??
<0> google :)
<2> jonez: so does your iptables file drop icmp packets?
<0> I do *not* recommend running all of bastille on fc4 unless you know what you are doing
<0> dberry, I have a rule that does, yes.
<2> then you should be fine
<0> ok
<0> I am gonna install and reboot to latest kernel anyway, but I thought I would ask :)
<3> sil3nt|warri0r: there is also Firestarter GUI ( in extras ) for gnome: http://www.fs-security.com/
<1> its cool
<1> i tried that once
<1> there lots of gui for maikng iptables rules
<1> fwbuilder is another one, its also in fc extras
<4> sil3nt|warri0r: i found linux manpages on http://www.linuxcommand.org/man_pages/, which mentiones they are for FC4.
<4> but, doesn't Red Hat/Fedora provide a webpage dedicated to, say, all manpages included with a FC release?



<1> good
<1> no i guess
<4> that'd be lots better if it was. bummer then
<1> heh, i think thats why tldp like projects exist
<5> sil3nt|warri0r whats the difference from running as a service or as an application?
<1> cant explain sorry
<0> adoniz, typically a "service" will run in the background, whereas an application is attached to a display or a terminal. a service is just a special kind of application, really.
<5> ots of gui for maikng iptables rules
<5> [00:04] <1> fwbuilder is another one, its also in fc extras
<5> [00:05] <4> sil3nt|warri0r: i found linux manpages on http://www.linuxcommand.org/man_pages/, which mentiones they are for FC4.
<5> [00:05] <4> but, doesn't Red Hat/Fedora provide a webpage dedicated to, say, all manpages included with a FC release?
<5> [00:05] <1> good
<5> sorry
<4> freebsd.org provides manpages for lots of unices, including some Linux distribution, including Red Hat up to 9.0. no mention of Fedora though
<1> hmm
<0> I wish I had time for another project and I would write something that takes the manpage rpm and converts them to html and puts them on my website.
<1> there is a apps which can show u man pages in gui and also u can edit them or develop them
<1> i forget the name
<6> hello
<6> what version of kde comes with fedora 4
<1> 3.4.0 ?
<7> it depends
<8> julii: on the original cds or as update?
<8> julii: up to 3.5.1-0.1
<6> on the cds
<7> 3.4.0-1
<9> I am trying to get ndiswrapper (for wireless internet) and I did make and make install.. next step says to type ndiswrapper -l and I get "command not found"
<9> Actually I used find and found it.. and could do /etc/sbin
<6> i am wondering if i should create a partition to store my own data
<6> or should i use on big partition
<10> julii: keeping /home on its own partition is nice for upgrades.
<6> ok
<4> be back in 15-20 minutes
<6> about how big should i make the / partition
<6> i have a 120GB
<6> hard disk
<10> ooh, that depends. :-P
<10> what are you going to use it for?
<6> i am going to use it for software development: java,c,c++,php,perl,etc..
<10> julii: more than 20GB should be unnecessary. You should be able to get a reasonable install in 2.5GB and some room for logs, extra software etc.
<6> and also as a file server
<10> julii: ah. a lot of files?
<6> yeah
<6> i ws thinking of making / partition to be about 15 or 20GB
<10> not sure what's the accepted practice for files servers. myself? i use /home for my home server
<6> ok
<6> is 15GB enough for thr / partition
<11> julii: doesnt that depend on what you plan to keep in / ?
<11> julii: your whole filesystem could be /
<11> julii: is / going to include /var is it going to include /svr is it going to include /usr? is it going to include /usr/local? is it going to include /home?
<11> julii: /var can get arbitrarily large depending on what you plan to store in it.. just like /home
<9> Strange, I did 'chown -hR m3lt:m3lt /home/m3lt/' as root, but in console (logged in as m3lt) when I run 'dcopserver' it says It can not create file /home/m3lt.DCOPserver.....' Permission Denied
<12> sup apc
<9> I am super confused..
<9> I cant login as root anymore.. p***word changed.. I know I am entering it right..
<9> Would think hacked or what not.. but its not even connected to internet yet (that is what im trying to get set up)
<9> Any ideas?
<10> m3ltd0wn123: capslock?
<9> nope
<12> heh
<12> u sure



<9> positive
<13> you surely positive
<9> 100%
<13> or positively sure
<9> i am 100%
<13> ok just checking ;-)
<9> i have one acct logged in
<9> as root stil
<9> tty1
<13> m3ltd0wn123, so just type p***wd and reset it
<9> aha
<9> i was expecting Insert Old P***word
<9> phew
<9> WHat
<9> I did that as root, then went to another acct and did su root and entered it.. no luck
<9> I am very confused here
<14> a delayed reaction -- i just noticed that the last KDE update fixed what the previous one broke in konqueror: "Extract" context menu for .RAR's works again (not just for .R##'s)
<13> hmm cant help ya there, you sure your keyboard doesnt have a sticky key or something?
<9> was able to enter it fine in p***wd
<6> and the saga begins
<13> what if you just use "su -" instead of "su root"?
<9> same
<14> m3ltd0wn123, reboot in singleuser mode and set a new p***
<15> hello, is there someone here that uses router + static ip?
<9> I will try
<9> but I might not be able to relogin as root..
<16> mm2000: yes
<15> moni40tng: ok, cant you explain how i can fix it?
<16> mm2000: please, explain what you cannot do?
<12> mm2000: yes
<12> mm2000: whats the problem
<15> mm2000: I am using lan for the computer i want to get static ip for. I have done some portforwarding in the router, so its good if i can get the same IP every time i start the network.
<15> The problem is: How do I do it?
<15> Using FC2 btw.
<12> mm2000: easy
<12> u run x?
<15> Also... I'd rather NOT use the network-conf tool
<12> o
<12> ifconfig ?
<15> It should be done in /etc/network-scripts/ifcfg-eft0, right?
<16> mm2000: so your router has static external ip, and your FC2 is behind that router. You what your FC2 to have static ip?
<17> is there command to clear contents of a time but retains to file to 0 size ?
<12> no he wants his ip for the router/network to stay the same
<12> that way he doesnt have to change his ports evertime
<15> moni40tng: No, my router has dynamic ip. It then gives other dynomic ips fore every computer connectet to it.
<12> on the router that is
<18> Where does fedora go and store the hostname?
<14> xwin, touch can change time, and /dev/null is your friend for truncating
<16> mm2000: then don't use dhcp.
<12> mm2000: priv msg k
<18> Warning: Where is the systems hostname stored?
<15> Sometime i get 192.168.1.2, sometimes 192..168.1.4
<14> mm2000, your router gets it's external WAN address from your ISP via DHCP, and then hands out NAT'd LAN addresses via it's own DHCP, but you can use static if you want to.
<6> is there any uptodate version of kde and gnome out as yet
<16> mm2000: specify IPADDR=192.168.0.2 for your computer
<15> did that
<15> i get that ip, but no internetconnection
<14> mm2000, just pick a static IP (I've chosen 192.168.1.10), and use 192.168.1.1 (***uming that's your router addy) as the gateway
<16> mm2000: ok, then you have static ip.
<18> I will tell you where. /etc/sysconfig/network thats where.
<12> heh
<17> zcat, how do you use that /dev/null again?
<14> xwin, cat /dev/null > wheredidmydatago.txt
<4> re
<14> xwin, depending on distro the shortcut is: > truncateme
<14> (not distro, but shell)
<16> xwin: or < /dev/null >! truncateme
<17> zcat, I wanna reset LimeWire log, that's my objective....
<17> I was using a RDBMS OS called Advanced Pick, it has 'clearfile' to do it.
<18> :|D
<14> I wrote a stupid-simple konqueror extension for truncating files last summer: http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=26213
<16> xwin: perhaps use logrotate instead?
<17> thanks all...
<17> me gotta go
