<0> hi i am trying to build an internal network with a DNS, for educational purposes. I would like to know what is a zone?
<1> a zone is one of either a domain or a subnet, depending on whether you're talking forward or reverse dns
<1> there's a dns howto at tldp.org
<0> Fiver: I dont have any forwarders, can i leave the Forwarders section in named.conf blank?
<2> mgg: a ''zone'' in DNS has a very technical meaning...
<2> mgg: usually it is a domain and all subdomains that are not delegated.
<2> mgg: sample zone file with discussion here: http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxDNSZones.html
<2> mgg: note tha a ''zone file'' is mostly the written embodyment of a zone. Not quite the same thing though, because a zone file usually contains ''glue'' that is not part of the zone that it describes.
<3> hi
<3> how can i find out if a package is installed on a debian server?
<4> dpkg -l package_name
<3> is there something like rpm -q package for debian
<3> thanks
<4> If it begins 'ii', that means that it's installed.
<3> and the equal of: yum search package?
<4> apt-cache search package



<4> The equivalent of >>> yum install package <<< is >>> apt-get install package
<3> thank you
<2> i-rACEr: 'dpkg --status ...'
<3> it makes more sense than dpkg -l :)
<5> anyone here go to university or high school that blocks IRC via port 6667
<3> and if i have a deb package, how do i install it?
<5> ?
<3> from the hard drive
<5> trying to figure out how to get around that restriction without getting caught.
<6> unix_infidel, do it at home instead.
<7> unix_infidel Er, you're here now, aren't you? ;-)
<4> What university blocks IRC? O.o
<5> i'm at home.
<6> gdb, no, its his holographic figment of your imagination. :)
<5> american universities.
<5> they allow ssh, but i'd much rather not have to ssh into my home box to irssi.
<7> Which university?
<5> in texas.
<7> I'm going to be evasive in my answer then.
<6> there is only 1 in texas?
<7> "use some software to get around it"
<5> rawr.
<7> "like, computer software"
<7> "on teh in ur pc"
<7> I wonder how the effort to run Linux on an Intel Mac is going.
<5> a scrolling kiddo, we dont have enough of those on freenode already.
<7> unix_infidel: heh, piss off
<7> ;-)
<7> "I'm a n00b who can't get around a simple port block so I can hang out on IRC while at school. Pls hold my hand."
<8> unix_infidel: It's called a psybnc. Set one up on your home system on a different port, and then use it. SImple.
<9> gdb: linux runs on macs. darn well on older ones. a g5, not so good.
<10> I have a small issue
<9> sweet
<7> Codename_V: Yeah, I've seen it on m68k machines and PPC machines. I was curious if someone had gotten it working on the Intel ones. There's some challenge going around to get XP to boot on one that's not been successful yet.
<10> utmp is not getting cleaned up after I run login in a shell, how can I trigger it to be cleaned up ?
<9> gdb: ah, missed that intel part somehow. yeah, I wouldn't know, but I'd imagine it works better than on the g5s
<9> or if not not, quite soon.
<7> Codename_V: You have some experience with Linux on G5? And it's not been a good one?
<7> Codename_V: I understand Linus uses a G5, I'd think support would be fairly decent.
<9> gdb: I've tried about 3 or 4 distros. they all crash pretty nicely on my imac.
<4> Trying to find an irc server that does ssl is another option...
<10> kittenbot, yes
<10> kittenbot, there are a few ipv6 only servers for freenode
<4> Yep, it does -- and I've found the IPv6 servers :) >>> irc.ipv6.freenode.org
<10> so how can I cause utmp to get cleaned up after I log in at a pts ?
<6> define cleaned up.
<10> ater I type exit and the pts closes, the user is still listed by who
<6> weird
<10> it's 'cause login isn't supposed to clean up utmp
<10> but I don't know what to use that WILL clean it up
<6> what are you doing exactly?
<11> I just installed 2.6.15 kernel and for somereason I'm getting an issue with mounting ntfs partition
<11> in fstab
<11> stating ntfs is not a known filesystem
<10> hugenerd, I'm running login in an aterm :)
<6> why?
<10> hugenerd, 'cause it's the only way to accomplish the monitoring setup I need on the PC in question



<12> can anyone help me connect cups to a remote windows machine please?
<10> pillage, it's easy :)
<12> sorry, I mean to a printer on a remote windows machine
<10> pillage, no clue
<12> I'm trying to print to a kyocera on a windows machine, but cups admin doesn't give me any options for kyoceras...
<3> is there something like logwatch for debian?
<13> Hello, I'm using rsync to backup from another computer, but I don't want it to ask for a p***word, so I can run it from an automated script: rsync -a --link-dest=../yesterday -e ssh backupuser@172.17.0.61:/etc/scripts current/
<6> TimothyP, create an ssh key with no p***phrase.
<13> a guide somewher?
<13> but is there a way for example to pipe it or something, when a scripts asks for input command par1 par2 < 'p***word' (or something simular ?)
<6> man ssh-keygen maybe
<13> ah yes
<14> you could write an expect script to provide the p***word, though ssh keys are much more secure
<15> hi can anyone help me out with this please. .. i just installed eggdrop bot and its telling me at the end of install "Remember to change directory to /home/jahshua/eggdrop before you proceed." this is my ls in /home/jahshua http://pastebin.com/542426
<16> eirejah: well, enter the subdir "eggdrop" then
<15> ok
<15> but i dont need to create a directory for /home/jahshu/eggdrop ? because i already have one ..
<15> a*
<16> no, it says to change to that dir, not create it
<15> ok right
<15> sorry ;/
<15> thanks
<16> np
<17> Hi guys i have same problem with my adsl connection ,can you help me?
<18> hey
<18> I'm using freq scaling with the powernow-k8 driver. my scaling_min_freq is 1000000, can I get this lower?
<5> use a different governor.
<5> set your lowest freq.
<18> my govenor is ondemand
<18> how do I set the lowest freq?
<19> macka: that's probably it
<19> macka: you could try 'under-volting' your cpu, if there's support for that
<18> hmmm...
<18> sounds dangerous
<18> this is a server, needs to be rock-solid reliable
<18> I tried: echo 500000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_min_freq
<18> ofcourse, that didn't work :)
<19> I did it to my laptop, and tortured it with mprime, and povray runs of several days have been ok, so I _think_ the cpu is happy with its diet, but as you say, perhaps not appropriate for a server ;)
<18> I've just made it a personal rule not to touch anything CPU related apart from cooling. I'm not a clocker
<19> well, yeah, the 'under-volting' was for cooling (and batt. life) purposes
<18> however, this is an AMD64 3200 (2Ghz) and it's a real overkil for what it's doing. the ondemand gov. is working a treat...
<18> root@sleeper:/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq# cat stats/time_in_state
<18> 2000000 4154
<18> 1800000 496
<18> 1000000 4117198
<18> as you can see :)
<19> uhuh
<18> I'm not physically at the machine (will be in about 7 hours though)
<18> I'll see what my BIOS has to offer
<18> powernow-k8: 0 : fid 0xc (2000 MHz), vid 0x6 (1400 mV)
<18> powernow-k8: 1 : fid 0xa (1800 MHz), vid 0x8 (1350 mV)
<18> powernow-k8: 2 : fid 0x2 (1000 MHz), vid 0x12 (1100 mV)
<18> that turns up in my dmesg
<18> 1100 mV seems to be the lowest it supports
<20> Hi there
<18> I use the BIOS to tweak this, or can I do it thru linux?
<19> I have a pentium m, and got a patch that lets you set the voltages for different freqs through sysfs
<20> Does anybody here know anything about multifunction printers under linux?
<18> amphi: can you set to any freq?
<19> macka: but I'm not sure it's appropriate for a server
<19> macka: no, only change the cpu voltage for each freq
<18> as long as it's reliable...
<18> www.mackenziefamily.id.au/phpsysinfo
<18> see my problem?
<19> macka: eg. original was 1000000 1132 and now I have 1000000 796
<18> nice...
<18> that wouldn't solve my heating issue though would it?
<19> macka: it _seems_ to be reliable after much running of mprime; mprime crashed pretty quickly with the voltage set too low
<18> hehe, I bet :)
<20> I have a multifunction printer/scanner (Xerox Workcentre PE16) which is an identical clone to SAMSUNG SCX-4216F;
<19> macka: yeah, it runs much cooler - temp used to be 70C+ under load, now it doesn't go over 52C
<20> samsung have an external backend for this scanner, but it doesn't work for me.
<20> can anyone help me?
<19> macka: idles at ~35C instead of ~45C
