<0> to be honest I dont rreally know because I've never used it. but maybe your network is slow? or you dont have the correct ports cinfigured for it to run?
<1> nha, it's just a slow protocol
<2> Hello all
<2> Using the Blackdown JDK, is it possible to get a headless-only awt library which doesn't link against X libs?
<3> Are there any .chm viewers for Linux? I'm using Mandriva
<4> what is .chm?
<3> a compiled html file that is used for e-books and help files usually
<4> mkay
<3> Think PDF, but with a windows html flavor to it
<4> sounds perverted.. :P
<3> yeah, it's very brokeback mountainish
<4> brokewhat?
<3> lol
<5> ethereal: Symbol `prefs' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking
<5> 02:17:54 Err Duplicate protocol name "eXtensible Markup Language"! This might be caused by an inappropriate plugin or a development error.
<5> Aborted
<5> why ?
<6> I need to create a win2k boot disk on a floppy, can't figure out how to do this, anybody know?
<4> don't think there is any linux utils for that
<6> I think I just found out how to do it thanks :)
<7> xp__: you can download boot disks from the net
<7> just google
<8> Howdy (yes, I'm back...) - I am trying to hook up my postfix to my providers smtp-server, and only use him to send emails, but he uses pop-before-smtp. I have read that the best way to do this is by installing fetchmail and run a cron-job every once in a while to authenticate....
<8> Isn't there another way that is more elegant (like make postfix run fetchmail and wait for the return-code and then send emails ?
<9> What directory would you recommend installing chkrootkit to?
<9> Obviously I'll put a link to it in /sbin - but what about the other files in the folder?
<9> Or should I move the whole chkrookit folder into /sbin?
<10> you could just run it from whatever directory you untared it too...
<9> Yeah, but it's on a server
<9> I don't want normal people to access it
<9> Move the whole folder to /sbin?
<11> I'm trying to switch from a radeon 9800 pro to a geforce 6600 gt in suse linux 10, but every time i start up, the x server doesn't start. i tried doing init 3 then sax, but then this weird screen comes up that seems to be the result of some bad display setting
<11> any ideas?
<4> VirNovum: edit xorg.conf (or xf86config) and change driver to "nvidia" instead of whatever it is you use now
<4> VirNovum: ..and install nvidia drivers ofcourse.. ;)
<11> ok, i think I have xf86, so would i have to edit any other options?
<4> no, just the driver should be enough
<9> Is it ok to disable normal users access to netstat?
<9> So only look can run it?
<9> On a server. This won't break anything, will it?
<11> ok, where it says device, it says driver: "radeon", VendorName: "ATI", BoardName: "R350 NH", do i need to change these too?
<4> VirNovum: only the driver line..
<11> ok, restarting and switching now, thanks!
<9> anyone?
<12> Hello guys
<12> is there anyone there?
<12> thanks
<12> StevenR_: Have you ever heard of "peopleware"?
<12> Does it even exist in English?
<14> MegaByte: probably no more than treeware exists...
<14> there's another word for it....
<12> StevenR_: Another word for what?
<14> wetware
<14> MegaByte: if you mean peopleware like software/hardware/treeware...?
<12> lol
<12> StevenR_: I just asked if it does exist at all
<14> also liveware, meatware
<12> StevenR_: It's just that some wise guys here in my country get some English words and change their meanings and then they humiliate people
<14> MegaByte: you have, of course corrected them.?
<12> StevenR_: Yes, I did
<12> StevenR_: Well, I couldn't exactly talk to the one who said that ****
<12> My friend said that his teacher said peopleware were computer users
<14> could be...it's an acceptable madeup word...kdict can't find it
<12> StevenR_: It doesn't make sense
<12> just decompose it and you'll see
<12> people + software
<14> no
<12> plus anything + ware gives the idea of software of some sort
<12> StevenR_: No?
<14> people are quite soft :P
<12> lol
<14> ware: articles of the same kind or material
<12> articles?
<14> things
<15> is it bad to perminantly add something to your $PATH variable?
<14> hedpe: like what?
<16> the dirs which are in $PATH are where your shell (probably bash) will search for executables
<16> so if you maybe compile a small GNU autoconfigure program with a weird --prefix=/some/strange/dir, you may either want to symlink the binaries into a target where PATH covers them, or add that path to your PATH var
<15> i am trying to build something that tells me to add something to my path: "add /opt/brcm/hndtools-mipsel-linux/bin to your path"
<15> is it best to symlink or add it?
<16> well
<16> just add it to your PATH for now
<16> :)
<15> should i do this through .bash_profile or some other way?
<16> that shouldnt matter
<16> i have my variables in other files and source them when i need them
<15> okay, thank you
<16> to add them more permanently you could edit /etc/profile for example -> "System wide environment and startup programs, for login setup, Functions and aliases go in /etc/bashrc"
<16> also not sure how your distribution handles it :)
<15> ahhh cool
<15> hmmm, i edited /etc/profile adding the two paths, and when i started a new shell, they are not there when i "echo $PATH"
<15> export PATH=/opt/brcm/hndtools-mipsel-linux/bin:/opt/brcm/hndtools-mipsel-uclibc/bin:$PATH
<15> i also tried putting that in my bashrc
<15> however, if i do it manually on the command line it works
<17> Do you think that it is a hardware problem if i do not find my soundcard in dmesg or lspci? It's a soundblaster live-24bit!
<17> Err
<17> Soundblaster live! 24-bit
<17> But, it is not detected..or so it seems, when I run dmesg or lspci
<17> It was working like
<17> 3 days ago, last time I used sound
<17> (I installed Gentoo 3 days ago, second day i wasn't on the computer, and today I got X working and all that stuff)
<17> I'm going to try booting into a LiveCD and seeing if it detects it
<18> i am trying to "shrink wrap" this kernel and have no knowledge if certain options in menuconfig such as INTEL microcode support and google hasn't really helped too much.. is there another resource you can suggest besides "?"
<19> psilikon: search 'linux kernel mailing list' at http://www.google.com/linux
<19> also search 'linux kernel' at http://www.oreilly.com
<18> cool
<19> if you're really into the kernel
<18> not really into it. I just don't want things compiled if i don't need them.
<20> hi all, I know using setuid is not that good but I am having an issue, I have created a small program (C) and set the owner and the group as root, I have also set the permission for the others as "r--", then I have activated the setuid root for that program but it wont execute, what is the point?
<21> I am having problems starting the Monkey Webserver on bootup, I am using the debian based distro, damn small linux, I have edited the file bootlocal.sh to include /opt/bin/monkey/start/banana start but it still will not start on boot
<20> I mean setuid is not supposed to let anyone execute a file on which its activated?
<19> Lie-Algebra: try 'chmod 4755 <filename>'
<20> k
<20> well i did chmod u+s file, i guess its the same, isnt it?
<19> no
<21> what is 4755?
<21> what is the 4?
<21> 755 is rwxr-xr-x
<21> but whats the 4?
<19> chmod u+s == chomd 4655
<19> iirc
<19> setuid
<22> iptables question. i'm trying to do DNAT with an ip range. iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p tcp --dport 5250:5252 -j DNAT --to 192.168.0.2-192.168.0.100 , so from what i've read that iptables will randomly choose the ip from the range? I'm trying to ge tit to find any established connectins and forward it appropriatly on the LAN. anyone familiar with this?
<20> hum, ok slummer but isnt it useless to set a suid root to a file when the permission for the others is set to 5 that is to say, everyone can execute the program ?
<19> permission vs privilege
<20> well i dont really understand how setuid root work though I am trying through simple examples ;p
<23> Does anyone know of an Ghosting/Imaging software for linux that actually works?
<19> dd
<23> dd doesnt work if the hds are different sizes
<23> source to destination, source is 3GB out of 80gb; restore to a 40gb drive..
<15> DogWater: what distro do you use?
<19> partition and format the 40GB, then 'cp'
<2> DogWater: If you don't care about doing bit-by-bit copies, there's always just tar
<2> DogWater: cd /old; tar c * | (cd /new; tar xv)
<2> That won't recreate disklabels or bootloaders, etc, but it'll work on already-formatted partitions anyway
<2> DogWater: Or with rsync: cd /old; rsync -av * /new
<2> (may want to test out the rsyncness first, I find I end up screwing up the dest if I just ***ume that I got it right, for whatever reason.
<2> s/thesis/theses/
<15> if i am looking for help on converting a module that was made for the 2.6.9 kernel to my 2.6.15 kernel, where could i ask for help where TCP protocol implementers might look?
<15> basically someone made a module for 2.6.9, that when i compile it, it says "*** Warning: "tcp_protocol" [/home/hedpe/school/15849/XCP/linux/xcp_host/xcp_host_driver.ko] undefined!"
<15> which is in their source code: extern struct net_protocol tcp_protocol; /* The TCP protocol already defined */"
<24> some tell me about QOS firewalls. how can a lammer like me impliment them
<24> someone rather
<19> rv_weasel: www.shorewall.net ???
<19> hedpe: email the author ???
<25> Looking for some help with BIND
<25> is there a way to syn BIND with DHCP just like Windows???
