<0> happy houer

<2> how can I change p***word for a user from a single command line (eg the new p***word would be at the command line and there wouldn't be a separate question for it)
<3> something like
<3> echo "newp***" | p***wd --stdin user
<3> check man p***wd, i believe it has correct syntax
<4> But that is potentially unsafe, because with ps or pgrep any user could get the arguments of echo. A here-document solves this problem.
<3> true
<3> but how big is the chance of a user doing ps at that same second
<4> It is greater than zero. ;)
<4> When generating a lot of load, chances are quite good, that the timewindow is bigger than a second.
<5> ulfdoz: that is why changing p***word is done by typing after prompt
<2> ArcAngel, ah i'll test
<2> change that somebody is doing ps at same time is 0%
<2> because it is not user based system
<2> ArcAngel, it doesn't recognise argument --stdin
<2> arcanglen, any other ideas?
<3> -stdin ?
<2> ArcAngel, noup
<2> arcangle, here is the help http://rafb.net/p/WlAFoj93.html
<3> you have to use the echo also
<2> ArcAngel, yea but it didnt work
<3> hmm
<2> ArcAngel, here is what happens: http://rafb.net/p/8s9ILG84.html
<3> did you try also exactly as i first typed?
<2> ArcAngel, yea
<3> hmm, i thought that was the linux way
<2> ArcAngel, but it only gave that command help
<2> hmm, odd
<2> using -s changes /etc/p***wd file
<3> -s should only show p***word state
<3> do you have command 'chp***wd' ?
<2> ArcAngel, yea
<3> that should do the trick
<2> ArcAngel, how?
<3> chp***wd user newp***?
<3> i don't know exact syntax
<3> try it
<2> ArcAngel, it just gives a blank line
<3> that is good
<3> then the p***word is changed
<2> ArcAngel, no i mean without arguments
<3> oh
<2> ArcAngel, with arguments it gives the help
<2> ArcAngel, and only thing you can p*** like that is -e
<2> ArcAngel, inet says -e means encrypted p***words
<2> ArcAngel, it also says, that i should save the changes with ctrl-d
<2> ArcAngel, is it possible to p*** that ctrl-d using stdin?
<3> i don't know the command exactly, i just read on google that is what people use if p***wd doesn't know --stdin
<2> arcangle, yea it works but to automate it the scriptfile should send keystroke ctrl-d to save the changes
<3> hmm
<3> i think that is possible
<2> ArcAngel, no wait
<2> ArcAngel, i think it works without if i save the p***words to a file
<3> echo "\015\104"
<3> should be ctrl+d
<2> arcangle, yea it works just fine
<3> good
<3> O=)
<2> arcangle, thanks for help
<3> you're welcome
<3> O=)
<6> why do i need a package called kernel-headers?
<6> i mean, emerge -avut world wants to upgrade that...
<6> imean linux-headers... equery depends returns glibc, xf86-input-evdev, hal, transcode
<6> i have always thought that i dont need linux-headers if i have the whole source (i have compiled my own kernel)
<7> husku: I guess anything, that tries to interact with kernel directly needs the header files.
<7> the headers define veriables and functions in libraries
<7> which one can then import to his own project
<6> Pallokala: yep, i just thought that gentoo-sources already provided that
<6> but, i was wrong... so, second question, should i prefer using newest linux-headers or the "same" version that my running kernel is...
<6> or does it make any difference at all
<6> Pallokala: thanks for answers :)
<7> mm
<7> just use the version, which ever is in portage
<7> I used to have for a short time linux-headers-2.4 and kernel 2.6
<5> i think, that goot chose is to use newer kernel than that from linux-headers
<5> and to recompile glibc after linux-headers upgrade
<6> hmm
<8> heya
<0> yo
<8> why there are three different stage3 archives for my cpu architecture? there is a i586, i686 and one x86 stage3 archive
<8> i do not know whats the best choice
<8> does anyone know where the differences are
<8> ?
<0> whats your arch?
<8> pentium m (centrino)
<0> i686 for that
<8> for what kind of cpu is the x86 stage3 ?
<0> x86_64 you mean
<0> for amd athlon 64 and emt64-aware intel pentium/xeon
<8> stage3-x86-2006.1.tar.bz2
<8> stage3-i686-2006.1.tar.bz2
<8> stage3-i586-2006.1.tar.bz2
<0> ah, plain x86
<8> i'm confused
<0> sorry :)
<0> sec
<0> you need i686 for sure
<8> ok
<8> but for what arch is x86?
<0> x86 is for i386, i586, i686
<0> a common name
<0> for those
<8> where did you read this?
<7> watson: x86 probably refers to i386
<7> which is compatible with any x86-processor from 386 and up
<9> Hello.
<5> jo
<9> Has someone in here experience with EMC and PowerPath ,or better how to get an ISCSI San running under Gentoo ?
<1> how are you gentlemen !!
<5> best of course
<10> we get kernel panic
<10> main debugger turn on
<11> hmmm, anyone here using ekiga with v4l2?
<11> i have v4l2 compiled in kernel and my webcam module loaded, but video4linux does not show up in the available video sources list in ekiga
<7> interesting
<7> natanoj: have yoou tried your camera with this: media-video/camorama ?
<11> Pallokala: no, but with xawtv
<11> ok, have emerged camorama and testing now
<11> i get something, but it seems that the picture is trippled
<11> must be a v4l-conf setting
<7> I guess camorama uses same gnome-stuff then ekiga
<7> so camorama works -> ekiga works
<11> yes, but ekiga doesn't even show video4linux as a driver
<7> revdep-rebuild? right use-flags defined?
<11> revdep-rebuild is fine (did one today)
<11> net-im/ekiga-2.0.3 USE="dbus gnome -avahi -debug -doc -sdl"
<11> is that wrong perhaps?
<11> i saw on a mailinglist a suggestion about installing v4l2 plugin for pwlib, but that already has the v4l2 use flag set
<11> the v4l use flag is unset on pwlib
<11> perhaps i need that as well
<11> but iirc i don't use v4l
<11> worth a shot anyway
<7> I have sdl on...
<7> dunno if that has anything to do with it
<7> set the v4l also
<7> it might be that the driver is v4l onl
<11> perhaps
<11> rebuilding ekiga now
<11> oups, compile error :(
<11> seams like i need to revdep-rebuild again
<7> gentoo is sometimes irritating
<12> Almost too easy to break.
<7> yes.. until you finally get everything configured the way you like it
<13> hoi
<14> hello
<13> hoho
