<0> siglite: If you need a quick compile, send me the VM and I'll run it through my dual opteron
<0> vmware flies on this thing
<1> hey Lion-O
<2> hi Nanuq .
<2> Hmm, still on dialup but finally an evening with 1) beer, 2) some sleep :)
<1> Lion-O: what's new?
<1> Lion-O: dialup?
<3> byebye brazil byebye
<4> Revenger, ****ing france :\
<3> Nanuq: he is grandmasitting.
<1> Revenger: Ahh.
<2> Nanuq: ans she has only a phone.
<2> but.. things are going splendig.
<2> splendid
<1> splenda?
<3> border police, shepherds, guys with machine guns and tactical gear...
<3> and that on the border between .nl and .de
<5> back.
<5> howdy boys.
<5> wtf was i msg'ed from Lion_King?
<2> Hi Revenger / D-side / fredk_ / Nanuq / siglite / $others :)
<1> Revenger: did I miss something?
<3> all for the safety of the football championship.
<3> hey Lion-O :>
<5> woo. 2G sd card.
<3> Nanuq: normally the border between .nl and .de is gone.
<3> you can cross it with 120 kmh on the autobahn if you like.
<2> cool, new sabrina strips
<3> now, every single car is checked.
<5> I just got back from Superman Returns.
<4> speaking of .de
<4> there's supposed to be like a artificial tropical bathing type resort around berlin ish
<3> there are about 4 resorts of that kind i know of.
<3> maybe even more.
<4> Revenger, like they would use a dome or something like that and build a "island paradise"?
<4> ahh, found it. Tropical Islands
<4> http://www.my-tropical-islands.com/index-e.htm
<1> Revenger: yeah I know
<4> D-side, was it any good?
<1> Revenger: between most of the schengen, no?
<6> if i left a process in screen, how can i see the log of that process?
<2> ip1ay: depends on the process.
<3> Nanuq: just .to keep them hooligans out
<5> fredk_: i absolutely loved it.
<1> Revenger: too bad you're already in ;)
<4> D-side, I see they gave it a 7.9 on IMDB
<5> i don't know if i'm welcome in germany.
<5> i think they're all angrier than I am. :D
<6> Lion-O i want to see what happend in that process without reattaching
<2> ip1ay: check its logfile(s) if it has any. Once again; it depends on the process.
<7> I want to set up a telnet p***thru to a serial port. Whats a good way to do this?
<3> Nanuq: we are like 300km from the nearest playing locations.
<2> RonK: that makes little sense.
<3> if you dont count hannover, which is like 90.
<6> the process does not keep any log files, i am wondering if 'screen' keeps any
<4> RonK, buy a cyclades?
<2> ip1ay: it doesn't. rtfm
<7> ok. let me put it another way:
<3> even our local policeis on high alert.
<5> oh?
<5> something going on that i'm not aware of?
<7> I have a piece of industrial machinery controlled via serial port. Instead of running 700m of serial cable, I want to plug it into a serial port on a nearby linux box, then telnet to a port which will p*** thru to the serial.
<2> hmm, chatting to $so using msn. I fel geekish :)
<3> D-side: Football world championchips.
<4> RonK, I ***ume you guys have a budget..get a cyclades
<5> Lion-O: new msn client?
<1> Revenger: What I thought daft is there are signs of the World Cup here, but look at Canada's role :P
<5> Revenger: wow. i just proved my status as an american didn't I?
<2> D-side: no idea. I noticed some updatye not too long ago
<2> D-side: I really don't keep track :) It just needs to work 8)
<5> Lion-O: or maybe sometimes not. heh
<7> I could buy a single port terminal server for about $150, but the linux box is sitting right there.
<3> D-side: security here it tighter than new yorks after 911
<5> Revenger: as well it should be.
<1> Revenger: I guess it's more that there are immigrants here from relevant countries..
<5> Revenger: it affecting your daily routine at all?
<8> can anyone tell me how to configure FC5 to update from a mirror site ?
<1> D-side: sitting on his arse? naaaah. ;)
<2> Lorak: try reading its faq and manuals on the fc website.
<3> D-side: only if you have to cross borders, like go shopping to .nl
<8> i tryed but i did not find anything
<8> :(
<3> 2 hours waiting time at the border yesterday.
<2> Lorak: bull
<1> ****
<2> :)
<4> ooh, dexters lab P
<4> :P
<5> Revenger: oof. well i suppose it could be worse.
<8> belive me that it did't say how to concigure yum to update from a mirror site
<2> Lorak: considering the fact that this info is 1 click away from the main page of the fedora website I am pretty sure you didn't even bother to try.
<3> indeed it could.
<7> Yeah. I could buy another cyclades or any of a hundred similar products. Got that kind of setup running all over the company. Is there a way to do it on the linux box that is sitting right there anyway, 2m from the target machine?
<2> Lorak: I jst checked myself. Stop being a lazy nit.
<1> hey wlf
<4> RonK, ssh in and run minicom?
<7> I've been doing that myself, but thats not what they want. (shrug)
<5> "they" would be the clueless people in charge?
<7> Of course. :-)
<7> I've got a little app for WinDOZE that was freeware in 1997 that does it. Its called TCP2SER. Looking for something similar I guess.
<4> RonK, how is running minicom not good enough? :P
<2> shouldn't be too hard.
<2> what fredk_ said. Logon and make the user run minicom.
<2> easy.
<4> Heck, you could even have that user automatically start minicom
<7> They want to run it from some other app that talks to all the machines.
<2> fredk_: *nod*
<2> RonK: rofl
<7> btfoom. I just do what they pay me for.
<2> RonK: that was not your original question though. You don't hook the serial port to a telnet session. simple.
<5> RonK: er, like centralized management of ALL devices?
<7> yeah, D-Side
<5> i do this all the time. i get curious about whats going on, and then the poor saps ask me if i can help.
<2> RonK: I would ***ume that they pay you to know your basic issues before promising to do them.
<5> when all along i had absolutely no interest in helping.
<4> So, activate telnetd. Login and it will automatically start minicom. I don't see how this is ANY different from EXACTLY what you wanted.
<5> I apologize, that wasn't really very fair of me.
<5> as an uninterested observer, i don't think its quite THAT bad.
<7> For $150 I can buy a box the size of a pack of cigarettes with a network connection on one end and a serial port on the other.
<5> but as I've said to Revenger recently. I can't believe I'm the most positive-thinking person in this channel.
<5> RonK: sounds like a good deal.
<2> RonK: then do so.
<7> You telnet to that box, and automatically connect thru to the serial port. Thats all it does.
<5> who would introduce a device with as many points of failure into an industrial environment like a pc?
<5> certainly not I
<2> D-side: exactly
<9> RonK: there is even a free util to do that for a windows box. never seen one for linux tbh though
<4> RonK, so exactly HOW is that different from a script starting mincom automatically when you login?
<2> D-side: people who are totally obsessed by using product X even when there are better alternatives.
<4> Lion-O, yeah like a cyclades :)
<2> fredk_: aye. I'll have to take your word for it since I'm not familiar with it myself.
<4> Lion-O, well I use it all the time. It works, always has
<5> fredk_: hey.
<4> D-side ;)
<5> cyclades boxes work.
<4> yep
<5> you just chill out over there. :)
<5> unless i misunderstood and need to shut the hell up.
<9> wouldn't be hard to write something like that in c though - open tcp port, open serial port, shunt data back and forth between anything that connects
<2> DaveHowe: *nod*
<4> DaveHowe, minicom does that..well, apart from the tcp port ;)
<4> which telnetd will do sufficiently
<10> Lantronix boxes is what you want, probably.
