Re: Un buen lector de news offline.
José Plaza decía: Buenas a todos. A ver si puedo dejar el Agent, lector de news de windows. Me hace falta a ver si conoceis algun lector de noticias offline, al estilo de Agent de widows para linux, en este caso Debian Slink. Lo más parecido que puedes encontrar al Agent es el Krn, pero tienes que tener instalado kde; la última versión (krn-0.6.11) ha mejorado bastante el rendimiento, el engarce de hilos y los cuelgues. Si no te importa tener instalado el kde (kdebase, kdelibs, kdesupport), puede ser una opción, aunque hay que tratarlo con mimo (desconectar del servidor de noticias antes de cortar la conexión a inet...). También tienes el Pan, lector similar pero en entorno gnome (necesitas versiones muy recientes de Gtk, Glib y gnomelibs), algo más engorroso para slink. Tampoco está a la altura del Agent. En Potato tienes el News-peruser; siempre puedes bajarte los fuentes de potato y hacer el paquete deb en tu slink. Es el que más me ha gustado, pero maneja mal el quoted-printable y, sobre todo, yo no he conseguido compilarlo en mi slink con la función replay (tengo que abrir la función compose y pegar el texto a base de ratón); ignoro si en potato funcionará dicha opción. Pide unas gtk y glib algo más recientes que las de slink (creo, porque yo tuve que compilar las de potato si mal no recuerdo). Otro más es el NewsFleX. Este funciona con las libs Xforms-0.88, pero en slink tienes las libforms-0.88 que sirven igual; también necesita el paquete mpack que lo tienes en slink (sección mail). Es el heredero del Xagent -lo digo por si lo conocías- y sigue sin enlazar los hilos amén otros problemas (por supuesto el quoted-printable). En resumen, si dispones de kde-1.2 para tu slink, puedes probar el krn. Si no te importa compilar para tu slink las librerías Gtk y Glib de Potato, puedes probar el News-peruser. Y si sólo quieres compilar el programa, instalas libforms y mpack y te bajas (lo tienes en freshmeat) el NewsFleX (las versiones 1.1.8 y 1.1.9 compilan bien en slink con las libforms y el mpack instalados: corroborado). El Agent de windos funciona en linux con las últimas versiones del wine, por lo que sería otra opción (seguir usando el Agent pero desde linux). Esto último lo digo de oidas, pues no lo he comprobado prsonalmente. Salud. Gracias a todos.

Hora y BIOS
Hola lista :-) Últimamente me estoy dando cuenta que tengo problemas con la hora en linuxLa hora del sistema no es correcta y cuando intento ajustarla con la hora de la BIOS que si lo es utilizando hwclock --hctosys pasa de mi, tal vez es que no entiendo muy bien como funciona todo esto de la hora en linux, además ¿toma linux la hora de la BIOS? ¿no hemos quedado en que linux no utiliza la BIOS para nada?. Este problema lo he detectado a raiz de hacer una actualización de la BIOS de mi placa base y de traducirla al español, además antes en la BIOS tenia los puestos serie A y B y paralelo en auto y linux los asignaba perfectamente en el arranque, pero después de la actualización de la BIOS si dejo los puertos en auto es como si no existieran para linux (no así para W9x) y debo habilitarlos explicitamente si quiero que linux los detecte en el arranque (¿No es esto una prueba de que linux si utiliza la BIOS?). ¿Podeis arrojar algo de luz sobre lo que me está pasando? ¿Alguien ha tenido un problema parecido? ¿Que soluciones veis?

Re: sendmail
I know this isn't the list for this, but I'm having some issues with a sendmail config. I'm trying to configure sendmail to forward *all* mail (incoming or outgoing) on a specific box to a different box (a mail server) but everything I've tried has the following debug output: you need to do one of three things, which depends on exactly how you want to do it. * enable a smart host, this means that it will deal with mail that it considers local (in the .cw file) but everything else gets routed to the smart host. you can do this with the DS (i think) command in the .cf file or by adding the below line to your /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and then running sendmailconfig define(`SMART_HOT', `esmtp:smarthost.domain.com')dnl * you can do the same thing if you have mailertable support built in by adding this line to your /etc/mail/mailertable file (and running makemap on it): .esmtp:smarthost.domain.com * and finally you can configure you sendmail as a null client (which is what it looks like you've done). i've never bothered with the null client setting cause i haven't needed it, but it should work. send to [EMAIL PROTECTED]: you should be redirecting to a host not an email address. are you? if you are redirecting to a host why is it trying to send it to a specific address? mailer 3 (nullclient), host `paladin.srn.com' user `spierson99', ruser `null' next=41667338, alias 0, uid 0, gid 0 flags=80006008QPRIMARY,QPINGONFAILURE,QPINGONDELAY,QRCPTOK owner=(none), home=(none), fullname=(none) orcpt=(none), statmta=(none), status=(none) rstatus=(none) specificity=0, statdate=Wed Dec 31 16:00:00 1969 or a slightly different output, but the results are always the same: [EMAIL PROTECTED] unknown i would assume that this is a legit error, the user doesn't exist. the question is why is the mail going to this user. Would anybody here give me a hand with this? Please respond to me privately to keep the list clean. i'll keep it public so people can see the answer, maybe someone will benifit :) adam.

Some questions from a newbie: 1. How do you impose quotas in Debian? I've RTFM, and tried to follow them, but still couldn't. Could anybody give me a bit of a crash-course here, please? 2. I've installed ssltelnet for users who telnet to our system... ...but then the issue.net doesn't show up (I think it got over-ridden). How can I set it to show up again? Thanks!

Re: hang trying to sync hardware clock ...
It is very unlikely, but... a typo in the hwclock script could prevent the next message from appearing, yet the script is still completing, in which case the problem is in the script(s) being executed after hwclock. If the above yields nothing then check /etc/rcS.d and look at the script that come after Sxxhwclock when you list that dir. Whatever the outcome of this experiment is, you should report the problem to the debian-boot mailing list. well it's certainly something with the hwclock.sh script ... i booted into emergency mode off the rescue cd, and tried to run the hwclock script and got the same hang running: /etc/init.d# ./hwclock.sh show locked the box up completely. that should not happen. so i booted again and moved hwclock.sh to hwclock.sh-broken and it booted up properly. i'll play a bit more and then report it to someone once i have an idea what the problem actually is. The new ext2 features means you can't mount partitions created by the install when running a 2.0.x kernel, not a problem unless you try to downgrade to a 2.0.x kernel later on or still have slink running and try to mount potato partitions. The size of the HD should not make any difference. i know but when faced with the bizarre start eliminating the unknown and unfamiliar. I don't recall seeing any report of this problem go by on debian-boot, but you would have to check on that list (archives or ask) or with the bug tracking system (it should be under boot-floppies because dpkg -S /etc/init.d/hwclock doesn't return any package name). i'll check it out, thanks for the reply. adam.
Re: removing hard drives
Remove or modify the mount point entries from your /etc/fstab In addition, compare the devices your /etc/fstab has listed for your mount points compared to the devices that are coming up in bootup. You can always do a # dmesg | less to see how your devices (drives) are coming up. For example, /home /dev/hdc1 may now be /home /dev/hdb1 you may very well have to use a rescue disk to do this.

Modem not working
Hi there, I'm having a bit of a problem getting my modem working under Debian Slink 2.1, and really I'm beginning to think that I will have to do something drastic as playing with jumpers. It's a SupraSST 56i PRO DF card (Diamond Multimedia), and it seems to use something called Modem Enumerator and as I'm by no means a modem specialist I can only guess that that's a driver of some kind. Anyway, it works perfectly in Windows, but Linux doesn't seem to figure it out, it figures out that there is a serial card on com3/ttyS2, but can't get information on UART or anything else. I've tried every trick I can think of using setserial, but nothing happens. Does anybody have any experience with this modem? I saw on Linux.com that someone had configured it manually by moving the jumpers around, but I'm not sure if I like to try that on my own. Any takers? regards, Guðmundur __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: Modem not working
Hi, Yeah, it's supposed to be a normal modem. I inspected the box and the manual carefully before buying to avoid the winmodem-curse. And their homepage (Diamond multimedia) doesn't indicate anything in that direction, I even found a blurb where they stated that they work closely with the Linux community.

How to implement libiodbc2 into php apache?
Hi! I have a problem to implement the libiodbc and I hope that someone could give me a hint how to solve it! At the moment, I am busy to set up a Debian-box (distribution frozen) with apache and php3 that have to have access via php3 to a MSSQL-Server. Therefore, I installed the - apache - php3 - libiodbc2 packages. How do I have to implement the odbc driver into php3? Do I have to re-compile the php3 and after that the apache server to get the libiodbc implemented? Or, is it better, to install all these packages without debian-support in /usr/local/...? But then, it wouldn't make sense to implement the libiodbc2-package into the distribution, would it? Could someone give me any hints, how I can re-compile the Debian-files? Do I have to re-compile the .deb-files (and if so, how?) or do I have to configure the original files (*.diff, *.dsc, *.orig.tar.gz)? I am new to Debian, so I don't know how to adjust a pre-compiled package to my needs. Thanks in advance for your support, Stephan Jaeger

Re: Potato Installation Bug ?
I have always had a problem with the boot disks occasionally dying. The things I can advise are: * check that floppy access has actually finished and then give it a few seconds * going too fast throught the install (and swapping disks) make it more likely the install will hang If it hangs at the point where everything is done, you dont need to do the install all over again, just reboot with the original rescue disk, but instead of initialising a Linux partition, just mount the ones you created last time. The next step will then take you to create boot disk or boot from hard drive. You can then keep on trying untill you get a successful boot disk!! Johnny.
