[gentoo-user] libxml++config.h missing - what package should provide the file?
Hello. I'm trying to compile gnome-extra/assogiate-0.2.0, and it fails, because it cannot find libxml++config.h: In file included from /usr/include/libxml++-2.6/libxml++/exceptions/parse_error.h:25, from ../libassogiate/mime-type.hh:30, from mime-package.hh:26, from mime-package.cc:24: /usr/include/libxml++-2.6/libxml++/exceptions/exception.h:28:28: error: libxml++config.h: No such file or directory Could somebody please tell me, which package should provide this file? And while we're at it, does anybody know if there's something like the now gone PFS, Portage File Search service, which used to be at http://www.rommel.stw.uni-erlangen.de/~fejf/cgi-bin/pfs-web.pl?

[gentoo-user] pam limits
Hi, ppl I have the habit of imposing some limitations over all users via /etc/security/limits.conf. For example I used to limit the number of concurrent processes one can execute to prevent the system from simple misuses like fork bombs by putting a limit (nproc) for group users and all other common groups (games etc.) Now that the behaviour of useradd -m xyz has changed from putting the newuser in group users (xyz:users) to putting the user in a group with same name (xyz:xyz) I would appreciate any advice on getting the old behavior back or any workaround to achieve the same goal - all users should be limited by default at creation time. -- Best regards, Daniel -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Add this to /etc/profile (or any other place you prefer):
alias listips=LANG= /sbin/ifconfig | awk '/\inet\/{split(\$2,a,\:\);print
a[2]}'
Then just run listips...
Or put your command in a script file. ifconfig+awk is definitely very portable.

Correct, my ${DISTDIR} is normally mounted via nfs.
When I umount it, I can emerge ...
When mounted, dmesg gives me

files in ${DISTDIR}. If that's on nfs and nfs isn't behaving
properly then it can cause problems like that. Check dmesg.
Correct, my ${DISTDIR} is normally mounted via nfs.
When I umount it, I can emerge ...
When mounted, dmesg gives me
lockd: cannot monitor ${IP_OF_NFS_SERVER}
lockd: failed to monitor ${IP_OF_NFS_SERVER}
What can I do to fix this? Restarting the nfs-service on the server did
not help yet.
There are also nfs services that you need to run on the client side.
Maybe you need to do something like this:
emerge --noreplace nfs-utils
rc-update add nfs default
/etc/init.d/nfs start
If both client and server side services are running correctly then
should just work.

[gentoo-user] Setting up a local portage/rsync mirror on OpenBSD
Hey everyone, I've been considering setting up a local rsync mirror for my many local machines. However, my primary server with all the hard drive space (the only one that's any good) is running OpenBSD. There's a few guides out there about running Portage mirrors on Gentoo, but none that I can find about running one on OpenBSD. So I turned here for advice. Has anyone done this/have insight on doing this? Also, in the rsync configuration, the line path=/usr/portage, does rsync work in a way that I need to leave it like that, or can I arbitrarily redirect that to wherever. Right now I have that as a symlink. Thanks, -- Samuel 'Shardz' Baldwin Shardz's Igloo: shardz.homelinux.net Registered Linux User #410639 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Hmm, I don't have nfs running on any of my other boxes (only nfsmount) and the nfs-mounted DISTDIR worked for a long time ... Anyway, I did what you recommended and now emerge runs fine. Might be that the reboot of the NFS-server also helped a bit. Thank you, Stefan -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Setting up a local portage/rsync mirror on OpenBSD
I don't use OpenBSD but I can assure you that there is nothing special about portage's usage of rsync. Every howto about rsync servers and BSD should work. Just look into the script for settings like recursion and compression. Well, I mean't every gentoo one says emerge --sync, I was wondering what commands I could run/throw into a script to grab exactly what I want. Also, how would I get rsync to download/sync to a different location (upstream syncing, not syncing with local clients), such as /mnt/srv/portage/ or whatnot. You can choose every directory you want. In fact, it's even better to use another one so you don't need to exclude /usr/portage/distfiles and /usr/portage/packages. Awesome.

[gentoo-user] smartctl strangeness
Hi group, A while ago my Maxtor 120G IDE HD started acting up, smartctl wouldn't pass it and in dmesg were many ominous dma_intr errors. So from ebay I got a used Samsung 160g which I just installed. I was hoping to transfer over my OS and files etc to the new drive. The drive is recognized in the BIOS on a venerable PIII and assigned Ultra DMA mode 5. But I notice it is recognized as having only 131G. Maybe that's significant. IIRC the PC, a Dell, was put together in 01 and the Samsung HD is c. 2004. It's formatted completely FAT32 and mounts OK. Anyway, this is where things get even stranger. I've quadruple-checked and I still don't believe it. The Maxtor drive now PASSES smartctl -H and the new one FAILS. The Maxtor still gets the dma_intr errors in dmesg and the Samsung is said to have it's DMA disabled which contradicts the BIOS, but no other errors. Can somebody make sense of this?
