 Also, what can I do to get rid of stale NFS handles ? I mean besides
 rebooting the machine (which is not a Linux-style solution).

I hope you'll get a better answer, but I just wanted to point out one thing:
one of the nice things about Linux (and Unix in general) is the decoupling
of the various parts of the system, and when one fails you can (at least in
priciple) restart it, without having to restart the whole system ("reboot").
What Windows users know as "reboot the system for this tiny configuration
change to take effect" is known in Unix as "restart this one tiny service
for the changes to it to take effect".

So if you're having problems with NFS on one filesystem, you can umount it,
and mount it again, and that should (minus any bugs) clear all the handles,
caches, and such stuff from the time of the old mount.

[I know nfs is in the kernel now, but I hope that it still follows the general
Unix philosophy]

Apache 1.3.6 for Linux

2000-10-26 Thread Nir Yurman

I was wondering where is it possible to download Apache 1.3.6 for Linux as a
rpm package. (a package to be installed using Red Hat package manager)
I could not find it under http://www.apache.org since the site does not
provide Apache 1.3.6 package.

Help appreciated.

Any special reason not to use 1.3.14? it's rpm can be downloaded from
any ftp://updates.redhat.com mirror
And did you try to look at http://rpmfind.net ?

Maybe I'm missing something here, but the latest apache RPM is 1.3.14, and
you can get it, for example, from Redhat's updates directory
(apache-1.3.14-3.i386.rpm is the latest RPM, and you should also get the
other apache-* stuff).

But if you insist on 1.3.6, perhaps because you're doing security checks on
old versions (or god knows what), you can get this antique version from 
the old Redhat 6.0 distribution, for example look at

ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/old-releases/redhat-6.0/i386/RedHat/RPMS/apache-1.3.6-7.i386.rpm
(of course, get the other apache-* packages there too)

See also www.rpmfind.net: you can find there any RPM you're looking for.

 I have HSP (PcTel) winmodem working under linux. Lucnets modems are
 working too.

 You can find those drivers at: http://www.o2.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html.

 (if you're using linux2.2.15+ you might have to use ppp module from an
 older kernel)

If yes, either you are out of luck, or you need to upgrade to a more
recent version (today there is RedHat 7.0), which may be having a
driver
for the modem.

Palm - Linux in Hebrew

I'm about to buy a Palm. I know there are several apps to sync and backup on
LINUX. But I haven't found any info on Hebrew support. Does anyone have any
info (or better still) first hand experience using a Palm and syncing Hebrew
data on a Linux box?

 All you YAY-sayers out there: there's still a little time to vote!

Guys, if you're going to have a discussion about this at the end of
each letter, please create a new mailing list for it. I'm getting sick
of it already. We've created a poll, go state your opinion there. The
majority will decide. So far it's 11 to 8 in favor of not having the
header. The poll will be concluded tomorrow. Please quit bitching and
moaning.


P.S., FWIW: some e-mail programs, such as mutt, have a special feature
to deal with this, and it works wonderfully for me. If you're having
problems using this feature, ask for help on the mutt mailing list. In
my opinion the MUA is the right place to solve this problem, and I
expressed it via my vote on the poll.
