Re: [gentoo-user] Perl server-side debug

2008-08-07 Thread Gregory SACRE
Well, to be honest, I am developing a server side Perl application on my Gentoo box. Everything is local and I just transfer the sources to their Window$ server. So far, the only debugging method I used for my Perl script is a tail -f /var/log/apache2/error_log. It was not verbose, but at least

Re: [gentoo-user] Limit upload and source IP

2008-09-12 Thread Gregory SACRE
For the limitation, I cannot help you. But allowing only an IP range, you can use iptables. You define the default rule for INPUT packets to DROP and allow only a range (e.g. 192.168.0.0/24). That would give something like: iptables -A INPUT -p ALL -i your_interface -s ip_address_or_range

Hi Helmut, It sounds like there is a problem with the partition table on your USB stick. It might be the consequence of a hardware failure (read or more probably write) at some point. If, as you mention, once you do an fdisk then p, you can use once again your USB stick, then maybe save

Hi Stephan, Frankly, I don't think it would bring anything to you, except maybe the possibility to cancel a suspension on the fly and maybe some check when coming from suspension. I'm using tuxonice only for the suspend to disk, but even there, the kernel has some builtin features that would be
