The best thing to do is probably to suggest this to the head of the CS department in the Openu. There is no limits to what can be done about this, up to and including putting the meetings on the Openu satellite network, so that those who can't attend can watch it from the nearest Openu center. That will require having them in the Openu campus, of course. The technical possibility exists, but it takes a lot of convincing. In any case, nag about it a bit to the Merakez, so that he'll put a notice about the meeting in the OS course's Telem site. That will reach a lot of students. Unfortunately I can't talk to anybody in my own section of the Openu, because everybody is frantic about the y2k bug. Don't ask. When things are less hectic I may try to arouse a bit of an interest in things linux, but don't count on me to move things around - I just don't have the charisma, and I may not even work in the Openu much longer.

Re: Swap not in use on Squid2 Server
512MB RAM are completely enough (wish I had such a machine :), and it would use up the RAM for IO buffers (disk cache) but obviously won't use on-disk swap for disk cache. Run 'free' and you'll probably see tons of RAM going for buffers. About Squid 2, it really doesn't need much swap space, since Squid 2 is always NOVM and manages RAM as much as it was allowed to use in /etc/squid.conf (make sure you tune it) smarter than Linux can do it. The current kernel is the one that comes with RedHat6.0 - 2.2.5 Do i need to break the 2 GB partition into smaller parts ?! (how do i do that ? i have only 4 possible partitions, no ?) Whoa! Upgrade to 2.2.10 or higher, since before there were few nasty problems, one with a DoS attack (2.2.9 crash - causing a kernel panic) and the other presenting a possibility to skip the ipchains policy (in 2.2.5 I think). A partition table can have up to 4 primary partitions. Under DOS/Windows, you'll have the 1st as Primary (C: - hda1) and the 2nd Extended (hda2), which takes up all the remaining space but gets no drive letter under DOS. Then, inside the extended partition, you define as many Logical partitions as you need, going hda5, hda6, hda7, or D:, E:, F: under DOS. You can create much more Logical partitions than 4 - not sure about the exact limit. Many sysadmins do it right and assign different partitions for /tmp, /var, /usr etc so that a filled up tmp or log directory won't make the whole system out of disk space. -- Best regards, Ilya Konstantinov a.k.a Toastie [http://toast.demon.co.il] = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Hebrew emacs?
The following is a snippet from a posting to gnu.emacs.sources. It is not the full posting (which includes elisp code). Ehud posted this announcement, and then 2 errata postings. I have not tested this, but I guess it is of interest to ILUG. -- Oleg Goldshmidt | BLOOMBERG L.P. (BFM) | [EMAIL PROTECTED] "...

From: "Ehud Karni "[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: hebeng.el package - Hebrew with right to left and isearch support Newsgroups: gnu.emacs.sources Date: Sun, 26 Dec 1999 15:55:42 GMT Organization: Simon Wiesel Insurance agency I have written a full package for supporting Hebrew with right-to-left (R2L) and push-mode. However, it is in Unicode (not MULE) with keyboard conversion (according to the Israeli Latin-Hebrew standard keyboard). The R2L is indeed the harder part. It includes re-defining of many basic functions. I'm willing to help the Emacs development team with my Hebrew use experience. This version of the package works with Emacs 20.X and should also work with 19.34. It works on the UNIX and NT variants (The last DOS version tested is 19.34, I stopped working with the DOS emacs after the NTemacs was released). Major features: in both R2L and L2R: overwrite, insert, push-mode, delete char, backspace, goto bol/eol, clear to bol/eol, sort-lines. Support of Hebrew/Latin keyboard (without OS support). Inversion of strings/lines (Windoz inversion too). Justification (alignment) of text right/left. Modify the syntax table to include the Hebrew characters. `isearch' enhancements - Hebrew toggle, prepend toggle. ## # This package is strictly UNIBYTE and disable MULTIBYTE explicitly. # ## Part of the isearch modifications were posted here few days ago.

Re: Internet Gold / ISDN help needed
MSNs are the telephone numbers that you want your ISDN device (e.g. your card) to anwser on. On a incoming call ISDN first announces the call and the number that has been dialed (MSN) on the D channel expects one of the devices connected to anwser. You should get at least two of them from Bezeq (since you have two B channels), but you can have more (I think up to 10). If you want your card to anwser incoming calls to a MSN you have to set it up to know this MSN and anwser it (or set it up and not anwser if you don't want the card to anwser). In case of ISDN cards it's usually good to enter all MSNs and set them to anwser since the card will only anwser calls that come from another ISDN card (ISDN calls carry the service type information). Quite nice toy, actually. Especially if you set up the vbox (anwsering machine) :-) Schlomo On Tue, 28 Dec 1999, Stanislav Malyshev a.k.a Frodo wrote: YB I've managed to work out the isdn things with linux..

Swap not in use on Squid2 Server
Hi list. i installed squid 2 on PII233 with 512 MB RAM and 2 9.1 scsi 10,000 RPM. I gave the server 2 GB of swap (i did not mind to give it so much swap, i have lots of disk space). Now, after installing and all, i have a strange thing. The RAM has only 3-4 MB left but the system does not use the swap at all. The current kernel is the one that comes with RedHat6.0 - 2.2.5 Do i need to break the 2 GB partition into smaller parts ?! (how do i do that ? i have only 4 possible partitions, no ?)

Subscribe (was RE: (no subject))
a. The links to subscribe in the home page are broken ! b. If someone use MS exchange or so (like me, unfortunately) and just reply a message, change the text and send - it will not work !
