I beg to differ about this being risky. The only risky thing
about this is leaving off the password. We use this same method,
with password, on all our Sun machines here at work.
With a password, this is as secure as your root account.
/etc/passwd is already protected from attack. The shell script
in /sbin/ can be write protected and belong to root so it can't
be overwritten unless security is already breached.
In short, I find this method to be safer and more deliberate
than Ctrl-Alt-Delete. As someone earlier in the thread mentioned,
many users use the 3 fingered salute during login out of force
of habit with NT. Rebooting on that is most unkind.

It probably isn't executable. Assuming that there is nothing else wrong with
it, use chmod to make it executable. However, be careful that the ownership
is correct and that you don't make it executable by people who shouldn't have
access to it. For Netscape, that should be a non-issue, but for daemons,
exercise some caution.

Subject: Gforth 0.4.0
Date: 30 Jan 1999 20:36:02 GMT
Gforth 0.4.0 is now available from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/gforth/
and its mirrors. A binary (+source) distribution for
i386-pc-linux-gnulibc1 (libc5) is available from
ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/devel/lang/forth/gforth-0.4.0-i386-pc-linux-gnulibc1.tar.gz
and its mirrors. Binary distributions for i386-pc-linux-gnu (libc6),
DOS, Win32, and OS/2, and HTML and plain text formatted versions of
the documentation are available from
http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/forth/gforth/.
Gforth is a fast and portable implementation of the ANS Forth
language. It works nicely with the Emacs editor, offers some nice
features such as input completion and history and a powerful locals
facility, and it even has (the beginnings of) a manual. Gforth employs
traditional implementation techniques: its inner interpreter is
indirect or direct threaded. Gforth is distributed under the GNU
General Public license (see COPYING).
Gforth runs under Unix, Win95, OS/2, and DOS and should not be hard to
port to other systems supported by GCC. This version has been tested
successfully on the following platforms:
i586-pc-linux-gnulibc1 (libc5)
i686-pc-linux-gnu (libc6)
alphaev56-unknown-linux-gnulibc1
alpha-dec-osf4.0b
mips-sgi-irix6.2
mips-dec-ultrix4.3
sparc-sun-sunos4.1.4
sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1
powerpc-unknown-linux-gnu
hppa1.1-hp-hpux10.20
i386-pc-cygwin32 (CygWin32 b18, Win95)
i386-pc-djgpp (DGJPP 2.0, MS-DOS 7.0 under Win95)
i386-pc-os2 (OS/2 3.0, EMX 0.9c)
User-visible changes between 0.3.0 and 0.4.0:
Operating environment:
Path handling: "." at the start of the path represents the directory
the nearest enclosing file resides in (if there is none: the working
directory). "~+" indicates the working directory. The default path
now has "." in front.
gforth and gforthmi is now more GNU standards compliant (wrt
command-line options).
New command-line-option: --die-on-signal
Errors are now directed to stderr.
Stdout is now unbuffered, if it is a tty.
User input device redirection (for filters) is now possible.
Ports:
Now runs on IRIX (and other MIPS-based systems without linker-flag -d).
Direct threading now works on PowerPC (20% speedup on 604e).
Better support for m68k (thanks to Andreas Schwab and Jorge Acereda).
It is possible to create executables that contain the image (for
non-OS systems).
Added a lot of embedded control (EC) stuff. Supported controllers and
small CPUs are Siemens C16x, 8086, 6502, Mixed-Mode's FPGA MISC, Bernd
Paysan's 4stack processor. Not finished: ShBoom alias PSC1000, H8,
AVR.
New, changed, and removed words:
Renamed F0 to FP0 (avoids unexpected behaviour in hex), added aliases
SP0, RP0, LP0 (recommended for future use) for S0, R0, L0.
Renamed PARSE-WORD into SWORD (PARSE-WORD is used with the meaning of
NAME in OpenBoot and dpans6 A.6.2.2008)
Added FPICK (suggested by Julian Noble).
Added EXCEPTION.
S" gforth" ENVIRONMENT? now produces the version-string.
Changed representation of types in struct package, and correspondingly
changed names.
Miscellaneous:
Plain text documentation is now available in doc/gforth.txt.
Documentation improvements.
Wordlist structure changed.
Added mini-oof.
Reorganized files: added directories and reorganized many files into
them; renamed files into 8.3 format to work with completely broken
systems (but there are again some files that won't work there).
Bug fixes.
Various changes without log information only known as mega-patches.
Cross compiler now also supports compilation only for undefined or forward
referenced words. Plugins to support some native code generation
(for PSC1000).
More files in the compat library.
User-visible changes between 0.2.1 and 0.3.0:
Stack overflow detection by memory protection on most systems
(allocation with mmap).
gforth.fi is now fully relocatable.
fully relocatable images are now easier to create.
added primitives K and UNDER+.
Win32 support.
Improved support for embedded controllers and other deprived environments.
some bug fixes.
added concept index; other documentation improvements.

Crazy as it seems, I recall not so long ago, about 6 months, there was
someone with a similar problem. IIRC he used to keep the kboard on the
monitor out of the way, and the monitor switched off. Everything always
worked until he turned the monitor on, and then the kboard locked up.
Seems it was related to the sudden electromagnetic interferance /
discharge / change which occurs when the capacitors in the monitor
charge, etc. I think the problem was solved by keeping the kboard
further away from the monitor.
There must be references to it on deja-news. I think it was in

hello,
While running x-windows if i make any change to the prefrences
like changing the background or changing the mouse cursor the changes
are not permanent i.e. is if i exit and restart x-windows prefrences
are back to normal.
In which file are the prefrences saved.
Is it a bug or is it supposed to be this way ?
i have red hat 5, kernel 2.x Linux.

edit your /etc/conf.modules file and add something like the following,
this is what I have in my /etc/conf.modules file. I used to get the same
messages but now it correctly finds them or I just turn them off.
alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp

If you do go that route, be sure to take along an RS-232 tester and
see that at least the some of the lights light up. Of course is
the receive portion is bad you still don't know without something
to connect. One of the most common ailments I've seen in terminals
is the transceivers being blown.
On things such as Wyse, you can send the board away for about $50
and get it fixed, send the terminal for about $85 for the same,
take it to a local shop and pay from $100 to $150, or
OR
you can spend about $2 bucks for a pair of the chips, and replace
them - they are the last chips before the RS-232 connector.
Depends on how good you are at soldering - 15 to 30 minutes.

The ext2 filesystem keeps track of how many times it has
been mounted and after a certain number of mounts it
automatically checks the drive for errors.
