You could run a telnet server on some port besides 23. A port
that the firewall will let through. In /etc/inetd.conf:
bogon stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.telnetd
In /etc/services:
bogon 8000/tcp
This will run a telnetd on port 8000. I take no responsibility
for this if you get in trouble with the local security folk. And
it would be more secure to do this with ssh, but that's a whole
other story.

Another reason that you can use is that by using a *nix box, such as Linux, you
do not have to have multiple logins on the windows clients that are logging in.
if you are in a college enviroment then using unix is DEFINATLY the way to go
as you can easily have everyone check their email through a telnet window
(pine),,and if the "powers that be" (sounds like it should be 'the morons that
be":)) insist on using exhange so they can use their exchange clients then you
have another weapon in that any "exchange client" is capable of connecting to
any IMAP compliant mail server (Linux has an IMAP protocol that ships with most
distributiuons) so they can still use their outlook mail programs to check
their email!:)
Hope this helps :)

Right. And a great deal of commercial software is not of use outside
the narrow domain it serves. Often, the potential burden of making
this source available will serve to push companies into more proprietary
positions. This is not good for free software *or* GPL'd software.

Exactly. Let's not. GPL'd software is a good thing, but it's not free.
You don't know how many people I've had to stop from producing
proprietary
works based on GPL'd software. Most seem to disregard the license and
do
it anyway. They need to be made aware of the potential harm they can do
to themselves and the companies they work for.
A sad knee-jerk reaction we've seen has been total ban of GPL'd
software,
even for legal uses. Expect Microsoft to use this FUD tactic with CEOs
and CIOs as they become more desperate.

Rich... you snipped the context off the end of that phrase. What I

was that free software didn't start with Linux (although it has been
very
successful with it) and that many of us have dedicated our entire lives
to the cause of making computing more widely available.
Understand, I don't think there is evil intent by most GPL advocates but
rather a lot of ignorance about the details of the licenses.

No. I don't see John's activism this way at all.
Most programmers don't really enjoy any proprietary interests, their
employers do. They're usually underpaid, overworked and given
ridiculous
schedules to meet. The temptation to use GPL'd software, even snippets,
is great and many do.
The message must get out that this is illegal and can severely damage
ones
reputation and future opportunities.
I see John as spreading this message. Linus could help, but won't.

I don't have a problem with this. I have a problem with the confusion
that more novice programmers have WRT the use of GPL'd software for
derived works.
I don't believe that this is being communicated adequately and when some
people raise valid concerns they are personally attacked and disregarded
as bigots. IMHO, that is very irresponsible behaviour.

One to follow Linus's ad hominem of labeling John a bigot.
Perhaps you find my statement uncomfortable, but I believe it
to be truthful.
Read it how you like, Linus is so tied up with his works under
GPL that he consistently dismisses concerns about GPL as an
unimportant non-issue.

OK, how is that saving being done? When conmverting down from 80 to 64
bits, is the number being rounded or are the extra bits just being
truncated?

Try another version of modutils. I experienced the same problem
with what I think were the -22 version I downloaded from the RedHat
update directory. When I fell back to a version -3 I got somewhere
else, that version of depmod worked and the pcmcia modules
loaded OK.
Now I am having problems with 'no dependency information' for
my sound and ppp modules. As a fresh dependency file is being
created, or at least touched, on boot, I am assuming this
message is a spurious error.
Next I'm going to try the tarball from kernel.org. Maybe homebrew
will cure my problems.
Another user advises me that the updates for 2.2.1 cause problems
it you need to boot 2.0.36. These utilities just aren't smart enough.
They should either be backward compatible or refuse to run on the
wrong version. The kernel runs like a Timex, but the stuff that goes
with it is a mess. We are caught between a rock and a hard place.
Microsoft demands monolithic control. If you don't let them con-
figure everything their way, just so, your system is unstable.
Linux is just the opposite: a giant legacy system over which no one
has any control other than the kernel. It is more difficult than
Windows to get to a stable state.
By the way, when you get depmod working take a look at the
time on the file it creates. The time on my dependency files seems
to be wrong. Also I have noticed that the init scripts are not
creating the link to module-info as they should.

I understand that, but simple longevity doesn't necessarily mean that
one's position is more correct than another's. I simply question the
relevance. Besides, using one's weight to impress one's opinions upon
others isn't particularly nice.
>Understand, I don't think there is evil intent by most GPL advocates

I think that assumption is made, yes, and I suspect in some cases it
holds true, but I think someone like John comes across as being heavy
on the "you young folks just don't understand" refrain. That's the
(vague, admittedly) impression I get reading his positions regarding
the GPL, anyway.
Whatever trips his trigger, but he sounds like he's being more than a
little on the condescending side.

Uh-uh. I strongly disagree. Not the way he's been doing it. Go read
the crap he's been posting there. Using a scattergun to shoot at all
who question his hitherto-largely-unjustified conclusions is no way to
advocate a position.
Two wrongs don't make a right. Right?

I guess our viewpoints differ substantially.

I don't understand this temptation. I'd rather write my own, or use
something which I know about internally already. Introducing software
from outside is a risky (and time-consuming) venture, at least if you
are to incorporate and document it properly.
I write code because it's fun to do so, even for my employer. If it
isn't fun for others, or if they can't cut it, perhaps they shouldn't
be writing code.
>The message must get out that this is illegal and can severely damage

Yes, that is an important message. I think it's obvious from reading
the license, but it's possible it isn't to someone. <shrug>
>I see John as spreading this message. Linus could help, but won't.
Yet John seems to be focusing on the FSF, and not the ramifications of
the GPL as a legal document. Why is the FSF relevant in this context?
>I don't believe that this is being communicated adequately and when some

Seems to me that John was making attacks as well, and that those were
largely responsible for the flak he received in turn. And the things
that were said were so mild that his "your attacking me" accusations
come across as petty.
This is Usenet. Learn to deal with it.

I can see how being called a bigot could be considered an attack, but
I'm not certain that it isn't warranted. I need to think about it a
bit more. Brett's rantings have admittedly made me somewhat sensitive
to overgeneralized anti-GPL statements (even though I'm not really a
pro-GPL poerson per se), and I might be acting somewhat unfairly here.

Do as you will, but remember that Usenet exists and works well because
accepted conventions regarding topicality are generally followed.

That seems like the file /usr/include/linux/fcntl.h is somehow
corrupted. This is either a problem of having unpacked a defective
kernel source tree or not having one of the required packages (see
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes) installed.
IMHO, your options are:
- Check /usr/include/linux/fcntl.h with an editor. Maybe there's
really something to fix.
- Get a new kernel source archive (not only a patch but the whole
archive), rm -r /usr/src/linux and unpack that archive freshly.
- Check /usr/src/linux/Documentation/Changes for the software packages
required and look if you have installed the appropriate versions.
Hope this helps a little bit,
best regards
