Yes, it was used when connected to a mainframe terminal session and could be
used as an 'interrupt' type command that would allow you to issue system
commands - like log off, when the app was hanging or otherwise 'acting up'
It probably had more uses, but that would take a mainframe user to answer...

AFAIK, Linux doesn't yet support "capabilities" or ACLs, thus there is no such thing
as "Administration" capabilities. You are either root or you are not root. Perhaps the
closest thing you could do is create a non-root user in root's group, such that the
group permissions and ownerships apply.

Hi
I need to find an multi-port, serial expansion solution for my Linux
box. The box must be able to run at least 16 serial ports. On SCO
machines I have always used Specialix SI-XIO but I am having a devil
of a job finding drivers and getting them to work. Is there a
'standard' brand that Cladera 2.2 Linux will run with the minimum of
hassle?
Many thanks

The only way to actually do anything is to work collectively. Yet
selfish cretins opposed to redistribution keep asking socialists
and left-wingers "Why don't you change the world all by yourself?"
so in fact they *do* expect others to do the blatantly impossible

To the best of my knowledge, no DOS or Windows executed any
code on a floppy to determine its format. Boot sector viruses worked
by inserting themselves into or substituting themselves for the
program automatically run on a disk when it is used to boot the
system: for a floppy, the boot sector; for a hard disk, the boot
sector of a partition and/or the master boot record of the whole hard
disk. Note that the "NON-SYSTEM DISK . . ." error message printed
when you attempt to boot off a non-bootable floppy is actually
printed by such a program, and thus such floppies are infectable.
Note that the above happens before the operating system is
loaded. Therefore, the virus is loaded into memory, running,
spreading itself, and doing its other dirty work BEFORE Linux or
any other operating system -- or for that matter an anti-virus
program -- has a chance to start using its security. Therefore,
even if such viruses are incapable of loading under Linux, they
are still of concern to anyone running Linux on the same hardware
platform as the viruses were written for (in most cases, x86, but
I could see the same thing being a significant issue for 68040 and
PowerPC users).

A Trojan CD-R originating as such probably would not get very
far, but imagine a combination executable infector and boot/MBR
infector (such things do exist) infecting the computers of the company
which duplicates CD's for commercial distribution. Therefore, I
always turn off CD AutoRun/AutoPlay, but Windows 95/98 and MacOS 8.x
(which has the same thing!) make turning this off rather unintuitive
(and in the case of Windows, also unreliable), and Windows NT 4.0
makes it positively excruciating to turn this off: it defaults to ON,
must be turned off on a PER-USER basis, can only be turned off by the
user who is logged on at the moment, and can only be turned off if the
user has administrative privileges! -- at least, this is what I have
been able to determine so far.
One detail: AUTORUN.INF does not contain executable code,
but it does have the ability to specify automatic execution of a
program (usually, but not always, named AUTORUN.EXE). The equivalent
thing under MacOS is named something else, but I can't remember what
(and the MacOS AutoPlay option is set in the QuickTime control panel,
of all things).
Put in my vote AGAINST such a horror ever being implemented
in Linux or any desktop environment (including Windows and Mac
emulators/executors) ever ported to it. I don't mind porting good
ideas (such things do exist) from these operating systems to Linux
and/or its desktop environments, but CD AutoPlay is NOT a good idea
(and making it the default behavior is extremely bad). Maybe audio CD
AutoPlay is safe, but even most real CD players don't start playing a
disk you put into them until you press the Play button.

Actually, although MacOS (to the best of my knowledge) does
not need to execute code on a floppy upon insertion to determine what
format it is in, it CAN be tricked into doing so anyway. The WDEF
virus was the first of these; MDEF and/or CDEF (I forgot which) came
later. MacOS 7.0 fixed the bug that allowed WDEF to work, but I am
not sure whether it fixed it so that the other viruses of this type
are also no longer able to work.
In addition, on other types of media, MacOS needs to load a
SCSI driver (not sure if this applies to IDE hard disks, but wouldn't
be surprised if it does) for the media and drive before it will mount
the media (Microsoft isn't the only company to come out with brain-
dead ideas). I haven't yet heard of a virus being written to spread
this way, but I have read about system crashes/lockups due to
insertion of removable media containing a driver incompatible with
another such driver already running on the system. (I read about this
a few years ago in a MacWorld or MacUser review about removable media
disks, when SyQuest 88 Mbyte cartridges and drives were fairly new --
some OEM drives based upon this "standard" were egregious offenders.
I have also had MacOS users tell me of similar crashes occurring when
connecting a Mac to hard disks with incompatible SCSI drivers.)
To get this back to Linux, what does LinuxPPC do with Mac
media and SCSI drivers? Ignore them? (Never could figure out why
MacOS needed these excrescences anyway.) Or does it have to run them
in order to be able to make use of the media, like MacOS does? (Any
operating system which uses this "feature" is going to be subject to
the same bugs and potential viruses that MacOS is.) I could
understand having to use the one on the boot media if it also
functions analogously to a PC MBR (not sure if it does), but having to
use another one for each media (especially removable media) is a
sure security hole (and demonstrated bug incubator).
(Maybe I should be posting this to the LinuxPPC newsgroup, but
I didn't even figure out that I should be reading that newsgroup until
I am in the middle of a vacation and away from access to my new news
server, and not about to try to pull my hair out trying to pull
messages or groups from my old one.)

They shouldn't need to, but some of them do -- see above about
CD AutoRun and Mac SCSI drivers, and about the MacOS bug(s) that
allowed WDEF and similar "floppy AutoRun" viruses to work.

Er . . . Excuse me. My most humble apologies in advance, but
I can't read binary very well. How am I supposed to give boot sector
code (let alone any larger binary) "a good eyeballing" reliably?

That's what I would have thought, but for some brain-dead
reason, Apple did it anyway -- not for floppies (er, I mean "not on
purpose for floppies"), but for other media types.

And, in particular, an IBM mainframer at that -- I work with HP's, and by a
strange twist-of-fate, actually found out about this "key" on IBM 327x
terminals -- our system has to talk to a couple of IBM's for one application
we service, but all the "talking" is done programmatically, so we don't even
have an IBM terminal. Other details of the story include the fact the
original programmer of this system has since passed away, yadda yadda yadda,
and now we're looking at upgrading the OS on our HP to be Y2k compliant, and
we know for a fact the SNA communication subsystem has changed.
To make the long story above short, I found out that when our application
makes the initial connection, it isn't really connected to "the mainframe",
but rather to the "logical terminal controller" [or whatever IBM calls it];
to "get the system's attention" and actually start a session, a user would
press the SYS REQ key on a real IBM terminal. (our program simply sends the
relavent key information "as if" a user pressed the key...) Once inside the
application on the mainframe, pressing the SYS REQ key again could do a
variaty of things, including returning to the initial "unconnected/un-owned"
screen...

Use the ES1370 or ES1371 sounddriver, depending on what chip is mounted
on your board. You'll find them in the sound-section of your

ES1370 or ES1371 that's all.

So this is your answer to the question "Are you sharing YOUR wealth?"
After all this time, whining and crying about how everyone should have
the same "wealth", we find out that you won't share your "wealth" with
someone less fortunate than yourself. Does the word "HYPOCRITE" mean
