With Win98, I've found this the sure cure:

use regedit, and go to

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSer\Services\VxD\VNSETUP

right-click in right-hand panel, and add this "dword":

    EnablePlainTextPassword
        with a value of 00000001


Too bad, you have to do this on each Wimpers machine.

Subject: Sudden loss in performance?
Date: Mon, 13 Sep 1999 19:43:50 GMT

I'm wondering if anyone can help me diagnose a
problem I'm having with my Linux box.  It's
actually not so much a problem, as it is
curiosity.

Basic stats first: This box is a Tekram p6b40d
mainboard, with two 350mhz CPUs, 196MB ram,
Mandrake 6.0, and I've been running
Distributed.net's rc5des client on it since May
8th.

Since I've upgraded to the 2.2.10 kernel (and
beyond), I've noticed that the rc5des client is
showing some very odd behavior.

For those of you that run rc5des, you know that
everytime it uploads it's finished work packets,
it spits back a report of how many keys per second
it averaged.  Prior to kernel 2.2.10 I was
averaging between 990K to 1,100K keys per second.
Rarely did my output drop much below that, unless
I was using the box heavily.

Since the day I upgraded to kernel version
2.2.10,  rc5des has had some wildly fluctuating
performance. Now, on occassion, the program will
still be able to output upto 1,100K keys per
second.  But more often, when I've checked up on
the box, I see that it's only output approximately
100K  keys per second.

I've been so busy at work lately, that about the
only time I've been on the computer is the quick 2
second check to see how rc5des is running - so
it's not like I'm causing the sudden poor
performance by hogging the CPU with Shishen Sho or
anything. ;)

So, my question is ('bout time I got to it, eh?)
what's suddenly eating up all my CPU cycles that
would normally be allocated to rc5des?

'top' shows that rc5des is the number one and
number two process.  There's nothing odd in the
logs that would alert me to a problem.  I've tried
re-compiling the kernel, as well as downloading a
new rc5des client.

So I am at a loss to even how to go about
troubleshooting this.  Got any ideas?

Thanks,
  Thom

Hi!

I'm looking for a schedular / calendar application for the linux console

all the appointments which are due this week / month. I use the schedular
of MS Outlook a lot at work and I would like to have something similar for
the linux console, I'm not interested in X applications.

It does not need all the fancy features of the Outlook schedular, as I
don't use them much anyway, I'm just looking for a plain console schedular

I've tried SO 5.1 on my Win98 machine and really liked the integrated

formatting.  If you have the bandwidth, download it.  If not, order the CD.

I didn't keep it, because I was going to upgrade to Office 2000.  Now that
I've seen MS's offering, I prefer Star Office.

What has probably happened is that KMail has transferred all your mail 
into a file called inbox in ~/mail. Annoying, but you can open ~/mail/inbox

Subject: upgrading kernel
Date: 13 Sep 1999 19:11:40 GMT

Greetings. 

I'm rather new to this whole sysadmin side of things and just wanted some advice more 
than anything. I'm running RH6.0, with the stock kernal (2.2.5) I believe, perhaps 
2.2.5-12, I think? Regardless, I havn't changed it from the initial install.

I've moved back to campus now, and am preparing to plug my machine back up to the net 
full time now, and am looking at a number of security issues. One, I noted on the Red 
Hat errata website that they upgraded the kernel to 2.2.5-22 because of a security 
bug. Now, since the latest stable version of the kernel is 2.2.12, and I have to 
upgrade anyway, should I just go ahead and upgrade to 2.2.12? It seems logical, I was 
just wondering if there was anything I missed. 

Also, having read the security-HOWTO, is there any other place that might be worth 
investigating to secure my machine against outside intrusion that isn't so obvious?

Thanks for your advice,

Chris Greer

They are probably buying the boxes directly from one of the Taiwanese
vendors that make them.

The system sure looks a lot like the Compaq Presarios that are
manufactured by Arima <http://www.fringeweb.com/laptops.html#Arima>.

The following web sites provide useful info on who actually makes the
laptops; they would doubtless be interested in who is providing the
"N-Flux" machine, and in adding it to their web site.
  <http://www.fringeweb.com/laptops.html>
  <http://www.lyngemark.com/jungle/>

A caveat that is visible at the web site is thus: 
  "Service Location: Warranty service is provided at 15695 N. 83rd
  Way, Scottsdale AZ 85260."

There is a tendancy for part of the pricing of "pricier" systems to
reflect the availability of service through a somewhat wider network
of vendors.

The terms and conditions at <http://www.thelinuxstore.com/terms.cfm>
are also pretty "paranoid in favor of the vendor."  Item 4.2 is nicely
representative:

   "Risk of Loss. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, delivery shall
   be complete upon transfer of possession to common carrier, FOB
   shipping point. Whereupon all risk of loss, damage or destruction
   to the goods shall pass to Purchaser."

There's no particular reason to consider them vastly *less* reputable
than anyone else, but they have only been in business for a few months
as a Linux vendor, which puts them firmly in the category of
"Companies joining the Linux Hype Bandwagon."
<http://www.thelinuxstore.com/corporate/milestones.cfm> is greatly
relevant in documenting this...

If this is a question...the answer is yes.  Make sure VFAT support is
compiled into the kernel.  While your at it, you might as well make sure
FAT
and MSDOS support is also compiled in, that will round-out M$ support.
Then you can do:  mount -t [vfat,msdos] /dev/floppy /[mntpoint].  You
will also be able to mount M$ filesystems on the HD.

Hope this helped.

Oracle was claiming last fall that Oracle Financials (version 10?)
would be released for Linux some time in 1999.

They haven't been trumpeting its release just yet.

SAP AG, however have released version 4.0B, which runs atop Red Hat
Linux 6.0, with a custom-configured kernel 2.2.11.  (per OSS note
171356).  

According to OSS note 171371, R/3 on Linux is certified by SAP
LinuxLab to run on several Compaq ProLiant models, with either 4GB or
8GB of RAM, and up to 8-way SMP.  (I'm describing the configs
generically; only a specific set of models and configurations are
validated to work...)

This is untrue, as the typical desktop user has his or her machine set up
and configured by someone else: for home users, it is the retailer and for
business users it is the organization's IS department.  Once set up, Linux
can be just as easy to use as Windows, if not easier because of a distinct
lack of error messages like "Error at 0x08ba542a in: Unknown" or somesuch,
which word recently gave my SO when she tried to spellcheck a document.  I
think she figured out that this was Word's way of telling you, in plain
English, that you were trying to spell check a file created originally with
WordPerfect, though neither of us is really sure.

This is true, but the average Linux sysadmin should know about all or most
of these things.  In the same vein, someone who uses Windows does not need
to know about the registry, system folder, control panel or any of that
stuff, but somone who administers Winodws desktops should.

The confusion, I think, has come because up to now, most Linux users have
also been Linux admins.  What Linux needs to become a mainstream desktop OS
is not an easier-to-use GUI, but someone who will adminiter the box.  For
home users, Linux may be an even better option than Windows, because Linux
*can* be set up to require minimal maintenance (most people won't need to
run sendmail or apache, so we can turn those off by default in the consumer
desktop  distribution).  A factory installed and configured Linux
installation will probably run a lot longer than a factory Windows install
before needing any intervention, especially since Linux can be made to
maintain itself to a large extent.

This is why reasoning by analogy backfires most of the time; too many
people try to push the analogy farther than it was meant to and don't
understand the limited comparison that is being made.

I believe that the original point was that the early acceptance of cars was
*not* because they were easier to use than horses and carriages, which is
what was previously suggested.

As to why cars *did* catch on, at first they were novelties and playthings
of the wealthy.  Ultimately, they would get to the point where they were
faster and more economical than horses and could be maintained by urbanites
who had increasingly less contact and experience with horses.  You can't
park a horse on the street overnight or put it in a garage.  The average
city resident didn't have enough acreage to maintain a team of horses.
That probaly had a lot to do with the adoption of motor transport.  None of
this has anything whatsoever to do with Windows or Linux, the analogy was
limited to the initial adoption of the car and ease of learning/use issues.

Have you looked into the possibility of using IP Chains?
They could probably do what you need, by redirecting HTTP requests from a
specific site to a different port or process.
