Subject: tar vs afio usage - help please
Date: Mon, 08 May 2000 20:58:48 GMT
I'm trying to changeover from using 'tar' for backups to 'afio' as it
has better recovery capabilities if the archive file gets corrupted.
Currently I'm using 'tar' as follows:
tar czvf BACKUP.tar.gz -T FILELIST.LIST
but haven't been able to figure out how to get 'afio' to accept input
from the FILELIST.LIST file. I've read the man pages and searched
DejaNews but haven't figured it out. Can someone give me the correct
usage for this? TIA

Not for stuff I wrote myself. I had installed a number of
rpm's, and wound up srewing up the Gnome Help Browser,
which would die with a segmentation fault every time I
tried to run it. I reinstalled Red Hat 6.0 to fix my
system, but I'd have liked to figure out what in particular
caused the Gnome Help Browser to die.
So does this mean there's no way to pull information from
core files without having the source code and a binary with
debugging information? What's the format of a core file? I
assume it's the memory image of the errant process, but
does it include the stack and register status at the moment
of failure? If so, at the end?

Subject: asynchronous serial communication
Hi, I am trying to write some code in C that will allow my linux box to
communicate with a CDPD modem over a serial port. The communication
protocol is quite simple, but for some reason the code that I have
written does not seem to be working. The modem communicates
asynchronously with the host(my linux box). I am sending a null string
and the modem should send a reply that it has received this null string.
SEND: 0xA3, 0x01, 0xA3
SHOULD RECEIVE THIS REPLY: 0xA3, 0x41, 0xA3
I know that the code is sending the null string and that the modem is
replying because I see the LEDs on the modem indicating this, but my
code is not reading in the data. I have attached my code below and any
help would be greatly appreciated.

You have failed to tell us what Distro you are using!
I ran into a similar problem with a new install of RedHat 6.2. The new
portmap is secure. What you have to do is add them to your
/etc/hosts.allow file on the server. What worked for me is the
following.
portmap: 192.168.100.
rpc.mountd: 192.168.100.
Of course, substitute your network addresses/wildcards.
Good luck,

Date: Mon, 08 May 2000 21:48:53 GMT
Sounds like a driver problem. If the driver were loaded, you'd almost
certainly get an eth0. Try looking at dmesg and see if there's
anything strange. Sometimes, cheapo ethernet boards can be hard to
configure. If there's a configuration disk that came with the board,
look at the utilities on that disk. Sometimes, those boards come
configured as plug-n-play. I had one that would allow me to turn of
pnp and set the irq and address by hand. That fixed my problem. If
you're real lucky and this is an older board, there may be jumpers to
do this for you. Still, the best bet is to go buy a better board.
I've had good results with D-Link and Linksys and they're both
relativly cheap.

What is the "reccommended method" of binding a program to only one
interface/port combination without first determining the address of that
interface? The ip(7) man page says that you should either bind to a
specific address or to INADDR_ANY (which is effectively 0.0.0.0). Say,
for example, I have an situation which requires me to run two different
daemons on the same port number of different interfaces of the same
machine....

src.rpms are just source. They have to be 'built' before they can
actually installed in usuable condition.
rpm -bb /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/gcc.spec
rpm -Uvv /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/gcc*
There are other ways too. See the man page. Or get a binary rpm.

Subject: Re: Toshiba Laptop and Linux
Date: Mon, 08 May 2000 23:31:48 GMT
Actually, my intention was to suggest that
you probably CAN get an X Window system running,
although I was speculating since I haven't done
it on my Toshiba yet. In mentioning leaving it
off, I was meaning to suggest that you may not
need it to accomplish the Fortran programming,
if that is your main goal.
As I mentioned, I am very new to using Linux
although I have been working at it for the last
few months. One thing I have learned is that
Windows 3.1/95/98 and Linux are vastly different
systems in both approach and execution and that
they are not directly comparable (no flame
intended to anyone). Having taken at face value
the press reports and the boosterism of some
devotees (again, no flame intended) that Linux
is superior to Windows 2000, that it will run on
a 386, and that it is free, I got a used Dell
90 MHz Pentium with a 1 Gb HD and then failed in
trying to do a routine install of either RedHat
or Corel. (Just as your Toshiba runs Windows 95,
my Dell runs Windows 98 just fine.) Since then
I have learned a bit more about Linux and a lot
more about the distance between the reporting
about Linux and the reality of using it. I
could go on (actually at some length), but
suffice to say that my limited experience
suggests that you can get a basic console
installation of Linux to run just fine; you
probably can get a limited installation of the
X Window system to run; and you probably have no
hope of getting KDE or Gnome to run.
One final note: I don't mean to suggest that the
absence of a GUI is necessarily a limitation (at
least from my perspective). I recall when
Windows 3.1 was introduced that I didn't like
the GUI. In general, a GUI is much easier to
learn than the command line but much slower to
use for an experienced user. (There's a reason
human speech developed to replace pointing and
grunting.)
