I would not want it to remove a file I was using from under my feet,
though.
Mine removes files over 10 days old from up there, but I changed it to
do the daily stuff a little after 1AM local time.
The original poster may be used to Windows and does not leave his
machine on long enough to let the cron tasks be executed. In that
case, he should just leave it on 24/7 and need not file a trouble
report. Instead, perhaps he should do man cron and man tmpwatch and
look at /etc/crontab and /etc/cron.daily.

Deleting an open file just removes it's directory entry, leaving the
allocated inodes alone until the file is closed. The only danger in
deleting an open file is that the file _may_ be 'reopen'ed or 'open'ed
again by a process, which would not find it.
If the file is not open, then the danger is in deleting a file that
_may_ (soon) be used by a process, which will not find the file once
you delete it.
Prudence would suggest that you should not delete files in /tmp until
a reasonable time has elapsed since their creation or last use. Here,
'reasonable' depends on the system and it's uses; a personal
workstation might delete the contents of /tmp at startup, and at
frequent intervals after, while a server might only delete files in
/tmp after a number of days have passed since the file's use.

That seems to be a reasonable interval.

Subject: Re: MySQL and Red Hat 7
Date: Fri, 15 Dec 2000 14:37:54 GMT
Also, there is a problem with the installation of MySQL under RH7 that
will not allow anyone to access MySQL except root, and then only from
localhost.
Red Hat posted a patch that mentioned various permissions problems. I
applied the patch, and it still does not work. I think it might have
something to do with the damn xinetd but I'm not sure. I give up until
there is more on this on the Internet. Someone is bound to figure this
out. As it is, it doen't matter what my permissions or user settings
are. As a matter of fact, When I go into the database I try to change
everything to what I need and it does NOTHING! I go back to look at the
tables and permissions later and there is no change. I think it could
also be in the file permission for the database files themselves but I
am lost at this point. Obviously the RH techs who thought they fixed it
didn't actually try to use MySQL. They decided they had the problem
figured out, and fixed what they thought was wrong... and never tried
to use it later. In the mean time my Web-Based E-mail (based on MySQL
and PHP) doesn't work. The PHP works just fine, but when it tries to
access a MySQL table it is always denied host xxxxxx is not allowed to
access MySQL.... hell, just for shits and giggles I even went into my
PHP scripts to change the user that it accessed MySQL under and the
same error was returned.

I am dealing with the Linksys EtherFast 10/100 PCM100 PCMCIA card which
seems to set up fine, although I am still testing. I may be getting an
internal card of the same description, which must be what you have. I found
information about the internal card in FAQS on the www.linksys.com site, but
of course don't have the card yet. They mentioned the fact that the
controller chip had changed in the newer units and they were writing another
tulip driver. Maybe this is the problem. I may have more to report after
getting the internal card. I'm using, incidentally, Slackware4.0.

well, you could use zip (it makes pkzip type archive) or gzip which is
a lot faster than bzip2 in decompression.

Is it always tty1? It is normal for X to dump messages to the terminal
where X was started. You can change where the messages are dumped, it's
part of logging. I wouln't change it though... sometimes it's helpful

In some ways it is a pain, but in most ways it is easier (a single
location for setting up or denying access to your system without having
to screw with acl's (which are a pain in the ass) It does take a little
getting used to... plus if you are the first one trying to come up with
the access file then it can be a pain... but if you look at the old
entries in inetd, then it's pretty straight forward.

those files probably got corrupted during your power out... you need to
reinstall them somehow. To do that you will need a directory tree from
the original install and install the proper versions.. it could also be
problems with some of the links.
My suggestion: reinstall (you did have a separate partition for your
different system parts?) If not then it's a lot of work... otherwise if
there wasn't much important on your system then just do a complete
reinstall. I've been down the road of rebuilding a broke system... it's
a continuous circle... every time you fix one part in the serial you
find something else broke.... eventually you get it to work (sorta) and
then after finding more and more I ended up reinstalling anyway...
Log onto the drive with DOS, backup anything you need to back up, and
then reinstall...

Assuming you have something like this listed in your
/etc/hosts file:
127.0.0.1 localhost
175.23.0.1 ifcooh ifcooh.yourdomain.com
24.231.45.1 ifcone ifcone.yourdomain.com
24.231.45.2 gwmain gwmain.yourdomain.com
Where ifcooh and ifctwo are the two NICs, and gwmain is a
gateway host accessable on the ethernet connected to ifcone.
And this in your /etc/networks file:
127.0.0.0 loopback
175.23.0.0 netooh
24.231.45.0 netone
You can use the ifconfig command like this
/sbin/ifconfig lo localhost broadcast 127.0.0.255
/sbin/ifconfig eth0 ifcooh broadcast 175.23.0.255
/sbin/ifconfig eth1 ifcone broadcast 24.231.45.255
Then you can use the route command, like this
/sbin/route add -net loopback netmask 255.0.0.0 dev lo
/sbin/route add -net netooh netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth0
/sbin/route add -net netone netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth1
You can also add routing for individual hosts:
/sbin/route add gwmain dev eth1
And you can use that as a default gateway,
/sbin/route add default gw gwmain dev eth1
Or, you can just default everything to that interface, and
hope that something on that ethernet will route it:
/sbin/route add default dev eth1

Subject: Configuring a Squid proxy server
Date: Fri, 15 Dec 2000 15:30:08 -0000
I have tried to setup a Squid proxy server version 2.3 STABLE4. But the
access speed of the internet connection is a lot worse than before I
connected the cache. The server I'am running the cache on is a P166, 96MB
RAM 2x4.3GB SCSI Hard drives, with the cache on the second drive. Our
internet connection is itself via a cache which we provides us with a
filtered service for education use. We have approx 60 pc's sharing this
internet connection (256K = 4 ISDN channels) normally only 20 of those
pc's would be connected to internet at any one time. When I look at the
access log I get quite a lot fo cache hits, but one the client pc's the web
pages appear blank for a very long time and sometimes time out.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance
Richard Stevenson

I heard there were security issues with the old one, and xinetd was
more secure.

Why do you want to remove my /tmp/.X0-lock, /tmp/.X11-unix, and /tmp/ssh-*?
