It makes perfect sense. However, it doesn't have an instantiation.
Personally, i think Bertrand Russell made a major mistake by introducing
the term "the" into the formal system of Principia Mathematica. It is
a word of such implicit complexity that using it as a primitive was
bound
to complicate the system of theorems beyond reasonable measure. As
occurred.

I have an increasing number of Redhat systems to maintain.
Is there a tool that allows to issue commands on a number of computers
simultaneously, e.g. doing a crontab -e on all machines
in a group without having to login into every machine and doing
the commands by hand?

Why is it that so many arguments in public discussions consist of a
verifiable

people

Most atheists i know declaim the truth of unverifiable philosophical
axioms.
In other words, they have imaginary friends with no personality, except
perhaps their own.

Then we should be debating in Chinese (or Esperanto), not English.
When my Dad (an avowed agnostic) says "atheist" he means "believes not"
(Esperante, "kredas ne") and when he says agnostic, he means "does not
believe" ("ne kredas").
Mi ne kredas ke ni ne kredas, mi kredas ke ni kredas ne.

I for one am well aware of the existence, intent, and defects of modal
logics.
They are unnecessary. It suffices to introduce modal terms as regular
items
of nonmodal mathematics, for example as elements or functions (as
convenient)
in set theory.

On that we agree.

The fact remains that atheists believe in the nonexistence of God.

Which is consistent with Aaron's statement of the three options.
Were you trying to argue that there's only room for a certain

That's not quite true. You cannot claim what you cannot express.

Aaron claimed the same thing, so why are you beating the same dead

Subject: libc on bootdisk
Date: Thu, 8 Feb 2001 09:53:50 -0000
I am building a set of Linux boot disks.
I currently have a boot disk which boots via lilo and contains an ext2
filesystem, and a root disk which contains a compressed ext2 filesystem
image
I set the kernel ramdisk word to look for the root filesystem at block zero
on the second disk.
I'm a bit short of space on the root disk whereas I've got loads of space on
the boot disk, so I'd like to transfer something eg libc to the boot disk.
Does anyone know of a way I can do this and still use the compressed
filesystem on the root disk (I'm uncompressing it to ramdisk)?

Is there a web site that hosts binary as well as the

Subject: ssh rsa fails?
Date: Thu, 8 Feb 2001 02:46:29 -0800
I have just installed openssh-2.3.0p1 on my Redhat 6.0 box, (I also
installed openssl-0.9.6 for the libraries, and zlib, because these are
required for openssh).
When the install takes place there is a public and private key automatically
created for the server as /etc/ssh/ssh_host_key.pub and
/etc/ssh/ssh_host_key.
I log in as the user ("admin) and run ssh-keygen. I enter a passphrase of
"abc". It creates identity and identity.pub in the ".ssh" subfolder. I copy
identity.pub to "authorized_keys" in the same folder. Then I copy identity
(the private key) over to another machine. From that machine I use Terraterm
Pro to attach to the SSH box, and enter a passphrase of "abc". The problem
is that the rsa authentication fails every single time.
So I go into "sshd -d" debug mode so I can see the error messages. All
messages indicate everything is normal until I enter the passphrase at the
client end to try to connect. Then I get the "failed rsa" message.
Then I try attaching to the SSH box with a clear-text password (ie: not the
passphrase, but the actual password of the "admin" account on the Linux SSH
box). I do this with Terraterm Pro. Everything works fine. However, I am not
using SSH!
Can anyone give me some suggestions as to how to solve this?
My permissions on the SSH Linux box for /home/admin/.ssh are "755". My
permissions on identity are "600". My permissions on identity.pub are "664".
And on authorized_keys I have tried "664" and "777". Also, in the
/etc/ssh/ssh_config and /etc/ssh/sshd_config files I have said to use RSA
authentication, and have also put in the correct path for the host key.
Thanks,
Tom

Compiling applications from scratch should make them faster.
compile a new kernel, with only the options you need...
see that only the services you require are running..
And.. getting some more ram should help pretty much

Subject: Very weird emacs initialization behaviour.
Date: Thu, 08 Feb 2001 11:17:17 GMT
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Something very weird has happend to my emacs setup on linux.
In both default-frame-list and initial-frame-list ( for the linux guys
who aren't that familiar these are variables that are used by
emacs to tell you its default properties -- color text etc. ),
I try to set the width and height.
Yet emacs seems to just ignore these variables ( even though they
don't ignore anything else ). Change them and the startup properties
remain the same.
Now here is the funny thing:
I found the binaries for linux.
They are /usr/bin/emacs
and /usr/bin/emacs-20.7
If I type in the full name for /usr/bin/emacs it ignores
the properties. If I type in /usr/bin/emacs-20.7 or emacs-20.7
it accespts the properties!
Ok so I look closer
/usr/bin/emacs is a symbol link to /etc/alternatives/emacs.
Typing in /etc/alternatives/emacs -- same problem.
Take a close look at /atc/alternatives/emacs-20.7, it's a symbolic
link to /usr/bin/emacs!
Delete /usr/bin/emacs.
Create a new link /usr/bin/emacs to /usr/bin/emacs-207.
The new link has problems!
I copy /usr/bin/emacs-20.7 to /usr/bin/emacs.
The copied version still has the problem!
I delete .Xdefaults. That didn't help.
So the question is why is emacs behaving this way.
What is so special about the name?

To put it simply, the logic behind it is this: "If God doesn't need a
creator then neither does the universe". To believe in God you have to believe
that something can exist without being created (i.e. God) so that applies
equally to the Universe.
One simple question: If God doesn't need a creator, then why does the
Universe need one?

...and that is why.
Lilo (and grub) allow you to have multiple kernels as options, so you
should always leave one in there that you know will work.
You should have installed your new kernel as vmlinuz-2.4.1, the
System.map as System.map-2.4.1 and edited yout /etc/lilo.conf file to
add a *new* kernel option which you can chose at boot time. Once you
know it works Ok you can then set this to be the default (if you wish).

H: "Having found not one single carbon monoxide leak on the entire
premises, it is my belief, and Willard concurs, that the reason
you folks feel listless and disoriented is simply because
you are lazy, stupid people"
I: Loren Petrich's 2-week stubborn refusal to respond to the
challenge to describe even one philosophical difference
between himself and the communists demonstrates that, in fact,
Loren Petrich is a COMMUNIST ***hole
J: Other knee_jerk reactionaries: billh, david casey, redc1c4,
The retarded sisters: Raunchy (rauni) and Anencephielle (Enielle),
also known as old hags who've hit the wall....
A: The wise man is mocked by fools.
B: Jet Silverman plays the fool and spews out nonsense as a
method of sidetracking discussions which are headed in a
direction that she doesn't like.
C: Jet Silverman claims to have killfiled me.
D: Jet Silverman now follows me from newgroup to newsgroup
...despite (C) above.
E: Jet is not worthy of the time to compose a response until
her behavior improves.

adultery while concurrently committing adultery with Tammy Hahn.
