According the ANSI C standard, the compiler is free to make
string constants read-only (IOW, it may make them "constants").
Whether string constants are writable or not is platform
dependant, and a progran that writes to them is therefore buggy.

Alternatively, strdup() is handy for in this situation:
string2 = strdup(string1);

Rather than root access, you should DEFINITLEY give rework your program
How is the robot controlled?
If it plugs in to parallel or serial port, then chmod 666 on the /dev/ttyS0
(serial) or /dev/partport0 (parallel) will give all users access to the
required device (You could even use group robot say, and chown .robot
/dev/xxxx then chmod 660)
If the device uses an ISA/PCI card then its harder, as I think you will have
to play around with the kernel
Dont just SUID root, or run as root, especially if the system has public
access.
Hope this helps

Well, start with writing lines less than 10293 characters long and then
/dev/initctl != /etc/initrunlvl, different story.
Since /etc resides on / and / is mounted ro you can't write /etc/mtab and
so use mount -w -n -o remount /
Mind the -n as when given this switch mount doesn't update /etc/mtab and
yes, call sync yourself after something has been written.
Why do you want to call init from the command line though ? You had
better really understand the whole startup process as while it probably
isn't going to hose your system you may be confronted with some nasty
messages.
IMHO try to repair it from where you are, read with the shell running
and nothing else, or at least get the shared libs back. Once there
you can boot as normal and care for the rest, working in your usual
environment.
Cheers,
Juergen

In my httpd.conf file I use the following AllowOverride directive:
AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
I suspect it is the AuthConfig and Limit that you are after. Make sure that
you have also defined the directive AccessFileName to .htaccess. This should
get your web daemon working again with authorisation files working.

Right. Find a RedHat mirror site and look for 'old versions'. There
should be a perfectly working set of GIMP RPMs for RedHat 5.0, 5.1, 5.2, 6.0,
6.1 or 6.2. I would guess that the GIMP RPMs for RedHat 5.2 should
install without trouble (yes, I know RH 5.2 is old, but many RedHat 5.2
RPMs install just fine with RH 6.2 (such as the one for xv).

Subject: LILO and second master hard-disk
Date: 1 Mar 2001 22:10:24 GMT
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I am having quite a bit of difficulty getting LILO to boot Windows 98 SE off
the second(ary?) master IDE hard-disk. LILO is installed on the primary master
disk on the boot sector. Linux is loaded on the first disk as well.
This is what happens:
(a) If I disabled the primary master hard-disk then Windows 98 SE will boot up.
(b) If I enable the primary master hard-disk then LILO will come up. If I
choose "linux" then it boots fine. If I choose "dos" then the system just hangs
immediately after I press "dos<ENTER>".
My LILO configuration is below.
[---]
boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
linear
default=linux
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=linux
read-only
root=/dev/hda1
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.14-6.1.1
label=linux-2.2.14
read-only
root=/dev/hda1
other=/dev/hdc1
label=dos
#table=/dev/hdc
[---]
I tried using the table parameter just in case, but it didn't change the
outcome. My drives are:
primary master: IDE hard-disk
primary slave: IDE CDROM
secondary master: IDE hard-disk
secondary slave: IDE hard-disk
All drives appear to work fine. The secondary slave is mounted as /home, so I
know that it works. Just in case here is some more information:
[root@dpbox /root]# fdisk -l /dev/hda
Disk /dev/hda: 128 heads, 63 sectors, 787 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 8064 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 754 3040096+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda2 755 787 133056 5 Extended
/dev/hda5 755 787 133024+ 82 Linux swap
[root@dpbox /root]# fdisk -l /dev/hdc
Disk /dev/hdc: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 1247 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes

/dev/hdc1 * 1 1247 10016496 c Win95 FAT32 (LBA)
[root@dpbox /root]# fdisk -l /dev/hdd

Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdd1 1 524 4208998+ 83 Linux
Got me why /dev/hda2 and /dev/hda5 seem to cover the same area, but it works.

Hmm. I am sure this should not happen but I am not intimately

Sounds like a DNS problem.
Is your system always on-line?
Is it on-line when this happens?
Does it run its own nameserver? How is it configured?
Any interesting messages in /var/log/syslog ?

Disclaimer: I don't represent the general consensus.
IMO, sendmail belongs in the aera where even payroll applications were
written in assembler, 64k words of magnetic core was a huge amount
of memory and the flipflops were implemented with discrete transistors.
Ok, this is exagerated, but only a little bit!
Use qmail, or if you have religous objections to it,then maybe postfix.
Note that the problems you are describing may have nothing to do with
sendmail.

One of my Linux systems is crashing ever so often with page faults. It
appears to occur most often with cron jobs are run. I've search the net but
I didn't see anything that pointed to the cause. However, I do notice the
following message at boot time.
symbol table has incorrect version number
Why is this and could it be related to the crashes? How do I eliminate this
message?
Thanks,
