Finger check. I meant to say that (IIRC) pppd invokes chat under the

Hi,
What are the Linux Web Server Appliances out there? I could only find the
Cobalt Rack and RoadsterLX. Are there others? Opinions welcome.

I had this problem too - there was a config option in GNOME where you can
specify the size of the virtual desktop - I can't remember the exact GNOME
menu option. I changed this to a desktop size of one screen and the problem
went away.

Another option is 'connect' which consists of a connectd daemon that does
the dialing using chat and various clients to control it. There is a
windows client, a linux command line client and a X windows client.

I had the same problem a while back and was never really able to
figure it out - but I did notice that the sshd binary on my machine did not
checksum the same as the binary on another host (which did not have the
'invisible users' problem). I copied over the sshd binary, restarted sshd,
and all was well.

What flavor of Linux?
Have you tried Apsfilter (www.apsfilter.org)?
My Epson Stylus Color 880 printer will accept a plain text file: E. G.

Will your printer respond to this?

i did that though, and no result ... same error. could u maybe (if u
remember that far back) the exact steps of how u installed glib? and did u
install gtk first by any chance? maybe that has to be installed before glib
or something ... i dunno. im gonna keep on trying, but pls send me ure xact

Oh, here's a sad one. There's a cyclical dependencies among
*objects* in the Gnome code. I did finally get Gnome to compile and RC1
works as advertised; I have no complaints. But while compiling I had to
disable some (admittedly optional) features because GAL can use GnomeDB,
but GnomeDB is dependent upon Glade, which in turn is dependent upon
GAL.
Arrgh. Who *designed* this monster?
>Have fun and....good luck....you'll need it :P
Well, here's the order of compilation that worked for me:
glib
gtk+
audiofile
esound
ORBit
gdk_pixbuf
imlib
libxml
gnome-libs
gnome-print
oaf
GConf
gnome-vfs
control-center
bonobo
libgda
libghttp
gal
gnome-db
libunicode
libglade
gnome-core
libsigc++
gtkmm
gnomemm
That's about it. And it's pretty responsive, too, much faster
than 1.2.

Subject: phone client/server idea
Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2001 12:42:39 -0700
Hello,
I would like to use an application framework that lets you connect to
another computer and use that computer's modem as a phone to call people.
Here is the scenario:
There are two computers: a server computer S and a client computer C.
- Both S and C are on the internet via an ethernet card that gives them
a cable or DSL or T1 type access to the internet. Hence S and C can
communicate.
- In addition to an ethernet card S has a modem connected to a phone line.
Such a modem is capable of dialling phone numbers and let people talk.
- S runs a server program that listens for incoming connections from
client programs. This server program called a phone server authenticates
users from other computers and upon successful authentication lets them
use the phone, possibly with some restrictions on the numbers the user
can dial and these would be configurable on a per user basis.
- The client program on C uses the client's built in microphone to forward
the voice messages to the server which then sends them over the phone.
At the same time the client listens for voice messages sent to it by the
other end.
- If the modem is in use by another user then the client should be able to
accept a busy signal and notify the user.
- The client program can be run on any computer on the internet including
servers themselves and can be used to connect to any accessible server.
I think the advantages of such a system are quite obvious
(security risks apart).
Where can I find such a system for Linux or even
a multiplatform solution with Linux server?
Thanks,
Neil

That's a valid point, however I never used who, only w and never had any problems,
no matter if it was the sshd that came with the distro or self compiled from
openssh.org.

That's curious, was this the same sshd version? What kind of distro do you use?

I see you already have answers, but let me elaborate a little.
If you run a RedHat system, you can do a whereis command and it will
tell you where command is. For example,
valinux:jdbeyer[~]$ whereis sort
sort: /bin/sort /usr/man/man1/sort.1
Once you know where it is, you can do:
valinux:jdbeyer[~]$ rpm -qf /bin/sort
textutils-2.0a-2
This tells you what (Red Hat) package it is in and the release rpm
thinks you are running.
This is useful for a command where --version does not tell you the
package it is a part of, or where there is no --version argument
available.
You can fool it by compiling something from source and installing it
without telling rpm about it (I do not even know a good way to tell
rpm anything, but I suspect there is a way).

<ZAP>
So you talk to the PC, the data are digitalized, sent over the network
to the other computer, then the data must be turned back to analog to be
sent over the phone line again?
Beside the fact that the modem on the other machine should be
able to generate voice data (normal modem can't do that), and you should
have a direct connection to the internet trought a fast connection, and
probabily this thing will suck out all the possible bandwidth,
what are the so-called "advantages" of this system ?

I tried both of the above methods without any positive results. When
I modify the 'Boot.local' file there is an error message when booting. What
is even stranger is that with out any changes to the 'boot.local' file, when
my machine boots and I watch as the different devices are initialized, I can
see my Crystalizer TidalWave 128 card in the list and all of the 'Ports' and
'IRQs' and 'DMAs' are listed and initialized correctly, but I am still unable
to get sound support. I have also tried the 'alsaconf' utility with an error
that no supported sound card was found. I have no idea what is wrong. The
YaST2 program tells me to try installing with the 'OSS/Free' package, what
and where is this package?
As far as I know this Crystalizer TidalWave 128 card uses the same
drivers for the 'Newcomm 3D' sound card in both Windoze and OS/2.
I must say I am completely baffled.
Thanks again for any help.

Jim,
I had exactly this problem yesterday.
Its due to the fact that gnorpm is statically linked.
When you (and I) installed rpm 4 that link went bad.
The fix for me was fairly easy - install the gnorpm source package
(I found gnorpm-0.95.1-5.6x.src.rpm).
Apply the included patches and then compile it.

In file XF86Config, Section "Screen", Subsection "Display", add line
Virtual 1024 768
and that will be the new desktop - but you'll lose larger resolutions.
