Hi all,

I'm trying to get my ethernet card working with linux.  I have to some
extent, I found a semi-supported .c file as a driver written for it.
The driver worked, under kernel 2.0.36.  However, i can't get it to
compile under 2.2.1.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  I get errors
like SLOW_DOWN_IO not defined, dev_tint not declared, etc.  Maybe
someone that knows about drivers can fix it?  I tried, but I know too
little about network drivers to understand how I need to fix it.  If
anyone is interested email me.

Thanks!

I agree with this idea COMPLETELY.  If the idea that people do wrong is a
good enough excuse to violate our privacy, and the attitude that if we do
nothing wrong is an excuse for us not to complain, then the violation of
our privacy has nothing to do with being right or wrong.  Just someone
elses interest.

The minds behind the observation systems are simply motivated by self
interest, regardless of right or wrong.  If you toss money at the man, he
will jump straight into bed.

I've been following this topic with perhaps more interest than it
deserves (in this forum, anyway).

One for you, JR:

Suppose your local government (wherever you live) is having a big push
against "online drug peddling" or "Internet child pornography" or
"cyber-terrorism".  Most are, after all.  And say someone, just for a
joke, goes to a public cybercafe, sets up a Hotmail account with _your_
name, and mails themselves a kiddie porn pic, or a "how to make bombs"
manual, and then calls the police.  Just because they don't like you. 
Hey, it could even be someone you've been exchanging views with in this
newsgroup :-).  Oh, and they copy your local paper too.

Now, the police are going to have NO trouble at all getting a warrant to
go through EVERY single file on your PC.  They will have "experts" who
will want you to show them EVERY single file.  And while you do that...
they will sit there.  And they might just be impassionate observers...
or they might behave like the average 95-IQ white male, and make kind of
crude remarks about every file on your system.  Certainly about every
scanned pic of your wife on vacation.  And even if nothing worse comes
of it - even if the local paper don't say "Police called at the home of
an XX year old local resident in XYZ street, who we can't name, although
his neighbours know damn well who he is because they saw the squad cars
outside" - you will feel pretty shitty about the whole experience.

Hi there!

I'm looking for good webcam server-software
and hardware for Linux (SuSE 5.*/6.*).

keywords:
- stable software
- serverpush/clientpull/streaming/stills
  (and upload of pictures through ftp to provider)
- availability (hard & software)
- parallel interface
- free (GNU,almost free) software
- cheap but good color camera
- compatability browsers & platforms (clients)
- easy to use/install

I want to use it for dialup connections, Intranet
and for livecontent on webpages.

Any suggestions?

Hi Steph,

Here's what I do to get around that same problem.  It seems that eth0 is the default 
route, and
you're actually pinging your internal network.  After starting X, I first issue the 
command:
route del default

Then I open the Network Configurator from Control Panel, select interfaces, select 
ppp0, and click
Active button.  This initiates the dial-out and I'm connected properly.  I don't know 
why, but if I
reboot, the default route is restored, so I have to go through this routine each time. 
 It feels
like a kludge, but, hey, I'm still learning.


HTH,

Might be, but I don't think this is your problem.


One suggestion, have you tried the NetWare Client for Linux
from Caldera Systems?  Downloadable from
http://www.calderasystems.com/products/netware/index.html. 
Caldera has a licensing agreement with Novell and their
client "should" be pretty good.  ncpfs probably does things
roughly like a NETx client would, so I would assume the
Caldera product would be much better.

What was interesting to me was your description of the
packet trace.  Something is not right when the server takes
four seconds to respond to a simple rename.  Makes me wonder
if something is amiss in either server patches or config
parameters.

Why would you need a hardware ID to do any of the things that some of you
folks are objecting to?  If I generated a random number large enough such
that the probability of duplication was below some reasonable threshold
and stored that number as the ID, what would be the real difference?  

I've got lots of pseudorandom numbers pointing at me in precisely that way.
I don't think the end of the world is nigh because of it, though.  Where's
the hue and cry about social security numbers, BTW?  Or is that just a
paranoid redneck issue, while CPU IDs are an enlightened thinking man's
issue?  Is it because the good government controls what is done with
social security numbers, but evil corporations are using CPU IDs?

Really.  What's the big deal?  Other than giant conspiracies by 
multinational corporations to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily
fluids, of course.

 I've SuSE 6.0 + netatalk-1.4b2+asun2.0a18.2

 Could I create a new zone. There is already zone on the cable but
it belongs to different dept. As far as I read from MacOS help there could
be many zones on one physical net. So how could I create one with netatalk.
It is no problem in principle to use same zone as another dept. but would be
better to have our own.
 Second, when I login to my server from macs I get Password: .... (clear
text). How could I change to Kerberos as I read in man that netatalk
supports Kerberos? This is more important for me.
