Make local KDM connect to remote KDM automatically?
I set up a simple terminal/server arrangement using a PII-233 with a native install of Debian as the terminal. I used to do this kind of thing with LTSP, but I'm getting away from that. I currently have a script out of /etc/init.d that runs X -query [server]. This works fine as far as my users ever notice, but if there's ever any reason to kill X, it doesn't respawn, and I have to intervene manually. Seems to me like there's some bit of magic I can work to get the terminal's KDM or XDM to query the server automatically. That way I can be running ?DM on the terminal in the usual respawning fashion, and still have it manifest itself as a login screen for the server. -- Michael McIntyre Silvan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Linux fanatic, and certified Geek; registered Linux user #243621 http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Rue/5407/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Actually it works automagically, just install lvm2 and you are fine. I did it just this past weekend -- installed debian sarge from scratch using beta4 installer, with kernel 2.4, configured lvm, installed lvm2 package, compiled kernel 2.6.5, rebooted.. and lvm came up just fine. If lvm2 package is missing than you will get lvm working under 2.4 but not under 2.6. I remember reading somewhere that lvm10 and lvm2 packages are smart, they basically install proxy lvm tools which determine your kernel version and run appropriate userspace lvm tools (10 for 2.4 and 2 for 2.6).

Recovering data from a corrupted disk
Hello everyone. An IDE hard disk I have has just got corrupted. I've been able to salvage all my personal data before its last "breath" but I still need to get the Debian package list from it. "gpart" has no success in recovering the partition table I'm testing now with "testdisk". I don't know if I'll be able to recover the partition table with this program so I'm open to ideas regarding other (free and not-free) tools as well as other ideas in order for me to recover my package list. Thanks in advance. Vitor
RE: HD recovery & debian installation mirroring (& others)
Thanks again! :) I'll do that! But in the meanwhile i'm testing the "testdisk" program to see if it can find the partitions, since gpart is not doing anything. It would be easier if I could chroot to the partition and run the dpkg -l or something like that. -Mensagem original- De: dircha [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviada: seg 2004-05-10 22:58 Para: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: Assunto: Re: HD recovery & debian installation mirroring (& others) Paladin wrote: > I'm sorry for this type of mail, but I can only use webmail... > > I don't think I will be able to get that file now... unless doing > some hard recovery of the disk.

You should be able to find a log of the X attempt in

(WW) and (EE). Those are the lines that should provide the info needed
for fixing your problem. The error message you posted above are generic
messages that are essentially meaningless.
Probably what has happened is that your video settings are incorrect,
and there are "no screen" settings defined in your X setup that work
with your hardware. These settings are stored in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4.
Although you can manually edit this file by hand, as a general rule you
want to avoide doing that on Debian systems and instead run
"dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86". Some things to pay attention to are
the video chipset driver ("ati" vs "vesa" vs "nv", etc), the
horizontal/vertical refresh rates, the resolutions you want to try to
use, and the number of colors. You may want to try dropping your
resolution/colors to see if you can make any progress.
At any rate, post the error messages in the log as I mention above;
that'll go a lot farther toward helping us to help you.

RE: HD recovery & debian installation mirroring (& others)
I'm sorry for this type of mail, but I can only use webmail... I don't think I will be able to get that file now... unless doing some hard recovery of the disk. I was able, in the begining, to read the full disk and I did a "dpkg --get-selections" and saved the result, but I think this won't be enough, right? I have a operable Debian system, I'm using it to try to recover the disk. But without that file maybe I could grep it?

For starters, debian has nothing to do with configuring or using X for that matter during install, and secondly, installation has already completed by the time you get around to this.

Re: Secure OS's
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I guess what I mean by a secure os is an os whose packages themselves are secure, obviously if someone doesn't set up a server securely, it doesn't matter how secure the packages are. Like wise, if a person set up a server keeping security as a priority, all their efforts are for naught if the package is built insecurely, (like the common buffer overflow). I know that debian releases security patches that solve many of these issues, when the come up. However, this process leads me to believe that the packages in general are not built with security in mind (which makes sense because most people programming an editor are probably not terribly concerned about curious users monkeying around with their programs too much). How important of an issue do you guys feel this is and do you think projects like bastille are important towards this effort? Also, I do not know of any other debian compatible security packages and would love to learn more about them. Whether or not a software application itself is security-minded is primarily a judgment call about the application's developers, its security model, and its maturity. You say, "all their efforts are for naught if the package is built insecurely, (like the common buffer overflow)". This is usually not the domain of the distribution or packager. When 99.9% (eh?) of the development work is done by the upstream developer, looking elsewhere to make security judgments about the software would seem to be a mistake. Just because a software application has been packaged in a distribution for 6 years, does not mean that it is in any way secure or even "more secure". It may have a user base of 10 people. That the software is available as a .deb tells you very little beyond an expectation that it will be version compatible with the rest of the distribution. The distribution package - the .deb - is security neutral. Further, I do not believe there is a 1:1 correspondence between software which is packaged and software which it is worthwhile to divert people resources to for development or testing. Shouldn't development and testing resources be allocated by the upstream developers and those who fund them? dircha -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

The thing is, at least with older machines that the bus speed is not high enough, so getting lots of network pakets and using an additional ide pci card (even worse on a shared slot) could cause such an effect. Intense work on 4 harddiscs and 1 or 2 network cards, could result in high cpu usage and, how to say that? high bus activity.!

Every Freaking time I installed udev, everything just died. udev went bye-bye every-time I tried it, mainly cause I didn't have time to mess with it. So, here I go and actually build an exact replica of the Herbert Xu Debian Kernel 2.6.5-1(2.6.5-4 revision) .deb and headers.deb and an nvidia-modules.deb (1.0-5336). (I rather like to do this :) I can post my madness^Wmethods for everyone to see, if anyone cares to see it. I installed the kernel, nvidia, udev and VMware I was determined to make it work. As neither the nvidia or vmware modules put info in the sysfs BTW put this into your fstab: sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 none /sys/bus/usb usbfs defaults 0 0 It is needed to really make the whole process work better. I still am using hotplug, so I removed discover(1 and 2) as hotplug and discover overlap something fierce. Well, I ended up having to add "nvidia" and "ide-cd" to /etc/modules and make a script that created the udev nodes every-time (as neither nvidia or VMware) to function properly. here are the scripts: /etc/init.d/mknvdev Begin #!/bin/sh if [ -e /dev/.udev.tdb ]; then for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7; do node="/dev/nvidia$i" rm -f $node mknod $node c 195 $i || error "mknod \"$node\"" chmod 0666 $node || error "chmod \"$node\"" done node="/dev/nvidiactl" rm -f $node mknod $node c 195 255|| error "mknod \"$node\"" chmod 0666 $node || error "chmod \"$node\"" fi exit 0 End /etc/init.d/mkvmdev Begin #!/bin/sh if [ -e /dev/.udev.tdb ]; then for i in 0 1 2 3; do node="/dev/parport$i" rm -f $node mknod $node c 99 $i || error "mknod \"$node\"" chmod 0600 $node|| error "chmod \"$node\"" done for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9; do node="/dev/vmnet$i" rm -f $node mknod $node c 119 $i || error "mknod \"$node\"" chmod 0600 $node || error "chmod \"$node\"" done node="/dev/vmmon" rm -f $node mknod $node c 10 165|| error "mknod \"$node\"" chmod 0660 $node|| error "chmod \"$node\"" fi exit 0 End (don't forget to flag them executable and owned by root.root) I then created symbolic links in /etc/rcS.d/ as S26mknvdev -> ../init.d/mknvdev S26mkvmdev -> ../init.d/mkvmdev Which is right after devmapper starts and way after udev starts.

If you use a custom kernel you will need to make sure you compile it (at least as a module), it should be under character devices.

David, you were absolutely right. The lilo error was down to the 2.4 kernel not having device mapper built in. Running lilo when running under 2.6.5 produced no error. I did update the lvm-common and lvm10 packages to the latest (I'm running Sid btw). But this produced the same thing (no mounted lvm), although I've noticed some additional errors during bootup now. Here is a small bit from /var/log/boot: ... All modules loaded. Setting up LVM Volume Groups... vgscan -- LVM driver/module not loaded? vgchange -- LVM driver/module not loaded? ... As far as I know, LVM is built into my kernel. In the menuconfig I selected to build in the multi device support (didn't bother with RAID since I dont need it).

mouse + gtk problems.
Since some time I have problems with my built-in Touchpad PS/2 mouse device under X. It's there, I can use it and it's fine. Until I start a gtk (1 or 2) application and it's gone. It took a while to discover this was the problem, since I thought this mousedevice just 'disapeared' after a while (I normally use my external USB mouse). It's seemed to disappear only after I started firefox (which is gtk based) and after testing, even the configuration tools 'switch' and 'switch2' kill the internal PS/2 mouse/touchpad. Anybody any idea why this happens? I don't use gpm, but could it be that gtk apps start gpm-like services under water? Once closed I cannot bring the internal mouse back to life, I need to restart X for that. At least, that's what I figured out so far. Oh btw, I normally use KDE, so gtk apps are 'foreign' for my DE.

Re: Secure OS's
Thanx for the quick response and appologies my the delay in mine. I now realize that my posting was too vague when I mentioned "secure os's" I guess what I mean by a secure os is an os whose packages themselves are secure, obviously if someone doesn't set up a server securely, it doesn't matter how secure the packages are. Like wise, if a person set up a server keeping security as a priority, all their efforts are for naught if the package is built insecurely, (like the common buffer overflow). I know that debian releases security patches that solve many of these issues, when the come up. However, this process leads me to believe that the packages in general are not built with security in mind (which makes sense because most people programming an editor are probably not terribly concerned about curious users monkeying around with their programs too much). How important of an issue do you guys feel this is and do you think projects like bastille are important towards this effort? Also, I do not know of any other debian compatible security packages and would love to learn more about them. thanx Paul Quoting Roberto Sanchez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Hey peoples! > > > > I have just been wondering about the security of debian verus the other > "Secure" > > OS's.

I'll give you an example of how I do it and perhaps you can figure out the best way to apply these ideas to your own setup. Please note, I'm not an "expert" in this area. I can however tell you what works for me and what my understanding is of the subject. You're likely to get some follow up emails with corrections about my explanation here. First of all the company I work for has a number of machines on their private network. We use "net 10" for our lan. There is one gateway machine and all internet access from clients on net 10 gets routed through the gateway machine. The gateway machine is connected both to net 10 and to an internet router by way of a firewall. Here's a crude picture of that setup: Clients on net 10. 10.0.0.1 though 10.0.0.253 | Connect via lan cable and switches to | Gateway machine (10.0.0.254 lan side / 62.192.14.212 internet side) | Connects via lan cable to | Internet firewall | Connects via cable and router to | Our ISP which in turn connects us to the internet The default gateway of all the lan clients is set to the lan side address of the gateway machine (10.0.0.254) This means all internet requests must pass through this one machine to reach the internet. The internet IP of our gateway is (hypothetically) 62.192.14.212. The iptables command can be used to perform a range of functions in Linux including forwarding, firewalling with stateful packet inspection and the masquerading function so that all your clients may access the internet. When properly configured, the gateway will forward packets from any of your lan clients to the internet and forward any returning traffic back to the correct client on your lan. This is similar to proxying but (put simply) there is no caching involved. Here's is a VERY BASIC script for iptables that demonstrates a way to perform masquerading. You run this script on your Linux gateway. Generally you will want to add a number of additional firewall rules to help secure your gateway. While this script should work for your setup, it is not to be considered the final or complete solution for your setup. I expressly disclaim any liability for what this script will do once used in your organization. It's simply the minimum required to successfully activate ip masquerading for your network. For more information on iptables you can go check out http://www.netfilter.org/ . You'll find a lot of valuable information there. Basically what this script does is allow most lan traffic unrestricted access to the internet and only allow internet traffic to reach the lan if it is in response to a host on the lan. There are many ways to configure this to accomplish your own tasks. This is just one way. It really should be hardened with additional rules to afford your gateway more protection. However this script has been sufficient (security wise) on my personal lan at home because my internet router is also a firewall. The script I use at my company is more complex and involves firewalling as a layer of redundancy to the commercial firewall. #!/bin/bash IPTABLES=/usr/sbin/iptables MODPROBE=/sbin/modprobe LOCALNET=10.0.0.0/8 INT=eth0 # Name of the internal lan side network card EXT=eth1 # Name of the external internet side network card $MODPROBE ipt_MASQUERADE $MODPROBE ip_conntrack_ftp $MODPROBE ip_nat_ftp # Enable forwarding echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward # This clears existing rules and sets default policies # These policies assume you have a firewall between the gateway and the internet $IPTABLES -P INPUT ACCEPT $IPTABLES -F INPUT $IPTABLES -P OUTPUT ACCEPT $IPTABLES -F OUTPUT $IPTABLES -P FORWARD DROP $IPTABLES -F FORWARD $IPTABLES -t nat -F $IPTABLES -t mangle -F # Masquerading rules $IPTABLES -A FORWARD -i $EXT -o $INT -d $LOCALNET -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT $IPTABLES -A FORWARD -i $INT -o $EXT -s $LOCALNET -j ACCEPT # Perform actual masquerading in postrouting $IPTABLES -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o $EXT -j MASQUERADE To customize this script

You may not have successfully installed some of the packages, such as a Graphical User Interface, on top of Debian, but Debian itself is successfully installed. Now what you want to do is install a GUI. First, try typing "startx". It'll either try to start the GUI (the "X Window System", or "X"), or it'll complain that it can't find startx or something similar. If the latter occurs, then try "apt-get install x-window-system kde", which hopefully will install a basic X system, along with the KDE environment which will make it feel/look similar to what you're accustomed to in the Windows world. -- Kent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: PS/2 Mouse Problem!

In X environment, mouse works not really fine! I mean when I move the mouse slowly, it works not bad, but when I move it fast, it jumps from one side to the other side of screen, unwanted clicks and undesired scrolling will be happened :( I have changed ImPS/2 to PS/2, but no good results have been got and the mouse behavior becomes really bad!! Go back to ImPS/2 ; I think that was better! Please let me know that besides PS/2, ImPS/2, autoPS/2, which kind of protocol I have to test? Until now, I have not tested autoPS/2. My mouse is PS/2 with netscrolling capability. Looking 4 your recommandations and suggestions. I suspect you have gpm installed. (Press Ctrl-Alt-F1 and move your mouse around; do you see a white block cursor tracking your movements? If so, then yes, you have gpm installed. Ctrl-F7 should get you back to the X Window System.) If you do, you'll need to run "gpmconfig" and configure it to repeat the data as "ms", then reconfigure X to pull the data from "/dev/gpmdata". -- Kent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Which is one of the reasons I have gpm installed, gpm being the mouse driver for the console. Then just highlight to copy and middle-click to paste. In any case, I installed nvidia-glx before I should have and that's why I ran into problems. I appear to now be committed to my mistakewhich would be fine if I could figure out why X says that I no longer have a screen that works. (What's the new stuff in the kernel that has to do with screen resolution? I probably messed up somewhere around there...when I did my make oldconfig) But X is still throwing up errors and my nvidia module isn't listed under lsmod. It's there under /lib/modules/[etc]/nvidia.ko, but I can't probe it (why is everything .ko now instead of .o?). I do have module-init-tools, and there are other modules loaded, so I'm not sure why nvidia's refusing to play nicely. Just temporarily, you might use the "nv" or "vesa" or "vga" driver to get back into X. That'll give you a sense of "okay, back in GUI-land, whew", even if it's not quite what you want long-run. -- Kent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

print to a hp lj 5l through tcp/ip
Hi! I have a hp laserjet 5l printer in my network, and listens on tcp port 9100. A few month ago (when I used woody), I could use the socket:// protocoll to connect to it. But after I've upgraded to sarge, I can not even select the tcp/ip protocoll when I'm adding a new printer. I can only choose from smb, and lpt. Anyone know how to use this kind of printer? Thanks!

My best guess is that the protocol is incorrect, but you've already said you have tried them all. Can you confirm that you have tried each protocol, and each protocol does not work, with gpm restarted for each, without any other process reading psaux (including X)? -- Jon Dowland http://jon.dowland.name/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Use hexdump/hd (in the bsdmainutils package) to read binary data , rather than simply catting it which will most likely break your terminal, and could actually cause data loss. $ hd /dev/psaux (wiggle the mouse) And if you get output consistent with your wiggling, then the mouse is ok. -- Jon Dowland http://jon.dowland.name/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
