Diald
Hola a todos... Me encuentro en un apurillo: sin saber que es lo que he hecho, el diald ha dejado de funcionar. Ahora mismo me falta el dispositivo slip que necesita diald, y no consigo crearlo. Antes lo tenia, y el diald se quejaba de que los parametros pasados a ifconfig no eran validos. ¿Alguien sabe como arrancarlo? es la version 0.98.2 y los kernel 2.2.9 y 2.2.10. Gracias de antemano y saludos. P.D. ¿Existe alguna alternativa a diald?
HtDig y bichos de parecido pelaje
Hola a todos. Resulta que esoy montando un indexador en un servidor que va a jaubilar a un RedHat 4.0. Viendo las opciones posibles, me había decidido por el htdig, pero, aunque hace muchas cosas y tiene opciones muy interesantes, resulta quen le falta una que para mí es fundamental: no es capaz de indexar regiones del texto, o lo que es lo mismo, catalogar sólo la parte contenida entre dos marcas. Por más que me he leido la documentación de htdig, no he visto que se pueda hacer (he probado con la de Slink y la de potato, aunque de esta última no he llegado a mirar la documentación tan a fondo). El servidor condenado a desaparecer tiene un indexador llamado SFgate, pero la versión más moderna que he encontrado de él es del año 94, y en formato .tgz, así que asumo que es una especie ya extinguida. El caso es que este indexador sí era capaz de catalogar sólo entre marcas del texto, lo cual es fundamental para nosotros. La pregunta entonces es: ¿puede alguien confirmarme que el HtDig es incapaz de indexar areas del texto? ¿Existe algún otro indexador de páginas web que sea capaz de hacerlo y que venga como paquete debian? ¿Busco alguna gota de ámbar con ADN del SFgate para intentar resucitar la especie? -- Un Saludo Han Solo The Rebel Alliance Conecto, luego existo.

Vienen los dos con Debian y por lo que he mirado, es probable que sí hagan eso :-m Por otro lado, lo que también puedes hacer es seguir usando htdig pero definir un filtro para todos los ficheros, como si fuera para descomprimirlos (pero siendo .html, por ejemplo), que llame a sed como sea, para devolver a htdig sólo lo que haya entre esas marcas que dices. La indexación sería más lenta, pero si no son muchos muchos MB la cosa la puedes resolver así.

Reuni'on sobre Debian?
Hola, En noviembre, los d'ias 5 y 6, tendr'a lugar en Madrid el congreso anual de Hispalinux (m'as info en http://congreso.hispalinux.es). Creo que ser'ia un buen momento para organizar una peque~na reuni'on sobre Debian, abierta a quien se quiera apuntar, para la gente del 'area de Madrid (Espa~na), y otros que se puedan acercar. Posiblemente, alg'un desarrollador quiera contarnos alguna cosa sobre potato, o sobre los paquetes en los que ha trabajado. Alguien podr'ia contar tambi'en c'omo hacer paquetes, o similares. Y a mi me gustar'ia discutir formas de darle un nuevo impulso a la traducci'on de Debian (tanto la documentaci'on y el Web como algunos paquetes). E incluso se podr'ian discutir en directo otras ideas que han surgido 'ultimamente en esta lista (versiones actualizadas de slink, paquetes para localizaci'on de Debian en espa~nol, etc.). Por supuesto, nos podr'iamos tomar tambi'en algo, firmarnos nuestras claves PGP, y cosas similares. Y me comprometo a hacer un resumen, y a recoger sugerencias por correo-e, para que los que no se puedan desplazar puedan participar de alguna manera (qui'zas podamos conseguir un ordenata para tener un IRC simult'aneo, o algo por el estilo). En fin, ?qu'e os parece? ?Lo organizamos? ?Cu'antos desarrolladores se podr'ian venir? ?Y no desarrolladores? Que sea leve, Jesus. -- Jesus M.

install operating system kernel and modules problem
This is my question and Bob Hilliard's response. Unfortunately, neither of his suggestions worked. Is 'instmnt' a literal string or just a placeholder? Can anyone help me with this. Many thanks. Ok. Next stupid question: I'm hung up on the following step in the debian dbootsrap process. I'm installing from a local disk. Mac68k. Partition table: ... /dev/sda2 no driver 4.3 /dev/sda3 yes linux swap /dev/sda4 yes linux native/target /dev/sda5 yes linux native/target/usr /dev/sda6 yes linux native/target/home /dev/sda7 no free /dev/sdb1 no hfs (debian archive is here) /dev/sdb2 no partition map /dev/sdb3 no driver 4.3 /dev/sdb4 no free I get to the screen where I'm supposed to give it the path to the debian archive. No matter what I enter, nothing happpens. Are the following literal strings? I'm not offered choices as the help file suggests. The screen pops up with '/debian' as the default path. /instmnt/debian/.finderinfo /instmnt/debian/.resource /instmnt/debian Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Then again, maybe I'll answer my own question again. I haven't made a new installation in years (my last installation was for bo), and don't know anything about the current boot disks, so my guess may not be helpful. I would try `/instmnt/debian/dev/sdb1' or `/instmnt/dev/sdb1'. If neither of those work, try the same without the `/instmnt'. If these don't help, the best place to get help is the the mailing list, [EMAIL PROTECTED]'. To subscribe to the list, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the subject `subscribe'.

Re: install operating system kernel and modules problem
Is /dev/sdb1 mounted? What is the output of mount (with no arguments)? You probably have to Alt-F2 to a new vt and mount /dev/sdb1 somewhere, then specify the path to the debian archive from there. This is how I installed the base system on my PC. In my case, the base_21.tgz file was on a dos partition, which I had to mount manually first.

Then again, maybe I'll answer my own question again.

xfree 3.3.4 for slink and dpkg
Hi, I have just tried upgrading the xfree by manually downloading and upgrading the xfree packages. I have downloaded all of the packages I need from Branden's ftp site ( _Thanks_ Branden for slink packages), and xfree86-common had upgraded smoothly (from 3.3.2.3a-11 version, running on slink and 2.2.10 kernel), but xbase-clients wouldn't upgrade until I removed all my fonts packages from 3.3.2.3a-11. Then it worked, but failed with the message: broken pipe (this was right after it complained about the xconsole.real file which belongs to xaw-wrapper package- I don't know if two are related). My questions: *has anyone upgraded sucessfully from 3.3.2.3a-11 to 3.3.4 on slink *did anyone tried dpkg --install filename to do this, or is anyone using apt only ( I may be a bit outdated here, but I like the manual installation- call me a control freak :-)) *is this a bug or is it me doing something wrong (much more likely) Any help appreciated, let me know if I left anything important out ( I didn't use xbase_* only package because I am already using a slink-approved version of xfree packages). damir

EXIM CONFIG
hi and thanks in advance to anyone who can help... i use exim, fetchmail, and mutt to handle mail over a dial-up/ppp connection. i have followed all the appropriate configuration recommendations from the linux gazette #43 article which was cited on this list a while ago. everything works well except removing the sender header. my exim.conf file has remote_smtp: driver = SMTP headers_remove = sender transport_filter = /usr/local/bin/outfilt end as the last paragraph in the transports section, and yet the sender header is not removed from my outgoing mail (causing problems with some mail recipients). Any ideas? thanks again, peter

If you have something like: user jjlupa is jon here then you would use in a .forward file: if $header_to: contains [EMAIL PROTECTED] or $header_to: contains [EMAIL PROTECTED] then deliver [EMAIL PROTECTED] endif and read it locally at Rankor. MS-Win users can get the mail from a POP3 daemon on Sith.JJLNet (or what other mail server you like). handle it from there. (The server can act as the workstations smarthost in that configuration, I think). Yes. PS. stumpel.html deals with the case of a network where many users use one email account.

plip problems ahoy
Hi there, I've been trying to install Debian 2.1 on my laptop, which has no cdrom or network card. Debian's base system was easy to install (using floppies). I've been trying to set up a PLIP link, so I can ftp the rest of the system over. My setup is unusual: +---+ | laptop: comet | +---+ | 192.168.2.2 (plip1) | laplink cable | | 192.168.2.1 (plip0) +--+ | headless box: saturn | +--+ | 192.168.1.1 (eth0) | ethernet | | 192.168.1.13 (eth0) ++ | desktop: earth | ++ comet is running Debian 2.1 (kernel 2.0.36, glibc 2.0.7) saturn is running RH5.2 (kernel 2.2.10, glibc 2.0.7) earth is running RH5.2 (kernel 2.2.6, glibc 2.0.7) Earth is the only computer which has a cdrom drive. I wish to connect comet to saturn though, because PLIP requires that IP forwarding be enabled in the kernel (according to the PLIP mini-HOWTO... is it correct?). Saturn also acts as a gateway for IP-Masqerading, and so already has support for IP forwarding. I don't want to compile support for this into earth's kernel (also, configuring PLIP between comet and saturn will allow me to access the internet through saturn via the laplink cable later on...). (I'm don't have access to any of these systems right now, so the following might not be exact :/ ) PLIP seems to be working okay between comet and saturn. Pings work both ways, and I can telnet/ftp from comet to saturn (but not the other way because telnetd and ftpd aren't installed). Routes have been added: comet: - saturn is the default gateway, plip1 is the defaultroute saturn: - all packets to 192.168.1.x go to eth0 - all packets to 192.168.2.x go to plip0 earth: - saturn is the default gateway, eth0 is the defaultroute Sorry, I don't have the output from route -n. I'll post it tomorrow if required. * saturn can ping comet and earth * earth can ping saturn and comet * comet can ping saturn but NOT earth! It is mostly working, but the most crucial link, the one I need to get access to a cdrom, is the one that doesn't work. Can anyone tell me what could be wrong? Thanks, Matthew ps. Please don't tell me to remove the cdrom from earth and install it in saturn ;)
Re: startx (after upgrade) dials modem before running X (fixed)
In case anyone os interested, the problem turned out to be some spurious entries in my .Xauthority file. While poking around looking for the cause of the dialout, I did a 'xauth list' and got back about a dozen lines of stuff, including some entries for 192.168.0.1, which doesn't exist on my network. Apparently there was an attempt at a reverse name lookup for it. In any event, deleting the .Xauthority file took care of it. I don't know where all of the other entries came from -- I have been using X on one platform or another for about 10 years and I recall seeing this once, and only once before and I didn't understand it then either.

transparent webbrowser
Hola to the List once again. Quick query -- I am fairly taken by Eterm (I don't know how to procede with aterm, the Unix98 ptys scare me a bit -- any hints on that?) and its transparency. So, I started thinking about how nice it would be for netscape to be transparent too. Does anyone know of a way to make any graphical webrowser transparent?

Re: install operating system kernel and modules problem
If linux actually supports the filesystem that MacOS uses properly, there should be no problem creating directories in either OS and have the other OS read it all right.

Has anyone else ever seen this problem? If so, any clues would be helpful. Perhaps fvwm/2 exercises the X Server more than the other WMs, and I my XF86Config isn't as correct as I thought it was? Everything else (even Enlightenment) appears to work OK. Strange... John __ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com

SB16 PnP CD-ROM
Hi, It appears that getting these SB PnP CD-ROMs has been difficult for several newbies, including myself. I finally got mine working by installing from a DOS partition. I duplicated the directory structure of the first Debian CD on my DOS partition, included the *.deb files in some of the more important-sounding subdirectories (base, utils), and pointed dselect to my hard drive. Once I got enough installed to enable gcc, I used the module written by Jeff Epler (thanks!), found at: http://www.roestock.demon.co.uk/isapnptools/README.ide My CD-ROM works like a charm now, and I can get dselect to install from CD. It wasn't exactly elegent, but I was getting desparate. Jeff J

Re: Compilation prob
Hi Menno, To compile the kernel you need the bin86 package, you can get it as normal using apt-get install bin86 or by downloading the package from the debian homepage and installing it with dpkg -i bin86*.deb. Also (and someone plz correct me if I'm wrong) but for compiling the 2.2 kernel you should use make bzImage instead of make zImage.
