Re: Problemas con pon
El Wed, Jan 26, 2000,
Lluis Vilanova...
No se pq, al arrancar la conexion con pon, no se ejecutan
los archivos almacenados en ip-up
$ cat /usr/bin/pon
#!/bin/sh
/usr/sbin/pppd call ${1:-provider}
Ya ves que el problema no debe ser de `pon'.
Para que se ejecuten los scripts de `/etc/ppp/ip-up.d',
debe ser lanzado por `pppd' el script `/etc/ppp/ip-up', que
contiene la línea
run-parts /etc/ppp/ip-up.d
Y tanto este script como los almacenados en el subdirectorio
tendrán que tener permisos de ejecución.
$ ls -l /etc/ppp/ip*
-rwxr-xr-x1 root root 1942 Jun 21 1999 /etc/ppp/ip-down

Alvaro Alea escribió: 1º En lo de babel me dice que no esta definido spanish como idioma, pero yo ya fuy a un fichero y descomente la linea de spanish. pese a ello lo de Capitulo y las fechas aparecen en español, pero por el mensaje que dice algo de hypenations, creo que no me separara bien las silabas al final de las lineas. Como te ha dicho Enzo Dari, no basta con editar el fichero de hyphenation; es necesario también volver a crear los fomatos del latex, plain-tex y todo lo que uses. Para eso hay una opción en el menu de texconfig (escondida dentro de HYPHEN) o puedes usar (como root): texconfig init log.txt confirma en log.txt (o en el fichero que te diga texconfig) que las reglas para separar palabras en español hayan sido incluidas. El otro problema que tengo es con los dibujos: tengo las figuras que quiero insertar en formato .gif, ( el xfig, ni me gusta ni me entra en la pantalla ) Quien hizo el xfig debia tener un monitor de 19 pulgadas. Para los que no nos podemos dar ese lujo, conviene usar: xfig -but__per_row 3 -pheight 15 -pwidth 20 Yo trabajo en centimetros (20 por 15) pero puedes usar otros números de tu agrado. El xfig es muy bueno para hacer dibujos vectoriales, pero si lo que quieres es convertir gif en vectorial hay opciones mucho mejores. Por ejemplo instalate el imagemagik y usa: convert dibujo.gif dibujo.ps asi que con el gimp las conbierto a .eps. el caso es que en el fichero .dvi ( lo veo con xdvi ) me aparecen los dibujos ( aunque la lupa no funciona ), pero cuando los paso a ps con la orden: dvips -f file.tex file.ps Aqui hay várias posibles fuentes de error. Si lo de dvips -f file.tex no fué un error tuyo al escribir esta nota, entonces atención que devia ser -f file.dvi. Pero eso ni hace falta: dvips -o file.ps file Otra cosa es que no conviene usar eps sino ps. Hay muchos tipos de eps y lo que algunos programas definen como eps puede no ser lo que tu necesitas. Es mejor trabajar en PostScript normal. Con cualquier versión de ghostscript te debia funcionar, si lo que hiciste fué pasar de gif para postcript, ya que no estas usando ninguna instrucción vectorial sino lo mas básico para representar una imagen bitmap. Y por cierto, sabe alguien de algun sitio web donde pueda conseguir informacion en español para los muy principiantes ( ya tengo el libro Una descripcion de LaTex2e pero me gustaria mas informacion ), o una lista de correo para muy principiantes. Ya fuiste a Cervantex? (grupo de LaTeX en español).

xscreensaver en potato ¿bug en dependencias?
Hola a tod*s, Después de una actualización salvaje de potato a principios de esta semana desde ftp://ftp.de.debian.org me quedó el sistema hecho unos zorros. Entre eso, entre que no tengo ningún dato importante en el portátil, entre que el gnome todavía no se entendía muy bien con el wmaker y entre que quería reparticionar el disco y no me atrevía a usar el parted o el ext2resize, me decidí por volverlo a instalar todo de nuevo (sí, ¿qué pasa?, a lo windoze :), asumiendo que me costaría menos empezar de cero que empezar a trastear por ahí. Bien el caso es que he tenido problemas con dos paquetes: el xscreensaver y el communicator. El del primero me parece un bug serio. Cuando selecciono el xscreensaver, el dselect me dice que depende de un paquete (de esos ficticios) llamado perl. Resulta que este perl depende del perl-5004-base el cual entra en conflicto con el perl-5005 ... y ya la tenemos liada (perdonad si los nombres no coinciden exactamente, estoy hablando de memoria), porque si desinstalo el perl-5005 que es el que ya hay instalado ¡se lleva consigo más de la mitad de las aplicaciones que tengo instaladas en el sistema! Conclusión: me quedo sin xscreensaver y, la verdad, me gustaría instalarlo (antes, lo tenía). Con el segundo me pasa algo parecido ... me dice que depende de libc6-bin ¡la cual es incompatible con libc6! Ya os podéis imaginar lo que pasaría si desinstalase libc6 ... ¡adiós Debian, adiós! Conclusión: prefiero decir adiós netscape y así pruebo el mozilla ;-) ¿Sabéis si lo del xscreensaver está reportado como bug?, a mí me lo parece. Si es así, supongo que la semana que viene ya estará resuelto. En fin, gracias por vuestro tiempo.

As a matter of fact I have two viruses stored as files ( I did not run them though ;-) and I am rather curious to see what they *would* do if I ran them. Is there perhaps a way of finding out when running them with wine ? I guess this cannot damage anything but perhaps I finally know what they were supposed to do. So if anyone has any idea, please drop a few lines. Tassilo

Re: updatedb not working / bug in updatedb
I noticed this as well, and I fixed it by copying frcode into the same dir
as the updatedb program, it then works fine. I know it's a quick fix, but it
worked.

After more tinkering around, I think I've found the problem. The problem
is that updatedb is not able to execute the frcode program which it calls

but the version from potato has the line:

I'm not much of a shell hacker so I don't know what @libexecdir@ is
supposed to do, but evidently it's not setting the path correctly so
frcode is not being run and updatedb dies without creating the file.
Guess I should file a bug report if I can remember how to do that.

Help with bootp
I am running Debian Slink fully updated. I am working on hooking up an Xterminal to the network. I am using the bootp server as nothing more then a nfs server so it does not have bind installed on it. I have my other machine maped as the firwall, bind, isp conection and home directory. I have a very basic configuration in the bootptab file and have tftpd and bootpd installed in the inet.conf file. For some reason I do not get the bootp system to even load when I boot the Xterminal. I have even gone as far as trying to load it from the command line to no success. No error messages (that I have found) have come up. I have configured other bootp servers before so I am not a real newbe to this. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks for the help. Brian Schramm [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.linuxexpert.org

Re: system requirements for SCSI
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far way, someone said... I want to by a SCSI drive and controller for one of my older computers so it can act as an ftp server. My understanding is that a slower computer can act as a decent server if you use SCSI since it doesn't require much from the processor. Is that right? Also, are there any minimum requirements? The computer is a Gateway P166 with 32MB of EDO ram. First thing to do is as more RAM. Even a SCSI disk can go slow if there's a lot of programs trying to read off it. That way quite a few files can be stored in the file system cache and won't have to be read off the disk. I would also recommend that you look into the 2.3 kernel series - it's less stable than 2.2 so it may not work for you, but the multithreading in the file system layer has led to visible improvements in performance when reading data off disks. It will boot from an IDE drive, but the files that will be available from the server will all be on the SCSI drive. That's fine. Sorry this isn't entirely Debian-related, but I use Debian and I want to install Debian on this computer, too. I'm thinking of buying a 9.1GB IBM Ultrastar 18ES and an Adaptec 2940U2W U2W/S host adapter. I would look into other brands of U2W SCSI adapters, like ones that use the Symbios logic chips - they tend to be quite a bit cheaper (up 40% cheaper last I checked) and work every bit as well.

I manually set the option=... and alias eth0 ne lines in modules.conf, and it loads correctly on boot (printing a success message to the console). However, when I look in /dev, there is no /dev/eth0 device; am I supposed to create this device manually? I looked at the /dev/MAKEDEV script, but it doesn't mention eth0 at all. Also, I have a second network card in the machine; should I install this as eth1? Thanks, - Marc

Thanks, - Marc Hi, From : http://www.linuxdoc.org/LDP/nag/node42.html , As described in chapter-, the kernel accesses a device through a so-called interface. Interfaces offer an abstract set of functions that is the same across all types of hardware, such as sending or receiving a datagram. Interfaces are identified by means of names. These are names defined internally in the kernel, and are not device files in the /dev directory. Typical names are eth0, eth1, etc, for Ethernet interfaces. The assignment of interfaces to devices usually depends on the order in which devices are configured For information concerning using the 2nd NIC : http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Ethernet-HOWTO-3.html http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/misc/multicard.html Yes, you will need to create an eth1 interface.

netatalk setup
While there is a debian netatalk distribution, I can't find any useful documentation for getting it working. Most of the instructions I can find refer to compiling and installing it on Red Hat, and the instructions don't match what I have. I've tried searching the debian archive, but it never turns up anything. I've also looked in the Debian documentation online, but that doesn't give me anything, either. man atalkd *does* give me useful information, but it doesn't work. Since my local net is on eth1, man atalkd seems to say that all I need is a /etc/netatalk/atalkd.conf with the string eth1. But I created this, and when I try to launch atalkd, all I get is: socket: Invalid argument atalkd: can't get interfaces, exiting Thinking I might need to load a module, I ran modconf, but there is nothing about appletalk, atalk or anything similar in the net section there, or anywhere else for that matter. Yet when I do apt-get install netatalk, it says I have the latest version installed. So how do I get this working?

Reading ext2fs from Windows?
I was wondering if anyone knows of a WinBlows Utility for mounting and reading/writing to a ext2fs partition from Windows? It's useful to be able to read and write my vfat partitions from Debian, but is the reverse possible? Since I rarely boot windows anymore, I usually download everything to my potato box instead, including software to keep windows up to date. Sometimes I reboot into windows and forget to grab that 20 meg update I just downloaded and would like to be able to at least get read only capability to my debian partitions without rebooting, etc. Anyone know of anything to do this?

The larger part of the problem is that xscreensaver mistakenly depends on perl instead of perl5, which causes perl-5.005 to be removed, which kills many other things.

is there a way to see a log of whatever is happening inside the x-window?
Greetings! I was wondering if there was some sort of a way to see what x-windows is doing because whenever I try to do some things like click on settings or utilities etc, nothing is happening. I'm not sure if there are errors or whatever so I wanted to check and see what was happening. is there a way to tail/check this somehow?

Re: help with dselect (on m68k)
OK, I've figured out (at least partially) what is going on. dselect is working just fine and so is everything else, except the actual CD. I gave up on dselect and rebooted, then mounted the debian CD and discovered that my system sees all the folders on it as just plain text files. That's why it can't find the directories when I direct it to them. This is probably my fault, though I'm not exactly sure why. I downloaded the cd image from the debian ftp site and made a CD. I was sure to make it 9660 format and can see all the files and folders on it with my Mac, I just can't get to them with the Linux box. Has anyone made a CD for 68K Mac from this image before? Is so, what is the secret. I tried making another disk at only 2x speed and that didn't work either. I know I have a complete valid CD image, I just can't copy it. David Kachel

Re: CPU question
Most of the time servers are I/O bound. So it would be wise to spend your money on a good NIC, SCSI adapter, SCSI hard disk, fast (IO wise) MOBO, etc. If you can re-use the P166 then do it, otherwise put a nice celeron in your server and spend your money on the I/O stuff...

Re: How to use ntp/ntpdate to fix my clock
On Tue, 15 Feb 2000, Patrick Dahiroc wrote: already on Feb 15, 2000. digging through the package database i came across ntp and ntpdate and installed both (i have an always on connection to the ntpdate is used to do a one time only update to your clock. ntp is used to discipline your clock and will in fact keep the RTC in a short leash updating it every 11 minutes. If you're going to use ntp (not ntpdate), remember to get rid of that systohc adjust crap in runlevel 6 (/etc/rc6.d, /etc/init.d; I forgot the script name, I think a search for systohc --adjust will find it). It does not play well with ntp most of the time. If you use ntp, you must use ntpdate as well. Ntp will refuse to run if your clock is off by more than a certain amount of time (which isn't very big BTW, so this is a real risk). ntpdate is used to 'force' the clock to an acceptable value at boot time, and after that you can either leave the RTC alone or use ntp to keep it synced. Ntp *requires* a reliable, fast, permanent internet connection for at least four or five hours a day to work properly AFAIK (but it really wants 24/7 connections), as well as a good configuration and nearby stratum2 time servers (it will work otherwise, yes. But not properly and you'd be better off with only ntpdate). If you don't have such a connection, restrain yourself to ntpdate. If you use modems for dialup, forget ntp and use ntpdate. If you don't have the time to read http://www.ntp.org/ and the docs in the package ntp-doc (which you didn't read or you'd not be asking the ML), and search the stratum *2* servers list for at least 2 near you (ping 300ms is a must. 100ms is desired), request permission to use them (ntp will keep hammering them every 64-1024s, unlike ntpdate which does it only once), and deal with the hassle, you'd be better off with only ntpdate. specify a server to ask. is there a list of machine that listens for ntpdate connection? where? do i need to get permission (something to do with auth There's a list in http://www.ntp.org. You want the stratum -**2**- servers, not the Stratum 1 servers. stuff) to ask those machines for the time? If you're using ntp, then YES, you must request permission to use the server about 4 times out of 5. If you're using ntpdate you should ask first, but since ntpdate only connects to the server when you run it (i.e.: once on every reboot, most people add a cron job for once a day as well) you might get away without asking permission. My advice is to stick to ntpdate, it is MUCH easier to config :-) -- One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
