RE: fallo al llamar a pppd con RDSI
Madre del amor hermoso ¿de donde has sacado esto? Perdona por el comentario pero me pegué por lo menos dos meses de pelea en una de estas conexiones y despues de probar un montón de scrips me funcionaron unos que me pasaron y despues de leer la página de Arenaza. Mira, hay dos maneras de conectarse a internet por ISDN: Una de ellas de manera síncrona (con el deminio ipppd) que es la más usual La otra de manera asíncrona (con la emulación del dispositivo ttyS0 para modem normal con el dispositivo ttyI0) para saber un poco más mira la página del manual ttyI0. Luego viene lo de las autenticaciones: chap o pap. Si les preguntas a los proveedores cuál es la manera te responderán con cualquier cosa. Tuve unas peleas de la leche con ellos porque no sabían con seguridad pues confundían un modem con otro. LO solventé conectandome a una cuenta gratuita de telefónica (síncrona y autenticación pap) y, una vez funcionando, me fuí probando el login y password con las demás compañías. Me bajé la página de arenaza (web.jet.es/inaki.arenaza/linux/linux.rdsi.html) y empezé a currarmela. Una vez hecho esto me dió problemas porque no encontraba el usuario. Hice dos cosas: poner entre comillas el nombre y el password (ojo con los tabuladores es decir nombre tabulador asterisco tabulador password) Busqué el archivo de las isdn4k-utils donde decía el lugar donde aparecían el options y con qué nombre) en mi caso era en etc/ppp/ippp0.d/options. Debo comentar que en mi caso el nombre de las opciones era options a secas y no ioptions ¿?) El archivo era el ip-up situado en /etc/sysconfig (lo he mirado ahora) No obstante el fichero options puede ir vacío en el caso de que ipppd se ejecute con las opciones en linea, porque este comando busca primero en su linea las opciones y luego busca el archivo ioptions (u options). Otra cosa a tener en cuenta es poner bien el número de teléfono propio. No me digas por qué pero me daba un mensaje de error diciendo más o menos no MSN o algo así. Despues de todo esto ocurrió el milagro (no sabes lo emocionante que es) de que se conectaba bajo demanda. Te paso los scripts directamente, proceden de uno que tenía una red hat instalada y los fuí adecuando para la debian sin ningún problema. Si alguien los necesita que me lo diga y hago lo mismo de manera personal para no cargar aún más la lista. Otra página buena en castellano es la RDSI-Como de Antonio Verdejo GArcía y Francisco J. Montilla de lucas. Hay otra pregunta por ahí (no se si es tuya) de alguien que preguntaba por un modem barato. El billion vale unas 8000 pelillas y está perfectamente soportado en linux (en la página de billon dice cómo excepto que además hay que marcar el soporte sincrono en el núcleo). Para trabajar en los dos canales hay que añadir el dispositivo ippp1. Recibid un saludo y a ver si tienes suerte. Juanma

Si no recuerdo mal existen muchos virus de boot que afectan principalmente a los disquetes (Chernobil podría ser uno de ellos, pero no tengo documentación a mano).

Replace and press any key..., pero ya se te ha cargado el virus, cuando le das a una tecla, pues el equipo te arranca normalmente, pero el enemigo ya está allí.

Conexión RDSI, ¿Novacom Mix?, ¿tarjeta?...
Holas, os voy a dar la paliza con RDSI un poco :-) Quiero contratar una conexión RDSI con: * Tarifa plana respecto a la transmisión de bytes. * Tarifa plana respecto a la conexión. * Conexión permanente con IP fija del servidor bajo Debian, como para poner Apache + servidor de correo para que nos entendamos. He consultado con Telefónica y CTV y me han dicho que: * El alta, instalación y contratación de la tarifa plana de conexión corre a cuenta de Telefónica y sale por: --- Instalación de línea y alta del servicio (64Kbps)... 28000 pts. Novacom Mix. 4300 pts. --- TOTAL ALTA.. 32300 pts. Plan Novacom (tarifa plana de conexión). 16000 pts/mes. * La contratación de la conexión a Internet mediante línea RDSI e IP fija corre a cargo de CTV (o el ISP que sea): --- IP fija + Conexión Pro.. 34000 pts/año. Ahora vienen las preguntas: 1.- ¿Es conveniente el uso del Novacom Mix o es una bacalada de la Timo para que te gastes 4300 pts. más?. He leido en mensajes anteriores a la lista que funcionar funciona bajo Linux pero más bien como un módem, es decir que desaprovechas los 64Kbps de la conexión. 2.- En caso de que la recomendación sea, no, no uses el Novacom Mix, usa una tarjeta de conexión RDSI, ¿qué tarjeta es recomendable?. 3.- Si quiero conectar una intranet através de la conexión RDSI, ¿necesito un router?... esto es de principiante lo se pero ya que hay gente en la lista trabajando hace años con este tipo de conexiones mejor que lo pregunte aún cuando yo haya leido ya suficientes COMOS y mini-COMOS. 4.- En Telefónica me dicen que contratar una línea de más de 128Kbps con ISP no tiene sentido ya que no vas a superar jamás los 64Kbps, ¿dicen la verda?. Bueno paro ya porque os he dado demasiado la brasa *por hoy* con el tema, gracias por llegar a este punto del correo, se agradece :) Un saludos y hasta otra. -- Javier Viñuales Gutiérrez [EMAIL PROTECTED] Webs: http://www.ctv.es/USERS/viguPersonal http://www.ctv.es/USERS/vigu/linux/ ViguLinux PGP public key: http://www.ctv.es/USERS/vigu/vigu.pubkey

Cómo vivir con paquetes binarios y código fuente.
Hola. Tengo la necesidad de usar por una parte paquetes binarios .deb y por otra librerías compiladas a partir del .tar.gz. El problema es tener la versión binaria de gtk 1.1 y la versión de código fuente 1.2.6. ¿Hay alguna forma de decirle al gestor de paquetes que se olvide de las dependencias? ¿quizás instalando un paquete 'fantasma' que ocupe su lugar? Lo que quiero hacer concretamente es quitar el binario de gtk 1.1, hacer un make install del 1.2.6 y ya está. El problema es que el gestor de paquetes se vuelve loco al desinstalar gtk, y seguirá loco cuando intente hacer cualquier actualización.

No tienes acceso a otra máquina con la misma versión de debian para copiar el /usr/sbin? O si nó se me ocurre lo siguiente: cd /var/lib/dpkg/info fgrep -l 'usr/sbin' *.list Esto te dá la lista de los paquetes que te instalaron algo en /usr/sbin (en mi caso me dá 107 paquetes!). Después tendrías que bajarte los respectivos archivos .deb y para cada uno de ellos podrías hacer: cd / dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile paquete.deb |tar xf - ./usr/sbin para extraer lo que te interesa. Yo lo haria una vez y después lo repetiría para los otros 106 con: for each i in $(fgrep -l 'usr/sbin' *.list); do LO_QUE_SEA_PARA $i; done Pero sinceramente espero que alguien te sugiera algo mejor pués lo que te estoy sugiriendo te va a dar bastante trabajo.

Re: Conexión RDSI, ¿Novacom Mix?, ¿tarjeta?...
Hola El 24 May 2000 a las 03:19PM +0200, Javier Viñuales Gutiérrez escribio: Quiero contratar una conexión RDSI con: * Tarifa plana respecto a la transmisión de bytes. * Tarifa plana respecto a la conexión. * Conexión permanente con IP fija del servidor bajo Debian, como para poner Apache + servidor de correo para que nos entendamos. He consultado con Telefónica y CTV y me han dicho que: * El alta, instalación y contratación de la tarifa plana de conexión corre a cuenta de Telefónica y sale por: --- Instalación de línea y alta del servicio (64Kbps)... 28000 pts. Novacom Mix. 4300 pts. --- TOTAL ALTA.. 32300 pts. Plan Novacom (tarifa plana de conexión). 16000 pts/mes. ¿El Novacom está disponible para la conexión a internet? ¿No era solo para conexión entre 2 RDSIs de particulares y no contra un nodo de Infovía? ¿O entras a un nodo del proveedor en tu ciudad? * La contratación de la conexión a Internet mediante línea RDSI e IP fija corre a cargo de CTV (o el ISP que sea): --- IP fija + Conexión Pro.. 34000 pts/año. Ahora vienen las preguntas: 1.- ¿Es conveniente el uso del Novacom Mix o es una bacalada de la Timo para que te gastes 4300 pts. más?. He leido en mensajes anteriores a la lista que funcionar funciona bajo Linux pero más bien como un módem, es decir que desaprovechas los 64Kbps de la conexión. Vas a tener que actualizar el firmware del Novacom. Con el que viene tienes un rendimiento como de 9600 o menos según le dé. Despues de cargar el firmware nuevo va muchísimo mejor. Hasta 7.5 KB/s en los mejores casos (dependiendo, claro, de proveedor, carga, destino de la descarga, etc.). Eso si, con Novacon Mix 64 Kbps máximo. Lo mejor, que es un modem AT normal y corriente. No hay movidas de configuración RDSI. Mírate la página personal de Iñaki Arenaza (todo un clásico) y verás una referencia al novacom mix en el encabezado. La página está alojada en http://web.jet.es/inaki.arenaza/linux/linux-rdsi.html 2.- En caso de que la recomendación sea, no, no uses el Novacom Mix, usa una tarjeta de conexión RDSI, ¿qué tarjeta es recomendable?. Seguro que el rendimiento final es mejor y en muchas tarjetas podrás conectar con Multilink PPP a 128 Kbps si contratas el servicio con tu ISP. 3.- Si quiero conectar una intranet através de la conexión RDSI, ¿necesito un router?... esto es de principiante lo se pero ya que hay gente en la lista trabajando hace años con este tipo de conexiones mejor que lo pregunte aún cuando yo haya leido ya suficientes COMOS y mini-COMOS. Linux puede hacer de router con traslación de direcciones perfectamente (IP-Masquerading, o lo que llaman NAT otras gentes). 4.- En Telefónica me dicen que contratar una línea de más de 128Kbps con ISP no tiene sentido ya que no vas a superar jamás los 64Kbps, ¿dicen la verda?. ¿Más de 128 Kbps? Será entonces una linea dedicada, punto a punto, con tu ISP. Claro que irá más rápido, pero, ¿seguro que la necesitas? ¿seguro que tu proveedor si lo soporta no te va a clavar? Bueno paro ya porque os he dado demasiado la brasa *por hoy* con el tema, gracias por llegar a este punto del correo, se agradece :) De nada.

Re: dhcp cable modem (somewhat urgent)
Question: How do you get the dhcp client on my firewall computer to grab the cable modem address and not an address from my internal dhcp? If you are going to have two have two ethernet cards in your machine, this is fairly easy and a number of responses have already touched on how to have dhcpcd listen on only one card. If you're like me, and you use one card in the box at all, then it gets a little more fun. What it requires is one of those cable modems that marries the first ethernet card it sees. Here in central CA, our provider uses General Instruments SurfBoard modems. The first DHCP request they see, the memorize the hardware address of that card and that's the only thing they'll listen to is *that* card. That will keep other machines on your home-net from getting the IP address. Then, all you have to do is make sure that your linux box doesn't get its IP address from the *other* DHCP server. There are two ways to do this. 1 - If your other DHCP server *is* you linux box, you probably have nothing to worry about, but, just to be safe, you can probably launch your DHCP daemon *after* you get an IP address from the modem by putting /etc/init.d/dhcp start in your /etc/dhcpcd/ip-up script (or whatever it's called). 2 - If your other DHCP server is *not* the linux box that is going to be talking to the cable-modem, then just hard-code 1-to-1 mappings in your dhcpd.conf file so that it only gives out certain IP's to hardware addresses that it recognizes. - Joe

The /only/ perl construct I know of that doesn't work is something like this: if ($foo =~ /bar\/blam/){ } Vim would see the \/, see a / and mess up the colorization right there. However, this fixes it: if ($foo =~ m/bar\/blam/){ } Adding the m works fine. To me, explicitly stating a match is no big deal for me.

Any ideas about where to get additional fonts and how to make them available for ghostscript? (running debian slink, kernel 2.0.36 on a cyrix 486 dx). Put the font files in a directory of your choice, add that to the GS_LIB environment variable, export GS_LIB=/path/to/the/fonts:$GS_LIB and create a 'Fontmap' file in this directory. Format looks like this: % postscript name font file /TimesNewRomanPSMT (times.ttf) ; /TimesNewRomanPS_BoldItalicMT (timesbi.ttf) ; /TimesNewRomanPS_BoldMT (timesb.ttf); /TimesNewRomanPS_ItalicMT (timesi.ttf); See /usr/lib/ghostscript/fonts/Fontmap for examples. How to find out about the ps name depends on the type of font. For type1, there is 'type1inst' (this will create a Fontmap file for you). For truetype, the fastest way I'm aware of is using ttf2afm (in the freetype package) and grep the name from the afm: ttf2afm font.ttf | grep ^FontName -- Philip Lehman [EMAIL PROTECTED]

cd-rw for old cdrom drivers (8x)
Speed isn't your problem. Selecting the speed in cdrecord on changes how long the disk took to burn. Older CD rom drives can't read CD-RW disks, period. The reflectivity of CD-RW's is quite low, lower even than CD-R media. The optics and electronics of a CD rom reader must be able to 'see' the pits recorded onto the media to read it, and the contrast is too low on CD-RW media for some old drives to do it. Even older CD rom drives won't be able to read CD-R media either. Your 44x drive seems to be able to handle CD-RW and CD-R media, it must be of quite recent design. BTW I have a DVD-video player that also plays audio CD's (actually all such players do) but it won't play CD-R disks! (even though my old portable cd walkman will, and the cd player in my car will also. But these players will probably balk at cd-rw media). SOonly use cd-rw media for stuff you will read back later on the cd-rw burner, and use CD-R media for interchange between machines. Hi, I've burned a potato image (disk 2) on a cd-rw disk. What cdrecord options should I use in order to make the disk readable by olders cdrom drivers (8x, 4x, 16x, etc)? I've tried in a 8x and wasn't able to read even it works fine on a 44x one. = Amateur Radio, when all else fails! http://www.qsl.net/wa2mze Debian Gnu Linux, Live Free or . __ Do You Yahoo!?

Re: can't print
I'm far from the most expert on parallel ports -- until recently, I hadn't touched one in years -- but I did just have to get a parallel printer working on a potato server. I did it by (manually) insmod'ing parport.o parport_pc.o lp.o Most of the printing docs I've seen don't mention the last of these. I'm not sure if the second one is actually needed; it might be the support for non-printer devices on the parport. I found that loading parport_pc automagicly loaded parport. Atleast when using modconfig and selecting parport_pc it also grabbed parport. I think we have a layered driver here, lp sits on top of parport_pc on top of parport.

Using apt offline
Hi, I have a small number of machines which are currently running slink. I'd like to upgrade them, at least to frozen and possibly even to woody. The simple answer is apt-get (dist-)upgrade. However, there are a couple of issues with this. First, I pay for internet downloads, so I want to minimise download time, and second, at least one of the machines is not connected to the internet. The machines' configurations are pretty much identical, so I would like to download the necessary files *once* and upgrade all the machines offline. The problem is knowing how to get apt to work this way. I think that what I could do is 1. apt-get dist-upgrade --download-only on one machine 2. Transfer the downloaded files to all machines 3. apt-get dist-upgrade --no-download on all the machines. The only difficulty I have is with step (2) - is it enough to transfer the /var/cache/apt/archives directory? If not, what is the best way? More generally, what is the best way for me to keep a number of machines reasonably up to date, given 1. The only CDs I can get are slink (2.1r4) until potato hits the UK CD market. 2. I have limited network bandwidth. 3. The network bandwidth costs money. Thanks in advance, Paul Moore.

How to properly Gnomeify Storm Linux?
Hello, I have been using Storm Linux, but am tired of KDE. I installed potato, and the helix-gnome, as well as some of the window managers. Here are my questions: 1) I tried a bunch of window managers and the helixcode stuff, and now my destop is broken (I think WindowMaker did...something. All the WM menus suddenly disappeared, and nothing seemed to be right after that). Enlightenment won't configure, sawfish locks the configuration app, etc. What packages do I need to remove and reinstall to start over with my gnome desktop? Is there a way to make my Storm Linux distro into a Debian Gnome Workstation? 2) What is the proper way to convert a Storm Linux system to Gnome? My debian book says to add the following lines to the top of /etc/X11/Xsession (replace e with whatever): gmc enlightement panel exit 0 ...given all I've gone through trying to get a workable gnome desktop on this machine (broken menus, menus that suddenly disappear, configurators that don't, configurators that lock up) there must be a better way. I guess the real question is : Is there a way to make my Storm Linux distro into a Debian Gnome Workstation? IE; the desktop icons don't overlap the wm icons, the menus and configurators work, etc. Also, I use startx from the command line, no *dm logins. Thanks in advance, John

Could anyone please tell me what I have to do to access /dev/hda10? I can create it easily but trying to access it I get an 'unconfigured device' message for instance from mke2fs. Do I need a special boot time parameter? Michael P.S.: Please CC me on replies. -- Michael Meskes Michael@Fam-Meskes.De Go SF 49ers! Go Rhein Fire! Use Debian GNU/Linux! Use PostgreSQL!
RE: Building my own apt archive
I guess you should check the manpage of deb-control. Ron Rademaker PS. You could also keep all the .deb's and install them, if needed, using dpkg.

No, that wouln't work. I have debs from a lot of places (unofficial packages, updated versions backported to slink, etc, etc) and I want to combine them onto one CD.

Re: Transfering logfiles from one to another server ?
I don't know about a normal modem, but AFAIK there is some kind of callback function in isdnutils (but that will only work with ISDN).

Re: can't print
Hello there, Just to add some (perhaps) useful information: On Wed, 24 May 2000, Kenneth Scharf wrote: I did it by (manually) insmod'ing: parport.o parport_pc.o lp.o Only an issue with kernel 2.2.x and higher. With kernel 2.0.x it's a bit different. I found that loading parport_pc automagicly loaded parport. Atleast when using modconfig and selecting parport_pc it also grabbed parport. I think we have a layered driver here, lp sits on top of parport_pc on top of parport. Or something like that. Right. There's more info about all this in the file parport.txt in the Documentation in the kernel-source tree. IMHO, very good information. Regards, Daniel

gpm as repeater for X11
Hi What causes the following error? I'm using the frozen (potato) distribution. GPM is configured as repeater and ps fax shows me that it's running as -Rmsc mouse works on console. Whenever I try to start X as user or root I get: Warning: /dev/gpmdata unable to get status of mouse fd (Invalid argument) and X stops. In X I configured Protocol MouseSystems and Device /dev/gpmdata. When using PS/2 on /dev/psaux the mouse does not move at all (but at least X starts). I read something in the SuSE Support databse and turned PNP BIOS INSTALLED off in my BIOS. I find no Option there telling something about PS/2 support on/off. bye, -christian- -- Christian HammersWESTEND GmbH - Aachen und Dueren Tel 0241/701333-0 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet Security for ProfessionalsFax 0241/911879

Re: 3C905 with AsusTek K7V
I seem to recall problems with older 3c59x.o modules and newer 3C905 NICs. Newer kernels have a module that works; older ones need to have the newer version of the module (available from Don Becker's site, http://www.scyld.com/network/index.html) patched in. SInce you don't say what version of Debian or what kernel you are using, you might be experiencing this problem. In the output you sent, the key line is: eth0: 3Com 3c59x Boomerang 100baseTx at 0xa400, 00:60:97:ba:91:1d, IRQ 255 *** Warning: IRQ 255 is unlikely to work! *** Do you really get this same line when you set... the IRQ for the card to 5 in the BIOS?

Re: howto
Installation of modules is an area in which the various Linux distributions differ quite a bit. The HowTo you read doesn't reflect this variation.

Re: cpu arch performance
Hello Lee, On Tue, 23 May 2000, Lee Elliott wrote: Hello list(s), Just something I noticed after setting up an x86 system after running Debian on m68k. The m68k system was an Amiga with an m68060/50MHz which gave a BogoMIP rating of 99.something. The x86 system is a dual PIII 650MHz system and it rates as 2600 BogoMIPs. This would seem to imply that on a per MHz basis, the m68060 is the equivalent of two PIIIs. This is right. AFAIK, the hardware side of the issue goes something like this: One phase of the clock signal looks something like this: Voltage high ||| low ||| The x86 Processors will issue a command whenever the signal voltage is high. The m68k processors will issue a command whenever the signal voltage is high and the next when it's low (Motorola claims, that the 68060 issues three commands per clock cycle, I don't know why you then don't get three times the MIPS value of a x86 on a per MHz basis. I also don't know if the above mentioned holds true for Pentium and upwards. But it holds true for 386 and 486). This is why a m68k processor is on a per MHz basis really twice as fast as a x86 processor. Regards, Daniel

Re: Cannot find libz1 and libxpm4
I guess, my problem is caused by the fact that I use dpkg to investigate dependencies and to install packages and not apt-get (I must admit, that I positioned it low priority on my installing list. Since setting it up didn't work right from the beginning, I skipped it for later experiments. As a last ressort, you can always consult the search engine at http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages (- Search Package Directories) This interface will list all dependencies. Even if you don't download the packages from there (apt is certainly more convenient), it might be helpfull as a means of orientation, especially if you're still exploring the load of packages which are available. Make apt a higher priority. I was just like you, not wanting to bother with apt, until I couldn't get my ~.xsession read. After asking on this list, I found that I needed cpio installed. fred -- Using Linux
