Re: mirror ftp
Hola Carles... decías, el 06 de dic de 2000, a las 09:17 +: Si se está interesado en hacer un mirror de Debian, qué pasos hay que seguir? Básicamente, tienes que hacerte un script majo usando rsync para actualizarte el mirror y meterlo en tu cron diario. Yo administro la máquina ftp.gul.uc3m.es del GUL de la UC3M. Entre otras cosas tenemos un mirror de debian completo (i386). De hecho, aunque mola hacerse un mirror, puesto que también estamos en rediris deberías ver si no te hace falta. Por lo que sé, en rediris va bastante bien. De hecho, en cuanto nos amplien el ancho de banda de salida de la universidad de 4Mps a 155Mps, quitaremos el QoS, e ira bastante mejor... ;) Es posible que en mi universidad (Barcelona, dentro de Red Iris) se haga uno, pero no sé si se hace con wget a saco o hay unos pasos. Tambien interesante como se actualiza para que el mirror esté a la última :-) (por si hacemos Woody) Tu eliges de qué quieres hacer la réplica... En mi máquina, tengo potato, slink, woody y sid. (i386), binarios y fuentes, además de non-US. He mirado en las páginas de debian.org pero no he visto instrucciones.

Un buen método es utilizar el 'rsync'. Con la mayoría de mirrors de debian funciona, prueba 'rsync rsync://ftp.de.debian.org/'.

RE: Problema con FAT32
Pues eso es lo que yo sospechaba, sabía por la documentación que he consultado que el formata FAT32 está soportado en linux pero no sé por qué no me monta mi partición (ya adjunté mi fichero fstab a esta discusión), no es el soporte del kernel porque las opciones ya las tengo compiladas como módulos (existen dos opciones de soporte relacionadas: soporte de fat y de vfat - esta última para los nombres largos de windows y necesita de la primera-). Además no tengo problemas en montar dos de las particiones que tengo con FAT16, lo cual corrobora el soporte del kernel de este tipo de particiones. Según leí el montaje de las particiones de distintos tipos de FAT lo hace automáticamente el mount sin necesidad de especificar nada (aunque también se puede obligar y lo he intentado), el problema es que monto cualquier partición FAT, sea esta primaria o unidad lógica, siempre que no sea FAT32. Por todo esto creo que el problema apunta a algo raro que hay al comienzo de dicha partición, que construí con el fdisk de linux y formateé con el format de windows, desde windows accedo a ella de maravilla, desde linux me da el error que comenté de mount (hay algún bloque erróneo en la partición o el sistema de archivos no está soportado). ¿Qué puede estar pasando? ¿tendría que pasarle un scandisk desde windows? ¿hay alguna erramienta en linux que pueda utilizar para chequear/testear este tipo de particiones y que corrija el posible problema? En definitiva, ¿hay alguna luz que me ilumine porque estoy en uno de esos puntos en los que no se sabe como seguir ni que probar? Gracias múltiples. Muchus besitos. A seguir bien, y espero vuestras inspiradas respuestas. *** REPLY SEPARATOR *** On 8/12/00 at 19:13 daniel wrote: pues no se el por que del problema, y menos la solucion :-(, pero por si sirve un poco, tengo un disco similar al tuyo, y una particion fat32 de 13G , la cual monto sin problemas,(no recuerdo como tengo configurado el fstab y no estoy en ese equipo), por lo que incompatibilidad de linux con este formato no tendria que ser, lamento no poder ayudar. daniel - Original Message - From: VerdeOliva [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: debian-user-spanish@lists.debian.org Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 07, 2000 8:26 AM Subject: Re: Problema con FAT32 Parece que el problema apunta a algún problema de incompatibilidad entre el FAT32 y el reconocimiento de este sistema por LINUX.

Intenta cambiar el orden de montaje, es decir. Monta el hdc9 antes que cualquier otro, si lo monta y el ultimo lo rechaza, mi teoría se cumple. Si te lo rechaza de todas formas, aunque no montes ningúna otra particion, existe algun problema con dicha particion.

apt y dos juegos de CD

Instalé con la no oficial y tenía los cds viejos con el apt. Ahora le he añadido (con apt-cdrom add) los de la revista... y ya no me funciona. Le digo apt-get update y luego apt-get upgrade y me dice que tiene 85 paquetes para actualizar pero no los actualiza. Si le comento las líneas que corresponden a los cds viejos entonces me lo actualiza sin problema, pero si no, no hay tu tía.

[Fwd: Re: modem Supra interno]
Pues yo tengo ese moden y su precio ronda las 10.000 Pts, osease nada barato, y si incluye el DSP cosa que el Supra 56k SST no incluye, pero el 56k V iPRO si lo incluye, es cierto que no funciona, pero no es por que sea un softmodem total!!, Lo que pasa es que Diammond, no suelta prenda, pero si tuvieramos las especificaciones (datasheets) me imagino que alguien ya habría hecho el driver adecuado para Linux!! Lo mejor es irse a un modem Externo, o a un ISA (aunque no sería recomendable), o bien a alguno de los modems internos (PCI) que ya tiene disponibles drivers para Linux, (por ejemplo los que llevan un chipset LUCENT), quizás algun día se decidan a hacer publico los datasheets, y entonces ya no habrá problema!!

remote installing debian.

Re: SIOCADDRT: File exists
I use my Debian 2.2r2 as a router, but it always shows the message SIOCADDRT: File exists at boot every time. I use the kernel 2.2.17 that come with the debian 2.2. That's because your using the old /etc/init.d/network file, what you can do is edit that file and comment: #route add -net 127.0.0.0 #route add -net 192.168.0.0 or whatever your network numbers are, the idea is, 2.2 kernels do this them selfs. In Debian 2.2 there is a new file: /etc/network/interfaces which is the new way, just look in the docs of I think netbase (/usr/share/doc/netbase). Hope this helps. - New things are always on the horizon.

You want to install Debian on a system which you do not have direct physical access to? Tricky, but not impossible. You'll probably want to have someone you can call to physically wrangle the system, and might be advised to pull to box, run the installation locally, then have it redeployed at the colo. I'd particularly advise this if you're think telnet is a protocol still worth using. Remote installation of Debian isn't a recommended or supported method. With luck and skill, a remote installation might be possible along the lines of a chroot jail method discussed on this list recently. Assuming you don't have a high level of technical skill, I'm going to leave my answer vague and recommend you pull the box and have the install done locally, unless you care to do the legwork to figure out what the chroot method would entail. -- Karsten M.

Case of login relevant?
Hi there, this is to raise the issue whether the case of the login (username, user-ID) is relevant on Linux. I today observed that ipopd 4.7c-1 does NOT pay attention to the case of the login, but that proftpd 1.2.0pre10-2 DOES honor the case of the login (this is on a pure Debian 2.2 system.) I'm not sure which one is correct (I believe ipopd is correct,) but in either case shouldn't both packages react the same way? Is there a definitive standard that defines what's right and what's wrong?

I'm thinking of installing potato, since am really fed up of half-boiled distros (RH7, for instance), but I´d like to have some packages in more bleeding-edge versions. Any problem about that? Should I install woody instead if I intend to use non-stable packages? -After reading Debian docs, I don't get how updating works. Should I expect stable packages of gnome 1.2, XFree 4, etc.for potato or they're reserved for when woody becomes stable? In different words: through updating, does potato become woody, or potato doesn't change and it's woody what will change until stability? -How stable is unstable? I'm not running a server, should I go to woody directly? I know these are questions are very newby-like, but you don't know how different Debian sounds for a Red Hat/Mandrake guy.

Slow LAN transfers on Deb laptop
I've been fooling around with a 2.2 Debian distribution on a ThinkPad T20 (company laptop, *cough*), and the network transfers on my home LAN are really slow. After spending a few hours going through Deja and various HOW-TO's, I'm running out of hairs to pull... - The file transfers work fine when I boot Win98 up on the laptop so the network hardware should be ok. - I'm using a LinkSys PCMCIA card that's supposed to be NE2K based, and cardmgr recognizes it as such. Nothing seems to be amiss in the syslog with respect to picking up the card. - I was monitoring the eth0 interface with ifconfig, and the bigger the files, the worse the collisions become. A small file or info requests are fairly collision free, but transferring a 2.5 MB file will give me collisions of around 17-25% of the packets received. But the laptop is only negligibly competing for hub time vs. the other computers on the LAN . - I've tried excluding certain IRQs from the card in case there was a hardware conflict, but after excluding 3,4, 7, and 11, I'm starting to think that this isn't the issue. Does anybody here have any ideas as to what's going on? I thought Linksys was fairly decent wrt Linux compatibility (?) Steve

Re: Going Debian: advice request
To answer one of your questions Once a stable version is released, it only gets updated (primarily) with security fixes. In other words, you won't see XFree 4.X, etc. in potato. So potato will never become woody, but rather woody will become frozen for testing, and then stable when it's released. As soon as woody goes frozen, a new unstable branch is started to pick up where woody left off. Tom Rodolfo Canet-Castello wrote: Hi all After long doubts and four years using Linux, I'm finally decided to use Debian as my distro and not change anymore. Would you kindly clear some things to me? I'm thinking of installing potato, since am really fed up of half-boiled distros (RH7, for instance), but I´d like to have some packages in more bleeding-edge versions. Any problem about that? Should I install woody instead if I intend to use non-stable packages? -After reading Debian docs, I don't get how updating works. Should I expect stable packages of gnome 1.2, XFree 4, etc.for potato or they're reserved for when woody becomes stable? In different words: through updating, does potato become woody, or potato doesn't change and it's woody what will change until stability? -How stable is unstable? I'm not running a server, should I go to woody directly? I know these are questions are very newby-like, but you don't know how different Debian sounds for a Red Hat/Mandrake guy.

Network printing
Hi, Firstly, thanks to everyone who helped me with my sound card worries, I finally have it all working nicely including Audio CD's working. I have had problems with sound for quite a long time so I am pretty damm happy. Anway's, another problem I have had for some time is the inability to print. I have a HP720 hooked to my Windows 2000 box and would really like to print from Debian to it. I also have a NT box which uses the printer. Is it possible that I could print to the network printer? My Debian machine goes straight into a Hub which has cable modem going into it also and my Windows 2000 and NT machine go into a Linksys router which also accesses the cable modem. The main reason I do not use the router for the Debian box is because I have a static IP for hosting my website and a domain name that is resolved to the IP. Not sure if I said to much here but thought it might decide if I could or could not network print.
