Dudas sobre FreeSWAN
Hola a todos. Tengo una seria duda sobre la configuración de Debian 2.2 con FreeSWAN. He realizar un montage tal como este: BCN -- Debian/FreeSWAN -- Router -- Internet -- Router -- Debian/FreeSWAN --- Madrid. BCN es un red interna del tipo 192.168.0.0 y Madrid es una red del tipo 192.168.1.0. Mi duda es: solo dispongo de dos IP´s públicas Internet que naturalmente han de tener asignadas los routers. Entonces ¿como hago para que la VPN funcione correctamente en la transferencia de datos encriptados entre BCN y Madrid ya que Debian ha de tener asignadas dos ip´s de tipo privado ?? ¿No representa esto un serio problema ???

Yo sólo lo he notado con aplicaciones hechas con Qt y en concreto usando la versión 2.2.2, por lo que he supuesto que se trataba de un bug de esta librería, pero quien sabe, igual viene todo por un error de XFree que se da sólo en determinadas circunstancias. He podido reproducir la situación en la cual ya no te deja teclear acentos. Lo que va a continuación lo envié a la lista qt-spanish-users y lo pego aquí por que soy muy vago para escribir. A ver si alguien que tenga las Qt de woody le pasa lo mismo, o es que sólo me pasa a mí: Supongamos que tengo en la ventana principal de mi programa un widget donde se puede teclear (un QLineEdit, QMultiLineEdit o QComboBox editable). Todo va perfecto, se pueden teclear acentos, etc. Pero si abro otro diálogo que también contenga un widget editable y me situo en él, entonces ya la he fastidiado, en el widget editable de la ventana principal ya no es posible teclear vocales acentuadas (salen así: ´a´e, etc.). La única solución que he visto es cerrar el programa y volverlo a arrancar. No es un problema de mi programa, ya que he probado con el editor de textos que se incluye como ejemplo en Qt y pasa exactamente lo mismo: tecleo cualquier cosa y va bien, selecciono la opción de abrir o guardar como, y como en ese diálogo hay un QLineEdit pues deja de funcionar correctamente el QMultiLineEdit de la ventana principal. Esto ocurre en Qt 2.2.2, en la versión que tenía antes (2.0.2) no pasa.

Pero mi curiosidad pasa por saber que fue de los paquetes unstables de woody cuando era unstable, que no fueron aceptados en testing ahora, se entiende lo que pregunto?

Re: Package pools y testing
Hola En una primera aproximación, los pools son básicamente una manera diferente de organizar los ficheros de paquetes en los servidores de debian. No hace falta hacer nada especial para usarlos; podría decirse es una cuestión interna de organización de los servidores. Supongo que para que sea transparente a apt, lo que se hará es lo que voy a contar. Ahora, apt se coge el Packages.gz y cuando le pido algo lo coge de donde pone: Filename: dists/potato/main/binary-i386/net/3c5x9utils_1.1-2.deb es decir, ahora (en el mirror de uk) lo coge de aquí si pido este paquete. Pues para que use los pools deberá apuntar al paquete del pool? es así? y supongo que en pool habráel paquete: 3c5x9utils_1.1.-2.deb (para unstable) 3c5x9utils_1.2.-3.deb (para sic) 3c5x9utils_1.05.-1.deb (para stable) Voy bien profesor? :-) Porqué si no, no veo como será transparente a nosotros Gracias por todo Carles Pina i Estany E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] || #ICQ: 14446118 || Nick: Pinux URL: http://www.salleurl.edu/~is08139 Respete la velocidad: 2400 Bps.

Website con ADSL
Estamos pensando montar un pequeño site mediante adsl aunque tengo unas dudas técnicas que seguro me solucionais. Parece ser que hasta ahora se están dando ips estáticas pero que esto desaparecerá o habrá desaparecido dentro de poco. Para solventar este problema había pensado utilizar opciones como las de static.cx que te permiten tener un dominio con una ip dinámica y mediante un cron ir actualizando la ip (¿cada cuánto?). Además pensaba comprar un dominio en directnic.com por unos 15$ anuales y que entre otros servicios gratuitos ofrecen redirección a otros dominios (en este caso sereía noseque.static.cx). Por si fuera poco no tengo muy claro que calidad está dando la adsl ni cuantos usuarios simultaneos puedo soportar. 128(kb/s)/8 bits *0.6 =9.6 KB/s Explico, divido entre 8 para pasar de bits a bytes y multiplico por 0.6 porque supongo únicamente un rendimiento medio del 60 % (Exagerado?). Por este resultado parece que se pueden soportar bien 6 usuarios a 1.6KB/s simultaneamente. ¿Es cierto o la fórmula es totalmente incorrecta incluso para una aproximación? Pasados los aspectos teóricos llegará el momento de contratar la adsl. Tengo miedo porque no todo lo que he oído es bueno , bueno , nada de lo que he oído lo es. :( Me han dado buena impresión la oferta de telepolis y de arrakis. Que me aconsejais? ¿Si contrato con ellos también me capan el modem externo? Ramon Alonso

Si tu te planteas hacer de servidor, harás lo que inversamente hacen los usuarios normales. El caso es que para ratio de bajada tienes el 80% aproximadamente y ratio de subida (en tu caso de servicio) aproximadamente un 20%, con lo que la formula varia sustancialmente. Ese 20 % es en realidad unas 4 Kbytes por segundo. (Si no recuerdo mal).

If you feel like second guessing me, feel free to contribute to cdebconf, but there is nothing I hate more than language advocates pissing in the wind. -- see shy jo
FreeBSD -- Debian
Hi! I've been using FreeBSD for a long time now and would like to try out Debian. The install looks to be confusing. I'd like to do a network install. I can't find a straight answer in the docs... Can anyone tell me can I install via FTP? Exactly which floppies will I need to get going? Thanks in advance for any help, Eddie
Re: question regarding samba usage

It works pretty well using the smbmount command however i would like to have this occur automagically when I login or perhaps have the system automount this without my having to type in an extra passwd upon logging in. The point is it should not be necessary to have to go beyond merely logging in at which point the samba share should already be there or be automounted upon the logging in action or perhaps when the machine boots. Perhaps smbmount can be told not to prompt for a passwd. this might be possible with a PAM module, i don't know if its been done or not. or if its feasible... An Aside Is there anyway to make samba look into the unix passwd file other than the smbpasswd file. Usually the practice is to run a cronjob and add new userids to the smbpasswd file. Would be nice to have these be one facility for authentication. /An Aside a cronjob cannot add unix accounts to smbpasswd because the cronjob cannot know what the decrypted password is, this is required to create the smb hashes. it is possible to have samba authenticate against the unix password file. simply delete the relevant user from the smbpasswd file and hack the registry on the windows client to enable clear text passwords. if you don't use smbpasswd at all set `encrypt passwords = no' (or close tot that..) in samba.conf. the smbpasswd crap comes from MS changing win95b, win98, NT4sp4, W2K etc to send a unsalted password hash instead of the password to the server, where the hash is compared with the hash stored in the local password file, if the two hashes match the authentication suceeds. its hardly better then sending clear text passwords over the network since you can simply use the hash *as* the password. (to make it worse the hash is rather weak anyway, especially since its unsalted which makes it quite easy to brute force) in short your not really losing any security by disabling MS's so called `encryption'.

Intel 815 chipset + Hedrick IDE patches + Reiser
Hi, Does anyone know which patches I need to get ATA100 working on 2.2.18 with this chipset (ICH2)? According to http://www.linux-ide.org/ they have a 2.4 backport to this kernel, and the patches support the chipset but they don't say to what level. It's supported - go suck, basically. They don't tell you which transfer modes (DMA 1-2-3-4-5). Also, I hear that hdparm brings back some incorrect values on ATA100 channels. Is this true? If it doesn't work, I'm going back to BSD as they have ATA100 RAID support via HPT370s, 815s and anything!! Linux really needs to keep up with them a bit more :P Also, is there any way to hack ReiserFS into Debian 2.2r2 on install? Cheers, - Chris.

I tried Red Hat and Ivan Mandrake, but their package managers didn't seem to do this Ivan (maybe I just gave up on them too fast). In addition, they Ivan both locked up my system several times. Maybe recompiling Ivan the kernel would have helped this. Anyway, I am thinking Ivan about moving to Debian. However, I was wondering if it is Ivan much trouble getting KDE2 running on Debian. If so, could Ivan somebody suggest another distribution based on Debian. Automatic dependency handling is a feature of APT, not of Corel's package manager. You'll find that it performs even better with Debian, since there are no awkward corel versions of packages that actually break dependencies. One GUI frontend is gnome-apt. Other console-based frontends include console-apt, aptitude, and good old dselect. There is also stormpkg - the package manager from the Storm distribution, now retrofitted into the Debian main distribution. I have not tried it, but I hear newbies like it.

It also doesn't help that rebooting the card apparently re-initializes it and sets the volume to *almost* maximum. I think RedHat had a tool that prevented this from happening too. I've a SB64AWE Pnp also, and this just happens randomly at bootup. Happened under RedHat 6.0 also. Sometimes it does, and sometimes it doesn't, and there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it. I don't think it has anything to do with kernel versions. I do believe it has something to do with loading the module and/or MIDI soundbank. But I don't know why it does it sometimes and not others, nor have I ever bothered tracking it down. =wl -- Albert ``Willy'' Lee, Emacs user, game programmer They call me CRAZY - just because I DARE to DREAM of a RACE of SUPERHUMAN MONSTERS!
Debian and Pentium 4
From Linuxgram Issue No 147 is this piece titled Most Linux Cuts Won't Install on Pentium 4. Quoting: In another one of those awkward little moments that we have come to expect from Intel, the chip giant has confirmed that only Red Hat and TurboLinux can be installed on Pentium 4 boxes. The rest of the Linux herd won't run on the hardware. http://www.linuxgram.com/newsitem.phtml?sid=108aid=11373 What's the real deal? Will Debian run on the new Pentium 4 or not? Or is just a case of a few tweaks to some config files?

Most dists put a .config in the linux directory that reflects the options used to build the distributed kernel. Debian doesn't. However, you can get it from /boot/config-2.2.17 (if you are running Potato). Copy that file to /usr/src/linux/.config before running make menuconfig or make xconfig.

Re: installing pine
Quoting Dwight Johnson ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): These issues concern people who are _not_ beginners. Time is money and taking a lot of time to configure an application is wasteful, when an equal result can be achieved in much less time with Pine. As I said, if you're used to pine, just use the pine bindings, which someone went to the trouble of writing. If you need the exact location, it's /usr/share/doc/examples/Pine.rc . Some years back, storage cost was an issue. But these days, when you can buy a 5Gb drive for $130, the expense of storing Pine is only $0.02. If Pine saved only a single $100 consulting hour in configuration time, the tradeoff would already be gigantic in Pine's favor. The advantage offered by mutt's smaller footprint is nill on any platform larger than a PDA or cellphone. Kindly desist from offering this sort of advice. I am not party to institutional decisions. Oh, and read my signature. On the contrary, the power user does want these aids. The power user wants to make efficient use of his time by being able to quickly access help to execute commands that perhaps he uses only occasionally, like printing an e-mail or finding a particular e-mail by searching for a keyword, without having to search through a nearly endless alphabetical list of commands or waste brain synapses memorizing something he might do only once a week or less. It sounds as if you haven't noticed that / will search and highlight in the help screen as well as elsewhere. There is, in fact, an option in Pine to not display these lines of command prompts. However, in 4-1/2 years of using Pine, I have not yet begun to find these help prompts obtrusive. Well, that surprises me. Only in one respect, that I can see based on my brief exposure, is mutt better -- mutt is a better _threaded_ mail reader. It looks like a lot of effort has been put into mutt's threading features. People who want a threaded mail reader may well prefer mutt. Since I want to process my mail _strictly_ in arrival order, threaded is not a feature I would ever use. It beats me how you can deal with high volume lists (like this one) without threading. Pine's help and configuration systems are vastly superior to mutt -- making Pine much easier to learn and use on a daily basis -- I submit that these features are highly significant for 'power users' who value their time. Submit to your hearts content. These things are a matter of opinion, religion, whatever... When I post help, I might post opinions with them, particularly when solicited, as here. But I'm not interested in discussing religious issues nor indulging in a flame war.

Re: Permissions - Newbie Style Question
Quoting Bob ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): I have three debian based boxes running (two Corel and one potato.) On all three machines, the default install is to allow everyone on the system to view every directory, including each other's home directories. This is true when using telnet or ftp as well. I really have no need to read my son's directories nor he mine. That's an internal policy issue which you really have to decide for yourself. Individual user groups is a similar issue. I have two questions (for now): What is the permissions setting for the home directories. I suspect it should be something like rwx-- or rwxrwx--- if the group is unique to the specific username. Is this correct? Is one preferable to the other? Debian has IIRC vacillated between rwxr-s--- and rwxr-x---. Group-writable is just plain wrong. It's either not required (user groups) or it's a security hole (real groups). to identify specific machines in this file, such as hounddog.foobar.com? Only in your own trusted domain, where you have control. Otherwise evil.foobar.com just changes its name to hounddog.foobar.com in order to connect to your machine.

I am having a cable modem installed soon and want my system to be secure. I have only the one computer, and am running Woody. Is there a free (or low-cost) firewall which will work on Debian? I don't feel confident enough to be messing with ipchains and such. I had a look at Storm Firewall, but this is expensive at 99USD and seems way over the top for what I would need on a single workstation. I downloaded gfcc, but don't understand what to do with it. I have read the Firewall HOWTO but I really don't grasp much of it. I am embarassed to admit that I really want an out-of-box solution - something I can install and perhaps tweak a little as I get more confident. I don't do anything out of the ordinary on the Internet, just the usual mail, news and web. I occasionally use ReadAudio and ftp, but not a lot else. Install something like pmfirewall or seawall. I've used pmfirewall before and it is simple to set up. Basically what these two scripts do is write ipchains rules for you based on some of the questions you answer. I don't have any urls' handy but they should be easy to find. After installing your chains take a look at them and learn from them. One other thing you might think about is getting a cheap or free 486 and make it your firewall. hth, kent I used pmfirewall too, but the problem with it is, that it only blocks certain things it knows about. The default stand is allow (!). In my opinion that is not so good. It should be deny unless the port is explicitly opened up. I think that this would be possible via a script setup too and much better. I don't know seawall. Maybe that does it better. However, if you don't want to learn at least something about ipchains and some basics about what a firewall can do, then maybe it is ok. But then you will not know, how much security you got. I think you may be mistaken on this point. The policy PMFirewall defaults to is ACCEPT but, at least on my installation, the last rule, in my input chain, is: target prot opt sourcedestinationports . . . DENY all l- 0.0.0.0/00.0.0.0/0 n/a I'm no ipchains expert, but I believe that this rule implies that if none of the previous rules caused the packet to be accepted it'll be denied here. Now personally in addition to leaving the rule above as the last one in my input chain I set the policy to DENY, just as a precaution, but, I *think*, it's redudant given the rule above. And of course the nice thing about a script approach like PMFirewall is that it's easy to modify as you learn more about ipchains. Gary

Since I want to process my mail _strictly_ in arrival order, threaded is not a feature I would ever use. I have used pine for a few years and switched to mutt because a bug in 3.96, 4.10 and 4.20 concerning html-attachments. I see the bug is no longer there in 4.31. With Pine I just changed the sort order to the subject-line when I read mailing list and that worked well. Mutt's advantage is that I can delete a whole thread with one keystroke. An advantage of pine which I do not find in mutt is that I could record email addresses from anywhere in the message into the address book. With mutt I can create an alias from the sender's address and have to put other addresses manually in my address book. That is a bit of a nuisance. To keep pine's address book up to date is easier and less prone to errors than mutt's aliases because you can do it from a menu and pine handles all the syntax issues. When forwarding a message using pine, the attachments are included. That is not the case with mutt. Maybe it is something that can be configured. To fine tune mutt takes a lot of time. Something I enjoy about mutt which pine do not provide is the ability to search the contents of all the messages in a mailbox for a string. Another feature of mutt which I could not figure out with pine is the ability to check different mailboxes for new mail. After using mutt for about a year now I enjoy it, but still miss some of pine's abilities. Johann -- J.H.
