Interesante, ¿se consigue algún tipo de ventaja al usar este esquema?, algo pareciod a un balanceo de carga. Qué rutas más raras, ¿no? ¿Tienes las 2 tarjetas conectadas al mismo segmento de red? ¿O es que estás haciendo bridging con el Linux? Es que si no no entiendo qué consigues con esta tabla de rutas. Lo más normal es que cada tarjeta esté en una subred distinta. ¡Un saludo! José Carlos García Sogo
RE: Proxy
También puedes establecer dos variables de entorno: http_proxy=tuservidor:puerto ftp_proxy=tuservidor:puerto Con esto la mayor parte de las aplicaciones de consola funcionarán sin problemas (lynx, lftp, ftp, ...) En el caso de las aplicaciones gráficas, lo más habitual es que las tengas que configurar independientemente. Un saludo - Original Message - From: Imobach González Sosa [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: debian-user-spanish@lists.debian.org Sent: Wednesday, April 04, 2001 11:56 AM Subject: Proxy Saludos. En primer lugar gracias por echarme una mano a la hora de decidir cómo hacer las particiones. Ahora voy con otro tema: jamás he trabajdo con proxys... y ya va siendo hora... la pregunta seguramente será una chorrada, pero no sé la respuesta. El tema es que tengo la máquina linux detrás de un proxy (que no administro yo... está en NT), y no me deja salir con protocolos como http o ftp (entre otros). Por supuesto, me supongo que el tema estará en que no he dicho en ningún lado que hay que usar un proxy... ¿dónde se especifica? ¿hay que instalar algún paquete? Pues eso, un saludo y gracias de antemano.

Re: Cuestiones de fonts en KDE
Hola, Yo acabo de hacer lo mismo esta tarde, y ahora mismo estoy funcionando sobre el KDE con TTF ;-) ¿Te has acordado de editar /etc/X11/XF86Config y añadirle la linea FontPath unix/:7101 ? (el puerto es el que le hayas dado al servidor de fuentes). Por cierto si tienes las XFree 4.0.2, no necesitas servidor de fuentes, le puedes poner directamente: FontPath /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype/ y mas abajo: Section Module Load freetype y teclear # cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/truetype/ # mkttfdir En mi opinion va mejor que con servidor de fuentes.

Según me han dicho, tengo que autentificar mi conexión, pero se les olvidó decirme como :( y me remiten a una página de ayuda en la que aparece Outlook y Netscape, pero nada que se parezca a Exim+Mutt. Con estos MTA y MUA, ¿cómo puedo validar mi usuario?.

IPX
Ae pessoal, tenho um problema com o protocolo IPX... Instalei o módulo "IPX Networking" e o pacote "IPX"... quando coloco alguma placa na rede (quando ligo o cabo) o debian adiciona o protocolo IPX (802.2 e 802.3) na placa, automaticamente... nao quero isso, alias, quero uma das placas sem IPX nenhum (nem 802.2 nem 802.3)... já tentei deletar de tudo quanto foi jeito mais o protocolo volta (volta depois de uns 10 seg)... não quero que ele fique iniciando automático... eu quero fazer a configuração na mão, por exemplo: "ipx_interface eth0 802.2" (+ ou - isso) E aí? Quem me ajuda? Outra coisa! Quais os programas ou configurações eu devo utilizar(onde devo alterar) p/ configurar as placas e estas (as configurações) não sejam perdidas ao dar boot na máquina? Ex: modconf - fica com os módulos mesmo que eu dê boot... esse eu sei... insmod - fica com os módulos adicionados ou eu tenho que executar toda vez que iniciar (por meio de script)? modprobe - fica com os módulos adicionados ou eu tenho que executar toda vez que iniciar (por meio de script)? ipx_? - fica configurado ou eu tenho que executar toda vez que iniciar (por meio de script)? route - fica configurado ou eu tenho que executar toda vez que iniciar (por meio de script)? Seria melhor eu usar algum tipo de script na inicialização ou não? Ex: insmod ne2k-pci ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 ipx_interface eth0 802.2 route add default gw 200.177.116.200 dev eth0 px_route ...

Instalacao remota e configuracao inicial
Senhores, Estou experimentando Debian pela primeira vez. Trabalho com o Linux desde 94, slackware 2.2 e kernel 1.1.59. Desde essa época era a maior facilidade instalar um sistema a partir de outra máquina usando NFS. Já dei nó em pingo dágua fazendo instalações das mais variadas maneiras. Estou perplexo com a Debian: não possui uma forma simples para se instalar remotamente. Baixar 25MB para o HD local antes de iniciar a instalação pareceu-me muito pouco inteligente. E se a máquina não tem nada mais que um floppy disk, isso é muito ruim. Nas demais distribuições estou habituado a colocar um disco de boot e instalar tudo, com o HD sem absolutamente nada, e sem cdrom na maquina (apenas HD, floppy e placa de rede). Espero poder rever favoravelmente minha opinião após esse choque inicial... :) Mas isso não é o meu problema. Slack, RH ( derivados) e a SuSE tem formas extremamente simples para fazer a configuração inicial do sistema: slack-setup, RH-linuxconf e outros, SuSE-YaST. Como é na Debian? Só fui questionado sobre teclado e timezone. Como é que se configura: módulo para placa de rede TCP/IP resolv.conf Tive que fazer isso no braço, incluive para poder me conectar via FTP com a outra máquina que tinha as imagens dos CDs. Depois configurei o /etc/modules, /etc/network/interfaces e /etc/resolv.conf editando diretamente. Isso é coisa simples de fazer, mas não esperava NÃO ser questionado sobre essas informações. Minha pergunta é: não tem nada para se fazer isso logo na inicialização? Pulei alguma etapa? Existe algum DOC para quem inicia no Debian mas já conhece Linux muito bem? Existem algum doc que fala sobre a filosofia da distribuição? Ah! Isso é importate: Tenho em outra máquina as imagens do CD1-nonUS e do CD2, montadas via ftp. Eu tenho que ficar selecionando o path de um CD e depois do outro CD no dselect? Tem como informar que se tem mais de uma fonte? E para instalar o non-US? Achei agora o dselect Documentation for Beginners, acho que o que eu quero é um multi_ftp. :) Tudo bem, vou testar o multi_nfs... É duro ser newbe... :)) --- Wagner [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Desde essa época era a maior facilidade instalar um sistema a partir de outra máquina usando NFS. Já dei nó em pingo dágua fazendo instalações das mais variadas maneiras. Estou perplexo com a Debian: não possui uma forma simples para se instalar remotamente. Baixar 25MB para o HD local antes de iniciar a instalação pareceu-me muito pouco inteligente. E se a máquina não tem nada mais que um floppy disk, isso é muito ruim. Nas demais distribuições estou habituado a colocar um disco de boot e instalar tudo, com o HD sem absolutamente nada, e sem cdrom na maquina (apenas HD, floppy e placa de rede). Espero poder rever favoravelmente minha opinião após esse choque inicial... :) Mas isso não é o meu problema. Slack, RH ( derivados) e a SuSE tem formas extremamente simples para fazer a configuração inicial do sistema: slack-setup, RH-linuxconf e outros, SuSE-YaST. O debian tem o pacote linuxconf também. Como é na Debian? Só fui questionado sobre teclado e timezone. Como é que se configura: módulo para placa de rede TCP/IP resolv.conf Tive que fazer isso no braço, incluive para poder me conectar via FTP com a outra máquina que tinha as imagens dos CDs. Depois configurei o /etc/modules, /etc/network/interfaces e /etc/resolv.conf editando diretamente. Isso é coisa simples de fazer, mas não esperava NÃO ser questionado sobre essas informações. Minha pergunta é: não tem nada para se fazer isso logo na inicialização? Pulei alguma etapa? Acredito que não. Existe algum DOC para quem inicia no Debian mas já conhece Linux muito bem? Existem algum doc que fala sobre a filosofia da distribuição? Dê um a olhada em http://debian-br.sourceforge.net/ http://www.debianplanet.org/debianplanet/ http://www.debian.org/ Ah! Isso é importate: Tenho em outra máquina as imagens do CD1-nonUS e do CD2, montadas via ftp. Eu tenho que ficar selecionando o path de um CD e depois do outro CD no dselect? Tem como informar que se tem mais de uma fonte? Para isso existe o apt, você precisa configurá-lo para encontrar este caminho e então apt-get install pacote e ele faz tudo para você. Leia a página de manual do apt. E para instalar o non-US? Mesma coisa.

Re: Help! Accidentally started deleting /usr

My Dad mentioned that Novell Netware has an undelete which basically puts off really deleting stuff for about 5 days --- unless it has to because of lack of space. This sounds like a _very_ useful feature. Good lord, please NO. Having an undelete, IMHO, leads to very sloppy practices - better to learn to make backups of important data - and to use the root account with care. I tend to agree. Backups are an essential element for system data security. Reliance on undelete leads to sloppy habits. There were some good suggestions, though - make an alias from rm to 'rm -i' so that you always get prompted against making massive mistakes. I prefer not doing this. Treat 'rm' as if it's the red hot poker it is. In particular, aliasing rm to interactive mode gets you in the habit of relying on a crutch which may not be be present. I prefer *not* to invoke rm as root whenever possible, particularly when dealing with whole directory trees. There was a thread on this topic as well recently -- how to automate practices with find. When deleting large swathes of files, my MO is typically: - Create a script listing the files to be deleted, explicitly. Scan this several times before committing it. - When deleting a tree of directories, chown it to a standard user, then delete as that user. You get a two-stage commit, and the dangerous action (rm) is performed as an unprivileged user. I've accidentally deleted a few projects in my own home directory - but I make backups at least once a week and burn them to CD. Even in the event of a catastrophic failure of my hard drive, I only need to buy a new drive and copy my home directory over. A stitch in time saves nine. -- Karsten M.

LD_LIBRARY_PATH or similar so dynamical linking is not done against the standard /lib/libc.so.6?

Standard info: I have looked through all docs I could find (new nfs-HOWTO on http://nfs.sourceforge.net/ (needs to be put into woody, BTW, the currently included one doesn't deal with new nfs-utils and mountd, lockd, statd lines in hosts.allow/deny), /usr/share/doc/portmap, list archives, man update-inetd (which I don't seem to understand at all)), but still, yadda yadda.I run woody with kernel 2.4.2 with kernel-server (v3 also enabled) I have kernel-server support on the server, no firewall on the internal interface, I don't run NIS. NFS works, but I'm quite unsure if I did it right: I couldn't figure out from the docs how to set access control correctly.My external interface is firewalled anyway, but still I want to have more than one security level, and I want to learn. Here's what I have found out and done: User has the same UID/GID on client and server. /etc/exports on server and /etc/fstab on client are OK. The server's /etc/inetd.conf I haven't changed for nfs. It has no entries for nfs, just: #:RPC: RPC based services /usr/share/doc/portmap/README.gz and the new HOWTO tell me to set in /etc/hosts.allow: portmap: my.sub.net.number/my.sub.net.mask mountd: my.sub.net.number/my.sub.net.mask lockd: my.sub.net.number/my.sub.net.mask statd: my.sub.net.number/my.sub.net.mask which I have done (I deny ALL:ALL in hosts.deny). On the server I have running: portmap, rpc.statd, inetd, [nfsd], [lockd], [rpciod], rpc.mountd On the client there is running (when nfs dirs are mounted): portmap, rpc.statd, [lockd], [rpciod] But a tcpdchk on the server tells me: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 14: portmap: service possibly not wrapped warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 15: mountd: no such process name in /etc/inetd.conf warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 16: lockd: no such process name in /etc/inetd.conf warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 17: statd: no such process name in /etc/inetd.conf Yeah, they aren't. but why? how? should I?

Re: Proposal: dpkg change: scripts in /var/lib/dpkg/tmp.ci
- I mounted /var as noexec/nodev because of security reasons. - I created partition /exec for using it on scripts etc that needs to be - executed. - noexec provides no real security whatsoever. nosuid,nodev are more - useful. - - try this: - - $ cp /bin/date /noexecfs - $ /noexecfs/date - (you get a permission denied) - $ /lib/ld-2.1.3.so /noexecfs/date - (date runs normally) well, shouldn't be this considered ad ld.so bug? - this is for potato, woody/sid would probably be /lib/ld-2.2.2.so or - something. the point is noexec does not prevent you from running binaries - on that filesystem. same thing with shell scripts, /bin/sh - /noexecfs/shellscript.sh works just fine without even execute - permissions. of course I know about shell scripts. But i think the main difference is shell scripts shouldn't make harm as binaries can. -- Matus fantomas Uhlar, sysadmin at NEXTRA, Slovakia; IRCNET admin of *.sk [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ ; http://www.nextra.sk/ Micro$oft random number generator: 0, 0, 0, 4.33e+67, 0, 0, 0...

I'll tell you something about sawfish that's even more annoying. I have focus follows mouse and autoraise set to 500ms.
