Re: Database performance
First thing is I have no experience at all with SCSI, so I'll only talk about IDE. Hardware raid is 'easier' as you don't have to load any driver in booting process. Anyway, there are few pure IDE hardware raids (most need a driver to properly work) and are a bit more expensive than the others. With a 'not pure' hw raid, configuration will be less easier than using software raid. In the other hand, software raid is in general more stable and configurable as it is being proved by many thousand people as it is open source. Moreover, the lost of cpu caused by software raid is neglible with nowadays processors, at least whenenever the number of stripping hardrives is a power of 2 (in raid 5, would be power of 2 plus 1 drive for redundancy). This is obvious as in this case it only has to split/join a chunk of bytes, not cpu intensive at all. I have a HighPoint hardware raid (not a 'pure' hw raid), so I do prefer using software raid. I have tested both in raid 0 (stripping), and notice no difference in perfomance (cpu or memory use and in drive speed) at all between both. If you do IDE raid with for example 2 drives, hdparm will show you no increase in buffered-cache speed as it is limited by your data bus throughput, but almost double speed in buffered disk access. Another point is chunk size. As I use raid to speed accessing to programs and multimedia files, most operations are done to big data chunks, so it takes half the time than before. When chunks read/writen to the drive are small, stripping will improve but not that much. This is the point, you'll have to check if index processing will make short or big chunks accesses to the drive (I'm not sure about it). El dom, 04-04-2004 a las 03:48, Christopher L.

Visor & Pilot-xfer - Not synching up regularly
I'm attempting to get my Handspring Visor to work with Debian stable and I'm running into some errors that for the life of me I can't figure out. (somewhat lengthy post but I want to make sure I give as much data as possible) Some info: Kernel: 2.4.25 Debian 3.0 (stable) All kernel configurations according to the HOWTO at Linuxpda.com have been completed. The USB devices work (I can verify if via 'usbview'). My issue is strange in that the visor works once in a while, but when it does and how and why seem to be completly random. For example, this morning I pushed the hotsynch button and typed in pilot-xfer -p /dev/ttyUSB1 -l and I got a listing of the files. A few minutes later, I repeated it and got the same result. I then managed to do a KPilot backup, no problem. However, about ten minutes after that, I attempted to synch up again and it failed. I had made no changes whatsoever to the system. I double checked to make sure I'd killed the Kpilot daemon in case it was confusing things. No go. I rebooted the computer to get to the 'clean' state that I had the first time I tried to synch up. No go. The system recognizes the visor as seen in 'usbview' (shows my scanner, printer, and visor). It doesnt see it until I press the hotsynch button and it 'creates' the device, but I understand that's normal. When I do a pilot-xfer -p /dev/ttyUSB1 -l I get the following responses: $ pilot-xfer -p /dev/ttyUSB1 -l Listening to port: /dev/ttyUSB1 Please press the HotSync button now...

[newbie] Dependency problems installing libssl0.9.7
Hi all. I'm new to Debian, so if I'm asking any questions that's covered in the docs just point me in the right direction. I'm trying to upgrade from libssl0.9.6 that's in stable to libssl0.9.7 that's in testing. To do so, I added the followinglines to /etc/apt/sources.list: deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing main deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ testing main deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US testing/non-US main deb-src http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US testing/non-US main Unfortunately, libssl0.9.7 has a dependency on libc6 v2.3.2, and stable comes with libc6 v2.2.5. The problem is that libc6 v2.3.2 doesn't seem to be in the package listings. Then I decided to try getting the source and building the .deb myself. When I tried that, I get informed that I need a newer version of debconf or some such. Tracking down the dependencies for debconf also leads me back to a dependency on libc6 v.2.3.2. Aargh! Am I missing something? Do I have to add something else to sources.list to pick up libc6 v2.3.2? Thanks, -Mark -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

mc with ext2undel on sarge?
Hi Debian! Perusing the choices for ext2 undelete programs, it appears that midnight commander is by far the best. But :-( it does not compile (mc-4.6.0) under the latest sarge. You install e2fslibs-dev and ./configure --with-ext2undel and you get weird errors. First he cannot find some machine specs headers, if you symlink those, there are just plain errors because the includes are all wrong. This used to work on Sarge last november, but no longer. Anyone been successful getting mc to work with the undelete function on sarge? It compiles on woody. As things stand now to undelete I would have to reboot immediately, restore woody elsewhere and use mc from there... Thanks.

You need to have a fully-qualified domain name set up for the certificate generation code to work. If you don't have a domain name of your own (i.e soon.co.uk) or one setup by your ISP, set it to localdomain (which would make your FQDN chopin.localdomain) If you want to remotely administer your server you want a real domain name though. -- Jaldhar H.

How to mount NFS system behind DSL routers
Hi all, I have the folowing scenario. NET A Router A Router BNET B 192.168.0.x ->> DSL Router --->>> iNet <<<--- DSL Router <<- 192.168.0.x I know, I know, the two networks are overlapped, but that's not a problem, they do not see each other. On Router A I have all port redirected to machineA inside Network A, and the same on Router B, I'm trying to mount a NFS directory from machineB into machineA, but I'm getting error messages telling me "Permission denied", permissions are ok, and on machineB syslog apears messages as " invalid port 12481 ...", I have follow some docs I have found searching on google that show me how to setup all daemons to work on knows ports instead of radom ones given by portmaper. Any hint or suggestion? mounting a IPSec tunnel is not an option, or any other tunnel technologie, I have no full control over the systems, so I can not install new kernels with that functions enabled. There is any way to let the NFS server to run under this conditions. Best regards -- _ _ // Raúl A.

Webmin install problem might be openssl or hostname
Hello I have posted this problem to the debian user list because I suspect that this is a system rather than a webmin problem. Currently I am trying to install Debian (Testing) on a Compaq Professional Workstation 5000 (P-Pro SMP) the goal being to set it up as a headless print server for a home network. In order to remotely administer this server I have been trying to install webmin (via aptitude) but unfortunately I have been getting the following error message: Setting up webmin (1.130-1) ... miniserv.pem: No such file or directory hostname: Unknown host I understand that openssl generates the 'miniserv.pem' and as far as I can tell it is installed and working fine. Also when I run the hostname command I get: chopin which is the hostname I gave the computer during initial set-up. It would be great if some knowledgeable person please point out the blindingly obvious error I am making here. Any useful pointers gratefully received.

Re: apt-get install hangs while unpacking
The problem is most likely to occur on large deb files. Small one are
much more likely to install OK. The problem is not limited to any one
particular file. Also, dpkg -i is more likely to work than apt-get.
Somewhere someone said that it may be a corrupt library. I reinstalled
lots of packages and that didn't fix the problem. I just went through the
painful process (many, many hangs requiring repeat runs!!) of upgrading to
testing to see if that fixed the problem. I don't think it did. Right
now I am really questioning my decision to switch from Redhat over to
debian. The main draw for me was the power of apt-get, but it is more
problem than solution. Arg! I wish there was someone with a fix for
this.

Re: ext3 journal problem
Marvin Stodolsky wrote: There is a faulty ext3 journal on my Debian desktop system (currently on laptop), blocking booting or e2fsck. The precipating event may have been the copying of a tarball to /root/ which exceeded Root's reserve space. The shut down appeared normal, but the reboot failed. I have an alternate RedHat partition for developement purpuses. When I try to fsck the Debian /dev/sda2 therefrom, there is a complaint about the Journal and fsck quits. How could I disable the ext3 Journal, so that the file system could be more directly FSCKed? I believe this would be tune2fs. The -0 option should allow you to clear the has_journal option of the filesystem. According to the man page, it appears that prefixing the option with '^' will clean the option (whereas '+' will set the option). On my reading of the man page, "tune2fs -O ^has_journal /dev/sda2" might be what you want. But I can't recommend this as I have never encountered your problem myself. See whether something along these lines isn't what seems to you to be what you need.

ext3 journal problem
There is a faulty ext3 journal on my Debian desktop system (currently on laptop), blocking booting or e2fsck.

I have an alternate RedHat partition for developement purpuses. When I try to fsck the Debian /dev/sda2 therefrom, there is a complaint about the Journal and fsck quits.

did the same thing when I wrote a debian mirroring script that basically
does the same thing as debmirror only using rsync. :)
Well... ours /does/ take up less disk space :-).
I had no idea about deborphan before; will have to investigate it more
fully. It seems very useful, though. Thanks for letting me know about
it.
There is another debian-related script at my site. It simply looks for
packages you've removed but not purged and gives you the chance to purge
them. OK; I'm going to brace myself for the news that this has been
done before too :-).
Well, if it HAS already been done I don't know about it. It wouldn't be
hard to do it just from a command line, but a script to handle it would
be nice IMO. Just make sure it shows which packages would be purged and
asks for confirmation BEFORE it actually purges them... :)
I used to use a combination of apt and deborphan to keep my primary
workstation lean (I try out software as it strikes me). In the past week
I've discovered (rediscovered) aptitude. I had thought it was only an
uninteresting (to me) interactive/GUI installer. Not so. Use it from the
command line just like you would apt-get or dpkg.
It tracks packages installed automatically as dependencies, and will
prompt you to remove them if as a result of a later operation they are
no longer needed. This eliminates (for me) the need for deborphan.
Like I say, I've only been using it for about a week, but following are
a few examples that seem relevant to what you are asking here. Use the
-s option to only simulate the operation.
# aptitude purge ~c
purges files that are removed but still have config files installed
("rc" in "dpkg -l")
# aptitude search ~r~i
equivalent to "deborphan -a". any package which no other lists as an
important dependency, and which is installed. Maybe add '!~E' to not
include essential priority packages, and '!~sbase' to not include
packages in base section. '!' is the negation operator.
Be sure to read /usr/share/doc/aptitude/README for the more complete
documentation if you install it.
Its tracking of automatically installed dependencies works best of
course if you use aptitude right from the base install, but I've managed
to get it set fairly well on my long-in-use system with a bit of tinkering.
Part of doing this for you might be, as described in an example in the
man page:
# aptitude markauto ~slibs
will start you off by marking all installed packages in your libs
section as having been automatically installed, which is usually correct.

'apt-get {install,upgrade,dist-upgrade}' works as intended. However,
it has the following limitations :
. no notification is a package becomes 'obsolete' (removed from
the package repository)
. no way to trace dependencies to resolve any
installation/upgrade issues
. no way to track what packages are automatically installed
solely to meet a dependency (and therefore no way to
automatically remove them if the package depending on it
is removed)
. no way to install and remove packages simultaneously (you
must run apt-get at least twice)
. no way to browse what packages are available or installed
. no way to show details for just a specific version of a
package ('apt-cache show' gives details for all available
versions)
I'm sure this list isn't exhaustive, but it gives an idea why it is
recommended to use a program intended for end-user (admin) use such as
aptitude instead of a development proof-of-concept program (which is
what 'apt-get' and 'apt-cache' are).

Then, what would be the proper ('Debian'?) way to do such configuration?
Are you referring to individual apps' configurations, their init.d
scripts or is there any one centralized place where I can achieve such
behaviour for all the apps I choose?
What you're describing sounds just like something I'm after; though it's
not often I need to reboot Debian (and these network-related problems
during boot are even fewer), it's annoying having to wait seemingly
indefinitely for something I know isn't going to work. I'd like the
system to be just as smart about it, identifying tasks it can leave
behind or to be performed later in the background, not keeping me
waiting for it.

I agree its annoying - but I haven't ever had to interfere manually as long as I leave it long enough So I take it it's normal then and I was just being too impatient. I'll try keeping my hands off the keyboard (and the reset button) the next time this happens - luckily downtime hasn't been a major problem in our network (at least up to now) so it may be a while until I get to test this.

How can I halt the PC during boot if CPU is running too fast?
I can O/C my computer stable to 230mhz FSB in Windows but it's not stable in Linux -- I get ReiserFS corruption. Up to 220mhz is stable everywhere. (Actually I can push it farther but don't want too much heat). I'd like to check /proc/cpuinfo early in the runlevel init scripts, preferably before the root is mounted, and halt if the MHz number is too high. However since 'sed', 'cut', 'bash', and 'halt' are only available on the filesystem, I'd either need a special tool like busybox available somewhere or else I have to compile this into the kernel itself. (1) How can I stop the computer from booting during boot process, based on detecting the CPU MHz? (2) How can I run code before the root volume is mounted? (3) Is this only possible during the Kernel itself and therefore I need to ask on a kernel mailing list? Thanks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Hi, I would like to install php 4.3.5 on my debian woody, (which is not available from apt-get stable source->) for that it seems that I have to build my own package, but I am not sure how to do it right: I have used tar source of php-4.3.5, did apt-get build-dep package and then tried dpkg-buildpackage ... without success, getting same error 'unable to determine source package' Please somebody help me! -Alain- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

If that doesn't work, then you didn't install the GUI. To install a minimal GUI, log in as root and run: apt-get install x-window-system You may also want to install the KDE or Gnome desktops (or both). The commands for those are: apt-get install kde apt-get install gnome Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Accessing MySQL across private network
I suppose the answer to my question is obvious, but I don't see it. I have two nearly identical Woody servers set up for LAMP on a private network. I want to access MySQL on server2 (192.168.1.4) from server1 (192.168.1.3). The user and host settings for MySQL work from either server as long as the host is localhost or the same IP or domain name. For instance, Apache/PHP on server1 can access MySQL on server1 and likewise on server2. I am wondering of hosts.allow is set incorrectly (ALL: 192.168.1.*: ALLOW) or if there is another default protection that disallows network MySQL access. In terms of mysql commands, I cannot do the follow mysql command from server2: mysql -hserver1 -umyuser -p I get the error: ERROR 2003: Can't connect to MySQL server on '192.168.1.3' (111) I can do the following from server2: mysql -hserver2 -umyuser -p or mysql -hlocalhost -umyuser -p or mysql -h192.168.1.4 -umyuser -p I hope this makes sense to someone.

Root1
Hey there! Ive recently installed Sarge/Testing. Everything went fine. Love the new installer.. Smth. Autodetected all my hardware on the laptop of mine :) BUT, after some usage i found a file called /1 wich contained something about /etc/emacs and /2 and i dont use emacs. Though in /etc/emacs there was some that could have been installed by devhelp. My question is, has anyone else had this /1 file? was i rooted? is it a known bug? Anyway i had to wipe my drive, so i cant paste the exact containment in the /1 file. can anyone shed some light to me? Best regards /smurfd aka.
