Re: selinux on bookworm

2024-05-18 Thread Antonio Russo
Everyone,

First of all thanks for the input.  Unfortunately, I have to apologize,
because the actual problem was somewhat silly: selinux appears to be
preventing only *root* login at the tty, which I neglected to mention.
(Also, I neglected to check until now).

Regular user logins are fine.  I'll open an issue.

Best,
Antonio

selinux on bookworm

2024-05-16 Thread Antonio Russo
Hello,

I'm trying to get selinux working on a fresh, gui-free installation of
bookworm.  I'm not trying to run any servers, nor use standard desktop
utilities (yet).  I was hoping this setup would be simple enough that
selinux would be simple to get going.

I'm following [1], which is very straightforward.  The problem I'm
getting is that it seems woefully incomplete.

I cannot even login (com="agetty" is showing up in audit2why).  Now,
obviously, I could follow the instructions and use audit2allow, and go
down the rabbit hole for configuring policies.  But, really?  No one
has fixed the login-at-the-console use case?  I'm sure I must be doing
something wrong.  All I've really done is:

apt-get install selinux-basics selinux-policy-default auditd
selinux-activate

(reboot)

(set enforcing=1 in grub)
update-grub
touch /.autorelabel

(reboot)

And then I cannot log in.  Going back and unsetting enforcing=1 in grub,
and I can use audit2why.  Does anyone who actually uses selinux have any 
hints?

Best,
Antonio

I use it to forward a usb device that I do not trust to a VM. I
use usbauth to protect the host, and I seem to remember having
trouble coercing libvirt to pass a usb device with untrusted
interfaces (or maybe libvirt could only forward usb interfaces?).
So I resorted to usbip, which allowed me to forward a usb device
with no trusted interfaces.

My biggest complaint is that there was no way to have usbip
communicate over a domain socket (or better still, stdin/stdout). 
Then again, it's right there in the name, so can I really complain
about that?

I found forwarding ports to be "clunky", but I'm pretty sure
a lot of other people would have found redirecting unix
pipes to be clunky to them.

To each their own, I suppose.  I otherwise found it delightfully
simple and effective.

If anything gets even a tiny bit hairy, I work in aptitude. That said, I 
disabled
"automatically fix broken packages before installing or removing" under 
"dependency
handling" in options->preferences .  I always review what exactly is being done 
(in
those situations) by looking over what is expressed after hitting "g" and making
sure I'm happy with it.

I (personally) use this.  It's extremely powerful if used correctly, but can be
tricky.  Force a package installation by highlighting something and pressing 
"+".
You can mark things manually installed with "m" (and auto-installed/removable 
with
"M"). If things go south after one action, press "Control-u" to undo that. 
Things
can get tangled here, but you always see what happens before you do it!  You may
have to review suggested resolutions of things ("!" will apply the 
recommendation,
sometimes this does NOTHING, which is a little counter-intuitive at first).  Set
a package to be kept in the original state with ":", and force-hold to it's 
current
version (and pin it there) with "=".  Notice that ":" may still uninstall a 
package
if it is automatically installed and nothing depends on it (anymore)!

I just tried to get apper working, and could not get it to ask for authorization
through polkit.  That might be a trixie bug, a "I locked polkit down too tight"
bug, or a wayland bug.  If you *really* want a gui, I'd at least try apper. I
wasn't willing to try synaptic (GTK dependencies and all).

You might be able to get your Xwayland token to root, but I don't recommend
running root GUI applications.

Antonio

Hello Michael,

python-apt create_pin question

2022-01-14 Thread Antonio Russo


Hello!

I'm trying to use apt_pkg to get a "best candidate" for a package, but with
slightly different constraints than I have set up in /etc/apt/preferences.d.

I am trying to use Policy.create_pin to do so, but cannot seem to get it 
working:

import apt_pkg

apt_pkg.init()
cache = apt_pkg.Cache(progress=None)
policy = apt_pkg.Policy(cache)
#policy.create_pin('origin', '', 'Debian', -1)
policy.create_pin('origin', 'apt', 'Debian', -1)
policy.init_defaults()

print([ (v, policy.get_priority(v)) for v in cache['apt'].version_list ])


All calls to get_priority return 500---not -1, as I am trying to get here.

I must be doing something silly.  I'd appreciate any help.

Antonio

pppoe performance on debian and debian as router / firewall

2021-06-05 Thread Antonio

Hi,

I'm planning to setup a router and firewall based on debian for my home 
lab.


I know there are better (I mean, easier...) choices for this type of 
machine (have tried some of them, currently using pfsense) but I do want 
to find out if I could use debian.


The problem is my ISP uses pppoe for my symmetric 1 gbps connection and 
I know this type of connection requires a quite performant cpu, as it is 
single-threaded and uses only one cpu core. I'm currently using a 
supermicro motherboard with a (four core) N3710 and setting up ipfire, 
pfsense, opnsense or similar to use all my bandwidth is a real pain (if 
even possible...)


I've been looking for reports on pppoe performance in debian on similar 
hardware but have found none (most people seem to be using freebsd-based 
firewalls these days), so my questions are:


Does anyone here have any experience using debian as of router and 
firewall on such hardware as mine using pppoe?


Is there any way debian could use the four cores of my cpu to handle 
pppoe traffic? Or any other way to improve pppoe performance...


And finally, I am planning on using shorewall for the firewall. I have 
been looking at the docs but have found no examples for a 4 nic machine. 
I guess that's possible, isn't it?



Cheers!

As I understand it, this would not have protected against the recent local
privilege escalation bug in sudo.  If you're interested in improving
security, the desire is to reduce the total amount of privileged code on
the machine.

(Though removing people from sudoers obviously helps.)

As a general rule, if there are no depends or recommends (or suggests) on a
package, you should be safe to remove a package you don't directly call. 
(If not, it's a bug.).

You can easily view this with aptitude:

0. Install aptitude and open it up.
1. Find the package: type /^sudo$ 
2. Hit return again to bring up details of the selected package
3. Use the down arrow key to go to "packages which depend on sudo"
4. Hit enter to open up the list of packages.
5. Browse the list to see which packages may be affected.

But, more specifically to your question about sudo, let me argue that, at the
level of paranoia required to be worried about sudo, you should also be
worried about a LOT of other packages.  For instance, if you are worried about
the "opaque" ACLs used in sudoers*, I encourage you to look in
/etc/dbus-1/system.d .  I think there are other places where these kinds of
files live, but I haven't yet gotten around to understanding how to easily
audit these settings.

Similarly, the logic associated with authentication (and message passing)
could easily be more susceptible to buffer overflows than sudo.

But yeah, generically, if you really do not use a piece of software, it's
safer not to have it installed.

adding a second HDD in debian

2020-11-21 Thread Antonio Barragan
Hi
I have a PC with Debian 10 installed (on dev/sda), and working properly.
Now I would like to add to it a second, 150 GB HDD (SATA), taken from
another machine.
It is already partitioned with a combination of ntfs and ext4 partitions,
and I would like to keep it that way, because I want the info stored in it.
I have seen several posts in the web on this subject, but almost all
talk about formating and
repartitioning the second HDD, which I'd rather not do.
How could that be done?
Any clue will be greatly appreciated

Anyway, you can download the packages from snapshot and downgrade them, 
without adding a new source to APT. Install with DPKG and be sure you put them 
on hold so they will never be upgraded again.

You can try to install old package versions from the snapshot archive 
(http://snapshot.debian.org). As the page itself says: 

"The snapshot archive is a wayback machine that allows access to old packages

Run script for each ssh login

2013-11-13 Thread Antonio Paiva
Hi everyone,

I would like to set up an ssh server such that, everytime someone tries to
connect to it, a script will be run to control certain aspects of the
connection. More specifically, I want to check if certain conditions are
met and, if they are not, refuse/abort the connection.

I found that if a /etc/sshrc script exits, it will be run just before the
user's shell or command is invoked. However, how can I write the script
such that if the check fails, the ssh session is aborted? I'm told that if
the script exits due to an error (say, a syntax error), the SSH session
continues normally.

I don't have to use the /etc/sshrc script. If you have an idea of an
alternative approach that would achieve the same goal, please let me know.

Yes, you can always do that... I was talking of something more efficient
and user friendly. For example, in my case, I use Fluxbox and simply put
that command as one of the entries in the main menu. This way takes me two
clicks (or key presses using keyboard shortcuts) to shutdown. Maybe you
know how to add a custom entry to a menu of your desktop environment.

Have you tried using 'shutdown -h -P now' ?

I was having similar issues with some machines not powering down after
shutdown and that solved it for me. In my case, I simply set that as the
exit command for my window manager, and I have no idea how you might go
about doing it in a desktop env.

By the way, if you never assembled a computer, you should take a look at
Carey Holzman videos on youtube. For example,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCohS0guaDE  He's a little long winded for
my taste, but he has videos that walk you through the whole process from
start to finish. Those were the videos I used to guide me through my build.

Re: X crashes

2013-10-19 Thread Antonio Paiva
Ed,

It seems somehow you do not have the kernel modesetting (KMS) module
loading during boot. https://wiki.debian.org/KernelModesetting

After you boot, check if the nouveau module has been loaded into the kernel
space. If not, add it to /etc/modules.

Hope this helps,
Antonio

Re: Advice on new desktop/building?

2013-10-19 Thread Antonio Paiva
Hi Jen,

I also assembled my first desktop quite recently and I'm running Linux in
it. My target specs were significantly higher than yours, but the cost of
all the parts was around $650. If you want, I can give you the listing of
want I built as a guide and you just remove or replace each part with
something that fits your target goal. (Note that I'm living in the US; the
prices and availability in your area may be different.)

Note that an alternative to assembling your own is to buy a barebone or
small-factor PC from Newegg (under "Computer hardware"). These computers
are usually sold without memory and disk, which is good because you can
just add exactly what you want. The downside is that the CPUs are usually
weaker or clocked down in order to fit into the small package and not run
too hot. Another element to consider is that they might only support one
output monitor.

If you are assembling your own, you should decide which parts you will need
and make sure that you have the appropriate connectors between them. Also,
you should look at different places for the best prices on each part. I
ended up buying parts some parts from MicroCenter and some from Newegg.

In order to get the small form factor, you will most likely have to use a
micro ATX or mini ITX motherboard. If you have a MicroCenter close to you,
that's probably the best place to buy the motherboard and CPU. If you buy
it as a bundle, you can get really good deals. I bought the AMD FX6300 with
the ASRock Extreme and payed $170+tax for the bundle. (But, make sure to
double-check all the prices at the register. In my case, the bundle
discount was not applied automatically, for example.) You can get the same
CPU with a micro ATX motherboard for $110+tax, and that's plenty of CPU...
You will also need a case (make sure it supports the size of your
motherboard), disk, memory, and maybe a graphics card (see below) and power
supply. Note that if you buy a small factor case, some already have an
integrated power supply, so check for that.

The downside of the AMD/motherboard configuration I mentioned above is that
you would have to add a graphics card. There are two solutions: you select
a CPU with an integrated GPU, or add a graphics card. The "fusion" CPUs
from AMD have integrated GPUs that are comparable to those of entry-level
graphics cards but they are poorly supported in Linux, so you end up with
basically the same thing as the integrated graphics on an Intel CPU.
Alternatively, you can get basic graphics cards from Newegg for $30. For
example, an Nvidia GeForce 210 costs $30 and has 3 outputs (note that the
graphics card requires a power supply of at least 300W, which may be a
problem with some of small cases). I'm suggesting Nvidia because it
currently has much better driver support in Linux.

Finally, note that although I pointed out AMD CPUs I'm not suggesting that
they are better. I did so because, for the uses that you mentioned, they
are cheaper and should provide more than enough compute power for several
years.

Hope this helps,
Antonio

Thank you Dmitrii.

I did try "vga=ask" but that option is no longer supported by the
debian kernel. On the grub console, I also tried vbeinfo and couldn't
find the 1024x480 mode. And vbetest only worked with 640x480.

Set widescreen resolution in console

2013-10-09 Thread Antonio Paiva
Hi everyone,

I have recently acquired an old Sony Vaio PCG-C1VN (aka, a "PictureBook")
and installed Debian wheezy. The problem is that I can only get the
*console* to run at 640x480 resolution.

The C1VN has a (very wide) native resolution of 1024x480, but using only
640x480 is a serious waste of screen real estate. It works fine in X but,
the for uses I have in mind (playing some music and reading/writing text),
all I need works on the console. Moreover, using X slows down the machine
enough to have a noticeable drag (not unbearable, not very annoying). (Bear
in mind all this has is a Transmeta Crusoe @600MHz ~= Pentium II @400Mhz,
and 112MB of RAM.) I'm using kernel modesetting (KMS) with the radeon
kernel module (graphics card is an ATI Rage Mobility / Mach64). I tried
setting the mode in GRUB via the GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX option, creating my
own framebuffer mode, but either made no difference or I ended up with an
even smaller resolution?!

If you have any ideas or pointers to potential solutions, I would greatly
appreciate the help. Thank you.

Best regards,
Antonio

Graphical app on startup

2012-04-05 Thread Antonio Fernández Pérez
Hi everybody,

I would like to get that a graphical application developed in Java runs on
startup of a Debian machine, if is possible without menu, without login
panel and without system messages. Obviously without update messages.

I would to get a machine that works with this app on startup like as a
information point center. Do you understand me?

I hope your help because I don't know if this is possible to do in Linux
Debian. I know that in Windows is possible but is more expensive than to do
it in Linux (Licenses).

Thank you very much.

Best regards,

Antonio.

Google only returns bad news for that modem, it says is not supported at

But you can still can make some tests, just in case. Open a console and
type:

tail -f | dmesg

Then attach the modem and see if it gets detected and the system assigns
a port to it under "/dev/ttyUSB0" or "/dev/ttyACM0.

But be prepared for the worst, USB modems can be very difficult to
support in linux if the manufacturer did not provide the drivers nor
specifications. In this regard, old serial modems are much better than
USB ones (no drivers needed) ;-(

According to a short google search it looks like this is a 'winmodem'

You don't need to assign different blocks to each NIC, all your network 
needs only one block of addresses. It is, however, a good idea, security 
wise, to keep them apart.

The only thing which is really missing in your setup is firewall. Iptables 
has a dual personality (reflecting the dual stack devices), there is the 
normal iptables and the ip6tables for IPV6. The setup you are using does 
allow you to connect to the IPV6 network out there, but also allows 
connections from "out there" to your computers.

Read: http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/42436

there is a free "certification" for IPV6, which might help to understand 
the basics:
http://ipv6.he.net/
http://ipv6.he.net/certification/

Also be sure to set a firewall for IPv6, remember that IPv6 is independent 
of IPv4 and allows external computers to connect to your systems, even 
behind the "Debian router":
http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/ip6tables-ipv6-firewall-for-linux/
http://www.exp-networks.be/blog/ipv6-firewall/
http://www.debian-administration.org/article/Is_your_firewall_IPv6_aware

This programs for firewall setting in debian may be of help:
http://wiki.debian.org/Firewalls
Shorewall seems to be a good choice.

Ah, good, so, grub correctly detects the kernel and initrd files and loads 
them. The kernel then takes control and starts the initramfs process which 
you are reporting as failing.

This is further down the boot process than any grub or kernel.

Have you tried the:

update-initramfs -u

command to reconstruct the initramfs file used?

Try the `update-initramfs -u` command. It may solve the issue, if that 
doesn't work, contact the initramfs maintainer, or file a bug, that will 
solve the problem.

Good luck.

trd boot parameter, but that is a different area:

I believe there is a mistake, and, that the `HD` should be `NO`. Meaning
that if no variable name is supplied, the value is assigned to the `root` 
variable.

This effectively repeats what the previous command did, IMO.

Well, the root for grub, not the root for the kernel.

Yes, all are correct and I strongly recommend to use the UUID value from the 
blkid command.

Warning: The command blkid needs a `blkid -g` first to clear the stored UUIDs 
in it's cache.

Your problem seems to be that the KERNEL can't find the root
FileSystem, nothing that grub could do to solve it.

That confirms it, it's a kernel problem not finding the correct `root` 
filesystem.
Use blkid UUID on that line.

Once you have booted into this system, `update-grub` should set
this file correctly, grub.cfg will be updated on any kernel change.

Make sure `update-grub` is correctly creating a good grub.cfg before a re-boot.

That's the 'core.img' code for grub, which needs to correctly read
all UUIDs to really perform it's job correctly.

 Hi,

 I am using Debian Sid. After doing the login (by using either KDM or GDM) KDE 
seems to crash, and the only thing I can see is the mouse pointer over a black

 I have looked for some information in the logs but I have not found anything

whether this is important:

"Cannot load /usr/share/apps/kdm/faces/.default.face: No such file or directory"

 What can I do to find out what is happening? (this is frustrating)

also you may add the dest IP or any other relevant factor to reduce noise:

for wget http://www.google.com :
tcp.dstport==80 and ip.addr==74.125.159.1/24

for http://www.livecdlist.com:

Filter udp destination port 53 (DNS) in both the LAN and PPP and compare.

analyze if dns requests are being correctly resolved.


As you are using this commands:
$ wget www.google.com
$ wget www.livecdlist.com
which both work on port 80, filter the destination port 80 and compare.
hint: tcp.dstport==80

Are the lists of packets any different between the lenny and squeeze setups?


If you have no experience with packet analysis, it would be very difficult

--remote-schema 'ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_backup -C %s rdiff-backup

with dash there is no «  ''\''ssh'  »

Also, did you notice the difference between a command on an unquoted variable 
and a quoted one?
+ echo --remote-schema ''\''ssh' -i /root/.ssh/id_backup 
$'-C\302\240%s' 'rdiff-backup --server'\'''
+ echo '--remote-schema '\''ssh -i /root/.ssh/id_backup -C %s 
rdiff-backup --server'\'''

Conclusion: Quoting the variable will solve your problem, as this:
rdiff-backup \
  "$RDSCHM" \
  "$RDRM" \
  "$DEST/"


> the ''\''ssh' is the confusing bit it is seperate out the ssh and the -i.

Yes, on a bash shell, but only while quoting with -x, the actual command does 
the right thing.

Just put « $RDSCHM »  inside quotes as this: « "$RDSCHM" »

It does not really matter which shell it is, when the issue is about correct 
quoting of variables.

missing the initrd file in the kernel package

2009-04-29 Thread Antonio Diaz


  Hi,

  When I compile the kernel the file "initrd" is not created in spite 
of I'm specifying the "--initrd" option in the command line. Exactly, 
the command that I'm using to compile the kernel is:


"make-kpkg --initrd --revision=1:xps.10 kernel_image"

  May be there is a problem with the application that creates the 
initrd file.


  Any suggestions?

Hello, do all the list member one last favor and don't top post.

I had this issue with xinerama. It may depand on the card and driver you are
using (ati and nvidia must be configured using their config tools)

may be your xinerama configuration is for the local user, but I'ld bet it's
because you're using ati or nvidia

else I don't have anything in mind, that could help you.

Do you have an ATI card?  My experience with the linux driver from
ati.amd.com is generally better than xorg out-of-the-box for dual

Hello,

   According to the following posts, it seems to be a bug related to 
the latest kwin package:


http://lists.debian.org/debian-qt-kde/2009/03/msg00139.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-qt-kde/2009/03/msg00259.html

   May be it is useful for othe people who are facing the same problem.

   At the KDE forum said me that likely the latest kwin version wasn't 
compiled with the xinerama option enabled:


"It is possible to disable this extension at compile time and is the 
most likely cause of why you are getting the problem you are facing. 
This protocol is also used when using XRandR to keep backwards 
compatibility."


   Thank you for your comment!

Re: kde, dual monitor, maximize windows to the current monitor

The option "window maximize support" is enabled but it fails.

When I realized that I worked under the root user, I looked at his
options in order to check if there were something different, but his
configuration is exactly the same as my standard user.

I have also found out that it also fails for other standard users (I
did create a test user to check it).

Anyway, thank you for your comment. Any idea?

from LGPL to dual-license?

2009-01-29 Thread Antonio Diaz Sanchez

   Sorry, this is an off-topic question but I'm sure that Debian people know a 
lot about this issue.

   I know some people who is trying to license their software as dual-license. 
Their intention is to be also able to release a propietary version of their 
software. However, I know that they have used a lot of LGPL software to build 
it, so in my opinion it is not possible. Do they have the right to release the 
software as dual-license? In my opinion to release a software as dual-license 
either all the code has to be developed by you or the license has to be 
compatible. Is this right?

   Thank you

Netbeans and Eclipse are really great, specialized IDEs for these kind

intelligentsense, subversion integration (amazing!!),  great editor,

dhclient: no offers

2008-08-06 Thread Antonio Diaz


  Hi,

  My laptop is a Dell XPS M1530. Its network card is a "Marvell Yukon 
88E8040". According to the "lspci" command, the system seems to be 
detecting successfully the network card:


[
Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88E8040 PCI-E Fast 
Ethernet Controller (rev 12)"

]

  In accordance with other people who also have the same laptop, the 
driver which should be used is the "sky2" (SysKonnect Yukon2). I 
compiled it into the kernel and the "dmesg" command shows that it's 
being loaded successfully.


[
sky2 eth0: addr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
sky2 eth0: enabling interface
sky2 eth0: Link is up at 10 Mbps, half duplex, flow control none
]

  May be I should test the driver "sk98lin". It's the driver which you 
can download from the Marvell homepage. At this point I've a little 
question: Should I compile again the kernel and set the sky2 as a module 
in order to be able to use the "sk98lin" driver?


In any case, this morning my network card got an IP from the DHCP 
server. The first time it got the IP immediately. Later I had to turn 
off my computer and when I switched it on again I had to attempt it 
three times (run three times the dhclient). I really don't know whether 
it's normal or not. Maybe it's has to do with the broadcast packages. I 
can't remember well but I read a log message which requested me to read 
about it.


  Anyhow, *a lot of thanks* for your replies.

Hi,

Re: dhclient & booting

2008-08-04 Thread Antonio Diaz

Ok, I should have written a bit more. Maybe these points are helpful:

* I've also installed Windows XP on my laptop and it works fine so I'm 
sure that the problem has to do with my linux configuration.


* I've tested different kernel versions (three of them).

* "dmesg" seems to say that the interface eth0 is fine. The module that 
the network card needs to work is being loaded successfully (sky2)


* However, the wireless interface (wlan0) works fine. It gets an IP 
from the same DHCP server without any problem.


* The "messages" file writes the following message whenever I attempt 
to get an IP: "no IPv6 routers present". I've been reading about it but 
people are not agree with this point. Some of them think that it is not 
important at all and others think that it's necessary to disable IPv6. 
For example:


http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-222010.html

  The most strange point is that sometimes the network card gets an IP 
without problem... but very few times.


  Thank you for your reply. I'd appreciate any help.

Could be a problem with the network adapter or the module. Try a different

Try a different kernel?

Try a different dhcp client?

Have you any iptables rules set that could interfere?

Did you check dmesg?

Perhaps try to change the interface's mac address?
  

To configure the "eth0" interface I write the following lines in the
"interfaces" file:

auto eth0

This seems fine. Is there anything else in the file that could interfere?

Link failover with ping

2008-07-01 Thread Antonio Lobato

Hello all!

I`m finding docs/examples about this subject. After some googling,
I only found basic scripts. For me (in some networks that I work),
these simple scripts available only works with excellent links
(dedicated ones).

The load balancing part of the problem already was solved with
LARTC howto. DGD patch for linux was not a good experience
because it only detects the first hop fail and 90% of these fails
happens after the first hop (e.g. local router as gateway
connected to remote ISP).

I searched for some linux distro with this feature (good failover)
bult-in, but didnt found something interesting.

I would appreciate pointers to docs, distros (for use as starting
point), examples or even academic research about  the topic.


thank you,

Tom Lobato

Thanks for your fast reply.

Yes, the key has Alt_Gr printed on it. I assumed that the Alt_Gr key should 
work as an Alt key in
conjuction with non-symbol keys (Alt_Gr-x etc.). Thanks to your link now I know 
that it has
nothing in common with the other Alt keys. I redefined it using xmodmap, I 
simply wanted to know
if something was wrong with the Debian keymap. Now I understand the issue.

> ? Emacs shouldn't care about which Alt key you use

The problem is that, to type Meta-x, Meta-v, etc. with the keymap provided by 
Debian, I have to
use the left Alt key. Thus, I have to press 2 keys simultaneously with the left 
hand, that is not
easy nor fast.

Cheers,

Antonio Regidor García

Meta-R key doesn't exist

2007-07-11 Thread Antonio Regidor García
Hi,

I don't know if this is a bug, and where to report it, so I tried this list. 
The problem is that
my keyboard map has a Meta-L (or Alt-L, or Alt-Left) key, but not a 
corresponding Meta-R key, both
in X and the console, using Spanish or English keymaps. The key that should be 
the Meta-R key is
mapped in X (according to xkbprint) to "ISO-Level3-Shift". I don't know which 
key it is mapped to
in the console, but certainly it is not Meta-R.

Is this a feature of Debian or a bug? It happens with other keyboards?

This problem makes Emacs very difficult to use without remapping the keyboard.

Best whishes,

Antonio Regidor García

Wow!!! Best regards Hendrik!!!
Most probabily the provider's router is buggy but it solved
the problem.
The solution was that reported by article pointed by you:

In the mean time, anybody running a current kernel who is
having trouble connecting to a needed site can work around
the problem with a command like:

echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_default_win_scale 

or by adding a line like:

net.ipv4.tcp_default_win_scale = 0

to /etc/sysctl.conf.

Kernel 2.6.17 e 2.6.18 K7 network problem

2007-01-02 Thread Antonio Laterza
Hi all, I want to ask if somebody experienced the same
problem I have with etch installation and in general with
kernel 2.6.17 and 2.6.18 on AMD K7. The computer where I
tried has 2 network cards, I connect only 1 card and it
receives the IP address.

I experienced the problem installing etch using a
businesscard, using knoppix 5.0.1 (use kernel 2.6.17) and
upgrading from sarge (kernel 2.6.8) to etch (kernel
2.6.18). 
In the last case, with the same installation if I chose
kernel 2.6.8 I have no network problem (but X does not work
:( ). If I choose the kernel 2.6.18 X is OK but I am not
able to reache many sites. I can navigate very few sites
example: www.google.com and www.mozilla.org. Using ethereal
seems that the HTTP request go out (i.e. GET / ) but
the ACK packet does not ask the next packet number  in
other words seems that the GET request never reched the
final site.

I tryied to reduce the MTU but was unsuccesful. 
Last details: the network card is the Realtek

DansGuardian - Error connecting via IPC socket to log

2006-12-19 Thread Antonio Felipe

Hello there!

I have a server running DansGuardian 2.9.7.0 on Debian Sarge with the 
kernel 2.6.8.

After sometime running without trouble, he starts to send this message:

Dec 19 06:30:01 preventis dansguardian: Error connecting via IPC socket 
to log
Dec 19 06:30:01 preventis dansguardian: Error connecting via IPC socket 
to log

to log
Dec 19 06:33:02 preventis dansguardian: Error connecting via IPC socket 
to log
Dec 19 06:33:02 preventis dansguardian: Error connecting via IPC socket 
to log


To stop this error I do an

/etc/init.d/

dansguardian reload

and he stop this error. But after a while he start the error again.
With this error DansGuardian doesn't log anything.
I have others servers with the same configuration and they don't have
this error.
I really need to fix it. Can anyone help me?

Re: Cyber Cafe Manager

I've forgot to tell this on my first e-mail that I've tested zeiberbude.
It's awful and discontinued!
Looking in the others that I've found, with your help,
Openkiosk looks the best choice.
Good luck for us all!

Oh, I am running etch, so with the search you made I only get

zbdesk and zeiberdude are only in the stable release, maybe Antonio

I think Antonio means the software to manage the computer clients in a
cafe internet. There is a machine which works as a server too, where
you can know which machines are free, the time that people has spent
using the computer, etc.

As a Debian package, I havent found anything, but in SourceForge there
are some solutions for that, for example:

http://dharma-netcafe.sourceforge.net/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cybera

and others.

Hope you find this solutions useful.
