Re: SSH2 on slink?

I run slink on a 486dx/2 home box with 12 megs of RAM (yep, there are some archaic computers :) I tried to run SSH2, but generating host key was the main problem - the process of generating freezed each time I had run it. But that was probably a hardware problem (anyone got any ideas about it? lack of RAM? lack of processor speed?) I also need to know if installing this package disables SSH1 that we currently have running on the web server SSH2 has been rewritten from scratch, according to its authors. Of course, it disables SSH1, but it is 100% compatible with SSH1, so that SSH1 users should be able to log into machine running SSHD2, and vice versa - SSH2 users into SSHD1. I haven't tested it (due to the problem I wrote about) but information I gave you comes from SSH2 package. Pawel Melyan Mazur [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ #8096952
Re: How do I connect to BTInternet in the UK? They use MS-CHAP

I have been looking at the ppp docs and the advice there is to compile ppp with ma-chap support. I have never compiled an essential app like ppp before - I am concerned about dependencies etc. - if I downloaded the tar.gz source, compiled and installed it surely all sorts of dependencies on my system would be broken? Debian 2.1r2 (slink) (info taken from /var/lib/dpkg/available) Package: ppp Version: 2.3.5-2 Depends: libc6, netbase Suggests: ppp-pam Package:depends on: xispppp (=2.2.0f) wvdial ppp (=2.3.0) pppconfig ppp (=2.3) pptp-linux ppp ppp-pam ppp (=2.3.5-2) pppupd ppp masqdialer ppp (=2.3) diald ppp ( 2.2) These are for Debian 2.1. So, if you recompile ppp 2.3.5-2 on slink, it won't break any dependencies, I guess - I haven't recompiled it. I have no idea what ppp version and what packages that depends on it are in Debian 2.2 (potato) - you have to ask potato users :) Pawel Melyan Mazur [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ #8096952

Believe it or not, I simply ram pppconfig and opted for PAP and Debian configured everything for me. I was about to tell you about configuring ppp connection with pppconfig but I assumed that you had known about it. :) So, I have written quite a nice letter about dependencies :) - Pawel Melyan Mazur [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ #8096952
Re: Where to get pine package ?

Pine .deb package could be downloaded from ftp.debian.org or its national mirror (ftp.xx.debian.org, where xx stands for country code) Newest version should be located in potato dist directory, I guess. Pine tarball is at sunsite.unc.edu/pub/unix/mal/pine AFAIR. Pawel Mazur (Melyan) [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ #8096952

AFAIR there is some project called Debian logo but I'm not sure about it. Check www.debian.org.

smail doesn't read ~/.forward file
Hi, I am using smail on my debian slink box with 2.2.10 kernel. I set up my ~/.forward file in order to sort my mail through procmail (|/usr/bin/procmail) but it didn't work. Trying various .forward files, I figured out that this file is not read at all. My /etc/smail/config includes a line corresponding to the directors file (director_file=directors) and /etc/smail/directors contains dotforward: driver=forwardfile, owner=$user, nobody, sender_okay; file=~/.forward, checkowner, owners=root, modemask=002, caution=0-10:uucp:daemon, unsecure=0-99:~ftp:~uucp:/tmp:/var/tmp, My ~/.forward file is chmoded 600 and owned by me (melyan) and my group (melyan). I tried commenting line 'caution=0-10...' due to the UID procmail runs with (root) but it didn't work also. What could be wrong with my configuration ? I would be grateful for your help.
