installed. check out the tool that automatically recognizes your hardware and all you have to do is press install for any piece of hardware - it configured my soundcard. :o) the aliens theme for Wow! and I thought the "getting rid of mount" is utopia! Linux detects your hardware and installs it correctly? It was possible for years now actually (all a distribution has to do is come with every module compiled, detect hardware and update rc.local accordingly), but still - what a step toward the desktop!

[OT] Sorry and EndOfThread (was Re: Supermount)
Hi
I am terribly sorry. I obviously shouldn't reply to mail at 02:00 AM,
maybe not even read it.
For some unknown reason, I got the impression that ira said that
the Makefile has mandrake's copyright, something which he didn't
say at all (he said they put their copyright on a perl script
named supermount, which they obviously wrote since the author
didn't).
I have nothing against mandrake, Ira - I never even saw it. I am
sure they are fine people.
Also, as I said, sorry for the old-buggy-notY2Kcompliant elm
I am using, but that is what math.tau has and what I am used to
(they are installing a newer one).
I will try not to post in the next few weeks, as I say too much
nonsence, and also elm is broken.
Still, if the story about the internal format of rpm helped anyone,
I am happy.

The entire patch doesn't mention mandrake. They are only mentioned
on the author's site (sent previously) as bug reporters.
which is fine, they didn't write the patch themselves, and they are
honoring the author according to the spirit of the GPL (and any patches
to the kernel ARE afterall, GPL)
However, for me - they lost
their first chance to make a first good impression. Why the @#$%
they had to put their copyright there? it's a trivial file! couldn't
they leave it alone, or put the author's copyright there (obviously,
that would be Linus - it was copied from a makefile of his, then
Stephen Tweedie, probably then Alexis Mikhailov)?
where did they put their copyright? the bit you showed only reffered to
the authors. I looked at other files in the directory, it's nice and
consistant, they mention the right people. I find it VERY useful to know
who wrote the code I'm looking at, in case I want to ask him a
question. see here, what's wrong with this?

It means that tar could not read one of the files because of permission
denied or the file disappeared or the file was not readable because of a
bad sector. Use --ignore-failed-read if you need a zero return code.

The NT clients are putty and TTermPro. Yes. ssh1 and ssh2 are incompatible. SecureCRT and DataFellow's F-Secure both support SSH2 in their latest versions, but both are time-limited trials. The change in ssh2, as I know, is that packets are signed, making it impossible for a man-in-the-middle insertion of packets, but that was also fixed in ssh1 after CORE-SDI found it. So, just go and download OpenSSH. It's more secure, and both TeraTerm+SSH and Putty work great with it. I have generated the keys on both Linux and NT. How are these keys to be used to for encrypted tunnel? Upon installing ssh, a private/public key pair is generated. The private key is essential for encryption: for decrypting, what was encrypted with the public key (which is sent to the user each time he/she connects). Your private/public key pair is yours personally. You can append the public key to the .ssh/authorized_keys file in your home directory (on Un*x) and then you could use the matching private key to connect to your account without a password. Read man ssh(1) for more details on authorized_keys. Thanks for replying. I have downloaded the OpenSSH and OpenSSL (prerequisite for OpenSSH). The installation went fine. I have several questions about the public/private keys. When I used the ssh-keygen, the keys were generated. I am assuming you use one of these keys with the ssh client. The clients I will use are on Win95/NT and OS/2. Do I copy these keys and put them in the ssh clients directory? When I tried to start sshd, I got the following message. error: Could not load host key: /usr/local/etc/ssh_host_key: No such file or directory I did not see any info about ssh_host_key in the ssh or sshd man pages.
