Serial Terminal.
Hi.. I need some help in finding info on 2 related subjects... How do i get linux to forget about the screen and boot into a Serial VT Terminal ? (any preferred terminal?) If at all possible, (all i got from the docs is at the boot: prompt to enter linux console=ttyS0 \ 1)... i'm using an Annex terminal server on a few SUN machines, what i get are 8 or 16 machines which i can connect through one telnet session, and control remotely.. (everything, from memory check onwards ), is it possible to connect an x86 linux box to such a system??

Re: samba vs win98 enabled

In Unix, modification times are stored as the number of seconds that have passed since Midnight, January 1, 1970, GMT (if I remember correctly). But if you were to convert this to a full date, with month, day-of-the-month, year and hour, ls would not have much place to display it, assuming the standard 80-character line width. This is why it is customary for 'ls -l' to use the following heuristic to decide how to display only partial information about the date: (see 'info ls', for example): "For files with a time more than six months old or more than one hour into the future, the timestamp contains the year instead of the time of day." If you want to see the full time, use the "--full-time" paramter to ls (Assuming, of course, GNU ls. This option was *not* available on ATT's Unix). Anyway, because the file you show is not over 6 months in the past (because it says "September 2000"), we can come to the conclusion: it is more than 1 hour in the future. This could mean one of two things: 1. The time on your PC is off by over one hour. 2. Time-zone problems: in this case the file will be 3 hours in the future (check this with the --full-time paramter as I said above). You should check if the timezone configuration on your Windows 98 is different than the one in windows 95 (which you say works correctly), and if it is, copy the timezone configuration from Windows 95. You can also try a) Setting your PC is to "GMT" (e.g., "Monrovia" time zone) with the Israeli time. b) Setting your PC to "Israel" time zone, with the Israeli time. and see which one will work correctly.

Re: UPS
Hi I sow that Powercom protocol (Advice compatible) is now supported by NUT. Any one tested it with advice ? I am the current maintainer of the driver. I am using it with Advice Partner/King PR750 model: [10:06:20 /tmp]$ /sbin/upsc localhost host: localhost MFR: PowerCom MODEL: Advice Partner/King PR750 SERIAL: 00131581 UPSIDENT: myups ACFREQ: 49.10 BATTPCT: -1050.3 LOADPCT: 21.7 STATUS: OL UTILITY: 230.5 [10:06:23 /tmp]$ As you can see, it has at least one bug (BATTPCT: -1050.3) since the protocol is not fully known. However I believe it is useful and that it is working correctly in case of a power failure. The indications that I am getting for this belief on my system are positive. If you are interested in Advice products then mentioning Linux and also the need to reveal their protocols is desirable. Any one have any experience with their model ULT-3000 ? This looks like a 3KVA UPS and therefore an online technology. Advice site has a link from their online UPS page to http://www.imv.com, but I did not find the specific model you were reffering to. In any case I do not have any expreince with this model. Are you hoping to use this UPS with the NUT or did you mentioned them together without any implied implications? BTW: If you are interested in a driver model for the NUT for other UPSs and you are able to get their protocol then I might write a driver for them.

This usually happens with addresses outside Israel (www.askjeeves.com, www.dogpile.com), but it also happens to local address. For instance, at the moment I'm writing this, I can't reach WALLA with Netscape although I can reach it with PING and TRACEROUTE. I'm not sure, but I think this started only since I connected to the ADSL service. Could there be a problem here - maybe with PPTP?

Re: Serial Terminal.
Hi Benji Selano wrote: Hi.. I need some help in finding info on 2 related subjects... How do i get linux to forget about the screen and boot into a Serial VT Terminal ? (any preferred terminal?) Actually, I have in front of me 2 PCs, connected by a NULL modem cable (see http://www.hardwarebook.net on how to make one - I made mine). One of them is a 486 with no monitor, keyboard or mouse - I control it from it's big brother. What you'll need: 1. As some people said, make Linux use the serial console. Look at /usr/src/linux (or where you keep your kernel sources) under Documentation/serial-console.txt on how to do that. Basicly - add something like console=ttyS1,38400 console=tty0 to your kernel command line to make it use both for startup output. 2. run getty on it - add to /etc/inittab a line like this: T1:2345:respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyS1 38400 vt100 make sure your getty knows how to handle serial lines. On my machine (a Debian 1.3 upgraded to 2.0, then parts of 2.1 and parts of 2.2, which explains why I have this:) I have 3 versions - mingetty, which doesn't, getty, which does, and mgetty, for modem (which I don't use). I know of gettyps (also for modem - quite powerful) and fbgetty (for framebuffer). You might want also to add to /etc/securetty a line with your serial device. 3. I don't know if it is very helpful, but I symlink /dev/console to ttyS1. I know some programs write directly there, so you'll see the output. 4. Lilo: add a line like serial = 1,38400n8 to be able to control lilo (/usr/doc/lilo/Manual.txt.gz or something for doc). Use a recent version - one of the latest versions sets the line on at boot, so you can also type (and not only see). Maybe some COMM programs turn it on from the other side, but I used minicom and it doesn't. 5. Very recently, I added to it's net card a boot ROM someone burnt for me, with support for net boot (naturally), and with ability to control it from a serial console. This way, I can boot from the net even if the disk doesn't work (and I did have problems with it). I don't know how easy it is to burn an EPROM if you don't have useful friends, but if you can, you can get the software from http://etherboot.sourceforge.net/ Actually, it can also boot from floppy, so that can be useful even without an EPROM burner. Also, http://etherboot.sourceforge.net/FlashCard.tar.gz has instructions on how to make a flash card. Havn't tried that :-( 6. Last (don't flame me on this!), you can add to DOS, at autoexec.bat, lines like mode com2:9600,N,8,1 ctty com2 and you'll get a 'C:\' prompt if you select that from lilo. Of course, most things won't work (fdisk, edit, ...) but simple copies, formats, loadlin, etc., will work. and at least OpenDOS (what I have) can't use more than 9600. 7. Not operational yet, but you might be interested in http://freebios.sourceforge.net/ http://www.freiburg.linux.de/openbios/ which will probably support serial consoles when they mature, and http://www.acl.lanl.gov/linuxbios/ that puts linux as the bios - and from their site seems quite working already. Havn't tried any of them (yet?). If at all possible, (all i got from the docs is at the boot: prompt to enter linux console=ttyS0 \ 1)... i'm using an Annex terminal server on a few SUN machines, what i get are 8 or 16 machines which i can connect through one telnet session, and control remotely.. (everything, from memory check onwards ), is it possible to connect an x86 linux box to such a system??

Heym, It's a linux mailing list, and the question was referred to linux, The guy is obviously new to linux and is still used to calling a shell script "Batch file".

I understood that question was about DOS ("batch file") commands, not for Unix system calls!! 'man' would be completely irellevant to answer a DOS question, and the fact there's a "pause" system call in Unix (which I'm very well aware of, thank you very much) is completely irrelevant.
