Re: NTP Question.
As far as I remeber, the recommended NTP setup is to have one machine sync with several servers on the internet, and have all other machines on the local network sync with that machine. This does have some redundancy problems (i.e. - little redundancy), but as NTP learns the drift and adjusts accordingly, I don't think that is a major issue. Shachar Shaul Karl wrote: Hi... How can i setup a Linux RH 6.2 box to sync time with a Solaris 2.6 box. if not possible... then with another linux.. (the Solaris is currently syncing with other Solarises.) As you have already hinted, you can set some machine, be it Solaris or Linux to be an ntp server and then have the other machines as its ntp clients. I do not know how easy this setting is, especially setting the server. Yet there is a great deal of documentation for the ntp package. Assuming that each machine has an Internet connectivity, an easier solution might be to have all the machines as client for some accurate ntp server on the net. Any other solutions?

Fialckove OR wrote: i need to work with cvs how do i get the list of files that in the server? how do i upload file? how di i replace file? It's very dependent on how the CVS is setup. Using pserver? using rsh? local copy? The general theme is: "cvs checkout module_name" will grab from the server the module (=top level directory) you want. "cvs add filename; cvs commit" will upload a file. change a file and then "cvs commit" will update (replace) a file. For all these commands to work you need to have a CVSROOT enviorment variable defined and you need to be logged in (I assume you're using pserver setup) type: "export CVSROOT=":pserver:username@servername:/path/to/cvsroot" to define the CVSROOT and then "cvs login" and enter you're passwod when requested.

(I presue that by TTF you mean unicode.) But in an erlier post you siad that the browser will be able to use iso-8859-8 (iso8 for short) fonts (as opposed to the other components. The browser works with latin8 fonts. As a matter of fact, I think (haven't tested myself), that even the hebrew translations will work with 8859-8 fonts if you use Qt-2.2.1. Is there any unicode font included in XFree4, which includes Hebrew glyphs? Be it un ugly fixed font, It still much easier to read than gibrish. There is the so called ucs font, which includes (rather ugly) hebrew glyphs. Another useable font is the cyberbit one. Just search for them on google. If you have an hebrew windows around, you can just use the fonts that come with hebrew windows. The arial, tahoma and courier fonts all look rather nice in hebrew. For example, mozilla's default config for X is to use the "fixed" font for the iso8 codepage, because one such font comes with XFree (I believe it comes from X11). So Heberw text in mozilla looks ugly until you change that (it was a bit difficult with M16, with happened to crash at that point :( ), but you could read Hebrew sites even with standard fonts. Should (should because I never really tested it ;-) work with konqueror too. * If you want to use the hebrew menus - you'll need to replace the fonts.dir which redhat (if you use redhat) creates and create another one fonts.dir and fonts.alias with Tzafrir's script (Tzafrir? could u republish the URL please?

Don't forget to remove the directory from with the chkfontpath and adding it again - and restarting the xfs (stop and start - restart doesn't seem to work) For which distros is chkfontpath availble? I saw it included in the helix-gnome packages for no reason aparent to me. I know it originally comes with RH 6.x and above (and with Mandrake 6.x and above). Did XFree 4 adopt anything similar? If not, what's the standard way for adding a fonts dir to the fonts path? Does debian has any program to manipulate the font path for the X server? Does Caldera? SuSE? 'xset +fp path' ? * Pages like walla will look "" if you don't select from the encoding the ISO-8859-8-i or the CP1255 encoding. For visual pages - select the ISO-8859-8 (like Haaretz, IOL, Tapuz, Internet Zahav etc..) off topic Have a look at Haaretz and IOL's HTML pages. They mark their HTML pages as: meta charset="visual" Instead of using what defined in the HTML standard: meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-8" Actually I added a workaround for that once. Hmmm... did a short test, and the charset="visual" still seems to work.

I will commit changes to CVS soon after I clean up my current code. Plex86 can actually run guest code in 3 modes now: 1) Normal mode. This is SBE (scan-before-execute) controlled. Most code is run natively, some instructions are virtualized and thus emulated. 2) Emulation mode. This emulates code in a loop much like bochs, only everything happens in the monitor space as in 1). This is good for testing the emulation code in plex86. And for cosimulation with bochs. 3) Breakpoint mode. This is like 1), only the TF is set so that only one instruction will be run. This is useful for testing 1) but with very fine-grained control of execution, and is very useful for cosimulation with bochs. I believe all 3 modes can boot Linux. The enclosed graphic is from 1). The other modes seem to work, but I bailed early on execution because I was impatient. :^) -Kevin [image/gif is not supported, skipping...] - End of forwarded message from Kevin Lawton - = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
problem with getfh nfs
Hi friends, I get from time to time an error from my NFS server about getfh and nobody can mount anything. The server is quite heavily used and I was wondering wether it could be that the nfsd runs out of file handles ? Where in the kernel can I change the amount of file handles a process can get ? (Btw, samba also always complains about not enough file handles ...). Also, what can I do to get rid of stale NFS handles ? I mean besides rebooting the machine (which is not a Linux-style solution).
