Q: Using GNU Autoconf/Automake with proprietary software projects
As you may well know, GNU Autoconf and Automake are distributed under the GPL, which means that all the autoconf m4 macros and Bournme shell source code is also GPLed. At least from what I could see by examining the files. So, the question is whether it is legally possible to use autoconf for properiatary software, provided one does not one to expose his build tree. I have seen autoconf used by a properiatary product (MySQL before it was GPLed), but in that case it was a sourceware product, which was distributed with its source. I don't know what was the license of the source files that could see the autoconf code, but since the source code was available, it did not matter much to make them under a very open-source license. Naturally, autoconf can compile proprietary code because make and the shell only invoke the compiler on the source code and do not link against it. However, if I write a configure.in script - must it be distributed under a GPL compatible license? I noticed that some of the files that were generated in one of my own projects (whose license is compatible with the GPL) carried a this is free software header. They did not say that they were distributed under the GNU General Public License, but they did not say otherwise either. So, can anybody knowledgable in the intricates of the GPL and autoconf, enlighten me?

Win2K allows you, if you're the client, to ask the server to use IPSec, yet fall back to not using it if it refuses.

On the receiving side (server application), it's not as flexible, allowing you to either use, or not use IPSec, but not suggest to the client, or use, yet fall back to not using it if the client doesn't know what IPsec is.

RE: Linux mail relay + MS Exchange
How is that more secure? This is more secure, because you don't need to allow any connection from DMZ to your LAN. If you forward all the mail from DMZ to your LAN by SMTP, you have to allow incoming SMTP connection from Mail Relay to Exchange that recides in LAN, which is potentialy more dangerous than alowing only POP3 from LAN to Linux Mail Relay.. Doesn't this mean that you have to keep a users list on the DMZ server? No. I keep a single account in Linux, which recieves all the mail for domain, and Popbeamer ( http://www.dataenter.co.at/products/popbeamer.htm , 129$) or similar Windows product can routes them to my Exchange users using POP3. Plus it is added complication, which does not necessarily mean that it is good. I also believe that SMTP has some mechanism for pulling queued messages. Probably not MTA of Exchange.

(That's not to mention that every application developer has to implement it, which is not very far from writing per-application hardware device drivers). To my understanding, two TCP/IP applications (server and client) wanting to communicate would neither need to *implement* nor *configure* encryption (other than ask for it). They would just get this facility out-of-the-box from their OS's socket mecnanism (whatever the OS would be), as part of the TCP/IP envelope. And in a better world, all major OS's would support these envelopes, and the initial key-switching routines that would be required to make them work. I also understood such a feature would be available in stock IPv6 and IPSec-enabled IPv4 implementations. The whole idea of course being, if you're the sw developer of a TCP/IP application, You don't HAVE to use it, but if you need it, it's there for you and you don't need to reinvent the wheel. You seem to suggest that all IPSec is - is just yet-another pre-configuration-needed (other than installing a socket that supports it, of course) tunneling method between two points, ( both of which you need to have superuser access over) of which we seem to have more than enough at the moment - Cisco's Gre-over-IP, MS-VPN, Checkpoint's VPN, The linux kernel IP Tunnel (some of these are probbably the same, I'm not intimately acquainted with them all...) and other FW vendors probbably have another proprietary protocol or two up their sleeves.

Re: Q: Using GNU Autoconf/Automake with proprietary software projects
As written in the autoconf automake manuals they doesnt' require any special licence to be used they only encourage you to use GPL in general GPL programs doesn't automaticly GPL the files they make Ely Levy System group Hebrew University Jerusalem Israel On Sun, 20 May 2001, Shlomi Fish wrote: As you may well know, GNU Autoconf and Automake are distributed under the GPL, which means that all the autoconf m4 macros and Bournme shell source code is also GPLed. At least from what I could see by examining the files. So, the question is whether it is legally possible to use autoconf for properiatary software, provided one does not one to expose his build tree. I have seen autoconf used by a properiatary product (MySQL before it was GPLed), but in that case it was a sourceware product, which was distributed with its source. I don't know what was the license of the source files that could see the autoconf code, but since the source code was available, it did not matter much to make them under a very open-source license. Naturally, autoconf can compile proprietary code because make and the shell only invoke the compiler on the source code and do not link against it. However, if I write a configure.in script - must it be distributed under a GPL compatible license? I noticed that some of the files that were generated in one of my own projects (whose license is compatible with the GPL) carried a this is free software header. They did not say that they were distributed under the GNU General Public License, but they did not say otherwise either.

Why would user-level processes care about scheduling intricacies in the kernel? How is fork implemented in other Unix variants -- is it done the slow way in all of them? The change was for the parent to give its child all of what remained of its timeslice immediately after creating it. This way, when the scheduler gets called as the syscall exits, it figures out that the child ought to run before the parent gets the fork() return value. The problem is that although no userspace should make assumptions about scheduling, the scheduler itself is really a delicate system and has to make lots of its own assumptions about userspace behaviour and about its own. If you have a lot of forks running, you've got a lot of worth of timeslices being handed around and concentrated in the hands of children, and that is a skew wasn't considered in the scheduler's original design. IIRC neither FreeBSD nor OpenBSD do these child gifts. It's not necessarily the slow way, it just has advanteges in fork/exec situations. Anyhow, from the reactions to the idea I guess it may be pretty novel in Unix in general -- otherwise someone would HAVE to mention that FooOS already does this with considerable performance advanteges, and Linus would respond that FooOS is a piece of crap he wouldn't touch with a ten foot pole, and someone else would point out that the Foo approach is much more scalable, which is why it's preferred to Linux in all the serious companies HE knows, and we'd end up with the usual flamewar, not unlike the ones kuro5hin.org gets every time someone mentions that some story was already posted on Slashdot six weeks ago. In any case, KT says one proposed solution was to give the child only two thirds of the parnet's remaining timeslice, or something. I wonder why they don't simply force a context switch to the child just after it's created instead of messing around with priorities...

Actually it's quite easy to do if you combine netfilter and the policy routing features of Linux. I don't know if the example below will solve the specific ipsec problem you guys are talking about, but it shows how to do routing decisions based on the destination port.

Looking for a Debian Maintainer for Freecell Solver
I am the main programmer of Freecell Solver, which is a library and an executable for automatic solving of boards of Freecell and similar Solitaire variants. Freecell Solver is already used by KDE's Solitaire suite - kpat - and it is expected that it will be used by PySol and by GNOME's AisleRiot as well. Thus, I decided to make it into a package that will be used by all of those Freecell implementations. Freecell Solver now has an Autoconf/Automake/libtool-based building process that generates a shared library, a static library, and an executable that links against the shared library. I have already written an RPM SPEC for it (partially in thanks to Tzafrir Cohen's lecture), and installing it by rpm seems to work fine. However, I would also like to have a Debian package it. Now, since I don't use Debian regularily nor its package system, I would like to have someone who does, so he can maintain it for me. Thus, if anyone of you wishes to be one, or can forward this message to a global Debian mailing-list, I would be grateful to you. What the maintainer should have (in that order): 1. Familiarity with how to make a Debian package or a willingless to learn it. 2. Familiarity with RPM SPECS. I maintain the RedHat package, and he could build the Debian based on its SPEC. 3. Familiarity with Freecell and similar games, and with Freecell Solver in particular. (I believe he will need to test it to make sure everything is fine). If anyone is willing to take the job, he should contact me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] References: http://vipe.technion.ac.il/~shlomif/freecell-solver/ - The Freecell Solver Homepage http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fc-solve-discuss/ - The Freecell Solver mailing-list http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fc-solve-discuss/message/72 - A message sent to it discussing this issue.
