Possible attack via Net/Internet under 2.4.20 No, that problem is in versions *before* 2.4.20. See for example http://www.sfu.ca/~siegert/linux-security/msg00154.html There is a serious filesystem bug in 2.4.20 but it only affects ext3 filesystems and there is a very easy patch to fix it in the message above. In any case I'd recommend using a more stable filesystem such as ext2 until things settle down. 73, Ged. --- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.

Hi there, Sorry for the delay - had to travel. On Mon, 11 Aug 2003, Hajo C Jeske wrote: tried a diff - but too many options are set to other groups Maybe there's some difference which matters. Why don't you take the .config you had working with 2.4.20 and put it in a 2.4.21 kernel source tree and run 'make xconfig'? Don't change anything, just save the .config, then compare them. so let me ask in another way : which modules are needed to read a usb-card-reader under 2.4.21? I guess vfat fat usb-storage usb-uhci usbcore sd_mod scsi_mod should do it I'd think that would do it, but I'ds always load sr_mod too. Is perhaps anything split for USB under 2.4.21 into several pieces? Don't know. Like I said, I've given up with 2.4.x - I think a lot of the problems are hardware dependent. It worked fine under 2.4.19 and 2.4.20 and refuses under 2.4.21 I had similar strange things happening. I would continue to use 2.4.20 - but they say there is a severe bug in it. Which bug?

No, drop it in, and run make oldconfig that will prompt you for any changes, and clean up any things that are no longer present. thanks, greg k-h --- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
