ppp y pppconfig

1998-12-11 Thread Horacio M.G.
Hola, hace unos días que vengo intentando cambiar a retenet (iddeo), ya que mi proveedor dejó de funcionar con infovía. Lo que hice fue borrar los ficheros (scripts) que creé anteriormente con pppconfig y ejecutar pppconfig de nuevo. Al ejecutar pon retenet, el ppp.log me aparece siempre

Hi there, how can I make a key combo work? In etc/inittab I get the following line: # What to do when CTRL-ALT-DEL is pressed. ca:12345:ctrlaltdel:/sbin/shutdown -t1 -a -r now which is ok for shutting the system down and rebooting. But, how about shutting down and halting? I tried adding the

Well then you must be using some strange old version of alien and it intrepreted alien -debian as alien -d -e -b -i -a -n, and the -i made it install the package it generated. Current versions of alien will *not* do that: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~alien --to -debian foo Option to is ambiguous

Hi there, I downloaded some archives which I'm trying to install: 1) hj-alpha3_tar.Z (sun's hotjava) which I somehow thought was for linux-i386, and now I realized it would only run on solaris. The problem with it though, is that it's _tar.Z, instead of .tar.Z. So, what I did was just rename

Hi there, I'm a bit confused about the use of tar and/or gzip/gunzip. If I understand it well, a .gz file is just a file compressed with gzip, and I should just use the command gunzip foo.gz to uncompress it; then, a .tar is an archived file, and to untar them, just use tar - whatever. If the
