its a matter of ssh and its not working for me

2004-12-28 Thread Kent Andersen
well sorta not working
I have some automatic login stuff I want to do with rsync,etc.. one machine 
works the others (recent installs) do not

heres the rundown
I have the public keys placed in remote machines under the correct user 
account .ssh/ etc.. both sshd_conf files are identical (machines A,B).

machine A will automatically ssh login (without password) and rysync doesnt 
ask for password either
machine B requires me to login with password before the new command will 
work (ie rsync) but ssh session will not require password.

I have been trying to figure out why this is happening if anyone can clue me 
in I would be forever in debt. I have been working on trying to solve this 
mystery for about a week now. ARRGH!

Remote text printer and standard input woes and well the **** thing dont work... sorta,

2004-06-29 Thread Kent Andersen
I have a tricky problem and dont really know where to go with it. I have a
HP direct Jet lan printer, now I have printcap setup so that it thinks its a
text printer. heres a clip of what printcap says.

Printcap file :

lp|hp:\
:lp=:\
:rp=text:\
:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp:\
:rm=10.10.1.3:\
:mx#0:\
:sh:

when I print a text file using lpr. everything works, IE it prints. when
using some application to print which uses standard input, it just sits in
que and does nothing..

lpq command readout.

bill:lpq
bill: Warning: no daemon present
Rank   Owner  Job  Files Total Size
1stsomeuser   12   (standard input) 2782
bytes

JetDirect lpd: no jobs queued on this port


so, basically is there some way to make it print using standard input? as a
footnote I tried using :rp=raw: and it would print standard input, but it
did the staircase problem..

I never thought I would have such a difficult time making linux print!
arrgh!

Thanks

Kent

Re: Remote text printer and standard input woes and well the **** thing dont work... sorta,

2004-06-29 Thread Kent Andersen
10.10.1.3 is the printer. the HP has an ethernet card in it, and yes it does
print everything sorta...
text files dont work from the command prompt now, but thats okay this box
must print standard input files anyway.. so its not a big deal

Your Fix did allow it to print, but /etc/init.d/lpr restart is a real pain,
if you follow me.
is there any way that this can be resolved without some cron job restarting
the lpd every minute?

Thanks

 10.10.1.3 might need to convert postscript and other whacky files
 into the output format that printer understands

 sometimes the printer manager is also waiting for CRLF at the end
 of the print job
 - restarting the printer daemon locally will tell the
 remote printer i'm done and paper will promptly start spewing
 out

one more time to the correct address. (Doh!)


 Printing works great as root but as user it fails..

 lpq says,
 Warning: lp is down: sending to 10.10.1.3
 Warning: lp queue is turned off

lpd printing problems to HP directjet card

2004-06-14 Thread Kent Andersen



anyone know how to make lpd work with the hp 
directjet network printer?
I have been to about every website that shows how 
to use lpd but when i 
send a print job using lpr to the printer it does 
the staircase problem. so I installed the 
filter which should keep that from happening, but 
alas it did not.
so then I got the foomatic-rip script and the 
associated .ppd file for the printer. and it doesnt work at 
all
I have the a2gs installed so it shoud 
work.

it shouldnt be this difficult to get a plain text 
print going but Im having severe problems making this work 
correctly.

here is my printcap

lp|hp:\
:lp=/dev/null: 
\ 

:force_localhost: 
\ 

:if=/var/spool/lpd/foomatic-rip: 
\ 

:ppd=/var/spool/lpd/HP-Color_LaserJet_5M-Postscript.ppd: 
\ 

:sd=/var/spool/lpd/lp: 
\ 

:rm=10.10.1.3:\ 

:mx#0:sh:


With this printcap setting it doesnt print anywhere 
I dohave this line placed in the .ppd file

*FoomaticRIPPostPipe: "| /usr/bin/nc -w 1 hp 
9100"



anyone an old pro with this that can help me out?

 maybe a little hand holding is in order

you don't want to use the boot disk that you made while installing, but 
resc1440 itself.  If you overwrote it during install, you need to 
download it again.

When the first screen to choose mono or video comes up, hit alt-f2 to 
get to the console.

then 

  mount /dev/hda1 /target   (assuming you're on hda1)

ae /target/etc/shadow

and the first entry will look something  like 

root:0ydgf0ldjehtbp10479:0:9:7:::

change it to

root::0:9:7:::

and root will have no password.

however, writing the resc1440 will be difficult if you don't have a user
account that can write to /dev/fd0; you will probably need to boot into 
dos and use rawrite2, or use another computer to make the disk.

Autokill Runaway scripts?

1998-03-08 Thread Kent Andersen
Everything looks good, other than the cgi craps out.
have cgi supported in apache and have pearl installed.
its like an out of the box install,
it acts like a permissions problem but Im not to shure, 
I put the cgi scripts at 755 and still no go. even tried 777 but still no
go. where am I missing the point. 
I a couple of virtual domains and the cgi wont work for them either. Even
though I have the httpd.conf pointed to the directory that the cgi should
be in . 
This is probobly an easy fix, scince it seems that I am the only one having
trouble with it.

Re: Network Card

1998-03-08 Thread Kent Andersen
heres the trick with getting a plug and play network card going on your
Linux box. its a little bit down and dirty but it works really good.
first, get a dos boot disk and boot your computer from floppy.
then use the installation disk supplied with the NE2000 card.
you should have a couple of options in there to change the card from
plug-'n play to standard or Dos mode.
goto the non plug-'n play mode. 
it should ask you for some addresses to set the card to.
I like to use the x300 and 10 for the base memory and IRQ, they are usually
open on most machines unless you have a scsi card on that address, then you
will have to use something else.

exit the software and WRITE the new settings to the card. (should be
automatic)
reboot to linux:
add the modprobe ne2000 x300 command to your bootfile and reboot again..
should work nicely if there arent any conflicts.
and it is pretty quick and easy to do.

good luck
Kent
