Actually, the above would be only if you have your ssh key registered
at the git store. If not you would rather use the following first
command:

$ git remote add origin https://git.devuan.org/kryn/webraid.git

and then follow on with the login credentials it asks for.

There are 60+ packages that match 'texlive-*'; add others as needed.

If you have sufficient disk space, you could instead run

# apt-get install texlive-full

That gets them all.

You need an acount set up first; let's say it's "kryn" and for the sake
of example I use the name "webraid" for this project.

Then, at home, you use the 2 commands:

$ git remote add origin g...@git.devuan.org:kryn/webraid.git

$ git push --set-upstream origin master

Thereafter you need to jump onto the store's web interface and change
the project settings into not being a private project.

Did you clear the ip addreses? I use the command below together with ifupdown:

#|ip addr flush dev wlan0|

Another way might be to force DHCP client release your ip:

# dhclient -r wlan0

# rm|/var/lib/dhcp/dhclient.wlan0.leases (!! Not sure about the name of the 
file storing the leases)|


# dhclient wlan0

This way you reacquire a fresh ip from the DHCP server.||

Re: [DNG] Fake RAID

On the other hand, mdadm also is not a
piece of cake but I can find my way with it and I have developped a 
graphics
monitoring tool for it, actually a little web server displaying the 
status

of all the host's md RAIDs.

That looks useful.
I already have a web server.
Is it possible to easily configure this thing so it provides content 
to an existing web server?


    Diskweb is a minimal web server providing two tables:

    - the status of md RAID devices

    - the occupancy of mounted filesystems

    - an index file containing links to the 2 above.

If you want to aglomerate contents from various web services, I 
recommend installing Nginx. Nginx is a very nice web server and 
reverse-proxy. It is relatively easy to configure and is designed to be 
the front-end to other servers, wether http, https, cgi-bin and 
fcgi-bin. One possible role is as an https front-end merging data from 
http or fcgi-bin servers either local or in LAN.


A few years ago I set up such a service in which one of the pages was 
merging RAID status tables from 5 diskweb servers in the LAN.


I think it makes sense to separate raw content production (like diskweb 
does) and polished presentation.

Hi,
did you check if the not correctly handled interface is
set in /etc/network/interfaces and therefore not
handled by NetworManager if 

[ifupdown]
managed=false

which is the default setting is set in /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf 

Hope this helps.

Ciao,
Tito

[DNG] NetworkManager Applet 1.24.0 on daedalus quite broken with multiple interfaces

2022-03-11 Thread Lars Noodén via Dng

It appears that the NetworkManager Applet 1.24.0 built into XFCE4 on
daedalus is quite broken and can't route properly across multiple
interfaces.  Indeed the icon only shows a single interface even if
"route -n" shows the other.  If I add additional interfaces then
NetworkManager adds those and routes appropriately even if they are on
the same net as the interface it ignores.

The only thing which has changed lately was a fresh installation of
daedalus via an absolutely minimal chimaera installation where
everything was unselected from tasksel.  Then once daedalus was in
place, tasksel was used to install XFCE4 and console utilities.

What if anything can be done with the NetworkManager to get it to
acknowledge the built-in interface or can I replace NetworkManager with
something else?
