Only a few of us use the Jabber server on euglug.org, but it is dead now. I tried to upgrade to the new version 1.2, and haven't been able to get it running. I ran out of time on Friday to play with it. -Rob.

2000-12-08 Thread Rob Hudson
Hi, Sometimes when I run the sacred 'apt-get update apt-get upgrade', it reports to me that some packages have been 'kept back'. And lists that a certain number of packages 'have not been upgraded'. What is the usual reason for this and how do you get them to upgrade? Thanks, Rob.

The kernel has support for different resolutions in console mode, although I don't think you can make it bigger, but I'm not sure. I've done it before to make the text smaller, but that's not what you want. To try it out, you'll need a kernel recompile if it's not compiled in already. Console

I got it working. Same file as below, but invoking this command: g++ -o hello hello.c I tried gcc also and got the same result as you did. If you do a 'locate iostream.h' you'll see that it is in the g++ include directory. So maybe they aren't merged. But I'm no expert and could be way off.

Looking at some portsentry stuff. It looks like you can do a simple redirect on someone. It was suggested to me that a good way to deal with a portscan is to redirect to an IP that has nothing on the other end, so the person portscanning times out. What is a good IP number to accomplish this
