Re: [gentoo-user] screen and Ctrl-S not working any more?
A. Khattri [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Hmm.. on many systems, CTRL S is used to stop output on a terminal. CTRL Q resumes it. Probably the terminal driver is intercepting it before it gets through ssh to your emacs session. On many terminals you can precede any control sequence with CTRL V to bypass the terminal driver. Thanks for your input. Appearently I switch XON/XOFF setting for just one window in the running screen session and got confused about it. Thanks anyway! Martin -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

[gentoo-user] screen and Ctrl-S not working any more?
Hi! When connecting to one of my gentoo servers via SSH, I've got a strange problem: Ctrl+S is not sent to my screen sessions any more, instead handled directly by the shell, causing the sesssion to freeze. This is extremly annoying as many emacs shortcuts require Ctrl+S. Anyone got any idea what could have changed? Best regards, Martin -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] No HTML in posts?
Hi! James Colannino [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: I'm very against HTML mail, just for the record. That being said, aren't there HTML filters for command line mail clients that will strip tags from your view of the text and make it more readable? Just wondering. I'm using Gnus in emacs to read my newsgroups and mailinglists on a ssh terminal, so I'm stuck to console for the moment (not that I'd regret it, though :)). Gnus for instance supports the inclusion of lynx/elinks/elinks2 for reading HTML messages. Still, I prefer to read plain text for some reasons, especially because I have quote-highlighting turned on and that just works with the common or | tags in front of every quotation line.

Re: [gentoo-user] Problems changing email clients
Holly Bostick [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Now, I could always leave the mail on the POP3 server just for that, but I also want to know how Sylpheed will act upon my current settings (labels, filters, etc). And I just don't want to have to manage two mail directories, even temporarily. In this case I'd suggest using IMAP. If your provider does not support IMAP you could easily set up your own local IMAP server. Since I first tried IMAP I can't imagine working without it anymore, as I have to access several mailboxes from different machines and keeping them all in sync would be horrible/impossible with POP3.

Re: [gentoo-user] Users with access to shell!
[EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: How can secure my server with this users accessing to shell? , If you can't trust your users you always have a problem as shell access and/or compiler-access are the first steps to installing a root-kit if they are really up to this kind of things. Putting them in a changeroot might help in some cases but there are often ways out of the jail. In my opinion: if you can't trust your users you should not give them shell access. At least that is what I am doing with my users on my servers. Just my 2 cents, Martin -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Programs executed as root cannot connect to X server
