E50 has some major features cut off.
E61,E61i, and E90 are the ones which have all the major features you can 
ask for in a phone, other than touchscreen.
WLAN,SIP, BlueTooth, IR, BB support, Intellisync support. So E61 onwards 
is what you are looking at.

 Hi Folks
 I need to setup a file repository for an internal website. Its something
 like an FTP server but with a web interface, with categories etc. (like
 download.com). I know that its possible to create this using any of the
 available CMSs but I don't want to learn an entire CMS for just this as I'm
 not interested in any customization. Appearance doesn't matter to me, I just
 need it without frills. I was hoping to find an Open Source solution that I
 could use out of the box. Any suggestions on this, or a simpler way of going
 about this than learning to customize a CMS?

Or you can just Sort your internal Downloads manually into appropriate 
categories and give out a directory listing over Apache.

 This is something I have been battling for long. How can I set a

 Maybe I am doing something stupid? Help!

My best guess is you are trying to start some UI application lets say 
synaptic which needs superuser
permissions to work properly or even start. You have given sudo 
appname in gnome session but
its not working. To solve that there are 2 solutions I can recommend 
though i must say they are a
MAJOR security loop hole in system.
1. Run this on the app
 # chmod u+s appname
This will let ANY user run the app as super user without sudo
2. Or
#visudo
and change your sudo entry to look like this
user   ALL=NOPASSWD:ALL
This will give the specific user rights to EXECUTE anything as superuser 
without giving passwd but
still needing sudo (This is probably what you want if you are running a 
desktop)

 my synaptic is also not running ..  even apt-get, aptitude,dpkg commands are
 not working (They exit with error disk full)

   How do I clean my disk... ??

   
Try running
#apt-get clean
also check your /var/log/ and delete all gz files
if there is a really big fiile in /var/log try running
#logrotate -f /etc/logrotate.conf
once done also try emptying out the /tmp

And my major guess is you are using a Dual boot and you havent given 
enuf space to Linux / and installed
a UI interface and have actually choked it with lot of applications, so 
you should check what you have
installed.

IF the first 2-3 steps dont clean it you need to check your system for 
any extra apps you installed recently

[ilugd] Debian or RHEL

2006-04-30 Thread Manpreet Singh Nehra
Not intrested in starting a flame war, but I ahve been pondering over
this question for quiet some time.

I need to decide on whether to use RHEL4 or Debian Sarge on a LAMP
server. Few parameters on the choice
1. I am comfortable to equal level with RH and Debian Sarge. So its not
a question of Comfort.
2. Security?
3. Bug Fixes?
4. Frequency of updates?

The other options is OpenBSD but I still have to go over the apache2.0
-1.3 issue, whether I can live
with apache 1.3 or not

Please Please, No Flaming I am just asking the gurus on their
preference, Since this  is a production
server, I can't take any chances.

If you ran the sql file before and it failed with some error you might

You need to know first where on which device has put the cd writing device
1. Go to xerm/konxole or Press Ctrl+Alt+F1, adn enter the CLI mode 
anyway you like.
2. Login in the console
4. Since you most probably have an IDE cd writer
#dmesg |grep CD
this will tell you which device is your CD/DVD writer.
5. Open K3b. Go To Settings and Select K3b Setup.
6. Enter the root password
7. Set the device up in the device options
8. If you have a scsi cd/DVD writer
9. run cdrecoed -scanbus
10. follow steps 5-8.

 What are women using Linux for? What interests them? If we talk about

 Indeed, if I felt that I would be treated as just another human being

  c) Changing, or rather adding to the guidelines of the LUG posting
  methods/rules.

 Heh. I just noticed that the guidelines say:

 Be polite [...] No one minds a little sense of humour though.

 Also, how about adding a link to the HOW TO ENCOURAGE WOMEN IN LINUX
 which I sent in my earlier posting? At least that might indicate to
 members that the list has at least thought about making things
 woman-friendly.

 I find it very interesting and telling that when the thread was being
 general, there were many posts to and fro- defensive and offensive. But
 after I have requested people to go through the HOW TO- nobody, nobody
 has responded to that (is it useful? Can they think of applying any of
 those to the delhi LUG?.)
  Does it say something about the seriousness of those who said that they
 want feedback from a woman? That HOW TO is written by a whole lot of
 women.

and GRUB created a problem, I could not boot into any O/S and no help
was there as no body in my contacts had any Linux experience. I had to
format my hard drive.

Hi Pramod,
Anyone here will be glad to help you out, BUT if we do 
it for you what did you learn. you know the famous saying To get 
something , you have to lose something. Well so to get your exp. with 
it you will have to lose some of your 'precious' Windows(TM) time. What 
I would like to suggest that you pick up Mandrake 10 CD and use that to 
install I am sure you would have no prob. and if you do you can call  me 
(only if you tried yourself first) and I can guide you trough it, but 
take my word you won't gain anything with me doing it. You doing it 
yourself will be much better off. and in any case before going ahead 
just backup your data so you are free to experiment, after all this is 
what you work on computers, to learn from practice :)

in this regard i copied the hdd_grub.img file on a floppy using rawrite.exe utility

c:/mandrake/cd1.iso

i have also extracted the images into the folders:
c:/mandrake/cd1
c:/mandrake/cd2
c:/mandrake/cd3
can u provide me the changes that i shud make to the menu.lst file in the file.
   

Forwarded to guru's for helping Puneet
 

Well you can accomplish that y merging the folders you have extracted 
the images into into 1 i.e.
  |
C:/mandrake/cd1|
C:/mandrake/cd2|  --- C:/Mandrake
C:/mandrake/cd3|

Now when you boot from your floppy specify the dump directory as 
/dev/hda1/Mandrake and it will work

 okay! that's cool! that's done! this will be covered in the fifteen
 minutes of fame for the newbies at the beginning of the meet: i'd
 suggest we call this topic: Trivializing Windoze.  :-)
 
 1) burn cds using K3B. a demo will be nice. push it up with webCD, that
 allows you to do this over a network and thru a browser.
It would be a good option to cover CD writing in depth since most of the
frontends don't implement all the options of cdrecord and not even
mkisofs
 2) configuring browzer, look at browzer options. adding flash, and
 adding java and javascript support.
 3) getting xmms, mp3, yadda yadda to work.
 4) first look at webmin: that takes care of sysadmin for newbies  :-)
 5) [add your topic here, newbies]
 

 yup, this is good. newbies will  love this. who volunteers to show the
 above. i suppose mayank could do this. mayank, could you please
 volunteer?

 you can always post them on list. We can have a meet

Re: [ilugd] Email server with dual gateways

 Ankur,
 
It appears to me that you are not using a secondary
 mail server independently. Why should secondary mail
 server be contacting primary to deliver mail. The
 purpose of having a secondary mail server is defeated.
 
 I would setup a box to run secondary mail server
 independently. Setup rsync to sync up password /
 shadow / group / services files and /home from primary
 to secondary. When primary mail server goes down and
 mail is being received on secondary, fetchmail can be
 used on primary to retrieve mail from secondary box
 and deliver it on primary box so that it will be
 transparent to users.
 
 P.S. The subject line leads one to think there are two
 gateways on same box.
Actually there are 2 gateways for the main machine one direct and other
via the LAN

Re: [ilugd] Email Query

2004-02-29 Thread Manpreet Singh Nehra
You should try the email monitors from postfix.org
 I already tried that, in fact i also tried some others apps like multitail
 etc which also do a good job of coloring the output. But i dont want to
 monitor the logs , what i would really like is to see the SMTP sessions as
 they are happening.

I think what you want is to monitor the Postfix log file. Try the command
'tail -f /var/log/maillog' You will have to run it as root though.

Hi Everyone!
   I would like to request everyone to post a summary at the end

to read the relevant threads only if have properly pointed to

Re: [ilugd] Which is better : Sendmail/ Qmail/ Postfix

2004-02-19 Thread Manpreet Singh Nehra

 please help me decide which MTA should i install for
 my mails.

 Which is better : Sendmail/ Qmail/ Postfix?
As far as I have searched and googled Qmail is the best till date but I
used postfix since it seemed easier to work with. On the whole the y both
work pretty well although qmail has a slightly more rich feature set..It
would be better if you could try both qmail and postfix beore trying much.
Sendmail has been surpassed in both security and performance by Qmail and
Postfix. As far as I tested postfix delivers apporox 400 mails per minute
and more depending on the server hardware.. I will like to hear views from
other guys

 can we have some kind of polling for this as well as
 few more ques like this, like the forum thing ;)

Re: [ilugd] Re: Possible additional feature for the list

2004-02-18 Thread Manpreet Singh Nehra
Mairu,
  Mairu,

 If you feel so strongly about this, so far you have volunteered to :-

 1. Get the free hosting space and install your favourite forums software
 on
 that.

 It is the ILUG community that decides.

 2. Coax Raj to point forums.linux-delhi.org to the newly created forums
 site.

 Coax ? Why would i need to coax ? It's not my personal benefit.


 Which he would probably do if you convince him that there shall be no
 advertisements on Linux Delhi forums(to support the free hosting space
 that
 you are providing)

 That is not a question, i didnt think we went to that low a standard yet.
 since you have information about my coaxing, i suppose you must know i
 didnt
 say anything like that.


  and how it would help achieve deficit free Union budget,
 gender equality, world peace. apart from furthering the cause of
 FLOSS(Free Libre and Open Source Software)


 Well, supposedly yeah


 3. Post the Forum's Subscribe URL to the mailing list and have an Opt-in
 from members to the Forums
 ...
 x. Rope in others who supported the idea of forums as volunteers to
 moderate it.


 Thanks for the instructions boss.
 Unfortunately, this forum cannot be run without the experienced member
 base of
 the LUGD coming forward to moderate/sustain it. I have only volunteered
 for
 hosting space, not installing, managing, moderating. So, i'm not the only
 one
 who will be in this. Atleast, we could give it a try guys. I'm not of the
 view
 that forums are the best thing that could happen. But i believe that,
 beyond
 techies, there is a world, where its difficult for normal people, people
 who
 are new to Linux, for them, it's difficult to understand the small
 intricacies
 of Linux, there must be some people who wouldn't appreciate the loads of
 mail,
 or just not like the idea. Maybe its too boring for them.

 I am willing to give it a try. I will first go through phorum/phpbb
and later I would be able to say If I would be able do it or not
(being within limits) I would need about a week to get through every
aspect of that (I have not yet seen wither of them or worked with
them if needed I might rope in a developer I know)


 Because in the current system, you seem to have only two options :
 Either go in for all emails or announcements (under construction)

There is no selective reading, that's one thing i think is important
 for
 new people. For people who have been on this list forever, and who aren't
 having a problem, will like to continue, but then, can't we change and see
 ?
 Can we not see if this new system brings a new cheer in the sort of
 postings/cross postings that usually happen ? We could become more active,
 happening, newbie-friendly.

 Alright, those were just my 2 bucks.
 I am not a complete techie, so i cannot setup a PHPbb. I'll start a
 separate
 thread asking for PHPbb techies who might be able to help.

 I think this asks for a community call to get together and try a new
 lease.

 cOmE oN guys !!

Re: [ilugd] Has any one used floppy based Linux firewalls/routers? Whathas been the experience?

2003-12-28 Thread Manpreet Singh Nehra
Dear Arjun,
   I can't say about Linux but there is one ClosedBSD which is
exactly what you want. But it won't allow data caching since it
is not capable of accessing Hard disks.
It is available both as CDROM based and floppy based but its
based on FreeBSD but you can give it a try.
 Dear Friends,

 I plan to use an old PC based Linux firewall/router for my father's office
 network. I want to know which ones are good and can be used/implemented
 easily.
 There will be around 20 Win/Lin machines with one proxy+mail server (may
 be Linux). The network will be connected to Internet thru cable/DSL/Modem.
 The Lin firewall/router will sit between the internal network and
 internet.

 Regards.

 Arjun Asthana
