echo is an internal service of inetd, thus it cannot be wrapped with
tcpwrappers (AFAIK)  

probably your best bet is to setup an ipchains rule

problem reading vim online dox

[Aaron Maxwell]

Hi happy people.

In vim, if I type
  :help
I get 
  Sorry, help file "/usr/share/vim/vim56/doc/help.txt" not found
  Press RETURN or enter command to continue
I get this _exact_ same error message if i type any other help command, eg
  :help uganda

The help files are in the vim-rt package, /usr/share/vim/vim56/doc/*.txt.gz
(I'm running potato, vim-rt version 5.6.070-1, vim version 5.6.070-1)

Intriguingly, if I uncompress the doc files (gzip -d
/usr/share/vim/vim56/doc/*.txt.gz), typing 
  :help
yields
  "help.txt" [readonly] 1297L, 61010C
  There is only one matching tag
  File "/usr/share/vim/vim56/doc/help.txt.gz" does not exist
  Press RETURN or enter command to continue
and then it displays the help file!  But if I type
  :help uganda
the response is 
  "help.txt" [readonly] 1297L, 61010C
  There is only one matching tag
  File "/usr/share/vim/vim56/doc/uganda.txt.gz" does not exist
  Press RETURN or enter command to continue
and it gives the general help file (help.txt[.gz]), instead of telling me
how to help Ugandan orphans.

If I have all the .txt files compressed except for help.txt, typing
  :help uganda
yields
  "uganda.txt.gz" [readonly][noeol] 16L, 3666C
  16 lines filtered
  Error detected while processing BufReadPost Auto commands for "*.gz":
  Invalid expression: ":doautocmd BufReadPost " . %:r
  Press RETURN or enter command to continue
and _then_ it gives me the correct help file.  This works, but it's
suboptimal, because next time i upgrade, apt-get won't know to remove the
old help.txt (because only help.txt.gz is in the vim-rt packge.)

Has anyone run into this problem and solved it?
thanks in advance :)

Problems with PCI modem.

[PeHaSys]

I've bought computer parts through compuplus and built a computer
for me.  I have, in my opinion, a weird problem.

Modem is (from output of lspci -v) "Serial controller: US
Robotics/3Com 56K FaxModem Model 5610 (rev 01) (prog-if 02 [16550])
Subsystem: US Robotics/3Com USR 56k Internal Voice Modem (Model 2976)
Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 9
I/O ports at d400
.

Modem works "fine" under MS Windows '98 (always getting 26400
connection to my current ISP and I tried just to connect to other places,
but CONNECT message wasn't never worse, never better than 26400).  But it
works (I can connect to, let's say www.debian.org and see their page).

In Linux though, the modem connects to my ISP, gets the local and
remote IP number (through PAP), but after that I can ping just my assigned
local IP number, but remote number is not responding.  I have to mention
that in configuration I use modem (as /dev/modem), so when I borrowed
external modem, connected it to my 9-pin COM port, link /dev/modem to ttyS0,
the connection worked just fine.

Since the modem is internal, I have to activate it by running
setserial (non-standard port).  Maybe there is the weakness.  The last
command I tried was:
setserial /dev/ttyS2 uart 16550 port 0xd400 irq 9 baud_base 115200 spd_hi
.

I tried many things, like assigning ISA to IRQ 9 in BIOS, therefore
assigning IRQ like 5 or 7 to modem card.  I tried to play with setserial
command, like using 16550A instead of 16550, not mentioning baud_base and
spd_hi, trying to connect on 57600 to modem (it's set on 115200 in MS
Windows).  I am running out of ideas

Do you have any experience with internal non-lin/win-modems or do
you have any suggestions or proposals?  Help would be greatly appreciated.

Peter.

P.S.1:  Please CC to me as well, I am not subscribed to this mailing list.
P.S.2:  In case you think output of ppp.log or whole lspci -v or something
else would help, please, just let me know.  The motherboard is SD11

kernel-2.2.16

[Umum Wijoyo]

Hi,

I read in the Debian Security section, there's a serious bug in the Linux
kernel, and we are advised to do an upgrade.
So where can I find the kernel-2.2.16 source? This version is OK, I
presume?

OK! Thanks!

arp fails under potato

[Alexander Perry]

A dualboot machine has Win98, with Potato x86/linux installed
using the test CDs as available from about three weeks ago.
It did not have the option of being a slink machine because
the application requires utah-glx for accelerated 3D support.

All my local machines are slink->potato upgrades; this one
(which is 100 miles away at the end of a voice telephone)
is my first directly-to-potato installed system.
It was originally installed with no network interfaces,
and everything (non-internet) seems to be working fine.

A tulip card was recently added, and Win98 can now use the 
cable modem fine, but I'm having trouble with the Debian side.
I talked the owner through creating an /etc/init.d/network
which seems to work fine when manually executed, even though
it does not have the softlinks from the rc*.d directories yet.

The ifconfig and route listings are verbally read back ok.
But, if it pings its gateway (for example), the new entry
appears in the "arp -n" listing.  But it never gets resolved
and so the system is unable to route IP traffic outbound.

Something somewhere is blocking the arp from operating;
I'd appreciate suggestions of what I must have forgotten.

The obvious solution is to discard my /etc/init.d/network
file and try filling in the blanks inside /etc/network/interfaces
to see whether it magically fixes the problem.  I'd like
some reason for believing that this will work before starting.

I'd prefer find the trivial little configuration error that
I've made, and fix it so the system appears on the internet.
I can then complete the rest of the setup effort directly.

Alex.

Huge font

[Glen Sawtell]

Hi,
I am a new debian user and I have a problem which none of my debian-using
friends have come across. It seems that some apps like netscape, GIMP, spruce 
etc
seem to be using a large size helvetica font for the text on buttons and input
fields etc. It's quite annoying and I don't think it's normal, is there a font
package I am missing or something similar?. Please help.

Why do you want a kernel module? Can't I just use the 'outb' 
command in c (#include "asm/io.h" or so)? of course this requires 
root priviliges, but that's probably not a problem when you're even 
allowed to stick your own hardware in the parallel port :)

I found an easier way: just putting a led and a 470 ohm resistor 
(serially) between the data connector and one of the 'ground' 
('earth'?) connector of the parallel port.

There are 75dpi and 100dpi font packages, you should probably install
xfonts-75dpi and rearrange the FontPath entries in /etc/X11/XF86Config
to put the path to the 75dpi fonts first.

assuming that your /etc/inittab is untouched, you should remove it

the FontPath "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi" should come in

IDE/DMA problems?

[Horacio MG]

Hello,

currently I'm entering the BIOS quite often for enabling/disabling the
IDE/SCSI boot, so that I can boot from an IDE (UDMA) HD or a SCSI HD as
needed.

All of a sudden, I've started to see some message from the kernel.  Here
is the 'dmesg' relevant part:

PCI_IDE: unknown IDE controller on PCI bus 00 device 78, VID=10b9,
DID=5229
PCI_IDE: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
PCI_IDE: simplex device:  DMA disabled
ide0: PCI_IDE Bus-Master DMA disabled (BIOS)
PCI_IDE: simplex device:  DMA disabled
ide1: PCI_IDE Bus-Master DMA disabled (BIOS)
hda: ST38630A, ATA DISK drive
hdb: CRD-8400C, ATAPI CDROM drive
hdc: ST34321A, ATA DISK drive

.. strange as right now I've booted from the IDE disk and IDE boot mode
*IS* enabled in my BIOS.  I'm 100% sure I haven't fiddled with any other
BIOS option.

Any idea as to why this is happening?

Please, Cc: me as I'm not on this list.

setting up ipmasq

[Shao Zhang]

Hi,
I have recompiled my kerenel to have all the required modules
for ipmasq. Then I apt-get installed ipmasq package. My
impression is that things should work straight away...

But I am getting network unreachable when trying to access
internet from a box behind the firewall. I can ping the firewall
with no problem.

Here is the output from /usr/sbin/ipmasq -d, all settings are
default. Can anyone suggest me how to debug the ipmasq package?

Thanks in advance.

Shao.

The box I am trying to acess the internet is 192.168.1.2.

Re: kernel-2.2.16

No you're not wrong. The debian packages for 2.2.15-3 address the recently
proclaimed kernel exploits in regards to the POSIX setuid issues. Kernels
for 2.0.x are not effected, 2.1.x, 2.2.x, 2.3.x users are advised to
update.

Full information is on the Debian website, linked off the main page.

With a network unreachable, it sounds more like you dont' have the firewall set 
up as
the gateway for the workstation.  What does 'route' show? You probably need to 
add a

RE: serial mouse

[Marvin Stodolsky]

1) First make sure your are describing the mouse port as:
  /dev/ttyS0
NOT   /ttys0

2) If you have installed  gpm-frozenVer.deb, this update
sets up to new mouse devices: /dev/gpmdata and /dev/gpmctl
and more over,with WARNING sets
   /dev/mouse -> /dev/gpmdata
(a Bug report has been filed)
Thus if you enter  /dev/mouse in XF86Config, it will try use
/dev/gpmdata which might not suffice.  It didn't on my
laptop with ps2 mouse (/dev/psaux)
Changing from /dev/mouse to /dev/psaux in XF86Config solved
the X problem for me.

Sorry, I can't really help you there, since I don't have a lot
experience in building my own packages.

IIRC lex is a lexical analyser generater, which means that it takes some
regexp's and rules from an input file and generates some C-Code to scan
for those regexp's.  Judging from the error message you posted on the
net, I assume that fetchmail uses lex to generate (part of) the code
that scans the .fetchmailrc file and encouters an error in its input
file (rcfile_1.1), but I am just guessing here.

The fetchmail FAQ isn't very detailed either, it just mentions to
install flex instead of using lex.  I'm sure, you can find flex on
http://www.freshmeat.net/ and if installing doesn't help, you could
check out the fetchmail-friends mailing list mentioned in the FAQ.

Somewhat.  There are some bugs, though, which haven't been resolved.  Both
are considerably faster in full-screen mode.

There is an alternative called Win4Lin:

http://www.trelos.com/trelos/Trelos/Products/Product_Information.htm

This is useful if you _only_ want to use Windows (and don't need other OS
environments).  I don't know how it works, though.  It's new.

Error in the Potato rescue.bin

[Nagarjuna G.]

I have checked at a few of the ftp sites, where the file rescue.bin (of
1.44MB) image of POTATO distro has an error, and so cannot be downloaded.
The file has the `Read error at byte 4035/1474560'.  I have checked the
ftp.debian.org, ftp.uk.debian.org sites. I donot know whom to report, if any
of you know please forward this mail to the concerned person.

Till then, if any of you know of a place where I can download a working
copy, please let me know. You may even email me the image as an attachement.

Thanks

That really sounds more like floppy driver, and floppy disk problem to me.
Have you tried using a different disk?

Re: How to enable some specify users to run pon and poff?

[Robert Varga]

There is a pon or dialout group depending on the version of Debian you are
using.

Add the user to that group (adduser user group), and that's all. (Look at
the group of /usr/sbin/pppd to know which group.

Re: IDE/DMA problems?

[Jason Quigley]

Hi Horacio!

I too get this message, but it started occurring when I attached an IDE
CDROM to the same channel as the hard disk. I guess it's just stepping down
or something. I was using a SCSI CDROM before and didn't have this problem.

My suggestion would be to put the CDROM onto the other channel and see if
things are better. I certainly see myself buying an IDE card for this
reason.

Cheers,
Jason.

Hmm, I haven't had any problems with the mouse.  You have installed the
VMWare Tools in Win98 right?  You might also want to make sure you have
the latest version of VMware.  I noticed a huge mouse latency problem in
the earlier versions, but none in the current version.

I found the user needed to be added to both groups, dip and dialout.

usermod -G 20,30 username

is your friend here.  Read the man page carefully as any group the
user is currently a member of will be removed if not included in the

Re: IDE/DMA problems?

[Mark Herrick]

I too get this message at boot, but i have 2 IDE drives on the 1st
controller, and a CD-ROM drive on the 2nd.
I don't think it's a problem with CD/HD on the same controller - I think
the kernel doesn't recognise the IDE controller.
Anyone got any ideas?

saying "Debian GNU/Linux" I got "This is an unsecure session," and I
cannot login now as root or as anyone else.  I have booted from the rescue

what file to edit to recover my ability to login.

Keeping up2date with 'unstable' without beeing connected to the internet

[Markus Fischer]

Hello,

I'm running a few servers and workstation in a private network
where I work. For security and variuous policy reasons it's not
allowed beeing connected to the internet.

I've now upgraded all machines to potato TC 2 and I'm very happy.
But for developing I need some machines running unstable. I can
burn a few cd's with unstable and have a one-time complete
mirror.

But how to I approach the 'keeping up2date' problem ? I can't
fetch a new Packages list just from the network I am (no internet
connection).

I'm thinking about bringing the new packages from time to time
with my zip drive to work. But how do I now which packages have
changes since the last time ? I don't want to have a machine at
home with a full mirror or with all the packages installed I have
at work.

I hope I explained my problem clear enough ;) Thanks for any
advice !

kind regards,
Markus

Have you tried http? It sounds very strange that this error occurs. Even
if the file was corrupted, the ftp server wouldn't care.

Then your system is somehow misconfigured.  Pppd should run as root when
opening the serial port: the user should not need permissions on it.

A good reason for using the adduser front-end to useradd.

The version of pppconfig in unstable takes care of adding users to dip.

Usually I use wget, but this time in order to double check I have used
netscape also.  Same error.  

However, I seemed to be getting
../disks-i386/2.2.15-2000-06-07/images-1.44/safe/rescue.bin.

Possibly this file is not corrupted.

In anycase the above error remains strange.

Funny format CD's...

[Hugo van der Merwe]

Is it possible to mount the 7th track of a CD? The first 6 being audio
tracks, and the seventh the first and only data track?

I believe it is possible to write another track to a CD-R device later, as
long as the disk hasn't been fixated. I was just wondering if it was
possible to add a data track after adding audio tracks...

Is it otherwise possible to rip a specific track, but not making it an
audio track? i.e. suppose I write a data track to track 7, I'd like to rip
it back to the CD image it was... I'd guess cdparanoia won't work, 'cause
it extracts audio tracks to wave files... the last thing I can think of,
is dumping the whole CD, and then cutting off the first part and possibly
the last part, so that you'll only be left with track 7...

Any ideas?

Thanks

I've attached syslog files for both diald and pon with debugging.  I can see
some obvious differences in the two just in the "language" formatting, but
it's very Greek to me otherwise.  Pap authorization was set for pon using

Outgoing mail in Exim

Hello

Is it possible to save a copy of all outgoing mail of some user to some
place on the system? I mean similar to the way you can additionally
forward someone's mail to another user account with the dot-forward
mechanism.
This is on a potato box with Exim 3.12.

You need to add additional getty entries to /etc/inittab, and tell
init to notice ('telinit q' as root works well here).  You also need
to make sure that your X server and a getty don't try to use the same
virtual console, or else it's Really Bad (TM) (as in, your system is
unusable if you can't log in remotely or through a dumb terminal or
something like that); check your X display manager's configuration
file for details, and be really careful when upgrading.

(ObGrr: I think it's annoying that gdm has vt07 hardcoded in its
config file, since this causes this sort of lossage if I'm using
vt01...vt09 as text terminals and I go ahead and tell dpkg to replace
gdm.conf.  Sigh.)

What you want is a new session.  You'll blow another 13MB opening an extra
session, but as long as you can live with that, you're fine.  A common way
of doing what you want is like this:

[session1:  ][session2: ]

Where track1 and track2 are audio and track3 is data.  Most CD-ROM drives
(1x and 4x don't--but for some reason almost all 2x did) support
multisession CDs.  That is, when you stick a disc like this in them, they
will see the second (data) session (some drives will even let you switch
sessions).  No audio CD player that I know of will even be aware that the
second session exists.  It will just see the first session which is all
audio tracks.

Keep in mind that (except for the dd line I just gave you) I've never done

apt-get dist-upgrade

[Sven Burgener]

Hello

With a sources.list like the following, will "apt-get dist-upgrade"
cause the system to be upgraded the same way as it would happen with a
simple "upgrade"? (I am running potato now)

deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian potato main contrib non-free
deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US potato/non-US main contrib
non-free
deb http://security.debian.org potato/updates main contrib non-free

To upgrade to woody, I would need to change potato to woody in
sources.list and rerun dist-upgrade? (Preceeded by an apt-get update, of
course)
Is that all correct? Would / should / will the upgrade go smoothly? :)

TIA

S L O W mailserver

[Jaye Inabnit ke6sls]

Hello,

I have a really slow mail server problem. The guy says it shouldn't be
slow but it is. I know he is running Red Hat on all his boxes on this ISP
and don't know which mailserver he uses for POP3. 

My question is, can I some how trace all tcp/ip traffic to a file when I click
on my mail icon in KDE? Would be nice to start the file just prior to hitting
the button, then end the file folllowing the last message so I can show him
the times down to the second from the actual start of the session to the
end of the session.

TIA

Re: Intel i810 XServer? NOW Goes

[Dave Whiteley]

Thanks for the pointer to the i810 data.

I now have the system working well.

To help others I have documented the stages I found necessary. 
Sorry if it is a bit long but I tried to make it as newbie friendly
as possible. 

#
The procedure for setting up the i810 X server on a DELL Optiplex
GS110 with GNU/Debian Linux.

First install Linux in the usual way, selecting the XWindows task, 
but do not allow it to create the XF86 Configuration  file.

When the initial installation is complete use dselect 
(or your favourite other method) to install the XServer-SVGA, and the
kernel source package. I make sure that I accept the suggestion
of a ncurses library packege at this point (for make menuconfig
later). Accept this as the default server, but again do not create the
configuration file.
When you run the second install you will probably find that a few
more packages will be installed, including gpm, the mouse driver. Make
sure that you do get a working configuration of this. On my machine
the default worked straight off.

Working as root, let us create a new directory to work in

mkdir /root/i810
cd /root/i810

Now you need to get one file 

I810Gtt-0.1-6.src.tar.gz 

in order to create a library file needed by the server. 
This is obtainable from 
http://support.intel.com/support/graphics/intel810/linuxsoftware.htm
, although you might need a web browser to get it. 
As Netscape needs the X server... 

Use another machine or another browser.

Get this file, and gunzip and untar it:-

gunzip I810Gtt-0.1-6.src.tar.gz

tar -xvf  I810Gtt-0.1-6.src.tar

This will give you a Makefile, a C file, an H file, and some other
stuff.
We need to run the makefile, 
but this relies upon access to the kernel source code, which is not
yet accessible.

When you install the kernel package this leaves a bzipped file called
kernel-source-versionguff in the directory /usr/src. Change to this
directory

cd /usr/src

and un-bzip the kernel package using the command

bunzip2 kernel-source-2.2.and-the-rest
 
This results in a tarball called kernel-source-version.tar.

Untar the tar ball with the command

tar -xvf kernel-source-version.tar

The i810 Makefile we obtained earlier needs files that depend upon
the configuration of the machine. These files are set up by another
makefile that has come with the kernel package. However the names of
the kernel directories depends upon the version of the kernel. 
To remove this version dependance it is assumed that the kernel stuff
is always in /usr/src/linux. To permit this create a symbolic link
with a command like 

ln -s /usr/src/kernel-source-2.2.15 /usr/src/linux

Now go to this directory

cd /usr/src/linux

and run the kernel makefile. There are several options, but the one I
usually use is

make menuconfig

You do not need to do any actual kernel configuration at this stage,
just choose Exit, and Yes to save your new kernel configuration file.

Return to the i810 directory.

cd /root/i810

(if you are using the same directories as me). 

Now you can compile the library file by just typing

make

If all is well, this should only take a moment and should create a
new file called agpgart.o

This is automatically installed in the right place by the command

make install

We are now ready to go.

There are two X configuration tools xf86config and  XF86Setup. 
I have only had sucess when using xf86config, at least for the first
time. Still as root, run it. Most of the stuff is obvious. The mouse 
should be set to Microsoft and its  
device to /dev/gpmdata, for it to match the GPM settings used above.

Enter the appropriate data for your display. When asked about
choosing a display card, choose to ignore the card list. When asked
for an identifier enter 

   i810. 

Then add whatever you want for the
manufacturer and model.

Choose suitable resolutions and allow the utility to write the
configuration file(s).

Now you should be able to use the command ``startx'' to start up the
X server.

If you get a grey screen, all is well. Get out of itb with the
keystrokes 

Once the system is working correctly you can use the graphical 
configuration command to tune your system. I found that I had to set
the RAMDAC
max speed to 100 (with the slider) and the ram to 4Mb.
Save the file, and that is it.
Hope this helps.

Re: apt-get dist-upgrade

[Ron Rademaker]

With potato the dist-upgrade will do the same as the normal upgrade,if you
upgrade to woody, after that you don't upgrade for a while, you might have
to do a dist-upgrade to really upgrade the system.

I like to think: don't expect a upgrade to go smoothly, just be happy if
it does...

(slink+0.75)->potato login problem

[Peter Allen]

Hi,
I've just upgraded from "slink with a lot of potato" to potato.
(apt-get -f dist-upgrade)
having rebooted to let everything settle in (everything looked fine
on boot), I then tried to login:
When I try I can type my username, it waits three seconds and
asks for my username again. (No password asked for and no login)

I have a rescue disk so I can much around with /
I'm just wondering whether its because I didn't have shadow passwords
installed, and for some reason potato decided to install them.

I tried moving /etc/passwd elsewhere, but no difference, and
I had a look in /etc/pam.d/* but got scared and ran away :-)

TIA

Re: S L O W mailserver

One way you could do this is to run tcpdump set to record packets with
either a source or destination adress of the ISP's mail server. Then check
your mail. The whole conversation will be recorded with timestamps. Use
tee to pipe the output to a file.

On the mail server check whether the MTA is started from inetd. If so,
change that to deamon. I notice that *my* exim is considerably slower
when run from inetd instead of deamon.
Otherwise check the logs for possible problems... (DNS lookups or
whatever)

If other services perform fine, it should really only be mail settings
that need some tweaking...

Aha!  That seems to have solved my compilation problems.  Thanks!

Shouldn't the kernel-headers package create this link, ya think?

This I don't understand.  It works with pon.  What is being done differently

Creating Potato CDs

[Salman Ahmed]

I have the debian-cd package installed. I edited the CONF.sh file.
But the documentation didn't indicate how to create a local mirror
of Potato .debs. The system I will be using to create this Potato
CD is a potato system that I installed over the Internet using the
boot disks.

So, what command(s) do I use to create a local mirror/directory structure
of all the latest and greatest potato .debs ?

Thanks.

problems with zmailer

[Cyanide Morgoth Calcuterm]

I have been using a combination of zmailer 2.99.51.52pre3-2 and
fetchmail 5.3.4-1 and I am getting some errors that indicate that apparently I 
need to change something relating to the DNS system but I can't figure out 
what (or even if I need it).
Since I am running a simple ppp connection I wanted to just gramy mail but 
this is not as easy as it first appears. I get the following errors when I run 
fetchmail
reading message 1 of 118 (1568 header octets)

Now the problem seems to be with the machine properly authenticating itself so 
that the stupid SMTP server will work but after sifting through the 
documentation at least for about an hour and trying to change files I am at a 
loss as to what to exactly change.
Is there any way to properly get this to work on a standalone machine with 
just ppp? What pracisely do I change?
This is my first time actually configuring my own machine for this type of 
thing so be gentle.

tcpdump might be usable for that.  The package name is, appropriately

Re: Netscape using exim/fetchmail?

[Andre Berger]

I have found out that I can point Netscape to /var/spool/mail/$USER by
setting the file type of the Incoming Mail server to "Movemail"
instead of POP3 (I use xemacs-21.1.10's movemail). So I can indeed use
fetchmail without having to set up a POP3 server myself.

Can I do alike for the Outgoing Mail server for the use with exim? How
does e.g. GNUs spool to exim and can I adopt this for Netscape?

Re: SSH again!

[Timothy C. Phan]

Hi all,

  Thanks for all the replies.  I believed that I got it to
  work somehow.  Need to redo the steps again to make sure.

  Still, do not quite understand how all this work:

1.  Can one steal/copy the *.pub keys and use it to logon?
2.  It seemed to me that if I do not remember/supply the
correct passphrase when run ssh, it would still 
allow me to log on using the regular account/password.
3.  Even if I do not have the *.pub keys and I could still
log on the server via the regular login/password!

  I thought that if not public key were given to the client,
  the client shall not be able to log on regardless whether
  the client has or does not have the regular login/password.
  Otherwise, what is the point of having the key or not having
  the key?

  Last, how do I generate the key from a windows/nt machine?
  I'm trying to login from an windows / nt as well.  Thanks!

impatient upgrage question

[balayo]

impatient upgrage question

Hey guys, 

I have a fresh, minimal slink on my box.  While it's still
minimal, I'd like to upgrade it to potato.  Should I go ahead
and wait till potato is released?

anyway, can someone run down the steps to upgrading?  What
should I put in sources.list?  I should be able to replace the
"frozen" in the url to "stable" whenever the time is right,
right?

thanks,

From:-line in Mutt

[Sven Burgener]

Hi

In my yet still very empty ~/.muttrc I have the following line:

my_hdr From: Sven Burgener <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Now, this doesn't seem to do what I want: the domain I have here at home
is made up and Exim doesn't like this when it's trying to deliver a mail
I previously created with mutt:


  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
SMTP error from remote mailer after MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
SIZE=1583:
host mail.bluewin.ch [195.186.1.68]:
501 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>... Sender domain must exist


So, what part of the header needs changing so that I can mail with mutt?

Thanks
Sven

The way I handled this same problem here was not to try and have mutt do the
change, but to have exim do the envelope rewrite.  The line in the
/etc/exim.conf that does this is:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] bcfrF

The username on the box here is mike, and I have exim thinking that the
domainname for my computer is earthlink.net ... which is the domainname of
my ISP.  I wasn't feeling too terribly original when I was doing the setup. 

That line is at the very end of my exim.conf - I'm not sure if it's
important where in the file that line is, but that's where the original file
had something similar.

problem with passwd/su

[Petr \[Dingo\] Dvorak]

Hi,

i just upgraded to potato from slink and i apparently forgot to do something
somewhere because now anything what has something to do with password checking
is sigfaulting, i would really appreciate if someone could help me to find
where did i screwed up, i'm really in a tight spot ;)

this is the file permissions on passwd and shadow files in /etc

-rw-r-1 root shadow   1300 Jun 16 10:23 shadow
-rw-r-1 root shadow   1327 Jun 16 10:23 shadow-
-rw-r--r--1 root root 2271 Jun 16 10:23 passwd
-rw-r--r--1 root root 2311 Jun 16 10:23 passwd-

this is what i got from passwd in gdb, there is no debug info but 'bt' may give
some idea ?

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

stuff what is affected is in.telnetd, su [if not root], getty/login and
probably others ..

all this makes me think that the format of /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow has
changed but the files wasn't converted ? if so, would you please tell me how to
convert/fix them ?

sorry for the long msg ;)

thanks in andvance,

Dingo.

Where do I change that?  A quick glance at this conf files shows no entry.

Why is "kaynjay" passed on rather than the other?

As I looked at the end of exim.conf just now, I saw the following:

# This rewriting rule is particularly useful for dialup users who
# don't have their own domain, but could be useful for anyone.
# It looks up the real address of all local users in a file

[EMAIL PROTECTED]${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\
{$value}fail} bcfrF

And /etc/email-addresses on my system now looks like this:

# This file contains email addresses to use for outgoing mail. Any local
# part not in here will be qualified by the system domain as normal.
#
# It should contain lines of the form:
#
#user: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
#otheruser: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
svn: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

So, I guess you might like to do it this way, too. :)

Thanks for getting me on the right way! This works perfectly here now.
Just what I needed!

libpam-modules, libpam-runtime and libpam0g are all version 0.72-8

this is my /etc/pam.d/other:

auth required   pam_unix.so
account  required   pam_unix.so
password required   pam_unix.so
session  required   pam_unix.so

just in case you need this too, the passwd package installed is version
19990827-20

Nevermind, I think I see the actual problem. Although, I have no idea how
you got things setup this way. Check this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED](6:06pm)-~]%locate libpam_misc.so.0
/lib/libpam_misc.so.0
/lib/libpam_misc.so.0.72

So you need to do this:

rm -f /usr/lib/libpam*.0*

Then tell me if it fixes things.

help with gdmchooser

[Bill Warner]

after going through large amounts of documentation
I can't seem to find anything on how to get gdmchooser
to work how I think I understand it.

I have never used or even seen it in use but I am guessing
I should be able to turn on my computer have X start with
gdm and be presented with a list of xdmcp hosts rather than a
straight login from gdmchooser that are available on the network.
Then click on one and be presented with gdmlogin or other login
depending on the system.  If this is way of let me know maybe
I am barking up the wrong tree.

I have searched far and wide for any howto.  Searching
news groups and mailing lists to no avail.  can you point
me to some documentation that can help me get basicly
what I want witch is what I described in the above paragraph.

Thanks much
Bill Warner

That is of course what I want to do. Actually, there is
no difference if its a dial-up standalone pc at work or my cable
connection at home.

The problem is: how do I know _which_ packages are new
and which do I have to fetch to update my standalone mirror
(without keeping a second mirror at the dial-up/home-cable
machine).

thanks,
Markus

The SCSI disk is where I want to "move" debian. Is it correct that I can do 
that simply with the following:

# dd if=/dev/hdb of=/dev/sda

My questions are as follows:

Is that really all and is it possible?
Will I then be able to create more partitions on the new disk for the space 
that is left?
How much adjusting will need to be done for the "new" debian to boot up fine? 
(/etc/fstab and/or what?)

Thanks a lot!
Sven

getting a proper mail setup?

[Cyanide Morgoth Calcuterm]

I was looking through the logs of my failed attempt of running fetchmail and 
zmailer and came across some relevent log entries generated from the client. 
What would I have to fix pray tell to force this to just pass the data that 
fetchmail grabs to my local inbox on my machine?
Since I use ppp and don't have a static ip specifing an IP seems pretty 
pointless.
Here is the data from /var/log/zmailer/smtpserver:

I assume that the problem has something do do with how the client is getting 
the data for my local SMTP server but I really can't figure out what's exactly 
wrong where.
Sorry if this is a duplicate but I assume that my first message bounced or 
something.

I also had a problem with it just use one of the mirrors instead. For the 
united States ftp.us.debian.org works well.

md5sum

[Andrew D. Dixon]

I'm trying to download the CD images for the 
slink distribution of debian and when I run
    
    md5sum -b 
binary-i386-1.iso
 
I get a checksum that doesn't match the one at 

 
    
sunsite.org.uk/packages/debian-cd/2.1_r4/i386/MD5SUMS
 
when I ran the rsync:
 
    rsync --verbose --progress 
--stats --block-size=8192
   
sunsite.org.uk::publick/packages/debian-cd/binary-i386.iso .
 
I got:
    packages/debian-cd/binary-i386-1.iso : No 
such file or directory
    client: nothing to do
 
Any suggestions??
 
Thanks,
Andy

The resolution would be bad but from what I have heard on the net and other 
channels it can be done.
