So anyway it starts up(eveything is fine there) and before it boots up a sort of dos comes up.. it asked to login, so i login either to root or my other one and it says something like this [Root]* or [Myname@Myname] and then i can type commands after that. now im assuming that there is a command to access the debian window and actually get into it, so do you know what it is? Please can you help, i want to get this up and running asap. thanks Andre

Issues with pulling out data from MySQL
Hi folks, NEWBIE here, I am having issues with pulling data out of several tables in MySQL. I am running debian 3.0.23 with MySQL 3.23.49, I can create the tables and view them through mysqladmin along with the data, put using the webform that I created with PHP4, only some of the fields of data are being displayed. Any idea at where I need to start to look for issues? Does this sould like a DB issue or a code issue with my webform? Any insight would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Re: Issues with pulling out data from MySQL
Hey Monique, Thank you much for the reply. The code is listed below, wasnt sure
if i should send it in a file or not, security purposes. Database is named
dtrackLog, all tables are present, and if i query from the command line, I can
see the data in the fields that I have previously entered. When attempting to
draw it out, none of it or one field is present. With the code below, I am not
seeing any data at this point. Let me know what you think and where I could
have some issues.
Regards,

Re: Issues with pulling out data from MySQL
Thanks Kirk for the insight. The DB is offline at the moment and can not be
reached except for people connected to my LAN, which might explain something.
I will google this evening for PHP injections, and I greatly appreciate the
direction. Is there anything that i should be currently looking for withing
the DB or my box to see if someone has corrupted my tables or anything else to
that matter?
Cheers,

Etch to Lenny, two kernel options now, why?
Hi there I recently moved to Lenny from Etch via dist-upgrade. Now I got two kernel options in grub available for boot. Doesn't a dist-upgrade mean that the old kernel is quite useless with the new system (with all its new libraries and stuff)? If so, how do I get rid off Etch's leftovers? Thanks a lot Andre -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Etch to Lenny, two kernel options now, why?
Ahhh, good thing to know. I think the problem was that with dist-upgrade all those new packages came along, and I was subconsciously thinking they were installed due to dependencies on the new kernel and thus wouldn't work with the old kernel. But apparently there are some packages (some of the new ones) that require the new kernel, as we have seen in that nvidia discussion. But of course, some failing services will not cause the system to fail.

Hi,
I am not familiar wit mod_unique_id but this seems more like an error
with your /etc/hosts or hostname setup.
Make sure your /etc/hosts has an entry similar to this:
127.0.0.1 localhost atheos
And your /etc/hostname has at least
atheos
in it. That should work and if it doesn't it could be something related
to unique_id.

You do not have to compile a new kernel for this, just try to append one of the following options in the boot prompt (edit lilo.conf or menu.list (grub)): pci=noacpi pci=biosirq acpi=off For me, test3 worked without any options, test4 required pci=noacpi and test5 would not work until I diabled ACPI (acpi=off).

It is very simple - you do not need any config. I just installed mutt
(from unstable). Then I call:
mutt -f pop://[EMAIL PROTECTED]
where xxx is my customer number from GMX (you can use both e-Mail
address and customer number as login but I guess E-mail won't work because
it has an @ inside). pop.gmx.net is your providers pop server.
Then you are asked for your password and see the contents of your mailbox.
Use arrow keys to move up and down, press D to delete a message. Q exits
mutt, it asks you to delete the marked ("D") messages. Just press enter
and you are done.
I do have a dial-up connection too, so this is my way to get rid of SWEN...
Greetings
Andre

If something went wrong with framebuffers: do not use it. In general if nobody has a better idea (see post of pigeon) I would suggest the following: Try to build a vanilla kernel with only those features you will need to boot: - Disable framebuffers (from kernel config, no vga parameter on boot prompt) - Disable ACPI, APM - Disable APIC - Disabe USB - Disable support for "special devices" like TV cards, ISDN cards etc. (searching for them might (?) confuse the PCI bus) Make sure you backup your old config so you know which options you wanted to set. > > However, I built these two kernels very differently.

Just edit your /etc/network/interfaces. It should look like this (I guess
your network interface on your laptop is eth0)
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static

It should already be installed because it is contained in standard
installation. Type "which ssh" if you get "/usr/bin/ssh" then ssh client
and server (same package) are installed.
> How to get sshd up and running?
During installation you were asked if ssh
server should be started. If you said no it wrote a file /etc/ssh/
sshd_not_to_be_run. If you remove this file ssh server should start during
bootup.
> Modify hosts.allow?
No. hosts.allow and hosts.deny are used by the inetd server who can pass
requests to other servers (e.g. telnetd). sshd is running standalone, so
you do not need hosts.{allow|deny}.
If you want to restrict access edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config and add/modify
the parameter ListenAddress and set it to the IP of your ethernet card.

To use it you have to understand unix file permissions: Every file has an owner and a group. The file permissions contains three parts: user (owner), group (members of the group) and other (everybody else). If you do a "ls -l" you will see perhaps the following permissions for a file: rwxrwxr-x The first three are the permissions for the user (he may read, write and execute), the second three are for group (same permissions), the last triple for other (may read and execute but not write). You use chmod like this: chmod o+w file That means that other (last triple) get write permissions. Or you might say chmod u+rwx file so user gets all permissions (he normally already has) and so on... chmod (u|g|o)+(r|w|x) file. To change permissions recursively add the -R parameter.

question about suggested fs for solid state flash disk
what is the suggested filesystem for a solid state flash drive, which appears to the os as an ide drive. The manufacturer warrants 1,000,000 writes per block minimum and the drive has 'active remap' technology which remaps bad blocks and is transparent to the user. As I understand, there is JFFS out there - would it be suitable in my case? How about cramfs/ramdisk combo? Any other fs that would be applicable? Also, since number/frequency of writes to disk should be minimized, how can I disable the swap space? My application is quite simple so there is no need for virtual memory (I hope :-) ) - I just need to write a few datafiles to disk. Will I still have to take care of moving certain files over to ramdisk, i.e. /var/* ? thanks in advance, A. __ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!

Evolution without X / PIM on server
Hi, can you run evolution without a gui? If not perhaps anybody has another idea: I have a palm as well as a mobile phone that can sync to evolution via multisync. I want to keep all data in sync and AFAIK evolution is the only solution in linux "everybody" can sync to (perhaps some kde applications but that would not help me either). I have a linux server (DNS, Firewall, NFS, etc.) running at home and would like to have a cantral calendar and contacts I can sync with - so evolution. But the server does not have X installed and I do not want it to. Is there any way to run evolution without X and all those gnome gui libraries? Or is there another way to have a central calendar, contacts and tasks repository that can sync to palm and other devices?

Smartd frequent attribute change
Hi, I am using the package smartsuite to monitor my server harddisks. Unfortunately, a Seagate Barracuda on /dev/hda keeps filling up my syslog with messages like the one attached below(1). Attribute 1 and 195 keep changing by 1/-1 almost every time smartd runs the check. When I run smartctl -v /dev/hda, the results(2) do not really mean anything to me me as they were like this right from when I put the harddisk in.

Problem resolving $(hostname) with DHCP
I've just moved to a site where they use DHCP with W95 clients.
I've managed to configure my (and a colleague's) good ol' Hamm to
insert in the network with dhcpcd 0.70-5 but some problems
remain :
>From To Operation Results
- - -- ---
Linux NT SMTPOK
Linux NT POP3OK
Linux AIXHTTPOK
Linux NT HTTPOK
Linux AIXftp ftp prints "connected to xxx" then hangs
Linux Linux ftp ftp prints "connected to xxx" then hangs
W95Linux ftp ftp prints "connected to xxx" then hangs
Linux W95pingOK
Linux Linux pingping hangs
Linux W95traceroute OK
Linux Linux traceroute traceroute hangs
Getting the IP address from the DHCP server seems to work fine.
The DNS server apparently contains only the addresses of the
various servers, not the addresses of the clients that get their
address through DHCP. In our /etc/hosts, there's only "127.0.0.1
localhost".
Note: my colleague (who uses the second Hamm machine) has told
me friday morning that he had solved the problem by putting
"3273.xxx.tm.fr" instead of "jf" in /etc/hostname. I've tried to
do a similar operation on my machine ("aym3" -> "3275.xxx.tm.fr")
but it did NOT solve the problem. Besides, on his machine, the
problem returned at noon ! (The numbers 3273 and 3275 are the W95
machine names assigned to our respective boxes by the local
sysadmin).
I've used tcpdump -s 500 -x udp port 67 or port 68 to see what's
happening during a ping. Results :
1) during a (successful) ping of a W95 box : no DHCP traffic.
Immediate response. Everything's fine.
2) during a (failed) ping of a Linux machine (from 3275.xxx.tm.fr
to 3273.xxx.tm.fr): 6 packets were captured. I'm showing only
the headers here, the dumps are too large.

X problems with two monitors
Hello all, i have two monitors (2x 1024x768) on my debian 3.0 with X 4.1.0.1 and WindowMaker 0.80.0. I configured the xinerama mode and most all works properly. When i set a scaled backround picture its being resized to 2048x768 but the right monitor shows the same "left part" of the picture that the left monitor shows. Through a transparent window like Eterm the picture on the right side is correct so if i fullscreen the window on the right side the full picture is correct. Has anyone else experienced this? How can i resolve this? Thanks for your help, Andre -- Yoda of Borg are we: Futile is resistance.

Here is what I have done last Sunday. I wanted to upgrade my old slackware that didn't work any longer since I had installed a new version of gcc without reading the manual first. I tried first to use the floppy distribution of Debian. It didn't work since it requires a fresh partition. I had nothing to backup my hd so I didn't want to format the partitions. I try insist and to go to further steps (configurind modules and so on) but all what I managed to do was beeing anable to boot again. So, I decided to install a redhat from december infomagic cdrom (the base system (which brings a 2.0.x kernel) and C and C++ developpement utilities (so that I could compile a new kernel and dselect needs C++ to be compiled.). Then I found a debian distribution 1.2.7 from march pht mo'linux. I took the source of dpkg compile and install it. To be able to do that I had to comment the part of the makefile which call debiandoc-sgml (which was not installed). Then I started to dselect install the base distribution. May be for first installation following the amount of spare disk you have you should dselect emacs (which debian puts in /usr/lib/ rather than in /usr/local/share so that you could have twice the same version of emacs : - installation of ldso was ok - then I went in a circular dependency pb : (libc5 depends on dpkg which depends on libc5). I quit dselect and try to use dpkg --force-depends to install dpkg (it needed sysvinit first to have access to /etc/rc0.d which dkpg needs). Finally I got dpkg.deb installed but it didn't work (dselect was no longer able to find an access method, none were available). So I reinstall dpkg from the source distribution (Now it is recorded as installed so that depencies works and it is working). - i went back on dselect and went on installing : libc was ok ... after bash was installed dselect which probably use /bin/sh didn't work. So I quit dselect and made ldconfig -v and dselect worked again. But it started installation from beginning. In order to speed installation up I made dpkg --configure --pending to configure already unpacked packages and dslect again. Installation was ok with sometimes need for ld-config or dpkg --configure. Then I had to modify /etc/ld.so.conf and /dev/mouse and I had a slackware system patched with a debian one. I wouldn't dare saying I'm using a real debian system since I'm not sure that already existing software might not conflict with new installed debian software. And it brings to ask a question : How can I sweep my hd get rid of old files ? I've already made a perl script based on locate which find duplicated files (for exemple /usr/bin/emacs and /usr/local/bin/emacs). The result of my script looks like : emacs 96/8/6 /usr/bin/emacs emacs 96/9/28 /usr/local/bin/emacs Where the date is the date of last modification of files. Now I need to know the list of files installed by dpkg. Is there a debian command which could tell this. Sorry for being so long. Hope this could help.

Replacing Exim with self compiled qmail
Hi, I have a minimal Debian install with an Exim in broken configuration. In addition, I have installed qmail which is running fine. Is there a way to uninstall Exim and have dpkg recognize my qmail installation as the system mailer so that I can install other packages that rely on an mta? The qmail-src and var-qmail packages are not an option btw. Cheers, Andre Marenke -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Request for window manager recommendations
Ultimately this is one of those personal taste type things.. Whatever works for you is your best option. Maybe try a few and see what works for you - Original Message - From: Adam Funk To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Sent: Tuesday, June 14, 2005 10:07 AM Subject: Re: Request for window manager recommendations Jochen Schulz wrote: A window manager is a program that just "manages windows". It gives applications an area on the screen where they can be displayed and most often the WM draws a border around it, gives it a nice title and enables the user to do things with these windows - put one on the foreground, minimize another one etc. Very often window managers come with some kind of a panel, virtual desktop support and some kind of application launcher (a "start menu" or icons on the panel), but strictly speaking, this is exceeding the task of a minimal WM. Desktop environments (KDE, Gnome. Xfce) do far more than that. They come with a file manager, draw the background with pixmaps and icons, they do some work behind your back to easily handle removable storage or enable drag'n drop. They come with "control centers" to do system administration and generally give the user a simplified, cleaned up view on their system. Applications supporting the DE all look the same and share a lot of routines to do common tasks. DEs also provide applications with a way to register themselves for a filetype which they can handle, which is then reflected when using the DE's file manager and so on... Of course, this list is not complete. Interesting, thanks. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Mouse : can't locate module char-major-10
Hello All, I am new to Linux and of course new to the Debian distribution. Recently I tried to install X on my box using the vga16 server. When started, the server immediately die with a message "Cannot open mouse : (no such device). Because X is a rather complex package, I tried to troubleshoot my mouse problem using gpm. The result was the same as with X, now the message is gpm : /dev/psmouse : No shuch device. Because psmouse is a symbolic link a also tried psaux and because it still didn't work, I even tried /dev/msmouse and /dev/inportbm (in fact this is a non-sense because my mouse is a PS-2 style). The problem is not the mouse hardware, because under Windows95, the same mouse on the same PC work ok. It is discovered as a PS/2 compatible mouse using interrupt 12. The computer is a Gateway 2000 P100. I think they use an Intel Alladin mother-board, but I am not completly sure. The mouse is a Microsoft "Mouse Port Compatible 2.0" I had also a look at /proc/devices and I didn't find any mouse device there. Also /proc/interrupts do not show any entry for interrupt 12. Finally I found that every time a started X or gpm, I got an entry in daemon.log : "modprobe : can't locate module char-major-10 So it seems that I need to load a module for my mouse. In /usr/lib/module_help/modules I found that modules should exist for psaux and mouse, however I didn't find any psaux.o or mouse.o on my system. Now I am stuck. I only see two possibilities : 1)I really need to load psaux.o and mouse.o; but where can I found those files? 2)The mouse driver is build in the kernel and for some reason the mouse is not detected at boot-up. How can I force the mouse configuration? I have really no idea which of those two possibilities is correct. As I am new to Linux maybe I made a stupid mistake. All the software was loaded from the stable subtree of the distribution. Kernel is 2.0.6. Any help would be appraciated.

Re: stopping ssh attacks
Two things, allow SSH access only from the netblock from which you want the machine accessed (This helps but doesn't solve the problem) Second is switch from password auth to paswordless RSA Auth, this renders brute force attacks pretty much useless.

Re: Remote administration of a server
Once again, RSA auth for SSH works well, since there is no password a dictionary attack won't work, make the key a 1024 bit or 2048 bit ket and it'll take an extreme amount of time for any would be intruder to get past this. Of course you'll need to get the public key to yourself when you change keys, which should happen on a regular basis, as would password changes. Getting the key to yourself is relatively easy too, it can be copied through SCP to your workstation and into the relevant file in your home (unix) or in the dir where your ssh client lives (windows) - Original Message - From: Mitja Podreka To: debian-user@lists.debian.org Sent: Friday, June 17, 2005 10:05 AM Subject: Re: Remote administration of a server Steve Garcia wrote: You're pretty much correct -- the only really big problem is if something gets so wedged that you have to hit the reset button.

This is not a problem. If you have a fixed IP in China, it would be a good idea to restrict ssh access to the server so that only that IP can connect.
