I have uploaded version 0.07 of my logtools package to unstable which
includes the new clfdomainsplit program to split a web log file containing
data from large numbers of domains into separate files.
This program has a limit that it can only split log files for as many domains
as it can open f
I am in the middle of writing a program to split CLF format log files (as
produced by Apache and most other web servers) based on the domain name of
the server. The idea is that log data for http://www.coker.com.au/ will go
into the file coker.com.au and log data for http://www.workbenelux.nl/

I have compiled a copy of the latest LILO for Potato. It is available on
http://www.coker.com.au/lilo/ . There is no Packages file as I don't plan to
update this enough to make it necessary to use apt for it.
This package is for people who use Potato but who have newer SCSI
controllers, a Rei
Is there a program in Debian to dump the fdisk data to a file?
I would like to do `fdisk-dump /dev/hda > /etc/hda.fdisk` so that if the
partition table gets corrupted I can do
`fdisk-restore /dev/hda < /etc/hda.fdisk` . Is there any software in Debian
that allows such operations?

More than 3 years ago someone filed a bug report that LILO doesn't support
booting from SCSI drives when there is an IDE drive in the system.
I am not able to test this as I don't own any SCSI devices, and the person
who originally reported the bug hasn't responded to the last email about the

Is anyone interested in running LILO on LVM file systems?
There is a patch on the LVM mailing list which requires kernel 2.4.2 with the
latest LVM patches. I'm interested in preparing an LVM package (which will
probably be too experimental for unstable even) for interested people to test.
