Are you using rawrite or dd, or just a straight copy? A straight copy will
never work, but a rawrite (from dos) or dd (under a unix) will do the job

You want the HOSTTYPE to say i386, since your machine IS a 386-compatible
chip. :)
As for that environment variable, you could parse the output of:
$ uname -rm
2.0.36 i686
And build it yourself... :)

Only a guess -- but make a crontab entry that runs every five minutes that

Tom, if you throw things in /usr/local, apt (as well as dpkg, dselect,

probably supports --prefix=/usr/local -- that doesn't mean it will be

You could use symlinks to move your email folders around a bit -- so mutt
only sees a symlink to them. The mutt on my redhat server (blasted...:)
doesn't lstat() the symlinks, it just stat()s them. This might be the thing

I got the impression that Richard was looking for a nicer way of doing this;
if linux is going to be wierd about its network interfaces, then perhaps
there is a nice way to circumvent it without too much work. :)

My ssh2 (installed from non-us.debian.org) and ssh have the value of "20" --
which is what nearly everything else has. Heheh.
I have inserted my ssh startup script as well (except I deleted the "exit 0"
near the top of the thing -- I don't want ssh if I have ssh2, but it is
easier on the packagema

Well, programs that init starts normally ARE daemons.

Aaron, it isn't the fault of windows, nor the fault of linux. If I recall,
there is a FAQ at www.winamp.com that describes this situation. Basically,
your PCI bus gives the cycles to the videocard when it needs them, and lets
the chips fall where they may -- which means skipping during audio playba
The esound enlightened sound daemon offers this sort of thing in software. I
think the commercial version of oss/linux (www.opensound.org, right?) offers
this ability too. And, if you have a nice new pci soundcard that does this
stuff natively, the proper drivers should make it go quite nicely, but
Look for proftpd.

Manuel, try:
apt-get update;
apt-get install telnetd
Of course, this assumes your setup is recent enough for apt-get to work. If
your box is an older box based on an earlier version of debian, this might
not work -- so try using dselect with your distribution CDs to find the
telnetd package.
And,
Benak, try looking in your /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny file to see
if you are denying access in there... also check output from:
ipfwadm -l -I
ipfwadm -l -O
ipfwadm -l -F
(anyone know the equivalent ipchains commands?)
Also, try checking the output of "route" to ensure that your routing
If memory serves me, putting the package on hold in dselect should be
enough. (= key)
