[gentoo-user] Zoneminder

Hello, Portage lists version 0.9.12. The Zoneminder web site says this version was issued in Jun3 2003. Version 1.21.0 as being available since March 2003. Is it safe to assume that Zoneminder has been orphaned (i.e. no maintainer)? How would I know if a package is not being maintained? Bugzilla

Re: [gentoo-user] NFS weirdness

I misdiagnosed the problem. My wife's computer (blossom) is running RH9 and she gets faster DNS resolution than baby does. Our ISP assigns all addresses (including DNS) via DHCP. Her /etc/resolv.conf file was being updated by her dhcp client. I emerged dhcpcd and ran it. The problem came from

[gentoo-user] Setting up a route through a point-to-point interface

Scenario: using vtun to build a Lan-to-Lan VPN. One end FreeBSD, one end Linux. On the BSD box I can set up a route directly through the tun0 device without having to assign it an IP address, like this: ifconfig tun0 up mtu 1450 -arp route add 192.168.10.0/24 -interface tun0 and it works just

Re: [gentoo-user] NFS weirdness

I do use static IPs. In my Linux machines. I don't know how to set up static IPs in Windows. bullet, baby and blossom have static IP addresses 192.168.1.2, 192.168.1.3 and 192.168.1.4 respectively, but the DNS information from the ISP changes, so I need a DHCP client to update my /etc/resolv.con
