Re: Desktop Weather for Linux?

2003-06-15 Thread Skip Morrow
I use a program called root-tail which is nice for monitoring /var/log/messages. It just puts the text right on your desktop. You could just as easily write a script to put whatever forecast text you want into a file and have root-tail put it on your desktop. http://freshmeat.net/projects/root-t

gman vs. yelp

2003-06-14 Thread Skip Morrow
I was looking for a good man page viewer for X when I started playing with gman and yelp. Upon closer review, I saw that gman was nothing more than a link to yelp. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /usr/bin/which gman /usr/bin/gman [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls /usr/bin/gman -l lrwxrwxrwx1 root root

You could also just do a netstat -tapn and look for an open port 1080. nmap is a port scanner for linux (and a pretty good one at that) Skip On Fri, 2003-06-06 at 10:35, Robert Canary wrote: > hmmm, I never seen nmap before, what is it? > > Jonathan Bartlett wrote: > > > > I'm sure most of you

ps, top and free

2003-06-05 Thread Skip Morrow
Quick and dirty: Why don't the memory usages reported for each program from 'ps -aux' and/or 'top' (even after pressing the "H") add up to the totals as being reported by 'top' and/or 'free'? Try it and you'll see what I mean. Skip -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTE
