IIRC, Samba can be picky about the network and netmask. Are you sure that
you wouldn't use this line?

interfaces = lo, 192.168.230.

Knoppix OR Slackware on USB thumb drive

RIP-Linux, which is designed to be used for recovery, is built on
Slackware. There are instructions and IIRC a shell script to make it
bootable from a USB device. It's also easily customizable, if you're
familiar with Slackware.

automount - 2 directories / 1 map, is it possible?

I have used rdist to distribute automount config files and then
launch a Makefile on changed ones. Then I built knowledge
of hosts into the Makefile. When I did it my Makefile had
sections for Solaris, HPUX, AIX, Irix and so on instead of
using the hostname but the principle remains.

I've since switched from rdist to rsync but haven't needed to
trigger a Makefile on each host since making the switch. I
haven't checked if rsync can do that.
 

If all mounts from the host are effected you could also hack
/etc/inet/hosts and use the same name. Definite brute force
and ignorance approach. Very effective at times when it works.

upgrade to kernel 2.6 broke console font mapping?

That was in fact the case, but changing it didn't fix the problem. I
tried returning the console to
"ascii" mode (leaving the locale set to "C"), and also keeping the
console in utf-8 while setting
the locale to en_US or something like en_US.utf8 (can't remember
precisely and I'm not at the
machine right now). Somewhere on the net, someone mentioned trying
en_US.iso8859-1
or similar, but that turned out not to be available according to the
output of the locale command.

Permissions, permissions. Oh, no. Not SELinux again? See this comic
for something close to my experience with SELinux:

How to install Debian CD#2 ~ CD#21?

Posted: 29 Aug 2008 11:32 PM PDT

J.H.Kim <com>: 

You don't. Consider them repositories of stuff you could install if
you wanted. As Bill mentions, use apt-cdrom to declare them all to
the pkg-ing system.

Now, you can "aptitude update && aptitude install gkrellm" (for
instance). It'll tell you which CD to to put in your reader,
depending on which package you want to install (BTW, you won't need
"update" again until you get new CDs or a net connection).
 

What are you using to post? Mozilla/Firefox/Iceweasel, or
slrn/tin/elm? Can you find error messages in the system log files
(/var/log/*)? How do you know it's not posted?

Consider subscribing to debian.org (see
http://lists.debian.org), and subscribing to bofh.it
(the gatekeeper of the mail to news gateway, linux.debian.user). In
fact, not doing that last one is very likely your problem. See
http://lists.bofh.it/options/linux-gate

How do I add a PERL module to an FC4 box?

Nico, the information you provided here is great. I wish I had it when
I was in a rush to solve my problem, before I used CPAN to install the
desired module.

Then again, the CPAN method proves to be working and if I ever need to
run 'yum' again, I will use the information you provided here. For
now, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it..." :-)

Thanks,
Sam

No updates for Fedora 9?

I just checked. The new Fedora key is now on the PGP server. FWIW, I
got the key index from http://fedoraproject.org/keys under the heading
"Currently used keys." It's also eventually supposed to be in a new
fedora-release package signed with the old key.

The Fedora packages "released" yesterday still aren't available for
download. There was an announcement (dated yesterday, but didn't show
up in email until this morning) that they're still waiting for the
mirrors to sync all the old packages with their new signatures.
