well, that's the theory, but how often the reality? honestly quite a
lot as I run sid on all my non-publicly facing machines and have no
realy issue ever, but that doesn't mean it won't happen.

I really agree with you. There is no reason it should happen in this
case other than someone must have made a mistake. Or (not knowing the
specifics of udev changes) someone somewhere made a decision that
there weren't going to be any eth0's anymore. My sid laptop renames
its lan from eth0 to eth1 during the initrd phase. Then after
pivot-root, when init is in charge, the wireless interface gets found
and initially designated eth0, but gets renamed to eth2. I don't know
why this is, but there it is.

again we are in agreement. In the effort to make some sort of
automated networking configuration, which I don't disagree with in
concept, things have gone horribly wrong with network manager,
IMO. With NM and friends around, it is impossi ble to maintain
networking the old way and if it doesn't work then NM way, then you're
screwed. its a little frustrating.



anyway, I didn't mean to offend, and I apologise.

This has also been posted in the security forum. I appologize for the
duplication, but I thought it might get more visibility here.



I am having a problem getting rssh to set up and use the chroot path that I
have identified. I am able to sftp or scp in without any problems. However,
I am able to change to the actual root of the file system essentially
escaping the chroot structure.


It doesn't appear that the rssh_chroot_helper is being run. I'm not seeing
anything been logged in either syslog or messages as to what is happening.



If anyone has any ideas or can point me in the right direction, I'd
appreciate it.


Please let me know what further information will help.

That's so frustrating.=20



So, maybe skip the ssid method. instead use iwconfig's "ap" option
with the MAC address of the ap you want. Grab the mac address from
windows and just use it.

No, I believe that the 64-bit kernel + 32-bit userland is a valid option
in Debian.  That's why there's a 64-bit kernel in i386.

What kernel was installed?  



As soon as you login, type


$ uname -a



If the system is still up, send us:



cat /etc/apt/sources.list



You could use the install CD as a rescue system, choose "run a command
on the rootfs" (or whatever it says); it runs your command chrooted to
the system.  Try aptitude there (thus with the installer's kernel).  If
that works, do a uname -a there and notice any difference.



Needless to say, what you're experiencing shouldn't happen under any
circumstances with Etch (stable).


Do you need help?X

Doug.

Yeah, redirects sort of mess up exim. That's why I would use:



        *:[username]:[PW]



Is your login user-name really hartford-hwp.com?

I would stick to the name they gave you.  Otherwise, exim will try to
contact that box directly and that box is likely configured to only
acccept stuff from smtp.hardford-hwp.com

Is your pop-server username hartford-hwp.com as well?

inetd.conf is for incoming ports.  Opening a port in the sense they mean
is opening a port in your own firewall to let exim call out on port 587.
The standard port per /etc/services would be 465.



So, do you have a firewall?

There is no such file as /usr/sbin/initd to restart.


Can we help you?X

However, there is /etc/init.d/exim4 restart.

  This is no longer the case, apt-get can do a similar thing.  For
 example upon my current system:



skx@vain:~$ apt-get install less


Reading package lists... Done


Building dependency tree


Reading state information... Done


less is already the newest version.


The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  libjpeg-progs jhead


Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 13 not upgraded.

Hi,

I am new to Debian but basically I have it running, with at least two=20
problems.  The first is every time I reboot, I have to run alsaconf=20
before I can get any audio.  I haven't noticed any place where I should=20
save anything.  Basically, I just bring up a terminal window, become=20
root, type alsaconf, follow the screens and eventually it tells me id is=20
done and to enjoy using it.  Rhythmbox, for instance, then works=20
perfectly until I reboot.  Then I have to run aslaconf again.

The 2nd problem is with printing.  I have my printer connected to another=
=20
computer on my home network that is running samba.  On the debian=20
computer, I choose Desktop->Administration->Printing and Add Printer.  I=20
then follow all the screens (for windows printer (smb)) and it appears=20
everything is fine. It sees my network and the computer the printer is=20
connected to and all seems well until I get to the last screen.  When I=20
hit Apply, this windows closes, and only the original Add printer window=20
is open with no new printer icon.  I am not sure what is happening here. =
=20
Other computers on my home network print fine through the samba server.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Yes, that is my username. So you are recommending: 

        *:hartford-hwp.com:<PW>

But can a wildcard replace the name of the server like this?

OK, I'll revert as you suggest.

Pop sercver is pop.hartford-hwp.com; smtp server is smtp.hartford-hwp.com

I reverted to port 25, but no luck


> So, do you have a firewall?


This may be my problem: I have a hardware firewall. However, if I'm
using port 25 for smtp, wouldn't my firewall let it through? Is the
fact that it's now SSL require a change in my hardware firewall?

Ouch. I was led astray here. Running the command didn't have cause
feedback, which I took as good news. I'm now using # invoke-rc.d exim4
restart , which I assume does the same as #  /etc/init.d/exim4 restart

My problem may be my hardware firewall, not so much the port, but the
protocol for SSL SMTP smtp or smtps?).

Well, drupal in stable is old, normally you want the newest and stable,
you can find in etch the stable but not the new. That's maybe, and maybe
there've not been anyone taking care good enough of the package.
