I am not so concerned that people raise this question *on* a mailing
list. What is worrying however is that this question *is raised* at
all by those who are positively disposed to Free/Libre and Open Source
Software.
Imagine talking about GNU/Linux (or, more often just 'Linux', the
term popularised by the media, just like how it has converted the term
'hacker' into something negative) without talking about issues like
freedom and the people (and their motivations) who started it all.
There are some networks -- in India too -- which would like to pretend as
if GNU doesn't exist, Richard Stallman comes out of some fictional book,
and that Debian is a fiction of our imagination.
Their argument is: we don't want politics.
This (the claim of wanting to steer clear of 'politics') is, one could
argue, a political stand in itself. By avoiding issues like freedom, just
to make this campaign more palatable to business or the mainstream, we are
taking a stand which has strong implications for everyone.
Any newcomer to GNU/Linux out there wanting to get to know more about
RMS, I would recommend reading his biography (Free As In Freedom: Richard
Stallman's Crusade for Free Software). I'm not sure how RMS views this
biography, because in the journalistic style, it tries to be less
hagiographical, and in parts critical of RMS, the person and the leader of
the Free Software Movement. Nonetheless, IMHO it captures the spirit of
the times fairly well... at least it helped me understand what shaped
arguably the most collaborative project in humankind. --FN

Writing with a difference ... on what makes *the* difference
Announcing the release of Ayttm 0.2.1
You can get it at http://www.nongnu.org/ayttm/
Ayttm is a fork of Everybuddy, and aims to, at first, address its
problems:
* stability: Ayttm should not segfault when you use it.
* intuitivity: Ayttm should be almost instantly usable by my mother ;)
* simplicity: almost useless prefs should be hidden, reserved to
"advanced" users, and things have to work without wondering what this
or that will produce.
* (internet) accessibility: Ayttm's CVS and releases should be available
24/7. That's why it's on savannah.
Ayttm is maintained by Colin Leroy.
* Important notes about this release
- There has been a name change. People trying out Ayttm for
the first time do not care, but people upgrading from an
older version should do the following:
make uninstall (in the old version source)
mv ~/.yattm ~/.ayttm
cd ~/.ayttm
perl -pi -e 's/yattm/ayttm/g;s,sounds/ayttm,ayttm/sounds,g' prefs menurc
* Bugfixes
- code cleanups
- some memleaks plugged
- some segfaults fixed
- Decoding bugs (Utf8 messages in Yahoo!, Utf8
friendlynames in MSN) fixed
- Default focuses should be in the first text field of
each window
- Conversation restoring improved
- Default browser changed to mozilla (old code didn't work)
- No more log file overwrite when you rename a contact
- Font strangenesses (size reset to defaults, ...) fixed
* New Features
- Name change :)
- Bring Ayttm in front in case of duplicate launch
- Better lists handling in MSN
- Group handling in MSN
- Check account validity when adding a friend
- MSN smileys are back, copyright free this time
- Chatrooms improvements: multiline edit, smiley selector,
timestamping, Typing... status support, * and protocol in
window title, nicer default name
- Ispell dictionnary specifiable
- Crash handler (enabled by default) - pops the stacktrace up
if Ayttm segfaults

Ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny.
Hi all,
I was going through the mailing archive of some site and found the
queries regarding blocking yahoo and msn messenger using iptable. There
is a small script which I have written to block the yahoo,msn and rediff
messenger using iptable. I thought to share it with you all as it might
help some one on the list to block them.
u can download the script from http://www.linzsystem.com/iptmess.tgz
Took around a week to compile this huge list of servers and it
definitely works

Ilug-Bom now has it's own IRC channel. We are called #ilug-bom and are
located on irc.freenode.net - Home of many popular open source projects'
channels.
To learn more about IRC go to http://www.irchelp.org.
For the ignorant people, IRC stands for Internet Relay Chat. It's a medium
which offers the opportunity of Real Time communication between a large
number of entities - Basically, the biggest collection of chat rooms.
To connect to IRC you need a client like X-Chat, BitchX, KvIRC, mIRC(for
Windows users) etc. To connect to freenode type
/server irc.freenode.net
Once you are connected, type
/join #ilug-bom
That should get you into the channel.
If you have a constant connection to the net, please come and stick around,
as we would like to see this # grow.
Hope to see you all there.

Linux is like living in a teepee. No Windows, no Gates, Apache in the
house.
How do I find out whether the 'mgetty' binary installed from its rpm
is compiled with -DAUTO_PPP or not? Or going further and
generalizing, how do I find the flags that were used to compile a
binary?
I have configured my machine as a dialin server. Currently, mgetty
accepts the username and then calls /bin/login to accept and
authenticate the password from the peer. But I want pppd to
authenticate the peer rather than /bin/login. So mgetty should call
pppd rather than /bin/login. The file
/etc/mgetty+sendfax/login.config has the option for doing this. But a
comment in the file says that mgetty has to be compiled with
-DAUTO_PPP option for it to work. I suspect that the currently
installed mgetty binary isn't compiled with -DAUTO_PPP because even
after enabling /AutoPPP/ in login.config, the remote client still gets
a bash prompt after authenticating which indicates /bin/login being
called.
I read the installed mgetty documentation but it doesn't say anything
about the AutoPPP option being used while compiling or not.

i wud first of all like 2 tell u that i'm new 2 linux & have just started
using it full time. so i request u all 2 plz forgive my so many questions in
the past few mails.
i don't want 2 give the impression, that i'm a good 4 nothing guy with no work

of very trivial nature & will help me a lot in getting a strong foothold of
my newly discovered OS.
my doubt is that i have an epson 480 color stylus printer & i don't know how 2
change its cartridge.

That's exactly the point!
If you want performance, then C/C++ or Assembly(!) is better.
But, that takes a long time to code and debug. Whereas, doing
things in a more higher-level abstracted language makes development
and deployment easier. So, basically the choice depends on the
requirements.
You might want to look at the different scripting languages available
out there and decide which one to use. It's not very difficult to
implement a solution like this one. Why, maybe you could try out
the Korn Shell - it has support for regex, sockets and other goodies
built-in!
