Hi Friend,
I was going thru some article and came across file /etc/securetty followed by /etc/usertty. I was able to restrict console logins to root user thru /etc/securetty but wanted to know the use of /etc/usertty if any could help me out.
Also friends, came across a command "chattr" thru which u can set flags to ur file by which they cant be deleted even by root user or can be recovered after deletion or even can be accessed in append only mode, good command to be remembered security point of view as this settings can be used on logfiles.
Regards,
-Sampat.

Linux Bangalore/2003 announced
India's biggest annual Open Source event to take place on December 2/3/4,
2003
Bangalore 19-Nov-2003: Linux Bangalore/2003, India's biggest and
most popular Linux and Open Source event, will take palce at Bangalore on
December 2/3/4, making it the third year that this event has been organised.
What differentiates this event from commercial events (that are typically
driven by vendors) is that this event is completely conceived, organised and
driven by the Open Source community, focussing on technology talks and a
technology expo.
Linux Bangalore/2003 continues to work on the basis of its low-cost model -
delegates pay only Rs.300 (US$6.50 - Rs.500/US$11 for people who do not
register on the website) to have access to all the talks and subevents. The
registration fee includes lunch and snacks and a conference T-Shirt. The
event itself is funded entirely by sponsorships and sale of expo space.
If someone would think that low-cost means low quality - think again! Over
the three days, this event will feature almost 100 talks from well known
Open Source technologists such as Miguel de Icaza (Mono/Ximian), Rasmus
Lerdorf (PHP), Nat Friedman (Ximian), Jeremy Zawodny (MySQL/Yahoo), Bdale
Garbee (Debian), Harald Welte (iptables) and others, along with a variety of
well known community and industry speakers, including Gopi Garge, Kishore
Bhargava, Atul Chitnis, Sirtaj Singh Kang, Naba Kumar, Sudhakar 'Thaths'
Chandrasekharan and others.
And to end each day, the organizers have planned the screening of a movie, a
fusion music concert by the renowned fusion group Laya Taranga, and a rock
concert by the well known group Phenom.
The event, which consistently has drawn thousands of developers,
implementors and enthusiasts from across the world, is sponsored by Linux
and Open Source supporters HP, Novell and Exocore, with a number of industry
and government bodies endorsing the event as well.
Bangalore, already the IT capital of India, is quickly becoming a hothouse
for Open Source development, with companies like Ximian/Novell, IBM, HP and
others setting up development centres there.
About Linux Bangalore/2003:
Linux Bangalore/2003 is India's premier Linux/OpenSource event. This annual
event brings together professionals and enthusiasts from India, Asia and the
rest of the world for a three day Applied Technology Conference.

Then i write a program and save it as say xyz.c .
Now i start windows and want to access the file xyz.c . Is it possible?
One way is to use internet and mail it from linux to my email account in say yahoo and read it in windows.
Is there any other way?

Why not mount your windows FAT 32 partition in linux.
Save xyz.c in it.
When you boot into windows the file will be avalabe
in your windows drive.

Hi,
Recently started using XEmacs for most of my coding work. The USP was
the "compile" command that lets you use C-` to cycle through errors
from the compiler-generated messages.
But it seems XEmacs invokes "sh" for the purpose, although
~/.emacs_bash exists, and SHELL is set to "/bin/bash". It invokes bash
correctly when I use "M-x shell".
The problem is that my Makefile's depend on a lot of environment
variables that are set using my .bashrc But sh invoked in
non-interactive mode will not load .profile, which is the equivalent
file.
I need a way to make sure that XEmacs uses /bin/bash when compiling so
that all the necessary environment variables are set from my .bashrc
