GPG Symmetric Encryption: Non-interactively
by Anshul Gupta 14 Apr '04

14 Apr '04

Hi All, Can I do symmetric encryption non-interactively using gpg? gpg -batch -ca doesn't seem to work as the key cannot be provided in some file or command line. Tried writing a expect script, #!/usr/bin/expect -d -f # set timeout -1 set send_slow {1 .1} set send_human {.1 .3 1 .05 2} spawn gpg -q -o message.enc -ca message match_max 100000 expect -exact "Enter passphrase: " send -- "ab\r" expect -exact "\r \rRepeat passphrase: " send -- "ab\r" expect eof This script works sometimes, hangs mostly after first/second passphrase has been sent. Tried "send -s/h" but they also fail. What's wrong? Am I missing something? Also if the expect script can read the input from stdin and write encrypted output to stdout, it would be great. Any help/suggestion is appreciated. I would summarize to the list. Thanks, Anshul

Your morning's cuppa FLOSS. ############ #For the Embedded Folks ############ IT Investor's Journal: Why Openwave is getting deep into Linux Monday April 12, 2004 - [ 06:21 PM GMT ] Topics: Linux By: Melanie Hollands Melanie Hollands contends in a story about mobile-device middleware maker Openwave that over the next few years the WindowsCE mobile development folks might be surprised how quickly they are losing projects to Linux. Read on at ITMJ. Read more at IT Manager's Journal - http://management.itmanagersjournal.com/management/04/04/12/1818212.shtml ############# #A wonderful essay by RMS : Must Read ############# Free but shackled: The Java trap Topics: Java , Programming By: Richard M. Stallman Editor's note: Stallman's timing with this piece is impeccable, and it dovetails nicely with the questions raised by Javalobby's Rick Ross in this article. If your program is free software, it is basically ethical--but there is a trap you must be on guard for. Your program, though in itself free, may be restricted by non-free software that it depends on. Since the problem is most prominent today for Java programs, we call it the Java Trap. http://programming.newsforge.com/programming/04/04/07/2021242.shtml?tid=105… ############## #Embedded News : Holy Grail!!! ############## Real-Time OS Vendor Calls Linux 'Insecure' For Defense Monday April 12, 2004 - [ 06:35 PM GMT ] Topics: Linux , Security , Software , Operating Systems A storm has erupted in the embedded community, with real-time operating systems house Green Hills charging that Linux is fundamentally insecure and wide open to security breaches by "foreign intelligence agencies and terrorists." http://www.techweb.com/wire/story/TWB20040412S0001 ############## #Supercomputers & GNu/Linux ############## Cray CTO: Linux clusters don't play in HPC By Jan Stafford, Editor 12 Apr 2004 | SearchEnterpriseLinux.com SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Linux clustering was touted as the next big thing by many vendors last week at ClusterWorld Conference & Expo 2004. But supercomputer vendor Cray Inc. scoffed at the notion of putting Linux clusters in the high-performance computing (HPC) category. In fact, Cray showcased a system -- Cray XD1 with Active Manager -- that will compete in performance and price with some Linux clusters upon its release.. http://searchenterpriselinux.techtarget.com/originalContent/0,289142,sid39_… ####################### #Migration : @ Work with Gnu/Linux ####################### Migrating from Windows to Linux, Part 1: Crashes, viruses and headaches.

Cringely When I wrote last week about my conclusion that the legal system -- any legal system -- is unequipped to change Microsoft's monopolistic behavior, I had no idea that within 24 hours, Sun Microsystem would be throwing in the towel, trading its so-called principles for $1.95 billion in cash. So I guess I was right. Only now, a few thousand readers out there expect me to blithely produce an answer to the problem of what to do to bring Microsoft into the civilized world. Well, I say it can't be done. http://www.pbs.org/cringely/pulpit/pulpit20040408.html -- ( >- -< ) /~\ __ Scaling FLOSS in the __ /~\ | \) / Enterprise : trevor.w(a)pvision.biz \ (/ | |_|_ \ Call Now: 9820349221 / _|_| \____________________________________/

Want to know how Gmail works - google + email ?
by Poornima Marattil 12 Apr '04

12 Apr '04

hi all, Google's free e-mail service, Gmail, has received a huge amount of interest in the past week thanks mostly to its claim that it will offer 1GB of storage to each user. [...] Once again, there will not be any SANs involved, no Fibre Channel, no Shark or Symmetrix arrays, just commodity IDE drives in commodity X86 servers running Red Hat Linux. Scaling out is straightforward with new server/drive combos being added in to a 10/1200Mbit/s Ethernet network infrastructure. [...] http://www.techworld.com/applications/news/index.cfm?NewsID=1356&Page=1&pag… regards, Poornima Marattil

Morning All, Jatin, Nagarjun, Animesh, Vivek and a whole lot of others have suggested that we have a mini-version of the Flash Mob towards ironing out potential issues that may come up. Towards achieving the same we have significant work to be done on the following fronts: > Those who have had the privelege to play around with the Flash Mob ISO please educate us on the same > We need to have arranged a location with resources for hosting the mini-glug_bom Flash Mob. > Poornima/Jatin have accepted the challenge of researching the use of AMD and <1Ghz machines for the event. Your input towards "Just For Fun" flash mob are invited.
