Wireless Mesh - Progress and success
by Roshan 14 Apr '07

14 Apr '07

Hello All, Mr. Rony will post details of today's session along with other links. The document for Wireless Mesh has been updated and is available at http://fci.wikia.com/wiki/WirelessMesh There are plans for the next week too, but they aren't confirmed. However, if we (GLUG-BOM members) do plan to meet up, I'll request you to come up with resources (GNU/Linux, Free documents etc.) that can be shared across the mesh network and accessible to those who want them. (atleast indirectly). We had two mesh clients (if that is the correct terminology, technically) as Sabayon Linux on one laptop and Microsoft Windows XP on another and tried downloading distros (600 MB and above) with speeds ranging from 300 KiloBytes / second - 700 KB / second. (Statistics from Mozilla Firefox, with its default download manager). -- S K Somaiya College of ASC - http://www.somaiya.edu/sksasc FSF of India Associate Fellow - http://www.gnu.org.in Send a FREE SMS to your friend's mobile from Yahoo!

Hidden bots in GLUG-BOM Wiki?
by Roshan 12 Apr '07

12 Apr '07

Hello List, Apparently, I have been notified of changes to wiki pages constantly by some unknown / unregistered usernames who don't seem to change anything on the page (according to the page history). Does this indicate that there are hidden bots attacking the wiki or is it simply something else that I am unaware of? Any wikipedian (on this list) aware of what it could be? What could be done to solve it? -- S K Somaiya College of ASC - http://www.somaiya.edu/sksasc FSF of India Associate Fellow - http://www.gnu.org.in Send a FREE SMS to your friend's mobile from Yahoo!

wireless mesh at hbcse successfully done
by Nagarjuna G. 11 Apr '07

11 Apr '07

Hi all, particularly those who attended the workshop on 31st March and 1st April, and last saturday Rony, Jtd resumed the work. Status: Last saturday we successfully managed to get the mesh working. Actually the mesh works out of the box like a charm. We only used several of our legacy skills and actually wasted lot of time. But at the end every moment spent was useful. We now know exactly what to communicate to others who wish to setup such a mesh (mess ;-) successfully. The dhcp on wireless was not working as of Saturday, but today afternoon I tried based on a reply from the olsr-users mailing list. Again it worked out of the box. What I did: installed a package called 'freifunk-dnsmasq', restarted it. Now we see an additional parameter on the web interface called OLSR-DHCP: This is where we give the DHCP share of the mesh network (not the lan network). thats it. Now we have a working mesh in the campus. I will write documentation here: http://fci.wikia.com/wiki/WirelessMesh. Please add to everything I missed out. I will also upload few screen shots so that new teams setting it up will find it useful. Next step: Prepare a server (Rony contributed a server) and dump useful resources there for community use. Next time, gluggers can walk into our campus and sit in our lounge with a laptop and takeaway what the server has. If we get a list of goodies that the community needs we will begin archiving them. So send such a request to glab(a)hbcse.tifr.res.in. we will download them during the night time and leave it one the server. Nagarjuna
