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

Debian Etch DVD Set
by Satish Alwani 11 Apr '07

11 Apr '07

Vihan, I currently have it being downloaded, maybe you can do dvd 2 / dvd 3. Its 38% percent done since last night when I started. I think I should have it in the next 2 days odd. I could send you a copy if you want. So i strongly suggest you work on disc 2 first. I am trying to get one of my friends to pitch in and do disc 3 if possible. Once I have all the discs, I can send 1 copy to nagarjuna as well, so he can directly dump it on the server. TIFR is like 10 mins away for me, else courier zindabad. As of the site, I dont think I have seen it since maybe 3-4 years, if not more. I know it has errors, it was written for php3 maybe the beginning of php4. Just running out of time of updating my own stuff. As mentioned, it was for IE5.5, thats pretty old. Regards, Satish

I am going to try and cover the details, briefly - feel free to send questions my way; either onlist or offlist. Also, if you know someone who might be interested,feel free to forward this email to them. Job Spec: While the job is primarily system admin and network management, there is a fair bit of 'script coding' that is also required. Required: The Indian operation is just starting off, so initial work will require a fair bit of remote 'pairing'. We are also going to be spending a few months in India onsite at a client, so expect to be thrown right into the firezone. Technologies that should not be strange to you : Linux ( we are a 100% CentOS / RHEL shop ), Xen, selinux, puppet ( and/or cfengine ), isp grade networks ( routing, packet monitoring and performance testing ), high performance database's, high density storage, large data volume handling. You *must* be able to write scripted code in ruby. Python and php are also handy to know - but not required - since lots of our legacy stuff is done in python and php ( dont ask, the php stuff was before my time ... ). We dont really care about what degree you have. we also dont care if you got 60% or 90% in your exams or what certificates you carry along with you. But, you need to be able to communicate in English, must have atleast a few years of working in a related environment. Common sense and an ability to rationally think are, however, critical! General sysadmin skills are essential ( we will test you on these ). People with a well thumbed copy of 'unix power tools' should definitely apply! All assignments are permanent, full time and come with the govt requirements for benefits etc. Location: We are looking for people based in Pune, Delhi and Chennai as a base. However, for people based in Delhi and Chennai there will be a frequent ( not exceeding 4 working days / month ) requirement to travel to Pune. Type of Employer: The Company is a infrastructure management consulting service, where we offer systems and network services to clients. We have 27 people working full time and 8 people part-time in the UK. And a further 6 people in Australia. Agile and XP practises are a cornerstone of the management style ( in that there is really no management, the entire organisation tree is very flat ). Salary and Benefits: You get paid pretax's Rs.80,000/- a month. We expect you to work 38 hrs per week. We also only work half-days on Wednesdays. There maybe a requirement to work weekends, but only after suitable advance notice ( mostly to handle infrastructure outage that cant happen during the work week ). There is a 6 months trial run period, wherein you get to see what we do and if you want to work with us, and we get to see if we want you working with us. Interview process: 1. Send me a CV. 2. We call you for a quick chat on the phone. ( 20 min ). 3. Have a longer ( 3 hrs estimate ) sysadmin 'pair' session. 4. Fix a time and have a longer ( 1 hr ) developer 'pair' session. 5. People get hired. ( 1st week of June 2007 ) Regards, - - KB [1] - Agencies and head hunters are not welcome to reply to me, we dont and wont hire people through agencies. - -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219@icq _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd(a)lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/ - -- You see things; and you say 'Why?'; But I dream things that never were; and I say 'Why not?' - George Bernard Shaw -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Red Hat - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGHFUbXQZpNTcrCzMRAhxyAKCjCiJKzH1CGPqO2QuDbjV5FaKY/gCgnowq PUd/ZKdpxxZ5Epyo5zwQK+E= =Lf74 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Ilug-cal-discuss mailing list Ilug-cal-discuss(a)list.ilug-cal.org http://list.ilug-cal.org/mailman/listinfo/ilug-cal-discuss -- The KDE Project : http://www.kde.org KDE India : http://in.kde.org Mailing List : http://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-india
