[OT] Networking IP Query.
by Rony 04 Oct '07

04 Oct '07

Hello All, A few days back I gave a small introductory training session to some freshers on networking, ip addresses, subnets, gateways and dns. However after that one question comes to my mind about subnets. Can we have multiple networks with adjacent subnets on a common LAN connection or do they need to be physically different too? For example can we have 192.168.1-31/27 and 192.168.32-63/27 on the same LAN switch as independent subnet islands? Theoretically it looks so. When we set up network information on a host pc, we give the IP address and subnet. However, how does that host know the starting and ending ip of its subnet so that it will not talk to its adjacent subnet? ......For example, how does host 192.168.1.33/27 know that its subnet starts from ip 32 upto 63 and will not talk to 31 or less? Or do the subnets have to be on different LAN switches? Any pointers to this will help. -- Regards, Rony. Knock Knock Who's There? Linux Who Linux? GNU/Linux

Hi, Opensuse 10.3 has been released on some mirrors. Can anybody help get it ? Currently available at: ftp://mirror.switch.ch/mirror/opensuse/distribution/10.3/iso/dvd/ http://mirror.pacific.net.au/linux/opensuse/distribution/10.3/iso/dvd/ Could be available at other mirrors but not all of them have made it available. I checked a few and found the above two have the ISOs. There is no official annoucement regarding its availability. The above mirrors also have torrents available. The ISO for i386 is around 4.1 GB.

Tata Indicom Broadband @ Linux box
by Pradeepto Bhattacharya 03 Oct '07

03 Oct '07

Hi, Few days back, I subscribed to Tata Indicom Broadband ( www.tataindicombroadband.in ). I chose the Infinity 1 Mbps plan. This apparently comes with no installation charges even if you don't give commitment for more than 1 month. For other plans you have to commit for 4 months to get that 1K INR waiver. I found that they do the feasilbilty quite fast and response time was quite fast as well ( this might depend on locality). But co-ordination between the tech and marketing dudes was not so good. Oh and neither of them knew if they supported Linux :O. Surprisingly the callcentre dude confidently said they do and the tech dude would setup everything when he comes to my place. Cut to my home ( few days later, i.e. yesterday ) - the tech dude arrives. When I tell him that I have linux on all the boxes he made a few calls and finally said he doesn't know how it works on Linux but he will get a mail from his boss and will come back and do the setup. After some random conversation, I asked him if he can do the setup on Windows atleast and he managed to do it on my windows partition in my laptop ( yes, I didnot delete it yet :). The general process these chaps follow is - login to some webconsole of theirs where they find data about the customer - go to the tata indicome bb website and register with the Serial number and PIN code. After which you have to select your username, password and the usual cruft. Then the create a account on your box and check if everything works and leave. The Linux way works much faster :). I followed [1]. But all that is needed is "sudo pppoeconf". If you already have a /etc/ppp/peers/dsl-provider, back it up if you care for existing settings. After that is mostly selecting yes or no. For user name - please select username(a)vsnl.net or whatever domain they have given you. But point being the complete userid+domain has to be there, afaik. Type in your password. ( when the dudes set it up, they generally put passwd as tata123, change it using the website ) Don't know if this is worth adding into the wiki. Maybe it should be, [1]http://users.pandora.be/Asterisk-PBX/PPPoE.htm Cheers!

Field Report - Freed.in/2007
by Pradeepto Bhattacharya 03 Oct '07

03 Oct '07

Hi, I was at FREED.IN/2007 in Delhi - a event organised by ilug-del. This even was known as FreeDel earlier. This was the first even I attended by ilug-del. Some luggers from BOM have attended FreeDel many times before. It was a wonderful experience. Meeting many old friends and making many more new friends. Quite a few from ILUG-BOM were present. Many if not all of them were actually speakers at the event. The event kick started with Raj Mathur opening address and lamp lighting ceremony. Shawn Kwon gave a wonderful talk on his experiences with FOSS in Korea. It was followed by Atul Chitnis's interesting talk on innovation and startup. Was a good topic for budding entrepreneurs in the audience. Speakers from LUG-BOM included, Devdas Bhagat,Philip Tellis Barkha Khatri, Anurag Patel, Friji Karthikeyan, Arun Khan, Ananth A, Gaurav Chaturvedi, Dinesh Shah (who is a temporary Delhite atm) , Kartik Mistry and me. ( hope I didnot forget anyone, sorry if I did ). I finally met some people for the first time whom I knew from mailing lists and irc - Raj Mathur, Kingsly John (nicest and most helpful person ever!), Karanbir Singh ( you *have* hear him speak at least once, especially in a bof sort of environment ). There were quite a impromptu bofs. It often started as a chat and went on to become a fullfledged bof. One example was - when Mayank Sharma ( of Linux.com fame ), Aanjhan Ranganathan and me were discussing how we often meet at foss conf at various places - when Karanbir Singh joined us and Kingsly a little later. Since then the discussion took a right turn and went straight into discussing how certain aspects of ISPs work and "pairing" between ISPs work and other things even. After that a reporter from Tehelka.com joined us and asked many questions about FOSS. From that point on, many others joined the bof. That was one enlightening discussion. There were two panel discussions even and many many talks in different tracks. There was a lot of new things to learn, I must say. I had the opportunity to meet two GSoC candidates for the first time - Piyush Verma (KDE) and Anant Narayan ( Bell Labs ). Interesting chaps. Hope to see them again in future.Met old friends and known people from the Indian foss scene. Other lugs represented were - Pune LUG, ILug-Cal, people from Bangalore were there even ILUG-Del hospitality was awesome. I have never seen so many kababs at one time. ;). Some of us stayed in JNU campus, the place is really nice. The event was co-organised by JNU - School of Information Technology. Bottom line - great conference. You should seriously consider attending the event next time. Btw, it really is a community event. The line between speakers and volunteers is almost invisible. Quite a few speakers happily got "volunteered". Be there next time to see it yourself and experience it first hand. Cheers!

Tata Indicom Broadband @ Linux box
by Satish Alwani 02 Oct '07

Actually, As far as I know they are replacing all their logins/ PPPoE based connections with a browser based login. Once you login (yes it works fine with firefox), your effectively online. I think they had a PPPoE connection here, but it was before i took up tata, when i joined they just gave me something called the TI BB Web Dialer [loginmum.tataindicombroadband.in]. Which in a way is good cause it works with any browser with js. Satish

If you have any questions, speak to Lajpat 9422077888 or Aditi at 23826674 . Please forward this to your friends who are likely to be interested. Chandita ================================== LUKSH or GNU / Linux Users knowledge Sharing House an invitation from Comet Media Foundation, Mumbai Most of us who use computers and the Internet in our day to day work know that information technologies change very fast. We have had the experience of changing our computers from time to time as technologies offering greater amounts of computing power at faster speeds became available, together with better Internet connections. We tend to use terms like hardware and software to describe our computers. Many would remember going from a simple Pentium I PC to Pentium IV PC now the triple core PC. We try to get a fix on our computer hardware by remembering brand names and share the information with friends, but always have a lurking feeling that we don't have the whole picture. Going to software, can you remember the number of times you've had to upgrade your software? Then there are virus problems, despite spending sizable sums on anti-viral protection? Then the frustration of the computer hanging up just when something important had to go? You may have moved from one vendor or service provider to another, but no satisfactory explanation was ever given for these problems. You may have been told that you had to reset your computer for your own good. So often, you may have had to abandon your data, never knowing the reason why. A fast solution for the vendor or service provider, but such a loss to you. You just had to accept it as part of the IT game--it just happens to some people sometimes, it would seem. After all to gain such efficiency, you have to be prepared to lose something they said, as if it was a philosophical matter! Most of the problems we have encountered have to do with the stability of the software on our systems. To be more specific, while many of us may have heard of GNU or Linux, most of us only know Windows, the proprietary operating owned by Microsoft and Word, Excel, Powerpoint and other applications also distributed by Microsoft. By contrast, GNU/Linux is described as free software or open source meaning that its codes are open and can be modified by users. The trouble is, even if we are ready to adopt it, GNU/Linux is not easily found. Who will show us how to install it on our computers? Will we have to make any changes in our hardware for it? How will we train ourselves to use it? Is there any vendor or service provider to help us with it? Though the solution to many of our problems may seem to lie in free software, we find it difficult to get our hands on it. Do you know that eighty percent of the servers that the internet runs on use GNU/Linux and they remain on for 24 hours, all the time. This is because they are the most reliable operating systems. So, what is a GNU/Linux Operating System (OS)? And what is free software / open source? Why is it supposed to be free? Where can we come to know more about GNU/Linux? You can keep adding on questions which come to you. We at Comet Media Foundation have decided to form a club to respond to these needs, LUKSH or the GNU / L inux U sers K nowledge S haring H ouse. We thought we could meet every other week, or twice a month on the second and last Saturdays , to discuss the implementation of GNU / Linux and open source software at our workplaces and homes. Our LUKSH is simple: to share knowledge about GNU / LINUX and Open Source Software as a cost effective reliable virus-free alternate to costly proprietary software and to get ourselves out of the control of transnational IT corporations. It is about being free, not just getting something for nothing. Please join us from 2 to 5 pm on the 29 th of September 2007, for the first meeting to explore this further.

Why short hand English is an irritant in mailing lists? was: Re: [ILUG-BOM] Mail Delivery Issues?
by Nagarjuna G. 29 Sep '07

29 Sep '07

The thread referred to in the subject line started with Mail delivery issues, and then started discussing some newbie problems, and ended up with some discussion about shorthand and being literate in English ... Our emails are archived. When you search emails using any search engine, getting replies and help based on short hand English becomes difficult. The user's group's emails are a great source of help for a number of people who look for help on the Internet. Therefore it is necessary to write questions and reply messages as comprehensively as possible. Our questions and replies to them are valuable knowledge base. improper language and subject of threads does disturb the implicit protocol. Therefore, please use good subject lines, and if necessary use new subject lines, or edit subject lines for appropriate archiving. And of course as good language as possible. Nagarjuna
