So how about posting a howto on how to install wxWidgets and wxPython and providing all deps in one place. Most testers may be deterred trying to get it running imo. Particularly since we would need C.As for doing a good job.

Actually just plain tied up with voip stuff, which has plenty of hardware and is very interesting. Also my wife Punit writes all the software. And my machine runs woody + some backports installing the latest wxPython libs requires several deps to be installed which will break my other stuff. Jeez am i lazy. There is ample scope for business solutions on GNU/linux. Which is what i keep cribing about everytime someone say M$ or wonderful new licence. Also try doing a fraction of the above using M$. Infact just try keeping a system with a closed app like the above running for a few days. rgds jtd

Virtualisation
by Rony Bill 07 Jul '05

07 Jul '05

Hello All, A few months back there was a discussion here on running 2 OSes in one machine and I had put forth a concept of having multiple OSes in one machine and simulate multiple computers in one machine to reduce hardware costs. I had suggested a system of having a motherboard that has a bios which will create seperate hardware quotas for each OS. In the July 2005 issue of Chip, there is an elaborate article on virtualisation and some of those concepts along with much more information have been discussed in it. :) Regards, Rony. ___________________________________________________________ How much free photo storage do you get?

Dear Luggers, Please help me with a appropriate sol'n for the following case: SRS Client ------> RH9 Proxy ------->SRS Server Port 80 443 SRS is a SUN Client for monitoring, it communicates with the SRS Server and sends stats and traps. Any suggestions for implementing the proxy. The client would connect to port 80 of the proxy and subsequent traffic would be diverted via port 443 to the SRS Server. Its SSL proxy that i intend to implement, can anybody point me to NOWTO or reply with a few easy steps to help me implement the solution quickly.

Old hardware...
by Dinesh Joshi 06 Jul '05

06 Jul '05

Hey dudes, I am looking out for a working Pentium I motherboard. I have the rest of the stuff cpu, memory etc... If someone has a P I motherboard and would like to help a poor college kid (^^) then please email me on or off the list. I know many of you must be wondering why am I posting this on a LUG mailing list. Well, I was in the middle of building a Linux router when the motherboard died. Actually, the BIOS on the board died. I got a new EEPROM IC (exact specs), the BIOS image but unfortunately I dont have the programmer to flash the BIOS. So I am on the look out for another board in working condition. I got to the part of installing Redhat 9 on my old 1.2GB seagate harddisk when this happened :( Please dont brush away this thread as trivial. If you can seriously help me out in whatever way you can then please email me. I may pay you whatever little I can. I already have quite a large outstanding bill with my vendor :P Thanks!!!

Hi All >Do you actually type this entire line everytime you want to connect. No sir. Its a script. >Your external modem will be /dev/ttyS0 if connected to com1 or /dev/ttyS1 if connected to com2. In kppp you may have to add this line as the optional command in the after connect text box of kppp setup.. 'route add default ppp0' without the quotes. Thanks for the suggestion i will try out, I connect through a reliance LG-LSI-110 Cordless phone. Made a symbolic link from /dev/input/ttyACM0 -> /dev/modem. The problem is pcquest linux 2004 and enterpise linux version 3 work easy and there icons don't freeze when i connect. Also when i uninstalled iptables those errors where gone, But the freeze was still there. I am using Sarge (Testing) from PCQUEST dvd. Any other Debian users here who connect through Relaince cordless phone. -- Sachin __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Routing woes: Netgear port forwarding to RH9 & FreeBSD fails.
by Abhishek Daga 05 Jul '05

05 Jul '05

Machine 1: FreeBSD 4.9 Machine 2: RH9 (with mtnl dialup) Machine 3: FC3 All 3 are also connected via a Netgear MR814v2 (router/firewall) <---> Dlink DSL Router provided by TataIndicom. Machine 2 is connected to MTNL ALSO. Problem: Port Forwarding(80) in our netgear router to FreeBSD and RH9 fails whereas same works for the FC3 machine. Firewall rules on FC3 and RH9 are the same. By fail i mean, the setting takes place but when trying to connect, it fails. When trying to connect directly to the RH9 machine via the MTNL dynamic IP, it works fine. both SSH and HTTP. SSH (port 22) also fails similarly for RH9 and FreeBSD but works fine with the FC3 machine. As remote management is ON, we can connect to the router from outside. There is an option to make a server the DMZ server. Even when the RH9 and FREEBSD machines are made the default DMZ, it does not accept connections. Any clues? Seems a bit bizarre frankly. But then again, most things seemingly are. thanks abhi Ignorance is Strength. What you don't know cannot hurt you. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?

Linux based Time & attendance system

Friends, I need to advise a client on which "time & attendance" system to acquire, to replace an ailing/legacy DOS based one. If any of you are aware of (Mumbai) vendors/integrators offering a GNU/Linux based time and attendance system for a 50-100 person organisation, please oblige by providing contact info OR just pointers where I could look for such vendor(s). I am keen to review/recommend a (open standards) solution rather than propietary (read M$) based quotes received todate. If it helps clariy, I seek your help to locate 'vendor/integrator' as against googling for 'software/tools'. Thanks in advance for your time and help on this. Vydya
