One BIG difference with GNU/linux (that includes applications) you have access to the code so if you are in trouble u CAN correct things. Further every time (and that is at least fifteen times with different application) I mailed a developer i got a response with useful technical inputs which helped resolve the problem within a day. No stupid mails about You are a valued idiot and our idiots are looking into the problem and we will get back to you when the next release treadmill starts rolling. > Virus attacks are a different ball game.

I have been running Debian as root for years havent had a problem ever. And the box is connected 24/7. (Ofcourse this is quite a nasty thing to do) But then most of my ports are turned off and firewalled etc. etc. > Make sure you talk of support and cost of support.

If you plan to get support better than the kind stated above it will cost you a fortune and is unlikely to be available unless you have 100+ multi location setup. Factoring these costs with meticulous SLAs is the key to your costing. The microserfs very nicely forget about SLAs when costing but suddenly remember them when signing up MCs. Could not agree more with the rest of the mail. Finally it is about really understanding who exactly is responsible for the stuff that resides on your box. Quite contrary to what M$ say in the press, they absolve themselves of everything and charge you a fat packet in the bargain. Strangely enough even the DOD (USA) software certification program fails completely to certify key aspects of closed software. The situation is being rectified much to the dislike of fiends like Greenhills, M$ etc.. Cant find the relevant links. rgds jtd

[ILUG-BOM] Continuous receiving data on Broadband internet connection
by Nilesh Raykar 29 Mar '05

29 Mar '05

Hi all, I am using Hathway broadband internet connection(256kbps) on my Debian (Sarge) machine. I use KDE3.3 desktop & use knetload to monitor network traffic, rate of connection(kbps),etc. Also I have installed firewall using "firestarter". The public access is disabled to all services. Whenever I start the modem, knetload shows non-stop incoming data (about 5-10 kbps). However, there is no outgoing data. I wonder from where this data is coming. I have closed almost all services on my machine. See output of "netstat" below- <QUOTE> ROOT:/home/nilray# netstat -tuap Active Internet connections (servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 *:discard *:* LISTEN 2571/inetd tcp 0 0 localhost.localdom:smtp *:* LISTEN 2279/exim4 tcp6 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN 2593/sshd udp 0 0 *:discard *:* 2571/inetd <UNQUOTE> Can anybody suggest casue of this influx & how to control it?

Re: [ILUG-BOM] Error "modprobe Cant locate char-major-200 module" -- need help

29 Mar '05

>The error it gives is >"modprobe Cant locate char-major-200 module" >char-200-major is associated with all the devices under >directory /dev/vx What I understand is the directories in which MODEPROBE is trying to locate the required module do not have char-major-200 module. You will have to copy (char-major-200 module) in one of those directories. Modprobe is "SOMETHING" which resolves interdepencies. Eg. If you want to load Module A which in turn depends on Module B. Then in order to load Module A what is required is to load Module B first. By using MODPROBE you could load Module A directly and the interdepency is resolved by MODEPROBE.

Gentoo linux 2005.0 Released
by Gaurav Mishra 29 Mar '05

29 Mar '05

The delayed Gentoo Linux 2005.0 was finally released early this morning. As previously announced, Gentoo Linux now defaults to kernel 2.6 and older kernels are gradually being retired. Apart from the usual security patches and package upgrades (to kernel 2.6.11, GCC 3.3.5, X.Org 6.8.2, KDE 3.3.2 and GNOME 2.8.1), there seem to be no ground-breaking new features in Gentoo 2005.0. Despite that, and despite the effort required to get it up and running, it is hard to deny that Gentoo Linux is one of the most educational and enjoyable distributions out there! Quoted on Official Release "This release has had a few setbacks including a complete security rebuild, but with the help of the many teams within the Gentoo developer community, we believe that this release will be one of the best that we have ever had."

Quickcam driver problem in SuSe 9.2
