Why is Unix still used?
by Nikhil Joshi 24 Mar '02

24 Mar '02

What is the purpose of using Unix in todays scenario when we have Linux? AFAIK UNIX is great in SMP (100s of processors if I'm not wrong) but Linux lags behind by a long way (8-10 processors AFAIK). Is this the only reason or there r many more? _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get your free @yahoo.com address at http://mail.yahoo.com

Proposal for a Meet on 6th Jan
by Nagarjuna G. 22 Mar '02

22 Mar '02

I am proposing a meet on 6th Jan, and also proposing an agenda (if Sameer agrees to it): Using SGML to generate Documents, and converting SGML/XML to other popular formats like, ps, rtf, pdf etc. I have been using LaTeX for this task and highly satisfied, and would also love to learn the SGML tools to do the same. It is necessary that the hackers on the list should learn the power of these time tested tools, and should be introduced to them sooner than later. Should we decide Sameer! on your introduction/tutorial to structured documentation using SGML?

Richard Stallman: Free Software and India
by Sameer D. Sahasrabuddhe 21 Mar '02

21 Mar '02

Hi guys! So finally here's the "official" notification for RMS' talk in IITB. Most of you already know about his visit to Mumbai, and I guess there is no real need to introduce RMS to you :-) Please do come for the lecture. Date: Saturday, 23rd March 2002 Time: 4pm onwards Venue: Convocation Hall For directions for getting to IITB and to the convocation hall, please refer to this resource on the IITB website: http://www.iitb.ac.in/campus/howto/howtoget.html Here's an article that had recently figured in the Financial Express. Free software Guru -- Richard Stallman -- on India mission March 14, 2002 While the concept of using free software for back-end requirements is catching on, the desktop is yet to be liberated from the hold of the largest proprietary operating system (OS) corporations. So, as the free software movement guru Richard M Stallman sets out to spread the wings of the Free Software Foundation in India, helping build applications for the desktop that will reach the common man a daunting agenda lies ahead. Besides gearing up to popularise free software, both at the back end and especially the desktop, empowering developers to make applications ubiquitous, working with state governments to promote free software use in e-governance and using it as an effective tool to work towards bridging the digital divide is the core of Stallman's India agenda. 'Apprenticeship by tinkering' is clearly set to be the name of the game. Richard Stallman is the man behind GNU/Linux (GNU developed by Stallman and a Linux kernel developed by Linus Torwalds) open source operating system, which is believed to have more than 17 million installations worldwide. Interestingly, Stallman says, 'free' software is not about the price (and says companies are free to charge a sum to offer the operating system and services to users), but is all about the freedom and openness of use. The Free Software Foundation itself makes most of its revenues by selling copies of the software and training manuals while some funds come in by way of donations. The foundation is also looking at a business model where it will function as the certifying agency and will certify compliance of free software users with the licensing rules. "Countries can avoid paying gigantic amounts of money towards licensing of proprietary software. Specific to India, free software can be used to support computer science education at all levels. This also allows for anyone to use and learn," he said. Interestingly, the free software movement with GNU/Linux has already made inroads in India. To cite examples the Andhra Pradesh government is already set to execute projects on the free OS, while the well-known Simputer Trust has showcased this OS in its low-cost computing appliance - Simputer and some of the new technology start-ups like CDC Linux are already developing high-end clustering and parallel supercomputing solutions on the GNU/Linux operating system.

At what time the meeting is there & where in IIT premises. Rgds girish If any ILUG-BOM members are interested , they may join a meeting on Saturday at IIT where some are meeting. This is in response to an appeal made in ArthVrittant article on Stallman, by Anil Shaligram on 18 March issue of Loksatta. Some of the ideas that came up while thinking about Marathi Linux There are 3 levels of work in Marathi-isation 1> Applications like office software: Free softwares like a>StarOffice , which are quite a good substitute for MS-Office and available in Linux : b> GIS softwares like GRASS or MYWorld useful for urgent problms like water and environment c> educational softwares Like LOGO, STARLOGO, Model-It, Worldwatcher, DrGenius We need to translate the labels and messages and documentations and tutorials, multi-lingual CDs with multimedia. 2>Creating application in Marathi: Using gtk, glade emacs etc. 3> Working at the OS level : Creating labels/message table in marathi. NCST has already done a large part for Hindi, some in Marathi too. We also need to create mass awereness thru newspaper article in all the press. We should ask our local cybercafe to have marathi software loaded. AKRUTI have agrred to support anyone helping. Similarly other Marathi and Indian language developers can be asked to make offers. This would make the idea of working in Indian language a day-to-day affair without too much cost. jitendra For details contact jitendras(a)vsnl.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

unresolved symbols in shared library
by kshitijv 20 Mar '02

20 Mar '02

Hi Friends, I am creating a shared library using gcc for interfacing with SAP. This library uses functions from 3 static libraries. Out of these 3 static libraries one is provided by SAP and contains all the APIs required for communication with any third party software. I am linking these static libraries with the shared one by following command. gcc -o "shared lib" "obj of lib created using -fPIC" -l"staticlib1" -l"staticlib2" -l"staticlib3" I can't mention the lib names. I am able to create the library, but it contains unresolved symbols for the functions defined in the static libraries. One thing to note is all these symbols are either global or inline functions. But all of them have valid definitions in the corresponding static libraries. (globals in SAP provided lib, and others in our libs) I think the linking sequence for gcc is from right to left. But when I try to link the SAP provided library after the other two, ld terminates with segmentation fault. Changing the order of other 2 libs doesn't give problems. The only SAP library gives trouble. I am not able to find any solution to this problem. Can anybody help me? It will be nice if I could get more info about linker sequence, creation of symbol tables, etc. regards, -Kshitij. kshitijv e-mail: kshitijv(a)forindia.com

the lug search engine has been spruced up a bit. it now supports stop words and synonyms. this should help get better search results, but for now, I need to collect data on the kind of searches that people carry out. basically, i need you'll to use the search as you normally would. search for real topics. ciao, philip -- "We shall reach greater and greater platitudes of achievement." -- Richard J.

Here's the situation: I have a Perl CGI script which references a file. The second file contains a password. The password is required to access the database which is used by the CGI application I'm writing. Now the Perl CGI file definitely has to be readable and executable by the webserver. What about the file with the password? It should also be readable by the webserver daemon. Problem is that anyone else whose scripts run on the same server can simply cat the file using their own CGI scripts and se ethe passwords etc. So how is this fixed? -- Satya. <URL:http://satya.virtualave.net/> Cap'n! Cap'n! the UART's will'nae take the speed!
