damaged filesystem

There was a powercut when my linux box was on. As a result, my system is saying that the filesystem is damaged. Running the repair utility does not help. Any suggestions? I run RH 7.1 on a Cyrix MII with 64 mb ram. Double-booted with Windows 98. Lilo seems to be running fine, though. Suhit Kelkar -- Get your free email from www.linuxmail.org Powered by Outblaze

Re: suid script not working

> it gives permission denied error. Whats wrong? Isn't the script suid > to root? Why isn't 'mkdir' getting root privilege? Scripts can't be "suid"ed. The effective UID used will be that of the program used to execute the script (sh/bash/python/perl etc). SUID only works with binaries, i.e. stuff that is executed directly, not using an external interpreter.

partitioning

Hello folks, I (finally) acquired a 40Gb HDD. I have partitioned it as follows :- primary - 2Gb - fat32 - /dev/hda1 extended - rest logical - 1.3Gb - Linux /dev/hda5 - 4Gb - fat32 /dev/hda6 - 9Gb - fat32 /dev/hda7 - 9Gb - fat32 /dev/hda8 - rest - fat32 /dev/hda9 I my haste and excitement I did not create a swap partition for Linux. Can I *delete* (using linux fdisk) the /dev/hda5 partition and split it into 2 without harm to the rest of the partitions? I think we can do it as the linux fdisk allows a lot of control, but I would just like to be certain about side-effects. :D Or can I use a swap _file_ instead of a partition? Or is a partition recommended? I would have experimented, but I already lost a lot of data in my last HDD crash and now I do not have a backup HDD. thanks, quasi

Alix - The original name for GNU kernel
by Pankaj Jangid 17 May '02

17 May '02

Hi All, I came across this paragraph while reading about "The GNU Project". These words are written by "Richard M. Stallman" Alix The GNU kernel was not originally supposed to be called the HURD. Its original name was Alix--named after the woman who was my sweetheart at the time. She, a Unix system administrator, had pointed out how her name would fit a common naming pattern for Unix system versions; as a joke, she told her friends, "Someone should name a kernel after me." I said nothing, but decided to surprise her with a kernel named Alix. It did not stay that way. Michael Bushnell (now Thomas), the main developer of the kernel, preferred the name HURD, and redefined Alix to refer to a certain part of the kernel--the part that would trap system calls and handle them by sending messages to HURD servers. Ultimately, Alix and I broke up, and she changed her name; independently, the HURD design was changed so that the C library would send messages directly to servers, and this made the Alix component disappear from the design. But before these things happened, a friend of hers came across the name Alix in the HURD source code, and mentioned the name to her. So the name did its job. -- Pankaj Jangid NCST, India

This is pretty basic. But yeah... the moment you want to do something that's not "inside" tomcat, you'd want to use Native Methods. For this you will have to code on the platform on which you are coding. For example if your external program/method is on Linux, you'd use CPP or C on Linux; if its on Windows, something equivalent. Lets hope things are not much ambiguous now. The question I replied to before had me stumped with ambiguousness. The answer is wrong nevertheless. This one sets things right.

Hints: 1) install tomcat on linux.(JRE required) 2) by default it listens to port 8080, if u disabled it then re-enable it. search for server.xml file, in tomcat directory. Amish. P.S. Apache(port 80) can also serv JSP pages through a module. You will have to modify httpd.conf for that. MALHAR PUJAR wrote: >using JWSDP.
