[SLE] wu ftpd trouble with ls
by kar＠webline.dk 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

I have this problem that my wu.ftpd will only display default ls listings as names with no attributes like date, permissions and so on. ftp.access is supposed to contain the options lslong, lsshort, lsplain and lsreal. But no matter what I put in these there's only one option (lsplain) that influences the list, and it's not the default list, but the list I get when I type 'ls -l' !! How can I make ftpd do 'ls -l' as default ???? -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe(a)suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help(a)suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/support/faq

Hello, What is the best way to enable full-duplex, 100baseT on a system with the network drivers loaded as modules? In conf.modules? Anyone have the options for the tulip mod?

[SLE] VMware & XFree86 4.0
by lsayre＠stratos.net 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

On the VMware web site (http://www.vmware.com) there are warnings that VMware will not run under XFree86 version 4.0+. I see that SuSE 7.0 (which runs XFree86 4.0+) comes with a 30 day trial of VMware. Does this mean that an older XFree86 must be installed with SuSE 7.0 for VMware to run? How would this affect those in need of XFree86 4.0 for their video card (such as in a nVidia Gforce 256 2, for example)?

[SLE] Mounting remote orb drive via samba
by kester.clegg＠comreco-rail.co.uk 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

Hi had a nasty experience with mounting an orb drive on a win95 pc from a linux box. The drive mounted fine, but after a while crashed, taking the pc with it (no suprise there, somehow), but it also froze kfm which was accessing the mounted drives at the time. Trying to umount the share failed, as kfm had hung which meant 'resource busy' type of problem. I couldn't seem to 'kill -9' kfm either, it just didn't seem to die. What I would like to know is whether an option exists in smb.conf which can help deal with this situation - i.e. a remotely mounted smbf drive crashes making it difficult to umount the offending drive as the application accessing the drive then hangs. If a shared drive becomes unavailable (i.e. it crashes / machine goes down), can the share be umount'ed autmatically somehow?

[SLE] Off the list (for longer)
by grimmer＠suse.de 31 Aug '00

Hi Folks, I have not even caught up with the 600 messages you were able to produce in the past few days and I am already gone again :( I will be on vacation for the next three weeks starting next week. And this time I will *really* be away from my mail. Check http://www.cocobay.de for pictures (text is in german), if you want to drool :) You guys do a terrific job and I really enjoy the positive atmosphere in this list. Let's try to keep it like this! I guess it will take me a while to catch up with everything when I return, but I will be back!

[SLE] FYI - BP6 HPT-366 Patch
by heroron＠yahoo.com 31 Aug '00

31 Aug '00

Hello, I am still working on my BP6/Highpoint ATA 66 controller "issues". A patch was mentioned, along with alot of discussion about the SuSE kernel and SuSE patches. Well, I was checking out the patches and code from SuSE, and comparing with Hedrick's patches. It seems that the HPT patch IS in the 2.2.16-SuSE kernel source, under the ide.2.2.16.20000705-lvm patch. Also, if one looks at the SuSE patches, you may like what you see there for the 2.2.16. They have pretty much taken the best from a very messy situation. I just spent a few days reading the kernel list, and I gotta hand it to SuSE! Not only do they grab the best and make a very nice kernel, but they ( the SuSE team ) are very big contributors. Kudos. Back on topic, though, if you look into the code for the ide.c , under block, you will notice that Hedrick actually had to NAME Maxtor 9xxxxx series as a special case! You may have remembered an earlier post of mine, wher I named my problem drive as being just that - Maxtor 9xxxx series. Interesting. Anyway, just wanted to share. Ron PS I'm still pi**ed that kbill is broken in 6.4! (haven't had time to fix it yet) BUT MTV ROCKS!! __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
