[SLE] Samba on 10.1 questions
by Patrick Shanahan 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

I have installed and initiated samba on my SUSE 10.1 system to a windoz xp box. I can see the resources on my SUSE box, but cannot see anything (cannot log into) on the windoz box. Where should I look and/or what information do I need to provide to solve this? tks, -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help(a)suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq(a)suse.com

[SLE] Disappointed with SLED 10 KDE
by Shriramana Sharma 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

I downloaded the free-to-download SLED 10 RC3, made a DVD using makeSUSEdvd 0.33, and wrote to a DVD+RW and installed. I saw no improvements in the KDE interface. I chose not to install Gnome as KDE is my preferred desktop. There seemed to be no big difference added to KDE. YaST had a couple of more config options, IIRC, and the KMenu structure was somewhat better than in SUSE regular. This is where it makes me feel bad that Novell does not add these extra functions to KDE while they can so readily do it to Gnome. I think I am going to empty that partition after a couple of days, and delete the downloaded (and created) ISOs. -- Tux #395953 resides at http://samvit.org playing with KDE 3.53 on SUSE Linux 10.1 $ date [] CCE +2006-07-05 W27-3 UTC+0530 -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help(a)suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq(a)suse.com

[SLE] a way to copy evolution addressbooks
by Toshi Esumi 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone has a good idea to copy evolution addressbooks (plural, I created some to organize contacts) from one 10.1 machine to another, or even one user to another in the same machine. My environment is Gnome and Evolution 2.6.0. I searched the archive and found the config was under "~/.gconf/apps/evolution/addressbook". But I'm not smart enough to completely decipher the xml script in "%gconf.xml", which seems to contain the addressbook config. Thanks, Toshi

[SLE] Help hosts.deny
by David Rankin 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

Mates, I am trying to configure hosts.deny to deny all access to APNIC IP's. I am also looking for any additional ideas that you have found that work to deny other notorious scrip kiddie addresses as well. So if you have a good hosts.deny file you wouldn't mind posting or sharing, I would welcome the help. The apnic ranges I have found so far come from: http://www.apnic.net/db/ranges.html The hosts.deny file I have put together from that looks like the following. What is everybody else doing to cut down on the annoying sshd/ftp etc.. attempts? # /etc/hosts.deny # See 'man tcpd' and 'man 5 hosts_access' as well as /etc/hosts.allow # for a detailed description. # Excluded APNIC Ranges ALL : 210.

[SLE] Java
by Jean-Pierre Abgottspon 10 Jul '06

10 Jul '06

Hi everyone, 1. What I am trying is to program in Java and manage to write my first 'Hello world' program. 2. With the help of two guys (Randall and Chuck) in the 'KDE' mailing list I managed to install 'Java' on my PC with YAST. As far as I can tell this went successfully. I have ended up with a collection of 10 'Java...' files and folders installed on my machine under '///home/user/point something' files and folders. (list attached). 3. My question is how do I go from here to program, save a program and execute it. When I get about it with 'Alt F2' and call on 'Java' I obtain a '/bin/sh' screen with a set of instruction inviting me to execute a class or Java options or to execute a jar file. Well... I am sitting in front of this screen not knowing how to run a Hello world or import 'java.applet' and 'java.awt'. Tks for help. Trust I am in the right mailing list to raise this question. Newbie.
