Hi folks, While investigating OpenBSD's cron implementation, I found that they set the systemwide crontab (a.k.a. /etc/crontab) to be readable by the superuser only. The attached patch will bring this to FreeBSD by moving crontab out from BIN1 group and install it along with master.passwd. This change should not affect the current cron(1) behavior.

The recent patch posted by Steve VanDevender <stevev at darkwing.uoregon.edu> for fixing the session code on Tru64 isn't quite right -- it still fails in the case of NO tty being allocated. The problem is that s->tty is a char[TTYSZ] rather than a char *, and hence can't hold a NULL. Calling sia_ses_init() with the tty being an empty string doesn't signify no tty, and

When we installed OpenSSH 2.1.1p4 on our Solaris systems, our users noticed that it did not honor password expiration consistently with other Solaris login services. The patch below is against OpenSSH 2.2.0p1 and adds support for PAM password changes on expiration via pam_chauthtok(). A brief summary of changes: auth-pam.c: * change declaration of pamh to "static pam_handle_t *pamh",

I have habtm relationship between articles and contributors. Everything''s working fine, except when I create a new article Rails doesn''t seem to save the contributors that belong to it into articles_contributors. This is the controller (that I pilfered from typo): def new @article = Article.new(params[:article]) [...] if request.post?

No matter what the press may >think. The Linux community didn't invent PAM, Sun did. Many more systems than Linux have PAM, Solaris, HP-UX some BSDs for a start. Having said that I agree with

Hi, Can anyone explain how the standard error in arima() is calculated? Also, how can I extract it from the Arima object? I don't see it in there. > x <- rnorm(1000) > a <- arima(x, order = c(4, 0, 0)) > a Call: arima(x = x, order = c(4, 0, 0)) Coefficients: ar1 ar2 ar3 ar4 intercept -0.0451 0.0448 0.0139 -0.0688 0.0010 s.e.

Hi, I'm trying to plot several lag.plots on a page, however the second plot replaces the first one (although it only takes up the upper half as it should): par(mfrow=c(2,1)) a<-sin(1:100) b<-cos(1:100) lag.plot(a) lag.plot(b) What's the trick to this?

Quite a few changes here, please test. http://www.mindrot.org/misc/openssh/openssh-SNAP-20000916.tar.gz -d 20000916 - (djm) New SuSE spec from Corinna Vinschen <corinna at vinschen.de> - (djm) Update CygWin support from Corinna Vinschen <vinschen at cygnus.com> - (djm) Use a real struct sockaddr inside the fake struct sockaddr_storage.

I wrote an application in c++ which should return the GetAsyncKeyState(0x01). But I always get 0. If I click on the window of my app,I will get the right answer. GetAsyncKeyState should return systemwide clicks! The same things happens when I write a VB application. I found an app written in Delphi which uses the GetAsyncKeyState call and returns systemwide clicks. Can someone tell me whats the

Hi, I'm using survreg() from the survival package for parametric survival regression (modelling inter-arrival times of patients to a waiting list as exponentially distributed, with various regressors such as queue size and season). Does anyone know which algorithm survreg() uses for this? Thanks, Gad -- Gad Abraham Department of Mathematics and Statistics The University of Melbourne

Hallo, what is the right way to set a proxy systemwide using centos 7? I need this for wget and docker. My first idea was /etc/environment but allthough the proxy is set wget and docker don? t connect to their target-systems. Thanks for hints Ralf

Hi, I'm using zoo because it can automatically label the months of a time series composed of daily observations. This works well for certain time series lengths, but not for others, e.g.: While: > library(zoo) > plot(zoo(runif(10), as.Date("2005-06-01") + 0:50)) Shows up the months and day of month, > plot(zoo(runif(10), as.Date("2005-06-01") + 0:380))

Hi, I'd like to store large covariance matrices using Matrix classes. dsyMatrix seems like the right one, but I want to specify just the upper/lower triangle and diagonal and not have to instantiate a huge n^2 vector just for the sake of having half of it ignored: Dumb example: M <- new("dsyMatrix", uplo="U", x=rnorm(1e4), Dim=as.integer(c(100, 100))) diag(M) <- 1

Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but I couldn't find it in the mailing list archives, the faq, the included documentation, or the source, so I figured I'd at least ask. I'd like to query a WinNT wins server from my linux box, and find the IP address of a machine that is registered there. Ideally, I'd like to just plug that into smbclient. As it stands, when I type
