[Ignore the previous e-mail, I somehow sent it when I was trying to paste from clipboard] I recently migrated my dovecot/postfix setup to a new machine. After doing so, I have encountered a problem where imap processes get stuck in a loop eating loads of IO on the machine. Looking at the trace (snippet below), it looks like they are sitting and reading the inbox and other folders of

I have installed xcp/xen on ubuntu 12.04 server using the instructions found here: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/XCP_toolstack_on_a_Debian-based_distribution It seems to be running correctly and I can access it using XenCenter and create and run vm''s. However, the keyboard doesn''t work in the vm console. The mouse works fine, but no keyboard. I have tried a vm with Windows 7 64

I'm running Linux 2.1.130 on an AXP, with Samba 2.0 beta 2. I have smbfs enabled in the kernel with Win 95 bug fixes enabled but I'm not running smbd. The server containing the share is an HP running Samba 1.9.16p11. I mount the share with smbmount //hpname/share -c 'mount /home/me/mydir' All is well for a while (~1 hour), but then I get kernel: smb_get_length: recv error = 5

Doesn't Samba log login failures? I'd like them logged, preferrably (at least to start with) with the tried id/password-pair. Do I have to get my hands dirty with the source or has someone done this before me? Thanks // Jonas

In my high school computer lab I have Red HAt 5.0 with SAMBA being used as a file server. The kids are getting used to it. But recently I'm seeing something strange. A student with id "james" will log on Windows 95, go to network neighborhood and to the Linux computer and find there among other normal items two folders. The first will be his own folder with his id, but the second

I'm having a problem getting W95 and WNT to correctly read file names on a samba server I set up. The server passed all of the diagnostics, and file names show up correctly in a dos window. However, under windows explorer, anything after a . doesn't show up in the name. This is only true for a . in the middle of the name, "hidden" files such as .fvwmrc show up. WE does

Hi, I'm playing around using Opus in a 'chunked' streaming context, where chunks of media are served in separate HTTP responses. I am trying to hunt down the source of some clicks-and-pops during playback, and while it is very likely that these glitches are due to the low quality of my code, I wanted to ask if the admonition in the API docs[1] that "encoder state *must*

Builds of the R-2.0.0 release have been considerably more successful at my site than previous releases. I now have it installed on these platforms: Apple PowerPC G3 267MHz GNU/Linux 2.4.19-4a (Yellow Dog Linux release 2.3 (Dayton)) Compaq Alpha Sierra OSF/1 5.1 Compaq/DEC Alpha OSF/1 4.0F Intel Itanium-2 GNU/Linux Red Hat Linux Advanced Server release 2.1AS (Derry) Intel Pentium II FreeBSD

The way things are now, input_userauth_request() calls the authmethod, and then does a bunch of checks, like the special case for root. If an authmethod requires a challenge-response conversation, these checks are skipped, unless they are duplicated by the authmethod. For example, in auth2-chall.c, some of the code is duplicated (logging, sending the reply), but the root special case is skipped.

Does anybody use openbsd-compat/vis.c? Not at the moment I think: % find . -name '*.[ch]' -exec grep -l "vis *(" {} \; ./openbsd-compat/vis.c ./openbsd-compat/vis.h % find . -name '*.[ch]' -exec grep -l VIS_ {} \; ./includes.h ./openbsd-compat/vis.c ./openbsd-compat/vis.h The reason I ask is, AT&T's graphviz package includes a vis.h, and when I try to compile

The latest snapshot (20020324) fails to compile here.

I noticed that (perhaps because ':' is invalid in a username) you can say ssh -l user:style host, where the "user:style" is sent by the client, and the server strips the ":style" part off and makes it available as part of the authentication context. It's currently unused. What are the plans for this, if any? I was experimenting with the idea of using it with SRP

What is autom4te.cache/ and why is it in the snapshot?

Is there a way to prevent browselists from machines other than those of my choosing to show up in the browselists/network neighbourhood? I don't want win95 clients that offer shares themselves to show up in the network neighbourhood. Michel. -- Michel van der Laan - michel@nijenrode.nl http://www.nijenrode.nl/~michel

Hello. I once read somewhere that it's possible to limit SSH pubkeys to 'tunnel-only'. I can't seem to find any information about this in any of the usual places. I'm going to be deploying a few servers in a couple of days and I'd like them to log to a central server over an SSH tunnel (using syslog-ng) however I'd like to prevent actual logins (hence

This is to announce the availability of SRP (Secure Remote Password) support for OpenSSH.

Recently we made somemajor changes to do_child() in OpenSSH -current. Those changes included splitting it up into smaller chunks to help with readability and also to extract out IRIX and AIX specific code to reduce the number of lines in our diffs against the OpenSSH tree. I need people to do some testing on different platforms to ensure that all the right #ifdef/#endif bits got put back in

Correct me if I'm wrong, but init_rng() in entropy.c doesn't call seed_rng(), and in fact seed_rng() isn't called from _anywhere_ (in openssh-2.5.1p2). So calls to BN_rand() only pick up the tiny/non-existent amount of entropy added by BN_rand() itself from the system clock (time in seconds). Shouldn't seed_rng() be called from init_rng()? It should be called from _somewhere_,
