Struggled a whole day, but still could not get DCOM working on my machine. What I did is: 1. Installed R 2.8.1 under folder "../R/R-2.8.1" 2. Installed R_Scilab_DCOM3.0-1B5 under folder ".. \R\(D)COM Server" 3. Installed packages: rscproxy_1.0-12, RExcelInstaller_3.0-10, rcom_2.0-4... 4. run the following commands: library(rscproxy) library(rcom)

i think our strategy for privsep is to just keep portable sync'd closely with openbsd's tree, even though things will be broken wrt privsep for many platforms. then we just get primary one's working and work out issues as we go along. i'll start to work on sun and hp-ux again tomorrow.

Package: logcheck Version: 1.2.32 Severity: wishlist /etc/cron.daily/sysklogd restarts syslogd at the end of the script. This causes a daily log message, currently missed by logcheck: Jan 14 06:55:22 pyloric syslogd 1.4.1#16: restart (remote reception). I'm currently using this regex in ignore.server.d/local-syslogd: ^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ syslogd 1\.4\.1#16: restart \(remote

Hi all! Is anybody here using rsyslog? I am looking for the right solution how to use rsyslog in CentOS 5 as the default logging daemon. We use it because of filtering using regular expressions. I switched from sysklogd to rsyslog simply using chkconfig --del syslog chkconfig --add rsyslog chkconfig rsyslog on service syslog stop service rsyslog start but this seems not to be

Hello all! Sirrix AG, Saarbr?cken (manufacturer of the Sirrix.PCI4S0 4-port ISDN card for Asterisk) has released the new Asterisk dialplan command PPPD (app_pppd). It allows to connect a Linux PPP daemon to an arbitrary digital (ISDN) Asterisk channel to provide RAS dialin and dialout. The PPPD command has successfully been tested with Sirrix.PCI4S0 cards and a standard ISDN4Linux ipppd "on

Greetings. I wrote a script that make remote backups with rsync. I have 2 main problems with it 1) I want that the destination directory (on the repository machine) recreate the backed up file path and it permission (I use -R here ) 2) Is there a way to "follow" all the links using -R and -a parameters..?? Currently I am using something like this. rsync -al --delete

Hi there, I am slightly confused by the RHEL release notes and an earlier thread here about rsyslogd, so I hope someone can clear this up for me; I see that rsyslog is included in RHEL as of 5.2 (and so will be available in CentOS when 5.2 is ready) however there is no indication of whether it has been made the default syslogger or not - is it an optional package or installed by default on a

Hi All, This has to be something simple....but it's really busting my chops. We have a PXE boot server that is used for initial installation of a number of operating systems and it works well. However the CentOS 5.1 x86_64 install is seriously broken. We've made the PXE boot images available from "centos/5/os/x86_64/images/pxeboot/" in the tftp boot etc. We've rsynced

The opposite (trying to boot a HVM domain while a regular paravirtualized domain is running) crashes the system as well. I

Package: logcheck Version: 1.2.20a Severity: important Since logcheck changed to run as user logcheck, the error mails of the cron daemon end up in /var/mail/logcheck where nobody reads them. Mails for logcheck should be aliased to root like all the other mails of system accounts. I was searching for a long time what was wrong with my logcheck not delivering any mails.

Package: logcheck Version: 1.2.32 Severity: normal It seems when someone runs a sudo command on my system, logcheck misses it. The second line of /etc/logcheck/violations.d/sudo matches them, but the /etc/logcheck/violations.ignore.d/logcheck-sudo kills them. Furthermore, when users run commands like '$ sudo rm *' in a directory with lots of files, we reports with lines like: Jan 13

Hi, I recently had a machine filling up its harddisk with syslog and tinc pilling up milions of messages like this: "Error while reading from Linux ethertap device /dev/net/tun: File descriptor in bad state" I remembered that there was a difference between rsyslog and other loggers, where one of those was skipping those messages, and simply was displaying: "this message has been
