similar to: Can't upgrade R properly with Debian potato

Hello- This is off-tpoic, but of interest. There's a remote exploit bug on rsync, that was posted on Linux Today. I post this here because apparently it hasn't been mentioned (yet) on the Debian security advisory. The package list is not updated either. Perhaps this is what happened to CRAN when it was cracked... Maybe you admins at CRAN would want to contact the debian-security

The trojaned ssh client is nothing new to the hacker community, and the statement in the previous thread claiming "This type of man-in-the-middle attack (trojaned ssh) is not theoretical anymore, and password authentication is broken." is an example of how many poeple still think "hacking" is something very difficult and nothing short of a genius is required to make the

Thanks for the module, I think its a good idea to commit it to FreeBSD for a few reasons: 1) Some folks just prefer more static kernels. 2) Securelevel is a great thing, but can be a pain to do upgrades around remotely. [A lot of folks use FreeBSD simply because its a breeze to run remotely]. 3) Until someone writes code to add modules to a kernel via /dev/mem and releases it to the script

Hello- Since my data bank in SPSS has > 40 variables, I think that R crashes because of the memory limit. In Maindonald?s UsingR text, on pg 3, there?s a footnote that reads: "If you want larger memory space than the default you may want a target akin to <path to binary>\rw091\bin\rgui.exe --visize 30M --nsize 1000K [The default is --vsize 6M --nsize 250K

Greetings all, I'm trying to create a CentOS 4.4 kickstart CD (not a network install), duplicating what I've done for Fedora Core 3. I am having a cirular dependency for initscripts, which causes initscripts not to be installed (no /etc/inittab when the boot gets to INIT) The cascade is: initscripts-7.39.25.EL-1.centos4 requires /sbin/nash /sbin/nash is in mkinitrd-4.2.1.8-1

Hello- While I was reading a tutorial book for R (actually, for S-Plus:Brian S. Everitt. A Handbook of Statistical Analysis using S-PLUS. Chapman & Hall, London, 1994) I tried to execute this simple exercise: > x <- -c(1,2,3,4,5,6) > X <- -c(10,11,12,100,-5,-6) >x+X [1] -11, -13, -15, -104, 0, 0 As you can see, the added vectors resulted in

Hi all, I hope this is the correct list to post such a question. I was trying to install the R-project on Debian and encountered significant problems with the same. The main problem is the installation of the libc6 package. I need this package in order to install the R-core package. However, the libc6 is dependent on the libdb1-compat package, which just refuses to install on my server.

if I set "inherit permissions = Yes" on my share, samba shuld set permisions for new files like uper directory - true? I'am asking because, I've set this parameter and nothing is going good. When I make new file in this share the groupID is set to user groupID whose create this file, but not the guid of the uper directory. The userID is set corectly. smb.conf: .... [test]

There is a recent article in the German magazine C''t that may be of interest to those on this list. It describes a cracker program, Juggernaut, which can hijack telnet sessions. The program is written specifically to run under Linux. An english translation of the article is available at: http://www.ix.de/ct/english/9710142/ It also mentions that they are working on a version of the

Is there some automated system to import windows accounts into a samba or a samba ldap situation? I've got a few hundred users on an NT domain, and I'd like to migrate them sometime before the last piece of hardware supported by NT4 rusts. Right now several linux based samba servers are doing all of the heavy lifting (shared files printers etc), but they are all looking at the domain

Hi- Is there a quick way to plot a Pareto diagram? I couldn't find one. I'm being forced to do some pretty weird stuff, with awk and all, to extract data in order to plot the frequency of qualitative data from a larger set. Perhaps it's just my GNUrance. I mean, one day, if I have time, I might even write a generic Perl script, but right now, it doesn't look too good on the

Just today I compilied openssh-2.1.1p1 on Debian Slink and Potato both to come out with the same problem. I am compiling them with openssl-0.9.5a.. The configure line I use for openssh is below: ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc/ssh --prefix=/usr --with-ssl-dir=../openssl-0.9.5a So I compile, do a make install restart the sshd daemon and everything seems fine. Then when I do a w at the prompt

Hello- Tired of the crashes I was experiencing with r 1.2.1 on Windows ME, I downloaded the r-1.2.1.tgz under my Debian Linux box. I untared, unzipped and then I ./configure and make as specified i the FAQ. But something went wrong...I had version 0.90 per-installed, as it comes with the normal Debian distribution and now, whenever I run R, the old version is the one that executed. Can

Hey guys. I have a server that is owned by me and can confirm through servint that it is owned by me. I would like to do a penetration test and of course to allow you to upload files on the server and kind of trash it to the point where it is always restarting and running out of memory etc etc. This is going to be mainly script kiddie stuff, however will be able to get you hired on with me for

Hi, the implementation of xl cpupool-numa-split is broken. It basically deals with only one poolid, but there are two to consider: the one from the original root CPUpool, the other from the newly created one. On my machine the current output looks like: root@dosorca:/data/images# xl cpupool-numa-split libxl: error: libxl.c:2803:libxl_create_cpupool Could not create cpupool error on creating
