I am not sure how many Slackware users are subscribed to this list, but
just in case, I have created a detailled instruction list to do the above.
Please feel free to give me feedback.

Hi,
I've lately been thinking about adding a PCI (< 2.2) SATA Controller
to one of my current machines (5 year old Athlon 800 on a VIA KT133
board), for future use as a fileserver (relegated to some place where
the noise won't disturb anyone). Of course I'd add in something like
2-4 large (> 200GB apiece) SATA disks for that task.
The boot drive would remain on the current SCSI-based setup, so there
won't be any issues with bootability from that new drive system.
Obviously, that thing must be able to work with Linux, using free
drivers. I don't necessarily need RAID functionality, as that can
be covered by software RAID. I *do* want that tagged command queueing
functionality, which is still only optional in SATA (unlike SCSI), but
which makes all the difference in performance for concurrent access to
the disks.
So, can anyone recommend any specific products, preferrably not
overly expensive, but reliable ones?
TIA, Eric
P.S. No, I'm not going to shell out big ¤¤¤ on huge SCSI drives ;-)
Hi
I have difficulties to mount my home on novell server.
ncpmount works fine, Whats my Problem is the passwdfile=... option.
This doesn't work. I try the command:
incpmount -o passwdfile=/home/alex/.pw -A <server>...
.pw is
Server/al:password
but I get the error message:
ncpmount: Unknown user (0x89FC) in find_conn_spec.
When I try directly with the -P and -U options, all works fine, even in
fstab.
But I won't use it, since my password is clearly visible for everyone.
I don't know what to do next.
Any ideas??
Thanx
Al

These few lines to remind everyone that the next LiLux meeting
is tonight, exceptionally on a wednesday, with a presentation
about OpenOffice.org and it's interaction with a MySQL database
by Georges Schutz. The time, as ever, is 20h00.
Greetings, Eric
Hi all,
As most of you might know I'm working at the mineco where we have a very
nice project called CASES (http://www.cases.lu/) about awarenesss raising
in IT security. We want to be vendor independant (legal obligation as
government) and as such attach our best practices with "real life"
examples. However at the moment we only have the M$ world represented (see
http://www.cases.public.lu/pratique/solutions/index.html) still seeking
for people providing use with screenshot procedures from the GNU/Linux
world.
For this we thought of using SUSE and a Fedora as model GNU/Linux systems.
If anyone (or his company) here on the list would be interessted to do
this job, we would be very glad ;)
N.B.: However this will be a no-remuneration job, all we can provide is
"advertising" via a CASES-partner thing ! So if one could do this on
behalf of LiLux it would be great, cause then we (LiLux) would be linked
on one of the biggest gov sites here in Lux ;)
Hope you could tease some of you and I'm looking forward for proposals ;)
ciao,

Hi
I try here to connect to a novell volume. ncpmount gives me the error
mesasage:
can't find the server.
I tried to connect to the server using his name, but this fails, I use its
IP, this fails too.Every time the same error message. Is it perhaps IPX
related?
Al
Dear all,
A collegue of mine came accross an application that
uses openssl/gnupg (that's what the commercial told
him).
But on their website, we couldn't find anything
related to the GPL or to openssl/gnupg.
Also, the application isn't available for download.
I have a few questions in regard to this.
- Is this in agreement with the GPL?
- Don't they have to mention they are using openssl?
- In what extend can they use it and no more need to
tell people about it? For example, if they modify the
source can they redristibute without making their
product availbe for download?
Thanks for your answers :)
Paulo
