I installed Debian GNU/Linux and Debian GNU/kFreeBSD on the same system. I didn't reinstall grub with kfreebsd, because I figured running grub-mkconfig would modify grub.cfg. But it didn't.It recognized the Debian GNU/kFreeBSD as GNU/Linux (6.0.1):
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ###
Found Debian GNU/Linux (6.0.1) on /dev/sda3
### END /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ###
Another option that nobody suggested me to boot Wheezy is to use the kfreebsd kernel. Although, I installed the BSD kernel, I am still unable to boot Debian using it. To do this I am using the grub-pc shell.Could anyone explain the meaning of these lines and how they relate to Debian?

In process of installing gnome have hit an error wall from dpkg too many errors. Tried increasing the allowed errors in dpkg.cfg to 150 and still get the errors. The errors now come up on any apt-get install.

I checked the md5sum of the iso image, and the integrity of the DVD passes, but when I run the kfreebsd-amd64 DVD I get to the partitioner stage, set out my partitions, click 'yes' to format and then my computer reboots. Is this a known error or a bad burn?

Running GNU/kFreeBSD debian 8.1-1-amd64 and base system working. Can not get X or xrandr to co-operate and use proper resolution of 1680x1050. I believe the basis of this is that it using the VESA drivers and instead should be using the INTEL drivers.
I have no 'pkg_add' for ports, plus obviously no Debian repos will help for this .... unless there are some specific kFreeBSD repos I dont know about? I can post more details on the system, but am hoping that there are other options besides compiling. I can do that if need be, but not even sure which one to use. Will these work on this system?

View 2 Replies View Relatedi am trying to get a pxe server working on a debian so other clients can boot off it. the problem has two parts.
1. getting the pxe working. so far the tftp part doesnt work. the client says tftp error. so i guess the dhcp portion is working, but theres something wrong with the /var/lib/tftpboot or the deamon config itself.
2. the other issue is that in the shop many system's have non-working disk drives. also many of them do not have a usb boot option in the bios. all i need to do is get the "bare" kernel file or grub(?) to boot over pxe and give me the ability to boot from a usb flash drive and load the rest of the linux files from there. my primary intention is NOT netinstall. although it wouldnt hurt. my intention is running a linux live usb on systems without bios usb boot support. ive read somewhere that a full pxe live boot requires nfs setup. i am asking for that, just so i can boot from a flash drive.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI posted a previous topic on bridging, and that didn't seem to work, so I went with Shorewall and I'm trying to setup NAT, but I'm struggling very badly. I have the interfaces configured where eth1 is my Local LAN (loc) network, and eth0 connects to my ISP (net). But my problem is that I have no clue how to forward traffic from eth1 to eth0, without using ProxyARP, which routes all traffic to eth1, and doesn't allow traffic out on itself. I've looked at the NAT tutorials, and they don't make sense to me, because I have two interfaces that I want to be able to talk to each other and the internet at the same time. Is there anyone who's good with Shorewall?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm new here, I hope someone can help me get wireless working on my laptop. This is a Toshiba Satellite Pro C650-EZ1533 (Intel Core i3). The Toshiba site says it has "Atheros Wireless networking (802.11b/g/n)", but does not identify the hardware more specifically.
I installed Debian 6.0 from a netinstall disc, the version including nonfree hardware drivers. In the software selection I went with the defaults: only "Desktop environment", "Laptop" and "Basic system".
Now the GUI looks nice and behaves OK, and the audio, video, ethernet, and optical drive are working. However, I don't know how to configure wireless. It's probably my fault. I was installing and uninstalling file managers, trying to find one I would like better than Nautilus. When I went to uninstall one of them, a message in the package manager recommended using a command like "auto remove" or similar (I did not record it exactly). My understanding at the time was that this would only remove things that were installed because of dependencies but were no longer needed. However, *a lot* of things disappeard from the menus.
Now the only thing about networking in the menus is something about setting up a proxy. There should be some sort of network manager, right? Or an icon on the taskbar, maybe? But I don't know what package to install.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like to discuss setting up a mail server and its implications and alternatives. First, let us see if I have understood this correctly: A mail server consists of many different components. First, a server to listen to any mail inbound for a specific domain (say postfix), and then a POP3/IMAP server (say dovecot). Then, I should somehow configure the rules by which all mail is forwarded to their respective owners. This should be fairly simple by using debians package managers and dselect or whatever program it is that sets up right packages by use cases at the install.
But now lets assume a more complicated environment, where there are multiple users with different domains and needs. First, we need to send mail to ourselves from webapps for instance for backup purposes. So let's say we have a domain called domain.com setup, and we want to send mail to backup@domain.com. Unfortunately, some configuration issue makes the application get confused, because it is trying to send mail to itself, but doesn't quite understand what it should do. How can this problem can be solved?
Second, how could I configure different domains with different rules. For instance, if I want one domain to have a catch-all account, where random email sent to erroneous accounts is captured? Or if I want to create accounts which are not based on actual Debian accounts, but instead just random usernames (say, danny@domain.com, mike@domain.com, support@domain.com etc.)?
Finally, which are the best web-guis for doing such configuration? What if the customer wants to himself add accounts? I cannot require him to edit text files - especially if he can thus break the whole configuration for other customers as well.. postfix-admin is one, but it is quite crude-looking. Is there something which integrates both postfix, apache and dovecot configuration? How about Webmin?
