I'm usually an Arch user who has been stuck with Ubuntu 64bit on a USB stick due to my hard drives failing, anyway, this is more of a general linux question but are there any WLM clients that support MSNP18? I mainly want Windows Live Group support and to be honest, it's the one thing keeping Windows on my machine.
View 1 RepliesI know WEP is frowned upon and enverone should be using WPA. And my hostapd AP is working with WPA clients. However, I would like to alow some older clients that can only "talk" WEP to connect. All my attempts so far have failed! Can anyone point me in the right direction? The hostapd.conf file comments suggests that hostapd can support WEP. There are no contraindications or flags that I can find in the defconfig file that suggest that a WEP module needs to be complied-in to the final make.

For this question you should consider a single process, single thread server that can support exactly 2 clients at once, the server simply forwards whatever is sent from one client to the other (in both directions). Your server must not insist on any specific ordering of messages as soon as something is sent from one client it is immediately forwarded to the other client. As soon as either client terminates the connection the server can exit

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to find out when QME2572 (Qlogic) card became support by the kernel. We have a RHEL 5.1 system that is moving to new hardware, however the kernel at this release doesn't support the new hardware, due to the Qlogic card change. I tired the Redhat KB and Bugzilla. Is there a Kernel change list etc I can search. Never really played around with the kernel too much so I'm just after some pointers for looking up this information. Offically its not supported until Redhat 5.3, I'm trying trying to research kernel info so I can tell the customer they have to upgrade.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm looking to dual-boot Windows 7 and Debian 6 upon its release on my sister's laptop. I want to share a partition between the two of them so that /home points to this directory and the Windows equivalent also points to it (C:Users).
Anyway, I've heard good and bad things about the NTFSMount driver (I think it's NTFS-3G now) and the NTFSprogs project and so I am not so certain what I should believe. I do know that NTFS has relatively high overhead, though I do not recall the source of this assertion, so I am considering the use of EXFAT. An open source EXFAT project is hosted on Google Code at [url] and it utilizes the kernel module FUSE.
I'm quite certain that I've got everything covered on the Windows side -- that is, I know that both NTFS and EXFAT will be suitable filesystems for my required usage.
My issue is that I'm curious which will have superior performance and stability in Debian. I planned on building the package from source and mounting the device in my FSTAB but I have also found a PPA for Ubuntu on Launchpad at [url] that I could borrow the debian/rules from and make a .deb package from.
What do you guys think? Should I go at it with the EXFAT or NTFS partitioning? Is NTFS-3G actually fairly supported at this point? Or perhaps should I consider some alternate method?
I have also considered that the only files she will be sharing are those of music, videos, and pictures so it could be better to just link /home/xxxx/Pictures (Music and Videos, too) to the new partition instead of all of /home.
I would like to know if it is possibile to have support for wi-fi midi support in linux.

I administrat a school in Denmark, with around 40 clients runnig xp pro and a windows 2003 server, but i read about the possibility of running a linux server, with thin clintes that can run from the server, if it has network pxe boot.
I was wondering if anybody now any links to a good how to page, on what is needed on the setup side of the server, and clients. To make it work. And i have to use my dhcp from the win 2003 server. Is that possible.
I've been tasked with updating some Ubuntu based workstations. Some are running 8.04 and some are running 9.10. Due to poor internet speed and busy internal network traffic I can't use the update manager.
I have mounted the 10.04 iso locally on the workstations in question. What is the procedure for updating the pc using the terminal? do I use apt-get or is there a program on the iso file system that I run.
I've been using synergy for a while and love it. I recently upgraded both of my desktop PCs at home from 9.10 to 10.04 (both x64 ubuntu studio). Now, Synergy doesn't appear to want to work. I've tested with both the cli command referencing a config file on the server and using quicksynergy on both machines and it just doesn't connect. I verified on my "server" that synergy is listening on port 24800 (can telnet to that port from the client machine). I manually disabled the firewall on both machines as well and it doesn't seem to make a difference. It never gives an error on the client, it just never makes the connection. I've tested this with 2 separate 10.04 clients. I also brought one of these boxes (a laptop) to work where I use Synergy between 2 windows boxes. It won't connect to those either.
I've tried connecting both using hostname and IP address (both worked in the past on 9.10) and neither work.
Im having a problem with our pxe environment. We have around 200 clients per server to boot from tftp and when we hit 250 the service just freezes. So, our options are to either add more servers or move to a more robust protocol. Is this feasible?? How can clients boot from ftp?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHow do I start a script on an ssh server which then starts another script on another ssh server?
Long Explaination I would love to be able to connect to a server with ssh and start a script there which sends a magic packet to my client and waits till it answers the ping. This script is already working, without any problems. After the client started I would love to be able to ssh into the freshly booted client and start another script that starts a Virtual Machine and waits for the ping to answer. The script is working, but how do I start the second script directly from the first one? Best thing would be if I wouldn't have to put in the ssh password again (as it is the same user and the same password).
I install clonezilla onto ubuntu but I cant get the clients to boot and the steps i find in the tutorials don't really help or apply.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn the last week or so, I've frequently been running out of X server client connection slots and getting "Maximum number of clients reached" errors. For example, I'm getting it right now and I'm running 3 pterms, Chrome, and Thunderbird; I've even killed my panel. 'xwininfo -root -children' produces what seems to be an absurd number of X clients (150-ish, when it's able to make a connection), even immediately after Gnome/Xfce startup.
It doesn't take long. A day at most. I've had this system up and running for months, and this just started happening. I did install some X development libraries (x11proto-core-dev, libmotif-dev, x11proto-print-dev, and x11proto-xext-dev plus their dependencies) about two weeks ago, but this problem has not been happening that long. I've installed other packages, but nothing that would seem to have any relation to this problem. I've logged out and in, rebooted, and changed from Gnome to Xfce, and none of the changes helped.

I have got a 10.4 LTS LTSP server running as i needed it should do.
When i boot-up one of the terminal it sees the DHCP and starts loading from the LTSP all working ok.... when it gets the login screen some of the terminals get the box on the screen to enter the user name and password. the other terminal dose not.
The work around i have got is that i have to click on the blank screen at the bottom left to get the "pick a session" button then i can login and can login as normal.
When all the clients login all is well, And works as if the system was loaded locally its fast and at the mow its reliable. The only thing that is not working as it should is the log in screen.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Ubuntu 10.04 desktop VM that is running torrent software, and it is saving the files to a samba share (which is actually the host it is running on). I have also tested from another Ubuntu box on the network and it experiences the same problem.
The problem I am having is that any torrent client on a Ubuntu machine or VM can't save to the samba share, but a WinXP torrent client can download the same torrent and save to the share with no problem.
I created a public share, and the problem seems to be that I cannot edit files after I create them. It seems that samba is ignoring the create mask and creating files as rw-r--r-- instead of rw-rw-rw-

I've used Transmission for about a year now, and i haven't had any problems with it. But a couple of weeks ago it suddenly wouldn't connect to any peers. It gets peer list from tracker, then nothing happens.Ive tried using different clients (Vuze and Deluge) and the same story goes for both. Ive tried restarting the router in case of any DNS crap, getting nothing.Ive installed Firestarter only to create an exception for traffic on the torrent ports (even though it probably is pointless)Now both google and myself seem to be out of ideas. Does anybody have something i could try out and possibly fix this. Everything points to some software issue...
