I use a script to start kermit (use .kermrc to log me in,

Ah, I have a problem with this. I don't thin kyou are doing people any
|

favors here. All you are doing is delayign the inevitable day that sit
|
|
down at another unix system thinking they 'know' it, and none of their
|
|
commands work!
|
|
|
|
Now, if you wanted to build batch files that printed out "try <unix
|
|
command>" whenever they typed a dos command, THAT i see as a useful
|
|
learnign tool...

Why on earth do you want to cripple UNIX? There are plenty of commands
|
|
on my system i have never used, but they are there so that when I DO need
|
|
them, I ahve them available. They don't 'get in my way' so why remove
|
|
them? Also, unless you expurgate the man pages as well, you are just
|
|
setting up a formula for frustration when they learnt o use amn and then
|
|
find whats in it doesnt exist on their system
|
|
|
|
>
|
|
>Agreed, no need for vi or emacs. Go with joe or pico.
|
|
|
|
I'll disagre here too. The one thing about vi is that it is ALWAYS
|
|
available. I have found that I am in demand at work to answer vi
|
|
questiosn all the time for people who were 'never going to use it' and
|
|
then find them,selves in a vanilla unics enviuronment where their
|
|
favorite editor hasn't been installed.
|
|
|
|
I wont say vi is great, or even good when it comes to interface, but it
|
|
IS powerful and ALWAYS there.

Again, why eliminate this just to eliminate it??? Uts beter to keep the
|
|
optiosn open so your users can grow. Also, what do you mean when you say
|
|
'no networking'. Certain basic network services, such as sockets, are
|
|
so built into UNIX that you will break code that lives locally if you
|
|
remove them. One of the ncie thiungs about UNXI networkign is this
|
|
transparency...
|
|
|
|
>re: No scsi

Oh. So you want to DECREASE the number of users who can use your
|
|
system??? PArdon me, but thsi is just bizzare.

But what about mice? They are STILLgoing to have to through some
|
|
configuration anyway. Its enough just to give reasonable defaults (now,
|
|
if you want to make std_vga16 the default, thats fine, though thats what
|
|
I have and its a VERY small X screen... just about unusable...)
|
|
|
|
If you want to make this thing accessible, though, stay FAR AWAY from
|

making it necessreay to use X to use or configure the system. Many user
|
|
(such as myself) don't have 8+meg of memory and arent about to spend the

|
money. Ther SCO admin-shell approach is alot friendlier to the wallet.

To me this stinks of windows-pandering. Rather then saying 'if windows

I have similar feelings. But since CD-ROMs costs $1.50 to press in bulk

(including the crystal box) why do you have to save space?

|
|
|

Yeah i think you are wasting your time. Among other thinsg you have
|
|
comepletely ignored what I consider to be the BIGGEST problem with asking
|
|
DOS/Windows user to use UNIX-- administration. A DOS or Windows system
|
|
can be set up and more or less left alone and it will continue to run
|
|
properly. A UNIX system needs a certain level of
|
|
administration/maintainence. I don't thin kyou can change thgis. UNIX's
|
|
biggest strength is its multi-user cpapabilities, these also lead to its
|
|
admin needs. If you eliminate that, you might as well use OS/2 (or even
|
|
DOS).
|
|
|
|
FInally, if you DO get peopel to use this thing, for all of the rasons I
|
|
listed above, they will be lost when they try to use any OTHER UNIX
|
|
station, so i don't see that you've taught them anything.
|
|
|
|
Sorry to be so negative, but thats how I see it.

Subject: Bug in PPP code?

Hi
|
|
|
|
I recently tried to put my PPP interface into promiscuous mode by accident
|
|
with 'tcpdump -p' and got this fault:
|
|
|
|
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address c0000000
|
|
current->tss.cr3 = 00560000, [r3 = 00560000

|
|
|
|
I've been able to reproduce this, but it only happens the first time I try to
|
|
do it - subsequent attempts go unpunished.
|
|
|
|
Where am I supposed to be looking in the above message for a pointer into my
|
|
system map?
|
|
|
|
Cheers

Any thoughts?

Subject: Shared Memory IPC
|
|
Date: 28 Sep 1994 06:43:31 GMT
|
|
|
|
I'm working on a project that needs to use a shared memory
|
|
block for interprocess communication in Linux. (I know there are
|
|
better ways for doing IPC, but this project specifically REQUIRES
|
|
shared memory.) In particular, I'd like to be able to map memory
|
|
pages from process A into the memory space of process B.
|
|
|
|
I was thinking that the phys() mmap() functions might help, but
|
|
according to my man page, phys() is not implemented.
|
|
|
|
Any suggestions would be most appreciated (e-mail or post)!

As I read my License (GPL), I find no clause that allows even

the copyright holder[s] to revoke my rights under the license.

|
|
|
What the copyright holder[s] may do is release another edition
|
|
(possibly identical in content) under another license.
