Get yourself the newest Term-HOWTO on sunsite. There it is described how to
|
|
arrange this. If yoiu cannot find it let me know. I can send you a copy of
|
|
it. In that case just tell me in what form you want to have it(ascii, postscript, latex).

This is beside the point. What if it is ABSOLUTELEY essential that
|
|
several people have root privileges? You can't run a medium sized
|
|
site without having more than one person with root access. I'm not
|

So how is this less dangerous? Using su means several people have to

know root's password -- not a nice situation. I think this is what the

Several people have complained that confusion will reign or that you
|
|
will run into serious trouble if several users have the same ID. So
|
|
far NO ONE has pointed out a real problem, except for the bug (IMHO)
|
|
in the passwd program. What IS the problem?

There is some software available for this, but I have found a quick
|
|
way to monitor access is to login as that user and then press the up
|
|
arrow key. Keep pressing it, and it will show you all of the commands
|
|
that the particular user executed in their last session. Of course it
|
|
will not monitor what they did in different editors, and mail programs,
|
|
but it is better than nothing.

I need to ask your help again in this embarrassing booting problem of mine.
|

Here is a more detailed description of it.
|

|

The Pentium machine has a 1 GB SCSI disk that was partitioned as:
|
|
1) MS-DOS (C disk) 123 MB /dev/sda1
|
|
2) MS_DOS (D disk) 150 MB /dev/sda5
|
|
3) Linux tmp 200 MB /dev/sda6
|
|
4) Linux root 500 MB /dev/sda7
|
|
5) Linux swap 30 MB /dev/sda8
|
|
|
|
|
|
The original DOS partitioning (123/880) was done by the PC distributor.
|
|
|
|
The DOS D disk was never used and was obviously not properly configured
|
|
from the view of DOS because it prevented installation of some DOS software.
|
|
So I removed the logical drive D (DOS FDISK showed the EXT partition size
|
|
was 880 MB and the D disk held 150 MB). After this little oparation
|
|
the DOS problems disappeared but linux does not boot at all.

One of the last two Dr. Dobbs' Journal has an article expressly on writing
|
|
a print filter in C for the LaserJet 4M, including printcap entry. You
|
|
may want to check that out. Although he developed it under SunOS, he
|
|
explicitly mentions Linux as another place it can be used.

I tried to compile/run Alex on my very small Linux box (386DX/40, 8MB RAM,

HDD 210 MB). It is possible to compile it, using special patch for Linux.
|
|
It worked after several changes in script files, due to slow line (38kbps)
|
|
I could only ls something. Sorry, but I can't remember any details - it was
|
|
some time ago.

You'd better place it to Your private .xinitrc file. This is much better.

You could also start it with xon from another machine, if You don't work

: Hi there,
|
|
|
|
: I currently have LILO running as the boot manager. But now I would
|
|
: like to remove that. I believe once I removed it, there will be no boot
|
|
: manager, thus my MS-DOS partition won't be reached?
|
|
|
|
: Can someone direct me in nicely removing LILO so that either my MS-DOS
|
|
: partition will boot up, or my new OS will boot up?
|
|
|
|
I think that there are mainly two methods :
|
|
- lilo -u would remove lilo if you kept the file that describes your
|
|
partition map before lilo installation (normally, in /boot directory, if you
|
|
are slackware and FSSTND)
|
|
- more basically, if you want to boot dos and your dos version is higher
|
|
than 5.0 you can try at the dos prompt : fdisk /MBR . This command replaces
|
|
your current MasterBootRecord with the DOS one.
|
|
|
|
(all of that is explained clearly in the file :
|
|
sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/Linux-boot/lilo/lilo.u.14.ps.gz).
|
|
|
|
|
|
: Thanks in advance.
|

I fully agree with these two opinions.

...and even the older Mach8 Card is better than any stupid-VGA

|

...but You can forbid services.
|

There is the file inetd.sec
|
|
Here you can specify services and address-patterns for allowing and

|
denying inet-services.
