Mailing list

Can the mailing list configuration be modified to have ilugc email id in
the reply to header? Replying to mails currently brings up the user's
private email id. If the reply posting has to be to the list, is it not
better off this way instead of having to hit reply all button and then
deleting email ids? Reply all will result in two copies of the mail to
the sender - one direct and one thro' the list! Painful when we handle
close to 400 mails from different mailing lists.

Bye

RE: force to change password

If the intent is to provide better login security for ssh, I'd recommend
the RSA key based authentication. You could write a script to create one
for every user, place it in his home directory and mail the user the
key.

Subject: [Ilugc] force to change password

Hello All,

I want to force the users to change the password after one month in my
linux server. I have done this using the command

passwd -x30 <userid>

Now when i login using telnet after 30 days it is asking me to change
the password. But if i login using ssh it just closes the session. How
to force password change when i use ssh?

Regards,
Keerthi

Setting  the Reply-To  address  to that  of  the mailing  list is  not
preferred  and there  are many  Why-not To's  about this  on  the web.
Search for `reply to munging' or some-such.

Happy Googling.....

Debian dselect problem

Hi,

I am installing debain woody 3.0. The base installation went fine. Using
tasksel i have installed few packages and it went fine. The access media
is our local ftp debian mirror. Finally, it was found that packages vim
and pine are NOT installed.

I tried dselect.

I selected vim. pine is not listed there.

When i hit Install, he is trying to install all the packages. I suspect 
that i have hit enter in 'All Packages' in 'Packages list main screen'.

How can i de-select these packages and install the one which i wish to?
Any suggestions or lights are welcome.

TIA.

regards, 
bhuvaneswaran

squid and redirector script

Hello All,

I am using squid as reverse proxy for domino mailserver.

For this i wrote a perl script for url rewrite but it does not work.

My perl script is

#!/usr/bin/perl

while ($url = <>) {
         <at> list = split("/", $url);
        $newurl="http:/";
        for($i=3;$i< <at> list;$i++) {
                $newurl=$newurl."/".$list[$i];
        }
        print "$newurl";
}

When i test this in command line ....

[root <at> squid bin]# ./redir.pl
http://squid.xyz.com/172.16.1.10/mail   --- Input
http://172.16.1.10/mail ---Output

but when i tired to run with squid my browser did not get any pages for long
time.

As i not familiar with perl can you  correct me if i done mistake in this
script.

history -c  will clear. For details look into man -a
history.

Delete .bash_history will also work

regarding buffer under option for CD writing !

I use a 24x CD writer and do all my CD writing  in Windows using Nero. 

Reason being that my writer supports "buffer under run" and varies its
write speed depending on the amount of content in the write buffer.
Now nero recognizes this and gives me an option to activate this.

Is there any GUI/command_line_option in Deb/RH/mdk/Gentoo/ to activate
this.....
I mean what can I add to 

"isoburn="cdrecord dev=0,0,0 speed=40 -eject" " to get the super link
activated ?

best regards
Tom !

Adding `driveropts=burnfree' gets to sort this out.

cdrecord dev=0,0,0 driveropts=burnfree -vv speed=40 -dao -eject -pad -data
                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Hth.

This is more or less a religious controversy sometimes.

Try using mutt with the L function (list-reply-to) after marking lists as 
such in your muttrc

subscribe ilug-c

should do the trick.
