Re: = sign in a ls-l ?

by Theo Van Dinter

The = is from "ls -F", it means it's a socket file (which we also see from the "s" file type in "ls -l" and the filename is also a good indicator). I have no experience with docker, but the error message and other quoted bits implies you're running things as user "admin" which I'd guess doesn't have user or group root privileges so you can't write to the file.

= sign in a ls-l ?

by Kevin Stratton

I am having trouble with getting pi-hole working with my Asustore NAS. I think I have traced it down to an issue with the docker install. I did verify that the docker CE (community edition) was also installed. Per a tutorial about docker, I should be able to run something like hello world and it will install. I may not have the name correctly entered, but I do not think in this case it matters (yet) admin@AS5202T-7085:/var/run $ docker run hello-world docker: Got permission denied while trying to connect to the Docker daemon socket at unix:///var/run/docker.sock: Post "http://%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fdocker.sock/v1.24/containers/create": dial unix /var/run/docker.sock: connect: permission denied.

Yeah, I was out busy last night so couldn't make it. Hope the meeting went well. Hudson has been fine, but Worcester also works for me since I'm in the middle. Moving it around to new locations to make it easy for people isn't a bad idea.

Cannot make it tonight on vacation with family. For future meetings, either WPI or a more Worcester-ish location would help.

Reminder: Meeting tonight! Topic: Intel Pocket PC (and possible give away!)

by Tim Keller

Hey Everybody! We've got a meeting tonight!! Location: Hudson Public Library Time: 7pm Topic: Intel Pocket PC running RetroArch, etc. I was given four of these tiny pocket pc's. I'm going to run RetroArch on one and see what we get. I also think they'd be cool as a plex driver for a TV as well. Beyond that, there's a lot going on in the linux world, from the Intel pay for features stuff to the Nvidia opening up ( a tiny bit ). We should also talk about where we'd like to host meetings. I reached out to Frank and it looks like WPI is back on the table. Would that work better for people? See ya there! Tim. -- I am leery of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".
