Well that's in quotes, so it's just a character string, but lest somebody mistake it for an assertion... Cygwin was developed by Cygnus Support, a company that was founded (at least in part) by John Gilmore of EFF fame. It predates RedHat by about five years. The made money selling support services for GNU software (hence the name cyGNUs). In addition to Cygwin, they did some work on gcc, and hosted the guile project for a while (Guile is GNU Scheme). They were bought by RedHat shortly after the RedHat IPO had them rolling in cash. I don't mean to get too pedantic, but next someone will be telling me that Microsoft developed DOS, and I'll have to really rant. Typing http://www.cygnus.com/ just takes you to RedHat, but http://www.redhat.com/about/presscenter/cygnus_1999/redhat-cygnus111599.html gives RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C. and SUNNYVALE, CA---November 15, 1999---Red Hat®, Inc.

gnome desktop menus?

by Bill Mills-Curran

I've installed RedHat 8.0 on my system, and I've decided to finally wean myself from fvwm2 and use the default setup. I've been poking around trying to figure out how to add entries to the panel menus. There doesn't seem to be a gui interface to do it. (There is a gui to add stuff to the desktop and to the panel, but not the menus.) I suspect that the secret handshake is contained in /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/ directories, but I haven't found the secret decoder ring to help figure out the right way to do this. My main motivation is to add some favorite applications to the menus for my family. They are not about to use the command line. Does anyone have any suggestions? TIA, Bill

After two hours on the phone Mon afternoon with Qwest tech support level 2, they insisted I try ping/traceroute with the firewall disabled. Pings moved through as expected ...hmmmm I'd been through the firewall code so many times I just about had it memorized, so I decided to look at the file rc.firewall.blocked which it reads, which has of a list of IPChains statements blocking IP#s (which the main firewall doesn't do). I hadn't really updated this much recently, because when someone started banging on the firewall, it was tough to know if it was a static IP or not. Anyways ... found TWO entries that were <Home IP#>/24 and <Home network>/24 ... basically the same thing. Don't remember putting THOSE in there <g> When I rebuilt the last hacked machine (EFO) I copied rc.firewall and rc.firewall.blocked from the home machine, because I couldn't read the copies I'd backed up from EFO.... so the block against the Home IP was at both ends of the link. The only mystery is why everything worked for two hours Friday night before I reloaded the EFO firewall -- because the rc.firewall.blocked file hadn't been changed in more than a week, and had already been loaded with the firewall when I first brought up the EFO server on Friday. Now if I could get any takers on finding out why none of my servers can send email to each other (but only each other) since they were upgrade from RH7.0 to RH7.3 (sendmail 8.11.6) I'll be all set.

Didn't even think of my firewall; my server I have to bounce every once in a while because I was cheap on the hardware for it. :) Paltry compared to the rarified heights of those HP-UX boxen, but: Veil# uptime 01:31:29 up 124 Days (2980h), load average: 0.00 0.00 0.00 Veil# uname -a Linux Veil 2.2.18 #1 Fri Dec 15 23:32:10 EST 2000 i386 unknown Veil# Not bad.

Before there's a flood of "check out MY uptime" mails, can I suggest that the minimum threshold be 730 days (2 years)? ;) THAT I'd like to hear about. -Chuck

BTW: I don't think I posted this here yet: I'm the sysadmin for BBLISA, and had to reboot the server a few months ago. At the time, "uptime" reported: 1:02pm up 236 days, 17:53, 1 user, load average: 0.09, 0.18, 0.20 However, there is a "bug" in the Linux kernel which wraps the uptime counter after 400-something days. Here's the information from the root partition superblock. ;) Filesystem UUID: 5bdddb0e-1213-11d4-9f43-00400550fefc Filesystem magic number: 0xEF53 Filesystem OS type: Linux Last mount time: Tue Aug 15 17:40:11 2000 Last write time: Mon Aug 19 13:01:00 2002 Last checked: Tue Aug 15 17:40:08 2000 Check interval: 15552000 (6 months) Next check after: Sun Feb 11 16:40:08 2001 So 2 years and almost 4 days of straight uptime... <sigh> -- Randomly Generated Tagline: "If it works, don't mess with it" - School Graduate
