try a man 'crontab'.  It appears that if you use the crontab command
(crontab <-u username> -r filename) to replace the existing filename with
the new, edited filename...as the new crontab for the user specified or as
you if you don't specify any user, it *DOES* take effect immediately.

works here at least :-)

I had a really weird one here: I got the stat() message on setterm and
swapon while booting up. I recompiled both and the problem went away.
Now I just booted Linux and the stat() messages are back!!!

There is really nothing linux-specific in it. It compiled on Ultrix

I think it would be very useful if one of the archive maintainers

hi.
finally i got config to say something other than "socket: Protocal not supp..."
still i have problems. *:-)
our university is the net 140.78 in Austria. the pc where i want to install
linux is on a subnet at this university, 140.78.4, and the pc itself should
be assigned the ip-number 140.78.4.41.
The gateway is (that is the ROUTER, from the /usr/etc/inet/rc.local ???)
140.78.4.31.

I try to startup the device now:

> #!/bin/sh
> config loopback 127.0.0.1
> config -r 140.78.4.31 -n 140.78.4.0 -d eth0 140.78.4.41
> inetd

okey. when I try to telnet outside, i get "wd8003 timeout ...", and telnet
into doesn't connect either (doing a ps on the linux host I c that telnetd is
never started)

I may or may not add

> config loopback 140.78.4.41

this line simply doesn't matter ...

Somewhere in the source i have read "No need for a net-mask", well, i trust
the source :) Also, I am not sure about the -n value.
Should I use the subnet (140.78.4.0) or should I use the whole local-net
(140.78.0.0) ..... (Tried both, none worked, or, well, i'm just to confused
about having to boot every 10 minutes or so ....)




Also, in /usr/etc/inet/resolv.conf i have entered: domain-name & 2 name servers
But named cannot find named.boot. Where is this file ? Couldn't get it in the
distribution ...


Who has connected the wd-card using linux/tcpip to the net successfully ?

I'm thinking of getting some type of notebook computer.
Ideally I'd like a SPARCbook but that's too expensive.
Does anyone have any experience of using Linux/X11/XView
on a 486 based notebook in running Sun applications?
If so what would be a reasonable type of minimum configuration
to run a few XView based tasks (e.g. textedit, olwm, a few cmdtool's)?
Would a Gateway 2000 Nomad 425DXL be a good machine for this
type of use?
Any other words of advice?

The font directories are defined in /usr/X386/lib/X11/Xconfig.
Maybe you are using the wrong Xconfig.
X is normally started via startx which is a shellscript which then
will start xinit. It makes no sense to start X386mono alone (beside
testing purposes). Just make ln -s X386mono X , edit your Xconfig so
it has definitions for vga2 and do startx. I think the exact things are
discussed in the READMEs.

Subject: XawVen.so.2.1 exec format error
Organization: Alchemy International
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 1992 16:33:39 GMT

I have linux 0.09.3 installed on a 33 Mhz 386 system with an et4000 based
vga card, and a 50 meg root and ~10 meg swap partition.  I have had XFree86
version 1.1 installed and working for some time now.

Recentley I have encountered an odd problem.  After I do a shutdown or reboot,
when I log and start X I get the normal:

speedup mode selected
flags=0x3f

Then the X screen twinges and dies with an error:

xterm can't loaf library XawVen.so.2.1
exec format error

and back to the bash prompt.

Now, if I go to xbin2.1.tar.Z and put a fresh copy of /lib/XawVen.so.2.1
in place all is well, util after I shutdown or reboot.

I have tried making XawVen.so.2.1 read/executable only to everybody, including
it's owner.  Then when I start X it comes up with it's grey screen and hangs
dead in the water.

Some additional facts that may be helpful..

1) Things where working fine until I played with shutdown and reboot, making
   them suid root so normal users could shutdown the system.  This box is
   mostley used for DOS, but a few folks like playing with unix.  I need a
   way non root's can shut the sytem down without me being around.  After
   the problems started I brought fresh copies of shutdown and reboot in
   from diskettes and that did not solve the problem.

2) When the system is shut down, it just says can't unmount and a blank.
   At home my root disk name is in there.  At work it is /dev/hda2 but
   it does not show up.  I have updated the kernel and rebuilt it a few
   times and this does not go away.

So, do any of you have ideas on 1) How to fix X or what is killing
XawVen.so.2.1, and 2) any ideas for a nice safe way to allow normal users to
shut the system down?

I have to confess here. I fixed /usr/include/errno.h in my libdisk,
although the binaries are the same as gcc 2.2.2d7. I suggest you update
to my gccdisk and libdisk. They can be also used as system backup.

I am thinking about ugrading my video card, and I would like it to work with
Linux. Right now, I am planning on buying the speedstar 24x(for the good price
and performance). Could someone tell me if it works well with Linux? If not,
what card should I buy? Thanks a lot.

I am looking into getting rid of my serial connection between my Linux
workstation and Mailserver, and I was wondering what brands/models of
thin Ethernet cards Linux running TCP/IP has drivers for.
(So I know what to buy)

Thanks in advance.
