Archive-name: auto/comp.unix.admin/log-tcp-tcp-wrapper-update

This is an announcement of an interim patch for some rough edges that
were left in last June's release. The patch does not introduce any new
features or changes to installation and/or configuration procedures.

The patch has been submitted to comp.sources.misc, and can be picked up
from ftp-win.tue.nl:/pub/security/log_tcp_4.2-to-4.3.Z.

A fully-patched source kit can be found on ftp.win.tue.nl in the file
/pub/security/log_tcp.shar.Z.  The archives on cert.org (in directory
/pub/tools/wrappers) and on ftp.uu.net (in /pub/security) will be
updated ASAP. 

The remainder of this message is an extract of the BLURB file (summary
of fixes and workarounds).

    - Some sites reported that connections would be rejected because
    localhost != localhost.domain. The host name checking code now
    special-cases localhost (problem reported by several sites).

    - The programs now report an error if an existing access control
    file cannot be opened (e.g. due to lack of privileges).  Until now,
    the programs would just pretend that the access control file does
    not exist (reported by Darren Reed, avalon@coombs.anu.edu.au).

    - The timeout period for remote userid lookups was upped to 30
    seconds, in order to cope with slow hosts or networks.  If this is
    too long for you, adjust the TIMEOUT definition in file rfc931.c
    (problem reported by several sites).

    - On hosts with more than one IP network interface, remote userid
    lookups could use the IP address of the "wrong" local interface.
    The problem and its solution were discussed on the rfc931-users
    mailing list.  Scott Schwartz (schwartz@cs.psu.edu) folded the fix
    into the rfc931.c module.

    - The result of % expansion (in shell commands) is now checked for
    stuff that may confuse the shell; it is replaced by underscores
    (problem reported by Icarus Sparry, I.Sparry@gdr.bath.ac.uk).

    - A portability problem was fixed that caused compile-time problems
    on a CRAY (problem reported by Michael Barnett, mikeb@rmit.edu.au).

Finally, a caveat for those who use the optional remote username lookup
feature (RFC 931 protocol).  On some systems, these lookups may trigger
a kernel bug.  When a client host connects to your system, and the RFC
931 connection to that client is rejected by a router, some kernels
drop all connections with that client.  The bug is not in the log_tcp
programs. The patched README file describes how to find out if your
kernel has the bug, and what action can be taken.

Archive-name: auto/comp.lang.logo/Berkeley-Logo-version-2-6

A new alpha test release (version 2.6) of Berkeley Logo is now
available by anonymous FTP.  "Alpha test" means that I know there are
bugs in it!  But you're welcome to try it if you understand that.
I'm happy to get bug reports but I don't promise anything.

The new version fixes bugs that were reported to me in version 2.5,
and also implements tail recursion elimination, which should allow
larger programs to fit in smaller machines.  A very likely side effect
is that you may get misleading error messages (attributing the error
to the wrong procedure, for example); I'd like to know about these.

Users of version 2.5 under Unix should note that the new version does
not create a graphics window until the first graphics instruction is
entered, so don't panic when you start it up.

FTP to anarres.cs.berkeley.edu and get any of the following files:

pub/logo.tar.Z		Unix sources and documentation
pub/ucblogo.zip		PC version, PKZIP form, including executable BL.EXE
pub/ucblogo.sit.hqx	Mac version, StuffIt/BinHex form, w/ executable Logo
pub/usermanual		Just the documentation file.
pub/csls.tar.Z		Logo programs from _Computer Science Logo Style_

You're on your own for the unpacking software.

Advantages of Berkeley Logo:

	* It's free.

	* It comes with source files (in C).

	* Logo programs are completely compatible among Unix, PC, and Mac.

Disadvantages of Berkeley Logo:

	* It's pretty slow.

	* It doesn't do anything fancy about graphics.  (One turtle.)

	* It still has bugs.  In particular, it runs out of memory easily.

If you don't have FTP access, but can read a 3.5-inch disk, send me
$2.50 to cover costs and tell me whether you want the Mac or the PC
version (or send $5.00 for both) and I'll send you a disk.

Archive-name: auto/comp.unix.bsd/386BSD-New-wd-driver-handles-multiple-disks-bad-sectoring

For those who are interested, my heavily modified wd driver for
386bsd is now available by anonymous ftp from barsoom.nhh.no.

This is a modification to the config program to have it use such
constructs as:

controller	isa0
controller	wdc0	at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 vector wdintr
disk		wd0	at wdc0 drive 0
disk		wd1	at wdc0 drive 1
controller	wdc1	at isa? port "IO_WD2" bio irq 15 vector wdintr
disk		wd2	at wdc1 drive 0
disk		wd3	at wdc1 drive 1

Information about the disks is output to ioconf.c, as well as the
controller information that's always been written there.  This means
that logical ordering of disks is not tied firmly to the physical
ordering.

I've modified the fd driver slightly, to let it work with this setup,
but the wd driver is rewritten quite a bit.  It now handles multiple
controllers and disks well (as the above example implies), and it
also finally does bad144 style bad sector handling *correctly*!  :-)
I'm using it with the above setup, running two disks on each of two
controllers, my disks do have bad sectors, and the thing works great
for me.

If you want to check it out, it's in pub/386bsd on barsoom.nhh.no.
See the README file there for more specific information.

Coming up next:  WD formatting under 386bsd.  (I need it for my
secondary controller, which DOS can't see without physical mods!)
(It may take me a while, though -- anyone else working on it?)

Archive-name: auto/comp.os.linux/8514-A-X-server-public-release

After weeks of development and testing, I'm finally ready to announce
the release of the 8514/A X server for Linux.

The X server is based upon Orest's 1.1 release, and should be
compatible with his upcoming 2.0 release.

The requirements for running this X server are an 8514/A register
compatible video card, Linux 0.96c.pl2 or newer kernel, Orest's 1.1
release, Xlinux8514.T.Z, and GCC 2.2.2d.  Installation instructions
can be found in the README in Xlinux8514.T.Z.

For those of you who want to further optimize the server or port it to
other platforms (e.g., SVR4 or 386BSD), I've provided source code
cdiffs to Orest's xsrc.1.1.T.Z in the x.8514.src.T.Z file.  If you
would like to do further development, please contact me at the e-mail
address below.

Unfortunately my free time has run out, so this will be the only
release of the 8514/A X server unless someone has the time and
experience to pick up where I have to leave off.  I've delayed my
dissertation research during July and August to get this ready, and
while my professor has been patient with me, I cannot push him any
further.  If anyone would like to volunteer, please contact me at the
e-mail address below.

If you have problems setting things up or getting things working,
please send e-mail to the X11 channel on the linux-activists mailing
list or post to c.o.l.  This way everyone can benefit.

I will try to upload these files to sunsite.unc.edu, tsx-11.mit.edu
and nic.funet.fi in the next few days.  The main distribution site for
this package is ftp.cs.unc.edu in the /pub/martin directory.  The
Xlinux8514.T.Z and x.8514.src.T.Z files can be found there today.

Thanks,
Kevin

This is a periodic posting of information about some of the archives at
ftp.cs.tulane.edu and the available files from the SCSI-BBS, including
SCSI, ESDI, IPI, and Fiber Channel documents from the standards committees.

These files are available for FTP from ftp.cs.tulane.edu in the directory
pub/scsi. Files are stored in file areas as they are found in the BBS with
each area having a file named 'files.bbs' that tells what each file is. The
file pub/scsi/index.Z list each file area, it's descriptions and it's files.

Thanks to John Lohmeyer of NCR, a majority of the SCSI related files from the
SCSI BBS are now available for anonymous ftp. These files were sent to me by
Mr. Lohmeyer at his expense so that more people would have access to them.
The SCSI BBS (316-636-8700) contains a large amount of data relating to SCSI,
and ESDI as well as SCSI-2, IPI, and Fiber Channel, as well as the last
revision of the SCSI-1 standard before it went to publication by ANSI.

Most of the files in the SCSI archive are either archived with the ZIP utility
or compressed with the 'compress' program. Most of the text files are stored
as Wordstar word processing files. PKzip for PC/MS-DOS is included in the 
archive to allow users to break up the .ZIP files, and the PC/MS-DOS binaries
and .C source are also in the archive to convert the Wordstar documents to
ASCII text.

Archive-name: auto/news.software.b/Announcing-sendbatches-for-InterNetNews

Sendbatches for INN is a small package whose goal is to furnish
an interface similar to the powerful sendbatches which is part
of the C-News distribution.

The sendbatches for INN also uses one configuration file
where the user can specify several parameters such as the muncher and
sender to be used as well as batch size limits.

The archive is available via anonymous ftp to grasp1.univ-lyon1.fr,
as /pub/unix/news/inn/contrib/sendbatches.tar.Z.

README file follows:

This package is an attempt to furnish a "sendbatches" for INN with similar
behavior than its C-News version.

----------  IMPORTANT  ----------

To unpack this tar archive, you should be in $inn (see INN's
Install.ms file if you don't know what $inn means) when doing
the tar xvf command.

The files will be put in $inn/contrib/sendbatches and the Makefile
assumes it really is there.

Rich Salz has agreed not to use the $inn/contrib for official stuff,
so what you'll find in this sub-directory is not part of the official
release of INN.

-----------------------------------

This version as well as its extensions will be made available via
anonymous ftp to grasp1.univ-lyon1.fr, in the directory
/pub/unix/news/inn/contrib/sendbatches.tar.Z

-----------------------------------

How to install sendbatches for INN.

- Edit and customize sendbatches.ctl, add one line for each site you
  feed batches to.

  Field 1:  site name (from the newsfeeds file)
  Field 2:  maximum # of batches (calls to batcher) per call
  Field 3:  size of batch (passed to batcher)
  Field 4:  muncher (in the batch sub-dir)
  Field 5:  sender (in batch) with its (few) arguments).

  Tabulation between each field.

- Change, delete and add whatever you need in the batch sub-dir.

- Run "make" to get sendbatches subst'ed (C version of subst only).

- Give an eye to the script if you wish.

- Check the install part of the Makefile in order to be sure none of
  your custom will be destroyed.

- Run "make install" with appropriate priviledge.

Update your crontab entries in order to run the script.

Example: 

0 * * * * /usr/local/news/bin/sendbatches site1 site2 there foo bar

ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY WITH THIS SOFTWARE.

Heya, all, I haven't seen mention of it here, so I thought I'd share
something I found out on the internet.

It's called Quayle_Season.bin, and it's available via ftp from either
sumex-aim.stanford.edu or mac.archive.umich.edu, I don't recall which.
Anyway, it is in the Mac directory in the subdirectory
/art/qt/. I don't remember which site it was at, but I am sure it was
one of those two.

It's a several minute lobg QuickTime movie of Our Hero looking really
stupid. Quotes included are the "in other words, a good offense wins,"
several of his time-displaced quotes (like "I have made some good
descisions in the future"), and the awesome Hawaii's role in the
Pacific quote, complete with illustrated recaption. R. Nixon makes a
guest appearance.

The file is nearly 6 Mb in size, and requires a Macintosh and Apple's
QuickTime init to play.
