Subject: telnetd: BUG FIX

Hi.
As with pl5, it is no longer possible to overwrite the text-segment, which is
marked as read-only. This caused some problems to some programs, telnetd is/was
one of them. For those with a source of telnetd:

The bug concerns the variable "line". It is declared as "char *line".
Change this to "char line(.10.)", where (. = open bracket, and .) = closed
bracket (since my terminal doesn't have XXXENGLISH WORD MISSINGXXX brackets)

The variable "line" is declared somewhere at the begging of telnetd.c
The next change is the modification of "line", which now is valid except the
assignmet "line = "/dev/ptyXX", which has to be replaced by something like
"strcpy(line,"/dev/ptyXX")", and PLEASE, move the assignment outside the
for-loop, the UCB/BSD version does assign it everytime inside the loop ...
The assignment takes place in a routine called "do_it", near the end of the
file telnetd.c

I'm referring to the UCB/BSD Version, but I think that the telnetd.c used for
Linux is also ported. Since I haven't got the Linux-version, I had to fetch
this one, and, of course, I'm missing something :-) What do I have to do to
get TCIOGETP/TCIOSETP/TCIOGETC/... and friends working ? I simply made a
"wild guess" at what the mean in the linux headerfiles in termio(s).h (No, I
don't complain about missing commentation ... :-)
And of course, now it's able to telnet to our machine, but your terminal will
be screwed then ...

Greetings, Herp.

idem for Xenix...  [ I know linux supports VFS ].

Has anybody an X11 server for a herculus video card?

This question has probably been asked a million times in this newsgroup
but what are the clock numbers for a Paradise VGA adapter?  How does one
go about changing the clocks?  I have only been able to install up to disk
X3 due to a shortage of disks. Will this keep me from running X, since I
noticed that the last 4 xdisks had mostley miscelaneous stuff on them.

And most importantly how do you run X?

Hi all.

I compiled the ircII client under Linux (got it working after a while ...),
then I logged in as root, started irc, everything was all right.
But when I logged in as guest, the irc-client was hung. Hm.
What was the problem:
After inserting some prints in irc.c, I found out that the system does not
return from the gethostbyname() call when being "guest", being "root" had no
problem. Since I don't run named (nameservice is done in the computing 
centre), I looked at /usr/etc/resolv.conf and found out, that it had the
perms: -rw------- root root resolv.conf.
After doing a chmod a+r , everything was fine.
Surely it was my fault to have the wrong perms for resolv.conf, but shouldn't
there be a error-message "permission denied" ... But ... who is reading the 
resolv.conf ? It is the inetd ? If so, there should be no problem, if not,
there should be error message. Or whatever ... :-)

I have my ATI-busmouse running under at least linux 0.98pl1 pl3 and
pl4. I didn't have any bigger problem using the mouse.

It is correct that the kernel detects an Microsoft and a ATI-XL
busmouse. It's just the same for me.

Check out if your mouse device has the correct Major and Minor device
number. It should be 10 and 2 as stated in the README file. Check if
your Xconfig contains the correct entry for your mouse.

At least there may be a problem with your interrupt. In default the kernel
uses IRQ 5 (with the kernel distributed with SLS). This interupt may be
used by some other device (LPT2 for instance). If so the Kernel keeps track
which interrupt is used and does not allow the mouse device to use the same
interrupt when X is started. If this is your problem then you have to change
the interrupts and to recompile the kernel.

Hope this helps

Organization: Microdata Oy, Helsinki, Finland

Hi there, i'm still struggling with combat to get cdlib mud and linux to
co-operate....

Here's some snapshots of my problem:

>telnet rat 3000

Trying 127.0.0.2...
Connected to rat.
Escape character is '^]'.


Welcome to this new 3.0 lpmud, beta version.

You can give you name or 'gameinfo' below. 'gameinfo' is especially
usefull for beginners and recommended reading to all interested.

THIS FILE HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED BY THE LOCAL ADMINISTRATOR
Gamedriver version:	CD.01.58
Mudlib version:		CD.00.26

What is your name: aConnection closed by foreing host.

As soon as i type first letter in (in this case 'a') it throws me out.
Driver is still running and i can do it again but it always does the same
thing.

Driver is version 01.58 (as you can see:), i got latest which was named
something like Lpmud-cdlib.test.tar.Z which contained some bugfixes to
official version. (both versions acts the same)


comm1: write EPIPE detected

This is what driver has to say after i try to telnet to it..
I'm now running kernel 0.98.5 with tcp/ip patches 1-3, before i added these
patches it complained something like comm1: Unknown io error 5 (i'm not sure
ab. that number)
With kernel 0.98.4 it was also that Unknown io error...

Strangest thing is that when i was running older kernel (0.98.2) this
lpmud did work somehow, i could telnet to it and play but due to other
bugs which were fixed with later ones (accept?) it didn't run long (2 minutes).


Heres diffs which i made to src/comm1.c, and i wonder if i have made it all
wrong or is it some kernel bug?

You change the library source code.  Only standard way to go.  In ANSI
C, programs mustn't go around changing standard library routines.  The
reason for this is that the rest of the library might depend on
certain weird behaviour of the routine under some circumstances, which
the replacement doesn't have.  For instance, the library might have a
hidden flag, __make_malloc_free_instead__, which the real malloc
checks.

No.  If only because malloc's argument is of type size_t.

Nope.

Mail and News in SLS are about to be broken out into a series of its own.
The basic mail program will still be on the box, but the extra's will
be extra.

Also, anyone using .98p5 will need to remove the seg fault upon code
writes in order to use mail.  I tried finding the place in mail where
this happens, but if I run it from "gdb" it doesn't happen :-<.

I've always thought that since anyone who can log in at the console can
access the power switch, they should be able to shut down the system
with no special privileges.  How about a ``shutdown'' command that can
be run by any user logged in at the console?  And an account called
``shutdown'' with no password that runs it, after shutting down X if
it's running?  And a nice xshutdown command that provides a pretty front
end to it all, and allows warnings and time-outs and so forth.

Is there any way to keep X running while the rest of the system is ready
to die?  If not, any way of doing pretty graphics for the ``click *here*
to abort, click *here* to reboot, you may now power down'' sort of
instructions?

I suspect that, without some sort of NextStep/NewWave Unix hiding
system, Joe User isn't going to buy it just yet.  Making Unix easy
enough to *administer* is an even bigger nightmare.  Linux ain't hitting
the general desktop just yet.

Hello! :) I have a few questions I can't seem to find answers to. I was
wondering if you all could help me.

(a) Where can I find a compiled version of .95-pl5? I'm running pl-1 and,
well, would like to upgrade, even though I just installed it last night. I
don't however wanna fiddle with souce code, as it's a pain in the butt *grin*
and (b) more important, I don't have a compiler installed yet.

(b) What version of GCC should I get, and from where? There's so many just
floating around, I'm clueless (although this is my usual state, mostly).

(c) What do you reccomend by way of utilities, tools, and binaries in
general (including games ;). I would like to get Moria, I have it for DOS, 
would like to compare.

(d) Where does one untar these things? And where does one place them? I'm
fairly new to *nix's from the setup end, and well, the file structure con-
founds me. I really don't know what to put where. And what dirs are executable
dirs. (I know all bins are, but is that it?). 

I think that is it. Any help at all with these would be vastly appreciated.
On the whole, Linux looks very nice, and seems to have very good support!
I wish it and everyone associated well... just HELP! ;) All I'm running 
right now is the rootdisk, and booting off floppy as trying to install
lilo without a clue seems foolhardy. Thanks again!

Recompiling won't help, 'rm' only uses unlink(). Sounds like you've got
rm setuid; try changing the perms on it to 0655 or something similar.

uugetty.  As of 0.98.1 I am no longer able to get uugetty to work
(I get "warning: init sequence failed" errors now).  In addition, I
recently purchased a ViVa 14400 bps modem and would like to set it
up for dialin at 14400, perhaps using 32.bis or .42bis.

I have since upgraded to 0.98.5, and the situation remains unchanged. 

Has anyone done this using uugetty (or another linux program)?  If
so, could you please send me a copy of your gettydefs and default/uugetty.ttys?
files?

many, many thanks in advance for any help.

Jean.

PS - Yes, I have recompiled the getty_ps package under 0.98.5, still no luck.
