I've never seen such a sluggish ftp server. >Perhaps you would like to try vsftpd. I have not had such problems with it. One complaint I have against vsftpd (and most ftp servers) is that they allow unlimited password cracking attempts. Proftpd can be configured to limit the attempts per connection. I have set ours to 1 attempt and protect ftp with the same iptables recent module rules that protect ssh. As ftp (and sometimes ssh) often have many file transfers in a row, each in separate connections, I use pam_recent to clean the recent module's list. On our server proftpd is fast. -- ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@georgeanelson.com> ' <HTTP: www.georgeanelson.com /> ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2007 15:48:39 -0500 From: "Mercury Morris" <MERCURY.MORRIS@GMAIL.COM> Subject: Re: Where Did It Go?

Neither Fedora 7's nor kernel.org's kernels recognize the device. Back in Fedora Core 6 (and kernel 2.6.18), the drive was /dev/hda (or /dev/hdb, whatever). But the best Fedora 7 can do is create /dev/sdb, unless the drive actually has a disk inside. Then Fedora 7 creates /dev/sdb and /dev/sdb4 (or /dev/sdb1 if you have made your own Linux partition). I have tried building several 2.6.21.3 kernels, but they all fail to recognize the drive. Only the program, sfdisk, can read anything from the device without generating any error messages. The command, sfdisk -l /dev/sdb, prints out what seems to be one good diagnostic message and a reasonable partition table. I did find a solution for Ubuntu users. You can Google ["mc.mauser" "update-initramfs"] (include the quotes, omit the brackets), then scroll down to see mc.mauser's code. This solution is good only for Ubuntu, not Fedora! What can we do to get the attention of either the kernel developers and/or the Fedora folks and have them look at this problem? Admittedly, these old Zip drives are really obsolete, given that you can buy 8GB USB flash drives for less than half the cost of some of the IOMEGA models. But, it doesn't seem like the right thing to do to drop support for a device without some advanced notice, and surely not by just refusing to recognize it. -- MM ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2007 16:41:28 -0500 From: "Steven P.

It will almost make me sound like I must be totally clueless and incapable of running a Linux system. But, since that is not the case, here goes. This morning before work, I was attempting to print five sheets of a spreadsheet that I use every Monday (on Thursday's I print out three sheets from the exact same spreadsheet.) Up until this morning, this has always "Just Worked." This morning, I was only able to print the first sheet (of the five that I needed.) Whatever I tried, I could only print the first sheet. It isn't that I can only print one sheet, it's that I can only print the first sheet. I tried to print other sheets with no success. Also, I tried creating other multi sheet spreadsheets in OpenOffice.org and KSpread. We're talking just putting one character on each of three sheets. Same results as described above. I recreated the spreadsheet that I attempted to print this morning by copying and pasting all six sheets to a completely fresh spreadsheet. You can download it here: http://www.afolkey2.net/~steve/Projects/fedora/20070730a-VendingMachines.ods Here is the exact spreadsheet that I had issues with this morning: http://www.afolkey2.net/~steve/Projects/fedora/20070702-VendingMachines.ods Here are links to all of my Cups logs: http://www.afolkey2.net/~steve/Projects/fedora/access_log-Debug http://www.afolkey2.net/~steve/Projects/fedora/error_log-Debug http://www.afolkey2.net/~steve/Projects/fedora/page_log-Debug I had no luck finding anything out of order in any of them. That doesn't mean that it isn't there, it just means I can't find it... Now I am off to creating a completely new, never used user account just for the purpose of seeing what happens when I try to print my desired (or any, for that matter) multi sheet spreadsheet... My version of OpenOffice.org is as follows: OpenOffice.org 2.4.0 (SRC680_m222 Build-1) Also, I am running KSpread compiled from KDE Branch 3.5 source. My version of Fedora Core is FC6, fully updated and booted into the most recent kernel update. If you need any more information, I will be glad to oblige. All printing has always "Just Worked" for me on Fedora Core 6. So I am no expert when it comes to this subject :) Steven P.

After I do a startx the screen blanks, and in nvidia driver case, stays there (all I can do is reset the machine). In nouveau case it does the same, but after several seconds X gets killed automatically and I end up back in the prompt, so I don't have to reset. > With both the Nvidia driver and the nv driver, I can see xorg climb when > viewing a video and scanning forward or increasing the speed with mplayer. > > What I do is open top with the -d 1 so I get a quick update.

Are you sure you are not getting this kernel from one of the testing repos. As far as the site above, you are right it has the 586 and the 686 kernels are there but not the i386 kernel.

There is an additional complexity from fc6 -> f7: the way disks are accessed in the newer is via /dev/sdX whereas the old would be /dev/hdX for parallel IDE disks. I imagine that the kernel in the installer also provides a good check as to whether the machine can actually boot such a kernel.
