Blocked Web Server and Squid Question
by Jon Moss 13 May '06

13 May '06

Good afternoon everyone and happy Friday! :) A quick update on the Ubuntu install on the laptop for my church - that worked great but we experienced a hardware failure in the laptop last Sunday so that sort of took the wind out of our sails. :( I have a different sort of problem and it's beyond my expertise because I'm a infant when it comes to networks, NATs, TCPIP, etc. So, here goes. First, a survey. What happens when you go to this URL: http://sharing.lansingumc.org Do you see a login screen? More and more of my church members are getting blocked somewhere, by their employers and in some cases the military, I suspect because I'm doing a port forward through my router on port 81 to the webserver behind the router. I have two webservers at home, the church server (port forward to 81) and my own personal webserver (the normal HTTP port of 80 is forwarded to it). If it's being blocked because of port 81, should I just switch them? Or should I use Squid on my personal webserver to somehow do the forwarding from my webserver to the church webserver, all on port 80? (This is where I need help because I've tried reading the Squid documentation and my mind just starts to wonder and get lost). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I will even go so far as to allow someone (briefly) access via my SSH tunnel (if you provide your IP address so I can add it to hosts.allow). Thanks again and have a great day and an even better weekend. Jon Moss __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

We have TextPad avail. at work. It seems to do more than Notepad and more geared to programming, config files and crap I do than Word (to your mother). Why don't you start by telling us which editors you've tried, that don't fit the bill. Make it a list and save us the multiplicity of emails that say, "you can do all this with vi/vim/emacs/gedit/kate/beaver/Ted/kedit." Yes, I said Beaver. And it has syntax highlighting. :-) http://www.nongnu.org/beaver/index.html >-----Original Message----- >From: kclug-bounces(a)kclug.org >On Behalf Of Jack > >For those out there familiar with UltraEdit in Windows, I have >a questioon.

Debian Live Net
by Jason D. Clinton 11 May '06

11 May '06

So, since it's been a week since anyone has posted and I have nothing better to talk about, I thought I would promote some work I just commited to the Debian Live project. Currently on a Debian system, one can install the live-package package and run "make-live iso" to generate a Knoppix-like Live CD with your own custom software selection. I added support for booting the live environment from a Samba share. One runs "make-live net" and a chroot environment is configured. After configuring a dhcp3 server, tftp server and Samba, one can boot any computer with 128 MB of RAM directly in to the live environment -- it all runs off the server in read-only mode. Changes are lost just like when running a Live CD. See here if you want to know more: http://lists.debian-unofficial.org/pipermail/live/2006-May/000192.html I will be posting links to that mailing list of direct downloads of the experimental Debian packages shortly. My earlier attachments didn't show up in the archives. The company that I work for will be subsequently distributing "finished" configurations: tarballs of the chroot environment. One will be an "open source edition" with no installer or management tools and the other will be an "enterprise edition" with the afore-mentioned tools and also the ability to run Windows 98, 2000 or XP inside of a virtualizer on the thin clients. The installer and management tools are written in C# and run on the Mono runtime environment. The virtualizer can be QEMU 0.8.1 or VMware Player 1.0. They can be configured to run full-screen so that end users have no idea that they are running Windows on Linux on a thin client.
