No problem, I just wanted to show you what you should correct. Hope you did 
  not take that too personal.

Re: [Devil-linux-develop] [PATCH] arpwatch_report

[Peter F. <pe...@em...>]

I never received a positive comment on the problems found on arpwatch,
nor on the enhanced functionality of arpwatch_report.  But judging by
the number of replies to the thread, it seems like it was very well
received.

I apologize for my mistakes in the patch submission.  I am learning.

That is what I did.  Except for the full path.
Actually, I did that first, but wiped that file since the docs say to do
just "diff -u".

That is not supposed to happen.

Is the parameter missing in the file / build / scripts / config /
config_grsecurity  ?
Are you using Kernel 2.6 ?

We can't controll the ftp access so I would rather prefer if we keep doing
this.

It's not that I not trust you, but I want to keep the circle small.

It's already in DL 1.1 (and the soon to be released 1.2).
I'm running it on a couple servers now.

between make menuconfig and make build. it "configures" the scripts so
the can be executed on the right order. documentation maybe old... 

> If I want to compile a "new" ISO with some config changes, must I use make clean or make mrproper?

depends on the nature of the changes. for example, if you only want to
modify/erase/include a file, you could do it between make install and
make iso.

once the iso has been made, you have to do a make clean, so the ISO and
the ETC dir from tmp/ are erased.

use make mrproper only when you whant to go throught the entire process
again (it erases the tmp directory completely)

if you want to recompile one package again, you have to erase the
tmp/.done_install_package and the tmp/.done_build_package file, and run
make build install again.

[Devil-linux-develop] Apache + PHP

[<dl...@nv...>]

Hi,

has anybody tried to compile Apache with PHP for DL?

I've a need for  it, and if nobody has tried it yet, I am prepared to make it my first attempt to  work on DL.

Thanks

[Devil-linux-develop] Make Prepare

[<dl...@nv...>]

Hi,

I'm a self confessed newbie, so forgive my trivial Questions.

I'm busy compiling my first attempt to a DL ISO (1.1.???) from the CVS as on Saturday.

The docs say that one should do make unpack/menuconfig/build/install/iso/dist

When one types just "make" , other options are displayed.

When does one use make prepare?

If I want to compile a "new" ISO with some config changes, must I use make clean or make mrproper?

Thanks

Nico

Didn't sf do away with the cvs.projectname.sourceforge.net format as of  
April 28th? At least for the anon stuff I had to change to point to 
plain cvs.sourceforge.net. Then of course all the CVS/Root files still 
had the wrong info.

I uploaded it to the ftp server.

I'm having trouble with CVS right now, so I can't update the md5sum.lst
file now.

Is anyone else having problems with cvs?  I got an error that the 
"DSA host key for cvs.devil-linux.sourceforge.net has changed".
I edited my known_hosts file and let it recreate the key, now I get:

Several considerations for the next time you send a patch:

don't modify makefiles, better change their value when you call make, i.e:

make ARPDIR=/etc/arpwatch all

better than:

  # Pathname of directory to install database file
  -ARPDIR = $(prefix)/arpwatch
  +ARPDIR = /etc/arpwatch
  +# Pathname of report script
  +REPORT_SCRIPT = /etc/arpwatch/arpwatch_report

it's cleaner and more compatible :)

about the diffs, next time please, send a diff with the "unified"
option: "-u", so humans could understand the diff... ah, and yes, one
more, could you provide an init.d script for arpwatch?

[Devil-linux-develop] 1.1 Freeze - too late to add?

[William G. <dl-...@gm...>]

Heiko et al,

Is it too late to request an add for 1.2.  I would like to have the following perl modules added.

IO-stringy-2.109.tar.gz  
MailTools-1.62.tar.gz  
MIME-tools-5.411a.tar.gz

Their addition will not require a script change only their addition to the  src/perl-ext directory and a recompile of perl.

The scripts are needed by sa-wrapper.pl script from http://jousset.org/pub/sa-postfix.en.html.  This script allows one to remotely train the Spamassassin Bayes filter by sending e-mail to the postfix server.  

This is use for those of us who do not run Linux based mail servers (Yes I am holding my head in shame as I accept my paycheck ;)  

Thanks for the consideration.

William
