-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Greetings, If we havec changed from ILUG to GLUG why cant we also change linuxers to something better? I guess when it is time to renew the domain name we can also change the ilug-bom.org.in to something better. If the domain name is requiring a renewal soon then we can change both the linuxers and ilug-bom.org.in together, also try to make the entire email address of mailing list a little short since newcomers do find it a little long due to 3 seperators in the email address.

RE: [ILUG-BOM] Govt. not to support Open Source alternatives
by Matthew, Anu 04 Apr '03

M$ wont invest/spend if they dont foresee ample returns. In fact who would do in the corporate world? All the parties know that, I guess. Besides, the (un)-usual perks may be more lucrative to favour non-open-source alternatives. ~AM Found this on /. LinuxWorld <http://www.linuxworld.com/> has an article <http://www.linuxworld.com/2003/0401.indiaopensource.html> with statements from the Minister of Information Technology and Communications of India stating that India is not going to support Open Source alternatives Government-wide. Look like the government dosen't want to take sides. But whether they are keeping the options open or closing doors is the question.

I am using jedit 4.1 as a java editor on linux. The following piece of code compiles well using the JCompiler plugin to give a class file. > import java.io.*; > > class HelloWorld > { > public static void main(String args[]) > { > try > { > BufferedReader buf=new BufferedReader(new > InputStreamReader(System.in)); > > String s=" ",s1=" "; > System.out.print("Enter your string : "); > s1=buf.readLine(); > s+=s1; > > buf.close(); > System.out.println("Your string is : "+s); > } > catch(Exception e){} > > > } > } However when i try to run this program thru java command of Console plugin of Jedit ,it hangs out and i do not get any o/p. whn i try to run the same proram by java command line option of the generated class file it works well. So in shrt can someone suggest how do i tweak jedit to run my program within jedit and not going to the command line.

rsh issues
by GNUrpreet Singh 03 Apr '03

03 Apr '03

hi i had a small problem . i m actually using PVM in it and pvm inturn uses rsh for the communication between different nodes of a cluster. now the problem is that i am being able to rsh between the nodes using commands like [tony@micks tony]$ rsh tonylin [tony@tonylin tony]$ ls ***here micks n tonylin are the host names and tony is the user name**** this kind of a thing works fine, BUT there is another option in rsh such that we send only one command and it gets executed remotely, but i get an error like [tony@micks tony]$ rsh tonylin ls rcmd : socket : Permission Denied [tony@micks tony]$ now i even checked /var/log/messages on both the machines (micks and tonylin) but found no entry! pvm uses similar things thus i m not even being able to add a host on the virtual machine and it also gives the same error message. plz help me on this.

Improving the list
by Frederick Noronha (FN) 03 Apr '03

03 Apr '03

We were talking about improving the quality of this list, so here are some random suggestions that come to mind: o Introduce the list to new members; it always helps to have critical mass. o Ask list members what *they* expect from the list o Expand the admin team, allocating specific responsibilities to each o Set up another mailing list for linuxers-admin, to coordinate activities among the linuxers o Link up events/reports/happenings on *this* list with (i) other LUGs and FSUGs in and around Mumbai and within the rest of India and (ii) other international networks such as linux-announce(a)NEWS.ORNL.GOV This work should be specifically alloted to one or two persons o Encourage silent members to post o Lot of behind-the-scene emails to encourage more positive activity on the list o While getting angry is natural and a sign of youth, higher politeness levels could ensure better communication o Women members, who seem conspicuous by their absence, need special encouragement... Suggestions from others could take this debate forward. Greetings from Goa! FN -- Frederick Noronha : http://www.fredericknoronha.net : When we speak of free Freelance Journalist : http://www.bytesforall.org : software we refer to Ph 0091.832.2409490 : Cell 0 9822 122436 : freedom, not price.
