Internal Modem Suggestion for Redhat 9.0 kernel 2.4
by New Immigrant new 08 Sep '04

08 Sep '04

I have the following configuration. Redhat 9 with 2.4 kernel and using the dlink internal modem DFM-560IS+++. This modem drivers are compiled with kernel version 2 so there is a compatibility issue. Got an external modem and it works fine. However the Cost difference is 4x. So would like to know if there is any internal modem known to have worked seamlessly with the above configuration? Your feedback is highly appreciated Thank you! _________________________________________________________________ Dont just search. Find.

problem with FC2 while connecting to net
by psawant＠nse.co.in 07 Sep '04

07 Sep '04

hello people, i've recently done fresh install of FC2 on my m/c. i've kept the named service running, as i want to use local DNS on my m/c, but when i try to stop/start/restart named, it gives me the following error: ************************************************************* rndc: connection failed ************************************************************* i checked the man page for rndc, and also /etc/rndc.conf and /etc/rndc.key, but that did not help. i tried running "rndc" and "rndc-confgen", but it gave the same error msg as above. i guess i've forgotten to install some package or something, but am not able to pinpoint it down :-( plz help, thanks, Pradnyesh.

Ok methinks it's time to Reply. I knew the meaning of Open Source... but then I prefer to think of it as follows If you "value" add on to the source and then charge a lil something, then it is quite ok. But I don't think downloading the content of the 4 cds and then burning them onto CDs (I got a writer, so I don't wanna pay for this.), is VALUE-ADDITION. So when someone (I don't care if it is Stallman) wants me to pay 5 times this, I am surely gonna ask him to take a hike.. If linus had started charging a fee for everything that he wrote, I don't think Linux would be half as popular as it is today.

[COMMERCIAL] Opening for a Senior Systems Engr, 3+ yrs
by Shuvam Misra 06 Sep '04

06 Sep '04

Dear all, We have an opening for a Senior Systems Engineer, 3+ experience, based in Mumbai. This person will be spending most of his/her time working in our product development team. Our software product is primarily a messaging and server monitoring system, plus optional modules for network monitoring, firewall integration, etc. The product works on Linux and Unix platforms; all our customers for this product so far have been on the Linux platform. In our company, the culture is pretty techie. All users work on Linux desktops. Marketing material, product technical reports, letters to regulatory authorities, etc, are almost always done on LaTeX. Income Tax Form 16 is prepared using an XFig template. And so on.... The selection process will involve a C programming test followed by a personal interview. We will prefer 3+ years of experience but will also look at less experience for exceptional professionals. And please understand that this is not a pure "software job", because we don't feel that people who only want to code can be of much use in our product team. We need someone who will occasionally debug problems on running systems at client sites, so that this insight is incorporated into our product offerings later. And sysadm experience of heavily loaded servers is a big advantage for a role in our product team. Responsibilities: - Software development on system programming-type projects - Installation and troubleshooting for Linux servers, WANs, firewalls, etc - Network, server and DBMS performance analysis and tuning - R & D on unfamiliar software, products, protocols Profile desired: - Excellent, not merely good, C programming skills - Thorough knowledge of Perl - Hands-on experience in Linux/UNIX operating systems - Clarity and good understanding of the fundamentals of operating systems, network protocols, and optionally, security issues - Experience in Java will be an added advantage - should preferably have read and understood (i) Maurice Bach, (ii) McKusick/Leffler/et-al, (iii) "Advanced Programmer's Guide to Unix" by W.Richard Stevens, etc. - comfortable with working in a small company Qualifications: - A B.Sc. degree, preferably in physics/math, or BE/B.Tech/MCA Please can you reply to me with your resume? And it would be nice if the resume is in PS/PDF/plain text. regards, Shuvam Misra --

Sorry forgot to put in this snippet 5. Why to charge for software, and why not to charge. This question really translates to a couple of other questions. a. Is the concept of your software so radical that you and only you could have thought of it? b. Did you have to do an amazing amount of research to develop the coding methods you used? c. Did you use all your own code or was much of it obtained from outside? d. Did you pay for outside help? e. How many people are going to benefit from your code? f. Are these the same people who write code that you benefit from? -----Original Message----- From: Pillai, Gishu R (GE Energy) Sent: Monday, September 06, 2004 1:39 PM To: 'GNU/Linux Users Group, Mumbai, India' Subject: RE: [ILUG-BOM] Opensource/Free Software and stuff...
