by Yogesh Patil 31 Jan '08

31 Jan '08

hi, I am using SQUID 2.6.STABLE17 with fedora core 8, & BIND DNS SERVER configured on the same box, i have configured squid as transparent proxy with all default settings , and applied iptables rule by using the following command iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128 i am able to browse http websites, but when i try to open https sites, such as, gmail.com, hotmail.com etc.. i am not able to get any response from the proxy. i have also tryied with forwarding 443 (https) port to the 3128 (squid) port but still no success., so i think it doesnt seems to be netfilter (iptables) problem, it may be problem with the squid config, anybody can please help me out with this.g

Hi, all I am trying to connect bsnl dataone adsl connection over fedora core 8, i have configured ppp0 interface by using pppoe-setup command over eth0, and first time it worked well but when i restarted PC i am getting the error, i am having dual operating system install Windows Vista / Fedora core 8, i am using same modem with the same modem configuration in Windows Vista it is able to connect, but in linux when i put /sbin/ifup ppp0 command for birnging up ppp0 interface it waits for some time give the following error /usr/sbin/adsl-start: line 217: 13409 Terminated $CONNECT "$@" > /dev/null 2>&1 I have checked with /var/log/messages but still not clue, what is the cause of error, i have also tryied re-installing fedora on different PC but still it gives same error after working first time. * Please find the checks below i performed. 1) I am using Linksys AM300 ADSL modem, checked modem configuration & confirmed that it is working in bridge mode with the proper settings given by ISP 2) Confirmed eth0 interface is working by pinging modem & other pc's in network 3) confirmed that ppp0 configuration is OK, also tryied configuring through WEBMIN but still same error.

Fedora Indian Language Spins
by Rahul Sundaram 28 Jan '08

28 Jan '08

Hi I have created Indian language spins for all the supported Indian languages. If you are familiar with the concept of spins, refer http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/CustomSpins They contain localized version of GNOME, Firefox, Openoffice.org and other basic desktop applications and auto logins into the different Indian languages by default. They are CD size for x86 arch. Kickstart files are available for the following Indian languages: http://sundaram.fedorapeople.org/livecd-fedora-8-desktop-assamese.ks http://sundaram.fedorapeople.org/livecd-fedora-8-desktop-bengali.ks http://sundaram.fedorapeople.org/livecd-fedora-8-desktop-gujarati.ks http://sundaram.fedorapeople.org/livecd-fedora-8-desktop-hindi.ks http://sundaram.fedorapeople.org/livecd-fedora-8-desktop-kannada.ks http://sundaram.fedorapeople.org/livecd-fedora-8-desktop-malayalam.ks http://sundaram.fedorapeople.org/livecd-fedora-8-desktop-marathi.ks http://sundaram.fedorapeople.org/livecd-fedora-8-desktop-oriya.ks http://sundaram.fedorapeople.org/livecd-fedora-8-desktop-punjabi.ks http://sundaram.fedorapeople.org/livecd-fedora-8-desktop-tamil.ks http://sundaram.fedorapeople.org/livecd-fedora-8-desktop-telugu.ks I am discussing with release engineering and Fedora board about hosting them in http://spins.fedoraproject.org. You can create a local language spin by using the following commands in Fedora 8. I strongly suggest using a local mirror if possible In Fedora 8, # yum install livecd-tools # mkdir -p /var/tmp/yum-cache # cd /usr/share/livecd-tools # wget http://sundaram.fedorapeople.org/livecd-fedora-8-base-desktop-localized.ks # wget http://sundaram.fedorapeople.org/livecd-fedora-8-desktop-<locale>.ks # livecd-creator --config=livecd-fedora-8-desktop-<locale>.ks --fslabel=fedora-<locale> --cache=/var/tmp Instead of burning the image, you can boot in a virtual machine or copy it over to a USB key. # livecd-iso-to-disk <foo>.iso /dev/s<xx>n Feel free to forward it to your local lug or anyone interested in Indian language computing. Any feedback is most welcome. Rahul

Re: Fedora PPPOE Connecting (/usr/sbin/adsl-start: line 217:)

Hi, Thanks for the reply manilal. as you have told if modem is configured in PPPOE mode (i.e. username & password stored in the modem) it works, but if you want to have public ip assigned to your linux box, then you need to connect using the bridge mode (modem configuration), in your case, ISP assigns public ip to your modem and it will be treated as gateway for your network, but i want a indivisual linux box who will be treated as gateway for my network alongwith the mail server, squid cache server facilities. so you have given right solution but it not works for me, anybody please help me out with this issue.

First Post (College Tech-fest help)
by Prateek Sharma 28 Jan '08

28 Jan '08

Hello everyone, I am Prateek Sharma. I am a student of BITS-Pilani. We have started a 'Linux Users Club' in my college BITS-Pilani. We started out last semester in September. Just as is the case with almost every LUG, our primary aim is to build and sustain a strong community of Linux users on campus. There is a college tech-fest 'Apogee' coming up in March, and we, as Bits Linux Users Club are planning to hold several events. However, participation is high only when there is some incentive for the participants/winners, and hence we need to give away some prizes. Problem is, we don't have any resources. So, does anyone here know if companies like Red Hat etc. will be willing to help us out by providing us with CDs and other merchandise to give away? Whom do i contact for the same? Can the Fedora Ambassadors help me here? Btw, we were also hoping to have a guest-lecture by someone involved with linux. Anyone here who can enlighten us all? Thanks in advance. Prateek Sharma [BITS Linux Users Club : http://groups.google.com/group/bluc] PS: The google group is pretty much stagnant because almost all of the communication is held on the internal forums etc.
