Feed up your RSS Feeds - Liferea

nospam@example.com (Jonas Genannt) — Thu, 17 Aug 2006 01:32:21 +0200

In the past I had some trouble to manage my RSS feeds.

I used Thunderbird for reading my email than the RSS feeds begun to grow up and I used Thunderbird to read my feeds, but it is the wrong program for it. To slow and to big, eats memory.

Today I started my search for an news reader! - I found Liferea.

A small and fast - written in GTK - newsreader. Now I'm happy with the feeds.

Webbased email administration interface

nospam@example.com (Jonas Genannt) — Mon, 14 Aug 2006 21:27:04 +0200

My project is neaerly complete! - Web based managment for eMailServers.

My eMailServer framework based on Courier/Postfix/Maildrop/MySQL has got four usergroups:

1.) normal eMailaccount

change there own password

create/modify/delete autoresponder

2.) admin for one or more domains

can do the same like a normal eMailaccount

create/modify/delete eMailaddresses

create/modify/delete Forwardings

create/modify/delete CatchAll Address

3.) superadmin

can do the same like the admin

create/modify/delete domains

4.) superadmin manager

can do the same like the superadmin

create/modify/delete superadmins

All this actions can be done with the webinterface!

You can find some screenshots here.

Sorry all screenshots in german, but it based on Smarty so you can make your own template.

The Webinterface depends on php4, php4-mysql, php4-cli, mysql-server,smarty, php4-pear and some extra Pear Modules.

Devolo dLAN linux driver

nospam@example.com (Jonas Genannt) — Wed, 02 Aug 2006 23:13:52 +0200

Devolo dLAN USB drivers for the devolo network over power module.

If you try to compile the version 2.0 on an higher kernel than 2.6.13 you get the following error:

make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.16.18'
CC [M] /home/jonas/dLAN-linux-package-2.0/driver/devolo_usb.o
/home/jonas/dLAN-linux-package-2.0/driver/devolo_usb.c: In function `devolo_tx_timeout':
/home/jonas/dLAN-linux-package-2.0/driver/devolo_usb.c:205: error: `URB_ASYNC_UNLINK' undeclared (first use in this function)
/home/jonas/dLAN-linux-package-2.0/driver/devolo_usb.c:205: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
/home/jonas/dLAN-linux-package-2.0/driver/devolo_usb.c:205: error: for each function it appears in.)
make[3]: [/home/jonas/dLAN-linux-package-2.0/driver/devolo_usb.o] Error 1
make[2]: [module /home/jonas/dLAN-linux-package-2.0/driver] Error 2

The URB_ASYNC_UNLINK symbol is removed from the kernel.

This afternoon Alan Stern submitted a patch to remove the URB_ASYNC_UNLINK
flag from the Linux kernel. Mr. Stern explained, "This flag is a relic
from an earlier, less-well-designed system. For over a year it hasn't
been used for anything other than printing warning messages."

For the complete text klick here!

So remove the lines 204 till 208 in the file driver/devolo_usb.c.

Restart the make, and the driver will now compile fine and work.

Virtual emailsystem based on MySQL/postfix/Courier

nospam@example.com (Jonas Genannt) — Fri, 30 Jun 2006 00:32:42 +0200

I develop an easy webinterface for Postfix and Courier based on a MySQL Database.

Now it get a step closer to the finish.

Main work is done, now some subtleties need to be done.

Yes, and it's using smarty, so everyone can make his own style!

Thanks to Sven he provides me a vserver for testing!

Dear nameserver admins - please use correct SOA serial number

nospam@example.com (Jonas Genannt) — Tue, 23 May 2006 22:54:53 +0200

Please use a correct SOA serial number for your nameserver.

Discussed in the RFC 1912:

Decimal serial numbers have been officially deprecated in recent BIND versions. The recommended syntax is YYYYMMDDnn (YYYY=year, MM=month, DD=day, nn=revision number. This won't overflow until the year 4294.

So please use YYYYMMDDnn, so for the first entry on the day: 2006052301. For the second change on the same day use instead of 01 a 02!

mii-tool and 1Gbit/s links

nospam@example.com (Jonas Genannt) — Thu, 20 Apr 2006 02:34:43 +0200

Note to myself: mii-tool can't operate with 1Gbit/s and more.

Use ethtool, provides more informtion and has no 100Mbit/s limit.

It's in Debian, so apt-get install ethtool
