AFAIK, msn tries to authenticate using port 1863 and a few others. If all of them are blocked, then it will use HTTP authentication, and that is when the squid rules come into play. Before this happens, I have found them not to work. You have to block msn access in iptables and in squid to be on the...

Hi Guys, The 2nd meetup went cool. It was more of a distro war and this time the sponsor was Pizza Hut and not the chicky. Apparently the chicky is too Microsoftish. So we went to Pizza Hut and I believe PH is more open source than KFC. Any ways, we talked about distros and about ppl in Multan worki...

I would suggest that a friendly Urdu touch typing competition be included in the meet. Such activity can further enhance the ambiance provided by kfc. BTW do these guys get chickens from kentucky? Regarding the urdu touch typing contest, jess i really appreciate your sincere efforts/concern about u...

Nothing to worry about actually. Linuxgeek is in Multan today i.e. 31st of May and he is supposed to meet me after 6 pm. That is when the demise will take place. I posted a news from the future.

Uppal!! You are DEAD MEAT!!!. Watch out dude!! Dear LP Members, I post this with a heavy heart that our dear Mr. Uppal aka Linuxgeek departed us forever for an eternal life on the 31st of May 2005 when he was back to his hometown Multan for a visit to his parents and friends. May his soul rest in pe...

eth0 may fail to come up because you have set it to get ip from DHCP. It will look for a DHCP server and if it doesnt find one, it will print the failed message. Try this as root. /sbin/ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 That should bring up eth0. The netmask is optional and you can ski...

i need one or two experienced linux people. trouble is, almost everyone who applies for the job is either outside lahore, or not all that great. (i still can't figure out why people in karachi apply for a job when they're not even going to show up for the interview. waste of my time.) i've been try...

I thought my photoblog ws safely tucked away in the deep dark corners but hats off to FADAIN for bringing it out into the limelight of fame. Thnx Fadain. We should definitely do it more often.

hey Farhan, long time no see man..where have you been? Regarding your question, i have one concern. If you are thinking about blocking a web request to a particular website, it might not be blocked by iptables as the destination address will be that of the next hop gateway and the website address is...

What are your needs as desktop user? I install and test loads of open source software and I dont have the time to resolv dependencies. Its so friggin tiring after downloading a 5 MB library and compiling it (on dialup) just to find out that it needs one more software as well. Also, the menus in Gno...
