Adding samba clients to samba server
by Scott R. Ehrlich 12 Mar '08

12 Mar '08

I have an application that requires the use of netbios names instead of IP addresses, and the company that produces the application says that's the way it is. I have a Windows XP machines running the application, and I want to add it to a domain controller. I have a Centos 5 machine onto which I've installed Samba and configured it to be a DC. I now want to add a couple linux workstations, also running samba, to this domain controller as workstations. I've done this millions of times under Windows, but never added a samba client to a samba server/dc. How do I do so? It is my hope that this will permit me to then use the application, as I'll have added the XP machine to the Samba DC, too, thus hoping netbios names work properly. Thanks. Scott

alternatives package?
by Eric B. 11 Mar '08

11 Mar '08

Hi, In my struggle today to get python2.4 installed on my CentOS4 system, I saw that it installed a packaged called alternatives which is supposed to handle symbolic links to default commands in a nice clean, structured way. However, I am having trouble understanding how this thing works. I have read the man page half a dozen times already, and yet the alternative link for python which was installed doesn't seem to follow what is written in the man page. I am trying to modify the default behaviour for it, but having a lot of difficulty. Of course, with a name like "alternatives", it makes searching Google, tldp.com, etc very difficult. Does anyone have experience with this package and/or can anyone point me in the direction of some good examples, documentation for it? Something a bit more explanative than the man page. Thanks! Eric

finding configure prefixes for RPMs?
by Rogelio 11 Mar '08

11 Mar '08

I would like to make a minor change in C and (re)compile a particular cgi file for a program that was originally installed via package. How do I find which configure prefixes were used on the RPMforge program I 'yum install'-d so that I can run the same command again when I run 'make' on the changed source code?

Python 2.4 on CentOS4?
by Eric B. 11 Mar '08

11 Mar '08

Hi, Has anyone managed to find a Python 2.4 rpm binary that can be installed on CentOS4? I'm running CentOS4.6 and an application that I want to use required python 2.4 or greater. All the CentOS/RHEL4 python rpms that I find are all for python 2.3. I can't seem to find anything that works with CentOS4 libs. Thanks! Eric

Linux Sound Architecture (Updated)
by Ross S. W. Walker 11 Mar '08

11 Mar '08

I forgot the most important part in the original, the kernel! (I hope the ASCII art doesn't get mangled) I have been working a while trying to get a big picture of how Linux handles sound processing and after much work I have put together this little representation of what I have learned. Please send me any additional comments or components that I may have missed. I hope it helps somebody though who may be struggling in getting sound to work and just needs some idea of how all the parts fit together. There really needs to be some concise, up-to-date Wiki on Linux sound processing and how the different applications work and work together (or not).

Gateway FHD2400
by Robert Spangler 11 Mar '08

Hi, Anyone have this type of monitor hooked up and running? Any issues that I should be aware of? I've hooked this monitor up to my system. I have a Nvidia card FX550 with 256MB Ram. I haven't done anything special with it, still learning the in's and out's of the monitor. So far so good. Guess time will tell. -- Regards Robert Smile... it increases your face value!
