At my previous job I was always using dst port or src port and usually to try to filter out the traffic I *didn't* want to see. Regardless, it's still a pain to match up the captures each way to get the complete dialog. Cheers, Dave -- Politics, n.

Time Lapse with a Webcam
by Thomas Paine 24 Apr '07

24 Apr '07

I'm getting ready to begin a deck project in the back yard this weekend and I thought it would be cool to take some time lapse pictures with my webcam during the build process. It there any utilities that will do this with Fedora automatically? I'd really like it if there was some software that would then put the pics all together into a minimovie for later playback. Has anyone done something like this before? Thanks. -- -=/>Thom

rss2email gives: Fatal error: could not connect to mail server "localhost"
by Thufir 24 Apr '07

24 Apr '07

google groups had little to say on this, aside from making sure that the network time protocol, ntp, is working. It works everytime the pc boots, only failing if I've forgotten to plug in an ethernet cord. anyhow, the internet is working. should I change from "localhost" to something else? What's this message indicative of, please? Admittedly, my searching wasn't particularly thorough... (no, I shouldn't be running as root.)

Capture OOPS
by Ashley M. Kirchner 24 Apr '07

24 Apr '07

Seems I've asked this before, but I'll be darned if I can find the answer somewhere in my archives. I need to capture a kernel OOPS somehow. I've got a server that seems to be trigger happy and locking up/crashing once every 24 hours or so. The unfortunate thing is that I'm not there when it happens to look on the monitor and see if I can discern anything from there (usually one of the other guys come in before me and they simply hit the reset button because they don't understand the gibberish on screen anyway.) So, I need to figure out a way to capture that OOPS. Since it's not send to syslog, I can't send it to another machine for logging. What other methods are there of doing this? This machine doesn't have a serial link that I can link up to another either. So, anyone? -- W | It's not a bug - it's an undocumented feature. +-------------------------------------------------------------------- Ashley M.

It will not capture the response since the response will not be through port 80; the response to a request will be to some randomly assigned, non-privileged port. If you assume that most inbound traffic to non-privileged ports consists of HTTP responses, you could just filter out all inbound traffic to privileged ports (port # < 1024). Depending on what you allow users to do, you may also get some chat/instant messenger traffic, P2P file sharing, etc. This may also be of interest depending on what you're looking for. If you specifically need to match HTTP requests with the response, you may need to look into one of the commercial network monitoring applications. These work by capturing all traffic and matching the half-sessions to recreate the complete dialog. This is a much harder problem but these products allow the user who made a particular request to be identified and associated with the response. Cheers, Dave -- Politics, n.

Desktop Effects
by Jan Welker 23 Apr '07

23 Apr '07

Hello, I'm using FC6 on my IBM T30. It works really well. If I switch on the Desktop Effects everything works just fine. The cube, the transparency ... but if I switch a window to full screen it looses it's border and it's title bar. All I see is the content of the window and an white space, where the title bar is supposed to be. Any ideas? Cheers, Jan -- UNIX is user friendly, it's just picky about who it's friends are.
