well dudes,

 

it seems this is a thriving linux os,

 

currently on distrowatch.com its number 1

 

beating Ubuntu !

 

check it out (screenshot)

 

do any of you use this os ? I think i'll give it a test run and maybe a review

Quote:'PCLinuxOS was originally based on another distribution under the name of Mandriva and shares many features of Mandriva such as the Control Center and the Draklive Installer. Texstar and team would like to thank the developers, contributors and others associated with Mandriva who may have indirectly contributed to the PCLinuxOS distribution. 

In addition to Mandriva, PCLinuxOS would also like to thank the developers of the Gentoo, OpenSuSE, Fedora, Debian and Ubuntu as we also use patches and bugs fixes from those distributions."
 

cheers

  Packet Sniffer (Open Source please)
Posted by: Deltanoob - 2007-09-13, 02:39 AM - Forum: Security - Replies (2)


Ok i have been using protowall, and i have heard that it like a packet sniffer but it only scans the header.

So now i want to get a real packet sniffer for absolute protection. But, which one? I would prefer an open source sniffer.

BTW anyone here know how to get protowall to work in Vista?

 

And to give back to the forum here is my list for the best security tools:

 

1.) Avast Anti-Virus

2.) Spybot Search and Destroy

3.) Protowall

4.) Super Anti Spyware

 

Thanks for reading. Now please respond.

  Truecrypt
Posted by: fastc0der - 2007-09-11, 02:25 PM - Forum: How Do I? - Replies (5)


I have vectorlinux 5.8 SOHO installed.

 

I want to use truecrypt; I have many encrypted volumes and want to load them on linux.

 

At the truecrypt download page, [/url][url=http://www.truecrypt.org/downloads.php]http://www.truecrypt.org/downloads.php there was no option for slackware, so the only choice was to download the source file and compile it.

After downloading the source, i read the readme and tried to follow the commands, but it didn't work out.

 

Can anyone give me step by step procedure to install truecrypt...

  Easy question - How do I combine scp & ssh?
Posted by: linoox - 2007-09-11, 02:51 AM - Forum: How Do I? - Replies (1)


Hi. I'm a newbie and working on a shell script.

 

Trying to first get one small file from a web server -- wget [/url][url=http://test.com/myfile.xml]http://test.com/myfile.xml

 

Then I need to scp it to the db server. I've set up a single-purpose ssh keys and by running this can connect w/out entering password:

 

ssh -i ~/.ssh/whoisit MyHostName

 

 

My problems is this: when I run scp myfile.xml MyHostName:/dir1/dir2/myfile.xml, I get prompted for password.

If I run the ssh command above, I instantly connect to the db server and cannot scp, because I'm already on the remote machine.

 

So, my question is how do I utilize the ssh keys I've set up with scp. I just want to:

1) wget file

2) activate the ssh key, so I connect to the db server w/out entering password

3) copy the file to db servers /dir1/dir2

4) do some kind of a check if the file made it there allright

 

Thank you,

  usb tuner card with freej
Posted by: wirylattice - 2007-09-10, 04:14 PM - Forum: Printers, Scanners and Other Hardware - No Replies


HI

 

I have found this software [/url][url=http://freej.org/]http://freej.org/ that I think is great. I would like to use this with a composite signal from my dvd player on my laptop. I bought a hauppauge wintv pvr usb2 card, which works great with mythtv, mplayer and vlc. But I can't make freej open the stream. I think the issue might be that the driver is partially v4l2, although I am no expert on this. Any suggestions to a usb card that I can use that will work with this program?

 

Alternatively, do you know some software that can mix several video layers and make scriptable animations that would work with the stream from the hauppauge usb2 card?

 

Thank you

  Noob: Offline Install of WMP54G
Posted by: SFXBrandon - 2007-09-08, 03:24 PM - Forum: Fedora 7 - Replies (14)


I have downloaded FWcutter, Ndiswrapper, and the Windows Firmware for my card.

 

The problem is, the HOWTO wants to do a yum command, only i have no internet connection on that computer. So "YUM" wont work.

 

This is my first time using Linux, so I have no clue what i am doing.

 

I have a Linksys WMP54G with a Broadcom BCM4306 chipset.

 

Please help.
