Remote XSession from Linux to Solaris
27 October, 2005, 08:22 am
This is a cool thing. You can get a remote XSession including the CDE logon as a virtual terminal on a Linux box. Execute this from the Linux box:
X (display #) -query (host of solaris box)
ie: adam@wooble $>X :2 -query fOrk
This will put the Solaris XSession on to the 2nd virtual console. You can switch back and forth between the Linux PC and the Solaris console using CTRL+ALT+F# (use F5 for the Linux PC, if you use :1 Solaris will be on F6, if you use :2 Solaris will be on F7 and so on)

27 October, 2005, 08:21 am
Oh yea! I'm going to attempt to build this monster on my Ultra30...wish me luck...LOL!
Whew, I did it. I got OpenSolaris to build and install on my Ultra30 (took like 8 hours with 256mb of RAM) and a Dell Optiplex GX1 (no audio support atm for the ISA Crystal sound)

Opening ports in the Fedora firewall the easy way...
27 October, 2005, 08:21 am
Found this excellent tutorial on opening ports on the built in firewall using iptables.
http://stanton-finley.net/fedora_core_3_installation_notes.html#Azureus
Suprisingly its for Azureus, just the program I wanted to open ports for. I dont know why there isn't a more in-depth GUI available for Fedora, though I know a lot of *nix users like it that way. I'm easy, if there is a GUI in the menu, lemme at it, but the command line is your friend.

Linux Packages
27 October, 2005, 08:20 am
Well, I've started to use Linux more and more, as my Solaris machine is where I want it. Its currently running my shell, secure SSL/TLS ftp site, and Bind server. Due to its paltry hardware and age, thats about all it's going to do. I still use it daily, but I've got some cheap PC hardware that Linux works great on, so this blog might start getting Linux tidbits more often.
:)
First up is some packages, rpm's for Samba 3.0.14a, built for Fedora Core 1, as Samba.org doesnt supply them. I'm still stuck in 2.4x kernel land, it just works better for me. You can get them at:
http://solaris.andarazoroflove.org/packages/linux
Enjoy, and watch for lots more!
