Angstrom & OpenZaurus / ssh password

« on: September 30, 2004, 09:08:04 am »

I think thers some comfusion here.

ssh = secure shell (not file transfer)
scp = secure copy mechanism (file transfer)
sftp = secure file transfer

It sounds like we are mixing up what your trying to do

dropbear as installed by default supports ssh and scp

if the app your using tries to use sftp for transfer it will fail with the unable to find sftp-server this is correct as it doesnt exist. (multisync etc)

Apps that use scp for transfer are not affected

if you remove dropbear and install openssh from the upgrades feed you will now be supporting ssh scp and sftp

behaviour should now be the same as 3.3.6

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / ipkg-link doesn't obey /etc/ipkg.conf dest entries

is that starting it from the command line .

if it is it cant find it cause it looks for it from where you start it.

cd into the folder conraining the executable and start it from there

or is it from knights?

if so ensure that you have a link from /opt/QtPalmtop to /opt/Qtopia

at least until knights links are fixed.

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Where'd it go??

« on: September 30, 2004, 06:58:27 am »

dont use package manager its bust

use aqpkg
or ipkg manually (this will require a reboot to reload incons)

failing this there is a reload icons prog in hentges feeds this can be installed safely as its a script.

this does (as it says on the tin) reload icons

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / Bug in feed version of opie-reader

« on: September 30, 2004, 06:54:13 am »

Thanx for that it was a bit of a showstopper for me

I had installed libopie1 and opie-reader-gcc3 from 5thtoe to get round it

now I've been able to clean up and use the feed version

thanks again

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / OZ 3.5.1 - Mount / on sd card?

« on: September 30, 2004, 06:39:06 am »

I improved performance on collie

by instead of creating a new /proc

linking /mnt/root/proc to /proc on the SD

this has the advantage that the dynamic filesystem is on the fast ram and also cleared a problem where aqpkg would not start (recursuvly traversing the proc file strucure)

I guess it also lowers the load on the SD

the upgrade feed still suffers from the problem reported above

/opt/QtPalmtop/chess/engines/Phalanx/phalanx: 1: Syntax error: "(" unexpected

if your really desperate

install phalanx and knight from 3.5.1 feed and upgrades

make symlink from /opt/Qtopia to /opt/QtPalmtop
(knights trys to call phalanx from qtopia directory (believe coredump may have fixed this but not in upgrades yet)

copy the phalanx binary from 3.3.6 to /opt/QtPalmtop/chess/engines/Phalanx

dont forget Phalanx needs to be executable ;-)

Start knights and enjoy.

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / sync between 3.5.1 and multisync fails

« on: September 22, 2004, 10:42:14 am »

Yes ftp (file transfer protocal) and sftp (secure file transfer protocal) are the two methods that multisync can use to talk to your Z

yet the Z only has an application call dropbear (which provide scp (secure copy))

as the two machines cannot talk the same language they cannot communicate.

In old OZ releases secure comminuications were provided by openssh which besides scp offered sftp and therfore worked.

I have yet to find a FTPd (ftp server that waits for connections) or sftpd for the zaurus OZ 3.5.1

SO whats require is an openssh release or someone to recompile Trolltechs ftp server for OZ 3.5.1

Or Multisync to add an scp option

Angstrom & OpenZaurus / sync between 3.5.1 and multisync fails

« on: September 22, 2004, 08:29:07 am »

I may be wrong
But openssh supports sftp but dropbear only supports scp which multisync doesn't.

this beaks multisync I have logged a bug for this

Hi how did you get multisync functioning
