Fresh installation of a Debian Netinst System 
Thursday, August 30, 2007, 11:50 AM - Linux
Last weekend I had to reinstall my workstation,because my SATA HDD crashed. I installed the Debian Netinst 4.0 r0 from www.debian.org.
Netinst is a small an base version of Debian Etch 4.0. There are only base packages, like vi, make, apt-get, and so on without a graphical interface (there is just a CLI (command line interface)).

At first I installed some packages from an internet apt-source to compile my own kernel (2.6.22.5 at this time), to get a GUI (graphical user interface), and some more packages.
Package list:
vim
libncurses5-dev
make
gcc
tar
bzip2
ssh
xserver-xorg
xfonts-75dpi
xfonts-100dpi
xfonts-base


For the next step I installed the KDE but just the base version. I didn't want to have a lot of packages installed which I wont use in the future.
kdebase
kdebase-dev
kdm


I also use NTFS HDD so I installed a NTFS driver for writting support and I also needed a printer management console (cups)
cupsys
fuse
captive-ntfs


My workstation is also used as a small server just for the intranet. Here I uses these packages.
apache-ssl
libphp-apache
mysql
phpmyadmin
samba
smbfs
screen
sendmail


Instead of a MS Office on a Windows I use OpenOffice.org for Linux and some other applications.
adobe reader
openoffice.org
firefox
java
flashplayer
thunderbird
ark
xmms
xmms-agent
xmms-arts
k3b
vlc
mplayer
kmix
kradio
xawtv
gimp
kwireless-tools
wireless-tools


Last but not least for some chat messengers I use different packages.
amsn
kopete
skype


Now there should be a small office workstation with some server functions fully functional.

...cleaning up the blog 
Tuesday, August 28, 2007, 12:19 PM - Updates
So, now I cleaned up the blog.
There were some unbeautiful styles and looks in it.

One big thing was the size of the posted images, I edit the size in the blog and add a automatic onlick function to open the images in the original size.
The other gruesome look were the motorcycle images and placements of them.

OpenSSH - Bad SSH login 
Saturday, June 16, 2007, 01:08 PM - Linux
Hi,

I had the problem, that I can't login to my linux server via ssh. I found a lot of results in the search engines but there was no working result for me.
The following error message was:
'username'@'hostname':~$ ssh localhost -l 'username'
ssh Permission denied (publickey)

After the search, I doenloaded the old and stable version of openssh (openssh-server 1:4.3p2-9) and remove the old one (openssh-server 1:4.6p1-1).
After this, I only had to delete the file or the clear the file
/home/'username'/.ssh/known_hosts

and it worked very well.

Cool WM5 Tools for HTC P3300 
Thursday, June 14, 2007, 05:36 PM - Mobiles
Today I found a good tool for Windows Mobile 5.0 and also for my HTC P3300.

...a WLAN Sniffer. A simple software but I have to test it in the next days.
Here are some screenshots:


Test Results:
It's good to detect WLANs but the encryption failed. So this is just for watching for WLANs.

I will search some more tools to 'hack' WLANs.

New bike(s) in the future... 
Tuesday, June 12, 2007, 08:00 AM - Private
Hi biker friends!

Last weekend I was in Croatia (Crkvenica) with a 'little' biker group.
There were a lot of motorcycles they are better and faster then my bike is. I also was on the racetrack in Rijeka. What I saw there was crazy - some racing bikes (R1, R6 and so on)

Now I got lust for a faster bike. I think I will buy it next or in the next two years.
Here you can see some picutres of the bikes. I will buy one of them.

Honda CBF 1000

Honda VTR 1000 Fire Storm

Suzuki Bandit 1250 S

Suzuki GSX-R 1000 (most claimed)

Yamaha MT-01

We will see what my next bike is.... :-)
