  • socket: Permission denied

    After upgrading my Guruplug Display from Lenny to Squeeze I came along an odd error; every non-root user was unable to access anything related to the internet. NTP: Mar 26 20:31:50 localhost ntpd[1055]: ./../lib/isc/unix/ifiter_ioctl.c:348: unexpected error: Mar 26 20:31:50 localhost ntpd[1055]: making interface scan socket: Permission denied Mar 26 20:35:09 localhost ntpd[1055]: ntpd exiting on…

  • sudo: must be setuid root

    Got this error on my Guruplug Display after messing with it. Neither was I able to use su, or any other important command. After many chmods, chowns, and cursing — check your mount (in /etc/fstab) options… 😉 Be sure / is not mounted with nosetuid Reboot and enjoy!

  • Great Firewall checker

  • Dropbox & Debian

    Dropbox has been removed from the Debian package list due to licensing issues.

Head over to Linux Mint and download both Dropbox (version 1.0.1) and Nautilus-Dropbox (version 0.6.7-lmde > i386 or amd64). run: dpkg -i…

  • nginx: could not build the server_names_hash

    I’ve recently started switching my custom nginx installations to the Debian repository version. So from 0.9.4 to 0.6.32 (Lenny), which will be upgraded to 0.7.x in Squeeze. I’ve come across this error on certain servers: # /etc/init.d/nginx restart Restarting nginx: 2011/02/11 11:34:58 [emerg] 3624#0: could not build the server_names_hash, you should increase server_names_hash_bucket_size: 32 nginx.…
