| 00:43.42 | spacecowboy | simonrvn question... |
| 00:43.51 | spacecowboy | simonrvn i was asking sour the toher day |
| 00:43.57 | spacecowboy | where the FAILLOG thing was |
| 00:44.13 | spacecowboy | when you login incorrectly in woody... it tells you when you login correctly |
| 00:44.17 | spacecowboy | that there was an error |
| 00:44.28 | simonrvn | dunno what you mean, i wasn't following that. oh, /var/log |
| 00:44.34 | spacecowboy | simonrvn no |
| 00:44.40 | spacecowboy | simonrvn it has to do with the login |
| 00:44.52 | spacecowboy | like motd does that login stuff |
| 00:45.04 | spacecowboy | but its like that |
| 00:45.08 | simonrvn | look in /var/log |
| 00:45.20 | spacecowboy | :( nobody understands what i'm saying |
| 00:45.27 | spacecowboy | hmm |
| 00:45.31 | simonrvn | -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.5M 2004-01-15 08:27 /var/log/faillog |
| 00:45.49 | simonrvn | @lart spacecowboy |
| 00:45.58 | spacecowboy | i don't get what your saying |
| 00:46.05 | spacecowboy | yes... that is the faillog |
| 00:46.07 | spacecowboy | but... |
| 00:46.11 | spacecowboy | in woody |
| 00:46.15 | spacecowboy | if you login incorrectly |
| 00:46.17 | spacecowboy | and it notices |
| 00:46.18 | simonrvn | that's what he was talking about i think |
| 00:46.20 | spacecowboy | then it tells you |
| 00:46.33 | spacecowboy | when you do infact login correctly |
| 00:46.33 | simonrvn | yes, of course. auth.log would have such a thing too |
| 00:46.46 | spacecowboy | well... he said there was an option |
| 00:46.48 | spacecowboy | in a /etc file |
| 00:46.55 | simonrvn | to do what? |
| 00:47.17 | spacecowboy | to tell the computer at login to look for failed logins... and from what tty and what time and how many |
| 00:47.28 | spacecowboy | like just for giggles i just did it twice for root |
| 00:48.09 | spacecowboy | and it says when i logged in correctly, 2 failures since last login. Last was 19:24:12 on tty5 |
| 00:48.10 | simonrvn | it keeps a track yes. dunno anything about "looking for them". it just keeps a track of them in log files |
| 00:48.45 | simonrvn | it will do that for the user that had the failures |

| 01:07.50 | Proteque_ | it dows not give any output at all |
| 01:08.05 | Proteque_ | does the gfx-card has to be in a spesific slot? |
| 01:08.56 | simonrvn | dunno. maybe you have a picky pci slot. the 7500 (pmac) was like that |
| 01:09.22 | Proteque_ | hmmm maybe |
| 01:10.11 | Proteque_ | I hate that I cant see the of-output on these |
| 01:10.17 | spacecowboy | simonrvn well where is the file to configure it? |

| 01:13.44 | Proteque_ | iy is c to boot from cdrom on oldworld too right? |
| 01:14.02 | Proteque_ | it even |
| 01:14.37 | Proteque_ | this doesnt look good |
| 01:15.04 | Proteque_ | can I reset the nvram with a keycombo on these or do I have to have serielconsole for such tasks? |
| 01:18.14 | spacecowboy | i think you can |
| 01:18.18 | spacecowboy | its something weird thoug |
| 01:18.19 | spacecowboy | h |

| 01:18.55 | Proteque_ | I cant get it to boot at all now. |
| 01:19.08 | Proteque_ | it chimes and the cdrom spinups but after that nothing. |
| 01:19.41 | pook | isnt it apple key an C |
| 01:19.54 | pook | for newworld |
| 01:20.04 | Proteque_ | only c on newworld |
| 01:20.44 | pook | you machine must be munted then |
| 01:20.45 | Proteque_ | my guess is that OF "tells" something important now. |
