1. would someone be interested in merging this script with the Grex
page: http://arbornet.org/~veek/whofingerpeek.cgi
It does who, finger username, and peeks the party.log, via a web
interface - I've used the Grex home page as a template. Someone on
staff is working on something for finger but it isn't ready as yet. It
has a change time of Dec 09 (ls -c -lt).. I'm taking suggestions (color
changes, open() instead of backticks, limited-runs/minute,
finger-timeout, etc)
2. Would anyone be interested in a script to add a home page template
to their home dir? I have created my home-page:
http://www.grex.org/~veek/ (nothing fancy, but i thought this might be
useful since ppl can just copy it and modify it - i could do a tutorial
on this)
3. Tutorial on: 1. No typing password, ssh login. 2. Editing web
templates. 3. Maybe even a script to populate said template..

thanks :p , most of the hard work was done by the guy (remmers, me
thinks) who did the main website - the layout and design are super. I
just knocked out some of his content to make place for that form in the
center. I'll make it nicer but I think it's pretty safe as is (no .plan
reading for now).

re 93 ... vkewl ... couple thoghts ...
might want to add a 'select action' notation above the 'action' boxe.
reverse, left/rightr, the submit and lognin id box (first thisndgs first?)
and above the looginid box, add 'enter loginid here' directoin.
consider alloweing more than 8 chars in logind box ... also, will this work
with a completyly quaiflied identificatoin, such as mary@cyberspace.org ?
.. assuming more tha 8 chars are alloewed.
any particular reaosn the loginid box has a default value ... it;s ok, of
course, just wondering.

Re #96:
1. "select action" - mm.. actually what I could do is create a box like
so:
------------------------------
1.click here: to select Finger
2.click here: to select Who
I'll prettify that box so it looks nice.
2. "submit" "login" position - ha! that was carefully thought out. Out
of 3 actions, 2 don't require the login field so I placed it away
3. Oo forgot about @whatevers.. hmm.. validating email addresses
properly is pretty hard. Simple @cyberspace.org i can easily do. Right
now it won't - I only allow UNIX id's.. ^[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9-_.]{1,7}$
4. thought it might be easier to process.. i should have said something
like: enter loginid to finger, but that's more stuff to bkspace

I cannot respond by e-mail because e-mail does not work for free riders, not
even to staff.
The answer is in my pine scratch pad; I guess the staff can read it, and if
not, I shall file it in my home dir, or in /tmp.

What does he (or anyone) have to do to opt in? Send an e-mail to staff
and request e-mail access?

might make a lot of sense to display a message when a newuser logs in
stating what features are enabled/disabled/pending.
something like:
To validate your account, type: 'validate'
For E-mail access, run: 'e-validate'
To enable CGI scripts, run: 'cgi-validate'
To create your Home-page, run: 'myhomepage -c'
For more help, browse: http://cyberspace.org/newbie.xhtml
etc etc..

Yeah, that would work better than e-mailing from an account you can't
e-mail from ;)

resp:101 Good question. I don't think that was the OP's problem, though;
his account was not validated properly, and he was in the "newpeople" group.
He should be okay now.

It looked like he pre-dated the validate command. I ran 'validate' on him.

http://m-net.arbornet.org/~veek/flyer/
I'm trying to create a CSS flyer so people can take print outs of it and
post it up on boards (both IRL and on the net). It appears to render
nicely in Opera even in print preview, but when I print to a post-script
file it's all wonky..
Could someone test on their computer/printer? I'm on Linux and I checked
in Konqueror - web rendering seems to be perfect, BUT print-preview
comes up weird.. could someone check it out and stuff and if someone
knows css.. clue me in..

In print preview for Firefox 3.6.12 on WinXP it looks okay, but it flows
to a second page in portrait format. I didn't try to print it. The
content will require review if we go with this flyer. We want to be
sure we're accurate in how we describe Grex and that all the links work.
I'm not sure if the web-based newuser is working correctly yet or not.
Last I heard, it failed part way through the account generation process.
Did that get fixed? Can people use the web newuser page successfully?
