Re: ipop3d not moving mail from /var/spool/mail to mbox
No concrete solution to the problem, but did you notice that the default location for the mailboxes has changed from /var/spool/mail to /var/mail? Huh? At least exim's fresh configuration file still says: file = /var/spool/mail/${local_part} Try stracing the ipop3d process and look what exactly it's doing... Unfortunately ipop3d is an inetd service. Inetd, once you run it, just forks and exits leaving you no chance to strace the actual services. :( - Jarno -- No group of professionals meets except to conspire against the public at large. -- Mark Twain -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Linux Virtual Server question(s)
Greetings, I am in need of adding more servers for redundancy sake as well performance. I have beeen looking at using the Linux Virtual Server project for load balancing and redundacy of accounts. I thought I would see if anyone on the list is using LVS, has any thoughts or would like to recommend something better. The main things I am looking for are: * easy to add new nodes * easy to manage user accounts * new nodes being added don't have to be hardware specific * load balancing and some fault tolerance I look forward to hearing what the list recommends. If you are currently using LVS, I would be very interested as to how you went about setting things up.

Re: firewire storage solution recommended
Hello Thomas R. Shemanske [EMAIL PROTECTED], I bought Datafab MD2-FW-USB External 2.5 IDE HDD Enclosure today and successfully work in my debian notebook. My question is-- is it possible to use 1394 HUB to connect some 1394 storage device and some Linux servers and make it a 1394-based NAS environment? Can two Linux servers mount the same 1394 storage device and access at the same time? On Wed, 06 Feb 2002 10:31:10 -0500 Thomas R.

If the question is can two hosts access the same 1394 device at the same time ?, the answaer is probably yes, as long as everything is eletrically set up properly, and that drivers/firmwares support that kind of things. But if question is can two hosts mount the same 1394 device (in R/W mode) at the same time ?, the answer is definetly no. At least with conventional FS (ext2/3, fat, etc.), for various reasons, including : kernel level read/write cache, which can assume things about what's on the drive and what's not (yet), no locking, etc. -- Nicolas BOUGUES Axialys Interactive -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
