Sendmail config for laptop without network connection
*** Culprit: sendmail-8.12.5-7 on RH 8.0 but probably me instead. Problem: Make sendmail put my mail in queue when I'm not on the network and send it when I'm back home. Client: Pine 4.44... :-) I use a very basic sendmail.cf file and send all mail to my hub at home which does the rest. I'm using the same (slightely adjusted for the latest sendmail version) sendmail.mc file I used until now, with specifically "FEATURE(`delay_checks')dnl" in the sendmail.mc file and To:linuxix.2y.net RELAY Connect:linuxix.2y.net RELAY in the /etc/mail/access file per instructions of /usr/share/sendmail-cf/README file: delay_checksThe rulesets check_mail and check_relay will not be called when a client connects or issues a MAIL command, respectively. Instead, those rulesets will be called by the check_rcpt ruleset; they will be skipped under certain circumstances. See "Delay all checks" in the anti-spam configuration control section. Note: this feature is incompatible to the versions in 8.10 and 8.11. According to me and the instruction above, all checks should be postponed and I should be able to put mail in the queue while away. However, sendmail is complaining with: ruleset=check_mail, arg1=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=zoki@localhost, reject=553 5.1.8 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>... Domain of sender address [EMAIL PROTECTED] does not exist I'm overlooking something, but what?

It boils down to my hardware being insufficient for the job - seems to be the video hardware. I'm doing two things. I'm getting another movie - an earlier one that may run. The reason I think it might is that this one I have now for testing would not run in Windows and I had two other movies that did. So far even with the 4MB graphics card that I have - PCI, I have gotten the video to play with sound using mplayer in linux *if* I use -framedrop which will drop frames in order to sync the sound and video. That is a lot more than I got in Windows using PowerDVD. I bought an AGP video card with 32Mb of video ram today. I'll try it first in the Microtel and leave it there if it works right. If not, I'll put it in my other computer and move the drive back there. In this process I've learned quite a bit more about video thanks to a helpful person on the mplayer list. I've been wondering for a few years ever since I put my computer together - what AGP was. I never bothered to look it up. Well, now I know. Very handy info when you are trying to do heavy video work. I may go with ogle after all is said and done, because it really is a very simple program to install and operate. Nice thing about mplayer, though, is that you can use it in console mode. I'm thinking I read something about ogle being able to do that too.

Re: Where's the LHD?
What i normalyl do when i'm considering purchasing new haredware, and want to verify functionality under Linux is the following: 1) Check the kernel. First grep in /usr/src/linux/Dcoumentation. That's a guarenteed way to know if its supported. 2) Go to groups.google.com and search the linux NG's to see what us commoners have run into already. 3) Go to the vendor's website, and see if they offer any linux support for that component. If you come up dry on all 3, then you're most likely going to end up with something that is windoze only.

Re: MechWarrior 2
If you get some time, that would be great. If TransGaming says it doesn't work very well, I don't think I'd ask you to spend much time on it. As for whether it's an acquired taste, I own it, I like it... but I let it go a while back because I had too much to do to play in-depth games much. Although seeing MechIV has caused me to rethink that. I think I need to try Mech3 Mercs or just get MechIV (although I don't feel like sending Microsoft any more money). What I've seen of MechIV looks like it's indeed better than Mech2. I like the Mercenary idea.

Now when I co to ./config a buils I get the following: [root@RickSivernell autoconf-2.57]# ./configure bash: ./configure: bad interpreter: Permission denied [root@RickSivernell autoconf-2.57]# I have reinstalled the bash* from the image disk, and still have the proble. Using eWorkstation 3.1.1 on previously runing system. All of the rebuild because of a flakey hard drive. Any help here appreciated.

Re: xterm/tty problems
Something easy to check is the TERM environment variable. The value should have come across the rlogin from the originating session but that doesn't mean that it's correct. There is also a possibility that it's being reset in the .bashrc/.profile scripts. To check it: $ echo $TERM To set it: $ export TERM=vt220 Good luck, Brad. --- Alan Jackson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > A colleague at work asked me the following, and I > couldn't quite remember > how to fix it. > > She logs into a Linux frontend for our beowolf > cluster, using rlogin, and > when she runs man, it leaves the xterm in a state > such that everything is > underlined after that.
