Regular dhcp (as found on dsl or cable modems) is a different animal. My IP for instance is pseudo-static, I've had the same IP since dirt. I'm allowed up to 8 IPs on this cable modem, and I can but the Linux laptop up in it once a week and ALWAYS get the same IP. That's where the problem comes in. Not so much with dial up, because those customers never run mail servers or any other services anyway. I support 4 medium size companies with statics. Until 4 months ago when I started bitching really loudly about static reverses being indistinguishable from dynamic reverses one or two of these would would get listed in sorbs every month or two. And it was always listed under dynamic IP, never under any of the other spammer categories. (I do egress filtering, so even if they get a worm its not going anywhere). It just so happens that these clients are shuttling large engineering documents between branch offices and other companies, and can't wait while the ISPs mail server chokes on these large document, so they run their own mail servers. It took me (and a few other system maintainers around the state) 4 months of bitching to get their policy changed so that statics have the word "static" in the reverse. One of my cohorts reported that his static was listed in sorbs as a dynamic IP AGAIN after this happened. The truth is that sorbs does no checking at all. Its totally unreliable. Blocking on dynamic IP is collective punishment, universally condemned in every other area of society except fighting spam it would seem. The ISP still will not allow the subscriber to specify the reverse. But that's another topic. -- _ John Andersen pgpffZaglpMTo.pgp Description: PGP signature

If the command "date" shows UTC time, then the time has to be set also using UTC. But that command allows displaying and setting the time in any standard.

Re: [opensuse] DCOP server error
Hi Leen... Thanks for the quick answer. Here's were I'm at as of now: Did you read the first lines of /etc/profile? In short: better use /etc/profile.local instead of /etc/profile. But modifying /etc/profile in itself probably is not the cause. I'm trying to change the UMASK to "". I'm doing this so that when this client accesses an NFS share, it keeps chmod 777 permissions on all files that it makes. I'm controlling access to NFS export via IP address, and I want all clients authorized to see the NFS export to be able to exchange data freely. That being said, will doing the /etc/ profile.local do the same thing? Are you sure the changes you made do not contain syntax errors? All I changed in the profile file was the entry for umask, and I changed it to . Any errors reported in /home//.xsession-errors, and/or /var/log/Xorg.*.log? I'll have to go back and look. I archived my "bad" Linux virtual hard drives, and I can restore them to take a look. On a side note, I also noticed that these problems began to show up when I did the following while logged in as non-root: sudo -s ifdown eth0 ifup eth0 I was simply trying to force the virtual machine into reacquiring a new IP address.

I apparently missed this when it was first posted to the list, and found it via google, but don't see any followups. We're seeing the same problem. Installs will hang on the serial console, pressing a key will allow it to continue on for awhile. We're different in that it's SLES9-SP3 but using a kernel built from the SLES10 src.rpm, and we're using no flow control. I found a patch for RHEL4 kernel 2.6.9-42 that talks about fixing a hanging serial console (from Alan Cox) but the changes to the file are so great (even complete changes in struct types) that I can't get that patched.

Right up front, have postfix do sanity checks, greylisting, etc - that will block a large amount of spam with little effort. 2. use amavis+spamassasin+clamav - very powerful tools that ship with suse, and if you supplement the stock rules with the best custom rules from rules emporium and goodies like the botnet plugin, the fuzzyocr plugin etc, that can takes the effectiveness of the filter from the 80-90% range up to the 98-99% and better range. 3.

Of course you can do that in Digikam- that is what the Digikam plugins
and Kipi plugins are for. You should:
(1) Make sure all the plugins you want are activated in Settings->
"Configure DigiKam"-> "Image Plugins".
(2) Right click on the image and choose "Edit".
"Red Eye Reduction", "Colour Balance" are under the menu "Fix". "Crop",
etc are under "Transform". Add "Border" is under "Image". Effects are
under "Filters". In my copy of Digikam (version 0.90), there are 29
plugins in addition to the core Digikam plugins. You should explore the
menus. :-)

I use the filters built into KMail, but they seem almost worthless. If you are running a postfix mailserver you have the perfect means to kill off most of the spam by rejecting the mail. Do you really administer the mx server of your domain? The problem is that each setup has specific needs and you can't use one-approach-fits-all-situation recipe. That's why I am a bit careful about giving concrete advice without knowing your situation and needs. My company is using a postfix mailgateway to weed out most spam and viruses before spamassassin even gets the opportunity to check the rest of the accepted mails. In any case, you have to decide for yourself how important it is not to reject mails from badly configured servers, that you still want to accept or to reduce the number of spams effectively. If you want to reduce spam to a comfortable small number you can either invest money (buy the neccessary expertise) or time (understand the system). You won't get a reasonable result without investing some hours into spamfighting. Sandy -- List replies only please!

(^-^) I don't know if they are in the same address space. They have a very wide space, and for those some are administratively static and some dynamic. Mine is currently 83.32..., dynamic and, for example, 213.96... are static. Physically, they are handled by the same set of machines, so it is really an administrative decision which are dynamic or static (the radius configuration, I think). You know, how they do the divisioning is just their decision. They can have mixed ranges, or not, I don't really know. If a provider says such range is static, well, it should be.

Not every country works in the same way ;-) For example... people here chose provider X because it offers 20 Mbit, and cheaper than the "main" provider. In fact, they are hiring the access in bulk from the main provider at bulk prices - so whether they really are using another ISP is questionable.

Not very nice... Ok, suppose they don't do such things. I'm just interested in a theoretical question :-) Suppose I have the static IP "W.X.Y.Z" Suppose I have a domain name, like "mydomainname.es". The rDNS would say, for instance, "Z.W.X.Y.staticIP.someprovider.net". Now, could I define the "mydomainname.es" to point to ""Z.W.X.Y.staticIP.provider.net", instead of IP "W.X.Y.Z."? Ie: On contracted DNS (might be the ISP or not): mydomainname.es --> pointer to Z.W.X.Y.staticIP.someprovider.net By ISP: Z.W.X.Y.staticIP.someprovider.net --> W.X.Y.Z W.X.Y.Z --> Z.W.X.Y.staticIP.someprovider.net What I want to know, theoretically, is if that would work as far as having a matching reverse DNS - even if later there are other checks that deny access.

[opensuse] 10.2: swsusp no longer works
Did an update from 10.1 to 10.2 using the 10.2-DVD. Now swsusp no longer
works. Using "Suspend computer" from the KDE-Logoff menu blanks the screen,
gives 2 messages "preparing suspend" and "resuming" and I am back in KDE.
"swsusp" on the commandline says even less. Output of "strace swsusp" follows:

I tried to install some kind of video program the other day and when it told me to issue a password, I tried my usual one, and it said I had to have eight characters. It didn't offer me a choice. I don't remember what the program was, at this point. I aborted the install. I have no quarrel with anyone who wants or needs a more complex password, but I don't want to be forced to select one which I will immediately forget unless I do write it on a note by the computer.

Doesn't say whether Novell/SUSE was pressuring him to return but in what I consider a very smart move they did re-hire him. Other articles say he is the team leader for kernel quality and already has a full workload. Notice the total lack of marketing from Novell/SUSE on this. In the article he states he was burnt-out and the year off did him a world of good. Now he is coming back to the distribution he helped start because its what-he-wants-to-do-for-a-job and really likes to do it. He even says the Novell/Microsoft thing is no big deal to him. From the article: "Fundamentalism always leads to pain. What's important is that Linux is free and will remain to be free," Mantel said. I believe that Hubert Mantel is highly respected as a coder and as an opensource software and GPL supporter. How can this not be good for you, me, openSUSE and any opensource/Linux/GPL developer?

[opensuse] How can I boot with wireless enabled to a WPA secured access point?
I'm running SLED10 and in YaST it appears I can only setup a WEP connection during boot. This works as when I change the security of my Access Point to WEP, enter the details in YaST for my wireless card and reboot, sure enough I get the nice 'blinky-blinky' wireless light before I'm presented with a login prompt. Problem is I don't want to use WEP, I want to use WPA on my access point but I can't see how to set it up in YaST for boot. NetworkManager is fine and kicks in my wireless nic after I login, using credentials stored in my keyring, but I want to authenticate against a server at login, not after..

They simply do not offer that service, and the talk persons do not even know what it is (not really technicians). I simply can't imagine that a company with a/several static ip(s) and good bandwidth will not get a correct reverse dns if they insist on getting one. If that is the case and there is an alternative available the customer WILL change. I suppose so. A big customer can get almost anything. Yep, money makes almost anything possible. They definitely won't offer that service to small fry. I asked my current provider (of my private internet connection) if I could get a static ip for additional pay and they told me it is impossible. On the other hand they simply don't have business customers. So it's logical that they won't set up static ips and reverse dns. No, my provider does give static IPs if you ask for it, on adsl (or whatever). It is used by small businesses, and also people needing it to work from home because their company has set their firewall to admit connections from certain IPs only, and things like that. Well, I wouldn't call it a static ip if these ips are in the same address space as the dial up addresses. (^-^) I know that making rDNS is almost impossible because I have a friend with a Fidonet node and small mail server, and he doesn't have reverse dns working. He once was a very small provider himself, with a partnership, and he commented that he couldn't get it. Other people in the Spanish list also commented they couldn't get it, and from several providers. Its quite common around here, and unbeliveable for people like you ;-) Here in Germany you can have your choice among a variety of providers, so it's always possible to get a clean static ip if you are willing to pay for it. When asking for the r-name for my current IP (W.X.Y.Z), I get something like this: Z.Red-W-X-Y-.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net. My server would block you, because that IP is listed as dynamic. I know, I know. I meant the idea, not that particular IP range. Suppose mine had the word "static". Just assume that it would not be rejected, every thing else being correct. I'm just curious about getting a matching rDNS name that way. For my provider, static IPs are named as "Z.Red-W-X-Y-.staticIP.rima-tde.net.". Doesn't really matter that much, because I (and I assume a lot of other mailadmins) use checks like if (hostname contains (number and "-" or ".") at least three times) then treat as probably dynamic and hit with your favorite choice of checks like: reject_unknown_sender_domain reject_rbl_client bl.spamcop.net reject_rbl_client dynalist.njabl.org greylisting reject_unverified_sender Because I did indeed get some desired mails from that address space I can't block rima-tde.net hard. It has millions of users, both home and businesses, both dynamic and static ;-) As far as mailservers are concerned only the static server ips are important. And if they don't have a matching reverse dns they obviously can't be that important... (^-°) So, suppose I had a domain name, but instead of pointing it to my static address (if I had one), could I point it to the given reverse name instead? I don't know how that is called in DNS parlance, but I suppose you get the idea. The rDNS on the "real" name would work, as my real name would not be the one I choosed, but the one my ISP gave me... :-? This wouldn't change your IP, and many checks apply ip based blacklists. I know, it's a theoretical idea, assuming an static IP, and not blacklisted. In most cases it won't matter. I only had one case in about a year of productive use, where a mailserver refused to accept mail from my server because the helo name and the dns name did not match (at that time). I have a server on a dynamic ip, so I know very well that the situation might be manageable if you are using the server to learn and only for your own private purposes, that that will fail if more users are depending on the server and they can't react and set a route for a domain that does not take the mail directly. In the end the only solution is to use the relayhost of your provider with all the restrictions that apply to that solution. Certainly, certainly, but I'm not receiving mail directly, and I don't have users. If you don't receive mail directly then you could probably better own a virtual server at a serious hosting company for about 10 Euro per month. Then use that server as relay server and mx for your domain. your internal server would only talk to the relay server. That would be the most cost effective way to get a static ip with almost full control of the server (many virtual servers are configured in such a way that they can't use local
