[Cooker] Sendmail Virtual Domains are broken in Cooker

2002-06-12 Thread Joseph T Watson

Hello,

I have been using sendmail with linuxconf virtual mail accounts since MDK 
7.1 and with little trouble until MDK 8.2 came out.  With 8.2 and cooker, 
sendmail will not recognize virtual domains as a domain to be delivered 
locally, and it gives you the "mail loops back to me" error.  I am 
configuring it with Linuxconf and it always just worked.  After much messing 
around, I downloaded the src rpm for sendmail from 8.1 and recompiled it on 
my 8.2 install, and that fixed it.

I an not sure what the problem is, but something changed between 
sendmail-8.11.6-3mdk and sendmail-8.12.1-4mdk that broke virtual domains with 
linuxconf as a configuration tool.

One thing that I noticed is that linuxconf expected there to be a 
/usr/bin/makemap, and there is only a /usr/sbin/makemap.  In 
sendmail-8.11.6-3mdk there is both /usr/bin/makemap and /usr/sbin/makemap.  I 
tried copying /usr/sbin/makemap to /usr/bin/makemap, but it did not work.  
Maybe someone can figure this out.

Thanks much for the Great product.  If I can be of any help, let me know.

[Cooker] Postfix

2002-04-08 Thread Joseph T Watson

Hello

I am not sure if this is the right list to ask this, but I have run into a 
dead-end looking for info on this.  So if someone knows where I can find 
documation regarding this, please point me there.

I would like to try out postfix, but I need to use virtual domains, and I 
need a nice GUI to add users, domains, and so on.  The reason is that my 
costomer is not a linux user, and would be lost if he had to use manual 
stuff.  So can postfix deliver to Linuxconf virtual domains??

Any help would be great

[Cooker] Sendmail

2002-04-08 Thread Joseph T Watson

Hello,

I am trying to use sendmail with linuxconf virtual users in MDK 8.2, but it 
seems to be completely broken.  Sendmail will relay messages, and deliver to 
the default domain, but will not deliver to a virtual domain.  I can't figure 
out where the problem lies.  I know that I am setting it up wright because I 
have sendmail with linuxconf virtual domains running on a 7.0, 7.2, two 
8.1's, and now I am trying a 8.2 distribution and suddenly it stops working.  
Here is a rundown of what I can see.  

Like I stated above, I can make it relay, and deliver to the default domain.  
But I can not make a virtual domain work.  If I add the virtual domain to 
/etc/mail/local-host-names, then it will deliver the virtual domain mail to 
the default domain mail boxes.  I also see that sendmail was looking for 
makemap under /usr/bin/makemap, but it is under /usr/sbin/makemap.  I fixed 
this but it did not help.  

I don't know if this is a sendmail problem or a linuxconf problem??  

I don't know if this is a MDK package problem or is it in linuxconf or 
sendmail??

Maybe I should be asking another list??

Any help would be great.

[Cooker] Control Center in Beta 4

2002-03-06 Thread Joseph T Watson

Hello

I just installed the beta 4 release and the install went very smoolth, just 
like I would expect from a Mandrake Product.  

One little glitch that I found was in the Control Center.  When I click on 
the Add/Remove Software to bring up RpmDrake, the hole interface goes bye-bye 
and I don't get Rpmdrake.  So I just start it from the KMenu and all works as 
expected.  So it appears there is a small glitch in MDK Control Center.


Great job everyone.

Hello

I have noticed a process soaking up a lot of proccessor time, and am
trying to figure out what it is??  Does anyone know what kapm-idled is
and why it uses so much of the processor?  Do I have something

it is using way more then its share of the processor, the bottom listing
is after the computer was running and being used for about 3 hours.

Well, all I need to do is fire up Mandrake Control Center and under Boot -
Boot Config, uncheck the "Launch Aurora at boot time" option, and it goes
away!!!  Seems kind of optional to me!





[Cooker] DrakeRPM HELP!!!

2001-05-26 Thread Joseph T Watson

Hello

I have had a problem with DrakeRPM for last 2 releases of mandrake
now.  The problem is with adding rpm sources!  I can remove a source no
problem, but I cant add one  When I try to add a new soruce, all
seems to work but then when I reopen the "Define Sources" dialog, the
newly added source is not there anymore?  Also the list of rpms does not
contain any new rpms.  The only work around I find for this is to use
the comand line for urpmi, and add sources that way.   Am I doing
something wrong, or is drake rpm broken?

Thanks,

Joseph

Hello,

Just a though, I have had problems with installing, and the problems
were about the same, but I was not able to finnish the install.  What I
found out is I had two drives on the same cable, and one was UDMA 66 and
the other was 33.  For some reason this causes problems with the install,
but not with operation once I managed to get in installed??   I
removed the second drive and all installed well, then I adjusted the
partions around after the install.

Hope this helps!!





[Cooker] KDE 2.0

2000-12-11 Thread Joseph T Watson

Hello

I am looking for some answers to a few questions of mine.  I want to
upgrade to KDE 2.0.1 from 2.0 but don't want to try source code.  I see
that in cooker there is kde 2.1 rpms, and am wondering what the version
numbering is meaning.  Is this kde 2.0.1?  Also is there any warnings
about installing the development set of rpms right now.  I just don't
want to mess up my system by jumping the gun and not be able to go back
to the 2.0 release easily.  I kind of depend on being able to use this
computer :)   So any insight would be welcome.  I am running Linux
Mandrake 7.2, and I must say it is a AWESOME distribution, GREAT JOB!!!

Thanks Much

Joseph

Hello

I am quite new to building rpm's, but am real intrested in learning so I
can build my own rpms or help in instances like this.  The above info is
a little over my head.  Could you point me to some reading that would
help me learn how to do the above in a little more detail?  Also what
findings would you like me to report?  Findings on DRBD-dev or the
kernel??

Thanks for the responce,  the SPEC file  is what I was looking for, 
Thanks Much!!

[Cooker] Kernel Configuration

2000-12-03 Thread Joseph T Watson

Hello

I have a question.  I want to a patch the kernal with Alans Pre
2.2.18pre18 patch (pre-patch-2.2.18-18.bz2), and Andreas VM Patch
(VM-global-2.2.18pre18-7.bz2).  This will be for use with the latest
DRBD-dev cvs tree.

My question.  I want to keep the kernel options the same as they are now
in Mandrake 7.2's 2.2.17-21mdk kernal.  When you run "make xconfig" and
exit and save, there is a /usr/src/linux/.config file created.  If this
file is not there, where does the config come from.  Is there a default,
or can it query the running kernel.  Any way, how do I load the config
for any of the mandrake kernels such as the linus, SMP, secure, pcmcia ,
etc...  Can I get the .config file some where??  Please fill me in if
you can.

Thanks

Joseph
