RE: MailScanner with Sendmail
Thanks alot I now have MailScanner scanning all my messages :). How ever I have one minor(?) problem, sendmail movers messages to the mqueue.in , MailScanner scans them and moves them to the /mqueue like it should,... but the messages just sit there. Do I now need to change procmail? -Original Message- From: Matt Collier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 07, 2004 5:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: MailScanner with Sendmail On Tuesday 07 December 2004 00:23, Penbrock wrote: > I am a newbie trying to learn our office servers so I have put a system up > at home just like the ones our office uses for the ISP servers.

MailScanner with Sendmail
I am a newbie trying to learn our office servers so I have put a system up at home just like the ones our office uses for the ISP servers. I am trying to play around to find better ways to work things and I have come across MailScanner. I think I have it all installed on my testing system how ever I can not find any Doc's on how to tell Sendmail to start calling MailScanner. Can anyone help me out here or direct me to some doc's on using it on a Debian server with Sendmail? Thanks for any direction you can give this old MS user trying to learn Linux Ken smime.p7s Description: S/MIME cryptographic signature
RE: New Debian net install on a SATA server?
That did it alright. As soon as I turned off the hardware RAID it worked fine. I'll just do it with software. It did come with Window$ drivers so I assume it will not have drivers for Linux but I will do some checking into software RAIDs. For backups is RAID the best way to go? For this server it is more important to be able to restore the data then to have the system back up and running in seconds. I hear allot of people saying to just make the second drive an image of the first and then run an hourly cron job to copy the /home/ directories? -Original Message- From: Gregory Wood [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, August 22, 2004 9:49 PM To: 'Debian-ISP' Subject: RE: New Debian net install on a SATA server? I've installed a few boards with SATA. If you have turned on RAID, turn it off. RAID changes the driver from IDE to SCSI -- and it requires a special driver. That driver will not be part of the Linux set.

Nobody is going to be able to help you without more information. Linux is hardware specific. Everything depends on the hardware you choose. I always attempt to choose hardware that works, so I don't have surprises. According to the link you provided, the Ethernet is an integrated gigabit controller. The Serial ATA controller is not listed. Sounds like you like surprises. :) On 19/08/04 21:08 -0500, Penbrock wrote: > I can sure use someones help.

New Debian net install on a SATA server?
I can sure use someones help. Being newer to Linux when the boss got a new server I was sure I would have no problems installing Debian from a new sarge-i386 net install image. Well here is the problem, the server uses 2 80 gig S-ATA drives and even the net image that states it can use S-ATA does not see the drive(s) at all. Can anyone help me at all on getting Debian installed. I need that to be an FTP and web server with raided drives if that makes any difference. Thanks for any help, Ken Hardware: Systemax RAID tower from Tigerdirect (http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=987498&Sku=SYXS-ST-532096) ** Micro-star International motherboard 865PE Neo2_fIS2R ( http://www.msicomputer.com/product/p_spec.asp?model=865PE_Neo2-FIS2R ) Intel Pen4HT 2.8Ghz Processor two 521MB PC3200 RAM Two 80 GB Serial ATA 7200RPM Hard Drives ATI Radeon 7000 AGP video card (Nop desktop will be installed)
Using Debian as a HotSpot??
My company had installed a few Toshiba HotSpot routers. They are set up to ask for a code number or a credit card to allow access for 1,2 or 24 hours of Internet access. Everything was working fine until Toshiba told us they are dropping the service. Does anyone know of this type of HotSpot service running on a Debian? I need to find a replacement for the Toshiba very fast and I do not know Linux well enough to try to write something like this myself. In the best of all worlds we would love to have a gateway/router on the customers site that when access is requested to would call to our server, check the access code and if good it would open the Internet to the user. Also if they have just a one hour code it would need to close the service to them when the time is up. If anyone can help it would be great, I would love to try a program that is already written and working in the real world as this customer is pissed already at loosing what they have. Thanks for any help Ken
