Re: desaparece correo(fetchmail+procmail)
On Thu, 8 Feb 2001, =?iso-8859-1?B?RmVybe1uIE1hbnphbmVkbw== ?= wrote: Hola gente, me he creado una cuenta para poder recibir en ella el correo de la lista ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), entre otras presenta la ventaja de poderse consultar mediante web o con un programa para pop3; el problema es que si me envío un mensaje a esta cuenta, lo recojo pero me desaparece y no lo puedo leer. Utilizo fetchmail para recoger el correo y procmail para repartirlo en los buzones. Cuando ejecuto fetchmail, en modo -v, no me devuelve ningún error y me recoge todo el correo. Pero procmail no pone todo el correo en su sitio porque el de esa cuenta me desaparece. Por si es problema de procmail, ahí va mi .procmailrc: No te voy a decir lo que tienes mal porque no lo se pero te cuento como lo tengo montado yo porque me va fenomenal. Lo primero que debes hacer es poner 'keep' en '.procmailrc' para que no te borre los mensajes. De esta forma mientras estés haciendo pruebas no perderas el correo. Tal como yo lo tengo todos los mensajes duplicados van a una carpeta aparte y de esta forma recibir los mismos mensajes nuevamente no va a suponerte ninguna incomodidad. Uso procmail con la opción mda. Todo lo tengo montado para que 'root' me baje todo el correo y lo reparta a cada usuario en distintas carpetas. He modificado alguna cosa. Por ejemplo a los usuarios los llamo fumano y mengano y las password las pongo como . -rw---1 root root/root/.fetchmailrc 8(cortar por aqui)- ## fetchmailrc defaults # Comun a todos los servidores mda /usr/bin/procmail -f - # Suministrar correo a ..., por defecto lo da # a localhost:25 (smail) # Si no tiene From conductor -f - lo crea fetchall# Recoger todos los mensajes leidos o no #keep # No borrar mensajes tras leerlos. (util para pruebas ojo no usar con expunge) nokeep # Borrar mensajes tras leerlos. pass8bits # Fundamental para eñes, acentos , etc.. fetchlimit 300 # No bajar mas de 300 mensajes por vez expunge 20 # Cada 20 mensajes bajados borrar y almacenar en la carpeta limit 150 # No bajar mensaje de más de 1K5Mbytes # # poll pop.servidor.es # Inicio de bloque para definir características de # cada servidor. #user usuario #pass password #to usuario_local # poll pop.servidor.es proto pop3 user mengano pass poll pop.servidor.es proto pop3 user fulano is fulano pass 8(cortar por aqui)- Para procmail tengo un filtro muy grande que contempla cada caso para cada usuario y separa en carpetas el correo. Todos los usuarios tienen una carpeta llamada 'varios' y la ultima regla de cada usuario manda el mensaje a ese usuario en caso de que no se cumpla ninguna regla de las anteriores. De esta forma un mensaje que va para un usuario no irá a un usuario distinto nunca. Los mensajes que no cumplan ninguna regla van a la carpeta 'varios' de root. Los mensajes duplicados sean de quien sean van a la carpeta varios de root, pero se pueden mandar a /dev/null. Recortando el fichero para que quede como un ejemplito sería lo siguiente: -rw-r--r--1 root root /root/.procmailrc 8(cortar por aqui)- MAILDIR=$HOME/mail DEFAULT=$MAILDIR/varios VERBOSE=yes LOGFILE=$HOME/log/procmail.log :0: * ^Subject:.*MAILSTAT.* MAILSTATFOLDER :0 Whc: msgid.lock | formail -D 32768 msgid.cache :0 a: duplicates :0 * X-Rcpt-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] { XXX=/home/fulano/mail/ :0: * (^To:|^Resent-To:|^Cc:).*fulano.* /home/fulano/mail/personal :0: * (^Sender|^From:|^Resent-From:|^To:|^Resent-To:|^Cc:)[EMAIL PROTECTED] /home/fulano/mail/debian-spain :0: * (^Sender|^From:|^Resent-From:|^To:|^Resent-To:|^Cc:)[EMAIL PROTECTED] /home/fulano/mail/l-linux :0: * .* /home/fulano/mail/varios } :0 * X-Rcpt-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] { :0: * (^To:|^Resent-To:|^Cc:).*mengano.* /home/mengano/mail/personal :0: * .* /home/mengano/mail/varios } 8(cortar por aqui)- Para bajar el correo basta hacer fetchmail desde root. Bueno es una forma de hacerlo que funciona y a mi me va muy bien aunque tampoco significa que sea la mejor forma para todo el mundo.

En segundo lugar no es lo mismo ponerse a hacer algunas pruebas que tener la referencia de lugares donde se use en producción. El volumen de los datos y la carga del sistema así como las caidas ocasionales que puedan surgir son cosas que me parecen imposible de simular. El número de caidas y el motivo de las caidas es otro dato importante. Como quedan los datos después de una caida es algo que puede variar en función de las circunstancias de cada caida. No se puede pretender probar la fiabilidad de una Base de datos por uno mismo. Con eso se pueden detectar algunas cosas. Se puede saber si es más o menos rápida, pero de la fiabilidad no creo que pueda uno hacerse demasiada idea así. En mi opinión resulta mucho más tranquilizador saber que alguna empresa importante lo lleva usando desde hace mucho tiempo sin problemas.

Intel Pro/100 y Switch HP 2324
Hola... Me ocurre una cosa bastante extraña. Tengo cuatro equipos dos con debian y dos con windows. Uno de los debian tiene una placa Intel 440GX con tarjeta de red integrada, el otro lleva dos tarjetas Intel Pro/100. Pues bueno mi problema es el siguiente: Si enchufo todos los equipos a un hub cutre que tengo todos se ven y se comunican, sin problema. Pero si los enchufo a un Switch HP 2324 (es un switch de 24 puertos no gestionable), el debian que tiene las dos tarjetas de red, desaparece no le llegan los ping's desde ningun equipo. Los demas equipos siguen conectandose entre si, incluso el otro debian con la Intel 440GX No entiendo por donde puede venir el problema, he intentado cambiar la configuracion de medio de las tarjetas de red (ponerlas a half-duplex y a 10Mbps) pero no encuentro forma de hacerlo... un ifconfig eth0 media type auto, no va... y no tengo ni idea de como hacerlo. Alguien me puede ayudar???

Hola gente, ya volvi de las vacaciones y de nuevo a mis lios con Linux... Alguien me puede decir si el fsck o algun otro programa es capaz de marcar sectores dañados en el disco para que no sean usados por el sistema ni programa nunca mas? porque el disco se me daño y tengo que arreglarmelas como pueda por ahora, en Windows los marque y no me da dramas, pero hay sectores en Linux que estan dañados tambien y necesito mover la info y marcarlos. Use el fsck -r para hacer todo a manopla pero cuando me da los errores de sectores dañados solo me pregunta si quiero ignorarlo... si le pongo que Sí, lo pasa de largo y si le pongo que No, sale del programa sin hacer nada. Hay alguna forma de hacer lo que necesito? gracias y un saludo a todos.

Re: Valor x Placa Onboard
meu recorde de conexao com o mesmo hardware eh de quase 72 horas... jah ouvi outras pessoas reclamando desse modem cair, mas o meu naum cai... anyway, uso ele com 2.4.0 quem tiver interessado tem o driver na minha pagina, seguido de tutorial... ;) (olhem minha assinatura) Ja tinha testado este driver sem sucesso. O driver nao esta muito bem feito na minha opiniao. Primeiro este problema de ter que carregar e descarregar o modulo para poder usar denovo o modem. Outro problema que tive é que ele so funcionou quando ja tinha previamente carregado o driver original do kernel para portas seriais e depois carregado este driver. Sem fazer isto, o driver se comporta anormalmente e acabo tendo um kernel panic. Nos logs do sistema aparece que ele tentou chamar uma funcao do driver de cdrom. -- Alexandre Pereira da Silva http://aletes.net ICQ#: 22163948 Tel: (11) 93830810

Re: Configuação da placa AGP SiS 6326
Oi Pedro! Agradeço a dica, porém não tive muito sucesso, venho tendo bronca até para rodar o XF86Setup, pois quando tento executar aparece uma tela cinza que fica variando de tamanho e não me deixa ver nenhuma opção dde configuração do X, e além deste num consigo também rodar o xserver-configure. Sabes o que pode ser? Pois num entendo, com outras distribuições nunca tive este problema. Aproveito p/ informar que minha placa de vídeo é SiS 6326 AGP de 8M, não on-board. At 10:03 08/02/01 -0200, you wrote: Oi, Marcelo! Esta dica vale a principio para qualquer placa de video. Antes de tudo, verifique se sua placa de video é suportada pelo Debian. Para a versão 2.2 - potato, voce pode encontrar a lista de placas suportadas em: http://www.xfree86.org/cardlist.html Veja neste endereço qual o xserver que a tua placa precisa (XF86_SVGA = xserver-svga) Agora vamos a instalação... Primeiro, aconselho voce a verificar se estão instalados os pacotes 'xserver-common', 'xserver-vga16' e 'xf86setup'. Se eles não tiverem instalados, então instale-os. Instale também o 'xserver-??' que está indicado no endereço acima para a sua placa. Entre como 'root' e execute 'SuperProbe'. Este programa tenta identificar a sua placa de video, mostrando modelo, memoria, etc. Em algumas placas especificas, que não suportam uma autodetecção, o micro pode travar e ser necessário um reset. Anote os dados que o programa forneceu em um papel. Configure sua placa pelo 'XF86Setup', que é mais fácil de utilizar que o xf86config. 1-primeira tentativa Coinfigura as seções 'Mouse' 'Keyboard' e 'Monitor' de acordo com o seu hardware. Vale dizer que se voce está com duvida na escolha do teclado, tente ver: http://igbt.sel.eesc.sc.usp.br/pipermail/nsl-usp/2000-December/000470.html Na seção 'Card', escolha o modelo da placa diretamente na lista de placas que aparecerem. Na seção 'Modeselection', escolha os modos que voce quer. Para um monitor 14/15, placas com 2MB de memoria ou mais, fica como sugestão a escolha de 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768 e 16bpp. Depois de configurar tudo, clique no 'Done' e teste se funcionou. 2-outra tentativa - caso a primeira não funcione. Agora, na seção 'Card', clique em 'Detailed Setup', escolha o chipset da tua placa na seção 'Chipset'. em 'RamDAC' e em 'Clockchip' escolha probed em 'Selected options', escolha 'noaccel' e tambem 'no_program_clocks' se disponivel. em video ram, escolha '512K'. na seção 'Modeselection', escolha apenas 640x480 e 8bpp agora teste se a configuração funcionou Se a configuração 2 funcionou, mas a 1 não funcionou, então o X está tentandu usar algum recurso que alguns modelos de placa com o mesmo chipset tem, mas a tua placa não tem. Tente uma terceira vez colocando o 'Modeselection' do jeito que voce quer e a memoria de video no tamanho correto. A partir daí, é descobrir o que tua placa não tem e colocar no 'Selected options' tente alternar/combinar os seguintes: 'no_program_clocks' 'nolinear' 'linear' 'noaccel'. Espero que isso resolva o problema da placa. Um abraço e boa sorte :-) Pedro - Em todo caso, acho que o Tupã (está cadastrado nesta lista) tem uma placa destas no micro dele e poderia enviar as opções pra você. Tupã, se você tiver esta placa então envie as opções.

Re: Keyboard (how to ping others)
Okay, you have to look at a file named something like hosts in the directory etc. /etc/hosts See if it is there. That file then needs to define all of the other systems along with names. So first, you need a local only IP address for your network. This should be 192.168.x.y , where x can be any number from 1 to 255, and y should be the computer's individual ID number (1-255). So my network's *MASK* is 255.255.255.0, and my network's address is 192.168.1.0 (the '0' computer address is a broadcast address for the network.) You then need to go around to each computer in the network, and set up a TCP/IP protocol, and assign an IP address with a different unique number 'X' for each. Usually, the server will have x=1, then other computers can have x=2, x=3, etc. As you go, write down each computer in the list, and also assign each computer a name. Names should not be confusable with people's names, nor should they be confusable with project names or even the actual computer's name (no 'IBM' 'DELL3', etc.) One good set of names is trees, for example. OAK,ELM,WILLOW, etc. Or cars TEMPO,CIVIC, F100, etc. So you write all these down on a sheet of paper. You can add any other aliases you want, though. Now edit at that hosts file, and add some entries to it. Each line should contain the IP address of the computer, it's name ('Elm'), and then any aliases you want. Now also come up with a name for your network (I have netname below, but it could be trees instead. I'm not sure, but it could need to be the name of the workgroup.) 127.0.0.1 localhost 192.168.1.1 elm.netnamealiaselm 192.168.1.2 oak.netnamealiasoak1 aliasoak2 192.168.1.3 birch.netname aliasbirch and so on. Once you have this set up, now you can go ahead and ping oak.netname and it should work.

How to set DPI when running KDM?
Hi folks, I just went through my monthly apt-get update apt-get dist-upgrade for woody, and noticed that X now is running with -dpi 100 when started with startx. This is great, finally I have a consistent font resolution. The only problem is that I'm running KDM, which will still run my X server with -dpi 75. I have been looking into the files in /etc/X11/kdm, but couldn't find a place to specify the different resolution. Any ideas?

somewhat OT: Long Range Wireless LAN under linux
This is a little off topic because it's more of a hardware question than a software question. Is there a system available that would let me have wireless connectivity with a range of at least 1500 feet. There is one building in the way, but it is otherwise open. I could even put the base antenna outside on the 5th floor of my building. The mobile system will be in a tent (circus tent, to be specific) most of the time. The best I've been able to find offer about 1000 feet. Of course these are all at least 10Mbps. For my application, I'd be happy with 56k. The base system will most likely be running linux. The laptop will be running whatever it takes to get the system operational. (I'll be using VNC, so the OS of the laptop isn't that important. Thanks Peter

Keyboard
Hello! I installed Debian 2.2 on 486. After reboot the keyboard started to act strangelly - When you tiped one a it wrote aa, multiple letters, sometimes it didn't write even a letter. At the end it stopped working. At start I can push Del buton to get into BIOS, but ones that Linux loades, the keyboard is death. So, how to deal with this problem? At startup Linux says: AT Keyboard not connected or AT no Keyboard or something like this. On Debian is only Base System from 11 floppyes installed. Tahat is maybe also because I might defined devices that are not installed(hardware), so there was written that in that case linux might not respond. How to delite modules? There are some modules for PCMCIA, and on startups it shows that that device wasn't find. There is another problem too: I can ping localhost and IP of this computer that I defined in /etc/network/interfaces, but I can't ping other computers on the net. What am I doing wrong? Thank you!

I don't run kdm, but look in /etc/kdm (??) for a file with a line like: /usr/bin/X11/X -dpi 100 vt7 and make sure it has that -dpi 100 argument. I have similar but different problems between a lap top and my workstation. The fonts after the kde session starts is fine - but on the lap top the kdm logon box fills most of the screen, the workstation is is of a reasonable size. the file you refer to with the line like the above in is /etc/X11/kdm/Xservers but there is also a file /etc/X11/kdm/Xresources which has a some degree of influence here.

Here's the rule chain: keittlab:~# ipchains -L -v Chain input (policy REJECT: 745901 packets, 315942760 bytes): pkts bytes target prot opttosa tosx ifname mark outsize sourcedestination ports 65 5952 ACCEPT icmp -- 0xFF 0x00 any anywhere anywhere any - any 6529 326K ACCEPT all -- 0xFF 0x00 lo anywhere anywhere n/a 3774 377K ACCEPT all -- 0xFF 0x00 eth1 anywhere anywhere n/a 15118 1209K public all -- 0xFF 0x00 eth0 anywhere anywhere n/a Chain forward (policy REJECT: 0 packets, 0 bytes): Chain output (policy ACCEPT: 628482 packets, 317229217 bytes): Chain public (1 references): pkts bytes target prot opttosa tosx ifname mark outsize sourcedestination ports 1696 131K ACCEPT tcp -- 0xFF 0x00 any anywhere keittlab.bio.sunysb.edu any - ssh 0 0 ACCEPT udp -- 0xFF 0x00 any anywhere keittlab.bio.sunysb.edu any - ssh 32 6934 ACCEPT tcp -- 0xFF 0x00 any anywhere keittlab.bio.sunysb.edu any - www Perhaps this is because I'm matching on interfaces and not net addresses?

Corel WP 2000 and X4.02/testing
Hi gang, I have wp2000 installed on my system, which I recently updated to testing, including X4.02. I haven't used wp2000 since I updated, but when I went to do it today, it didn't work. I got an error about the font server not running, which I presume is the fontastic font server, which wp2000 uses. The process is running (fontfs), and netstat --listen shows something listening on port 7102. Looking back at my old X3.x XF86Config file, there is no entry for it in the font list, so I presume that it works that out itself. Is anyone running wp2000 under X4+? If so, did you have to do anything special to get it running? cheers, damon -- Damon Muller | Did a large procession wave their torches Criminologist/Linux Geek | As my head fell in the basket, http://killfilter.com | And was everybody dancing on the casket...
