Dear Linux users, How do you configure a host that has to send mail through a mail gateway ? Where and how do you specify this gateway ? Thanks. Ph. BARBELET -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
RE: Linux system Instalation - CRC Error
I think you have to build your rescue floppy again . RAWRITE2.EXE doesn't work as well each time. Try an other rescue floppy and be sure that your floppy disk was first dos clean formatted before you use it.

IIRC, the kernel boot paramaters only work if the driver is compiled into the kernel. If you are compiling it as a module (eg default Debian setup) you need to edit /etc/conf.modules and add a line like: ``options 3c509 io=0xAAA,0xBBB irq=CC,DD'' where 0xAAA and CC are for eth0, and 0xBBB and DD are for eth1. Note that I'm not certain about the specific parameters, you might want to read the driver source if it dosen't work- alternatively, you could just recompile your kernel with the 3c509 driver in the kernel instead of a module. -- __ | ian eure, network admin, freelance security consultant, and | | manically depressed paranoid schizophrenic, at your service. | ; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - http://minion.org ; : raw speed = 105.6 wpm with 4.5% errors : . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

RE: Date-stamp in filename for a script
You can do some shell like that :
phil.sh
===
#! /bin/sh
prefix=$1
suffix=$2
buffer=`date +%y%m%d'
file=${prefix}${buffer}${suffix}
cat > $file
=
and use it like that :
ls | phil.sh backup .tar.gz

Excuse my ignorance in shell scripting, but I wanted to create a file
that
actualy had a filename that contains the date in the format:
backupYYMMDD.tar.gz
I can do:
date +backup%y%m%d.tar.gz
which give the correct output for the filename. If I assign that to an
environment
variable such as TIMESTAMP:
TIMESTAMP='date +backup%y%m%d.tar.gz'
How can I use this as:
touch $TIMESTAMP
...or...
tar czvf $TIMESTAMP /
ect... I have seveal uses for this concept, and I know you guru
scripters do
this
in your sleep. any help?

Re: /etc/init.d/boot message?
Please, don't do this because if you have a wrong boot sequence (or a problem in it) you won't see it and can be stopped whith no way to resolve your problem. Use the command "dmesg | more" to see you boot sequence after booting or go in the /var/adm directory. There, you'll find the "messages" file which receive most of the system messages. You'll find several log files also that you can edit.
