exim reject_recipients
Hi, I'm trying to block some well known domains here in Brazil regarded as used only by spammers, using the host_reject_recipients directive in exim. I've set it to a list of domains (host list form), but I got some problems: 1. I've to put my local net in the list with a ! prepended so that my users can send email, even though the local net is listed in relay_domains 2. Even disabling host_lookup, all hosts that do not have a reverse domain registered are being blocked. So, how to block well known spammer domains, without blocking others IP that do not contain reverse addresses registered.

exim host_lookup feature
Hi, I'm trying to understand the above feature on exim config. Is it supposed to block unqualified senders, e.g., people using ppp connection w/o reverse dns? If it's not, is there such option?

how to shutdown ghost tcp conections

hard lock!
Hi, Yesterday I did an apt-get -u dselect-upgrade using woody in sources.list. Now I'm having some hard lock, where my keyboard and mouse stop answering; fortunately I was able to ssh into my machine and kill several processes. This happened twice when I was visiting BXBoards site; I also had 3 other Netscape window open so I'm not sure who, if any, is the culprit site. I also tried with konqueror and it crashed in the same way, that is, hard lock! Is somebody experiencing such locks? I'm using woody since the install, 2.4.5 kernel, Nvidia card (Riva TNT2 Ultra 32MB), X 4.x with Nvidia drivers (nvidia-glx, nvidia-kernel). Thanks for any info!

Hi, Maybe you've received better suggestion, but any way I'll offer my $0.02. When you recompiled libc, where the compiler looks for the kernel's header?

modconf w/ 2.4 kernel
Hi, I've installed 2.4.0-test11, upgrading all necessary programs, mainly util-linux, modutils and e2fsprogs (apt-get -b source (woody)). After rebooting to load the new kernel, my modules didn't get loaded properly. In fact, even modprobe didn't work. I had to use insmod with each module, guessing the dependencies from the error msgs. Then I upgrade modconf to reconfigure the modules; it fails to detect my modules giving lots of error and then a empty list of available modules. Any hint on how to correct this?

help with kde2, kdm and kwm
Hi, I'm having troubles to use kwm. I've installed kde2 packages from tdyc (Ivan's packages). All dependencies are resolved but I'm not able to start kwm either from kdm (it's not listed) or from .xinitrc, using startkde. The individual programs, like kword, kpresenter, killustrator, and even kde control center works fine. Any help would be highly appreciated!

kde2 window manager
Hi, I've installed kde2 packages for potato (before Qt went GPL). Almost everything is working fine, except I'm not being able to start kwm either from kdm or from console (using startkde). Also, looking at /etc/X11 I found I don't have a window-manager file anymore (just a window-manager~). Where should I put a line to teach kdm I also have kwm installed, so that it lists kwm in the window manager poplist option? Thanks! PS.: I've found the kde.tdyc.com kde2/potato dir is being emptied. Will I be able to found potato kde2 packages in the future or I'll have to switch to woody in order to have kde2? Thanks again!

parted and cfdisk
Hi, I've tried to use parted to resize my /usr partition. Yes, I know this is dangerous but I decided to try. Well, it seems that parted did a good job! At least I can boot my computer again with no data loss yet! But, even with parted and cfdisk reporting the new partition size, a mount (or df) command only shows the old size. Look bellow: - (parted) print Disk geometry: 1-788, 8032k cylinders MinorStartEnd TypeFilesystem Flags 1197 primary ext2 boot 298 398 primary ext2 ... (parted) --- cfdisk reports --- NameFlags Part Type FS Type [Label] Size (MB) -- hda1 BootPrimary Linux ext2 797.86 hda2 Primary Linux ext2 2475.81 -- paracleto:~# df Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda1 766848356756371136 49% / /dev/hda2 1438920 1265396100432 93% /usr What's going on here? How can I make the kernel (mount/df) recognize the new partition size? I did e2fsck -f /dev/hda2 (unmounted) with no help! Thanks for any info!

I'm grabbing the sources to recompile php3 with libpq from postgresql 7.0.2. Thanks.
