[expert] Openoffice-MySQL
hi..! i've been looking for the moment to start learing a bit of SQL and since i got that PDF explaining how to use OpenOffice as a gui for it, i decided that moment would be now.. however i'm having trouble making things work the way that howto says it should. i¡ve edited /etc/odbc.ini and /etc/odbcinst.ini so they both look just like the example this document, however the ODBC driver ( i guess that's where the problem is ) can't find the server ( or database? or data source? ) i've searched on google using the error i'm getting as the search query but i didn't find any useful data ( a lot of it was for MS-SQL or was simply referred to other problems, as it looks like it a very common 'newb' misconfiguration ) this is what i'm getting. [root@localhost user]# isql MySQL-test -v [unixODBC][Driver Manager]Data source name not found, and no default driver specified [ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLConnect my .ini files are: ( the howto refers to these two files only so it looks like it should work by tweaking only these? ) i've checked that all .so files exist and are in place, too. /etc/odbc.ini [SQL-test] Description = SQL database test Driver = MySQL Server = localhost Database= test Port= 3306 Socket = Option = Stmt= /etc/odbcinst.ini [MySQL] Description = ODBC Driver for MySQL Driver = /usr/lib/libmyodbc.so Setup = /usr/lib/libodbcmyS.so FileUsage = 1 CPTimeout = CPReuse = thanks for any ideas that you may have.

[expert] problem with proftpd
Hello I have set up a new server for my small business. I just have 1 problem w/ proftpd (default config from install) When browsing the directory with MSIE 6 I see the files with strange names which are in fact size, creation date and name of the actual file ? This is broken somewhere (and of course trying to do someting with this name doesn't lead anywhere)... Any idea of how to correct it ? TIA Bruno Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Damian I am using the pdf protocol for link Openoffice-ODBC-MySQL and is runing fine under Mandrake 8.2! Did you remember to instal the libmysqlclient? And did you do: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib? Just a comment, I have the OpenOffice installed from the original OOo files, I have noticed that the mandrake rpm install some files in different location of the original ones; perhaps this could be another problem and the export command could be different. I hope this will help you Francisco Alcaraz Murcia (Spain) Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Should have found that by myself before writing to the list! I originally ran into this problem after a full install of 8.2 as well. I tried and tried to get gcc 3.0 to work after doing a ln -s /usr/bin/cpp /usr/bin/cpp0 which went a little ways to making it usable. I also had what turned out to be a partial gcc-2.96 install (don't know why). Ultimately, and here comes my puzzled question, I removed gcc-3.0 entireley and installed everything for gcc-2.96 I could find, but try as I might I could not find gcc-cpp. FINALLY I did find it after doing a CD-by-CD search...it was on my Mandrake 8.2 Commercial CD 1 (?!) along with gcc-objc. So, why are these two RPMs on the Commercial CD instead of install disk 1 or 2 at best, or the Supplemental CD at the very least? I was THIS close to giving up and downloading from the net thinking that I had a mispackaged box set lacking two critical rpms until I did the tedious task of manually searching each and every CD I had. The Commercial CD 1 ? I really don't understand that one. praedor Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

[expert] Problems with NIS...
Hello all, I have an Mandrake 8.2 Nis server on my network, and two mandrake 8.2 clients, users log on the clients using nis database fine, but there is some strange things. The java isn't working on the mozilla clients, but work fine on the server, and i used the same installation on both server and clients. The ls command is not in colors on the clients, but if i log on the server it is. I think this is some problem with .bashrc or .profile on the user directory. My server /home is exported to the clients, so the clients should have the same options in .bashrc and .profile. Another doubt is that i want some users to be able to log on only on some machines, how can i do that?? I had try to put a line like: -:: +myuser::/bin/bash on the end off the /etc/passwd on each client to allow only myuser user to have access to this machine but this doesn't work. On my server none user have a valid shell, but every user of the server can access the clients anyway. Is it supposed to be like this?? What am i doing wrong here???
