Re: [expert] Directive Help in Apache
Okay, this is getting a bit confusing (could be my simple mind). You want a index.html to open when *only* your domain name is put into the url, right? For Mandrake, put this in your commonhttpd.conf file: DirectoryIndex index.php index.html index.htm index.shtml (and any other file type that might suit your fancy) As for as loading a mod called "mod_log.c", uncomment the line in httpd.conf that pertain to loading this module.

Hi Mark Chou, I meant just just edit the /etc/sysconfig/harddisks and set USE_DMA=1 MULTIPLE_IO=16 EIDE_32BIT=3 LOOKAHEAD=1 later using the command "hdparm -Tt /dev/hda", On looking at "Timing buffered disk reads:" I was looking at between 39 MB/sec to 41 MB/sec, I was very please with the result.. For a board that costs in Australia between AUD$125 - AUD$150, that makes a very inexpensive computer to run Mandrake Linux, and to have all the 3D games running like TUXRacer, Quake 3, with excellent performance was a huge plus. As far as it's sound support goes, it was quite good (Sounds O.K. to me, and the sound in games is excellent), about DD encoding I really don't know much about that. What does that do? is there any Sound card that supports that for Linux as yet? Sounds interesting..

RE: [expert] linux on nvidia nforce
Hi Mark, re: Dolby Digital support on nForce boards. I have an Abit NV7-133R board. The Nvidia audio driver (nvaudio) is apparently the i810 sound driver reworked to work with the chipset's APU. So no DD support. Under Windows I think they license code from Sensaura for the multi channel encoding. It would fantastic to get DD on Linux somehow. The audio capabilities were a big part of why I decided on an nForce board. cheers, ::mark > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On > Behalf Of Mark Chou > Sent: Friday, December 06, 2002 11:53 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [expert] linux on nvidia nforce > > > > Mark (Williamson), thanks for the pointers.

Re: [expert] FW: professional server setup...
Dual processor is the way to go on any machine where reliability is tantamount! As was pointed out in Brent's message, any run-away process will not take down the server if it is dual processor. For web server /mail server, you may want to think about clustering several machines. Also, if you can, try to transition the change over to the new machines. That way you can concentrate on each function (web server, mail server, etc.) and make sure it is right before moving onto the next chunk of your project. Also, take volumious notes; when you make changes to the configuration, comment out the old lines and add the new ones below - that way if you run into unexpected problems, you can adjust the config files easier; print out the config files and keep them in a master notebook for the project, in case of something unexpected cropping up.

My GnuPG cannot validate your public key because it only asks the common keyserver. Why is your public key not known to [EMAIL PROTECTED]? I mean, there is no sense to sign a public mail in a mailing list when nobody can verify the signature because the key is not available on a public keyserver.

[expert] GPG encrypted disk image
Hello everyone I've been looking arround for a way to use a PGP(/GPG) encrypted disk image on Linux. PGPdisk seems to provide it for windows (although the fact that the underlying OS is insecure neutralises the security). What I have in mind is a disk image with a filesystem on it that provides on the fly encryption with gnupg. That part is easy, but it should be mounted without decrypting it to disk first (avoiding a vulnerable copy that can be recovered). let's say that I have an image called /home/gvs/safe.imgpg. It should be mounted with something like 'mount -t gpg_img /home/gvs/safe.imgpg /home/gvs/safe, where you put your passphrase in. The trick is that the image should never be fully decrypted, if the system is powered off without unmounting, the image should remain encrypted. Using OpenPGP for the encryption has the advantage over other encrypted filesystems that you need both the private key and the passphrase to decrypt it, which makes it safe to transport it over insecure channels (like ftp). Maybe some option can be added, setting a timeout for the passphrase (next access needs it to be re-entered). Has anyone ever heard of something like this? Or any ideas how exactly this can be pieced together with existing programs?

[expert] Postfix overrides not working....
I'm using header_checks and body_checks to help do some spam filtering. I
want to have it listen on another port than 25 as well, for unfiltered
processing (when I get spam via a POP3 fetch from another account, it's
hard to report said spam when your mail server filters and rejects it :).
In /etc/postfix/master.cf, I've set the following lines:
{xx} inetn - y - - smtpd
-o content_filter=
-o header_checks=
-o body_checks=
-o myhostname={different hostname for testing}
-o smtpd_client_restrictions=permit_mynetworks,reject
-o smtpd_helo_restrictions=
-o smtpd_sender_restrictions=
-o smtpd_recipient_restrictions=permit_mynetworks,reject
Where {xx} is the port number I'm telling it to listen on (and it's behind
a firewall, so unless you're on the local network, you can't get to that
port). When I connect to that alternate port, I get my SMTP greeting and
can send mail. The problem is that it's still filtering based on the
header_checks, etc., that's setup in my main.cf file. For some reason, the
overrides don't seem to be taking, other than for myhostname (at least, the
SMTP greeting banner shows the test hostname I've put in there for
debugging purposes).
Anyone have any ideas why this isn't working?

When I remember correctly you only have to install the concerned myspell (like de_DE for german/Germany). In OO you have to marke in Options/Language/writing aids (or wordbook?) the correct language (doe not forget to mark myspell). In /usr/lib/openoffice/share/wordbook/german(or your main language) you find the file 'dictionary.lst' which you can edit as desired. I hope this will help, I had no problems. W.

What are some of the gotchas? I have installed a number of Mandrake Linuxs on nVidia nForce 1 motherboards, I guess my experiences will be similar.. the nForce chip mother boards that were used were the ASUS A7N266-VM with built in LAN, and audio cards. Once Mandrake 9.0 and the nVidia's proprietary drivers were installed, the performance of the motherboard, LAN and graphics card was excellent... On the installation of the Mandrake Linux just install as like any other PC, till the part were LILO is to be configured, and make sure that the "mem=" gets added to the append line in the lilo config that is "mem=(The amount of RAM less how much the Video card uses)" or the system will cash on the first bootup.. This is fairly easy to do in Mandrake's GUI setup..Once the Mandrake is installed and running, the LAN and sound card will not be working till the the nForce drivers are installed, the driver is rather small and is easy to obtain off the Nvidia site http://www.nvidia.com.. just grab the RPM that is made for Mandrake9 use the command "rpm -ivh" to install the driver.. once done the sound card and the LAN card will work.. If you like to have good OpenGL support in your Xwindows then download Kernel Nvidia GeForce Driver Source RPM and built the RPM using the "rpm --rebuild" command, as well as the GLX driver.. once built just install them with the "rpm -ivh" command, and configure the Xwindows like one would do for any Geforce card. Just a side note, install "hdparm" and edit the file /etc/sysconfig/harddisks and uncomment all the lines to switch on DMA access for the hard drive, it does work well with this switched on.

PPTP uses tcp port 1723, so you need to allow that through the firewall. Also you _may_ need to allow GRE through the firewall as well. This is true for the firewall we use at work; it may be the same for SNF. Chris Slater-Walkr Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
