[expert] xdm
I've got a strange problem with xdm : I want to change the default text of xdm : X system login So I change Xressources. If I install everything of my Festen (1.0 Gb), there is no problem. But if I just check what I need : X + wine, xdm don't care about my Xressources, it displays the default text ! I've tried ask for a full install, and then picking out what I don't need; that's the same thing. I just can get out the docs ;-) Well I have 400 Mb machines and haven't found the way to get the xdm text properly. Could anybody help? (Telling me what xdm uses) I've read all mans. -- Jose JORGE BU Mirail Université Toulouse 2 Tél : 05 61 50 40 59

[expert] firewalling
Hi, I've putted up a firewall with no securities. Because all I need is love (no I'm joking) all I needed was more IP address. All is working fine, except that if I connect from behind the firewall to the net by ftp. this way, all I can do is cd or pwd, if I try a ls or get, I've got a time-out . Here's my ipfwadm config : ipfwadm -F -f ipfwadm -F -p accept ipfwadm -F -a m -S 192.168.2.0/24 -D 0.0.0.0/0 thanks for help - Jose JORGE BU Mirail Université Toulouse 2 Tél : 05 61 50 40 59
