[expert] iptables and msn messenger
I'm currently running a server who shares a adsl connection (masquerade nat) without any problems. But users inside the network are complaining that they can't use msn messenger's voice chat feature. I've googled and found out some ports to be open. I opened them but voice still doesn't seems to work, although file transfers using messenger are now working fine (it wasn't working with ports closed). Any suggestions to enable my users to use voice chat? (iptables | mdk9.0) Cheers, Leonardo Sá --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

[expert] postfix and sasl2
i've upgraded my server box from 9.0 to 9.1 and then i lost sasl authentication. I was using sasldb with postfix in 9.0 and everything was working fine. Now I can only get a "535 Error: authentication failed" on my postfix server. I've read somewhere that the postfix rpm that comes with mandrake is compiled to use sasl instead of sasl2. Is it true? I've tried everything i know. I also tried using pwcheck_method: auxprop but postfix does not recognize this method (i got this in my logs: "postfix/smtpd[16528]: warning: SASL authentication problem: unrecognized plaintext verifier auxprop"). I need to downgrade my rpms to get things working again? If not, what do I do now?

My mdk9.0 server was running fine (almost fine, it had some freezing problems that i've posted in this list sometime ago) until the moment I tried to access the webpage.

[expert] strange freezing
I have a mdk9.0 server running apache, mysql, postfix and mailman. It's a 400mbram 333mhz celeron. After running very well for 2 or 3 days, it suddenly freezes. I can't even logout and log in again. The terminal and the famous ctrl+alt+del also doesn't work. So, when I reboot everything goes back to normal, but it freezes again in 2 or 3 days. What is happenning?
