Re: [expert] Zip drives and supermount in MDK 7.2 does not work.

  Internal (atapi) Zip drives appear not to work properly
 in MDK 7.2 with supermount (as the installation sets them
 up).  

I have not yet seen this problem. I use mine for file backups and have never 
had a problem removing the disk

 Of course, perhaps this explains why the desktop zip icon
 that the install creates has the invalid URL of /mnt.zip.
 You aren't really supposed to use your Zip drive with MDK 7.2.

7.2 created my supermount for it, but I had to create my own desktop icon.

RE: [expert] pop-3

2000-11-05 Thread Phil Connor

 I can send maill out from outlook thru my linux box all day.

Pinging rdcomputersolutions.net results in an "unknown host"

 ps (i am a windows computer expert not linux. I am learning linux :)   )

Useing a simple tool such as ping help to toubleshoot your problem. pinging
you again only this time adding mail to your domain ex.
"mail.computersoultions.net" results in a response of

Pinging mail.rdcomputersolutions.net [12.21.134.137] with 32 bytes of data:

Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.
Request timed out.

Ping statistics for 12.21.134.137
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),
Approximate round trip tmimes in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms

This makes me wonder 2 things... Are you running a firewall and if not have
you set up an MX pointer to your server...? For now until you do you should
have your friends and users use "mail.rdcomputersolutions.net as the reply
to your e-mails. I was able to send you email useing

Let me know if you need any help

  Robert,
 
  Do not confuse POP-3 with SMTP.  POP-3 is a way to RETRIEVE mail only.
  When you send mail, you utilize SMTP.  It sounds like the most likely
  explanation is independent of all of the above though.  Either your SMTP
  options in your E-mail program are incorrect (i.e.: an invalid
 SMTP host)
 or
  the DNS server (that the SMTP server you connect to to send
 mail) can not
  correctly resolve the domain of your mail host that is the
 final delivery
  point.
 
  The (traveling) life of an E-mail
  -
  Sender's mail client sends mail (SMTP) to it's listed SMTP host.
  The SMTP host then decides if the user is local:
  Yes, Skip to Drop step
  No, Pass mail on
  Pass mail onto server that holds the desired recipient (again utilizing
 SMTP)
  Drop mail into recipient's mailbox
  Recipient checks for mail (POP-3)
  -
 
  As for on-demand POP-3, that is controlled by the inetd daemon.  When a
  request to the POP-3 port is received, inetd calls the POP-3 server
 program
  which then processes the actual request (to retrieve user's mail).  The
 same
  goes for IMAP if you choose to *retrieve* your mail that way.
 
  Summary:  your POP-3 settings on your server should not have anything to
 do
  with your server's ability to receive mail.  Look either at your sending
  e-mail program's SMTP setting and/or check that your server's
 DNS entry is
  current and correct.
 
  Enjoy,
 
  Woody ([EMAIL PROTECTED])

RE: [expert] Postfix and getting rid of the machine name

2000-10-31 Thread Phil Connor


 I can't get rid of the machine name when trying to send E-mail to my
 accounts.  I uncommented the myorigin = $mydomain line in main.cf and
 reloaded postfix, but no such luck.

Try this and see if it helps... in your main.cf add this to the bottom of
the file

masquerade_domains = yourdomain.name

where as if your machine name was mail.foo.bar your masquerade_domains would
be foo.bar

Did you restart postfix after the change??

 Didn't work so I chopped the machine name off the domain name.  Now it
 works, but there must be another way, maybe with aliasesDB?

 This is not true anymore for 2.2 kernels, and since ..

Wish that were true in all cases, got a p3/600 setting right behind me that
required me to append the memory in Lilo. Seems it's more bios related since
the kernel version is 2.2.15

  I am running
  Mandrake 7 on one machine with 320 megs of memory.
  something else (such as a bug in the memory info program) ?


Try typing "free" (no quotes)in a term window the first line first # refers
to system ram if it doesn't say 320,000 or more as the first # then you must
append it in lilo.conf regardless of the kernel version

RE: [expert] syslog restarts and other wierdness

2000-10-19 Thread Phil Connor


I don't understand, dhcpd should just use the address of the NIC.  How
does it know "the address is already in use"?

Nope! try setting the ipaddress for DHCPD as .0 example 192.168.20.0 and
then set your range to start with your nic address like 192.168.20.20 -
192.168.20.40

Perhaps there is more that one dhcpd running on the box.  What does the
log file say?  What does the output from ifconfig say?  What does your
dhcpd.conf file say?

Only if he has several or virtual address's which will all have to have an
entry/declaration even if their not used to give address out.
