Sendmail
Hi, I have successfully installed Mysql and PHP but I am unable to send email via php. Sendmail is already installed apparently. I want to know if there is a way to test email by sendmail command lines. Another thing is that how to configure sendmail because i'm just a regular customer of an internet provider. I know the provider's mail server parameters. Can sendmail be used with these parameters?

Re: Character encoding
Hi, Thank you for your answer. I want to use this in my personal computer. Can you give me the name of the variable please? Say I will set that variable to UTF-8 in /etc/profile, do you think that vim will always save my files in utf-8 format? Another thing, a lot of editors allow to choose the text encoding format, and that what i want to be set by default to utf-8. I know that in my html code i have to set manually.

So i run this command: file --mime index.php. The output is : index.php: text/html But this does not give any character encoding type. I would like to convert this file to UTF-8 but the command convmv cannot be run without specifying the type of the file with -f option i think. There is no general way to find out the character encoding of a random piece of data. Some encodings are fairly easy to recognize but the numerous eight-bit encodings can be difficult to tell apart. The character encoding must always be specified somewhere if it isn't implicitly known. In some file systems it's possible to specify the character encoding of a file as an attribute, but I've never seen it used. HTML can contain a meta tag that specifies the encoding, like this: meta http-equiv=Content-Type content=text/html; charset=utf-8 If the HTML file is served by an HTTP server, then the server can specify the encoding in the Content-Type header, and there are rules that define what the encoding is if the server doesn't specify it. You could open the file in a browser that lets you choose the encoding, and try an encoding that you think it may be. Then proofread the text. If all the characters are right, then you guessed right, or close enough to work for that particular file. If not, try the next encoding. o is there a way to convert this file to UTF-8 Once you know the current encoding, transcoding won't be a big problem. If the encoding is specified in the file, such as in a meta tag, then you'll have to change that too. or better how to set the default character encoding to utf-8? Default in what context? The locale settings in the environment include a character encoding. Many programs assume that text files and filenames are encoded in that encoding, but some programs think they're smarter and assume something else. (The approach with environment variables will of course fail if different users use different locales and access the same files.)

Re: Need help with partitioning
Hi thank you for your answer, I didn't understand many things. 1. When you speak about fedora live cd do you mean the cd that i used for installing fedora? in That case there are some options when i boot from it, which one should i use? 2. when using fdisk should i use n for creating the partitions you sugested or i must unpartition everything. In that case how? May be these are obvious questions for people who already use these tchniques but for me it is really the first time. Maybe i should read some tutorial dealing with that.

Given you will do it right and don't need to preserve the current partitions I would boot from a Fedora live CD or rescue system and use fdisk to partition the disk by fdisk /dev/sda prim partion 1: 24 gb hpfs prim partion 2: 50 gb ext3 (for boot, you may safely ignore the warning) prim partion 3: 500 mb swap prim partion 4: rest of the disk for LVM In LVM: 8 - 10 gb lvSYS for the root file system 10 gb lvHOME for /home you may have about 2 gb unallocated which you can use later by lvm manager according to your needs. For root: 8 gb is enough for normal use (office desktop) and if you don't install all software packages. 10 gb is pretty much comfortable in this case, but you may need it for /home. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list

I trying to install gcc because i didn't choose to do so during the installation process. I am using the menu applications -- add remove software. After that i have an alert box saying that an other program is blocking access to information about software. Do you have an idea about how i can resolve that?

When installing it i choose to create a new partition (D:) that i was intending to use for fedora8. After installing fedora 8, now i have both operating systems windows uses c: (20GB) i have D: accessible from windows that i can format to either FAT or NTFS, but fedora only uses the remaining space so now i cannot run any program, even mozilla does not work. So my question is if there is a way to increase fedora's partition, knowing that i have access to c: but not to d: from fedora. I'm using fedora8 because i'm intending to use a software that only runs in version 8. Thank you for advance To have fedora and WinXP on the same machine you do not create a partition D:. When you install F8 you can re-format that partition as a ext3 p[partition as well as reallocate the space to handle the F8 system. partd and gpartd can be used in Fedora to re-size partitions also. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
