It is better to write your own rules than messing with these files (/var/lib/libvirt). The default network mode of libvirt is a private network behind NAT. The guests are provided an IP address via DHCP. If you want a guest to be accessible from the Internet then you will have to configure static IP in your guest, ensure that you give an IP in the 192.168.231.0/24 range. Then you will have to set up DNAT iptable rules. AFAIK, to prevent libvirt from overriding your rules, you should be using "-I" (INSERT) instead of "-A" (APPEND). Put your rules in the file /etc/sysconfig/iptables This is the theory. I *do not* use libvirt. I use VDE for my networking with command line KVM.

The Linux statfs() was inspired by the 4.4BSD one (but they do not use the same structure). NOTES The kernel has system calls statfs(), fstatfs(), statfs64(), and fstatfs64() to support this library call. Some systems only have , other systems also have , where the former includes the latter. So it seems including the former is the best choice. LSB has deprecated the library calls statfs() and fstatfs() and tells us to use statvfs(2) and fstatvfs(2) instead. So, using statvfs is the POSIX-ly right thing to do. I think this discussion should really be had with upstream regarding this problem.

But, why check "/boot"? As far as I understood from the statvfs(2), it
accepts a path to get the information. "/boot" is not something that
Exim will use as a spool directory. Or am I missing something!?

Do you think we need a Bug filed for this? An MTA doing a "getattr" on
/boot seems a little unnecessary to me.

Where is the torrent for the F11 netinst.iso
Hi, I could not find the torrents for the F11 "netinst.iso" anywhere on http://torrents.fedoraproject.org/ Trying to download the ISO images using plaing FTP/HTTP is impossible; I get 20 B/s and stalled/broken connections from my nearest mirror. Why are torrents not available for the netinst.iso images? Any specific reasons?

Since, you are already using procmail, there should be no problem delivering to Maildir format. Here are a couple of links to help you understand more about this format - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maildir http://wiki.dovecot.org/MailboxFormat/Maildir Also, you might find the `mb2md' perl script useful to convert your current Mbox mails to Maildir - http://www.gerg.ca/hacks/mb2md/ NOTE: I have used the above script before and it has worked for me, however, standard precautionary practice of taking a backup and performing a test deployment applies.

The `wall' command writes messages to the "tty" terminals, whereas X window uses a different mechanism. You will need to write your own tool to do this. A basic idea can be to use the D-Bus to send notification/message to a Gnome or KDE applet specifically created for this purpose.
