In the above, BIND will still attempt to answer queries, it just won't perform recursion to do so. In particular, the cache is still available. See problem statement, above. Interesting.. I have apparently mis-understood the allow-recursion option for many years. That should do it, I believe. That did it. It does exactly what I want the way I wanted it.

Best tool for MIME handling in scripts?
What do folks here use for massaging MIME messages in shell scripts? For instance, the task at hand is to take incoming mail from a scanner, strip out the MIME attachments (PDF's), and dump them in a folder. There should be a tool that I can pipe the message to, specify an option to save, an option to specify a save location, an option to specify the MIME types to handle, and call it from procmail. I've found munpack, reformime, Perl's MIMETools, but none has jumped out as the tool that does things The Unix Way. Any suggestions? -Bill - Bill McGonigle, Owner Work: 603.448.4440 BFC Computing, LLC Home: 603.448.1668 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mobile: 603.252.2606 http://www.bfccomputing.com/Pager: 603.442.1833 Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Text: [EMAIL PROTECTED] RSS: http://blog.bfccomputing.com/rss ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
MerriLUG meeting this evening!
Hello, all. Here is a reminder e-mail about the meeting this evening. As usual, 6:00 for dinner at Martha's, and meeting to commence at 7:30 upstairs in function room. (And, yes, the room availability is Go!) I've made a reservation for 15 -- but if you could RSVP so I have a decent idea of headcount, it would be much appreciated. We'll have Windriver (makers of VxWorks) presenting this evening about some of their stuff, and how Linux ties in. One thing I've noticed on-list recently is a fair number of questions about DNS. Is there any interest in that as a topic for an upcoming meeting? I believe Ben has secreted away a presentation about it -- I, for one, would be very interested, as I'm currently using djbdns, and am thinking about alternatives. See you tonight! -Ken ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss

Check out the source tree's examples subdir, there are scripts in here such as mimedump and mimeexplode that do exactly what you are asking for. These could easily be called in a procmail recipe.

Re: Linux Printer from Win98 - Resolved
The word virtually in the above worries me. I've certainly burned myself with statements like that before. :-) But anyway... That is why I used it. Virtually is one of the words that has flip-flopped in our language. It should mean essentially or in appearance, but not formally or actually. In common usage today, it often means truly. Decimate is another word I hesitate to use by its dictionary definition. It means a loss of 1 in 10 but is often used to suggest 9 in 10. Try adding the following to smb.conf, in the [global] section: No change. It may be that things go as far as Win98-Samba-CUPS and then barfs in the printer... That put me on the right track. Thanks! Enabled ErrorLog /var/log/cups/error_log in cupsd.conf. Try Win98 print again. Got this: -- D [15/Sep/2005:08:59:05 -0400] AcceptClient: 5 from localhost:631.

The old virtually-the-same setup used an explicit (another word whose meaning has changed) print command which included -o raw, making the stream mime unnecessary. Apparently, samba 2.2 honored print command even if printcap name and printing were both equal to cups in smb.conf. Not so with samba 3.0. The mystery is solved. The day is won. The sun shines again. I probably will remember that I learned something from this but forget what it was.

I suggest people use 'devastate' if they feel inclined to use 'decimate' inappropriately. I suspect a confusion there may have lead to inappropriate usage originally. Some computer graphics algorithms do decimation, to slightly reduce the complexity of a data structure. Sometimes you'll do a second pass if you need slightly more than the fist pass did. There's not a fixed 10% aspect like there might have been in the Roman Army, but it does mean to reduce slightly. The trouble with letting words get away is there often isn't a suitable replacement. -Bill - Bill McGonigle, Owner Work: 603.448.4440 BFC Computing, LLC Home: 603.448.1668 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mobile: 603.252.2606 http://www.bfccomputing.com/Pager: 603.442.1833 Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Text: [EMAIL PROTECTED] RSS: http://blog.bfccomputing.com/rss ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
Half Dux Linksys?
Good afternoon, all. Today I had my service swapped over from cable to DSL. When I hit Speakeasy's speed test after the new service was setup however I got a bit of a shock. My download speed was clocking in at only 800kbps ( upload is about 650 ). I was a bit concerned and so I reconnected my cable modem and tried again...and got very similar results ( 780 down and 500 up ). I disconnected my Linksys Firewall Router ( BESFX41 ) and went directly against the modems. This looked much better. My upload didn't change in either case but my download for both went up over 3k. I have a standard Linksys Router ( BEFSR41 ) here also which I hooked up. This had almost no impact on the speeds, so it's definetly something with the FIrewall Router. I went thru the admin menu of the troublesome equipment and I can't find anything that might put this thing into half duplex mode or otherwise cripple it's performance. I have no logging enabled on the router and no special filters running. I double-checked Linksys site and am running the most current firmware ( dated 2004 ) and Google has not turned up any leads. I have been using this unit for the last 2+ years and to be honest with you it has been a LONG time since I've done a speed test, probably when I first got everything networked up, so I couldn't say when it may have done this to me. I know I could just put in the non-firewall in place for now but I really don't want to give up the firewall. Any ideas / suggestions / experience? -L

One correction to Bill's announcement: Our guest speaker this month will be our own Lloyd Kvam, who knows something about Functional Programming. It's probably more accurate to same that I am interested in Functional Programming. I wish I *really* knew more about it. On Thu, 2005-09-15 at 15:22 -0400, Bill Sconce wrote: How time flies!

I ended up retiring it. I went the geeky route with a small multi-homed debian box and a WAP to keep the wireless, but my speed with comcast jumped up again, then higher when I moved to Speakeasy... just my experience ~ *
