user having individual files storing all their mails ... now you could
have simply issued a tar -c mail  mail.tar from the /var/spool

a little faster method would be

for gzip compression
tar -zcf mail_backup.tar.gz /var/spool/mail
for bzip2 compression
tar -jcf mail_backup.tar.bz2 /var/spool/mail
instead of mail_backup.tar.xx yu can specify the full path where yu want 
the tar to be stored, for e.g.

tar -jcf /home/backup/07Aug03/mail_backup.tar.bz2 /var/spool/mail

put this in a cron job, and your mails will be backed up according to 
the time yu specify automatically.

[ilugd] OSAIA, Bruce Perens' State of the Union talk

2003-08-07 Thread Raj Mathur
First, the OSAIA, a lobbying organisation for open source has been
formed with industry bigwigs as members.

Bruce Perens talks about that, the SCO case and further challenges
facing FLOSS at LinuxWorld.  Royally slams IBM and HP for promoting
software patents and not offering free software developers protection
from patent violations, and Red Hat for ``Proprietary Open Source'':

 Dear Amit,
i have been reading Linux for you , for quite
 some time now , the
 articles they post is good , the price is reasonable
 (50/-) compared to
 other Digit  and PCQuests , a bigger part of Digit's
 magazine is filled
 up with commercial advertisements , in that respect
 linux for you is a
 good magazine, however if you check out the users
 section in their site
 after subscription , you may find a lot of complains
 about corrupted CD
 and other problems , but they do send you a new one
 , and that
 reasonable , i suggest you can go for it ...  Its a
 genuinely good
 magazine about the Linux Box
All the best, take care

 Hello Amit,
  
 I use Mandrake 9.0. I have made two users. In one
 user I am using Gnome and in another one KDE. For
 the last few days, whenever, I switchover to Gnome,
 it displays a 'ximian' windows which I think is a
 mail server. Pl. guide. how I can configure this.
 Everytime I cancel it because I don't have the idea
 of configuring it.
