However, if this is Starband, at least one of their USB interfaces was plugged internally into an Ethernet port, and someone on Slashdot showed how it could be dismantled and the USB adapter bypassed to make a pure ethernet connection. --- Jeff NewmillerThe . .

RE: [Leaf-user] The script to send log files
Hi Kevin,
Looking at the errors that you are getting it looks like a DNS
problem to me. Try and ping your smtp mail server by name from your
firewall
ping mail.atl.bellsouth.net
I tried to ping mail.atl.bellsouth.net and mail.alt.bellsouth.net
from my computer and got a "couldn't resolve address" error. Make
sure the spelling is correct in lrp.conf. If the ping by name
doesn't work substitute the ip address in the lrp_MAIL_SERVER
variable in lrp.conf if you know it.
Good Luck,
Robert Williams

RE: [Leaf-user] The script to send log files
I get this when pinging from the firewall: amberton: -root- # ping mail.atl.bellsouth.net PING mail.bellsouth.net (205.152.58.136): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 205.152.58.136: icmp_seq=0 ttl=250 time=21.5 ms 64 bytes from 205.152.58.136: icmp_seq=1 ttl=250 time=22.6 ms 64 bytes from 205.152.58.136: icmp_seq=2 ttl=250 time=21.6 ms 64 bytes from 205.152.58.136: icmp_seq=3 ttl=250 time=21.8 ms 64 bytes from 205.152.58.136: icmp_seq=4 ttl=250 time=20.7 ms I changed the DNS name to the listed IP in lrp.conf and will see what happens in the morning.

Re: [Leaf-user] Geocrawler search not working?
Peter- I also reported this several months ago. It looked then like no message past about 11/15/2000 was indexed. It removes a lot of the utility of having a list if past info can't be searched. Like in "Memento", we have no memory!

RE: [Leaf-user] The script to send log files
After watching this thread, I thought I'd give it a try too. After having grief with the -d command (not known) I thought I'd go super simple, as I have a mail server on my LAN. So I've used the private IP address for the mail server , i.e.: lrp_MAIL_SERVER=192.168.1.252 lrp_MAIL_ADMIN="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" After rebooting the system, I tried the 'mail -s "logs" [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user
