The card works great, including 3d acceleration with the free driver that probably comes with your distribution.

Re: Webmail like Gmail + encryption
Hi Danny, I want to encrypt inside company emails. I thought about building a mail server with webmail and a plugin for encryption. Most of the use of the webmail interface will be from known computers. The amount of emails will be at a hundreds. But I need to keep the private key at each user hand. I'm thinking to pass the encryption, I don't want it to be a burden.

rpcbind dump and restore?
I have a work script on verious old machines that would use pmap_dump and pmap_set to restart portmap without losing registered applications. those two tools no longer come with rpcbind (which is the new rpc registry, supporting more than just pmap, etc). anyone knows how I can get the same functionality with rpcbind? -- Free your mind and your ass will follow Ira Abramov http://ira.abramov.org/email/ = To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Webmail like Gmail + encryption
Kfir What is the threat, who is the attacker and what is the asset you are protecting? There is little reason to encrypt internal email in my experience. Let's say that Mike in sales has an insider tip on company stock options and he wants to tell Yael in HR. Encryption doesn't mitigate that threat. Let's say that Yossi has a secret algorithm he wants to sell to the dark side. Encrypting internal email won't mitigate that threat either. If there are confidential files being sent by email to external destinations - encrypt the files and give the key to the recipient. BUT - If you're concerned about information leakage then your cheapest and most effective countermeasure is monitoring email transmission for particular data types and destinations.
