Programs can invoke sendmail without sendmail running. What I'm talking about (and most of the configurations entail) is having it listening on a socket 24x7. There are also Perl programs like send-email (? -- need to check on Freshmeat) that are much lighter and will do the job admirably.

Is your script a "connect to the 'net" script? You might describe what it does a little more - maybe your problem is already solved by someone more experienced than me (ppp dial-up for example). I don't recall a no password option to sudo, though there might be one. But of course you have to lock down what it can do in that case (e.g. don't give permission to run a script to someone who can edit the script).

If you have more than one machine in your network, and they communicate at 100Mbps, then no, it's not a waste IMHO. But if you went looking for 100Mbps on purpose, hoping to get a 100Mbps connection through your cable modem, you'll be disappointed. I've not heard of any cable internet provider that runs at even 10Mbps (not saying there are none, only none that I know of). Most of the time the best you can hope for is a few (read 2 - 5) Mbps. I you really want a 100Mbps pipe, you're gonna hafta cough a lot more a month than you do for cable internet. -- Linux SxS [http://hal.humberc.on.ca/~mrcn0031/sxs/] ___ Linux-users mailing list Archives, Digests, etc at http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users

Linux Dial-up Server
I am interested in what people are using for Linux dial-up servers these days. I have a mid-sized company interested in providing dialup for their users and I need to put together a proposal soon. Rather than investigate all the options, I thought I'd ask people who do it already.

broadcast2000 troubles, adsl help
Hello all, been a long time since i've been on the list. had to unsubscribe so i wouldn't get fired at work i have a few questions. i recently got dsl!!! yippy it is working great. the zyxel modem that earthlink sent also assigns ip addresses, so i got my 2 machines going thru it with a hub, instead of making a router/hub out of my linux box. the problem is, when i'm on the net i lose the connection after about a minute of no traffic. how can i increase this timeout to a half hour or so. i recently perchased suse 7.3 pro and loaded it on, everything was working good, TILL i did an online update. i also changed the security setting from custom to workstation. i have now changed them back as it locked some programs and such that i didn't want locked. anyway, i use broadcast2000 for audio editing for my church, and since i have done the security change (even tho i changed it back) and online update, i can't use the program anymore. i have tried to reload it, no worky. so i logged in as root and it works fine, so i checked permissions and even copied the bcast.rc file from the hidden dir to my users hidden dir to no avail. it still locks up the program as soon as i try to play a wav file. how do i get this program to work for the user again? next question,. when i log off kde, the mouse freezes in the middle of the screen, if i do a ctrl-alt-backspace to restart x, it works fine again till the next time i log off. any ideas on a fix? thanks alot everyone, steve thompson ___ Linux-users mailing list Archives, Digests, etc at http://linux.nf/mailman/listinfo/linux-users

OL 3.1 Svr Prob w/Apache/Samba
I have loaded OL3.1 Server and did an on-line update. I'm trying to get Samba and Apache configured and working. First The network: I have a Linksys BFSR11 router between my computers and my cable modem. I have set-up ip addresses for my internal net as 192.168All computers are DHCP except my linux web server box which I have set-up as static. I set it up as static so I can configure my router to forward port 21 and 80 requests to my linux web server box. I do not have a DNS server. Everything is peer-to-peer. I had Apache and Samba working fine about three days ago and then I had to rearrange some partitions and as a result I had to reload OL3.1. Now I can't get it working ;-( The one thing I'm sure that I did different is the online update. Apache: I tried to start Apache and I get the following message. I did a search on SxS and haven't found anything referencing "vhosts". Does anyone know what it's wanting here. I'm guessing it has to do with configuration of virtual hosts which I didn't configure any??? Failed to start apache : Starting httpd services: httpdProcessing config directory: /etc/httpd/modules/*.conf Processing config file: /etc/httpd/modules/00mod_backhand.conf Processing config file: /etc/httpd/modules/mod_dav.conf Processing config file: /etc/httpd/modules/mod_jk.conf Processing config file: /etc/httpd/modules/mod_log_spread.conf Processing config file: /etc/httpd/modules/mod_perl.conf Processing config file: /etc/httpd/modules/mod_php4.conf Processing config file: /etc/httpd/modules/mod_php4_horde.conf Processing config file: /etc/httpd/modules/mod_php4_horde_imp.conf Processing config file: /etc/httpd/modules/mod_roaming.conf Processing config file: /etc/httpd/modules/mod_ssl.conf Processing config directory: /etc/httpd/vhosts/*.conf Samba: I used webmin to setup Samba shares, the home directory shares as well as a custom share. I've used webmin, command line and Swat to try to start the Samba server. None seem to work. I configured samba users to be sync'd with unix. I've used webmin to set both apache and samba to start at boot-up. When I use my windoz box to try to connect to my samba shares, I don't see my linux box in the neighborhood network. This is typical, so I search for it using the static ip address. This has worked for me in the past (COL 2.3 server) but this time it seems that my linux box is in stealth mode. I probably have multiple problems here, possibly with my network interface. Anybody got any ideas on where to start? Thanks in advance!
