Re: Sendmail Masquerading Question

 I think it was either Kurt or you who said to add

 the header, I think it's the fact that in the header of the email
 contains
 
 Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
 is what is causing the other servers to reject because a direct cut and
 paste of the From info (from the same header) is
 
 From: Ian [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 

You need to setup masquerading for the envelope and the header, and you
can also use genericstable to rewrite the From:.  If you take a look at 
Linux Journal's site there's a wrieup I did on a sendmail setup like this
that I've used successfully at a manufacturing plant where several folks
were masqued behind one internet account.  I do the same thing here and
run 4 seperate accounts for my various identitities.

If you need more details, holler.

 BTW, is that it includes FreeSWAN VPN solution in the box.  Caldera, RH,

Free/SWAN patches are in the Mandrake kernel, as well as the user space

 I either need to track down a good PCI internal or a 56k external...one

 not a pressing item, so I've not spent much time figuring out what's a

I've used the ActionTec Call Waiting PCI modem with little problem.  the

 I was wondering your 'technique' for discovering what /device it's on this 
 week or whether you tail /var/log/messages. The dynamic and arbitrary drive 
 assignment of Linux-scsi has been a bad design decision. Sum1 didn't think 
 this through very well at all, and to get over it they have implemented all 
 sorts of even worse design decisions in forcing fixed addresses at kernel 
 boot time.
  

Yeah the 'technique' is pretty shakey.  dmesg and /var/log/messages does
not mention the device assignment.  Your only clue, apparently is here:

[root@powerbook-cooker root]# cat /proc/scsi/scsi 
Attached devices: 
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
  Vendor: SanDisk  Model: ImageMate II Rev: 1.30
  Type:   Direct-AccessANSI SCSI revision: 02

And if you happen to know your scsi chain, you can extrapolate the device
id from this.  Another person's idea of using cdrecord -scanbus would
work too. Of course if you have mixed device types on the bus (tape,
scanner, disk), each type starts a new numbering sequence:

disk at 1,1  sda
tape at 1,2  st0
disk at 1,3  sdb

Look into rplayd.  I use it with a diskless Iopener.  I run X from the

I've got a HOWTO on the Iopener setup on my web space:
