Scusate se insisto nuovamente ma riguardo al modo migliore il comando da usare è rgrep. Non lo dico io ma lo dice lo stesso man di rgrep. Adesso non ho rgrep sul mio sistema, quindi non posso verificare. Però, immagino che non sia molto diverso da grep -R ossia che faccia una ricerca in modo rapido ed efficiente anche nelle sotto-directory. L'uso combinato di find+grep,invece permette di stabilire una serie di altre condizioni. Ad es. restringere la ricerca a file creati entro certe date, includere o meno i link simbolici o directory montate in NFS/samba, escludere gli eseguibili, ... il man di find è immenso ;-) Probabilmente, rgrep è più rapido su ricerche standard e find+grep più configurabile. ciao, andrea

Il problema è che non è fetchmail che consegna la posta, il comando is ferris here è l'indicazione a sendmail di effettuare la consegna nello spool di ferris che sendmail conosce perchè creato dal sistema di gestione della posta locale. Questo spool credo sia generato automaticamente dal sistema MTA di default che gestisce la posta locale (sendmail normalmente) se si sceglie però di installare il sistema di gestione locale della posta quando si installa linux, altrimenti il /var/spool/mail/utente nemmeno verrebbe creato cioè lo spool risulterebbe vuoto. Ora mi viene il dubbio che con la creazione manuale di una sottodirectory come tu hai in mente di fare a questo spool d'utente, un semplice richiamo in fetchmailrc non sia sufficiente a sendmail se questo nuovo utente non è contemplato nei file di configurazione di sendmail. Arwan che ha seguito fedelmente tutti i discorsi fatti ultimamente e si è convertita a mutt, che mi pento personalmente di aver un po maltrattato, anche a causa della mia conoscenza empirica, ha perso spesso il controllo della situazione durante le prove all'inizio, proprio per questo motivo ( perchè aveva vuoto lo spool utente) difatti non avendo installato un sistema di rete locale, anche se creato a mano successivamente il sistema sendmail non lo riconosceva. Però a suo dire dopo aver reinstallato il tutto il problema è stato risolto. Quindi penso questo per deduzione non per una conoscenza tecnica diretta del problema in se. Per chi decidesse comunque di installare il pacchetto sendmail, una prova fondamentale prima fra tutte è quello di appurare se all'atto della creazione di un nuovo utente viene aggiunto il relativo spool d'utente /var/spool/mail/users. Se questo avviene allora si può procedere con il resto. Luigi quello che posso dirti ora è che molto probabilmente il /var/spool/mail/ferris/lycos che vuoi creare non potrà funzionare perchè lo spool è associato all'utente ossia l'utente è associato al sistema della posta e allora sicuramente ci sarà da configurare sendmail, ma potrei anche sbagliarmi non conoscendo bene come si configura il file .fetchmailrc Puoi provare per il momento a specioficare la path a is ferris/lycos here per esempio ma sono solo prove, divertiti così per ora, tanto si impara sempre anche in questo modo, almeno conosci quali sono i comandi che non funzionano ;) e imparerai ad apprezzare quelli che invece funzionano. Vedi comunque di pensare a spostare le tue mailbox interfree e lycos dallo spool e metterle nella tua home, con procmail ti troverai bene e potrai sempre smistarle poi come ti pare.

[newbie-it] Mutt-1.5.4 ricompilato
Syd ho dovuto rimettere la versione 1.4.1 perchè quel source RPM che ho scaricato sebbene avesse risolto il problema dell'header X-Mailer nell'uso mi sono accorto di alcune irregolarità di funzionamento, alcuni comandi sebbene configurati per default non funzionavano, per di più ora ho problemi di rumori sulla linea telecom esterna e riesco a malapena a scaricare la posta e a inviarla, non ne parliamo di navigare in internet. Ho fatto reclami ma qui con la privatizzazione telecom e i nuovi contratti di lavoro tutti i dipendendi sembrano diventati isterici e io ancora sto aspettado una riparazione, alla fine se non si fa vedere nessuno deciderò di ripararmela da me (è una linea rurale su pali di legno lunga 1,5 km circa) una volta l'ho fatto, erano semplici giunti scoppiati a causa di forti gradienti di corrente indotta per fulminazione indiretta o perchè vi è entrata l'acqua e ossidati, questi fili hanno un'anima di acciaio rivestito di rame, se entra l'acqua nel giunto si verifica un effetto galvanico tra i due metalli che provoca una veloce corrosione dell'anima di acciaio e poi la sottile copertura di rame cede. Scusami per la divagazione, potresti passarmi qualche indirizzo dove poter scaricare gli srpm di mutt vers. 1.5.4 per redhat così da provarne di altri autori ? Tanto la procedura di ricompilare con srpm è veloce me ne puoi mandare più di uno che li provo tutti sperando che ci sia uno che sia preciso come l'1.4.1 ma che abbia risolto con X-Mailer.

Il problema è che il disco non faceva + il boot, pensando che era ancora incasinato ho fatto l'upgrade alla Mandrake 8.2 ed ora la macchina mi chiede di partire con Linux oppure Old_Linux e funziona tutto bene. old linux è il vecchio kernel, suppongo hai installato sopra alla vecchia distribuzione, vero? E' possibile ritornare indietro rimuovere tutta la versione 8.2 ? senza scancellare la 7.1? solo se hai installato su una partiizione distinta.. altrimenti hai sovrascritto tutto... se hai l'immagine fatta con ghost puoi sempre ripristinarla avviare quindi con un cd o un floppy, montare la partizione root fare chroot (in questo modo ti troverai dentro il sistema, esattamente come se avessi avviato con lui) e lanciare lilo questo (se non hai modificato la posizione del disco) sarà sufficiente a far ripartire il sistema ghost (mi pare) non ripristini il mbr ..

In caso di spegnimento sporco peròè probabile che i meta-dati non siano utilizzabili ; per correggere il problema, fsck inizia una scansione tentando di correggere i vari errori (in definitiva cercando di riportare in stato consistente i metadati, anche al rischio di perdita delle ultime modifiche) Questo metodo è sicuro, ma lentissimo, dovendo controllare tutto il disco; quindi per superarlo sono stati realizzati sistemi journalling, che aggiungono una sorta di diario; cioè prima di modificare i meta-dati, il driver di gestione dei fs scrive nel journal cosa sta per fare. Quando il fs viene montato, se non è integro, grazie al journal, (un log cronologico delle ultime modifiche ai meta-dati) potrà tornare indietro in stato di consistenza in pochi secondi.

[newbie] acroread won't print
Anyone know why i wouldn't be able to get acroread to print? Other programs print the same files with the same command. /usr/bin/lp, lpr, etc. The only reason i wanna print from acroread is i have a screwed up pdf that only it and xpdf can see. It's screwed up enough, though, that xpdf won't print it. (and oddly, the acrobat for winblows won't open it either.) Acroread acts like it is printing it, but no jobs show up, and nothing happens. I did try a known good pdf with acroread, but still no pronting. So i have hopes that if i can get it to pring at all, it will print my borked file. Acroread's printing to ps is screwed, too...

The spec file contained within an RPM contains the list of dependent packages for the *binary* RPM not the packages needed to compile from src. If you were to add those two '-devel' packages to the spec file then they would be necessary to install the binary RPM.

We asked Gaël Duval about that in our e-mail discussions about the MandrakeClustering announcement. MozillaQuest Magazine: How are you coming along with finances and the bankruptcy? Gaël Duval: No big news, but we have nearly finished our internal restructuring, with a strong commitment to doing business. Gaël Duval: We should be out of the chapter-11 protection in about 8 months (it takes time!). MozillaQuest Magazine: I think lots of people will be glad to hear that you are coming along with the finances and bankruptcy. Gaël Duval: The situation is really better than before for two reasons: 1) MandrakeSoft reorganization is nearly finished and 2) we have focused much on the business side. MozillaQuest Magazine: This is good to hear also. MozillaQuest Magazine: By the business side, is that the Mandrake Corporate server and now the MandrakeClustering? Gaël Duval: They are part of our plans to extend the business! MozillaQuest Magazine: Is the book (The Definitive Guide to Using Mandrake Linux) part of that too? Gaël Duval: It's part of the current plan as well. The good thing is that at the same time, it answers a strong demand from Mandrake users. MozillaQuest Magazine: Anything else within that which you call the business side? Gaël Duval: Improving the Club, improving MandrakeStore: these things also help us to make more business everyday. --LX __ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!

First I noticed that Hard Drake found that there was a Canon camera connected to the USB port but I did not recognize the model.

Par works with WinRar AFAIK only. its a way of making sure redundancy is built in so that if you miss one RAR archive the PAR's can be used to build a coherent set of archives anyway. - FemmeFatale, aka The Skirt And it does that extremely well. Rar is the bomb. I use it for archiving to cdrom, for that very reason; if an archive segment gets blown out by a bad sector on a cd, then I can reconstruct the archive array using the recovery information.

Now it works with OSS just fine.: So, I must say that the seat socket can come unplugged. I found that my sound problems revolve around the fact that I have a sblive! card and had only one set of speakers plugged into the socket next to the serial connector. i.e. the plugin for the back speakers. I put the plug in the next socket over and I had sound in the xmms and games. My only excuse is that in the wrong socket I still had system sounds and couldn't figure out why I had no cdplayer sounds. Yes I do forget to watch what I am doing or need new glasses.

Drugs, it has been revealed, are responsible for rampant absenteeism, reduced output, and poor quality work. But is drug testing in fact rationally related to the resurrection of competitiveness? Will charging the atmosphere of the workplace with the fear of excretory betrayal honestly spur productivity? Much noise has been made about rehabilitating the worker using drugs, but to date the vast majority of programs end with the simple firing or the not hiring of the abuser. This practice may exacerbate, not alleviate, the nation's productivity problem. If economic rehabilitation is the ultimate goal of drug testing, then criteria abandoning the rehabilitation of the drug-using worker is the purest of hypocrisy and the worst of rationalization. -- The concluding paragraph of Constitutional Law: The Fourth Amendment and Drug Testing in the Workplace, Tim Moore, Harvard Journal of Law Public Policy, vol. 10, No. 3 (Summer 1987), pp. 762-768.

Hi, At least in zsh, completion is programmable: there is a context sensitive completion that you can define for any command, and it is all done with the same key (tab for me, but you can change that).
