[newbie] Mail server question
How do I go about setting a mail server? I got sendmail to work properly and I am able to send messages out but I am guessing I need to set-up fetchmail so I can receive messages? How do I set it up? I enabled it to start up during boot-up but it doesnt actually start... Is there a good walkthrough somewhere on setting up?
Re: [newbie] Mail server question
No, I meant I want to set-up a POP3 mail server ON my machine. I assumed that fetchmail was an actual server like sendmail. How do I get started, anyone? - Original Message - From: "L Almagor" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 14, 2000 3:34 AM Subject: Re: [newbie] Mail server question At the prompt, type "fetchmailconf" for a cute graphical walk-through.

In the forth partition, i had an suse linux installed(around 8 - 9 gb) with swap, boot and root partition. I started Mandrake 7.2 installation from the CD rom and choose "Select existing partition". It showed the existing linux partition(SuSe one). It asked to continue with the formating of the Linux Native partition. and resulted in error saying "unable to format and mount" Then, i thought of changing the partition size, i used advanced option,(DiskDrake - disk partitioner and resizer), this showed the existing partition information on the disk properly, and then i created partitions and selected mount point for the /boot and /(root). DiskDrake prompted, partition information is going to written to disk, then i pressed ok. After that, it pooped a box saying "Unable to read partition information, continue at your own risk" then it displayed a blank disk with no partition. Actually it screwed up my entire disk partition information by deleting partition table. Then i shutdown mandrake installation, and try to boot to win98. i couldn't able too, bios din't reconginze booting device, then i boot using 98 floppy and did fdisk on the harddisk, i was really surprised, only two partition were there on the disk, C: with 1MB and D with 4GB. and my entire hard disk got wiped out and i couldn't able to recover the data. Later i thought of partitioning harddisk using DiskDrake and install mandrake. I created 3 FAT32 partition of size 6000Gb, 6000GB,1GB, and in the remaining(8GB) i created swap, /boot and / linux partition, at this time too, i faced few problems with DiskDrake, it used to give error message saying "swap space need to be."(specifying exact error message). Finally somehow, i could able to format linux native partition and installation went through properly. I selected boot loader to reside on MBR. Then installation displayed "Installation completion" message, told to reboot the system, by removing the media from the CDRom. I did this, but system was unable to boot/find the linux boot image. No other way to go, i reinstalled the Linux, during this time also i need to re-create partitions(i was getting same old error messages) and however i managed to create boot disk this time and told to install boot loader in the first sector of boot partition and rebooted the system. Same thing, the system din't recognized the linux loader, however i could able to boot using boot disk which i had created during installation. Then i booted to win98, and did fdisk, surprisingly i could able to see only two partition even though i had created 3 FAT32 partition with DiskDrake. Primary partition C: of 6GB(this is correct) and Only one extended dos partition of 23GB D: but i had created two extended partition of 6GB and 10 GB. I need to know, why system is unable to load linux on startup? what is the problem with linuxloader?? have you guys seen this kind of DiskDrake behavior??? is this DiskDrake is a buggy software??? Can mandrake guys answer my questions?? Thanks Raj rolling on the floor :) this newbie place can be fun at times
[newbie] Apache/FTP question?
Basically the problem is whenI go to a subdirectory on my website(through a browser) unless I put a / on the end it will not load and say page cannot be found, how can I fix this? Also I am having a problem with anonymous FTP. I have the latest version of wu-ftpd installed, ls is in ~ftp/bin and all the other files are in their appropriate directories. Anonymous root is set to ~ftp/pub which is where I get transported to when I connect, but it does not list the directories or files within those directories, I can switch to them if I specify them directly, but it just wont list them! With real users it just takes them to their respective home directories and everything is fine... Please some help me with this, I don't know what to try next...
Re: [newbie] Not listing directories/files when connecting to FTP Anonymously.
What do you mean why? I want to set-up an FTP site to which people can connect and use, it probably is a security safeguard, but how do I get rid of it? - Original Message - From: "Slaine" [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 10, 2000 5:21 AM Subject: Re: [newbie] Not listing directories/files when connecting to FTP Anonymously. just wont list them!

[newbie] Anonymous FTP Problem
I have Wu-FTPd v 2.6.1 set-upunder Linux-Mandrake 7.2on my other machine. This is the problem: When I connect to the site as Anonymous I can't see any directories! The ftp user home is set under fpt/pub and I have several subdirectories under that. I can manually switch to a specific directory, but my client(CuteFTP) doesn't show them... The incoming directory is chmoded 1733 and the other are 2755. The files in the directories are also invisible to my client, which is correct for incoming, but not the others(apps, games, misc). BTW I am a newbie so don't laugh to hard... and any help is of course appreciated.
