I have downloaded and installed Mandrake7.2, but could not manage to make
the php tags work.

 rpm -qa | grep php
php-4.0.3pl1-1mdk

shows me that php4 is installed. What may be the reason?

thnx

When I go to 127.0.0.1 or localhost it takes me to my homepage which apache
is serving. When I add the port number 1 it takes me to the same
place...  I am using NS 6. Is there a different way to tell it what port to
connect to?

 For 7.1 or 7.2:
 Click on DrakConf

 click on  the traffic light to make sure webmin is present and running,
and
 that postfix is present and running or sendmail is present and running and
 NOT both.  (the running application will be called "sendmail" by the rest
of
 the system)

 If these are not present or running, then load and initiate (especially
 webmin)

 Once you have Webmin up and running, fire up Netscape or Konqueror if you
 have it and goto this URL

 http://127.0.0.1:1

 And all the setup parameters will be yours, graphically, with help under
many
 of the names, especially for postfix, which I highly recommend over
sendmail
 for all but the most rugged and demanding applications, and even for those
if
 security is a concern.

I am at a loss, in Drake 7.1 and 7.2 my system completely locks up when
I try to play any kind of sound. Be it an mp3 or a wav, in any player. I
have tried all I know. I miss my mp3's man. This is week 4 w/o sound. If
anyone has ANY ideas, please let me know. This is really starting to get
to me.


Eagerly awaiting your responses,

Hi All,

As I'm sure you all know I'm fairly new to Linux and I have a couple of
simple questions.

First - I've installed Mandrake 7.1 on a compaq ML370 using the high
security option.  The only thing I cannot do is telnet to the server from a
different machine and log in as root, it establishes connection, but I
cannot log in as root.  I've checked /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny
and they allow everything in (otherwise I could not connect...), and I've
looked at the files in /etc/security and they seem to be fine.  All of the
lines in /etc/security/access.conf are commented out, so I assume that root
should be allowed to telnet in.  I must be missing something very basic!

Second - the above server is used as a device server for a tape drive for
our backup system, but when I installed Mandrake 7.1 the SCSI tape utilities
(mt, stinint...) were not installed and nor were the man pages.  Does
anybody know what rpm they're in?

Thanks in advance!

Alan
