RE: [newbie] is this list appropriate for setting up a mailserveron9.0?
SpamAssassin is a mail filter to identify spam. Using its rule base, it uses a wide range of heuristic tests on mail headers and body text to identify spam, also known as unsolicited commercial email. http://www.spamassassin.org/ What is that?

[newbie] bootp DHCP ISSUES
I have a Windows 2000 DHCP server that is serving Linux boxes (Mandrake 8.0) and I have DHCP configured to accept both DHCP and BOOTP. The Linux boxes are using something called pump on the clients which utilizes DHCP and BOOTP, I think. The Linux boxes get a lease time of just 12hours every time, all the time no matter what. Anyway does anyone have any idea's has what is going on? Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
RE: [newbie] MSN Broadband
here is my setup. I have Bellsouth.net for DSL service. They provided me with a Ethernet DSL Modem. this is then plugged into a Netscreen 5XP Firewall/Router. Then that is plugged into a 8 Port SMC Switch. Plugged into that are 4 Windows PC's and 2 Linux Boxes (one RH and one Mandrake) and one Sun Sparc 20 Running Solaris. Basically if you have an Ethernet card in each machine when you install the OS, provided nothing goes wrong during the install and you are connected to the hub/router which is connected to the DSL modem, you should be up and running right after the install. Now keep in mind that this is a kind of unsecured machine as it would not have any patches applied but you should be able to send email and surf the net at leisure. My XP machine is configured to use TCP/IP and when I boot it up and logon to it as long as the ethernet cable is plugged in it will connect to the internet. My router is configured with the logon credentials required for my ISP which is PPPoE. I am also using KDE and I didn't have to configure anything once I had installed Mandrake or Redhat. If you are using PPPoE as the connection type on your XP machine you might have to disable that and just configure it to use TCP/IP. then it should be great. If you have nothing to lose or time to waste. Just go get a DSL Router (Cheap one is Lynksys) I have one of these for a backup works great in my opinion. You should also have a Ethernet DSL modem provided by ISP. Then plug in modem and router. Plug in HUB if necessary. Plug in pc's. Turn on modem. Turn on Router once modem is initialized. Turn on pc. ( I used windows to configure router ). Configure router with logon credentials. Then reinstall OS on each machine while plugged in and they should work right after install. Hope this helps it is a little rough around the edges but it is what I did. mike -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2002 1:08 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] MSN Broadband And then I'll be able to have both of my computers, (my Windoze desktop, and my now Linux Laptop use the same connection? How exactly, (in newbie speak) would I accomplish that. I need info from where to go once I'm logged onto my system, (I'm using KDE) to what the settings would be. I can't get any info out of MSN Support. Also, would I have to change anything on my WinXP pc? Quoting David Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED]: You need both. The router sits behind the modem and will handle the log-on efforts for your DSL connection. Then the computers you plug into the other end of the routr will be able to use the DSL connection normally without using the MSN explorer P.O.S.

Quoting David Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED]: You don't need the MSN exporer garbage. You should configure your gateway router to supply the username/password to the DSL service, then all machines behind (in your private network) can use the DSL service as normal. I have accomplished this feat on a friends network without problem. If you don't have a broadband router, you'll need one. Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

RE: [newbie] Ten Things Wrong with Linux
I am fairly new to linux, I have only been using it for 2 months now and that is not even an everyday thing. It's more like a weekend thing. Anyway I find this article a bunch of crap. There are tons of web browers that work great with linux, even Konq does a good job #2 is not an issue. I have had the power go out at least 5 times and have never had this problem on boot up, and I also have a SPARC20 with Solaris on it -- have had this issue in Solaris but not linux #3. Printing can't argue here as I don't have a printer hooked up to my linux box, I might have to do this though to see what the fuss is. #4. I think the KDE and Gnome menus are very self explanatory, granted they could be laid out a little better but for me the are self explanatory -- catagories like Internet, Office, Toys, Graphics, Games, etc.. self explantory if you ask me. #5. NOw I don't have this problem on my machine (2 x 1GH P3, 784 MB Ram, GeForce 2 64MB video card running Nvidia drivers for Linux) #6. I have never had a problem with this, I thought the man page for ps was helpful #7. I have no need for this -- not an issue here #8. Sound ah a good issue to discuss, as I haven't bothered to configure my sound card, I assume it is already configured during the install (I could be wrong) but I don't have any speakers to hook up to it to test it out. Damn oh well I guess I am not concerned with this at this point (maybe when I get a real job and make some money I can buy speakers.) #9. Type it right the first time -- end of story #10. I have a 21 inch standard monitor -- I run at 1280 x 1024 nuff said anything under this is useless.

I don't agree with the argument in 1, which carries the danger of falling into the the 'designed for Internet Explorer' trap; the more 'best browsers' the better. (And 'hurt the user experience' makes me reach for the blue pencil :) ii. 4 is no issue with Mandrake; the 'What to do?' menu item is excellent and a simple solution. iii. I wonder what sort of machine he's using as 5 is not visible here (1GHz PIII, 256MB RAM, built-in i815 graphics) iv. 9 is resolved by nedit, which he evidently isn't aware of. v. 10, although a crowd-puller when implemented, is becoming irrelevant with the advent of flat panel displays; this one runs at 1280x1024 (24-bit colour) and there's _no point_ running at any other resolution. However, 3 and 8 together seem to form about half of the queries to this list, although the author seems to be ignorant of the difficulties caused by forced reverse-engineering.
