I am sorry guys to interrupt your drama club, but this is a plug discuss
group, no politics or religion here, but if you like this topic so much, you
may create a discuss group.

you know one email is ok, but getting all this crap that will take you
nowhere is no nice for nobody.

Just let it be, and go back to LINUX

thank you guys, I sorry to get in your way

  Hi Matthew

 your file looks ok, so far, you need to check your fechmail config,
 because
 if is working, but it is not calling procmail. you need something like

 mda /usr/bin/procmail -m /directory/to/procmail.conf


 I tried that about a week ago when I was attempting to use an alternate
 .procmailrc file and it was a disaster. I don't have the error message handy
 as it's on my laptop which is at Red7 for repair.



 check here for reference

 The reference in the above site to CORRECTHOME confuses me. Running a
 search on it turns up nothing that tells me *how it works.

Re: Network Monitoring

2010-04-15 Thread wta
How many computer do you have on your network, are you using a linux box to
bandwidth feed those computer or a router, if is the second(router)what
brand is it?

anyone of those will be good, the only problem is that they need to be
between those computer in order to learn the bandwidth usage on your
network, if you have a small network, let said about 25 computers, mean that
you have a router(linksys,Netgear, etc),  well check which model it is, and
download DD-WRT firmware and upload to your router, you will gain speed on
your network, plus the ability to monitoring your network and a very simple
way, now if you have more than 25 computers,way more than 50, then you go
for those app. but in that case, you will need to load a computer with 2
network card, and everything has to go trough the box

 Hello Hello,

 I'm looking for a program or something that can monitor my network as a

 that I could install on a linux box, plug it into the network and stick it
 in a corner and check it a week later would be ideal. All the tools I've
 tried only tell me what the machine itself is consuming, not other things on
 the network. Any recommendations out there?

Re: Network Monitoring

2010-04-15 Thread wta
Well I guessing that you are using citrix desktop then, and let said that
you are using more than one database or other client/server app, still' you
are using internet to put everything on one network, the two isdn lines are
slow by default, try to get something better for those locations, one thing
that you can do, is create a* High-Availability* *cluster*, and use those
servers with a a gigabyte card and the main switch with a gigabyte input,
that will gave more bandwidth and better client/server response, and, you
need as an addition to distribute better your bandwidth for those locations.
and take a look to your firewalls, and use IPSec/vpn tunnel  compression (
WAN load balancing) beside that it is not much that you can do, that make
better your internal network(LAN)
I forgot if you have a database use different server for that and check your
routers if is possible to add compression hardware that will speed inter
locations access too, but with tunnel compression on the traffic
manager(internet gateway, assuming that is a computer) will do that too.

Check for some ideas here about High-availability
http://www.howtoforge.com/howtos/high-availability

i hope that you find a solution. or may someone can input better idea

 I guess I should have been more specific. I have an internet gateway with a
 bandwidth monitoring program on it. I am not concerned with internet traffic
 as it is near 0 ! However, I have several large applications that manage to
 really chew up some bandwidth, namely citrix... I have over 200 machines
 spread across 4 locations on 6 T1's and 2 128K ISDN lines. At certain times
 through the day our network as a whole will get sluggish and I'm trying to
 figure out why. It is not internet traffic.

 This is for curiosity,  I'm not presently trying to implement Windows

 would a Linux PDC emulate Active Directory Services?  Do you still need

yes you're able to use Samba as a PDC, and use LDAP(or openLDAP) as back-end
auth, even work with windows 7,
on howtoforge.com will show you hot to setup one, it is with Centos 5.x but,
wit a little modification work with any distro,
good luck
