Re: Sparc Linux
FIRST of all: PLEASE do *not* simply reply to an existing thread and change the subject if you want to ask a new, unrelated question. It screws the threading for those people who are using a capable mail program, making it harder to follow things. PLEASE write a NEW message instead. THANKS! As for your problem: On Sun, Nov 17, 2002 at 09:44:03PM -0600, Christopher Henderson wrote: [...] I have a question concerning Sparc's. I own a Sparcclassic that has a 50 mhz CPU, 16 megs of RAM, and a 200 mg SCSI HD. 200mg? That's a very light hard drive - mine weigh a couple of hundred grams, typically... (SCNR - I know you meant MB and not 'mg') ;-) I plan on upgrading it to at least a 1 gig hard disk and probably maxing out the RAM (48 I believe). Maximum RAM in a Sparc Classic is 96MB regular and 128MB inofficially. The latter can be achieved by using two 32MB SIMMs in the first two sockets. [...] However, I saw this tidbit in the NetBSD sparc FAQ - Why is NetBSD so much faster than SparcLinux on sun4c (top) The memory management hardware on sun4c machines (SPARCstation 1, 1+, 2, IPC, IPX, SLC, ELC and clones) is not handled particularly well by Linux. Until Linux reworks their MMU code NetBSD will be very much faster on this hardware. I was curious if this is still true with newer kernels such as the late 2.2 series or even the 2.4 series. I believe that my Sparc is more or less an IPX repackaged and resold - so my box would be included. Actually, no, it wouldn't. A SparcStation Classic is basically the same as a SparcStation LX, though without on-board ISDN. The LX also has better audio and video. Both are sun4m, not sun4c. Hence, the above doesn't apply to your machine (though I myself still haven't found out whether the 2.4 kernel changed anything. 2.2 sure didn't - OpenBSD ran a lot better on my SparcStation 2 than RHL 6.2 did). As for the Linux: You can also try Aurora Linux, which is based on RHL 7.3. It's still pretty much beta, but it runs well on my SparcStation LX. See: http://auroralinux.org/ Also, have a look at Sun's website, as well as http://www.sunhelp.org and http://www.obsolyte.com for information about Sparcs in general.

mtx problems on Qualstar 4222

Behaviour is rather like the one described under bugs and limitations in the mtx manual page, i.e. it will sit there snapping the robot arm's claws around thin air trying to grab a tape that's not there. We've had no luck with the suggested workaround - 'mt offline' - however. We are simply unable to run the command without getting error messages. Has anyone successfully operated such a library?

Re: Returned e-mail
The message is quite simple...the mailboxes don't exist, so AOL is sending you a message to that effect. The real question is To what type of message did AOL have to respond? Chances are that someone sent spam either in the name of a user on your system (real or fake, it matters not), or through/from your system. If someone sent the crap with the From: faked to be from your system, there's nothing you can do about it. If someone sent the crap from/through your system, there certainly is. The full message, partially quoted below, will give you the clues you need...the bounce always includes the original message, usually as an attachment. Look at the headers of that message, look at the received from portions, and see if the initial message originated from or was ever touched by your system. If you were spam relayed by an outside party, take the necessary steps to lock downyour mail server so that it doesn't happen again. If it was sent by a user on your system, tie them to the rack, and draw and quarter them.

While it is theoretically possible to make relational databases extremely fast, it is usually not done. The reason people use relational databases is because the relational idea makes managing data, changing data schemas, and multiple applications very well. For example, PostgreSQL supports views, MySQL does not. This is very important if your database is going to be used by more than one application, or has a chance of changing in the future. PostgreSQL supports arbitrary types defined by the user, MySQL does not. PostgreSQL support _serializable_ transactions (the highest isolation level). I don't believe MySQL supports that level of transactions. PostgreSQL allows you to write functions in many languages. MySQL does not.

RE: using linux for microsoft exchange 5.0 mail server
The Ximian Connector for Exchange only works with Exchange 2000 and requires Outlook Web Access be enable on that server - http://www.ximian.com/products/connector/ If you would like to use the Exchange Global Address List, you should be able to use any mail client that can use LDAP to resolve names in the GAL. I've successfully used LDAP with Ximian Evolution and with Netscape Mail to resolve names in this fashion. I've only used Exchange 2000 and 5.5. I haven't dealt with Exchange 5.0, but I would venture to guess that it starts an LDAP service that you can use to grab names out of the GAL. Hope this helps.

SCSI related(?) kernel panic
This message is posted on behalf of an non-subscribed user. * Gentlemen, If you have a free moment sometime, would like to discuss your recommendations on finding out why my RH 7.3 (kernel 2.4.18-x) is executing kernel panics 1 or more times per day. The screen dump (to /dev/console) shows some cryptic stuff and names of some drivers that appear related to my SCSI card (2940 W/UW) and scsi device 4 (4 GB Barracuda drive). It is also saying that is panicked because the interrupt handler is not synching. I tried modifying syslog.conf to dump all kernel messages to a file (kern.* /var/log/kernel) But upon reboot, I all get in the file are the messages from the reboot...not helpful. I am/was thinking the drive is going bad, but upon umounting it last night, this morning still showed a kernel panic. I thought it was the disk because of the SCSI info, and the dumps seemed to happen almost every time I accessed the dirs/files on that disk and its single partition. All disks are running ext3 as the file system. Fsck is not discovering any badness on the drive (except upon reboots to recover from the nasty halt). I would love to print out the console screen right after the dump, but have not found it in any of the logs, and am not sure how to prevent overwriting the file from syslog. Do I need to build a debugging kernel and try to force a dump (all though I am still unsure what causes it).

In the beta releases, the detection is supposed to be better and more cases will be caught. Could you maybe explain how this would be implemented? A mailing list is based on the principle that everybody can reply to any message, so every reply is a reply to a message that has been there. Loop control is usually based on the principle that you don't reply to a reply to a message you sent by setting and checking a flag, but I don't see how that could be implemented here. Bye, Leonard. Loop detection and out-of-office are two completely different problems. I remember one email address that would simply redirect all email back to sender; which made it act like the mailing list was subscribed to itself - very nasty - that's what loop detection is for. To detect loops, an additional header is added to all outgoing messages, like: X-Loop: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Then the mailing list software rejects all incoming messages with this header. I don't know how mailman attempts to handle out-of-office, but majordomo simply scans the message headers for regex specified in config file.

From what I've read, it appears to depend on what you will do. If your system will be largely inquiry only, with very few updates (or perhaps reloaded from outside system), then mysql appears to do the job well (perhaps even better than postgresql). If you need a more dynamic system with many updates, then postgresql seems to be chosen more often. Your best bet might be to install another layer between your application and your database, then it is quite easy to switch databases - as long as your SQL is standard and database support the version of standard you are using.

Re: wine in general (my 2 cents)
I would distinguish between various engineering disciplines. In the world of electronics, there seems to be a strong trend towards Linux. Yes, you are right. I believe that is because electrical and electronic engineers are more fond to programming than people from other eng. fields. You also find interesting amounts of software for chemistry. Right now I am looking for process simulation software to simulate construction operations, and guess what... I haven't found really anything, yet. I just downloaded a software piece called DAKOTA, which I will try. I have tried StarCalc as spreadsheets for thermal calculations, for advanced finance/management calculations, and regular office tasks.

There are plenty of tools. My last contact with electronics was about two years ago, but I recall SPICE being an excellent analysis tool, and there was a graphical front end for X.

Until Linux reworks their MMU code NetBSD will be very much faster on this hardware. I was curious if this is still true with newer kernels such as the late 2.2 series or even the 2.4 series. I believe that my Sparc is more or less an IPX repackaged and resold - so my box would be included. Actually, no, it wouldn't. A SparcStation Classic is basically the same as a SparcStation LX, though without on-board ISDN. The LX also has better audio and video. Both are sun4m, not sun4c. Hence, the above doesn't apply to your machine (though I myself still haven't found out whether the 2.4 kernel changed anything. 2.2 sure didn't - OpenBSD ran a lot better on my SparcStation 2 than RHL 6.2 did). Oh? When I bought my machine on eBay it was advertised as being a Sun IPX - the guy claimed that the Sparcclassic was the same thing. Interesting. Well, could I run X-Windows on my machine given a larger HD and maxed out RAM? Its not really important if I can or not, just curious. As for the Linux: You can also try Aurora Linux, which is based on RHL 7.3. It's still pretty much beta, but it runs well on my SparcStation LX.

RE: Mysql or Postgresql
Yes it is. SAP can be used on numerous database systems. Most of their clients use Oracle, but if their client doesn't already have a database architecture, they can use SAP DB.

RE: Mysql or Postgresql
yep it used to be adabas, but they got bought by SAP. i use sapdb here and am quite happy about it. and my windows-colleages love the apps coming with sapdb (there are a lot of windows-apps for administering the databases, backups, ...). Do you know if there are any books on SAP DB? I've been wanting to learn more. The docs are decent, but I was hoping for third-pary books as well, but haven't found any.

Re: Mysql or Postgresql
i've been a fan of mysql as of late because it's simple and fast. AND the documentation is great. postgres is the opposite of all of the above. ctually, the 7.x series of Postgres is quite fast. Using Postgres on an RH system is as easy as service postgresql start; su postgres - createuser; createdb Then use psql/DBD::Pg/whatever you like. I love Postgres because it is really simple to get started in, but has a very rich environment. A lot like Python in that respect.

Re: Running httpd (apache) From xinetd
Standalone. Running it through xinetd means that the daemon has to be started *each* time a connection is requested. Running standalone, the running daemon will initiate additional forks or threads of itself, and can do it much quicker than if an instance has to be started by xinetd.

Re: Sparc Linux
Maximum RAM in a Sparc Classic is 96MB regular and 128MB inofficially. The latter can be achieved by using two 32MB SIMMs in the first two sockets. Cool - much more then originally thought. Thnx. Btw, any sites you could point me at that would sell RAM for such an old machine? Thnx again. Ebay's probably your best bet. Oh? When I bought my machine on eBay it was advertised as being a Sun IPX - the guy claimed that the Sparcclassic was the same thing. The SPARCclassic is definitely not an IPX. See faqaboss.sunhelp.org for details. Basically, they're both in a lunchbox chassis, so that's what's similar. Interesting. Well, could I run X-Windows on my machine given a larger HD and maxed out RAM? Its not really important if I can or not, just curious. The SPARCclassic has an onboard CG3. Pretty sucky. Max out your ram and use a light-weight windowmanager like fvwm or blackbox, but even still, it probably wouldn't be a pleasant experience. As for the Linux: You can also try Aurora Linux, which is based on RHL 7.3. It's still pretty much beta, but it runs well on my SparcStation LX. See: http://auroralinux.org/ You'll probably have better luck with OpenBSD or NetBSD. Also, have a look at Sun's website, as well as http://www.sunhelp.org and http://www.obsolyte.com for information about Sparcs in general. faqaboss.sunhelp.org and sunhelp and obsolyte are all tremendously cool resources for sparc info. --Matt -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Here is my /etc/procmail, with the spamassassin call near the top: PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin MAILDIR=$HOME/mail SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail LOGFILE=/var/log/procmail VERBOSE=ON DROPPRIVS=yes :0fw --- * 256000 --- | spamassassin --- DROPPRIVS=yes :0: * ^X-Spam Status: Yes spam :0: * ^Subject: .*Test spam :0: * ^Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] RedHat # Delete mail from 21cn.com :0 * ^From:.*21cn.com /dev/null :0: * ^Subject: .*out of (the )?office spam * Here's the output from /var/log/procmail in response to having the spamassassin test enabled: procmail: [24448] Mon Nov 18 19:57:13 2002 procmail: Match on 256000 procmail: Executing spamassassin procmail: [24448] Mon Nov 18 19:57:19 2002 procmail: No match on ^X-Spam Status: Yes procmail: No match on ^Subject: .*Test procmail: No match on ^Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] procmail: No match on ^From:.*21cn.com procmail: No match on ^Subject: .*out of (the )?office procmail: Assigning PATH=/home/balpert/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/lo$ procmail: Locking /var/spool/mail/balpert.lock procmail: Assigning LASTFOLDER=/var/spool/mail/balpert procmail: Opening /var/spool/mail/balpert procmail: Acquiring kernel-lock procmail: Unlocking /var/spool/mail/balpert.lock procmail: Notified comsat: balpert@5742456:/var/spool/mail/balpert Folder: /var/spool/mail/balpert 1 And so, obviously what is happening is that SA is not properly returning to the procmailrc processing rules. Why would this be? Is there an option somewhere in SA configuration where it must be told to return and continue processing rules? I wouldn't think so, but who the heck knows.. Note again that, without the three SA lines in my /etc/procmailrc, rules are evaluated and executed completely correctly. It is only when SA is called as above that the procmailrc conditions do not get tested. Any hints, much appreciated1 Thanks to all for the gracious help so far.

System restore
I am trying to restore my root filesystem, that I have restored to a secondary drive. I would like to use the restored file system as my root file system so that I can copy everything to the partiotion that is normaly my root file system. I have tried modifing grub to set the root file system of /dev/hdb1 and I keep getting a kernel panic, I have tried ro root=/dev/hdb2=/ and ro root=/dev/hdb2 with no success. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

RE: Procmail processing problem
Ok, procmail problem solved. Maybe this will help someone else. When running procmail system-wide, with the spamd/spamc pair, the call to spamassassin in /etc/procmailrc is: :0fw * 256000 | spamc-- ..instead of | spamassassin Poof, that's it. Evidently, spamassassin invokes a single-user modality which won't branch back to procmailrc, whereas spamc, which works directly with the spamd daemon, does. Again, thanks to all, and I hope somebody else learned something from this.

Printing System
Hi! I would like to know which printing system is the best? And if you can explain me why, I will be more happy. I heard about CUPS and LPR. I will install RH 8.0 and I ask me the best to install and use.

Re: Procmail processing problem
It's the filesize. Blank message, with only Test in the subject line, nothing in the body. All entries in my /var/log/procmail file contain such a number. I didn't include the number before because of line-wrapping problems. FWIW, the actual spam flag that works right here is X-Spam-Flag: YES. Here's the log snippet that caught a and disposed of a test spam message I created and sent to myself: procmail: [26899] Mon Nov 18 21:05:10 2002 procmail: Match on 256000 procmail: Executing spamc procmail: Match on ^X-Spam-Flag: YES procmail: Locking spam.lock procmail: Assigning LASTFOLDER=spam procmail: Opening spam procmail: Acquiring kernel-lock procmail: Unlocking spam.lock procmail: Notified comsat: balpert@0:/home/balpert/mail/spam From [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Nov 18 21:05:09 2002 Subject: [SPAM] Low-rate mortgage offer!!!
