When one gives any rpm command envolving these downloaded files, rpm responds by coming back to a prompt with no output. eg. rpm -ihv rhn_register*rpm just comes back to a prompt without any output. rpm -qip rhn_register*rpm does the same. Please help? Tell him he should get the binary rpms, NOT the *.src.rpm packages. And of course, the downloaded packages must be in the current directory when rpm -ivh rhn_register*rpm is run upon them. Else you would also get back to the prompt without any output.

Basically I want search for key terms only after stripping the HTML from the

The sed trick strips out all html-like tags. Cool. Except I'm trying to
figure out a way to un-do the stripping if the words I'm looking for isn't
in the body of the message after all. So far the stripped message gets
delivered to the mailbox regardless.
I need to do something like this:
preserve_copy_of_message_here
:0fwb
| sed -e :a -e 's/[^]*//g;//N;//ba'
:0B
* (v'agra)
{
OBSCENE_=adult-trap

if OBSCENE is set, then do nothing cause message went to /dev/null, else
send the original message to the mailbox.
Any ideas?
Not a straight-forward implementation, just an idea.
A problem certainly is that you modify the message right away. One
technique to avoid that is to pass the message text to a subshell for
analyzation, insert a custom header (e.g. X-Procmail: some-flag-here)
into the original message and pass that one back to procmail. All
recipes are processed again, and you can check the custom header on
what to do with the message. Similar to the following unchecked
recipes:
# Pass 1. Analyze the message body of message which don't contain
# an X-Procmail header. Set the X-Procmail header, then return the
# complete message to procmail.
:0
* ! ^X-Procmail:.*
{
SPAM_FLAG=$(sed -e '1,/^$/ d' | your-de-html-analyzer-here)
:0HB
| formail -A X-Procmail: $SPAM_FLAG -s procmail
}
# Pass 2. Process messages which have an X-Procmail header.
:0
* ^X-Procmail: OBSCENE
/dev/null
Of course, pass 2 can contain nested recipes, too.

As you can read at http://fedora.redhat.com it might be that a Fedora Extras RHN channel will also be an option. Would make sense to make available at RHN as much good stuff as possible. Up2date itself already supports apt/yum repositories. An enhanced redhat-config-packages tool is planned (as one can read in the installer screens). There are no plans to replace up2date with apt-rpm or yum. (Where did you hear about such plans? Any quote available?) But those alternative package utilities will be helpful for building and necessary for accessing 3rd party repositories (even though up2date supports apt/yum, too). That's why yum has been added to the distribution already. The overall tone of the discussion does not seem consistent with Fedora being a redhat linux equivalent product. I still fail to see what this has to do with the subject line and the quoted message. There are concerns that the planned product life cycle of Fedora Core (see http://fedora.redhat.com) is not enough. Yet it remains to be seen whether the community won't support the product for a longer period. There are concerns that Fedora Core -- compared with Red Hat Linux -- will move closer to the bleeding edge and result in a less stable distribution. Most of this is speculation. Some of the documentation suggests that the modified update strategy will result in more bug-fix updates (in form of new packages) compared with the Red Hat Linux (which has been seeing mostly back-ported security fixes). This can also turn out to be a good thing. If that is the case, then one might want to start a serious look for a replacement. But there have been several related discussions already on the fedora-* lists. Why take this to other lists in form of a confusing reply? I need a stable 12-18 month release supported by something like up2date. It use will not be in a production environment, but it is not intended to be bleeding edge either. Some have suggested that we wait to see what develops. The exchange, however, seemed to imply that waiting might not be a good strategy. I think you've misunderstood that exchange completely. It explains that so-called dist-upgrades with apt-get, yum or up2date have not been a supported upgrade path and are unlikely to be taken into consideration. Hence if such a dist-upgrade fails for you, it's your problem (apart from that, there won't be any phone/web based support from Red Hat for Fedora Core

In particular, the sixth argument (the target user) must not be included. /bin/sh: line 1: root: command not found This is what I have in the crontab file(when I type crontab -e after logging in as dislam on the server) 10 7 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.special 02 6 16 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.specialMonthly 02 22 * * 6 root run-parts /etc/cron.specialWeekly Run crontab -e and drop the root from all three lines. - -- -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/X0zu0iMVcrivHFQRApYOAJ9xNRmdN7UDZY+5/p5OjxTUyAMnQACfeCpz eJSwwRNpNntJlRizzBvPcXg= =6xD1 -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Re: strange email behavior
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 On Mon, 8 Sep 2003 18:03:56 -1000, Marc Adler wrote: Specifying a custom MDA such as in your case is dangerous. For instance, if your disk is full, procmail has no way to bounce a message. You would lose mail. Additionally, you override the default delivery mechanism (local sendmail) and hence lose the target user marc setting. Since you run fetchmail as root, formail and procmail process the messages for root. As I've recommended earlier, run fetchmail manually to debug your config file. Unless it works, don't even consider running it in daemon mode. You probably need to add procmail option -d marc if you insist on using procmail as the MDA. As a side-note: if at all, I would move the formail digest-split into marc's ~/.procmailrc rule file. I understand about 50% of that explanation. (Did someone say newbie?) I found this recipe file on the web and used it because it works if I start fetchmail up manually. The problems started after trying to implement the startup script. Now that I look at it closely, I don't even know what formail is. I want to keep using procmail, because it does such a good job of sorting my messages. I suppose it's just fortuitous that my ~/.procmailrc file works at all, thanks to this random file I found on the web. Is there a way to change this recipe file to use procmail without the problems you mentioned (overriding the is marc, etc.)? Yes, the answer is in my previous reply. Adding -d marc as options to /usr/bin/procmail should fix it. Nevertheless, the rest of what is written above, applies. Let me rephrase. By default, fetchmail passes retrieved mail to the sendmail server on localhost. By doing that, sendmail takes over the final transfer and can also handle delivery errors gracefully. On the contrary, in your fetchmail config file, you override the default delivery style and specify a mail delivery agent (procmail) to be used directly. When procmail fails to store the message, it has no means to return/resubmit the message to the mail system. formail (read man formail) is a mail re-formatting utility. In your config file it is used to split digest messages into individual mails (before passing them to procmail which would deliver them to your mailbox). One would run formail in $HOME/.procmailrc and not in a fetchmail config file. - -- -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/XZrZ0iMVcrivHFQRAi78AJ9Z5x5tIbjBrszub8nfyzzhGHTrWwCdEXwr ckni75PiUNJ05wPRD91+ESg= =Y8y7 -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Perhaps you may have been including the version number of the

# Try to query the package tcpdump:

tcpdump-3.7.2-1
# Now, to remove the package, do not include the version part:
Sometimes you do need to include the version part, e.g. upon erasing a
specific kernel. Actually, including the version number does no harm
whatsoever.
The usual mistake done by newbies is to specify the package _file
name_ instead of the package name.
When the package name is not part of the package file name, instead of
searching the package name in rpm -qa --last |less, you can query
the file if you still have it, e.g. like this
rpm -qp foo-1.0-1.i386.rpm --qf %{name}\n
to print the internal package name.

Redirect the output to /dev/null Cron uses /bin/sh as its shell so your redirection would look like this fetchmail /dev/null That redirects stdout as well as stderr to /dev/null. Read the man page for bash and look for REDIRECTION for an explanation. That way you would lose any error output from fetchmail which is most likely not what you would like. Instead, run fetchmail in daemon mode triggered from a cron job. That is, create a cron job that starts fetchmail in daemon mode once a day or several times a day to make sure that after a reboot your user's fetchmail daemon will be started again. For that cron job, feel free to redirect stdout/stderr to /dev/null.

Just out of curiousity, what do you get when you gzip such a huge file, transfer it to another machine and gunzip it? Sorry to take so long to respond. Didn't have another Linux machine at hand, so I gzipped it (took all of six seconds) and transferred the compressed file (down from 1.18GB to an expected 53MB) to another drive. Gunzipping the file resulted again in a 1.18GB file. Color me baffled. Okay. What else can you report about the integrity of the WAV files? When you load them into a somewhat capable audio player, is the displayed playtime correct? In that case, the internal file size in the WAV header would be correct.

Paiz wrote: I could not open the file with khexedit, since it complained about insufficient memory (I have only 256MB of RAM in this machine). But the theory of it actually having spaces or zeroes at the end does not seem logical: what on God's green Earth would tack on 1GB of zeroes at the end, rsync and if so, why does ls -sh report the file size correctly? ls -sh is like du -h and reports disk usage in blocks. If this space was indeed being used, then 63GB would have _actually_ expanded to 1.6TB, instead of just _apparently_ having done so. But that is impossible because your disk is not that big. So, it could still be sparse blocks (or similar symptoms) at the _end_ of a file. You don't hear that, when the music player relies on the WAV length as found in the WAV file header. You would only hear the effect of sparse blocks in the beginning of the file, where empty blocks would be mixed into the WAV stream. And then it wouldn't fit on the 120GB disk, whereas df -m shows the expected 45GB free and I just moved 10GB to that drive as a test with no problems. AFAICS, that 1TB discrepancy between listings does seem to be a phantom... but from what, how, why, and how to fix it? I have no idea how to even start looking for this one, but while you guys attempt to help me, is there perhaps some docs I should be reading at the same time?
