Re: [SLUG] TuxPaint
Tuxpaint and (the latest) GCompris are my childrens' favourites (son 5, daughter 3). Each had their own Debian GNU/Linux systems since 2 y.o. Just upgraded both boxes to Gnome 2.2. They can happily use their systems unaided. Only drawback the boxes can be a little slow (P90+64M, P100+64M)(below Gnome min spec.)

Re: [SLUG] Case sensitivity
How do I configure Apache to not be sensitive to case of urls/filenames? Or is that a bad idea? LoadModule speling_module ? Jeff -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
Re: [SLUG] read mail from exchange server
Dear All: This is my first post here. Here is my question: I have installed linux (redhat distro) on my machine at work. However, all emails have to go through an exchange server in my company. How do I get access to the mail server (i.e. both receive and post my mails)?? If the exchange server supports pop3/ldap: I use fetchmail (pop3) to bring mail back from the exchange server to the Linux box. I use mutt (Mail User Agent - MUA) to read the mail. I wrote a small perl script using Net::LDAP to lookup the exchange address book in mutt. I installed exim (Mail Transport Agent - MTA) with the smarthost pointing to the mail exchange server to send the mail. A collegue uses mozilla/netscape (a simpler setup), pointing to the exchange server. Mozilla/netscape can lookup the LDAP exchange address book.

Re: [SLUG] gdm displays
I have read as much as I could on X, gdm, etc. and still cannot figure out how to do it, if it can be done. 1) Update /etc/gdm/gdm.conf: Ensure in [xdmcp] section, Enable=1 2) Restart gdm on host machine 3) Check gdm access From within X, "gdmchooser" 4) On client machine either: a) outside of X : "X -query host" b) within X (requires Xnest ; for debian apt-get install xnest) "Xnest :1 -query" Jeff Ewing -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://slug.org.au/lists/listinfo/slug
Re: [SLUG] Use of DUMP for backup to remote server
I do have a /etc/hosts.equiv on the HP box and that works for rsh but may not be used by rexec try using .rhosts file in the root directory on the remote machine. Make the permissions 400 and the owner root. Not very secure but should work. Tape device on HP are usually writable by all, so you could be more secure and use a normal Id with an .rhosts file the normal users home directory. Make sure that user owns the file and the permissions are 400. ~ -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://slug.org.au/lists/listinfo/slug
