Qmail

2004-12-20 Thread Jacob S
Is anyone successfully using qmail on a 64bit Sun, or more specifically, a Sun Ultra 10? I've tried both netqmail and qmailrocks.org. I can't get smtp-auth to work in netqmail and qmailrocks fills my logfiles with "free(): invalid pointer 0xe910!" errors. Also doing things like enabling queue-

Memory Testing?

2004-11-09 Thread Jacob S
Hello list, I've got a server that's dropping some mail, in addition to putting some strange error messages in the logs (not directly related to the dropped mail). Most references I can find to this error message indicate it's caused by bad ram, so I wanted to test the memory in my Sun Ultra 10,

Graphics Card Processing?

2004-08-24 Thread Jacob S.
This may sound crazy, but it's something I've been wondering about, so I thought I would ask. I remember reading a while back about a university that built a cluster of Sony Playstation 2s, but instead of doing the main processing work with the CPUs, they used the processors on the graphics cards.

Still-OT: nvram and firmware passwords

2004-08-16 Thread Jacob S.
Well, I've googled, googled the list archives and searched the Sun forums to little avail. Does anyone have any tips for bypassing the nvram firmware password, short of replacing the nvram module? I'm learning (the hard way) what I should've looked for before jumping on a "good" deal. :-) TIA, J

Semi-OT: Sun Ultra 10 & Serial Consoles

2004-08-12 Thread Jacob S.
I must admit, I've never used a Sun before. But, I recently acquired an Ultra 10. Now I'm trying to access it via a serial console program from an x86, using a null modem cable, so I can start installing Debian on it. The Sun appears to have 2 serial ports; one a 25 pin marked A and the other a 19
