Re: You must have Ncurses installed in order to use 'makemenuconfig'

Hi Breno, I've googled for it, and searched the debian-user lists' archive, and found nothing useful there, except for one page which refers to SUSE, and said: That's weird, the solution should have been in the archives. I'll go check.. Even then, I cannot find the ncurses-devel package in

Re: Kernel version 2.4

Hi Remon, Can anyone think of a solution? (I'm not familiar with recompiling kernels etc) Learn how to compile and deploy your own kernel. I've made a habit of making that the second thing I do on a newly installed box. Configuring sudo being #1. It's not hard and well documented. Plus,

Re: modem compatibilty

Hi John, Some months ago I bought a modem as a spare for the wife. Wow, impressive. No modem can replace *my* wife! ;-) The modem is an external one made by (?for) Microcomputer Research UK Ltd, uses a serial port and has a model No 1456 EVS. The main chip inside the case shows:-

Re: allow ftp but not ssh?

Hi, What I'm after is disabling ssh access for ftp users. I did it by adding AllowUsers users in sshd_conf. Any other ways to do it? Yup, hand out /bin/false as shell and add that to /etc/shells (perhaps depending on the ftp server in use? anyone for an ftp server with virtual users?)

Re: Samba permissions

Hi Curtis, Now, if I add a line valid users = user1, user2, user 3 then of course, just they can get in. But that doesn't seem to be the right solution. The right solution would be to permit only accounting group users into the folder. What am I doing wrong? Try valid users =

Re: SMTP standards : needs outgoing SMTP server be MX for my domain?

Hi, Actually, I see no good reason why outgoing mailer should be the same as MX. There is none, other than maybe spam protection. There are setups which for instance check whether any mail with a sender @yahoo.com actually is coming from a yahoo.com mail server. I see more good reasons for

Re: server monitoring program

Hi Kevin, I'm looking for a program that does simple testing to see if these sites are just up and running (i.e. as simple as a periodic ping). Almost needless to say, I'm not on the same network as these machines, so firewalls will be present on both my end and the server end. Haven't
