Re: [newbie] netscape files

You mean you can actually share your mailboxes across Windows and Linux? How 'd you do? I share the address books, and i works all right. If I could share the mailboxes, it 'd find it useful. > You could, but a shared directory would have to be on the win partition > to be read and written by b

Re: [newbie] netscape files

You could, but a shared directory would have to be on the win partition to be read and written by both win and linux, plus permissions changed on the win partition to allow nsmail to write. Possibly not worth it unless you are still using win a lot. Bill bascule wrote: > > i will try this > th

Re: [newbie] netscape files

Bill, I looked but didn't touch through the dos icon in my kde desktop and you seem to be right . Windows can be backed up that way too. I am most interested if my napster files can be imported. I don't see why not and am thrilled! Thanks. =michael=

Bill- could you be a bit more specific? I am unclear as to how you were able to import your netscape files from windows to mandrake and would love to learn more. -michael-

Re: [newbie] netscape files

Sorry, I missed this thread before. You CAN copy your windows netscape mail files across to your linux /nsmail directory. It's a simple copy/paste, any filename clashes can be renamed in the process, and they will show as new subfolders next time you open the mail window. I have just done this.

thanks for your replies, i have discovered that i could indeed export my address book in the ldif format and import it into linux netscape, also i copied my bookmark.htm file from win98 over to linux and copied it over bookmarks.html in my user .netscape directory (backing up the old one of course

Re: [newbie] netscape files

I believe you could save your address book, too. If not by copying the file itself, try exporting/importing it. (I myself transferred from MS Outlook to Netscape-Linux with the help of Yahoo! address backup service, a much longer route - and it worked) Cheers, /J. Em qua, 24 mai 2000, bascul

Actually I was going to try that. I have all my windows-netscape mail files archived and was going to try and import them into linux-netscape...what about deleting the .lock or .summary files and copying my old windows-netscape mail files into the .nsmail directory. When you start up Netscape mes

Re: [newbie] Netscape files

Well, I guess you could try it. You'll probally have to make sure all users have write/read access to mounted partitions, so make sure "umask=0" is located in the options section of /etc/fstab. That will let anyone write to that mounted partition. Once you get that done, you might be able to lin

[newbie] Netscape files

Hi all, I was wondering if it is possible in a dual boot system (linux, win98) to have Netscape for Linux share the user files with Netscape for windows, in a way of telling the linux version to look for the user directory in /mnt/dos/.../, effectively sharing mail, bookmarks, browser settings, a

[newbie] Netscape Files

Can anyone tell me which files in Netscape contain the "Personal Bookmarks"and the "Address Book?"I found "bookmark.html" it had everything except the "personal" ones. I justwant to back them up so as not to have to go through the *big* hassle ofredoing them if/when I have to do a reinstall!
