Take a look in /etc/cron.daily -- that is everything that is being run on a
daily basis, and probably the source of virtually every e-mail you're getting.

samba, nfs, appletalk, ftp, http, scp, sftp all come immediately to mind --
it all depends on who you want to share it to, between what operating
systems, and what it is that you wish to share.

Web
to an IP on your local network.
To set all this up, you'd have to learn bind's syntax for what it calls
'zone' files.

Want to buy your Pack or Services from

Of course, in all cases, I was never technically 'staff' per-se,
(especially for the general / cs accounts), since I was (and still am) a
'volunteer' out there.

from any Mandrake ftp mirror, or from kernel.org if you feel adventurous
and want to compile your own kernel.

Julian,
It must be related to what security setting you use. On both a Mandrake
7.2 and an 8.1 box, I have a cdrom group listed.

My question now is what version of Mandrake are you using? If you are
using 8.1, the dependencies are a lot different than 7.x (ie, a 7.x rpm
won't work properly on 8.x, and a 8.x rpm will give off all kinds of errors
on a 7.x box)

Well surgery on / is very difficult, because you cannot unmount it from
a running system. You have several options...
Method A:
If /usr is a subdirectory of / instead of a separately mounted
partition, you can move that to the second disk if there is room--Here's
how:
1. Put in your second
Which version of Windows is it from? If it is from Windows 2000 / XP, it
won't mount because it uses a newer NTFS than is supported by the current
kernel release (I think they support up to NTFS 4 read, and (very
experimental) write).

Gerald,
This is actually further restricted, because user(s) mounting / umounting
the CDROM must be in the 'cdrom' group. This also applies to the floppy.
In order to mount / umount the floppy drive, you must be in the floppy group.

/etc/hosts.deny denied localhost connections
Actually, that was everything except for 'localhost' connections, since the
line you posted was 'ALL:ALL except localhost:DENY'
