Hello,
I am having some problems.
1. I can't seem to get my mail anymore. When I start Pine, I get the
following error: "Can't open mailbox lock. Access is readonly." And
when I check my log file when I use POP, I get the following: "Jan 31
20:03:05 apple ipop3d[364]: Mailbox lock file /tmp/.305.6f92 open
failure : Permission denied"
2. I installed Leafnode today, and keep getting the following error
in my log files: "Jan 31 19:04:18 apple leafnode[4452]: config: server
is news.swbell.net
Jan 31 19:04:18 apple leafnode[4452]: config: server is

Jan 31 19:04:18 apple leafnode[4452]: Groupinfo file possibly
truncated or damag
ed: -h 0 1 0 -x-"
3. And when I try to run TIN, I get the following error: "[jeff@apple

I am running RedHat Linux 5.2 with the 2.0.36 kernel. Does anybody
have any ideas to the above problems. Any help would be very
appreciated.
Thanks,

You could do it with a loop, e.g.
printf ("%s ", $2);
for (i = 6; i <= NF; i++)
printf ("%s ", $i);
printf ("%s\n", $3);
If the 6th field always starts in the same column you could
do a substring of $0 (i.e. print $2, substr($0, pos), $3)

This is a new phenomenon for me. I start netscape, and it runs -
somewhere - but it never materializes on the desktop. Not until I dial
up does it show up on as a window. I'm not using diald, if that makes a
difference. This is a real pain in the butt. If I just want to view an
html file via netscape, it seems I must dial up first. Can anyone help
me here?

Or, more simply, www.xfce.org
I have to agree that the single most wonderful thing you can do for
yourself if you have installed RHL on a system, with its massive and
meaningless fvwmxxx thing installed, is to get and install XFCE, as I
recently did. It's like night and day...

ncftp can do recursive "gets." From the man page:
Command-line retrieve options:
-C : Force continuation (reget).
-f : Force overwrite.
-G : Don't use wildcard matching.
-R : Recursive. Useful for fetching whole
directories.
-n X : Get selected files only if X days old or
newer.

Subject: Mounting a second drive
Date: Sun, 31 Jan 1999 22:00:14 -0700
Adding a second IDE hard drive to your system
=============================================
1) The physical mount.
Copy down the specs from the label on the drive.
Make sure it's jumpered as "slave".
Mount the drive in a spare drive bay, securing it with several screws.
Attach an IDE cable from the IDE port on the motherboard.
2) Update the BIOS with the info for the new drive.
It may autodetect, but don't count on it. Check the BIOS settings to make
certain. Setting the 'LBA' option not necessary.
3) Partitioning.
Boot up Linux and partition the new drive:
As root, fdisk /dev/hdb.
[primary partition, Linux native]
4) Format the new drive.
mke2fs -cv /dev/hdb1
[verbose output and check for bad blocks]
5) Create a mount point.
Decide where you will be mounting it and create a mount point.
For example, if you will mount it as /mnt/drive2, as root,
cd /mnt
mkdir drive2
chmod 777 drive 2 [makes the new drive accessible to ordinary users.]
6) Testing.
As root, mount -t ext2 /dev/hdb1 /mnt/drive2.
If no error messages, cd /mnt/drive2, and try creating a directory and
writing a couple of files.
If it works, hurray!
Continue to the final steps.
7) Modify /etc/fstab.
Add the following line to /etc/fstab:
/dev/hdb1 /mnt/drive2 ext2 defaults 1 1
8) Reboot and see if the new drive automounts.
The Hard-Disk-Upgrade miniHOWTO
(http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP/HOWTO/mini/Hard-Disk-Upgrade.html), by
Yves Bellefeuille contains much of the above info, but in a somewhat
different context.
They said, "You have a blue guitar,
You do not play things as they are."
The man replied, "Things as they are
Are changed upon the blue guitar."

When booting recently, I got the following error message:
"/dev/blah has reached maximal mount count. check forced" (obviously, it
wasn't /dev/blah, but you get the idea).
Now, I know what caused the error. I mistyped the partition number of a
mount I had added, adding the extended partition, instead of the logical one
inside of it. Fixed it, no problem.
But, what does it mean to reach a maximal mount count? I simply would like
to know for my own edification.

You should learn something about your OS. Ever since Windows 95 and NT 4.0,
they've been able to dynamically resize the swap file, and it *does* get
fragmented, especially the NTFS/swap file combo. The POS defragger that ships
with 95 can't defrag the swap file, but the first Norton's defrag for 95
could, and has ever since.
The prior poster didn't give the entire scoop, however, on *why* there is such
a performance advantage of having a partition vice file. Having a partition
eliminates going through a service layer in the kernel, since it is much
closer to accessing a raw device, instead of having to pay attention to a file
system.
Regardless, Linux can do both. NT/95 can do. . . only the slower.

Subject: Mount point won't disappear?
Date: Sun, 31 Jan 1999 23:38:06 -0600
I recently had a temporary partition set up on one of my hard drives and had
created a mount point for it to use inside RedHat 5.2
More recently, after having finished with the partition, I deleted it, and
edited my 'fstab' file to get rid of the reference to it.
However, I noticed the last time I booted into Linux (having already done
all changes, shutdown the system, and went to do other things) that when I
do an 'ls' in the '/' directory, the mount point directory name is still
listed. If I try to unmount it, it says it already is unmounted.
I started up X and ran the System Configuration tool through control panel,
and it correctly showed no listing for the now no longer existing mount
point.
I also checked mtab and it isn't there either (correctly).
So, where else should I be looking for why Linux still thinks this mount
point exists and should have a directory name for it?
TIA

Subject: Solution for Linux IP Masquerade users to run Warftpd behind a firewall! =)
Crossposted-To: alt.comp.jgaa,comp.os.linux.networking,linux.redhat.misc
Date: Mon, 01 Feb 1999 06:13:44 GMT
Hello everyone. =)
I would just like to share a little info with some of you who have been
asking the question "HOW do I run warftpd if I am behind a Linux IP
Masquerade box?"... Well, after searching around I finally figured it out
(some of you more experienced Linux users might have already done this)...
Here's what you do:
1) visit http://www.ox.compsoc.net/~steve/portforwarding.html and read all
the information there and apply the ipportfw patch to your kernel source
code (that comes with Redhat 5.2).
2) recompile your kernel with the CONFIG_IP_MASQUERADE_IPPORTFW option and
reboot.
3) run the ipportfw program (if you read everything on the page I told you
to go to, you'd know to compile the ipportfw.c program and run it) like
this:
ipportfw -A -t123.45.67.89/21 -R 192.168.0.2/21
Where 123.45.67.89 is your Linux box's real ip address, and 192.168.0.2 is
the internal LAN (not visible to outside world) ip of your Windows box
running the WarFTP Daemon...
That's it! Now you'll be able to use Warftpd with it's awesome feature-set
and extreme speed increase over that slow Wu-FTPd and it's complex
configuration matters.
=================
--==update==-- The new Linux 2.2 kernel includes port forwarding in the
source code, so hopefully the next release of Redhat Linux will have this
cool utility builtin! :)

It's not an error. After you reboot more that n times,
the system will do a disk check on your harddisk to see
if it is still in a `sane' state.
I think you can define the `n' in /etc/fstab.
Have fun,
Frans.

Hello,
I'm trying to install the graphic program Blender. I've managed to
decompress the tar file and can read the README file.
The README file says I need to set the environment by typing "setenv
BLENDERDIR <blender directory> and that I need to insert that line into
/etc/profile to make it automatically set.
So. I edit /etc/profile and add the line
setenv BLENDERDIR /dnload/blenderLinux_i386_libc6-dynamic_1.5.
then save the file.
When I login again, I get "setenv: bad command" How do I get this
working? and, I do I launch the program in X?
Thanks David
BTW...The README said use that setenv if you use csh. use "export BLENDER~~"
if you sh. I use bash. I don't know if it makes a difference.

Put the following in your /etc/conf.modules:
alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp
alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate
alias ppp-compress-26 slhc
alias net-pf-3 off
alias net-pf-4 off
alias net-pf-5 off
Some have recommended turning slhc off, seems to work fine on though.

Try copying the System.map file in /usr/src/linux to
/boot/System.map-2.2.1 If that doesnt work you might also need to update
sysklogd to version 1.3.28.
