You can set permissions so users can mount the CDROM. The reason for
controlling who can mount a filesystem is security. If anyone could
mount filesystems anywhere, someone could mount over /bin or /sbin, and
you may end up running a hacked login, or passwd, for example.
Make your /etc/fstab entry like this:
/dev/cdrom /cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro,user
0 0

That's one of the main functions of programs known as Mail Transfer
Agents. The most popular MTAs for Linux are Sendmail, Qmail, Exim,
Smail, and Zmailer. I have been using Qmail for a while and I like it.
Many Linux CDs include some of these MTAs. (They don't include Qmail
because its license terms don't allow that kind of redistribution.)
They all require some reading of HOWTOs and FAQs and manual entries to
get them set up the way you want. Start with the Mail-HOWTO which
is probably in /usr/doc/HOWTO on your Linux system, or see
http://metalab.unc.edu/LDP/mirrors.html for a nearby mirror
and look at the HTML HOWTOs there.
Some mail applications are designed to work without a local MTA, and
have an internal queue. I think Netscape Messenger will queue outbound
mail but I've never tried it.

What do you mean by "can't read" the file? An error message would be nice,
if you have one. I download things from the Internet at work using
WindowsNT all the time. I put the files on an LS120 superdisk. I then
bring that disk home, put it in my LS120 at home, mount it and read
the files just fine. My home LS120 is on my parallel port which gets
a name of /dev/pf0. So my mount command looks like:
mount -t vfat /dev/pf0 /mnt/ls120
I can then read and write files on the LS120 with no problems. I also
dual boot my home PC (Linux 90% + Windows98 10%). I can mount my
Windows drives using a similiar mount command such as
mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /win98/c
for example. So it is possible!
Please give us and error message and I'm sure someone will hop in with
a fix.

It's been a while since I done this, but I have a file called /etc/HOSTNAME

If you have IDENTICAL hds. I.e the same vendor and model, then you can
use the "dd" command. Suppose your "real" system is the master on the
primary IDE channel. This makes it /dev/hda. If you put an IDENTICAL hd
as the slave on the primary IDE channel, it will be /dev/hdb. You can
copy, sector for sector, from /dev/hda to /dev/hdb by entering the
command:
dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb
Again, this is a sector by sector physical copy. It copies EVERYTHING.
the partition table, the master boot record, EVERYTHING!
Note that you can copy between any complete HDs using this. So you could
run off of /dev/hda (/dev/hda1, et al). You could then set up /dev/hdb
as your "master copy" by
dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb
You can now feel free to modify the running system on /dev/hda. Do NOT use
the "mount" command to mount any /dev/hdb? partitions unless you want to
update your "master copy". Now place the HD you want to copy to as the
master on the secondary IDE channel. This is /dev/hdc. Copy from /dev/hdb
to /dev/hdc with (I'm sure you've guessed it <grin>)
dd if=/dev/hdb of=/dev/hdc
the plus of using /dev/hdb as your "master" is that you can update your
running system as required without impacting your ability to clone.
Updates to the "master" can be strictly controlled without hampering your
ability to change your running environment.
The biggest "minus" in this is that the HDs MUST BE IDENTICAL! They must
have the same geometry (cylinder/heads/sectors). This is most easily done
by using the same vendor/model of HD.
Hope this helps,
John

Compare the output from these two commands
du -x -k -c /home|grep total
df -k /home |grep "/home"|awk '{print $3}'
change the instances of /home to whatever partition you care to check
out.
If they're the same, then you have nothing hidden under a mount.
The first one works on Linux, but not Solaris. On Solaris it'd be:
du -d -k /
and compare the last line to the df command.

What do you mean by "work with MS Access database"?
Microsoft Access will not run on Linux (without resorting to
*extremely* alpha-test things like WINE which tend to be challenging
for beginners to try to use), so if what you want to do is to use MS
Access either as:
a) Front end, or
b) Database "Server,"
You're pretty much out of luck.
In contrast, various relational databases are available for Linux that
provide interfaces conforming to the ISO "SQL-CLI" standard (sometimes
known as ODBC) that MS Access might connect to.
In such a case, you'd have a database server (e.g. - PostgreSQL, MySQL,
Oracle, Informix, DB/2, Solid SQL, ...) running on Linux, and connect to
it using MS Access, which is running on a WinTel PC.
If you plan to have a bunch of users running MS Access, hooking up to a
central database, this latter approach should work quite well.

Many relational database systems are listed at the URL below. No
recommendations will be forthcoming; I'll leave opining to others.

BTW you can "dd" the partition to anywhere, for example, to a file on a

Any help in http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/misc/irq-conflict.html ?
[...]
The solutions
If the card is reporting IRQ0 or IRQ255, that indicates the
card has not been assigned an interrupt. There are two
likely fixes: either the BIOS does not have enough IRQ
lines available for PCI devices (e.g. all are assigned to
"legacy" ISA devices instead of "PnP"), or the BIOS has a
"PnP OS" setting that must be disabled. Yes, this is
confusing: the "PnP OS" setting is bad (it really means
"Windows OS?"), but the PnP IRQ assignment is good.
If the card is reporting a valid IRQ, but that IRQ is being
used by another device you have an interrupt conflict. The
easiest and generally best solution is to put the
conflicting device on another IRQ line. This can only be
done through the PCI BIOS setup. Unlike ISA cards, PCI
cards have no way of setting their own IRQ. That is done
at boot time by the PCI BIOS, and the BIOS reports its
selection
