Telnet and sendmail use different ports. I suppose you can always write
a program to modify packet headers. Unless I misunderstood, but why
on earth would you nedd to do that?

Yes, it is pretty good. However, a better place to ask is the

Subject: How do you keep GNOME running for more than a day??
From: -~=Darek M=~- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date: Sun, 12 Mar 2000 13:21:28 -0800
Installed GNOME and on the same day it started taking 4 minutes
to load at bootup and craps out on me after a few minutes of
use. IE: you click on the Logout button nothing happens, click
on an XTerm button, nothing.
I installed GNOME before, a few months back before switching to
KDE, and the same exact thing happened.
So how does one keep that pig working? I know someone out there
must be using it.
I tried installing gnome by hand, but got tired of failed
dependancies and could not figure out thich library had
xloadimage. So I installed the version that is on the RedHat 6
CD, and upgraded the core to the latest stable version. I also
installed the latest Enlightenment manually. Maybe I am using an
old library or something and that is causing the lack of
stability.
BTW: Tried HelixCode and it told me I was running an unsupported
distro, RH6 in this case.
Any help will be appreciated. I really want to give GNOME a try.
When it does run, I like it a lot.

I think this is a bug (at least a documentation bug). Help about=20
binaries support stays that you can forget about ELF (or Java binaries=20
support, for that matter) if MISC support is on, but this is not true:=20
even with MISC support on you still will need ELF support in the=20
kernel to boot up your Linux.

gcc will correctly compile .C files to .o, but will not automatically link
the required C++
library to produce the executable. g++ will invoke gcc, but also uses a
different linker
script that will automatically include the c++ library to resolve your

When you use iostream and not iostream.h everything is in the "std" namespace.
So you either have to change all your cout's to std::cout or include a "using"
declaration, ie "using namespace std;" somewhere.

You don't have to modify outgoing packets. They are not intended for your
server. What you should worry about is incoming connections to port 25.
There is not much you can do since they can easily detect any connections
to your machine. Maybe you can refuse connections from @home, but in that
case, nobody from @home can send you an email.
BTW @home shouldn't forbid people running their own correctly configured
mail servers for their own private use. They regularly have multi-hour
outages usually 2-4 times a week. With such a bad service they should
thank people who actually do their own mail and thereby reducing the
load on @home's server.

Aehm ... not quite ... no with current versions of gcc, but use
g++ as gcc is not going to link the, in this case, required
libstdc++ by itself.
You can use std::cout but it is more than less a noop, read
g++ does accept it, which is nice, but that is all.

I can use either, but prefer versions which do sensible things with
cursor keys (inserting a line containing silly characters is not what I
think of as sensible behaviour). By choice I use vim, but I'll happily
use vi in single-user mode when /usr is unmounted.

Subject: Re: how can my scripts know Linux has made a ppp connection?
Date: 12 Mar 2000 16:21:08 -0700
pppd will execute the contents of the file /etc/ppp/ip-up when it
successfully negotiates a ppp connection (see the pppd man page, it's near
the end) and the link is available to send/receive IP packets. You can
place whatever you need in this file to let either you or your scripts
know the ppp connection is really "up". I make use of this feature by
creating a "PPPisup" file which I test for in scripts that do things that
require an active ppp connection. To complete the picture, I have a ppp
disconnect script that deletes the "PPPisup" file when I break the ppp
connection. This is kinda crude, but it works OK for me.

Hi,
I have some problems after recompiling kernel 2.2.14. Now some background
information about my linux:
- SuSE 6.2
- previous kernel 2.2.10
- kernel size after recompiling: ca. 580 KB
Everything goes fine after "make clean dep bzImage && make modules && make
modules_install" no error messages during compilation. So i copied "bzImage"
to "/boot" and create new config under lilo. I thought it�s time to restart
an test the new compiled kernel.
The following messages appears:
Loading Linux...................
Uncompressing Linux....
invalid compressed format (err=1)
System halted
Wow, whats going wrong here??? I have compiled kernels many times but I
encountered never such a message!!!
Anybody has a idea??? Any help will be appreciated.

Hi-
For the kppp problem, I followed Dave's suggestion
and uninstalled kdenetwork-1.1.2-4 (which comes with
RedHat 6.1), and then installed kdenetwork-1.1.2-12.
Kppp now starts up with no error message for non-root

To make the kpanel go away, I ended up putting this

kill $(ps --no-headers -o "%p" -Ckpanel)

The following was extracted from the lvm man pages of SuSE
6.3.:
Examples
We have disk partitions /dev/sda3, /dev/sdb1 and
/dev/hda2
free for use and want to create a volume group
named
"test_vg". Steps required:
1. Change partition type for these 3 partitions to =
0x8e
with fdisk. (see pvcreate(8): 0x8e identifies LVM
parti=AD
tions)
2. pvcreate /dev/sda3 /dev/sdb1 /dev/hda2
3. vgcreate test_vg /dev/sda3 /dev/sdb1 /dev/hda2
Having our volume group "test_vg" online now, we are =
able
to create logical volumes. For example a logical
volume
with a size of 100MB and standard =
name
(/dev/test_vg/lvol1) and another one named
"my_test_lv"
with size 200MB striped (RAID0) across all the three
phys=AD
ical volumes.
Steps required:
1. lvcreate -L 100 test_vg
2. lvcreate -L 200 -n my_test_lv -i 3 test_vg
Now let's rock and roll. For example create a file

with "mkfs -t ext2 /dev/test_vg/my_test_lv" and =
mount it
with "mount /dev/test_vg/my_test_lv /usr1"

As if this helps..., I'm using the SuSE 6.3 distribution of
Linux. Their YaST (Yet another SeTup) utility provides an
"auto" dependencies option when adding new packages. It even
cautions you about adding a package when something else is
already installed that takes its place. In any event, might
double check whatever distribution you have for a similar
option. Otherwise, try SuSE.

The only problem with all of this, of course, is that the more physical
volumes that you add to one logical drive, the more you increase the risk of
the entire logical drive being corrupted if one of the physical drives dies
on you.
I did some experimenting with a Promise card some time ago, using windows
not linux, with both striping and an extended logical volume but reached the
conclusion after playing with it that it was not providing any performance
"bang" and multiplies the risk factor.
Perhaps you could get the Promise card working with linux ...

Thanks Brett and Juergen for your comments. I would hardly expect
iostream.h to do any good since iostream is essentially a call to it but
I tried anyway. The results were the same error messages. "std::cout"
did exactly the same thing too. I don't know where a using declaration
would have to be inserted for "using namespace std;" but gcc does not
like it.
Further suggestions would be much appreciated!

I'm having a similar problem compiling programs with gcc.
A couple of quick questions.
1. How does one install the kernel headers? Will installing the kernel
headers create a symmbolic link as described below?
2. How can you tell gcc to look in a different include path? (i.e. the
path to the file specified inside the <> )
Would re-installing gcc help at all?

I called Toshiba and inquired what kind of modem they have within their
latest laptops, e.g., 1605CDS, 2100CDS, etc. I was told it's WinModem,
never been tested with Linux, neither guaranteed to work with NT. Yes
there may be Linux support for Winmodem, but I'll not consider getting
anything with WinModem. It's too much headache.

Hi-
I tried Rod's suggestion and it didn't work for me.
The ./ltinst command returned and error, and the
boot-up sequence produced an error message
when trying to load the driver.
