Hi, Peter,
Here's the information that you want. It seems that there is some problem with
my Configure script. It showed so many errors when I type run "sh ./Configure"
Please have a look.
Thanks a lot for your kindly help!

This is totally *dumb*. Your computer security people are really dumb.
If your /etc/hosts.lpd is missing or empty and your /etc/hosts.equiv is
also empty, lpd is effectively NOT on the network. Period.
These guys must be thinking of MS-Windows or MacOS, both of which are
*far* looser.
Note: the *default* (at least with RedHat) is either /etc/hosts.lpd is
missing or empty. Ditto with /etc/hosts.equiv. This is ONE place where
RedHat is secure (a base RH install is not totally secure --
/etc/hosts.deny is also empty, etc.).

Ghostscript can do this:
# Your basic 24-pin Epson printer:
% cat foo.ps | gs -q -sDEVICE=epson -sPAPERSIZE=letter -dNOPAUSE -r360x180
-sOutputFile=/dev/lp0 -
# An Epson Stylus Color 600, using the uniprint driver:
% cat foo.ps | gs -q @stc600p -sDEVICE=uniprint -sPAPERSIZE=letter
-sOutputFile=/dev/lp0 -
If your printer IS a postscript printer, you can use cat:
% cat foo.ps >/dev/lp0
You may have to adjust the permissions (modes) of /dev/lp0 (or /dev/lp1
or /dev/lp2) to allow doing this as a non priv. user.
It should be trivial to create a suitable script file to encapsulate the
options.

Excuse me for asking the obvious question, but are you sure there
isn't something wrong with how you reconfigured /etc/lilo.conf?
Of course if you got that wrong, it shouldn't boot at all, but
perhaps you should double check and rerun lilo again.
You also don't say how you are set up vis-a-vis the win2000
boot loader and lilo and you don't say just where the reboot
fails.

You work at a military institute or something? No printer daemon... Jezus!
Anyway, what the daemon basically does is waiting for some input in
PostScript or ASCII, throw it through one or more filtering program(s) that
convert it into something your printer understands, and finally send it to
the printer port.
You can, of course, bypass this daemon at any time...
All you need to do is find out what the daemon would do and do it yourself
(which, of course, may be quite difficult to find out ;)
However, I'm afraid you will have to be root to be able to get it to the
printer port (though I'm not sure)
Hope this gets you on the way...

If you use john+detail (where "detail" varies) then you can make
use of the mechanisms in sendmail that handel "+detail". You can
use virtusertable or aliases (john+*) to deal with these addresses.
Otherwise you may have to can use a regular expression to transform
johnXYZ into john+XYZ and continue from there.
Another possibility is to generate aliases from your DB and use
that data.

I make extensive use of a program called "cscope" in unixware that

you're after.
So ... Does anyone reading this know of the where-abouts of such a beast

Subject: Linux floating point/IEEE 745 compliancy
Date: Sun, 11 Jun 2000 20:19:54 +0200
Hi All,
As I'm planning to use my system for large numerical calculation jobs, I am
a bit worried by rumours that Linux does not
completely conform to the IEEE-745 Standard for Binary Floating Point
Arithmetic. This means that when doing calculations with 80-bit floats,
I may lose significant precision.
I take it that compliancy with the IEEE standard should be implemented in
the math libraries, so the question I'm asking may be distribution (and
certainly platform) specific: Is Linux IEEE-745 compliant?
Any comment, help or link to website of related discussion group is highly
appreciated.

OK, sorry, I warned you I didn't really know how kppp works; now it's
more of a mystery than ever. But I have to agree with the other guy
who suggested you find an alternative. Some people recomment WvDial
or EZppp (?) or simply using Linuxconf, which you should have.
I can't recommend any one specifically, since I just went to the
PPP-HOWTO and picked through the details that these utilities are
designed to avoid. The new HOWTO is: www.linuxports.com/howto/ppp
(If you do it that way, and have Windows on the same system, you
should take a good look at your ModemLog.txt file when you make up
the chat script.)
The new HOWTO has detailed instructions for WvDial and LinuxConf.
If you posted a question asking for a good alternative to kppp,
I'll bet you'd get LOTS of suggestions. Just stand back and
watch out for the flame....
Good Luck with it,

I installed a MS PS/2 mouse, two button, regular old mouse. Everything

Under X it is annoying to use because I have to move the mouse really
far to get the pointer to move compared to how far I had to move a
serial mouse or what is needed in movement of the mouse under other OS's
run.
In checking /etc/XF86Config man page I see nothing to adjust this under
the pointer section.
This is usually referred to as "Tracking Speed" or "Acceleration" under
other OS's and is adjustable.
Any ideas on how to modify this setting?

Now i would like to get a bigger hard disk for linux and keep my old hard

How can i uninstall linux from my hard drive without losing any windows data
and get back the whole hard disk dedicated to windows?
I thought I can use disk druid to get rid of linux partitions and then?
The free space can be dedicated to the old windows partitions without
reformatting?
Or it's better leaving it as free space and then using restorrb from fips?
