Indeed this doesn't have much to do with sendmail or HTTP or SMTP.
Or MAPI for that matter. I'm just trying to find a solution for the original
problem and your
> >> Simple Answer: You can't.
is not quite convincing. There're possibilities out there.
Suppose MHTML-archival utility is able to resolve links
and pack locally/relatively rereferenced files together in one (text) file.
Using MIME which does not have anything to do with Microsoft and
does have some relation to SMTP and sendmail. The result file file
can be fed to sendmail as a simple solution to the original question.
I know MHTML exists (I've seen it in MS products but it doesnt mean
nobody else did it, right?) and it's certainly worth an RPM search.
--Andrew
BTW, you forgot at least one more legal way to reference images from html:
<img src="pictures/mypicture.jpeg">
It means "picture location is relative to the base of current file".

/sbin/lilo at a command line.

The early OSs were a lot less than DOS was. Dos is an old OS. 20 years
ago, that wasw about all the OS you could fit o to one of those
computers, but it was still an OS. Just because it was used long past
it's use-by data, doesn't make it any less of an OS.

Try to upgrade the kernel.
2.2.1 is not a very stable kernel. Linus recomended not to use in
distribution
kernels until 2.2.6.
Thus try to update the kernel. Last stable kernel is 2.2.17.

Kevin,
Check page 20 of the CVS manual and pay special attention to
the CVS_RSH environment variable. Set this to ssh and use
the :ext: method (right in your -d cvs directory path). You
will be prompted for password as usual and it will then just
execute as though repository is local (assuming that your
ssh works as you say...)
Hope this helps

i don't think parted is able to do that, but you could make a dos
boot disk and use the dos version of partition magic 4 (or higher),
that one fits on an other floppy. You could also use the program
shipped with mandrake, i thought it was called disk druid, it is
a nice partitioner too.
good luck!
Martin
P.S. you could also put your 200 M hard disk in an other machine
running linux, follow the first part of the LFS book, then put
it in the original machine and follow the rest of the book. Maybe
you could ask some help at #lfs at irc.linuxfromscratch.org,
they will surely know what to do.

I don't know if the download is still available, but the Linux beta has been
free, and supposedly times out at the end of the year. If it's not
available at the Adobe site, I have a copy; and I can email it to you some
off-hour time if you can handle a file of tens of MB (I forget how large it
actually is, but it's a biggie.) Many ISPs have their mail servers

However, I met another problem, I don;t know how to send

$msg->attach(

and my HTML have 3 images, so I tried
$msg->attach(

);
$msg->attach(

$msg->attach(

but only the last one, circle.gif is sent, I read the document,
but I can't find the parts that talking about sending multiple

Subject: What is a system map, part 2?
Date: Fri, 13 Oct 2000 07:55:40 -0400
All this talk about the "system.map" file prompted me to look
at my directory, /boot. Some of the stuff is there because I
did a rpm -Uvh kernel.* . The rest is there because I did
/sbin/lilo with the following in /etc/lilo.conf:
boot=/dev/sda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
linear
timeout=50
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.14-5.0.14csmp
label=linux
root=/dev/sda5
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.14-5.0.14c
label=linux-up
root=/dev/sda5
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.12-0.1smp
label=linuxOld
root=/dev/sda5
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.12-0.1
label=linux-upOld
root=/dev/sda5
read-only
Notice that the default kernel with which I run is the one in
/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.14-5.0.14csmp.
But when I list /boot, I see (boring stuff deleted):
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Oct 9 18:12 System.map ->
System.map-2.2.14-5.0.14c
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 205841 Aug 26 1999
System.map-2.2.12-0.1
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 216825 Aug 26 1999
System.map-2.2.12-0.1smp
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 203421 May 31 12:42
System.map-2.2.14-5.0.14c
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 214729 May 31 12:32
System.map-2.2.14-5.0.14csmp
Similarly for these:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Oct 9 18:12 module-info ->
module-info-2.2.14-5.0.14c
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Oct 9 18:12 vmlinuz ->
vmlinuz-2.2.14-5.0.14c
I guess my question is: does anyone (i.e., any process,
including the kernel) use these symbolic links? Because if so,
I should change them to point to the kernel I normally use. But
that raises another question: If I boot a different kernel,
perhaps because I installed one that is no good as the latest
one, I will get the wrong values for the symbolic links. What
are the consequences of this?

I'm using one of the post-M18 nightly builds and it looks fine, maybe it has
already been fixed. If you want to report a bug, you need to:
1) download the latest nightly to ensure it hasn't already been fixed - M17 is
quite old now.
2) Use this form if are new to bugzilla:
http://www.mozilla.org/quality/help/bugzilla-helper.html
If you don't know the component then just guess as best as you can, if it's
the wrong component someone who knows will transfer it to the right one

Which version? I tried one a couple of months ago, presumably not a
developmental version (gnucash-1.3.7-1.i386.rpm), and never got it to run right.
It also did a lousy job (useless, IMO) of importing from Quicken. Problems
included double counting of things.

Subject: RH 7 refuses to poweroff
Date: 13 Oct 2000 10:35:10 GMT
I've just upgraded RH 6.2 to 7.0 on a laptop computer. Everything
seems to work fine, but when I select "Halt" to finish my gnome session,
my laptop performs the halt secuence ending with the message "System halted"
and it doesn't poweroff. It works fine if I select "System"->"Halt" in the
xwindows login screen. It also worked fine in RH 6.2.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Jose Luis
