95 % of all software can be installed this way:
cd /usr/src
tar xfvz your-downloaded-package.tar.gz
cd your-downloaded-package
./configure
make
make install
the last step requires root access.
Check the README or INSTALL files that come with the source, they will tell
you the same in most cases. There are exceptions, of course.

Subject: Trying to install Linux on Dell Poweredge 6300
Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2000 16:30:05 -0000
I have been attempting to install Linux on a Dell Poweredge 6300 which has
the following configuration:
1 GB RAM
5 9 GB UW SCSI drives connected to an Adaptec 7890 controller on MB.
Unused Adaptec 7890 controller on MB
CD-ROM connected to Adaptec 7860 controller on MB.
Intel EEPro 100 NIC
ATI Rage II Pro video adapter.
I have tried installing several Linux distributions with no success. The
installation appeared to work flawlessly in each case, but Linux failed to
come up upon rebooting after the install.
Mandrake 7.1 halted with the message:
"INIT: ID # respawning to fast: disabled for 5 minutes"
where # appeared for each SCSI drive and the sequence repeated after 5
minutes.
Red Hat 6.1 and 7.0 both reported the following:
"Warning: unable to open an initial console"
"Kernel Panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.
Turbolinux 6.0 does not even start to boot, the machine hangs as soon as
it accesses the OS.
I have changed settings on the SCSI controller with no effect. I also
connected another drive to the 7860 controller and tried to use it as my
boot drive with no effect.
I would appreciate any suggestions that anyone could offer as to what the
problem might be.

Don't know fetchmail can do this. There is the tool showmail by Manfred

that can do it. I wrote a kde extension to it called kshowmail. That has a

It does take some extra time to swap _out_ all those pages, but (since
there is so much in cache) I'd think that these pages hardly ever need to
be swapped back _in_. You can use top(1) to investigate which processes
have been swapped out.

Subject: Disable cacheing of one mount point
Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2000 17:16:34 +0100
Hello,
how can I disable the caching of one partition mounted at some
mountpoint running kernel 2.2.16 and fs ext2 but the fs dosn't matter
and can be changed to anything readable by 2.2.16 kernel.
I have a nfs server with around 100000 to 200000 file requests per day
(8h working day) only about 100 files have a size of 10 MB to 20 MB.
The other files have sizes between 10 KB and 100 KB. Running a server
with 256 MB Ram nearly all of the small files fit into cache and gave
a great performance (about 2500 small files). The large files are only
requested 2 to 10 times. Normaly they are requested in pairs of 2 or
4. So in worst case 80 MB of small files are pushed aout of the cache.
This leads to a big performence drop until all small files are back in
cache.
Adding more ram is impossible.
Thanks,
Alexander Newald

Hi
My work is maintaining a site, and I am trying to

module when my site have some updates.
At first, I ran the scripts at my RedHat 6.2, it seem run not
running very good, it returns some error messages w

But the weird thing is, it could run without any problems
at RedHat 5.2, I have tested it on myself's accounts and it
works!! So I guess it may be Linux's problem, or RedHat 6.2's
problem, Could anybody tell me what could I do if I still want

Hi all,
I am wondering what's the performance of a Linux box with packet filter

Suppose I use a PIII 700Mhz machine.
I am not expect they have the same performace, but at least can it
ahieve half or something like that...... since I am wondering whethere
need to use a few thousand to buy a layer 4 switch or use a few hundred

Reply-To: mvjap3 at work <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Yes that works << _IF_ your other progs are properly set up.>>
If by chance there is a problem with fetchmail or sendmail, pine can be
configured to access the ISP's servers directly, drawback, must be On-line
to do so... Possible advantage, with a dial up isp connecting my linux to
the internet, I was never able to get mail sent via sendmail past my
employers anti-spam filters... <even when I managed to get sendmail to
use my ISP's domain name in the from header line... <I'm not an expert so
it was probably just not set up properly> But when I set up pine to use my
isp's smtp server directly, It always gets through... I can compose it off
line, I can even get pine to postpone it until I'm ready to send it, but
I have to connect before I "send" it. But I never had a reason to use it
to bypass fetchmail on my linux. But was glad to know it could when they
moved the mail to a remote server at work... And told me to either use
rlogin from my unix to access an outdated version of mailx on the server
or use netscape from a windows pc... I found that pine accessed the imap
server nicely.
Hint
To configure pine go to the (M)ain <initial> screen and select (S)et up
then (C)onfigure... If you don't understand an option, try selecting it
with the arrow keys, and then type ? for help.

Are you trying to rlogin as root? Does it work as a normal user?
If you are trying to rsh as root you are required to come from a
privileged port < 1024, but your masquerader will be shifting this
port < 1024 up to the 60,000ish area which rsh will complain about.
Look in /var/log/messages on the remote machine for confirmation.
The solution is to use ssh as a rsh replacement, which providing you
aren't using rhosts style authentication will work fine.

That means the font server, xfs (This is in Mandrake, not sure what it
calls in RedHat), is not running. Enable font server so that it starts
at boot using linuxconf. Otherwise, edit /etc/X11/XF86Config, or
/etc/XF86Config to set font dirs properly to something like this (make
sure these font dirs exists):

Take a look at Qt Embedded. It looks very promising, and porting KDE
applications to it should be doable. Applications need to be designed
differently when screen estate and RAM is so precious, though. A
friend has it running on an iPaq with Linux, it is quite usable
already.

You can increase the level of debugging that samba generates. I'm not sure
if it will give you the actual names of the files, but you can definitely
get the time that the user connected to the share.
Look at the "debug level" option in your smb.conf file.
