I believe that is what you are looking for. I don't mean to be rude,
but apparently you didn't search the news groups or read the kernel
configuration help for port forwarding in the kernel. I believe it
mentions that you need to do EXACTLY this.

Qmail is very nicely configurable with a single directory
containing text files to define the configuration.
I am not aware of any security holes - there was $10k offered and
uncollected for anyone to execute any operation on a machine running
qmail that they did not have permission to execute while logged in.

Different discusions require different data. A point of fact though, I believe I
did make some comment on the distributed computing model. But that may have been
another time. In any case, the "High End" server from the Mindcraft tests seems to
be exactly this low end cluster you've been claiming to have someware. MS has it in
production, where's yours?

Subject: Re: Samba can't share DOS mount?
Date: Wed, 16 Jun 1999 18:12:50 +0100
The problem is that it's a VFAT parition and as such it does not have
permission bits. You can't chmod u+x or anything like that because DOS
doesn't have any concept of execute-only mode, etc.
But, you can specify effective permissions for the duration of the mount
with the -f and -d arguments to the mount command. But once mounted, that's
it -- all files on that partition will appear with those permissions (until
umounted) -- you can't change individual permissions.
If you're like me you can never remember the octal equivalents for the
permissions, so have a look at the man page for chmod.

I had the same problem trying to redirect port 55556 of my masq.
firewall to port 23 on my internal linux box (I needed it to have access
to my machine from school)
I just upgraded my kernel to 2.2.10 and the problem was solved.
So maybe a kernel upgrade can solve your problem.

I have a Samba/Linux server with the OEM-installed Win98 DOS drive mounted
as /dos. As root, I can read and write files to the /dos directory. However,
as root, I can _not_ change the permissions on /dos, and even though /dos is

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Old, old topic, but an hour of browsing on Deja didn't seem to produce a
solution to my problem.
I'm trying to run xchat (or ircii, or..) on my Linux box, which is not
on a firewall but has its own firewall enabled.
I have in my hosts.allow file in.identd: all and I get messages from
identd in the syslog, such as:
Jun 16 14:31:11 linux identd[1537]: Connection from
galaxynet.sprynet.com
Jun 16 14:31:12 linux identd[1537]: from: 165.121.1.47 (
galaxynet.sprynet.com ) for: 1269, 6667
But no returned line, as if the connection is made but nothing is done.
Is there more I need to do to allow identd connections, I've tried it on
a few hosts that aren't allowed into my machine (by default) and they
produce the same message. However, I can send commands to the identd
server, so it seems to me that the firewall isn't interfering.
Identd is so silly, but now a bot on a channel I hang on sometimes
insists on ident or you're kicked, so I can't even get into the channel
now.
Thanks!

If the service is not available then no customer servicing
can go on. Bell Labs engineers love to hark upon this point.
That they do works rather in your favor.

Mind you, Linux webserver clustering was one of the first things

At least two IP addresses are provided with each domain listing -- the
primary and secondary nameservers. No other IP addresses are listed or
can be listed [unless the registering individual(s) happened to fill out
the "optional" fields, which most do not].

Yes, the two nameservers.

More likely, you are looking for `host -l domainname.com`

Yes, try the command I just mentioned. It will not work on some
nameservers [whether or not to allow digs is a configuration option],
but it will work for most.

No, as I know full well, madness that way lies.
I just wanted to set up a condition that would never be satisfied so we
