There is no standard. What you see most commonly is up to 2x RAM for swap,
up to 2 GB for / and everything else for /home.
But when you have 128 MB of ram 256 MB of swap is quite excessive, for
most people 128 MB of swap is all they ever need, on a home system.
But it greatly depends on what you do.
There is a different thread going on at this moment with a lot of good
remarks, so I would suggest to start there.
The most common partitions to have aside from the / -partition (aka the
root partition) are :
* a seperate /boot partition. The older version of lilo, the default
linux bootloader, couldn't boot from partitions which ended above the
1024 cylinders, so a small partition < 20 MB would be created at the
beginning of the disc.
* a seperate /home partition. Except for root all users have their home
directory, where they store their own files, data and work, in the
subdirectories of /home. When you have those on a seperate partition
you can leave them intact when you thrash the rest of the system to
install a new distribution, or do an upgrade.
For other partitions some different reasons may exist for their
creation. The reason to have separate partitions is that when the
partition you have your log files on is 100% full the system will lock
down, second when the partition where /root resides gets full, root
won't be able to log on anymore, third when you upgrade/reinstall the
vendor software (your linux distribution) it shouldn't overwrite/remove
software you compiled yourself from source, nor the directories with
data.
/tmp (so when users dump complete cd's in there and completely fill the
device your system won't lock down)
/var/spool (again to prevent mailbombs, printqueues etc to completely
fill all avaialable disc space)
/var/spool/news (tends to get very large, very quickly when you run a
newsserver, besides since a news server will receive lots of smell
files, you might want to create a filesystem with a small
blocksize and lots of additional inodes)
/var/log (makes it easy to monitor with df, gives the least possibility
of users swamping it and locking the system)
/usr/src (where I always keep to source to the stuff in /usr/local)
/usr/local (where you keep the binaries/libs/documentation and such of
locally compiled software. You keep them on a seperate partition
so you won't lose them, when you upgrade the linux distribution
you are running.)
/data (when user accounts have fi quota on /home, but some of them have
large datasets as well)
/database/disc#1....#n professional databases require a full array of
discs for best performance.

RELEASE NOTE will not help you. It says only that sendmail by default is
configured as standalone server.
based on your post I can say that you have problem with tcpwrappers (the
fact that right now sendmail is shiped with tcpwrappers compiled in is
NOT in the release note)
Go and check your /etc/var/maillog .... if you have there something like
"tcpwrapper ... reject" (I dont remember excatly how log looks like"
than you I bet that you have in /etc/hosts.deny ALL:ALL
if so ..... you have to add into /etc/hosts.allow sendmail:ALL (of
course if you want to receive mail on sendmail from any hosts)

I think thats exactly that what Peet asked for, because he has no idea of partitioning
yet.. so as I had when I started with Linux.
It is always hard to plan how much space is used on any partition. one example: you run
a mysql server and the database gets bigger and bigger, almost exceeding all sizes you
thought to be possible.. finally you have to reinstall or repartition or move to
another
partition....
As said my setup is also used in computer science lab at my local university (because I
administer some machines there). They are mainly used for surfing, programming and
linux
hacking. It works just fine there and therefore I adopted it on my home system. Till
now
I didn't run out of diskspace on any partition.
But you're right: it would help to know what the specific needs of Peet are.
if he just wants to surf, then perhaps two small /var, /tmp and a large / partition
would be enough.
I think it is a good idea to keep /tmp and /var separate. if something goes wrong, it
is
mostly in /var or /tmp. I had to reinstall several times because something went wrong
in
/tmp or /var (entire partitions died), which at that time were on the root filesystem
(bad idea, but I was new to Linux at that time). and this is annoying if you are
running
a mysql server for your science lab...
I hope I made myself clear now. :-))) I am just kiding when I get serious.

I hate reinstalling, but I have to make some alterations like creating a
minimum of 400Meg of swap for Oracle8 db server and one partition for oracle
to live on.
I tried to repartition /dev/hda, but after deleting /dev/hda1 and creating a
new partition, the rest of free space is marked as unusable and I don't want
to waste over 20gigs of disk space... so i _must_ reinstall and need a way to
backup and restore my system with minimum work and cost. You know a way of
doing this?

I've just pick up 3 old IBM boxes (one P75 and two 110DX4's with
monitor, keyboard and cables for $40, who could resist?)
I want to partition the P75 and install Linux very soon.
However, being a newbie, I want to make sure that I can add the other
two boxes with Beowulf later.
Do I need to be aware of anything or do anything special during the
initial Linux setup in preparation for a later Beowulf addition?
Or, do I just install Linux in its own right intially and simply add
Beowulf later?
Also, taking recommendations for the best Web sites to guide a newbie

Subject: Xconfigurator hangs
Date: Sat, 19 May 2001 01:28:52 GMT
Hi,
I am having trouble with Xconfigurator. The first time I ran this it worked
fine. For unrelated reasons however, I had to reinstall Linux. I loaded X
windows and Ximian Gnome just fine, but my video settings were off. When I
went to run Xconfigurator to fix these, it hanged at the monitor section. By
"hanged" I mean right after it correctly identified my video card, XConfigurator
went to a blank blue screen instead of giving me a choice of monitors. It
freezes there, and the only thing that resolves this is a hard reboot (its
almost an NT behavior!!). I have attempted this 3 times with the same results.
Can anyone tell me why this would happen, and/or what to try from here?
Thank you,

Howdy!
Last time I was in this sphere was 5 years ago on Solaris. I'm pretty rusty
but it's a nice bunch of development you guys have done.
Mandrake 8.0 installed like a dream, but I can't seem to get networked. My
3c509 was detected just fine, I see it come up in boot init, I see it
properly configured in ifconfig. I found netconf in the documentation and
used it, I can ping localhost. I've dropped a windows box off the rest of
my network, set them up with compatible IP specs & added everybody to
everybody's host file but I can't ping out from or to anyone from the Linux
box.
I see in bootup that init isn't sure if my kernel supports virtual server,
but I should still be able to ping (using numerical IP address) from the
terminal session right?
The only other things I notice are that my arp talbes are completely empty,
and that there are no netconfig or nslookup commands available to me. My
attempts to add arp entries aren't working properly, somehow the address for
the default gateway gets mixed up in there. Here's my syntax:
arp -s linux.localdomain 00:60:8C:CD:30:FE netmask 255.255.255.0 (ether
address is good)
at first I thought the command was hanging, more patience showed me that the
command returned a 'host name lookup failure'.
Anyone help me out here?
Thanks in adv...
