First off stop using popclient and get fetchmail. The rc files are basically the same (took me about 15 minutes to convert), and it is much more stable, and does much more. Second if you decide to ignore the above. :) Make sure that the last line in the file is a blank line. I.e. make sure there is a return after the last command line.

ctype.h
I'm getting some errors while compiling after upgrading my system

OK... What I'm wondering is. What do other people have on their

Re: globally override/fool dpkg dependency mechanism?
Make a directory like 'perl-5.003' somewhere. Make sure you have debmake. Change into that directory and do 'deb-make'. It'll set up a couple things. create a 'Makefile' in the top level that responds to clean, all, install (but does nothing). Change into the debian directory and edit the control file to include the same things perl does. Also edit the rules file to remove the check for root. go up one directory and run dpkg-buildpackage. This should leave a couple dummy packages sitting one directory up. Install the perl one, and you'll now have perl installed (as far as dpkg knows). But just a dummy version. (What I did for ntex when I installed it do dselect would stop telling me that package so and so recommended latex. Just grabbed all the provides out of the standard tex packages, and put them all in one line for ntex).

Files in the lprng spool directories do get automatically deleted after printing...so you must be talking about something else. Nils I must confess that it was long ago I tried to set up printing Nils from Windows clients with samba. It worked by copying the Nils to-be-printed files to /tmp on unix and issuing a lpr Nils command. I then was puzzled about the many big files in /tmp Nils with strange names until I got the idea to add a -r switch to Nils the lpr command to remove files after printing. It worked from Nils then on and I never tried to setup anything and only remembered Nils that the -r switch was vital for operation with samba. The latest lprng ignores this switch and the -s (symlink) switch, but accepts them now. Too many people were having problems with stupid programs (including the Oracle database) that made bad requests (and couldn't be set to do anything else) to the printer subsystem. -r isn't used because lprng is completely network based. (i.e. even on a local machine the file will not just be copied from a location on disk). This is a security feature. -s is similar. Ahh another note. One fo LPRng's `features' is a much heightened security over the basic lpr. More informative output from lpq requests. Easier running modification of the daemon. Better support for filters. (I switched a bunch of machines over from different printing systems lp, lpr based. The users were a little thrown off by the different output format, but it made dealing with the printers from machine to machine much easier).

On such configuration, I can mount cdrom by accessing /l/cd, mount floppy with ext2 format by /l/fd mount floopy with fat format by /l/msdos. and explicitly umount cdrom by amq -u /l/cd, and so forth. Jonas What I and many other DOS - Linux migrates wishes for, is a Jonas driver with which I can remove my floppy at any time. This Jonas would require that the floppy never is write cached. Once I Jonas heard of a program called SuperMount which could do this, but Jonas I never got it to work (it was old, and required kernel Jonas patching). What I really don't understand is if your amd stuff Jonas here is a solution to this problem or not? No it isn't. The best you can do here is set a time limit for how long it'll stay mounted. As soon as you (say your cdrom will mount on /cdrom) change directory to /cdrom amd will mount it. As soon as you no longer are accessing /cdrom (cd ~) amd will start counting down. After a specified amount of time it'll dismount it. Problem is you can't just take it out without checking that it has been unmounted, so every time you go to take it out you have to do df or some such. :( The problem with the kernel doing it is that it has to figure out what kind of filesystem is on the zip disk, floppy, etc. AND it has to know where to mount it. I suppose you could set amd to a very short period of time before it umounts something. I'm not sure what kind of problems this will cause, but I suspect it isn't such a great idea. Ideally (on my first thought on this) it would be nice to have some user space program mounting things (but never unmounting them) so that it can do the filesystem check based on a number of things rather than coding it in the kernel. The kernel should then sense when a user requests a disk eject (of course this doesn't work on floppies since it isn't a requested eject rather a forced eject (one nice thing about Macs IMO)) and umounts the disk. Of course this is much easier in the Dos/Win(3.1|95) world since you don't encounter 10 different partition types. (more?) If I'm missing some wonderful way to do this I'd love to know. :) Jim -- @James LewisMoss | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Blessed Be! @http://www.cs.sc.edu/~moss | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Linux is cool! @Argue for your limitations and sure enough, they're yours.

John Also, how do I set the LS_OPTIONS so that my directory listings
John will be in color? Right now I am using an alias, but that's a
John sloppy way to do it. Also, does fvwm95 support colorized
John listings?
I don't know anything about fvwm95, but if you put the following
line in your .bash_profile or equivalent, 'ls' should display in
color:
eval `dircolors`
Shaya I don't think this works anymore, I think the color-ls was
Shaya folded into the normal ls, and you have to put all the aliases
Shaya in your .bash_{rc,profile} manually. However, I can't verify
Shaya this since my system at work doesn't seem to want to accept
Shaya any connections right now except for telnet's to port 25 (so
Shaya at least I know it hasn't crashed :-) )
Here's what I got in my .bashrc to set up color.
if [ $ANSI = true ] ; then
eval `dircolors ~/.dir_colors`
fi
if [ $ANSI = true ] ; then
LS_BIN=/bin/ls --color
else
LS_BIN=/bin/ls
fi
alias ls=$LS_BIN -FC # removed argument 'o' from these three lines
alias l=$LS_BIN -lFC
alias dir=$LS_BIN -l
alias cls=clear ; $LS_BIN
(I check earlier in the file to make sure I'm on a terminal that can
deal with ansi codes. At the moment I just hard code the terminals I
know won't work. Anyone know a better way?)
And as to xterm I just added (as someone on this list suggested) the
line:
XTerm*customization: -color
to my .Xdefaults file. Others have said that cating the
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/XTerm-color file on the end of the
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/XTerm file will have the same effect.
