Quick question
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has a copy of the old(...ie 4 weeks +)Citrix tarball avaliable. I need this tarball, not the new one on thier website. I am trying to install citrix on my FreeBSD system, and I need the linux Citrix tarball (it runs citrix under linux emulation). I have searched Google, Freshmeat, asked in IRC, the FreeBSD mailing lists, tried to install the german version of citrix, emailed the port maintainer, and emailed the citrix people. All this has either gotten me nothing, or they point me to the new version of this tarball, and it's not what i need.The file is called linuxx86.tar.gz Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I have always had good success with this list when I need it for my debian help (half my computers are debian). When replying can you please CC: me, I am no longer on this mailing list. Rob
RE: 3c905C Drivers
I tried to get this to work. I tried 2 different NIC cards and the built in one on my laptop. I could not get 1 NIC (the older one) to work and my laptop. It did however work with my new NIC. (this is on kernel 2.2.18) using Debian's 2.2r2. All 3 seemed to work great with 2.4.X kernel. I am not sure about using kernel 2.2.19 included in r3. So not sure what your success would be with the 2.2.19 kernel, but it should work with the 2.4.X kernel. -Original Message- From: Jason Majors [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, May 13, 2001 3:18 PM To: The Reutzels Cc: Debian User Subject: Re: 3c905C Drivers The 3c59x kernel module covers that card.

Yet Another X question
I just installed Debian on my system. Because I wanted a new version of Window maker, I didn't install an X-window manager. I compiled Window maker and all that good jazz. I ran all the setups, Now when I login to xdm (remotely) I get nothing. when I login locally I get the desktop (whoopie) so I am figuring I need to edit something in /etc/X11/xdm but I am not exactly sure which file and what exactly I put in. Can anyone help me out quick? TIA Rob
boot diskette
What is the easiest way to make a boot diskette to install on a computer that is an ancient dinosaur that doesn't allow you to boot off of the CD? I know RH had one, and I tried the Debian boot diskettes, but the one image it said was too big to fit onto a floppy. Did I do this wrong? (one possibility) or is there another way to go about it. This computer isn't very big, so I like Debian nice small install instead of RH's bloatware thanks Rob

If you go the network route which would be much easier you will need 6 floppies. Read the installation instructions at - http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/#new-inst You can find the floppy images at - http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/potato/main/disks-i386/current/images- 1.44/ assuming your using i386 architecture and 1.44 MB floppies and you want the stable release. Course use the mirror closest to you. If you want to go the route of full floppy install you will need all 17 images. hth, kent -- From seeing and seeing the seeing has become so exhausted First line of The Panther - R. M.

GUI Email program
Hi there, I am looking for suggestions of a GUI email program (sorry i just like them better) Anyway...I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions? Netscape doesn't seem to be cutting it very well for me. I tried evolution, but I always ran into problems trying to compile the tarballs, it would tell me this dependency wasn't met, and that this version wasn't up to date enough even though I pulled it off of Ximian's site. And if I apt-get'ed something, it wouldn't be the most recent and things were trown into other places than where the ./configure script was looking, so it would tell me I have wrong versions. So the jist of it. Can anyone tell me a good reliable, with nice features, GUI email program? Thanks Rob
ftp security question
I have disabled anon. login for ftp. When I try to log into ftp using the username ftp it says guest ok. But it will deny the user. My question is how do I disable this? There is no ftp user in /etc/shadow /etc/passwd. The only user named ftp is /etc/ftpusers which is the file that lists people who are disabled. I take ftp out of this file and I still get the same thing. guest login ok but I cannot actually login. How do I remedy this? Rob
testing upgrade now problems with X
I just upgraded to testing. I rebooted, and then logged in fine. Now when I try and start X I get this error message. X: cannot stat /etc/X11/X (No such file or Directory), aborting. giving up Xinit: Connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error I have all the packages from dist-upgrade. and -f install. When I try and run XF86Setup, it Segfaults. I can't connect up via XDM either. Any suggestions? TIA Rob
RE: testing upgrade now problems with X...solved somewhat
Ok. I have figured it out, for the server. I had to link my X server to /etc/X11/X but now xdm is acting funky. xdm will only bring up a login prompt after I login as root, and then close the X session. Any ideas as to what would be causing this, and how to resolve it? -Original Message- From: Rob Zietlow [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 05, 2001 5:12 AM To: Debian-User Subject: testing upgrade now problems with X I just upgraded to testing.

Anyone know of the location of a man or a HOWTO on setting up IPtables for the 2.4.X kernel. I would like to have that setup before I replace IP chains and goto the new kernel

Does anyone know of a good website that teaches and gives good examples for programming Shell scripts in bash? I have some in one of my Linux books, but only about 5 pages worth and only gives extreme basics
RE: have you seen this driver?
For the Aureal. Take a look on sourceforge.net I saw it out there when I had to get it. You will have to compile it yourself. It used to be at linux.aureal.com but they went out of business, but the driver modules are at sourceforge. I had no problems compiling and installing it and it worked great. -Original Message- From: D.

Outlook conversion
I was wondering if anyone knew of a program that converted a .pst Outlook file into something that a Linux email program like Kmail or Evolution can read. I want to totally convert over to Linux, but this is a big thing because I don't want to lose my hundreds of saved messages from the past couple months.
