[expert] Netmeeting server
Hi guys, I am just starting to look into starting a netmeeting server for our companies tech guys to communicate... netmeeting seems to be the go because the requisite OS's have clients available.. my problems are as follows.. 1. total inexperiance in netmeeting and H323 :-) 2. Some of the workstations that will be client are NAT machines.. ie they don't have public IP's. 3. one office is 5000km away from the rest.. so this is a good reason to use netmeeting over the net in and of itself. Now I'm researching this on google now.. and there are netmeeting howtoos available, but I thought I'd ask here before I go looking into generic solutions, as if there is an easy way on mandrake9.0 and I don't use it.. I'll kick myself later. Can anyone help me out here?? basically I would like any of the netmeeting clients to log onto our central netmeeting server and be able to see/chat/collaborate in an easy transparent fashion.. Is it possible? rgds Frank Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

Where did you pick up that convention? Emacs, actually. It's a convention at the application level, not at the file system. So if the application doesn't support it, it doesn't support it. I suspect what's actually happened in this case is that the configuration has replaced the default location with /etc/man.config in the binary (so the binary doesn't support the above convention), but *appended* it in the man page (because the man build script gets it wrong). However, simply being aware this sort of thing can happen makes it much easier to read the thing correctly :-) However, the Mandrake 8.2 man comes with the manpath command: manpath - determine user's search path for man pages So you can simplify all this to: MANPATH=`manpath`:/new/dir/goes/here Yes, I could do that. However, the only reason I am playing with MANPATH at all is that I have developed some bash functions to swap versions of Perl. I modify PATH to get at the one I want. I was also modifying MANPATH. I may just decide to just use perldoc instead. Or maybe not. Depends on how much I want to muck around. I have real work to do to. Well, if you want to replace your MANPATH with the default value, and then append something to it: unset MANPATH MANPATH=`manpath`:/new/dir/goes/here But that'll upset anybody who's modified it from the value you last set it to.

Re: [expert] crossover plugin
Hi, For me every thing works fine. In principle when you install crossover, a directory called plugins is automatically created in ~/.mozilla or ~/.netscape directory (it depends on the browser you installed). As your installation is done as root therefore this plugins directory is installed as /root/.mozilla/plugins (or in ~/.netscape). Once these things verified, copy that directory (I mean /root/.mozilla/plugins) to any normal user home directory. Now, every thing should go all right.

True in that ACPI function is not compilied into the ML kernel, as indicated in file /boot/config. But I've tested two motherboards with acpi and the apmd program works fine with these motherboards. The motherboards used were 1. Abit KG7-Raid and 2. Abit VP6. Both systems will go into suspend and shutdown fully and correctly. I should state that the Abit VP6 will when not booting with the smp kernel as apm is turned off in this kernel as not being safe. Larry Matthew O.

those little details that will tick off the new users they're trying to
attract. Don't get me wrong; I'm a strong Mandrake supporter; but at
least one release in every major release (since 6.x) are less new user

man urpmi.removemedia states:
names is a list of names you first told to urpmi.addmedia
but, I never used urpmi.addmedia; Mdk did that... all I did was format
the HD, install 8.2 and update it to 9.0... so I don't know the magic
incantation that's expected... the error gives me the feeling that the
tools won't help...
I tried moving the 8.2 file out of /var/lib/urpmi but that didn't help
either.

Re: [expert] Does cooker 9.1 correct i845(x) IDE problems?
i845 being intel's latest chipset is part of the problem. It's causing problems I'm told with WinXP for some as well. I do remember some discussion on the cooker list about the time it got unfrozen (from the 9.0 release.) on this and the discussion may have been taken offlist. (however with as busy as that list is... they could still be discussing it and I'd miss it :) ) But there might be something there.. I've also seen some stuff in the kernel mailing list. But since I only read what relates to me now... I didn't pay attention. James On Mon, 2002-11-25 at 07:27, Nelson Bartley wrote: Hmm...

did you delete the 8.2 entries from urpmi's config?
Shouldn't that have been done by 9.0...? I've always done rpm -ivh

grief, and now urpmi...
snip
Anyway, unless there is some implied version info, there is nothing
specifying version in this (unless I'm blind):
One thing about urpmi that doesn't thrill me is that its configuration
is split between /etc/urpmi and /var/lib/urpmi and it's consequently
fairly difficult to configure without using a tool. If you look around
in /var/lib/urpmi you'll find that it has information about the contents
of the disks there, which is why you really should just delete the
entries for the 8.2 disks.
um don't forget /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg .. need to remove the
entries there or you will keep getting errors about not being able to
find disks when you are doing searches. best method
man urpmi.removemedia
HOWEVER whatever you do do not ... repeat do not ,type
urpmi.removemedia and hit return (without any args)... this is a lot
like typing rm -Rf * you never know what you will lose.

If you want to load RedHat with Reiser just partition and do mkreiserfs under MDK ... then install RH to the drive... it will work with and use the reiserfs it just won't let you create reiserfs.

James There's a bunch of us usin 9.1 cooker as our daily driver. Except for a few minor glitches that have never lasted more'n a day till the next updates are on the mirrors, I've found it to be just as solid as a stock 9.0 install, but with a better XFree86 4.2.1 (some 3d/accel for nVidia cards with the open source driver) and KDE 3.1rc3 (very nice).

[expert] remote Cups printing via network
Here is another FYI: I set up CUPS service on a server running LM 9.0. The security level was Standard. The CUPS admin on the client-side workstation saw the remote printer. All was ok. I could print from my workstation (LM 8.1) to the server-side remote printer via CUPS my network. So, I decided to raise the security level of the server using the Mandrake Control Center (from Standard to Higher). All went ok for raising the security level! Then I tried printing to the remote server printer. The job would appear in the client-side CUPS WWW Admin page and then disappear as if being properly accepted by the remote server-side CUPS server. However, the server-side CUPS server never showed the print job. NADA, Zilch, zero! So, I lowered the server's security to Standard from Higher and the ability to remote print via CUPS resumed. I then tried a security level of High. CUPS remote printing was ok. I then raised it to Higher again. CUPS remote printing was broken, again. According to the Mandrake Center, a security level of Higher is best for servers. I found that a very high security level BREAKS CUPS remote (via network) printing. So, a compromise is in order Anyhow, I just wanted to share this item with everyone. Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
