Re: [gentoo-user] Qmail and Spamassassin won't integrate
I run spamassassin with exim, so can't offer all that much help, but
as for attempt 1 you may try running:
spamc -R < {some file containing full source of a sample email}
to make sure spamassassin is running correctly. It should spit back a
score and a possibly a list of tests failed, depending on how
spamassassin is configured. if you don't get this, or get a score
like "0/0", something is wrong with your spamassassin setup.
Also, you don't want the "-P" option anymore, it is deprecated and is
the default behaviour of spamassassin now. And you definitely don't
want it with spamc, since it is an invalid option. And yes, you do
want to use "spamc" over "spamassassin" for performance reasons.

Re: [gentoo-user] Odd problem with OpenSSH
Try adding a: LogLevel VERBOSE or LogLevel DEBUG to /etc/ssh/sshd_config and restarting the ssh server, and see if it gives you any more info.
[gentoo-user] Getting ctrl-left/ctrl-right to jump backward/forward by word in non-x console
I just noticed that on all my Gentoo boxes, you can't jump around by word using ctrl-arrow_key in the non-x console. It works fine in xterm/Eterm/etc. while running X, but doesn't directly on the console. I haven't had a chance yet to try it on another distro. Does anyone know how to get this to work? Here's the backward-word/forward-word lines from my /etc/inputrc: # gnome-terminal (escape + arrow key) "\e[5C": forward-word "\e[5D": backward-word # konsole / xterm / rxvt (escape + arrow key) "\e\e[C": forward-word "\e\e[D": backward-word # konsole (alt + arrow key) "\e[1;3C": forward-word "\e[1;3D": backward-word # aterm / eterm (control + arrow key) "\eOc": forward-word "\eOd": backward-word # xterm "\e[1;5C": forward-word "\e[1;5D": backward-word

Can anyone tell me what I need to update to get it to be able to handle the 4.4? I checked my libxml2(I have version 2.6.26) and libxslt(I have version 1.1.17) and they both seem to be up to date.

Re: [gentoo-user] Server installation
meewi, One other thing to be careful of is always making sure you have networking configured before each reboot to make sure the new partition/setup you boot into works correctly. It would be a bummer to get gentoo completely partitioned and setup correctly, but forget to change /etc/conf.d/net to tell it to use a static ip (if for instance your hosted machine is supposed to use a static ip) and have it boot into gentoo but not have networking working. If you decide to give it a go, let use know how it turns out. I'd be interested in pitfalls and gotcha's you run into in case I need to do the same thing in the future.Tim
Re: [gentoo-user] Server installation
I've thought about doing this sort of thing in the past and I think it would be pretty tricky if you want to do this completely remotely. (meaning not using an installation cd) This is how I thought about doing it: Resize the partitions on your current hosting server to free up enough space to create a temporary partition to install gentoo to. So for example if your current setup is the following running redhat:/dev/sda1 - /boot (256MB) /dev/sda2 - swap (1GB)/dev/sda3 - / (80GB redhat)you would want to resize so you can do the following:/dev/sda1 - /boot (256MB) /dev/sda2 - swap (1GB) /dev/sda3 - / (75GB redhat)/dev/sda4 - /mnt/gentoo (5GB temp to install gentoo to)then you basically follow the handbook instructions as though you have already booted from the minimal installation cd and install gentoo to /mnt/gentoo, but don't reformat the /dev/sda1 partition. Then, rather than emerging grub, just modify your existing /boot/grub/menu.1st and add a default entry for booting off of /dev/sda4 for gentoo. Reboot and you should boot into your new temporary gentoo installation on /dev/sda4. You can now get rid of /dev/sda1-3, create new partitions however you like (excluding the 5GB /dev/sda4 which you are currently running off of) format them, and follow the handbook instructions as though you just booted from the minimal installation cd. Once you've done this and rebooted into your newly installed gentoo, you can delete /dev/sda4 and recapture that space to whatever partition you really installed gentoo to. The problem I see with this is you would be editing the fs tables of a drive you are currently running off of. If that doesn't work I guess you could set up a boot option that uses a RAM filesystem for the root /, and then you wouldn't be running off of any drives and could therefore fdisk to your hearts content. Whatever you decide, you should probably do a test run on a box you have locally, since one screwup means you or someone else is going to have to physically be at the hosted server to fix it.

Re: [gentoo-user] Fake Dual-Head with VNC?
Yeah, Synergy sounds like x2x or x2vnc, both of which I had already looked at.

[gentoo-user] Fake Dual-Head with VNC?
Anybody know if this is possible? I have a single-head graphics cardcapable of doing 2048x1536. I want to start X with a virtual desktopof 2048x768, make my ViewPort be the left half of said desktop, startx11vnc using the "-clip" option so that it only shows the right half of said desktop, and then use an old beater laptop to act as a view-onlyVNC client that connects to the x11vnc instance. I think it will work,my only question is is there a way to prevent the ViewPort from moving around in X as you move the mouse?Tim
