Re: Earthlink Cable
True, it definately is cheaper than Comcast, but the only thing that is keeping me from switching to Earthlink is the fact that they recently deregulated(I think that is the correct term), meaning that Comcast no longer has to allow 3rd parties such as Earthlink over their lines. Hopefully for those on the Earthllink service, their ISP can keep up good relations with the media giant. Regards, Jeff Kirkland Travis Roy wrote: Anybody on the list use Earthlink's cable service?

In fact, I haven't played with it in a long time. But, I did some googling and found the following excerpt: Sendmail Validation The check_compat ruleset compares all senders and receiver pairs before mail is delivered. It validates the mail based on the results of the comparison. It checks to see if host A can legally send a message to host B. check_compat is called for all mail deliveries, not just SMTP transactions. It is used in the following situations: A set of users who are restricted from sending mail messages to external domains need to send mail messages to internal; domains. Both the sender and recipient addresses are checked to ensure that they are in the local domain. A particular user needs to ensure that he or she does not receive mail messages from a specific source. A particular host needs to ensure that external senders do not use that host as a a mail relay. The mail messages are screened based on the sender's hostname. The link to the page is: http://docs.hp.com/en/B2355-90685/ch04s09.html The first bullet point, which checks the validity of user accounts against the local domain sounds like what you are looking for.

One suggestion is that you have a cdrom and a hard drive on each chain. By having both the cdrom and the cd-writer on the same chain, you will run into problems should you try to copy a disk, drive to drive.

The CDROM is set as the secondary master, with the CDRW set as secondary slave. My intention is to run a tri-boot machine letting Slackware 8.1 and FreeBSD 4.6.2 split the second drive. I also have V-Com's System Commander 7.05 software available. I ran RedHat 5.x a few years ago, successfully sharing a single drive with windoze and using an older version of system commander. 1. Should I change the harddrives so that C:\ is primary master and D:\ is secondary master? 2. Should I use the System Commander software? 3. Should I install Slackware or FreeBSD first? Does it matter? This is a learning/re-learning experience, so I have no problem trying something and going back to scratch...any caveats, criticisms, or advice is appreciated.

OT: Interesting Site
I found this site today and have been going through it since: http://www.empowermentzone.com/ There is so much information on here, it is going to take quite a while to go through. I hope everyone finds it as interesting as I do. Regards, Jeff Kirkland ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
OpenPGP and GPG defeated?!?
I found this article on 'The Register' and thought it rather interesting: http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/26643.html Funny how this comes about as well as PGP having a hole described here: http://www.ananova.com/news/story/sm_648664.html?menu=new s.technology Regards, Jeff ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
