Re: [SLUG] configure parent cache for squid
I'm trying to setup a personal squid proxy at work. The parent cache is a MS proxy server that requires authentication.

Re: [SLUG] email attack?
The same thing happened to me a couple of years ago, I got about 60 undelivered emails returned to me.

Re: [SLUG] email attack?
I've seen a couple of these come through with 1000s of messages bounced back to my server, some of them with 100s of addresses per message, all at the same ISP. What amazed me about these was how few people actually believed that the spam came from that address - you basically don't get complaints. I've had more trouble from spammers who put urls in their spam which point to my site because some page said something agreeing with the point of view they're pushing.

[SLUG] Virtual Hosts
Hi All, My IP registrar support me to have wildcards in my url and all those will be pointed to one IP address. I have apache set to run virtual hosts. My virtual hosts at the moment are www.mydomain.com.au and me.mydomain.com.au. www.mydomain.com.au also has a server alias mydomain.com.au. But when I type a URL like blahblah.mydomain.com.au, it still opens www.mydomain.com.au. How can I prevent this from going there and to display an error page when anything else is typed in the wildcard location? Thanks many. ~Mahen. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug

Have a generic virtual host setup as the first one. Something like the name of the server or somesuch. What apache does is that if there's no specific virtual host entry for the particular host, it decides to use the first one that is available for that ip. -- Martin's distress was in contrast to the bitter satisfaction of some of his fellow marines as they surveyed the scene.
