 Como deberia haber sabido que paquete faltaba? hay alguna lista en la
 web (yo no la he encontardo)


 Es un problema de dependencias. El paquete gnome-session debería
depender de libgdk-pixbuf-gnome2, que es el paquete que contiene la
librería en cuestión. El problema es que por alguna razón el paquete de
Ximian no contiene esa dependencia. Si las dependencias estuviesen
correctas no tendrías que haber tenido ningún problema, pues apt también
te hubiese bajado todos los paquetes necesarios.

 Que yo sepa no hay ninguna lista en la web que liste el contenido de
cada paquete, pues precisamente el modelo de dependencias que se usan en
el formato de paquetes .deb no lo necesita, al depender unos paquetes de
otros, en vez de lo que ocurre con los .rpm, que comprueban que tengas
instaladas las librerías, pero no te dicen en qué paquete(s) están esas
libreriás.

Buenas,

llevo varias semanas

algo lo escribo mal agradezco vuestras correcciones :-). Pos bien, ya ha

lo que creo que me hace falta. Pero tengo el problema del modem, tengo un supra 
56i pci interno y despus de buscar por Internet y escribir a varias personas 
(mirar tambin en los archivos de la lista) en todos sitios veo o me dicen lo 
mismo: "cmprate uno externo". Hombre, yo creo que debe haber otra solucin, 
no?, seguro que a ms de uno le ha pasado lo que a m y ha conseguido 
configurarlo. Bueno, lo que os pido es que si sabis cmo tengo que hacerlo, os 
agradecera que me lo dijeseis, y si no pistas o algo sobre cmo puedo

coazo que para Internet tenga que ir a gindos.

LaTeX y Word son *demasiado* diferentes al nivel que los veas. Lo más
cercano que puedes hacer es guardar tu .doc como texto y volverles a dar
formato con comandos de LaTeX. Habia por ahi un programita que intentaba
hacer esto, pero de nuevo, son demasiado diferentes como para que sea
posible.

En Linux puedes usar muchos procesadores de texto compatibles con el
formato Word, como el AbiWord y el KWord (ligeros, pequeños) o el
Staroffice (una suite completa).

word2x te genera un archivo latex (entre otros formatos) a partir de un 
.doc, pero seguramente tendrás que retocarlo luego a mano. Como punto de 
partida puede servir, pero dependiendo del .doc, la conversión no es del 
todo exacta.

 Yo tengo el kernel 2.2.19 pero con las opciones que me dijiste (las tiene
 todas) y probe con dos configuraciones de XF86Config-4 con salida de TV y sin
 salida de TV, poray me falta instalar algun paquete o algo por que no le
 encuentro la vuelta.

instala este paquete, a ver si soluciona algo

y en el kernel necesitas el agparts _y selecciona tu placa madre_ en el
submenú de agparts, quizás es esto, asegurate

Y debajo de agpparts tienes el Direct Redering Manager, selecciona la
Matrox

Creo que es porque lo han compilado con soporte de SSL, y por tanto
depende de las libssl, y sólo tienes que echarle un vistazo a la
política para ver que tiene que ir en non-US. Sólo podría estar fuera de
non-US si pudiese funcionar sin SSL, aunque estuviese compilado el
soporte. El problema es que eso es bastante difícil de hacer si está
enlazado con una librería. Creo que es algo que estuvieron intentando,
pero al final no les ha quedado más remedio que incluirlo en non-US

 La única forma sería hacer lo que hacen muchos programas (como el
lynx), tener dos versiones, una compilada con soporte SSL y la otra no.
Así estaría una en main y la otra en non-US.

De la política de Debian

 2.1.5 The non-US sections

Some programs with cryptographic program code need to be stored on the
non-US server because of United States export restrictions. Such
programs must be distributed in the appropriate non-US section, either
non-US/main, non-US/contrib or non-US/non-free.

This applies only to packages which contain cryptographic code. A
package containing a program with an interface to a cryptographic
program or a program that's dynamically linked against a cryptographic
library should not be distributed via the non-US server if it is capable
of running without the cryptographic library or program.

2001-05-05 Thread Fabian
Hola a todos,

Una dudua, en la seccion 2 del spanish-Howto donde comenta brevemente las 
distribuciones distribuciones de linux(/usr/share/doc/HOWTO/en-txt), dice
que Debian no es un sistem operativo completo, y que mientras tanto,
ofrece un Unix integrado por el nucleo del Linux y el software GNU.
Esto es asi, o el howto esta desactualizado.

Saludos Fabian

Ambas cosas. Debian no es sólo linux. Debian es (creo no equivocarme) el
proyectode crear un SO GNU (el centro de antención es Hurd), pero como el
núcleo proyectado iba para largo se utilizó el de linux.

La idea, si no me equivoco mucho, es proyectar la filosofía debian sobre varios
núcleos. Tenemos Debian Linux y Debian Hurd, aunque imagino que tendría una
gran aceptación algún tipo de Debian BSD.

Re: Samba

2001-05-05 Thread Imobach González Sosa
Yo no soy ningún experto en el tema de samba, pero creo que lo que debes hacer 
es crear un
usuario
con smbpasswd al que le das un nombre y una contraseña.

Entonces, en el login de red de windows (cuando te pregunta usuario y 
contraseña al
principio) pones
ese usuario y esa contraseña, y al acceder a entorno de red no te saldrá más lo 
del IPC.

Saludos.

Software Livre. Precisamos do seu apoio.

2001-05-05 Thread Emerson Val Silva

Sou Emerson Val, e moro em Feira de Santana no interior da Bahia. Gostaria em 
nome dos militantes do software livre no Brasil e em nome da democracia lhe 
fazer algumas sugestões e contar um pouco da história, que acho, você irá se 
interessar.

Há um movimento mundial sobre a questão dos softwares proprietários. Softwares 
proprietários são programas de computador em que o usuário deve pagar por cada 
cópia, dessa forma o programa não é de quem paga, mas da empresa que o 
desenvolveu. O usuário paga por uma licença de uso, e caso perca essa licença 
terá que comprar outra pra não cometer pirataria. Ninguém a não ser a empresa 
que o criou pode alterá-lo ou revendê-lo sem o consentimento dos fabricantes, e 
se houver falhas somente os fabricantes poderão consertá-las ou ocultá-las com 
propagandas enganossas se achar conveniente. Isso é o que a Microsoft, a mega 
empresa de Bill Gates, faz. A Microsoft é a ponta do bloco de gelo do monopólio 
de softwares.
Certa vez ouvi dizer que no seu programa foi um escritor, que dizia não gostar 
de computadores devido às telinhas azuis, as falhas inesperadas. Esse é um 
defeito antigo do Windows, que perdura desde a primeira versão do Windows 95, e 
que ainda existe. A Microsoft não consertou nada, mas faz muito marketing pra 
tentar denegrir a reputação do software livre.

O Movimento ao qual me refiro é o movimento de defesa ao software livre fundado 
pela Free Software Foundation (http://www.fsf.com), e que tem boas bases no 
Brasil pelo Comitê de Insentivo ao Software GNU e Alternativo 
(http://www.cipsga.org.br).
Software livre é todo software que é distribuído com código-fonte aberto e sem 
restrições ao uso e modificação, e que normalmente é distribuído junto a uma 
licença de software que se chama GPL General Public License, ou Licença Pública 
Geral. Essa licença evita que o software seja patenteato e consequentemente que 
tenha um dono, então software livre quer dizer software sem proprietários, e 
apesar da contradição isso significa software para todos.
Nós, militantes do software livre, acreditamos que assim como na matemática, 
onde podemos utilizar formulas criadas por mestres da matematica como Tartaglia 
e Einstein, o software deve ter sua distribuição livre, com seu código aberto e 
sem proprietários. Se essa lei  de software  fosse aplicada à matemática então 
seríamos  obrigados a pagar uma licença de uso sempre que fossemos  resolver 
nossa lição de casa, mas é isso que um software é, matemática, algorítimos que 
são transformados  em codigo de máquina, cálculos e interpretações lógicas.

O sistema de patentes atrasa a humanidade. Se todos os governos tivessem a 
integração que a comunidade GNU tem, com certeza estaríamos anos luz afrente do 
tempo.

Segundo estimativas o governo brasileiro gasta quase 2 (dois) Bilhões de Reais 
por ano em renovação de software. Se o software fosse livre, então teríamos 
quase 2 Bilhões pra poder aplicar à saúde ou aumentar o salário mínimo. O 
Software livre tem qualidade superior ou igual aos softwares proprietários, e 
pra quase todo software proprietário existe um similar livre.

Uma proposta do deputado Walter Pinheiro do PT da Bahia está no congresso e 
ninguém toma a iniciativa de pô-la em votação. Essa proposta visa a utilização 
de software livre em todos os órgãos do governo e em todos os níveis.

Uma das cláusulas da licitação de aquisição de software do governo é de que a 
empresa proprietária deve ter sede em Brasília, mas só a Microsoft tem sede em 
Brasília. Um amigo do time Debian (http://www.debian,org) me disse que o 
contrato que a Microsoft tem com o governo termina só em 2026.

Reclama-se que o Brasil não tem mão-de-obra especializada e ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, 
ba, ba. Tem sim, mas o governo só vê futuro fora daqui, é o Brasil fortalecendo 
a NASDAQ.

Segundo o que te escrevo, sugiro para que entreviste algum dos militantes do 
software livre, como Djalma Valois Filho do CIPSGA, Richard Stallmam da Free 
Software Foundation, ou até mesmo o Deputado Walter Pinheiro.

Por favor, mande um e-mail para o Djalma: [EMAIL PROTECTED], ou procure mais 
informações em http://www.cipsga.org.br.
Interessante também seria acessar os sites http://www.debian.org e 
http://feiraba.virtualave.net/screenshots.html.

Esse e-mail foi inteiramente escrito utilizando software livre.

Bash: Substituição de variável dentro de outra

2001-05-05 Thread Gleydson Mazioli da Silva
Oi,

Estou programando um bash script que necessita do seguinte recurso (como
exemplo):
host:~# export VARIAVEL1=SHELL
host:~# echo ${VARIAVEL1}
SHELL
host:~# echo $${VARIAVEL1}
$SHELL
host:~# echo `echo $${VARIAVEL1}`
$SHELL
^
O que quero é ao invés de sair $SHELL saia /bin/bash como se usasse o 
comando echo $SHELL diretamente. Estive pesquisando na página de 
manual do bash em procura de alguma referência sobre outras formas 
de exibição de variáveis mas não tive muito sucesso...

A expressão

echo $${VARIAVEL1}

vai expandir no sinal $ ($), no valor de ${VARIABLE1} (SHELL) e na
cadeia vazía . É isso é o que o shell lhe deu. Provavelmente não é a
solução ótima, mas essencialmente pode fazer para forçar a segunda
expansão:

V=$SHELL
W='$V'
echo `eval echo $W`
/bin/sh
V=outra cadeia
echo `eval echo $W`
outra cadeia

  Boa tarde pessoal.
 
  Tenho uma maquina que esta atuando como servidor mas esta sem no-break.
 
  Apos muitas quedas de energia cheguei a um estado em que sempre que a
 maquina volta ela pede a senha de root e pede para fazer um  fsck na
 particoes... Isso ja aconteceu eu outra maquina e, a cada nova queda de
 energia, o tempo que eu passava pressionando yes para o fsck aumentava
 mais e mais.
 
  Gostaria de saber se existe uma forma de contornar isso ate' que eu
 consiga sensibilizar alguem de que o no-break e' imprescindivel.

Acho que deixar o último campo do /etc/fstab (e.g. [1]) igual a 0
resolve o seu problema no sentido de impedir que o disco seja checado na 
inicialização, entretanto se existem erros no seu disco eles continuarão
lá ;-)

Se isto não funcionar: man tune2fs . Acho que lá você consegue controlar
a freqüência em que seu disco é checado.

device3dfx

2001-05-05 Thread Greg Steele
I am having a difficult time compiling the device3dfx driver.

Part of the problem, I'm sure, is my lack of knowledge of how to
correctly setup the kernel-header and kernel-source directories
under Debian.

I am running kernel-2.2.19-ide.

I have

/usr/src/kernel-source-2.2.19
/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.2.19-ide
and  a link from /usr/src/linux to /usr/src/kernel-source-2.2.19

I issue  the following commands

KSRC=/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.2.19-ide ./buildpkg

from /usr/src/modules/device3dfx/debian

for one, it cannot find the Makefile since this is in kernel-sources
directory

The big problem is that I get the following compilation errors

make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/modules/device3dfx'
gcc -O2 -m486 -fomit-frame-pointer -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__
-I/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.2.19-ide/include -pipe -fno-strength-reduce

Can you tell me what I am doing incorrectly.

I have tried compile with setting KSRC=/usr/src/kernel-source-2.2.19.

This dies even quicker because in cannot find version.h

Thanks.

P.S. /usr/src/kernel-headers-2.2.19/include/asm is linked to
/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.2.19/asm-i386

  usually helpful self again/sarcasm about offering content obscured in
  javascript.[0]
  
  So I emailed support to ask for a user manual. I'm sent back an
  'individual' boilerplate response suggesting I power-cycle the modem and
  reboot my computer. Yeh...
 
 What exactly are you hoping to accomplish by acquiring a user manual
 for your cable modem?
 
 Cable modems are completely unlike DSL modems regarding user-tunable
 bits.  For better or for worse, most of the cable modem's
 functionality is meant to be controlled by the cable operator.

Let's see.. There are status lights marked with incomprehensable
symbols. I think I've puzzled three of them out, but the fourth remains
unlit and I have no idea what it means. I also want to turn off the LOUD
chiming sound it makes when it syncs to the cable. The installer guy
said it was a user-settable option.

 BTW, I don't believe @Home is forcing anyone to use a proxy (though
 they like it if you do; it lowers their aggregate demand for external
 bandwidth.)  IMO, most funny business with @Home is a result of
 their rapid growth.  Besides, @Home has to depend on the local cable
 operator to uphold quality considerations for the last mile.

I like using a proxy too. Heck, I HAVE to run a proxy on my firewall box
for my internal machines. And I like the idea of keeping external
aggregate bandwidth down. Hopefully it'll help keep me off their
'naughty' list for daring to have mail-transport-agent and ssh-server
installed so I can actually USE my computer. ;)

RE: More Sid/unstable wierdness.

2001-05-05 Thread Marc Wilson
devpts is the Unix98 Pty (pseudo-tty) support that more and more
applications are coming to depend upon.  You want this.  There's a script in
/etc/init.d that will mount it for you if you do not explicitly do it in
/etc/fstab.

And of course everyone knows what /proc is.

Subject:More Sid/unstable wierdness.

I am still battling a recent Sid upgrade that fried my test site file
system. My main problem is that the kernel boots into runlevel2 with the
/ file system mounted as read-only. I tried several ideas (thanks Osamu)
to remount the system to no avail. I decided to try to find exactly what
is going on by getting all of the mount info.
-
$mount
/dev/hdc1 on / type ext2 (rw, errors=remount-ro,errors=remount-ro)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type pts (rw, gid=5, mode=620)
---stuff snipped--
The rest of the output looked ok. What is the last line? I have not ever
seen that before. I have NOT installed/enabled any other file system
than ext2 for my kernel. I seem to remember avoiding something like this
when I compiled the kernel, so what is it doing in my system? Any ides.
Thanks.

'chroot /unstable apt-get upgrade'

What happens is that all of the proper files on /unstable are downloaded

get an error message saying

file audit

recently for some unknown reason my /usr partition was corrupted.
running it through fsck, i answered 'y' to fix many, many errors.  my
system now appears to be fine, however there are scattered files that
had their permissions, sizes, owners, etc. changed to various strange
things.  as i've been updating packages, i'm finding these files and
fixing them, but i'm wondering if there might be a faster way.  dpkg
--audit seems to only check for the existence of files, not their
correct sizes/permissions/etc.  does anyone know of a way to do a
thorough audit of all installed packages, short of manually
uninstalling/reinstalling them?

User permissions for an ext2 partition

Hi Debian gurus,

I have a data partition mounted in /data. I want to read and write
the whole partition as a regular user. What should I put into my
/etc/fstab?

Right now I have:
___/etc/fstab___
# file systemmount pointtype  options   dump  pass

/dev/hda9 /ext2 defaults,errors=remount-ro  0   1

/dev/hda10  noneswapsw  
   00

proc/proc   procdefaults
0   0

/cdrom/cdromsupermount fs=iso9660,dev=/dev/cdrom   0  0

/dev/hda6 /home  ext2 rw0

/dev/hda7 /usr/local ext2 rw0   
2

/dev/hda8 /mandrake  ext2 rw0   
2

/dev/hda1 /win   vfat user,showexec,quiet,umask=0 0 0

/dev/hda5 /data  ext2  rw  0 2
__

The last line is the partition I want to read and write as a normal
user. Just like what I did with /dev/hda1, the umask option solves
this issue, but that is only for fat partitions. What is the
equivalent for ext2?

Thanks in advance. -- Viktor 





xmms and audio cd playing

2001-05-05 Thread Viktor Lakics
Hi All,

I used xmms with Mandrake for playing almost everything, mp3, audio
CD, oggs wavs etc.

Under Debian, I cannot play Audio CDs with xmms. (dedicated CD
players work!).

Xmms has a audio CD plugin, which I enabled, set the cdrom pointing
to the right dir, and now what? How can I tell xmms to play the
audio CDs? Play file shows nothing, play directory ditto, play
location seems doing nothing as well.

Under Mandrake, I was even able to mount the audio cd (in the
playlist it showed the sounds as track_n_.cda, theerfore I just
played them as files (play directory or file).

This lead to us to a more general question: what is the difference
of audio an data cds? Even before I patched the kernel for supemount
under Debian I could not mount audio CDs (got the message wrong
fstype, bad option blablalabla..), while data cds are mounted fine.


Anyone has the answer?


Thanks in advance. -- Viktor

Well, it booted you into a minimal shell so that you can run fsck 
manually as it suggested. Instead of trying to look at running 
processes, type


fsck /dev/hdb1

at the root prompt. This will run fsck manually on your root 
partition (I guess).


Then, just exit (logout). Your boxen will reboot automatically.

Hopefully, it will work like before.

Don't mount the CD if it's an audio CD.
And put yourself in the group your CD drive (/dev/cdrom, not the directory

Problem with Joystick and devfs

2001-05-05 Thread Jeremy Rosen

Hello everybody

I am using a testing debian with a 2.4.3 kernel, and devfs installed, but I 
can't make my joystick work. 
My joystick is installed on the gameport of my sound card : sb 64 pci

devfs dosn't seem to detect it. Here are the few clues I have.

I think I have installed the proper drivers in the kernel :
the one for my sound blaster pci 64
the one for core input
the one for core joystick
My analogous joystick two button
a game port which seemed to be mine (ns 558)

I have found a few more things : When I compile the sound driver as a module, I 
have a message telling me that the joystick is not installed. I can have a 
message telling me that it is installed when I load the module with the proper 
option, but I still dont have any joystick device in my /dev or /dev/input


any idea ?

Thanks

Jeremy

postfix not easy to install

2001-05-05 Thread mdevin
I am having trouble getting postfix to install on my potato 2.2r3
system.

It did work initially but then after rebooting the computer, it won't
start again.

I get the following in my mail.log file:
postfix-script: warning: /var/spool/postfix/etc/resolv.conf and
/etc/resolv.conf differ
postfix-script: starting the Postfix mail system
postfix/master[1011]: fatal: bind 127.0.0.1 port 25: Address already in
use

The first error seemed weird since both
/var/spool/postfix/etc/resolv.conf and /etc/resolv.conf were essentially
the same but not exactly:
# cat /etc/resolv.conf

nameserver 61.9.128.13

nameserver 61.9.128.16

# cat /var/spool/postfix/etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 61.9.128.13
nameserver 61.9.128.16

Note the difference in spacing.  So I copied the /etc/resolv.conf to
/var/spool/postfix/etc/resolv.conf and then this error dissappeared -
but I think this will recur every time I reboot - so how do I fix this
permanently?

But still the other error remained about port 25 already in use.  I did
ps aux and no exim running.  I have never had any other smtp daemon on
this system other than exim.  I even tried stopping inetd and starting
postfix but still no worky and same error: fatal: bind 127.0.0.1 port
25: Address already in use.

I had to reinstall exim to post this email but would really like to give
postfix a go.

Any ideas people using postfix?

Thanks.

Mark.

Stopping vim from auto-indenting

2001-05-05 Thread mdevin
When I use vim to edit a file, then copy and paste some text into this
file, the text gets automatically indented more than it should.  Take
the following example:
Edit an empty file with vim, then try an paste in the following text:
!## NETSCAPE
  Netscape*drawingArea.translations:  #replace\
  Btn1Down:   ArmLink()   \n\
  Btn2Down:   ArmLink()   \n\
  ~ShiftBtn1Up:   ActivateLink()  \n\
  ~ShiftBtn2Up:   ActivateLink(new-window)  \
  DisarmLink()\n\
  ShiftBtn1Up:ActivateLink(save-only)  \

And it ends up looking like:
!## NETSCAPE
  Netscape*drawingArea.translations:  #replace\
Btn1Down:   ArmLink()   \n\
  Btn2Down:   ArmLink()   \n\
~ShiftBtn1Up:   ActivateLink()  \n\
  ~ShiftBtn2Up:
ActivateLink(new-window)  \
DisarmLink()\n\
  ShiftBtn1Up:

How do you stop this from happening?

 Yes, a design intent of RealPlayer is to obfuscate the process of saving

 There are two forms of Realplayer media sources:  files and streams.
 You _can_ save the realplayer files (usually *.ram extension).
 Realplayer streams (*.ra) are slightly trickier.
 
 There are a few utilities which set up a proxy sound device and redirect

quicker the dd goes, though floppies are so slow anyway, I don't think
it matters much.

BTW bs=72k results in a count=20 on a 1.44 floppy

That is the inverse of the command I use to make boot floppiesa and

install screensaver with setuid root

2001-05-05 Thread Alex Suzuki
Hi all,

I'm running testing/woody and recently downloaded the xscreensaver package,
including a very cool screensaver called sonar. It is able to ping other
hosts and show the distance in a sonar-like style. The problem is that it
can only do that if it has been installed setuid root.

here's what it's manpage says:
 In order to use the ping sensor, this program must be
  installed as setuid root, so that it can create an ICMP socket.

How do I do that?

Thanks for any help.

Flightgear with joystick

2001-05-05 Thread Christoph Simon
Hi!

I'm trying to run flightgear with an USB Sidewinder on debian sid. I
installed the joystick package and provided the relevant drivers in a
custom kernel 2.4.4. First I ran jstest which seemed to react
properly, although showing for the first two axis in a range of 2^10
rathern than that of 2^16 as I was told should be. Than I ran jscal
but get the answer:

jscal: wrong version
JsCal was compiled for driver version: 2.0.0
Current running driver version: 2.1.0

I'm not sure which version it meant; it can't be the kernel driver as
sidewinder.c has version 1.18. Then I installed jscalibrator which
seemd to work nicely and generated a ~/.joystick file. As this didn't
work in flightgear, I asked on that mailing list where I was told that
the problem is with plib. Sid seems to have plib version 1.2 and 1.3
available, where 1.2 is said to replace 1.3, but both can be
installed. This wouldn't help anything, as flightgear depends
explicilty on version 1.2.

As I don't know which package is actually wrong, I also don't know
against which package I should file a bug. Any ideas?

wait till end of write, how?

2001-05-05 Thread Alexander Steinert
Given that a W2k client copies a large file into a samba share on a
Linux server, how can a process (e.g. shell script) that will read this
file wait until the file is totally transfered?

The problem is that the file is (on the server) accessible for reading
from the moment the client starts to copy.

My first guess is to try something like `echo   file' and hope that
linux throws an error, because file is already opened for writing by the
samba daemon. But maybe samba writes large files in blocks (i.e. opens
and closes the file several times), who knows?

Yes, that was mostly a joke, though the much smaller file size is nice.
But snarf still is my first choice for such a program.

I don't know that I'll end up adopting the package, though.  From the

Postfix or Exim for Controlling Headers

2001-05-05 Thread mdevin
Which of Postfix or Exim is easier to customise?

Basically, I started looking into this when I noticed that headers from
my emails contain local usernames.  I have setup address rewriting in
Exim (currently) and tried with Postfix also.

Currently in exim.conf I have this rule for rewriting addresses:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\
{$value}fail} Ffrsw
This rewrites the envelope From field, as well as the From, Reply-To,
and Sender headers.
And the w flag makes it rewrite the whole address not just the working
part.

I have this in /etc/email-addresses:
algemon: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

But still, if I send mail with mailx from the command line like:
cat file.txt | mailx -s Subject [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I get headers like this:
Subject: Subject
Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
From: algemon,,, [EMAIL PROTECTED]

How do I stop the from field containing the login name?  I want it to
just be [EMAIL PROTECTED]  Would it be easier to do this with
Postfix or Exim?

Thanks

Mark.

I have similar messages if I try to connect to my_server/horde/imp:

I've tried to fill /etc/horde/local.inc correctly but I may be wrong...

php+apache+postgres seem to see each other: phpinfo() outputs some things
about postgresql.

Also my_server/horde/test.php3 looks nice, it sees php, phplib and it is
able to create a HordeSession.
But the PHPlib test fails...

Thanks in advance for any help,
Romain

Jim,

Check out Dwarf's Guide to Debian:  http://people.debian.org/~psg/ddg/

Also, in practical daily use I almost always stay with either
'apt-get' or 'dpkg', though other people will have different personal
preferences.  So you might also want to just read 'man apt-get' and
'man dpkg'.  Also see contents of '/usr/share/doc/apt/'.

Hope this helps,

Daniel

i installed portsentry http://www.psionic.com/abacus/portsentry to deal
with this situation.  when @home scans my machine for 'naughty' (i.e.
functional) ports, the request gets dropped into the bit bucket.  still
need to do some tweaking but seems to be working so far.  combined with
psionic's logcheck, i get emails of any portscanning activity, too.
