Re: Mail question (re-building)

I now managed to get both rpm -bc /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/mailx.spec and rpm -bi /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/mailx.spec to execute without errors. But /var/tmp/mailx-root/bin/mail is identical to /bin/mail What am I missing _now_? Thanks Dorit

Backup for many linux machines

Hi, I'm looking for information on backing up multiple linux machines using one central "backup server". Due to the volume of data, NFS mounting the file systems and then backing them up as if they were local will NOT do. The backup server does not have to be linux (although I would prefer it

Re: Backup for many linux machines

You may try Arcserve (although the server is not Unix based) - but it got Linux client. Backupexec - same as Arcserve (although I don't trust it as Arcserve). Hetz "Geoffrey S. Mendelson" wrote: Hi, I'm looking for information on backing up multiple linux machines using one central

Re: mail problem -act2

I finally got hold of the person in charge of /etc/sendmail.cf After I explained the problem (again! ) he said Great, then there's no problem because everything works just like it should. Internally, there's no reason to use the fully qualified domain name. At this point I see no other option
