HI Everybody,
I want to send out this early reminder about our upcoming WLUG meeting.
It will be held on Wednesday, June 7th at 7:00 PM in the Access Grid
room on the WPI campus in Worcester, MA USA.
At this meeting, Patrick Enright from Sybase Inc. will be talking about
Sybase on Linux. Patrick was kind enough to send me a bunch of Sybase
tee shirts, CDs, posters, etc. which I'll bring to the meeting and give
away to the membership.
After the meeting, we'll go out and have pizza, soda, and great
conversation at the Tech Pizza Restaurant on Highland Street.
I look forward to seeing you there!
Andy

Hi All,
I'm running ubuntu (brezzy), and I just shot myself in the foot....
I went to add my username to a new group, but forgot to include the
other groups that I belong to in the command. The command I used was
'sudo usermod -G <new-group> <my-username>'. Now I only belong to
<new-group>. That removed my username from the other groups I belonged
to, including the admin group.
Is there a way undo what I did? I do have a copy of /etc/group before
the change.
Thanks,
-Chuck

Has anyone ever gotten a linux box to speak to a MS SQL server?
I am only assuming i need to configure an odbc DSN from linux to MSSQL, but am not successful yet.
The end goal is to get phpBB2 to talk to my existing MSSQL database.
In order for that to happen, apache has to use php and php has to use an odbc connection to MS
SQL.
Well, php in apache is working now, and php is set to use MS SQL.
isql -s SERVER NAME PWD connects me to my MS SQL database just fine, but iodbctest is failing.
I don't know enough to know what is wrong.
Any help would be greatly apreciated!

*/Hi, I logged into WebHost Manger on our server today and was presented
with this message:
Important Notice: Incompatible versions of Mysql 4.0.x and NPTL based
systems./*
If you are running a newer linux system which is NPTL based (CentOS 4,
Fedora 3+, RHE 4, etc) and are having problems with MySQL 4.0.x
(versions later then 4.0.23*), we recommend upgrading to MySQL 4.1.x as
we have determined that there are compatibility issues on these platforms.
We're running RHE4 (which _is_ NPTL based) and MySQL 4.0.26
Can anyone point me to more information about this issue so I can
determine if we need to upgrade.
Thanx,
Michael Z
Hi All
I upgraded by laptop from 'breezy' to 'dapper'. It looks like the hald
does not accept the --retain-privileges argument, even though the
upgrade tool added it to the /etc/default/hal file. Now the hald won't
start. Also, my USB thumb drives won't automount. I'm thinking it may be
related to the hald problem.
If I run 'sudo hald --retain-privileges restart', the command fails with
the help screen for the command.
Has anyone else out there seen this problem? Anyone got a fix?
I can always comment out the 'DAEMON-OPT=--retain-privileges' line in
the /etc/default/hal file, so the hald starts without error, but the USB
drives still don't automount.
Thanks,
-Chuck
Since it sounds like noone else has responded to your question, I'll give it a shot; even though I don't use Evolution. If Evolution stores emails in clear text, and I bet it does then this might work. You could use grep to try and locate one of your past emails some thing like:
grep -rlF TEXT ~/*
(From the command prompt.) Replace TEXT with an unusual sentance in one of the emails in your folders. This should give you a sense of where the file is located. Once you figure out where the folders are you should be able to simply copy them to your server. I've done this with Thunderbird (from a win machine to a Linux box no less) and it worked well.
If all else fails you might be able to find help on the evolution website.
