I have a compaq EN pII350, I had one 40gb Maxtor hard drive installed and suse was running fine then I added a second 40gb Western Digital hard drive. Both of them run at 7500rpm. There are a couple of things that seam out of wack. Firest when i install only the WD as the master the computer only gives me the bios screne and nothing else. But when I have the SD set as slave adn the Maxtor as teh master it seams to detec both drives. then i go through the whold Suse install. It dects both HD drives and therwe sizes properly. After it installs and configures everyting it starts the system is fine. The problem arizes the first tiem you stry to restart the system. All it does is go through the BIOS and nest it trys to start the system but all it displays is "li". Please help I have trited many diffrent things to get it to work and am runnig out of ideas. -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ .

if you enable iptables support, ipchains support cannot be enabled. so if the kernel was built with iptables built in, ipchains is not going to happen on the box ... but if you built both as modules, you can unload the iptables one and load the ipchains one ... but they are mutually exclusive ... -mike ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charles R.

To double check though, do this: $ grep ^Mlocal /etc/mail/sendmail.cf Mlocal, P=/usr/bin/procmail, F=lsDFMAw5:/|@qSPfhn9, S=EnvFromL/HdrFromL, R=EnvToL/HdrToL, If you get that line back with procmail get rid of the .forward stuff and your .procmailrc should just work. -- Randomly Generated Tagline: "As a general rule, don't solve puzzles that open portals to Hell." - Unknown

Procmail setup

by Jim Lund

Hi, I'm trying to configure SpamAssassin to run on my RH7.0 server. Procmail was installed with the inital setup. I've added the following line to my .forward file: "|IFS=' ' && exec /etc/smrsh/procmail -f- || exit 75 #test" I've also tried: "|IFS=' ' && exec /usr/bin/procmail -f- || exit 75 #test" The user I'm trying this out on is "test". There is a .procmailrc file in /home/test/ just like what's described in the SpamAssassin INSTALL file. I've added a sym link for procmail in /etc/smrsh to /usr/bin/procmail. My sendmail.mc file has the following line: FEATURE(`smrsh',`/usr/sbin/smrsh')dnl When I send mail to test, it bounces back with this error: ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- "|IFS=' ' && exec /etc/smrsh/procmail -f- || exit 75 #test" (reason: 550 Unsafe for mailing to programs) (expanded from: <test(a)fiero.net>) I've scoured the net for info on setting this up properly and have tried everything that's been suggested. I'm at a loss what else is causing this problem. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks! jim

star office fonts

by Bill Mills-Curran

When I upgraded to RedHat 7.2, Star Office seemed to lose most of its fonts. (I can't remember if I installed the new Star Office from the distro, but I think I did.) I've skimmed some web documents on adding fonts, and they seem fairly complex and I don't want to spend that much time on this. Does anyone know an easy way of getting decent fonts back? TIA, Bill
