Re: [Wlug] ipchains: Incompatible with this kernel

by Bryan Scaringe

ipchains is for kernels in the 2.2 series. iptables is for kernels in the 2.4 series. However, I believe there's an option in the kernel configuration so that you can continue to use ipchains commands with the 2.4 kernels. I'd suggest going with this option until you get a chance to update your firewall rules to iptables, (which I'd really suggest you do since iptables has some options that aren't available in ipchains).

I can't think of a read i've used that has not been able to do this. Well mutt is my example. It has no MTA capability, and right now I'm just using smtpclient to jam my mail to my provider's (work or cablemodem) SMTP server. That's on my desktop PCs at home and work. But for mobile use, I want something more badass. Chuck A. and Brad have indicated that sendmail can do all I want (if I can figure out how to make it do it all, which could be a fun project in itself!!) I know there are other options, though. qmail, exim, and probably others. Anyone know about these things, pros & cons & whatnot? -Chuck

Re: [Wlug] MTA for laptop?

by Charles R. Anderson

Sendmail? Just use sendmail's default config, with no smart relay host. By default, it will use DNS MX records to determine the SMTP server to send to. You might want to use a BIND cacheing nameserver, too, so you can look things up while you are disconnected from the net (put 0.0.0.0 in /etc/resolv.conf). This will work anywhere that doesn't filter outbound SMTP connections. You can probably script something that will check for a network connection and force sendmail's queue to send when you connect. If you must use a smart relay host for SMTP outbound in certain places, then you can probably hook something into the DHCP client (use dhclient with it's dhclient-script hooks) to modify sendmail's configuration based on where you are connected. You'd need to change the "DS" line in /etc/sendmail.cf and then restart sendmail. I don't think you can fiddle with the smart relay host dynamically though.

MTA for laptop?

by Chuck Homic

Hey, guys. Got a flame war question for y'all, I guess. What's a good (or the best?) MTA to have on my laptop. Here's what I'd like to be able to do: - Queue outgoing mail while offline, send while online (automatically, if possible... like, "Hey there's a network connection! I'll send all my queued mail!") - Automatically figure out the right way to send stuff based on the current network config. (If I'm at my office, it should use my local office SMTP server... at home, my cable provider.) - Bonus points if it attempts to deliver directly to hosts that will accept it, before falling back to my provider's SMTP. - Extra bonus points if it remembers what hosts won't accept mail directly from me and uses my provider's SMTP for those messages by default. I probably have other demands, but that's all I can think of for now. Maybe like if I'm on a dial up link, it would send small mail first? Stuff like that. Any ideas? -Chuck

Practical replacements for Project.

by Keller, Tim

I recently purchased the codeweavers office suite and I'm really happy with it. Stat office did everything I needed except for two apps, Outlook and Project. Outlook works perfectly under it (as you can see) but I haven't found a suitable replacement for project. Does anybody have any suitable work arounds or solutions to getting it to work with project. (I've attempted an install but get stone walled with errors and have logged a ticket) Thanks, Tim.
