Backing Up/Moving Evolution
by Mims Research May 8, 2006

May 8, 2006

Hi Everyone, Is there a utility to back up Evolution? Or how can I move my Evolution folders listed under "On This Computer" from my hard drive to the server upstairs? I save a lot of my email. I need to find a way to move this stuff so I can get a new dual-boot system (windows/linux). I can't even figure out which directory all this Evolution stuff lives in. Are VFolders or IFolders the answer? I haven't tried either of those, but I believe we have those abilities here on our network. As always, thanks for all the help and support you give to this Linux newbie. All my best, Marie

Bandwidth sharing problem
by Gregory Avedissian May 2, 2006

May 2, 2006

I have a friend with a bandwidth sharing problem. There are two linux boxes (one Debian Sarge, one SuSE 9.3) attached to an old Linksys 10/100 wired router on cable internet (3Mbps confirmed download speed). When the Debian box is downloading a large file, it hogs all the bandwidth, and the SuSE box is very slow on the internet. Is there an easy way to limit download speed on one or both boxes to make them share nicely? I looked through the manual for the router, and I don't see a way to do it there. If there's not an easy way to do it, I'd still like to hear the difficult way to do it. Thanks, Greg

27" Monitor for sale
by James Gray May 2, 2006

May 2, 2006

A coworker of mine is selling a 27" monitor that he is no longer using. Contact me if you are interested and I'll get you his email. Here is his ad: Gateway Destination 27" Monitor - I'm selling a black Gateway Destination 27" monitor. Some of you may have seen the ads Dell has now for the XPS plasma screens, this is a similar concept that Gateway had years ago. This monitor retailed for $400. This monitor's maximum resolution is 800X600 at 65 hertz. It has a VGA cable input and RCA audio inputs for the mounted speakers on the sides. There are two modes, "PC" and "TV" that allow you to adjust the color settings seperately when you're watching television as opposed to using it with your PC. This monitor worked perfectly for me as my television. I used a computer as the center of my multimedia system with a TV tuner card and I was not disappointed with the monitor at all. The monitor takes a standard PC power cord, and I will include one with the monitor. I can also include a 30 foot VGA cable $25 more. If you are running this monitor from a computer with a DVD player, you will be astonished at the quality difference because this monitor operates at 800X600 resolution instead of a standard TV resolution of 484X280. That's about *twice* the clarity! The cheapest 27" TV at Best Buy is $197. This is twice the TV for less than twice the price! Price: $225 - negotiable

Mail servers, Comcast, and spam
by Andy Stewart April 27, 2006

April 27, 2006

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 HI gang, In my town, I've noticed that other town employees with whom I send email are unable to send return email to me. This started happening about a month ago. My ISP is Comcast. This description was sent to me by a town employee: o In an attempt to limit the amount of SPAM on the Comcast Internet system, Comcast does not allow external email servers to send mail to Comcast email accounts where the sending email server's MX records do not match. o Because the TOWN mail server is behind our firewall our incoming mail IP address is different from our sending mail IP address. In other words our MX records do not match consequently Comcast blocks our mail from being sent to Comcast email addresses. Basic questions: - - What is an MX record? - - Is it normal for the mail server to be behind the firewall? I thought perhaps it would be either exposed to the net or on the DMZ. I am wondering if there is some misconfiguration or perhaps a different configuration that could be used to alleviate this problem. I have no expertise running a mail server and thought somebody on this list might be able to help. Thanks!

Ubuntu vs Kubuntu

Linux Friendly Wireless Handhelds

linux courses
by Mike Leo April 19, 2006

April 19, 2006

I have taken RH and other week long certification programs and am certified in many things. however, the classes themselves are pretty weak, usually only covering RH and only what's in the RH book, superficially at best. I have read tons of materials on linux and continually do so all the time. But does anyone know of a good linux course out there anywhere, outside of the training mills like New Horizons, or even RH? College level course's seem to be the best choice so far, but I have not found one yet, nor do I want to spend the time if it is not a mature syllabus. I have been "on" linux for 3 years now, and I am beyond the basic's but not quite into kernel development yet, so a somewhere in between class is what I am hoping for. Thanks in advance, Mike

How fast is your CD burner with Linux ?
by Andy Stewart April 15, 2006

April 15, 2006

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 HI everybody, I asked this question at the most recent WLUG meeting. I've noticed that my CD burner (according to K3B) averages about 24X, even though it is advertised as a 48X CD burner. Is this to be expected, or do I have a cheap(er) drive that can't sustain the data rate? It is an IDE/ATAPI drive (NEC3550). It takes approx. 4 minutes for me to burn a 700MB CD (including some fiddling and diddling about calibrating power, fixating, etc). I use Memorex CD-R media (52X, 700MB, 80 min). I'm curious about your CD buring experiences, especially if they are faster than mine. I'd like to know what drive you have, the media you use, and most importantly, how did you determine your drive speed?

Tonight's meeting
by rich＠richardklein.org April 12, 2006

April 12, 2006

I've never been to a WLUG meeting before. It's okay for a member of the general public to just show up, right? On a different note, I was trying to set up the Cyrus mail server under Suse 9.2 and have been having a hell of a time with it. I set it aside about 2 weeks ago and haven't gotten back to it. If I bring the PC with me, would anyone be able and willing to help me configure Cyrus properly (or maybe the problem's with PAM - I don't know)? I suppose I could set it up at home for someone to access via VNC or something, too. Thanks, -- Rich

Anyone have a good suggestion for a place to recycle junk computers cheaply. I've got a pile of dead equipment starting to fill my garage and now that it's spring, it's time to get rid of it all. Most of it actually works, it's just all P133 or PIIs and they're not worth the effort to keep running any more. Plus I've got some work stuff to get rid of too, monitors and such. John
