Matt, I'm not sure, but this seems to be what you're looking for; 'gdbm-devel' package. Details here : http://www.suse.de/uk/private/products/suse_linux/i386/packages_professional /gdbm-devel.html download here? ftp://ftp.mirror.ac.uk/sites/ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/8.1/suse/i586/gdbm-d evel-1.8.0-688.i586.rpm HTH James -----Original Message----- From: Matt Williams [mailto:lists@yewlands.com] Sent: 28 October 2002 12:56 To: suse-linux-uk-schools(a)suse.com Subject: [suse-linux-uk-schools] ndbm.h Hi all Anyone know what package installs this file? I'm trying to compile apache with mod_rewrite but it keeps bailing looking for this file. I did a clean, minimal install of suse 8.0 with development tools, but it's not installed.

WINE is all we need...

Hi Anyone interested in collaborating on WINE how-tos for UK schools software. It's the only argument left that is stopping Manchester eduation migrating to Linux. It could well involve contributions into the WINE project itself, if there are any interested coders out there... Cheers Chris Puttick IT Manager Central Manchester CLC

DNS and all that stuff
by Dave Williams 23 Oct '02

23 Oct '02

Hi I've just rebuilt our main FS using Suse 8.1 following a complete hard drive failure (and no we didn't have a full backup). I've never been sure about the settings to use for host name, domain name, name servers and domain search list. Everything has always worked but we sometimes get poor performance which may be related to DNS queries. Many years back we called our domain derbymoor (school name) and the server derby. However, since we are now connected to broadband and our local machines can find out about the big wide world I wondered if we should use our official domain of derbymoor.derby.sch.uk. Should we be running a name server ie nscd or named? Any advice? Dave Williams

Hi I have changed our Intranet Web Server from RedHat to SUSE 6.4 Using DreamWeaver to update the site I had no problem with the RedHat system but now with SUSE I have to chmod +or new files after I have uploaded them for them to be visible. Can someone point me in the right direction. I'm probably being really thick but cannot get it working as on the redhat system. The upfgrading is done via LAN connection and nothing has changed at the Laptop/Dreamweaver end.

RE: [suse-linux-uk-schools] OO and SO

Or ones for MSOffice we can get converted... Schools here are moving wholesale, so we should be generating skiploads of the stuff shortly, but anything to start it off is good. Maybe someone could look at stuff from other countries (Australia, North America etc.) and convert the english then define the materials as per QCA standards - not being a teacher it's not something I'm really qualified to do. Any takers? -----Original Message----- From: Paul Taylor To: SuSE for Schools Sent: 10/17/02 10:52 PM Subject: [suse-linux-uk-schools] OO and SO Hi all: Does anyone have any material (worksheets, S)OW) they have tested and approved for use with SO or OOo that would be suitable for GCSE/AS/AVCE they would be willing to share? I am going to start using it in my new job in January but could do with some material to buy me some development time.
