Cyrus-IMAP on SuSE-7.3-PPC
by abarthel 07 Jun '02

07 Jun '02

Hello, I had already a mail exchange on the subject a few weeks ago with Peter. My Cyrus-IMAP server on an Intel SuSE-7.3 just crashed (RAM problem). I managed to install a backup server on a G3 but I have problem using it because the SuSE-PPC rpm packages for Cyrus-IMAP and Cyrus-SASL are apparently uncomplete. Peter Poeml send me the url ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/poeml/7.3/db-3.1.17-100.rpm and the package solved a first problem (cyradm did not work at first) but I still have a problem of authentication (I can only make a "plain" authentication, sasl seems inoperant). Peter send me some way to solve that but with my other problem I lost the message. Could he or someone else tell me where I could find a complete package for Cyrus-IMAP and Cyrus-SASL for SuSE-7.3-PPC? -- Alain Barthélemy

upgrading mod_php using yast2?
by Tom Arnold 07 Jun '02

07 Jun '02

I'm running Apache 1.3.20 and PHP/4.0.6 as part of SuSE PPC 7.3 and I want to upgrade to a newer version of PHP to avoid some security holes. I'm trying to do all my upgrades via yast2 so that I don't have to mess around with manual builds and installs (which I am all too likely to mess up). So I run yast2 and it says there's an update to mod_php and I check it to be installed and continue. Then I restart my web server with apachectl graceful and check to see what I'm running and it is still 4.0.6. (this is what the phpinfo() command returns when run on that web server) I don't understand how to upgrade PHP using yast2, or any other way for that matter. Can I do it with yast2? ===== Tom Arnold Summit Media Partners Visit our web site at http://www.summitmediapartners.com __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Russische Textdatei konvertieren
by Bernd Kulawik 05 Jun '02

05 Jun '02

Hallo alle miteinander, ich habe leider erfolglos versucht, einen russischen Text (als .doc-File erhalten) zu öffnen. Auch das Anlegen eines neuen Users, für den ich als Land- und Sprachauswahl im KDE "Russisch" eingestellt habe, führte nicht zum Erfolg - was habe ich falsch gemacht? Ich muss diesen Text irgendwie in ein grafisches Format umwandeln, um ihn dann in ein Dokument einfügen zu können. Hat jemand eine Idee? Viele Dank! Bernd

Hi people hav anyone experienced to install KDE 3 on Linux SuSE PPC 7.3? I downloaded KDE from suse site, but after installation with yast the login is always with KDE 2. Infact KDE not update the old version but it addict itself on /opt/kde3. Plus, if I start kde 3 from failsafe it run in a very slow mode, such KDE 2. Anyone has some advice? Thanks in advance.
