[SuSE Linux] email problems with my isp - how can I log email out
by mperry＠basin.com 23 Jan '99

23 Jan '99

My isp seems to have some problems with email coming from me so I switched back to using my linux system to send my mail. I use tkrat for email so now have all email going from me and not my isp's smtp host. How can I, for the short term, make sendmail create a log of outgoing messages perhaps in a text file? I use the command sendmail -q in my ip-up to send queued email when I bring my ppp session up. -- Michael E.

Re: [SuSE Linux] Re: List Directory Tree/RH vs SuSE RPMS
by lyates＠cris.com 23 Jan '99

THANKS for all the replies to my question: How to traverse directory tree sans filenames? There were a variety of answers, but the best answer was to use: find / -type d The main reason I want to do this is to compare the difference between directory layouts between SuSE and Redhat distributions. I wanna know why (precisely) some Redhat RPM's won't properly install in SuSE (and vice versa). Any insights into this question will be greatly appreciated!

[SuSE Linux] [Suse Linux] PCMCIA and linux 2.2 kernels
by linux1＠mail.crc.com 22 Jan '99

22 Jan '99

I don't know about everyone else, but I have noticed that since 2.2-pre6, pcmcia 3.07 doesn't compile. I have had to copy the linux/drivers/net/8390.c file from the 2.2-pre5 kerenel over to the approriate location to get it to compile. Not sure who to report to (can't believe I am the only one). With the 2.2 final almost there (running pre9 now), think it will be rude awakening for some. Anyway, I am running SuSE 6.0 beta, with compiled sources for pcmcia 3.07 and linux-2.2-pre9. - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo(a)suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
