With apologies to the individuals who responded to my message (see below), I'm afraid that I inadvertentdly deleted the answer before I impimented the solution. Would you please send it agin? I have just implimented a new installlation of v6.4/KDE2. When I attempt to use SWAT to configure Samba by http://localhost:901/ I get the error message: "cannot connect to host localhost.' What have I failed to install/configure? Thanks in advance -- Stephen P. Molnar, Ph.D. Life is a fuzzy set Foundation for Chemistry Multivariant and stochastic http://web.jadeinc.com/FoundationChem

netscape

I was less than impressed by the betas. I also think Mozilla doesn't have to show much even though their intentions may be good. I hope SuSE will continue to provide Netscape 4.76 in its future versions for the people who can't stand the new junk which runs slower than molasses. I always felt the 4.x series worked just fine and only crashed on Windows machines regularly for me. mk _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

envelope sender address is wrong

Message-Id: <200011110155.eAB1ttt06295(a)mail3.i-2000.com> Date: Fri, 10 Nov 2000 20:56:48 -0500 From: Doug McGarrett <dougmack(a)i-2000.com> Subject: envelope sender address is wrong The following relates to being unable to post to the SuSE list from Linux. During a thread: "frustrated" Michael Radziej determined for me (Thank you, Michael!) that my system is sending something called my "envelope sender address" with the wrong information in it. I think I have looked at the files he suggested to find this error and fix it, but I've had no luck finding the problem file. (I would forward his mail, but it came in at work, and I am now home.) Specifically he said that my "envelope sender address" says "dougmack(a)suse.de" I don't know why it would say that, but I let SuSE 7.0 set up the stuff thru YAST2 and that must be where it came from. I have looked in the files he suggested, and can't find where this is done. I never even heard of an "envelope sender address" and I don't know what it is. Does anyone know where that file is located, that might have this misinformation in it, so that I might edit or delete it? (If I must have an envelope sender address, what should it really say?) System: Pentium 166, _ALL_ scsi, SuSE Linux 7.0, using Linksys Router as firewall--works extremely well, btw--on ADSL. Dual booting Win 98. Anything else you need to know, tell me. Thanx to all in advance--doug

After rebooting, modprobe au8830 does not give any reply. xmms shows that it is playing and does not give any error, but there is no sound from the speakers. There are no error messages in /var/boot/messages except for some missing symbols for ne2000 driver (this always happens with the SuSE apmd kernel). any idea?? I had this working in 6.4 but I did a fresh install of 7.0 and it doesn't work! btw kde2 rocks! Regards, Adi Gadwale.

troubles...

One never leads a smooth life. I have a problem with my SuSE64 system. It has 256megs of Ram and plus a 120megs of swap and yet it runs out of memory when I do the simplest install of a RPM file. It just chugs along until it finally stops and locks everything up. I run 'free' from another console when I do this and I see the use of memory climbs and climbs until the swap file is full and then after a bit everything just locks up. Is there a way to find out what is causing this. At least a place to start would be nice. I even tried a new ' rpm.rpm' last night and couldn't compile it. And that is not a big file to compile. So, I am left in limbo. I must say though, that the system runs fine apart from this; in that I can read my mail, use the browsers, download files etc.. all without any difficulties. But I cannot do anything with the compiling.. --- Ted Gervais 1-902-679-2253 Coldbrook, Nova Scotia Canada. *********************************************** Be alert, the world needs more lerts ***********************************************
