OK; does anyone have a quick and easy (painless) way to set up Amanda. If so, I am interested in some help. I understand that Amanda is a great program, and those that use it, like. So I am trying to find someone that is willing to help. -- Kirk Moore EPM - Release Management 425-965-6856 (desk) 425-797-9092 (pager) Black holes are created when God divides by zero! -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe(a)suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help(a)suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

Dennis It's definitely out-of-the-box, I don't understand compiling yet. The two printers I've tried are Epson Stylus 740 and IBM PPSII dot matrix. lsmod, among other things says: parport_pc 4948 0 (unused) parport 6756 0 (autoclean) [parport_pc lp} lp 5008 0 (autoclean) (unused) --- Dennis Soper <dsoper(a)clipper.net> wrote: > On 12 Mar 00, at 11:55, David wrote: > > > Will anyone condescent to help me figure out > why > > I can't print anything from anywhere with my > SuSe > > 6.1 installation? > > What printers are you using?

[SLE] susefax sending problems
by gdoris＠home.com 12 Mar '00

12 Mar '00

I'm sure this is a simple fix but I've never let simplicity stand in the way of frustration before!!! I have Hylafax runnng and working on a server. On this server I am able to send and receive faxes using susefax. I can use susefax access the receive files and view them from a separate client machine. I can even do a modem poll from the client machine. Howver, I can't send a fax from the client. It goes through all the processing and then disappears. On the server I have edited the hosts.hfaxd file to allow access from the client. What am I missing??? ---------------------------------- E-Mail: Gerry Doris <gdoris(a)home.com> Date: 12-Mar-2000 Time: 15:01:29 This message was sent by XFMail ---------------------------------- -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe(a)suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help(a)suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

I want to learn Java, so today I downloaded Sun's new jkd 1.2.2. Nothing seems to work. Even the Hello,World example in their doc fails to run. Has anyone else had any better luck?

Hi everyone. Have gimp 1.1.14 and libgimp from the SuSE 6.3 update and SANE 1.0.1 from the SuSE 6.2 update. Am missing libgimp-1.1.so.7 to run xscanimage. Anyone seen a similar problem?

[SLE] Printer problem
by csharp2a＠earthlink.net 12 Mar '00

12 Mar '00

Hello, I am sure that everyone using suse 6.3 has had printer problems. I have removed lprold and replaced it with lprold from 6.2. In order to do this, I also had to remove lprng due to conflicts. I am still not able to print. I have setup the remote printer and apsfilter as shown in the manual. The print jobs do make it to the queue but never to the printer. I have verified that the system can communicate with the remote printer. The printer also runs fine in windows.

Re: [SLE] Firewall 2.0 restart in ip-up?
by stephennyny＠yahoo.com 12 Mar '00

Steve - I found the install and configuration of firewall 2.0 very easy - Marc wrote great ducumentation. But I'm using it on a home network where I'm denying all incoming traffic, and I've disabled all services on the standard ports. I'm providing no external services from my machine or network, so it's pretty simple. I spent some time with v 1.4 and found it more difficult than v 2.0 - Steve --- "Steven T.
