[SLE] XNLS / Netscape problem
by msspal＠gbso.net 07 May '00

07 May '00

hey, i gave up on the XFree version 4.0 and tried to re-install the original version that came with SuSE 6.3..........X seems to be working fine, however Netscape fails with "locale 'C' not supported. Perhaps the $XNLSPATH enviroment variable is not set correctly?" not sure what that is/means.....has something to do with old Motif apps like netscape......must be a broken symlink somewhere? maybe someone has had the same problem and learned how to fix it?

First, thanks to Jerry and Chris. Nice to get a response. Second, make no assumptions about my knowledge base. This is new turf, but I will try to understand the info given to me. Here are the results of route and ipchains -L. Looks to my untrained eye that I have no firewall up to speak of (which is ok for now) and the route table means nada to me. I do not have routing on, AFAIK. Should I? I have always just assigned ip's to my machine and the win98 machine and started samba to have both machines networked and the ability to print on the win98 printer. Apparently I've opened a can 'o worms with dod and mason? Hope this means something to you all. Ifconfig shows the right IP for my machine, eth0 is up, lo is up, ppp0 is something new, but it shows the IP's for my ISP, which it should(?) because dod is dynamic. (always used Kppp before) Lord help me, my head hurts. What's weird, is that sometimes my machine (linuxbox) shows up in Net Neighborhood on the win98 machine, but still can't ping.

Hello, Reinstall of 6.4......did what I usually do, NIC is recognized and samba is running with the usual, but I can't ping my other machine (win98) and it can't ping me. I have recently started using wvdial-od and have begun messing about with firewalling. (Use Mason, and I don't think anything is blocked at this point) Where should I look for what might be stopping ping? All the normal entries have been put in their appropriate files. This is a new one for me. I could always count on ping. I do not have any routing going, nor ipmasq, AFIK. Help?

[SLE] IntelliMouse error in Suse 6.4
by ntlist＠freemail.hu 07 May '00

07 May '00

I've difficulties with my mouse (IntelliMouse, Serial) under Suse 6.4. It often stops to work after I switch to character mode and back. When kdm starts at boot, regularly, it doesn't work, but after a few switches I usually manage to use it. GPM has disabled, SAX has configured with correct parameters (I hope). The mouse in good condition, and works fine under other operating systems. I try a normal serial mouse, and I haven't got similar strange behaviour. I really appreciate your help.

[SLE] Removing files from printer queue on a remote machine
by neonatus＠udba.org 07 May '00

07 May '00

Hi! I have asked this before, but noone answered. I would really like to get this working so I am asking again. I have a printer server and a client which added the remote printer via YaST. I have added the ip of the client to the priinter servers /etc/hosts.lpd. I can print to the printer server from the client, bu I cannot delete files from printer queue - if I am owner of the job or not (root). I can remove them just fine If I am logged on on the printer server and I remove them from there. Can anyone help me with this subject? I really don't know what else to do.

[SLE] recommendation for mail proxy
by sworley＠houston.rr.com 07 May '00

07 May '00

Hi, Just got 6.4 installed on workstation and "firewall". Works great! What would you recommend for e-mail proxy on the firewall. I'm not using masquarading because I cannot figure out routing. If my life depended on setting up a routing table I'd be dead. Since I have successfully setup exim once, I thought I would be able to figure out postfix but no. I've read the HOW-TO's, man pages, etc. Is there an example postfix, sendmail, or some mail proxy example for the following setup? 1. FIrewall uses DHCP to get IP 2. 2nd NIC for local network is static, class C 3. local network has a single workstation with a single user The only way I have ever got the above setup to work in the past was to use proxy-2.0 which doesn't provide much protection against DoS attacks.
