[SLE] SuSE 6.4 Install
by monteirocrist＠gmx.net 05 Jun '00

Hi, I am trying to install SuSE 6.4. But it does not recognize Windows, and so it will install itself by taking the whole HD. Is there a way to solve this problem? Thanks. @) M.C. -- Sent through Global Message Exchange - http://www.gmx.net -- 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/

There are many tools in Python to access databases, but none is part of the standard Library. I'm not using any yet, myself, but will do. A good way to find "other" packages and tools, besides those described in the Library Reference, is the Vaults of Parnassus at http://www.vex.net/parnassus/. -- François Pinard http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/~pinard -- 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/

[SLE] Unable to upgrade to XFree86 3.3.6
by raghav＠easi.soft.net 05 Jun '00

05 Jun '00

Hi, I downloaded the XFree86 3.3.6 version from suse ftp site for 6.3. I tried installing or rather upgrading the existing XFree86 3.3.5 to 3.3.6 on my m/c. When i used 'rpm' command to query the XFree86.3.3.6.rpm package under /usr/lib, the rpm command came out with the error "Cannot query package". I tried to install, but once again it came out saying "error: cannot install package ". What can be the reason?? Is it because the XFree86 3.3.6 package has been built with an rpm version higher than the one which came with 6.3 (i,e 3.0.3 34). How can i know with what rpm version the XFree86 3.3.6 has been built with?? Should i take the latest rpm version and from where??

[SLE] shutdown
by landie＠concentric.net 05 Jun '00

USERS are able to shutdown, sys did not creat the file /etc/shutdown.allow , what does that file looks like, i tried implementing # In all cases, xdm uses the first entry which matches the terminal; # for IndirectQuery messages only entries with right hand sides can # match, for Direct and Broadcast Query messages, only entries without # right hand sides can match. # !* #no host can get a login window bzw. # The nicest way to run the chooser is to just ask it to broadcast # requests to the network - that way new hosts show up automatically. # Sometimes, however, the chooser can't figure out how to broadcast, # so this may not work in all environments. # !* CHOOSER BROADCAST #no indirect host can get a chooser BUT THAT DID NOT WORK also in rc.config section kdm_shutdown = "root" what else is wrong? and why did installation not create /etc/shutdown.allow. how can i have only root shutdown and reboot sllow?

Re: [SLE] Multi-port JetDirect

Hi, A while ago I did get HP DesignJet working with the jetdirect thing. I don't remember the details but I seem to remeber downloading some web based admin tool called "webjet" or "webmin" or someting like that from the HP site and then it all went well once I had told the plotter which machine (ip address) to keep it's spool files on (done from plotter). Sorry to be so vague but I think the key was that "webmin" tool.

Hi, ** can someone tell me if it is possible to use ** another machine as my default gateway to get my internet ** connection through, ** ** but the machine that i am routing too does not have a proxy server ** running on it, just a direct connection to the internet. Yes you can :-) Use the SDB on www.suse.de and check out masquerading. This will tell you how to do it.

Re: [SLE] ISDN interfaces always set default route -> patch to config ure that behaviour

Take for example the following situation (which >is, uncoincidentally, my own :-) ): This is partly caused by SuSE not providing sound support for fixed IP addresses. My local solution was to trash /sbin/init.d/i4l and write my own ISP connect scripts. I have multiple accounts to take care off (including dialback for work) and I use the 'ipparam' parameter for ipppd to supply the gateway for that interface (activated by /etc/ppp/ip-up). I have an .rc file for each config and my script figures out the rest. Works well for me. Koos Pol ---------------------------------------------------------------------- S.C.
