SMB mounting at startup
by Morsal R 15 Jan '01

15 Jan '01

Hi, I was wondering how I can setup my SMB mounts to be mounted at startup. I have added the mounts to the fstab but since fstab is ran before SMB is started, they cant be mounted. It works fine if I do a simple "mount -a" after startup, so there is nothing wrong with what I have written in fstab, just that I'd like it to be mounted automatically. Thanks in advance, Morsal

Does anyone know where I can get a selection of SuSE logo images, so that I can put one on my webpage? Thanks, Geordon -- "There is a difference between knowing a path and walking a path." ~~ Lawrence Fishburne, as Morpheus

SuSE Hardware recomendations
by joe 15 Jan '01

15 Jan '01

I finally decided to upgrade, I am thinking about getting an Athalon 750 MHZ and a Matrox G400 card. ( I'll also need a new style case) What brand motherboard and memory do you recomend? I can't afford the very best but want to upgrade to a good solid system that runs linux well. If anyone has recently gone throguuh this, would you please share your experiences? It has been a while since i did an upgrade and many things have changed. If you know of a good supplier - please let me know as well. I don't want to buy from any company that charges me for Microsoft products I don't use or want.

802.11 and SuSE
by Dee McKinney 15 Jan '01

15 Jan '01

Being in the business I am, I'm Honolulu at PTC 2001 and using my corporate HP Omnibook 4150 w/MS 2000 Pro on it. The Lucent Silver PCMCIA card for the wireless connectivity is sweet here, so I bought one VS. renting, anticipating being at NANOG next month in Atlanta and using it there also. Now that I have VMware Express working great on my home workstation, I am considering takingthe leap, (a mortal corporate sin I may add :), and putting Linux on my laptop. My question is how does this card perform under SuSE 7.0 ? Anyone know or have experience ? Thanks /Dee

Attention mailing list manager: Suggestion for mailing list
by wilson＠claborn.net 15 Jan '01

15 Jan '01

On most lists when you read a posted message then hit "reply" the To: field is automatically filled in with the "list-post" address, i.e. it will be sent to the list. However whatever mailing list manager SuSE uses here fills in the reply-to address of the person who's post you're reading (as I'm sure you're all well aware of). I find this really annoying, and several times have accidently sent things to a person instead of to the list. Is there anyway y'all @ SuSE would please consider fixing that? I consider it a bug, not a feature :-) Thanks, Jonathan Wilson System Administrator Cedar Creek Software http://www.cedarcreeksoftware.com Central Texas IT http://www.centraltexasit.com

What is limits.h and why is it bothering me...
by ZephyrQ 15 Jan '01

15 Jan '01

For the past several weeks, I have tried to compile programs but I keep getting variations of the following: /usr/include/bits/local_lim.h:27: linux/limits.h: No such file or directory The 'limits.h' seems to be the common element. A search of my system shows me 7 different locations (many of them from /lost+found). Do I just copy from one of those into...where? I do not have a linux/limits directory at root. Installing by RPM seems to work fine, but a lot of programs are not available that way...(the latest being Procmeter). All help is appreciated--thanx. System info: SuSE 6.4, AMD k6-2...yada yada yada.
