.procmailrc file is not read
by Alain Barthélemy 29 Sep '02

29 Sep '02

Hello, Here somme add-ons: If I check /var/log/messages or /var/log/warn I have the messages: Sep 28 23:16:21 portable procmail[1634]:suspiciousrcfile"/home/user/.procmailrc" man procmail: Suspicious rcfile "x" The owner of the rcfile was not the recipient or root, the file was world writable, or the directory that contained it was world writable, or this was the default rcfile ($HOME/.procmailrc) and ei ther it was group writable or the directory that contained it was group writable (the rcfile was not used). But the owner of files in /home/Mail/my_name is well the my_name with permissions rw------- and directory /home/user//Mail is drwx------ and in .fetchmailrc I have: poll mail.gminformatique.com with proto POP3 user cassandre there with password xxxxxx is my_name here <====== Other point: I have "no space left to finish writing /home/alain/Mail/reception_folder If I see man procmail: No space left to finish writing "x" The filesystem containing "x" does not have enough free space to per mit delivery of the message to the file. But I have 217Mb free space in /home. Thus it is not really a problem of free space (free inode?). Thank you for any help ======================================= I have some problem with Procmail (I use Postfix/Fetchmail/Procmail/Mutt). Normally my /home/user/.procmailrc file is configured to distribute e-mails to different directories according to sender. Yesterday it stopped distributing mails in different directories and all mails were sent to default mailbox /var/mail/user Procmail keeps not distributing the files in the different directories like said in .procmailrc and the messages keeps being distributed in system default folder /var/mail/user (not in /home/user/Mail although MAILDIR=/home/alain/Mail in .procmailrc config file). The .procmailrc file has worked without problems till the problems occurred. If I check /var/log/messages or /var/log/warn I have the messages: Sep 28 23:16:21 portable procmail[1634]:suspiciousrcfile"/home/user/.procmailrc" See above Can somebody tell me what is "suspicious" in my .procmailrc file? It looks thus like the .procmailrc is not read correctly. With fetchmail I have a /home/user/.forward file with instruction: |/usr/bin/procmail >From frits(a)wuthrich.cc Fri Sep 27 22:37:03 2002 Subject: Re: [SLE] Pre-ordering 8.1 Folder: /home/user/Mail/suse-e_fetchmail ==> here everything is OK it is sent to the right folder.

Automount Drive at Startup - How?
by L. Mark Stone 29 Sep '02

29 Sep '02

My PC boots Windows 2000 and SuSE Linux 8.0. To share data files between the two operating systems, I use a separate FAT32 partition (/dev/hdf6). When I boot Linux, I'd like this partition to be mounted automagically, so that all users on my home network (all of two machines) can access files on this partition. I tried changing the parms in fstab to "auto, user" and "auto, users", and while this mounted the drive on boot, it made all the files read-only. Any ideas on how I can do this? Here's fstab, if it helps: /dev/hde3 / reiserfs defaults 1 2 /dev/hde1 /boot ext2 defaults 1 2 devpts /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0 /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0 /dev/dvd /media/dvd auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0 /dev/fd0 /media/floppy auto noauto,user,sync 0 0 usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs noauto 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/sda1 /windows/C ntfs ro,noauto,user,umask=022 0 0 /dev/sda5 /windows/D ntfs ro,noauto,user,umask=022 0 0 /dev/hdf6 /windows/E vfat noauto,user 0 0 /dev/hde2 swap swap pri=42 0 0 /dev/hdf5 swap swap pri=42 0 0 Thanks! -- _________________________________________________________ Another Message From...

anyone know how to stop Kinternet running automatically - I can't find it anywhere, and as far as I can see, KPPP is much better (and always works!) thanks Stuart -- To err is human, to forgive is Not Company Policy. -- con algo hay que empezar Registered Linux User #284465

Problems with serial port/suse 8
by Nick Selby 29 Sep '02

29 Sep '02

Hi, I have tried plugging my palm into the port (the palm works, as they always say, under a windows machine (a different one, not on this box)) and it is not recognized. I went into hwinfo and don't see the port listed. Perhaps that was a stupid place to look but it's where I looked... Can anyone give me some ideas about how to tell (a) if the port is working and (b) to troubleshoot the connection process? Thanks in advance, Nick

by wolfi 29 Sep '02

Hi fellows, Would this one be working well with Linux, just as it is said with all the other Epsons except the 1250??? I am looking for a scanner which can handle slides. Another option would be the Epson Perfection 1260 Photo, this one would even be cheaper. The linux USB scanner site is out of date:-( http://www.buzzard.org.uk/jonathan/scanners-usb.html Cheers ...
