Suse 8.0 or Greater PostFix or SendMail which is Better
by R. S. Patil 31 Mar '03

31 Mar '03

Dear Friends, I have a LAN with 10+ W9x Nodes and a Linux Server with suse 8.0 I have a POP mail Account with my ISP. I would Like to establish a Internal Mailing system which will enable my 10+ different users to mail each other as well they should be able to send mail outside. Similarly they should be able to collect mail from the pop mail account of mine which are aimed to a specific user. the outsider will address mail to internal user as follows "Internal User" < myac@mydomain> and the internal user will write reply to as "Internal User" < myac@mydomain> which MTA is suitable for this task Postfix or SendMail ? Our experience with Linux is just 6 months to 1 yr. Thanks Best Regards R. S. Patil

I'm using 7.3, what do you mean by using /etc/rc.config directory structure. M.

Which SuSE version are you talking about if less then 8.0 then /etc/sysconfig does not not exist and should use the /etc/rc.config directory structure -- Togan Muftuoglu Unofficial SuSE FAQ Maintainer http://dinamizm.ath.cx -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help(a)suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq(a)suse.com

/etc/sysconfig

Hi all, I read through the document from Togan Muftuoglu and found that the configuration file for SuSEfirewall2 is on /etc/sysconfig, but after I install the SuSEfirewall2 and reboot the machine there is no file on there. Am I should create the file manually? a friend of me using iptables and he create iptables on sysconfig using "iptables-save > /etc/sysconfig/iptables", or actually we don't need the file only setting up the parameter on /etc/rc.config.d/firewall2.rc.config? Can anybody give the answer. TIA M. Edwin

Record grep
by Jay Vollmer 31 Mar '03

31 Mar '03

Hi everybody! Does anyone know of an existing command-line utility that will look through a simple database file (with records separated by some ascii character, or series of characters) for a pattern, then print the entire record to the screen when a record containing a match is found? I've written a little utility in C which does this, and I've been thinking about adding some additional features before offering it to the community. I won't bother if I'm reinventing the wheel however, so if anyone knows if such a thing exists already, please let me know. -- JAY VOLLMER JVOLLMER(a)VISI.COM TEXT REFS DOUBLEPLUSUNGOOD SELFTHINK VERGING CRIMETHINK IGNORE FULLWISE

Just download the .iso images from http://www.linuxiso.org They have all the major distributions on there as well as FreeBSD. ~~Nick --- On Sat 03/29, Ben Rosenberg < ben(a)whack.org > wrote: From: Ben Rosenberg [mailto: ben(a)whack.org] To: suse-linux-e(a)suse.com Date: Sat, 29 Mar 2003 18:33:30 -0800 Subject: Re: [SLE] Downloaded SuSe 8.1 - Now what? * Turd Ferguson (turdferguson(a)infowest.com) [030329 18:22]: ->Subba, -> SuSE FTP mirrors are generally used when installing over the Internet ->from a bootable disk.

Any Good C/C++ online references?
by Steven T. Hatton 31 Mar '03

31 Mar '03

I'm not even sure what I have on my hard drive. It seems I've broken the help indexer, so perhaps what I'm seeking is right here, and I just can't get at it. I'm looking for a good online reference for C/C++. I haven't written in these languages for years, and I was never fluent. Does anybody know of a good online reference for these? Are any included with SuSE 8.1? I can't get the C/C++ documentation working for KDevelop 2.1.5 either, so if your answere is there, then please let me know how to get it set up. STH

Don't kill yourself with C when you don't need to use it. For the purpose you listed below, a one line perl script could be written. Plus the perl regular expression engine is quite efficient and excellent. ~~Nick --- On Sun 03/30, Jay Vollmer < jvollmer(a)visi.com > wrote: From: Jay Vollmer [mailto: jvollmer(a)visi.com] To: suse-linux-e(a)suse.com Date: Sun, 30 Mar 2003 19:25:14 -0600 (CST) Subject: [SLE] Record grep Hi everybody!
