Hi, I can't use YOU, it fails to load the list of ftp server. The error message is: "socket error: 111". This happens when my computer uses private IP from a broadband router, and the router is connected to a cable modem. -- -- Verdi March --

After the machine was stable again, I down loaded the new security rpm (not the patch) and installed it (again in single user mode) Reason: so many things are dynamically linked to glibc--- __________________________________________________________________ McAfee VirusScan Online from the Netscape Network.

Apache and PHP
by Michael Satterwhite 07 Jun '03

07 Jun '03

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I have Apache 1.3 and PHP4 installed directly from the SuSE 8.2 DVD. Apache is running fine, so is PHP. I've browsed httpd.conf to find the setting to tie them together, but I don't see it. It's possible (probable?) that I need to do something else to the Apache configuration as it came directly from the SuSE release. What do I need to do to enable PHP on my Apache? - ---tia - -Michael -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2-rc1-SuSE (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+4hoFjeziQOokQnARAgFKAJ9nasJcmdGDnawgXIYDyLJw5l8PmgCdHwQB owCBc6rvba1KyLu9kUJ2zJo= =RPHo -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Problems with K3b...need help
by Tom Nielsen 07 Jun '03

07 Jun '03

First, let me say, don't recommend other burning programs. Xcd-roast, cdtoast and another one cause my entire machine to lock up...resulting in me pushing the 'bailout' button. (that will be saved for another email...) Last night I tested a cd out by writting one wav file to it. No problem. Tonight I tried, 4 times, burning about 14 songs, way below my max in minutes or megs. Each time using a new CD. I kept getting the same response: Turning BURN-Proof on Executing power calibration... ?: Input/output error. : scsi sendcmd: cmd timeout after 180.375 (180) s CDB: 54 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 cmd finished after 180.375s timeout 180s ERROR: Power calibration failed. ERROR: Use option --force to ignore this error. ERROR: Writing failed. Does anyone know what this means? K3b worked on my 8.0 version perfectly. Not sure what's happened. Anyway, if anyone can provide some insight, I would appreciate it. My wife wants to make a CD for her friend that's moving away and she's going to kill me if I can't do it.
