Why Very Slow DNS on 8.2, But Not on WinXP?
by wgerrard 26 Sep '03

26 Sep '03

Anyone know why name resolution using my cable provider's nameservers is impossibly slow on a standard untweaked 8.2 install, but quite fast with WinXP on the same machine, same provider, same nameservers? I see the same slowness whether or not my firewall is running, and whether or not I'm running a local cacheing nameserver. Thanks.

Our aim is raid 5 if possible. But it's only fair to be able to check to se if it's working no? They are ide drives and have no lights. Steve.

[suse-security] Sieve does not sieve :(
by Stefan Waidele jun. 26 Sep '03

26 Sep '03

Hi all, I am working with postfix & cyrus-imap on SuSE8.1 How do I get sieve running? I have followed /usr/share/doc/packages/cyrus-imapd/doc/install-sieve.html including the example-script at the end. The problem is that test-mails do get through straight to my inbox instead of being rejected. I send those messages with the from-header info(a)waidele.biz which is the from-address that should be sieved out. Is there a step-by-step howto that combines the bits & pieces neccessary to get sieve running? I really miss procmail :) Stefan Here are some observations: ---- 'ps ax | grep tim' does not show timsieved running. ---- The telnet-test works: cyrus@p10085231:/home/sieve> telnet localhost sieve Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost. Escape character is '^]'. "IMPLEMENTATION" "Cyrus timsieved v1.1.0" "SASL" "PLAIN LOGIN DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5" "SIEVE" "fileinto reject envelope vacation imapflags notify subaddress relational regex" OK ---- This is the log if I send the testmail: Sep 23 11:38:15 p10085231 lmtpd[16565]: accepted connection Sep 23 11:38:15 p10085231 lmtpd[16565]: lmtp connection preauth'd as postman Sep 23 11:38:15 p10085231 master[16614]: about to exec /usr/lib/cyrus/bin/lmtpd Sep 23 11:38:15 p10085231 lmtpunix[16614]: executed Sep 23 11:38:15 p10085231 lmtpd[16565]: duplicate_check: <3F701484.30602(a)Waidele.biz> user.stw 0 Sep 23 11:38:15 p10085231 lmtpd[16565]: mystore: starting txn 2147483718 Sep 23 11:38:15 p10085231 lmtpd[16565]: mystore: committing txn 2147483718 Sep 23 11:38:15 p10085231 lmtpd[16565]: duplicate_mark: <3F701484.30602(a)Waidele.biz> user.stw 1064309895

Locating cause of signal
by Bernd 26 Sep '03

26 Sep '03

I'm having a problem with a signal, (SIGHUP), killing a running daemon, pppd! How do I find the cause of the signal, so I can stop it from happening??? I have tried debugging my connection, and nothing jumps out. Everything is clean around the timeframe of the signal. I have tried strace, yet within the time I need to trace, I would have over 65,000 lines of output.

How do I restart x
by Thinker 26 Sep '03

26 Sep '03

I just updated XFree86 in apt. I ran SuSEconfig. Now, I'm sure I need to restart x. How do I do this without rebooting? ( I think I asked this question before, but I can't find the answer in the archives.) Thanks, -=Thinker
