My apologies. I attempted to post this message 4-5 times, however it kept failing. One of the duplicates must of snuck through w/o me being aware of it. It was unintentional.

Configuring Spamassassin and amavisd-new
by Richard Mixon (qwest) 31 Mar '05

31 Mar '05

I have SLES 9 running our email using the default postfix LDAP setup and have amavis, clamd and Spamassassin configured (using the Yast Defaults mostly). Also we are using Cyrus as our POP/IMAP agent. All seems to be well - as the admin I receive email notifications when SPAM or VIRUS emails are detected. What I would like to do now is start getting Spam Assassin to take a more active role. I have read the README in /usr/share/doc/packages/perl-spamassassin. It directed me to look for a ~/.spamassassin directory - but none of our users have this directory setup by default. Should I just create it? I would like to either: 1) Have Spamassassin put a score in the email headers that the users email agent can use for filtering. or 2) Have Spamassassin not deliver the high scoring emails. Is this possible? Can it be configured through Yast? There appears to be ample Spamassassin instructions, but much of it talks about procmail and client side filtering on Linux. As we are using Cyrus IMAP/POP I do not believe we are using procmail. Most of our users are POP users running Windows and Outlook. thank you - Richard Note: In case one did not notice, as the volume is low on suse-sles-e I am also posting to suse-linux-e - I hope this is OK.

SuSE installer won't recognize my mouse
by Maura Edeweiss Monville 31 Mar '05

31 Mar '05

I'm installing SuSE 9.2 (I also tried 9.1) on a PC. he installation seemed to recognize the mouse the fisrt time I launched it (PCS) It's a 2-button and central wheel optic mouse with serial interface (I guess) in fact its plug is green and similar to the keyboard plug. It's not a USB interface. The first installation was interrupted by a power failure while reading the 4th CD (it had already gone throigh the 1st, 2nd,3rd CD). By mistake I touched the power cord with my feet under the desk ..I tried to lo launch SuSE from the hard disk. It started with the login dialog. Unluckily I only had configured the root user and no othe ones. I restarted the simulation from scratch reloading from the CD 1 but since then it never recognized the mouse any more. So I cannot make any choice from the installation menus without the mouse as the arrow keys do not jump over the listed menu choices ... What am I supposed to do ???? Thank you in advance for your help, Maura

numeric keypad "." instead of ","
by Jon Clausen 31 Mar '05

31 Mar '05

I probably *should* know this, but... Workstation; SUSE 9.2 KDE 3.3.0 country/region settings; country: denmark language: US english numbers: decimal symbol: "," thousands separator: "." jon@a13:~> set | grep -i LANG LANG=en_US.UTF-8 I would like to keep the above. Generally I use the numeric keypad to enter ip-addresses all the time. So I would like to have the map the "," key on the keypad to "." Should be simple enough, but I can't seem to dig up the info ATM... TIA /Jon -- YMMV

New mailer, and I dont see the original, but here goes. Thanks to Ken for the response. Linksys router 80211b. 9.0 on 2 pc's & the Toshiba Satelite 4030cdt. The only one with internet access probs is the laptop as described. It might be relevant that there HAS been a wireless Linksys card plugged in from time to time and recognized by that "--ctrl" ?? command as I tried to make some sense out of that. What command results or file info can I send info about , etc?? Thanks John

downgrade rpm
by Ryan McCain 31 Mar '05

31 Mar '05

I need to downgrade from openldap2-client-2.2.24-0.1 to openldap2-client-2.2.6-34.i586.rpm. I am doing this because another program I am trying to install requires libler.so.199 and libldap.so.199. These are the versions that come with the openldap2-client I am trying to downgrade to. When I run the command to downgrade I get the following results: omf-h0sck11:~ # rpm -U --oldpackage openldap2-client-2.2.6-34.i586.rpm error: Failed dependencies: liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) ldapcpplib-0.0.3-28.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) libgda-1.0.3-58.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) dirmngr-0.5.5-3.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) autofs-3.1.7-903.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) cyrus-sasl-saslauthd-2.1.19-5.2 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) pwdutils-2.6.90-6.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) opensc-0.8.1-3.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) postfix-2.1.5-3.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) pwlib-1.8.0-3.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) openh323-1.15.0-3.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) apache2-2.0.53-5.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) kdebase3-3.4.0-12 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) evolution-2.2.0.0.200503210410-0.snap.ximian.10.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) evolution-data-server-1.2.0.0.200503210410-0.snap.ximian.10.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) samba-client-3.0.13-0.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) libsmbclient-3.0.13-0.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) samba-3.0.13-0.1 liblber-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) openldap2-2.2.15-5 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) ldapcpplib-0.0.3-28.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) libgda-1.0.3-58.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) dirmngr-0.5.5-3.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) autofs-3.1.7-903.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) cyrus-sasl-saslauthd-2.1.19-5.2 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) gpg-1.2.5-3.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) pwdutils-2.6.90-6.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) opensc-0.8.1-3.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) postfix-2.1.5-3.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) pwlib-1.8.0-3.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) openh323-1.15.0-3.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) multisync-ldap-0.82-7.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) apache2-2.0.53-5.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) kdebase3-3.4.0-12 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) evolution-2.2.0.0.200503210410-0.snap.ximian.10.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) evolution-data-server-1.2.0.0.200503210410-0.snap.ximian.10.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) samba-client-3.0.13-0.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) libsmbclient-3.0.13-0.1 libldap-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) samba-3.0.13-0.1 libldap_r-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) pwlib-1.8.0-3.1 libldap_r-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) openh323-1.15.0-3.1 libldap_r-2.2.so.7 is needed by (installed) openldap2-2.2.15-5 omf-h0sck11:~ # ...

MPlayer for SuSE 9.1
by Chaitanya Krishna A 31 Mar '05

31 Mar '05

hi all, 1.Can anyone suggest a repository for MPlayer for SuSE 9.1? 2.How do I play .dat files? Most of the videos that I want to play are in this format. 3.Whenever I try to open an mpg video file with noatun, xine, or kaffeine, I just get a blank screen and only the audio plays. But if I have Xine running in the background and I also have Kaffeine running and play the .mpg file in Kaffeine, the clip plays. Can anyone suggest what's happening? Kindly let me know how I can play the .mpg movies properly. I meddled with all the menus in Xine and Kaffeine, but in vain. Thanks for your time and help. bye. chaitanya. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Small Business - Try our new resources site! http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/resources/
