Hi, I've enabled xinetd, and toggled telnet to active in yast. I've then tried to telnet into my machine from another one on the same network but it is saying could not open connection to the host. Is there something else I need to enable? I can ping between the machines Phil

Trouble in paradise: reiserfs problem--how to solve it?
by Basil Chupin 25 Oct '06

25 Oct '06

For an unknown reason I had a small glitch a short while ago with computer 'hiccupping' when I went to close an application and I lost the system/quickstart tray on the (KDE) desktop; had to reboot. The reboot was not totally successful because there was an error message showing that one of the partitions could not be accessed and that I had to fix it manually. The problem partition was not the / partition but /dev/hdc11 (explained below). By commenting out hdc11 in fstab I was able to boot into 10.1 normally (but no hdc11--sob :-( .) I have 2 HDs, hda and hdc. hda has the Suse OS on it and on hdc I have one partition -- hdc11 -- which is also formatted in reiserfs and which I use to hold some backups of directories and files. It is this hdc11 partition (~3.5GB) which is in trouble. I ran reiserfsck against hdc11 and there is corruption- I get the error message, "Bad root block 0 (--rebuild-tree did not complete)" when I ran reiserfsck --check against it. How do I get reiserfsck to fix this problem? (the only reiserfsck option I haven't tried yet is --rebuild-tree). Or do I now only have the dd_rescue option left (which I have never used) :-( ? Advice most welcome. Thanks. Cheers. -- This morning my administration released the budget numbers for fiscal 2006.

KSynaptics with Gnome
by Simon Roberts 25 Oct '06

25 Oct '06

Well, I thought my touchpad troubles were all solved, and they're certainly much reduced. I have KSynaptics controlling my touchpad now and can turn off the horrid, unpredictable, tapping and scrolling stuff that was causing so many unwanted behaviors. But, I have to start KSynaptics and configure the touchpad every time I log in. That's not so wonderful, obviously. Given that I'm running KSynaptics under Gnome, under SuSE 10.1, how can I get my preferred configuration to be "persistent" or at least have it automatically restored at login?

Another sasl & postfix
by Koenraad Lelong 25 Oct '06

25 Oct '06

Hi, I'm trying to setup sasl with my postfix-server, running Suse10.1. I have a virtual domain stored in MySql. The usernames are the e-mail addresses of the users : user(a)ace-electronics.be In /usr/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf I have : pwcheck_method: saslauthd -a pam -n mech_list: plain login In /etc/pam.d/smtp I have : auth required pam_mysql.so user=postfixuser passwd=secret db=postfixdb table=usertable usercolumn=username passwordcolumn=password crypt=1 If I try testsaslauthd -s smtp -u 'k.lelong(a)ace-electronics.be' -p 'password' it fails. If I put verbosity on in /etc/pam.d/smtp, I see that pam_mysql authenticates, but pam itself seems to fail. In messages I get : Oct 24 17:13:16 lace1 saslauthd[4145]: pam_mysql - SELECT password FROM mailbox WHERE username = 'k.lelong(a)ace-electronics.be' Oct 24 17:13:16 lace1 saslauthd[4145]: pam_mysql - pam_mysql_sql_log() called.

If I try telnet smtp 25 auth plain <mimencoded username and password> it fails but in the mysql-log I see only k.lelong as the username, the domain name disappeared. In main.cf I have : smtpd_sasl_local_domain = postconf -n has no smtpd_sasl_local_domain. How can I recover the domainname ? Any help much appreciated. -- Met vriendelijke groeten, Koenraad Lelong R&D Manager ACE electronics n.v.
