[opensuse] How to install dhcpd in SuSe 10
by Josef Springer 04 Jun '08

04 Jun '08

I have installed SuSe 10, but do not have any network connectivity. The computer is linked to a network with a DHCP-Server. In the Yast-controllcenter the networkcard has set the option "Automatic adressconfiguration (with DHCP)". dhcpd does not exist. I may have skipped some installation steps, but dont know. I need the ability to select something like "Use any DHCP-Server" How can i install dhcpd. In the Yast-controllcenter i have the option "DHCP-Server" only and if i select this option, YAST wants to install the DHCP-Server package. Thanks for help !

[opensuse] compatible graphic tablets
by Allen 04 Jun '08

04 Jun '08

Hi, I am planning on getting a graphic tablet for drawing and such, and after looking around on the net, seem to be finding only conflicting information on device compatibility with opensuse 10.3. I am after a 6"x9" or there abouts. The Wacom tablets seem well supported, but different people seem to report the new Wacom Bamboo series don't work with the current kernel. Other devices seem to be mostly UC-Logic chips, and while there is plenty of info for ubuntu (again, mostly contradictory regarding operation status) there is little about opensuse. The WizardPen driver seems to work for some, but again newer kernels seem to present problems. If you have a tablet working under 10.3, could you please let me know the brand and model, what driver it uses, and any difficulties in setup. Also any particular comments on usability with opensuse (buttons, pressure sensitivity etc) would also be helpful.

[opensuse] Postfix & authenticated relay
by Koenraad Lelong 04 Jun '08

04 Jun '08

Hi, I'm running Suse 10.3. I'm trying to set up Postfix to allow users to send mail from the Internet through my mailserver if they are authenticated. I have most things set up OK I think, except for one thing, but I don't know were to look for it. The fact is pam tries to authenticate the user via mysql, but in the query it omits the domain from the mail-address. Where can I configure this ? I installed pam_mysql from the buildservice, but this did complain about some dependencies. As far as I could see all was installed, so I forced pam-mysql to be installed. Maybe that is the problem ? In /etc/pam.d this is smtp : #%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_mysql.so user=xxx passwd=yyy db=postfix table=mailbox usercolumn=username passwdcolumn=password crypt=1 account required pam_permit.so In the README in /usr/doc/packages/pam_mysql I read : For instance, if you want to use it in conjunction with Postfix, the SASL configuration file "smtpd.conf", which is put in the Cyrus-SASL's plugin directory (or the location included in the SASL_PATH environment variable), would look like the following: pwcheck_method: auxprop mech_list: plain login cram-md5 digest-md5 sql_engine: mysql sql_database: sys sql_user: someuser sql_passwd: fubar sql_select: SELECT password FROM users WHERE name='%u' and domain='%r'; But I don't find that smtpd.conf. I hope I made myself clear, so any suggestions ? Thanks. -- Met vriendelijke groeten, Koenraad Lelong R&D Manager ACE electronics n.v. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
