A user has written to me about a problem with my imap package but I don't know much about NFS. Can anyone offer me a clue?
It seems significant to me that he doesn't have problems connecting to another linux box (albeit RedHat not Debian) but not to Solaris. I seem to recall reading somewhere that Linux is missing some NFS daemon solaris has? Could that be it? -- Jaldhar H. Vyas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Hello, I've installed your debian imapd package but am having trouble commiting changes to my inbox, and I don't know why. Mail (/var/spool/mail) is NFS mounted from a directory on a SPARC, and I am trying to access the mailbox from another domain. I can successfully log in and read my mail, reply, etc, from Netscape, but no changes are being saved. Netscape also refuses to allow me to delete messages at all. I have no problem using another imap server within this domain (redhat/Alpha) so it's not a Netscape problem AFAICT. Any ideas why this may be so? A little diagram: ____ ____ ____ ____ / \ 10Mb / \ T1 / \ 10Mb / \ | me | ----- | AA | ----- | BB | ----- | CC | \____/ \____/ \____/ NFS \____/ "me" is my machine, an Intel running NT/Netscape. AA is an Alpha running Redhat/Linux, and acting as a masquerading firewall. It also has a functional IMAP server. BB is a SPARC running Solaris 2.4 that recieves mail, and CC is an Intel Debian/Linux that mounts the mail area from BB and runs an imap server, not really working. Thanks for any help you can give, Christopher
