After installing mindi system won't boot
I am testing mindi and mondo, but after installing mindi, install mdadm too, and asked me some question referred to raid (I think so), well I answered either no or none to questions, and after reboot, it seems that kernel search for raids, but I have one single disk, and it stops searching for a root filesystem or something so...

Opinions XFS
Hi I was reading http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs/index.html and was amazed because XFS powerful features. But I'd like opinions if xfs should be a good alternative to ext3 in typical cases, or if it should be relegated to critical missions servers.

Sendmail +SASL +openldap
Hi community I have to authenticate Sendmail using openldap (I can't choose another SMTP is for my job, also I've already got cyrus-imap using sasl and openldap). Should I SASL in order to integrate both sendmail and openldap. Or does another way exist of performing this task?

No auth and nonauth sendmail in same config.
Hi community I have an authenticated sendmail. I want to modifiy it in order to: *All mail sent to mydomain.com is not authenticated *All mail sent to any domain different as mydomain.com be authenticated (TLS included). How can I do that? (I don't refer to complete procedure, but how can I do to "separate" mail by destination) I was looking at access and mailtertable but it seems that those don't help me.

Howto set headers from sendmail.mc
Hi Richard,
Thanks for your help!
I'm keep on setting sendmail :)
I add a header setting in sendmail.cf (I added something as
H?X?X-Authorization-Id: how=${auth_type} who=${auth_authen}
, but everytime that I rebuild it via m4 (I use mainly sendmail.mc),
header settings are lost.
So, I'd want to know if there is a way in order to set headers in
sendmail.mc too.
Thanks in advance!!!!

Howto enqueue with no sending in sendmail
Hi community, I am performing some tests with sendmail. I have 2 queue groups defined by : QUEUE_GROUP(`outside',`P=/var/spool/mqueue/outside, R=0, r=10 I=6m')dnl QUEUE_GROUP(`mqueue',`Path=/var/spool/mqueue, F=f, R=10, r=100, I=1m')dnl And documentation says "The maximum number of queue runners for an individual queue group can be controlled via the Runners option. If set to 0, entries in the queue will not be processed, which is useful to ''quar- antine'' queue files. The number of runners per queue group may also be set with the option MaxRunnersPerQueue, which applies to queue groups that have no individual limit. That is, the default value for Runners is MaxRunnersPerQueue if set, otherwise 1." But I set to "0" `outside' queue group and however sendmail keeps on sending mail. I've added to access: QGRP:whateverdomain.com outside I want to mails sent to whateverdomain.com stay in enqueued (because are only for testing purposes) How can I do that?? Thanks in advance! -- -- Sergio Belkin -

Radius using passwd file
Hi,
I am trying to run radius in order to authenticate against
passwd/shadow files (unix users), but I can't do that.
In radiusd.conf I have:
unix {
cache = no
cache_reload = 600
passwd = /etc/passwd
shadow = /etc/shadow
group = /etc/group
radwtmp = ${logdir}/radwtmp
}
And users file contains:
DEFAULT Auth-Type = System
Fall-Through = 1
When I issue :
radtest test test localhost 0 testing123
It outputs:
Sending Access-Request of id 11 to 127.0.0.1:1812
User-Name = "test"
User-Password = "test"
NAS-IP-Address = spike.myhost.com
NAS-Port = 0
Re-sending Access-Request of id 11 to 127.0.0.1:1812
User-Name = "test"
User-Password = "\223O%\23105\016T\244\227\035\201\255a%{"
NAS-IP-Address = spike.myshost.com
NAS-Port = 0
rad_recv: Access-Reject packet from host 127.0.0.1:1812, id=11, length=2
Why??
Thanks in advance!

OT:weird problem downloading big files
Hi, I've stuck with a weird problem... I can't download "big" files, I mean, I can't download well DVD iso files, for example, if I try download any file of http://linux.cucea.udg.mx/geeklog/staticpages/index.php?page=20080123170324195 I get something so: wget http://linux.cucea.udg.mx/espejo/Mandriva/2008.0/mandriva-linux-2008.0-free-dvd-i586.iso --00:40:53-- http://linux.cucea.udg.mx/espejo/Mandriva/2008.0/mandriva-linux-2008.0-free-dvd-i586.iso => `mandriva-linux-2008.0-free-dvd-i586.iso' Resolviendo linux.cucea.udg.mx... 148.202.23.6 Connecting to linux.cucea.udg.mx|148.202.23.6|:80... conectado.

Same problem using either Mandriva 2008 or Fedora 8 :( Thanks in advance, and I'm sorry for the OT -- Sergio Belkin
