Hi,
I recetly set up a brand new fres Centos 5.4 64 bit system and found a

My questions: Why is this done?
May I remove the i386 packages? (rpm -e )
I wanted to update today the installed packages and do get some dep

Hi folks
This question is about fetchmail running on my Centos 5.3 box.
I need to fetch my email from different accounts living on remote servers and
drop it on my local mailbox.
The question is wich way is faster for fetchmail... using POP3 or IMAP?
Thanks

Actually I'm using POP3, but just looking for improvements in speed. Plus,
fetchm,ail doesn't allow fetch more than one account at a time, and it's
kind slow in the secure handshaking. There is another package should I
"explore" using it to improve speed?
Thanks for your answer

You can configure fetchmail to grab email from more than one server - I'm
doing that now at home. I have a workstation VM that runs fetchmail - one
to pull mail from my mailserver and the other from Road Runner - one
config file, 2 different remote email accounts - 1 local user account...

You can definitely use the -f option to fetchmail. But the neat thing is,
you can supply multiple accounts - and multiple local users. For me I
supply 2 different pop servers and one local user - works great.

Would any of you be comfortable running the drbd packages from the

I'll do my own due diligence but just curious if the list has any

I will explain more deeply. I need to deploy a firewall(s) in front of web
server farm because I need to do billing - I will use CentOS with iptables +
ipset to store a list if my clients so when client doesn't pay his server's IP
is out of the list and he can't access the web server.

And now you mistyped your mistyping. That would be a backslash
(\) not a forward slash (/). Escaping the command name with a
backslash bypasses the "alias rm='rm -i'"
