Hi,
It appears that Sendmail in Debian 3.0 comes with TLS enabled.
I have been through sendmail.org to no avail. Is there an easy way of
disabling it ? and what are the consequences. I don't have roving users,
and the network is static so entries in the relay_domains would suffice.

Hi,
I don't know if this is related or not...
Sendmail used to hang on me with no network (for a min or so) until I put an
entry in the hosts file to cover the domain name.
Sendmail was trying to look up the mailname on the nonexisting network.

Hi,
I posted a log similar to this yesterday, but the packets are coming in more
regularly now, and only a few seconds apart. A 408 I have found out is a
"Request timeout". Does this hang one of the apache tasks up ? Is it
something I need to be concerned about ? My thoughts are that it is a p

I have been running Linux 2.0.36 for the past year on 3 sites and have had
ext2 go down on each of them after a power failure.
Much of the time running fsk manually fixed the problem, other times the
systems were totally unbootable.
The problem has gotten so bad that we have had to put UPS backups
Also have you set up your input/output rules ?

The spots which come immediately to mind are
change the entry in the /ets/hosts file < this
change the entry in the /etc/hostname file <--- and this should match
mailname in /etc
run sendmailconfig (or the config for your mail program)

You've probably looked at this already...but...
Have a look in Control Panel / System / Device Manager on the 95 machine and
go Properties on the network card. See if it reports that the network card

Hi,
I have been asked to get satelite internet reception working on a linux box.
Currently it is working on a 98 box but is not 'sharable' across the

Any clues as to where to go for the drivers etc ?

Also have a look at the "modules" file in /etc to make sure you are not

recreated on installation of the new kernel.

I have used socks, and ipmasq and transproxy (just to toss another one into
the pile)
If you are only after ftp or http proxying then squid or transproxy or
socks is possibly the way to go, although if you are connecting through a
modem from the linux box to your ISP, you may be better off setting

If your ISP requires pap authentication, you need to uncomment the
+pap line in your options file.
Also he may not require you to run a script..
You might try taking out the login and password references in your script,
as ppp authentication should take care of it. My ISP does it this way.
