Hi
I have just configured the sendmail8.9.3 on debian.
My hostname is scud . I have not configured the dns .

I am getting this errors.

Marc Haber mentioned this yesterday and I mistakenly sent him a private

/usr from a CD or preferably from a server via nfs.
My goal is to be able to stick a floppy in an ailing W95/98/
I am trying to install glib-1.2.5 from source, but I keep getting errors
that seem to be stemming from /usr/local/include/string.h. That file

This is just another crazy thought on the subject. My backup strategy is a
little different. I run both NT server and Linux. Both are Internet
servers where data changes very rarely. I am using PowerQuest drive image
to make images of both hard drives in both servers. Neither server takes up

Could someone give me a sample script (perhaps bash or sed) to change a
group of filenames from their original name to the same name preceeded
by an exclamation point. For example, changing the following filenames
from:
test1.cnm
test2.cnm
to
!test1.cnm
!test2.cnm
Thanks!

the Netscape pkg that dselect has requires it for certain versions of
