/etc/modutils/aliases too, (and run update-modules after) since your

Alternatiely, you can swap the order of ide-scsi and ide-cd in

hey,
on a couple of servers, i am running postfix with qpopper to provide
POP3 service to my clients. since i have disabled telnet and would
much rather not give shell access the first place, i would like to
meet my clients' demands of remote mail access with a nice mail2web
interface, which works
hey, wondering if anyone can help me out... not using anything but
scripting methods, how could i check a file system subtree for
changes? i need "immediate rsync", so ideally the script
"trigger-on-change" would operate like:
while true; do
trigger-on-change ~/data
# trigger-on-change returns
hi,
i am running a postfix/qpopper/task-imap/imp mail server and i would
like to keep user's mail spools in $HOME rather than /var/mail. is
this possible while still sticking to the debian package system?
alternatively, is there a way to keep the mail spool in /var/mail but
also to duplicate it in
so i established my own certificate authority and have a server
certification - and now i would like to create a new server
certificate, signed by the same ca. however, when i do
mod-ssl-makecert, i get:
diamond:/etc/apache# mod-ssl-makecert
What type of certificate do you want to create ?

it's a kernel option. i have rtc as a module and then
alias char-major-10-135 rtc

well, except this is more of a hack and postfix will replace the
symlinks with real files
