Hello all, I'm Jennifer. I'm a webmaster and sysadmin for a shopping portal on the web. At home I run Mandrake Linux and BeOS. At work I administer Solaris 2.6. The first time I installed Linux was Thanksgiving 1995. I spent the entire Thanksgiving holiday entranced and was so proud when I go

1999-11-22 Thread Jennifer Tippens
Hello all! I'm using ipchains to filter packets. I have pop open from the outside so we can check our mail from home, I do not allow telnet into the box or ftp for that matter. How do I open up port 22 for ssh connections? I've tried: $IPCHAINS -A input -i $E_IF -p tcp -s 0/0 -d 0/0 22 -j ACCEPT

Hi! Love the show. Long time lurker, first time poster. I'm checking out two packages for my company for bug tracking, namely Bugzilla and Keystone. I think I like Bugzilla better because it seems more intuitive to me (I think it is prettier, also). Sooo, I went to install Bugzilla from sourc

Hello... Not sure if this is considered off-topic or not, but I need some advice on selecting a NIC for my printer. I have a Lexmark Optra S 1855 printer and would like to put a NIC in it. I have searched the net, but there seems to be no information on what kind of NIC might be compatable with

For the past two days my computer (dual proc p3 400, Redhat 6.1, usually running Netscape and gaim) has crashed more often than winows. Does anyone have any idea what might cause this? Is it likely to be hardware? Thanks, Jen [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.linuxchix.org

How about this, though. It is always the same inode-- When fscking, inode 818763 is always deleted with zero dtime. What does this show? I ran badblocks on /dev/hda1 (where the inode would be) and the system once again crashed. Thanks, Jen Robert B Benson wrote: > Greetings all, > > With inter

Hello again! I think I have done this correctly, but I've never used the dump command before, so there might be a better way. We have a 24G DDS3 tape drive, so I think I don't have to tell the dump program the density, blocksize or length, please let me know if I really should. Below is the
