you need to find out which partition /var/log is on (probably part of /) and try and make it bigger or delete some stuff!

the reason its so fat is (perhaps) because mandrake doesn't compile much into the kernel but instead loads a lot of the stuff as modules.

not a yahoo user, but if you pop into the chat room ( link at top of page), there are a few people who can help.

Your screenshot shows that you've forwarded 5900 but above you have a link for ipaddress:5800. Are you sure your VNC server is listening on port 5900?

They do look pretty though...

geforce 4/2.5 GHz processor so no ;-) If you drag a window round really quickly the screen doesn't get refreshed and you get ghosts of the window left behind for a few milliseconds. Seems to happen a lot more in pixmap themes. Thats not annoying in itself, but its the most obvious (to me) manifestation of the slow 'feeling' using a pixmap theme gives me.

I wish there was a decent apple-like theme engine... some of the pixmap themes look so great, but i hate seeing window trails around my desktop. I never get them with bluecurve.

Riddler, you don't need a RH box in the middle, Dell probably just want to sell you a server. You just need this installed on each linux client: http://www.nongnu.org/grdesktop/shots.html

doing a graphical login into one computer so that you can do a graphical login into another computer sounds incredibly slow. What programs do you need to run on the windows server?

could they perhaps be categorised into subforums with a structure like musb structure above it? so networking, software, terminal shell..., etc edit: then i though, and moderation and comments to make them better and better. wiki?

I was quite a fan of Europe, Doesn't seem to be anything wrong with being part of a friendly club with similar ideals. I think the single market is a good idea too... but how the f*ck can this happen!

can you access the individual drak tools through a menu, do they have a similar problem?

Certainly nothing special, is amazing to use though... get a recent version of xcompmgr and start it using xcompmgr -cCfF -r7 -o.65 -l-10 -t-8 -D7 So many nice fading effects, and fast too. gnome 2.8 with a bluecurve theme and aqua extreme metacity. irssi and muine running. i guess i might as well nominate this

you said the pop daemons are listening as verified by netstat, is postfix listening on port 25?

Oh... how did you have it set up before? (the router that is) Perhaps its something straightforward like 10.1OE comes with a firewall running?

using your router's web interface, you need to 'port forward' port 80 on your router to port 80 on your webserver machine using the tcp protocol. Port forwarding is sometimes called 'applications' in the router software. Alternatively, you can take a shotgun approach and use a DMZ. Give your webservers ip address (something like 192.168.0.10) to the router to use as a DMZ and all incoming internet traffic is sent its way. If you do that, remember to setup a firewall on your computer.

Azureus will still work if it has NAT problems, it would just work better without them. I'd suggest trying azureus on windows and seeing if you get the same problem. If you do, doing the port forwarding thing will make azureus (and ABC) work better in both windows and linux

this isn't actually specific to linux at all - if you have a windows dual boot, do you have the same problem in windows with azureus?

you could still run your own smtp server but relay through the computers isp's mail server couldn't you?

you need to forward ports 6881-6890 to your desktop pc from your router. Give your computer a static ip address - eg 192.168.0.10 then use your routers web interface to forward the ports to that address. Alternatively you could make 192.168.0.10 a DMZ - all ports are forwarded there. If you do that make sure you setup your firewall because your computer will be open to the internet.

ports in shorewall are much more easily opened through the firewall section of the mandrake control center

Hashimoto, i had this problem on a friends computer, turns out he solved it by lowering the resolution from 75Hz to 70Hz using computer > system configuration > Screen Resolution. After that it was fine.

nice guide :) a mod should move this to tips and tricks

if the samba option isn't working, you could manually open ports 139 and 445 on both tcp and udp. There should be a line for manual options at the bottom of the firewall page in the control center

thats a beautiful desktop iphitus
