I have LE2005, running firefox 1.07 -- from rpm and 1.5 downloaded from mozilla.
you dont need to remove the one from rpm... the one that came from mozilla/firefox website is a tar.gz, when you untar it, you can then use it readily, just untar it under /usr/local/ will become /usr/local/firefox-1.5, the one that came from rpm will be installed at /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox.
.
normally, when you hit the icon of currently installed firefox, it will lunch the firefox-1.07.. so, to lunch the firefox 1.5 in particular, you can create a new link to application in your desktop and point the command as /usr/local/firefox-1.5/firefox
.
.
if you have some working plugins that resides in you /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins, you can just then copy that into /usr/local/firefox-1.5/plugins, for them to work also on that version...
.
conficts, only if you have some themes or extensions installed using your 1.07 and is not yet supported with 1.5, once you run the new firefox the firt-time, it will check for any conflict and will let you check then install if there are already updated version of that theme or extension

[ aww, not only Mandriva, the security alterations in apache 2 have broken several commercial websites on upgrading, the error messages even state it's RHEL 4 based servers with the broken apache ]
Im using Centos 4, which is a RHEL 4 clone, and I find the apache webserver works fine, even if I did the up2date and upgraded the Centos 4 to Centos 4.2... of course, after you do an OS upgrade, you have to check the apache config file, the file might have been replaced with the default httpd.conf .. and the working httpd.conf file might had been renamed as httpd.conf.rpmsave

Im not sure if there's a problem with the built-in ethernet card of yours, but if you have a spare eth card, it might be good to try it ( another eth card) and disable the built-in ethercard..

AFAIK, shorewall is just like guardog, it depends on iptables, so they should be running at the same time... well, you can just define it to be always on via MCC, so as with shorewall

@ramfree
if I have a user@yahoo.com.ph, what pop server should I have to use?
.
then in the username field on my emai client, should I put "user" only or should it be like "user@yahoo.com.ph"?
TIA
edit:
never mind, got it already :P
I am now able to access my yahoo via thunderbird thru POP3

If you install firefox via urpmi, then it usually be installed at /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox-1.0.7/
.
and /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox-1.0.7/plugins/
for the plugins, that is... the plugin will be available to all..
.
if you install firefox from the installer you get from their website, then you usually it will be /usr/local/firefox
.
and for the plugins
/usr/local/firefox/plugins
.
hope I dont mis-lead you :P

if you have'nt tried it...

With Yahoo, you have to pay money for pop access.This is not true. I don't pay for my Yahoo mailbox which gives me pop/smtp access and a 100MB mailbox and the ability to send 10MB of attachments per message.(Which is quite enough for my needs.)
if that's real, can you tell what pop server of yahoo are you using... pop.mail.yahoo.com wont allow, I tried it awhile ago..

i have screen installed on my 10.1, I just dont remember which repo it came from, but if not found in your free 3cd, it might be at contrib, or main, so, just setup urpmi repositories then #urpmi screen
btw, I just recently learned screen and it is a very usefull tool, thanks to steve's post about screen

if you are using mandriva, in console as root
#draksec
it would open draksec gui.. see attached
try to allow remote root login by changing the value to yes...
actually, have'nt tried it myself, since I tried not to allow direct root login or remote root login.. so please post if that works...

theres stuff about "domain controllers" which I haven't really got a clue about - masters, slaves, etc etc do I need any of that stuff?
you dont need this domain controllers for that, its more complicated, you just need samba to act as a stand-alone server...
Do I need to add users or would that automatically happen during install ???Do I need samba users for both myself and partner on the linux box ???
you need to add a user in your linux box that you should use on your windows 98, then add it again in your smbpasswd file.. say.. in you linux, you add an account named
"linuxuser" & "98user"
linuxuser is the one you're logging on your linux ( you can do so with "98user")
98user is for your windows 98.. for it to access samba.. you should as root;
#smbpasswd -a 98user -- enter password: enter password again:
-- the password that you will be using on this dose not necesarilly be the same as the password you assign in your linux but no roblem if they are the same.
after that, the usename "98user" ( or what ever username you created) should be the username that you will be using when logging on your win98 laptop, that would allow the laptop to access samba ( assuming that the samba has been configure and the problem was with users accounts)
-
netfs should be on when you want to mount samba shares, if the problem is with permission, if you have a root access on that pc (am sure you have since you were able to disble those services mentioned :P ) try to, as root
#chmod 755 -R /var/videogallery
that would give permission to
owner - rwx = 7
group - rx = 5
other ( or all users ) - rx = 5
-R = recursive, so the permission will be applied to folder videogallery and all files on it
-
and the other way of stopping it...
open #draksec
see attched..
then to periodic check, just press the arrow down and select "yes", "no", and "default"...

which do you prefer the printer to be connected permanently? in your xp or linux box? you can access the printer anyway even if you connected it to xp, as long as they see each other (linux and xp) and shared the printer on your network... ( assuming that hp1210 works fine on CUPS) then start cups and add printer...
when you installit in your linux ( the printer) of course there will be a little changes on your xp since you will then add a new printer on both machine, since the computer that hosted the printer changes

thanks for the info, Ill try it later....

this will not answer directly your questions, but might help on setting up a mail server that depends on mysql database

I have tried it successfully on centos but never made it on mandriva

sorry for that double post.. anyway, I created the image with dd following your instruction on the previous post, and I formatted the image as fat32, as you can see, I actually booted to windows.. this disk error happened also when I tried installing XP, that was why I switch to win2k, is there any other way to create an image? aside of using dd?
-
just installed win2k on my le2005 using Qemu, but its really too slow, not the native speed that I expected.. then I tried to shutdown and boot again with the command
qemu -m 196 hd.img
and this is what I get
Bochs BIO, 1 cpu, $Revision: 1.110 $ $Date: 2004/05/31 13:11:27 $ ata0 master: QEMU HARDDISK ATA-2 Hard-Disk (2000 Mbytes0 ata0 slave: Unknown device ata1 master: QEMU CD-ROM ATAPI-4 CD-Rom/DVD-Rom ata1 slave: Unknown device Booting from Hard Disk... Disk error Press any key to restart Booting from Hard Disk... Disk error Press any key to restart
I spend several hours on installing but this is what I got after restarting the virtual pc..
any idea?
-
if you have'nt done any repartition of reformatting yet on your previuos mandriva install, I guess you can still login to failsafe mode... If you noticed that option during your lilo or grub loader, choose the failsafe, you'll go directly unto a terminal as root, there you can add a user and its pasword
[root@box aioshin]# useradd linuxuser [root@box aioshin]# passwd linuxuser Changing password for user linuxuser. New UNIX password: Retype new UNIX password: passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully. [root@box aioshin]#ls /home/ drwx------ 17 aioshin aioshin 4096 Oct 21 16:55 aioshin/ drwxr-xr-x 3 linuxuser linuxuser 4096 Dec 13 12:47 linuxuser/ [root@box aioshin]#
above, I added the account name linuxuser, then issued passwd so I can assign a password for it, automatically a linuxuser home directory was created under /home, then after that, try to reboot to normal kernel then when ask for a username, you have it already

I think, the easiest way to do it ( mounting ) is the way you mount it in your windows box... you can set it to be mounted the next time the windows computer boot .
well, the way you want it, I have not tried it on a stand alone ( simple sharing) samba configuration, but I have tried it when samba act as a Primary Domain Controller, since the home of each user (on windows) on these setup (PDC) actually resides on samba server... and its just being mounted on windows when a user has log-on... but the setup is more complicated than a regular stand-alone samba server
you might find something similar to what you want here.
