Maybe I should be asking a different question...

What tools do I need to have multiple mailboxes for multiple domains on the same hardware? Like a shared server, expect all the accounts are mine....

OK I got it working:

It works with /home/username/mbox as the file to use in exim's configuration.
Considering I have 3 domains mapped my server, each with 5 or 6 mail account I dont want to...

Hi,

I've got UW-IMAP installed on Gentoo. I'm using EXIM as the transfer agent.

EXIM is working fine (I think)... all incoming mail - external and internal goes to /var/mail/username file. I...

OK so to save space does this make any sense?

Take for example the PHP5 insatllation:


gunzip php5.x.x-versionstuff.tar.gz
tar xvf php5.x.x-versionstuff.tar
cd php5.x.x-versionstuff...

About the 02 vs 2 thing...

From other programming language experience I'd guess not since putting zero at the front usually indicates on octal value (0x2 is hexadecimal out of interest by the...

Hi,

I still don't know if there's a standard way to do this. I'm hoping there's a *more or less* standard way to do this across linux platforms but the platform in question is Gentoo.

Let's...

Yes it is supposed to be "all garbled". It's not ascii coding, it's the first 512 bytes of your boot partition ;)

Can you remember your partition structure off the top of your head? (or even...

OK I've given up on Cyrus. It keeps giving errors over gcc during ./configure.

From what I'm googling other's are having the same problem on Gentoo.

Time to try something else....

I'm...

Hi,

I've just got my first dedicated server but it's one of these DIY things (great for the web hosting side of it for me) where I have to install everything myself (even the image for Gentoo).
...

Ah OK thanks never mind :p

I needed to (as root) run this command afterwards:


passwd d11wtq


I should have known that since I run passwd on a 30 day cycle anyway, I just hadn't thought...

Hi,

Just got a dedicated server account for web hosting. I have some linux experience since the past 3 months I've been using SuSE and aint even touvhed windows but now I know I've relied too much...

Thanks for pointing me the right way. I decided I'm going to end up with too many disks to put anywhere if I do a FULL backup weekly so what I'm doing instead is to backup the regularly changed...

Hi,

I'm about to start a regular backup schedule for my Linux system.

I need some pointers if I may :)

The system is *mainly* used as a personal home computer (it's actually a laptop running...

Yep there's tonnes of free Linux distro's.

Some of them (SuSE is one) don't even require you download the ISO... you can install directly over FTP (yay!).

By the way. Your thread title helps...

What method of backup are you using?

Also, what happens when you try to boot (you say it wont boot but what's the error you see?).

Cheers,

I strongly advise you use PHP. It's much easier to work with if you use SAPI on your web server.

I can help you with this if you need (I made a similar script myself...).

Hi,

Is there anything you can do to a *nix (SuSE Linux actually) which allows it to *try* to do a reboot if something crashes the system?

I know they have something at work (but I don't work...

OK thanks... I know that it can be done in specific cases but I was just wondering if generally this procedure could be done for theoretically *any* process.

I don't know how suspending jobs works...

Hi,

Say for example I'm doing a very large scp transfer (which I am) and I keep stopping it with CTRL+Z because other people on my network need the bandwidth too. I can restart it no problem with...

Genius!! I didn't know that. I'm about to google so I dunno why I'm asking but.... does that mean I can be logged on to KDE locally and another user can remote in and log on as themselves and be...

Yes it's just the -a option. That preserves ALL attributes. Permissions, ownership, creation time, modification time etc etc etc....

It's what you use for backups ;)

Hi,

I don't mean the client.... I mean the server - I have the client to connect to a windows citrix server already.

The next best thing I can use at present is VNC (I only want remote desktop,...

Google for ndiswrapper ;) Then just use the windows drivers!

Forget FTP for something like this. I think scp will be much easier. Even better, set up a NFS share.

OK I feel like a muppet now lol.

iptraf

does exactly what I want and more. Just configure it to show KBytes rather than kbits and look under detailed status.

Good good... carry on :p
