If you mean during the installation of Fedora Core
itself, then I don't think Tomcat is provided with
Fedora Core (please feel free to correct me if I'm
wrong).
This means you will probably need to download Apache
Jakarta Tomcat (either binaries, or the source which
you'll need to build) and install it.
Hope this helps.
All the best,
Rahul

SATA optical drives
by David Fletcher
I'm currently running FC5, will probably upgrade to F7 in a couple of months.
Unfortunately my CD/DVD rewriter appears to have died, before it's
even seen a dual layer disk :'(
SATA hard drives run without problems for me, but now that SATA
optical drives are starting to appear in the shops, would it be OK to
buy one of these and get rid of another wide ribbon cable?
Is anybody already running them with Fedora?
Thanks for any advice/experiences.

Changing date with procmail
by Michael A. Peters
Anyone know of a procmail recipe to change the date on incoming
messages?
If the date is in the future by more than 24 hours - I'd like to just
change it to the current date.
If the date is in the past by more than two weeks - I'd like to just
change it to the current date.
I'd like to do it in procmail - if someone knows how.
I've done some searching, still have some to do.
Found some stuff on extracting the date, but not on modifying it if
necessary.

VPN options
by Keith Lofstrom
I am planning on running a Virtual Private Network from my Fedora
firewall out to a UML virtual colo (running RH9) at another site.
That site will be the place I present services to the world;
httpd, ssh, sftp, smtp. This is to comply with the "no servers"
and dynamic ip restrictions on my Comcast connection to the net;
if my firewall always drives an outbound connection to the
colocation site, I am not worried about changes of ip address,
and I am not opening any inbound ports.
There are a number of options for the VPN - the most attractive
are cipe ( http://sites.inka.de/sites/bigred/devel/cipe.html )
and FreeSwan ( http://www.freeswan.org/ ), though I am told that
one can do all this through an ssh tunnel. I would rather have
simple and secure than super-duper; I have plenty of bandwidth,
and will send outbound http and smtp from the firewall, so the
main bandwidth user will be incoming spam/b/b/b/b mail.
Anyone have some experiences to share about setting up VPN? Is
there anything about either cipe or FreeSwan that is likely to
break with FC1 or FC2?

Problems with 3COM 3C900Combo
by Christian Moller
Hi all Fedora users,
I have just joined this list. I am running the latest Fedora but I can't get
my 3C900Combo networking card to work. I can see that the card is installed
but no IP-address is asigned to it and I can't set it. So I think that there
is a bug in that driver. Any other user out there who have a solution for
this?
Best regards and thanks,
Christian

RAGE XL Framebuffer
by Yanick Quirion
Hi all
I know that is not a specific question about Fedora, but I can't find answer on the kernel mailing list.
Is somebody having server with integrated ATI RAGE XL video card? Is it possible to patch the kernel to support this video card? If I add VGA=791 in my grub.conf, I will have a resolution of 1024x768 which is good, but the display is very slow (especially when the screen is scrolling). If I use I this: "video=aty128fb:1024x768@70" it will not work. I'm using kernel 2.4.22 but I will try 2.6.0-test11 today.
If somebody has a patch, a link or anything else that can help me, it will be appreciated.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,

AU files are Sun audio files - I have a very large number of them on a
Sun server.
Many of those do not play well on either of 2 f7 boxen (dual-core
Athlon, if relevant - YMMV). However, so far _all_ of the ones I have
tried work find with /usr/bin/aplay which is part of the alsa-utils
package.
Good luck

Linux software for Motorola Razor phone?
by William W. Austin
This may have been answered before, but scanning the archives, I
haven't found it (sorry...).
My wife recently surprised me with a new gsm phone, a Motorola Razor.
I already had the USB cable which works with it (use it with my
camcorder), but a web search for Linux software to use the phone with
one of my Linux boxen didn't turn up anything. Basically I want to
synchronize the calendar and phonebooks, and be able to back up files
from the phone to the computer (and restore). I'm running both FC4 and
FC5 here so anything which would work with either of those would be
great - and much apprecited.
Thanks in advance,
