by Marcio A. Regalado 02 Nov '05

02 Nov '05

Hello everybody Maybe this is a stupid queston but I really don't know what's going on with Squirrelmail I've installed it and when I try to log in to Squirrelmail after a few seconds I get the following error: Error connecting to IMAP server: publimotion.com.mx. 110 : Connection timed out publimotion.com.mx is the name of my server it is aliased from mail.publimotion.com.mx Can you guys please point me in the right direction?

SMTP Connection Refused
by Ki Song 02 Nov '05

02 Nov '05

I am running Fedora Core 4 using Postfix as my mail server. When I send/receive e-mail messages from an outside client (yahoomail, gmail, hotmail, etc.), the messages are delivered properly. However, when I send a message to a different e-mail server in house (store.knifecenter.com), it says the connection is refused. Here is the exact message that is returned in the postfix maillog: connect to store.knifecenter.com[70.88.225.6]: Connection refused (port 25) D7C9C3572A1: to=<listserv(a)store.knifecenter.com>, relay=none, delay=0, status=deferred (connect to store.knifecenter.com[70.88.225.6]: Connection refused) disconnect from unknown[10.1.10.19] What is going on? Any ideas?

RE: Unable to clear "Remember Me" passwords in FireFox

Thanks for replying. That was the the correct question, and the answer was: no. I had to kill all firefox browsers; one on the console and one in the remote desktop. Both were accessing the the same root-user folder but what was odd was that one of them had a different profile i.e. I was forced to create a new profile before I could open the browser so I was thinking that one profile was independent of the other - apparently that assumption was incorrect. Killing all instances and deleting the ~/.mozilla directory did the trick. Well, wonders never ceases :-) Dan >-----Original Message----- >From: fedora-list-bounces(a)redhat.com >[mailto:fedora-list-bounces@redhat.com]On Behalf Of gb spam >Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2005 12:26 PM >To: For users of Fedora Core releases >Subject: Re: Unable to clear "Remember Me" passwords in FireFox > > >On 11/2/05, Daniel B.

smeg replaced by alacarte, that doesn't work
by Tim 02 Nov '05

Hi, I just let yum update "smeg" with "alacarte", but found it crashes with spurious errors because it couldn't access a directory that it should have left alone (~/bin/). Anybody else get the same thing? $ alacarte (alacarte:2755): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `urgency_hint' for class `GnomeApp' (alacarte:2755): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `pack_direction' for clas s `GtkMenuBar' (alacarte:2755): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `child_pack_direction' fo r class `GtkMenuBar' (alacarte:2755): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `urgency_hint' for class `GtkDialog' (alacarte:2755): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `urgency_hint' for class `GtkDialog' (alacarte:2755): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `urgency_hint' for class `GtkDialog' (alacarte:2755): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `urgency_hint' for class `GtkDialog' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/alacarte", line 26, in ? main() File "/usr/bin/alacarte", line 23, in main GnomeFront() File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Alacarte/GnomeFront.py", line 69, in __ init__ self.dialogs = DialogHandler(self.tree, self.icon) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Alacarte/GnomeDialogHandler.py", line 4 1, in __init__ for name in os.listdir(path): OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/home/tim/bin' There's nothing in that bin directory for it to use. And when I changed the permissions to let it, it didn't actually do anything in there. I changed the permissions and it doesn't crash, anymore, but there's still a plethora of warnings: $ alacarte (alacarte:2870): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `urgency_hint' for class `GnomeApp' (alacarte:2870): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `pack_direction' for class `GtkMenuBar' (alacarte:2870): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `child_pack_direction' for class `GtkMenuBar' (alacarte:2870): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `urgency_hint' for class `GtkDialog' (alacarte:2870): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `urgency_hint' for class `GtkDialog' (alacarte:2870): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `urgency_hint' for class `GtkDialog' (alacarte:2870): libglade-WARNING **: unknown property `urgency_hint' for class `GtkDialog' art_render_invoke: no image source given art_render_invoke: no image source given ... with the last error continually repeating as you use the program -- Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.

Derek's position is that one should provide some background information or a short blurb about a link they're posting in their email. This is entirely resonable. To attack him for this position is, well, unreasonable. As for hints on how to do this easily without breaking the flow of your messages, it's become common practise in some circles to use footnotes in your email. For example: "If you're really interested in getting involved in Fedora[1] then check out their website. There is also great information to be had on the official message boards[2]. [1] http://fedora.redhat.com/ [2] http://fedoraforum.org/" That's a pretty simple way one can include links in their emails while enforcing the idea that links to information should come with some description of the information they're linked to. -- Chris "`The enemy we fight has no respect for human life or human rights. They don't deserve our sympathy,' he said. `But this isn't about who they are. This is about who we are. These are the values that distinguish us from our enemies.' - Sen. John McCain, R-Arizona

RE: Hitchhiker's Guide to the linux administration
by Fritz Platzke 02 Nov '05

If you don't need alot of info, check out LogWatch. It will send you a nightly email whenever changes are posted to the system logs. You can tailor the reports to show exactly what you need, such as failed logins and system warnings. And best of all, it should already be installed so all you have to do is edit the configuration files. -Fritz > -------- Original Message -------- > Subject: Hitchhiker's Guide to the linux administration > From: Franck Y <franck110(a)gmail.com> > Date: Wed, November 02, 2005 9:49 am > To: For users of Fedora Core releases <fedora-list(a)redhat.com> > > Hello Everyone ! > > I am currently doing a part job for keeping working a linux server.

Re: Spurious keyboard repeats with Kernel 2.6.13-1532 and 2.6.14-1633
by Gavin Graham 02 Nov '05

> What do the remaining troubles look like? > -Andy I still get plenty of keyboard repeats. Sound is choppy. Dragging a window around causes the clock to run fast. Mouse clicks repeat too. I guess 2.6.14 did make it slightly better but it is still unusable. Gavin.
