If you are going to do calendar/scheduling at all, you
need to
make the changes happen quickly and automatically.
The reason
it's difficult/impossible for standards-based stuff is
that
the RFC's only cover wire-level transmission format,
not how
things are stored or how they interact with each
other. So,
there are some standards for how a calendar event
would be
transmitted, and there are standards for how things
like that
are attached to email messages, but there aren't any
for
how a mail server or agent interacts with a calendar
or notification
service.
_______________________________________
When I asked about 'exchange' type services for Linux
as I had just set up a
couple of clients on PCs and Macs (via Entourage) with
some hosted exchange
servers. The features are definitely nice. I think,
however, since it's
MS--it means a lot of hassles and unforeseen
difficulties as patches arise
from patches. In essence, Exchange has "all the bases
covered" as you say.
What I'm really anxiously awaiting, however, is the
Mozilla Sunbird project.
When that starts out with some real usable betas and
an eventual release,
I'll be in calendar/contact heaven!
Thanks for the help all!
Corey

You can do email with about any imap client.
Exchange2000 and
up has some documented web connector access that
Evolution is
able to use, but my company is still using version 5
so I keep
a windows laptop on my desk just for outlook and an
occasional
visio drawing, even though I do most email on my Linux
desktop
using evolution with an imap connection.

"exchange server" for Linux
by Corey Head
Hello!
Does anyone know of an "exchange server" made for
Linux? If there's one
that's Open Source, that would be best--i.e., free.
However, I can't
imagine something of that magnitude could be free.
Any suggestions
appreciated.

Network Monitoring App
by Timothy A. Holmes
Good Morning everyone:
A couple weeks ago someone mentioned a network app (as an alternative to
NAGIOS) that would routinely ping / query different servers / services
around the network and report their status, provide alarming etc. I
filed the link in my e-mail and then promptly lost the e-mail. If
anyone remembers that particular application (or knows of a similar one)
I would be most interested in it, Its time to get some monitoring set
up on this network
Thanks

NFS and denying access to subnets
by Neil Marjoram
OK I've been trying for ages now but I just can't seem to get this into
my head.
I have 8 subnets on my network 10.1.1.0 mask is 255.255.255.224 or /27,
I would like all but one of these subnets to be able to mount from my
NFS server. So I thought I'd add the relevant lines into
/etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny;
It's long, so I've shortened it.
/etc/host.allow
portmap:10.1.1.0/255.255.255.224
lockd:10.1.1.0/255.255.255.224
mountd:10.1.1.0/255.255.255.224
rquoted:10.1.1.0/255.255.255.224
statd:10.1.1.0/255.255.255.224
portmap:10.1.1.32/255.255.255.224
lockd:10.1.1.32/255.255.255.224
mountd:10.1.1.32/255.255.255.224
rquoted:10.1.1.32/255.255.255.224
statd:10.1.1.32/255.255.255.224
And all the other 5 networks.
And in the /etc/hosts.deny
portmap:10.1.1.160/255.255.255.224
lockd:10.1.1.160/255.255.255.224
mountd:10.1.1.160/255.255.255.224
rquoted:10.1.1.160/255.255.255.224
statd:10.1.1.160/255.255.255.224
I have restarted NFS and Portmap, but alas those systems on the 160
network can still mount and see nfs mounts.
Am I barking up the wrong tree and is there an easier way to accomplish
this ?
Many thanks
Neil.

problem with cgi-bin rewrite
by Andreas Sartori
hi all,
i got some serious problem regarding my webserver.
in former times our webserver hat the public_html structure like:
/home/$user/
/home/$user/cgi-bin
now, we got much more people to serve, we did the home structure like,
for security reasons cgi-bin is at the same directory level as htdocs:
/home/$city/staff/$user/htdocs
/home/$city/staff/$user/cgi-bin
/home/$city/student/$user/htdocs
/home/$city/student/$user/cgi-bin
i found no way to serve cgi functinality to our students.
it should be accessed by ~user/cgi-bin/...
i tried alot with scriptaliasmatch, wrote some rewrite map/rule,
but seems like i cant combine scriptaliasmatch and a rewritemap.
anyone knows how to make this working.
thanks in advice
-andy

increasing XFS on a hardware RAID
by Masopust, Christian
Hi all,
i've 2 hardware RAIDs with about 2.6TB on it and added some
new disks. my RAIDs are currently increasing the logical drives.
what are the next steps? do i need to run "parted" to increase
partition size or is it enough to run xfs_growfs ?
Sorry for this newbie-like question....
Thanks,
Christian
