best NFS client for Windows
by Dr. Michael J. Chudobiak
Hi all,
Does anyone have suggestions for the "best" nfs client to allow Windows
2000 to access FC5 exports?
MS SFU seems sort of flaky. Shaffer DiskAccess claims "Packet-Smart
tunes NFS packet transmissions, dramatically reducing packet count" but
I can't tell if that's a real useful advantage or marketing mumbo-jumbo.
I just want something reliable, without noticeable lags, for both local
and over-ADSL connections. I don't need fancy printer re-direction, etc.
Suggestions/experiences appreciated!

windowmaker and gnome-panel
by wwp
Hello all,
I'm pretty sure I've seen some informations about this here, but couldn't
cast a correct search to bring any result when looking the archives.
The point is: how to start gnome-panel properly when using Window Maker as
the default windowmanager? I tried to start gnome-panel to get both
gnome-panel, gconfd, nautilus and other gnome-things but it seems that dbus
something is missing (and maybe more?).
Any hint?
Regards,

mysqld processes using 405% of my RAM
by Phil
Hi,
I am using Fedora Core 3.
Recently I have noticed that there are about 12 to 15 mysql processes
running on my server. Is there a way to limit these processes? I have
limited my httpd to 4 processes but I do not know how to limit the mysqld
processes? All of the mysqld process are using 4.5% of the RAM so needless
to say it is eating up alot of my ram...
Any help would be great...
Thanks.

Well that's part of the idea. I have a DOS program (accounting) which
can only write out to LPT1, LPT2 or to a file. The latter is a pain. I
used to use redirection to divert the output which the program thought
it was sending to LPT2, to a networked printer.
I'm looking for something to do the same thing under Fedora 5. The link
you point to, does the first portion (redirection) but appears to be
tied to piping the input into ghostscript's pdfwriter.
What I am looking for is the Linux equivalent of the Windows program
REDMON (which does the first bit.)

removing ssh access in an emergency
by Ian Malone
This occurred to me this morning:
I log into my home machine remotely using an ssh
authorised key which I keep on a USB stick. In the
event it was lost or stolen it's pretty unlikely anyone
would use it to try to break into my machine, but
ideally you would want a remote way to disable the key.
Has anyone thought about this?
My first thought was a user account with password
authentication that instead of a login shell would run a
program which deleted the authorized_keys file in
question. Is this open to exploitation? (other than
running the risk that someone cracks the password
and prevents me logging in)

require some details about fedora
by sarath babu
Hi everybody,
Recently i tried to install Redhat ELv4 in my system. But i failed to do so, It gave a message that "NO HARD DRIVE IDENTIFIED".
My requirement is to use some development tools like JAVA, ORACLE 10g, and LANGUAGES LIKE C, C++... And i found Fedora is the version similar to ELv4 and more for a developing purpouse. If it is so please suggest me that so that i can install it in my system.
My system configuration is:
Asus K8s MX mother board,
AMD 2800+ 64 bit processor,
Segate 80 gb SATA harddisk,
256 RAM.
Waiting for response........
