Hi Luggerz,
I dont think this is quite as much about Linux as it should be, but
nevertheless i thought that Luggers will always be a valuable source of
information. So here is the deal.
I will be soon be having two computers,a laptop and a desktop(both are
relatively good ones). I have 30 gigs of hard-drive space on the laptop
which will need to run Windows(for voice conversation with people back home
:)), and 80gs on the desktop(which will be linux). These computers will be
connected to a common 10/100 Mbps switch. My question is how would i share
stuff between both machines i.e in effect, have a common 110 gb space which
can be accessed by both machines. I dont mind leaving aside 5gs for each OS,
but i still want to share the rest. Keep in mind that i intend to run a ftp
server, which is why i want shared space :).
Please feel free to answer whatever you feel is worthwhile. I have not been
able to make up my mind about anything, as quite franky i dont know enough
about networking multi-platform pcs, which is why i am looking for some
help. if u feel this is OT then please reply off the list, but please
provide me some input.
In advance, THANX

Hi Luggers,
I am currently in the process of building a custom
GNU/Linux system for myself using 'Linux From
Scratch' as a reference. How do I make a
distribution of my own, complete with a custom
installation script. Can anyone suggest some
literature which I could download.
Since I'm taking the pains/pleasure to select the
right mix of packages for myself I might as well
distribute it to others who want the same mix of
packages :-)

It seems the permissions for the maildirs are wrong. Just check if you have installed and configured qmail according to lwq.
Cheers,

Hi linuxers,
Is it possible to have two instances of qmail running
where one instance will handle remote mails and other
will handle local mails. I know how to run multiple
instances of qmail but could not find any information
on how to make them handle remote and local mail
seperatly. Please help.
Thanks in advance,
Sabu

the topics are related to IT) that are familiar or nearer to you,
either in electronic form or printed or photocopies or faxed or mailed

Thanks in advance.

Hi tahir,
The product was launched @ the IBM developerWorks Live!
event in Mumbai. Eventually I ended up using the
product. The interface looked pretty good and convenient to us ( as told to me by a CA) but I had a lot of trouble installing it due to it's dependencies.
It comes bundled with a custom Linux Distro though.
Still lots of scope for improvement. Also it's closed
source and not GPL.

LINUX, the fastest growing Operating Systems for 3 years across the
world is the choice of tomorrow - and that tomarrow has come. No
wonder that IBM, DELL, HP/COMPAQ, SUN, HCL and others have announced
LINUX based Computers and more are in the process of doing do.
KALCULATE fills-in a very important gap, that of an important
application missing in the bunch of software that a normal user (be it
home, office, traders, business, professionals, industry & others)
requires. Users normally need an Operating system, Office Suite,
Internet-software, Audio-video-graphics software, Games and Accounting
package.
