Digit has RH9 ISOs
by Chirag Wazir 19 Aug '03

19 Aug '03

Hi all, Just FYI, this month's Digit magazine has a DVD on the cover that includes the following ISO images: RedHat 9 (3 CDs) Mandrake 9.1 (1 CD) Peanut 9.5 (1 CD) Knoppix 3.2 (1 CD) There's also lots of other Linux software onboard. I haven't tried it yet but for those of us with a DVDROM & CDRW but no broadband, it seems great value for 100 bucks :-) Chirag Wazir http://chirag.freeshell.org

proxy & firewall
by T Roy 18 Aug '03

18 Aug '03

1. i wanted to know names of some good free proxy servers and also how to configure Mozilla for the same. 2. how to know that all my data is going through the proxy. can any tool like 'tcpdump' help ? 2. also how to get the Internet Firewall working( i am using RH 8.0 ). 3. how to know whether the firewall is working or not. any tools ? 4. One last question, i know i shouldnt be asking on this list, but then i am sure many people on this list use windows. i got infected by 'msblast.exe' and my Windows Management Instrumentation(WMI) seems to be screwed up, for which i cannot activate internet firewall( so i cant download DCOM patch from microsoft site ) nor can i do a system restore. my windows partition(Windows XP Professional) is disconnected from the internet and i have removed all traces of msblast.exe( ie /windows/system32 and registry ) but WMI just doesnt seem to work. Any suggestions ?? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo! DSL - Now only $29.95 per month! http://sbc.yahoo.com

Qmail forwarding some email
by Subba Rao 18 Aug '03

18 Aug '03

Hi, I have never done this before with Qmail. There is some email that I receive which I would like to be forwarded to a different email address. How can this be done in Qmail? If this cannot be done, I can use procmail to copy to the other address. However I would like to use Qmail to do it. Any information and pointers appreciated. Thank you in advance. -- Subba Rao subba9(a)cablespeed.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Old American Wild West saying: God created men but Colt made them equal.
