Postfix -bs mode?
by Nikhil Joshi 05 Oct '04

05 Oct '04

Hi! I am trying to send a mail from a script like cat /tmp/mymail.txt | sendmail where sendmail is the sendmail interface provided by Postfix. mymail.txt contains a valid From: field which is like my_id(a)yahoo.com However when I see the mailq, the sender field says: "root(a)localhost.localdomain" I tried the sendmail -bs switch but it gives following message: 220 localhost.localdomain ESMTP Postfix 221 Error: I can break rules, too. Goodbye. How do I override the root(a)localhost.localdomain ? Thanks, Nikhil P.S. Incidently pine manages to send mails by a different From name than that of user@domain. -- Miss Wormwood, could we arrange our seats in a little circle and have a little discussion?

Re: [ILUG-BOM] Horrible Experience with Redhat

Trevor, the gripe yatayati has is not what you are addressing. If I had been treated that way by redhat, I would have boycotted them for life and would make all out efforts to have them kicked out of all my client sites. I work with microsoft who are the most commercial of all companies, also holds many senimars which we attend. Believe me, they will never do something like this. Neither do oracle or ibm whose seminars we attend. Every company gives high values, respect and respect to consultants and advisors because clients will not iuse their products if not recommended by the consultants. I do not know who else they turned back that day, but it will cost them dearly.

Some observations for the deeply hurt, newbies etc. First using GNU/Linux does not confer on u some heaven sent halo. U & I are going to be treated based solely on our reputations (bussiness, academic, social or otherwise) by bussiness organistaions. Infact using GNU/Linux will put u under great stress while dealing with various bussinesses because the people answering u have been honed into perfect zombies (my personal favourite is Orange). Second all bussinesses exist to fatten the owners, managers and employees (weightage keeps shifting from time to time). All the other drivel that they spew is towards meeting this goal.If the managers are cunning they will manipulate things to get minimum flack and generally stay below the horizon of vociferous fringe groups shouting nonsense like freedom and morals and what have u. Redhat, Novell, IBM,M$, Oracle, Intel, U, I etc. are all fighting the same battle using different weapons and strategies. U & I are distractions in the battle of the big boyz for the booty. Thirdly promoting GNU/Linux to the masses is at best a utopian pass time.The current set of GNU/Linux (5% of computer users) constitutes the top 1% of tech savvy (intelligent?) homosapiens. That is sufficient because it is this miniscule minority which always determines which way society will move in the long term - inspite of whatever M$ can throw. One must be clear in accepting the FSF philosophy which is about freedom (or changing the ground rules) and the opensource philosophy which is about bussiness (or battle strategy). Longterm social goals aimed at empowering individuals is anthema to any bussiness. Dealing with unpredictable imdividuals does not allow zombification of products and processes, which translates to high costs and withering margins to organistions, which reduces the need for large bussiness organisation. A simple case in point. The neighbourhood tailor. He stitches a shirt which fits you well in a colour u like and with buttons that dont fall off when u sneeze at a very reasonable price. And the van heusen, peter london, Raymond or xyz brand - a few sizes, a few colors, and tons of mind bending ads - god what a incomplete AH u r if u did not wear that complete man outfit guaranteed to blow a tunnel thru ur pocket all the way to ur future bank vault. Or the pepsi, coke, caffiene-cocaine-pesticide laced water. What's wrong with nimbu pani? But then i suppose it's just me not being a zombie. jtd

[OT] Space Tourism Idea
by Rony Bill 02 Oct '04

02 Oct '04

Hello Luggers, Space tourism is now a possible reality with the successfull flight of a private space craft. Many years ago I observed the spinning wheel in the starting video of the TV serial 'Mahabharata'. That gave me an idea of creating artificial gravity in space for the convenience of space travellers. Imagine a spinning wheel having a thick hollow circumference. This hollow circumference will be the rooms of the space building. The actual circumference wall will be the floor of the rooms which will be interconnected in a round circle. As the wheel spins, it creates centrifugal force and this force pushes the people and material against the outer wall (floor). This is artificial gravity. As I don't know the calculations, I am not in a position to know the practical maximum diameter as well as the rotation speed that can be possible in space. Even if we cannot get full gravity, a partial one will be very handy for tourists who may find the process of using the toilet under zero gravity conditions awkward and revolting. This will also keep the body in earth like familiar conditions for longer stay in space. The centering balance of the wheel can be done by having pumps that will pump liquid mercury into hollow chambers all along the circumference, according to the weight imbalance, in a sensing similar to car wheel balancing. Mercury is the heaviest liquid and will occupy minimum volume. The Indian hotel industry should come together to create hotels and recreation centres in space before others get into the race. We will need hotels, cinema halls, reception halls (for space marriages and birthday bashes), gyms, and other sight seeing sites for space tourists. The big guns should get into the act with ISRO. Regards, Rony.

Hi, I have a MSI KM400 motherboard with a VIA KM400 on borad display adapter. The problem is that I can not get the 3-D support working on it. Also the video quality is poor (It is giving me 1024x768 at 16bit). I have googled, been to lot of mailing lists.. all in vain. Even the driver provided by via at http://viaarena.com does not help. I am currently using SuSE 9.1 Pro but have tried it on FC2 as well as Mandrake 10. Does any one else have the same config and has been able to get video working? Please help. TIA.
