Hi,
I am a student of the MCA program from VJTI and we, the students, plan to start a unofficial standalone MCA site. The site would reflect the current activities and seminars happening in our course. The site would be hit by the students of the MCA program, students seeking admissions in VJTI, the companies coming in for recruitment and any other person interested in knowing more about our activities.
We therefore require some server space, 5 MB to start with, to host static HTML pages. Anyone willing to offer space please contact me personally off the list.
It's high time we update the site developed by Mr. Philip Tellis ages ago.
Thanking You,
-- Goldwyn :o)

can you tell me more about MX please
MX (aka Mail eXchanger) records are DNS records that specify where mail for a domain should go. See th 4th Edition of DNS and Bind for details (ORA). Then get your ISP to setup a proper public static IP for you, with reverse DNS, and get them to delegate the forward authority to you(if possible).
Setup the DNS first and then all the rest should work automagically.

Hi
I am getting this messg. when i open host file ATTENTION Found a swap file by the name "/etc/.hosts.swp" dated: Fri Apr 20 14:41:42 2001 owned by: root file name: /etc/hosts host name: linux user name: root process ID: 484 While opening file "/etc/hosts" dated: Thu Mar 7 11:37:58 2002
CAN I DELETE .hosts.swp file & How ...?
You had an open vi(m) session when you tried to openb this file. If there is no vi(m) session holding this file open, rm -f /etc/.hosts.swp will fix the warning.

Unix is still used because of two reasons.
- Legacy apps that haven't been ported
What are legacy apps? Can you elaborate please.
Older application binaries compiled specifically for a specific OS. Also see: MS Office on a Linux box ;).

Hi!,
I am trying to setup rsh and rsync for remote backup but I m not able to set rsh which from various sources I have came to know that there is one file called .rhosts
s/rsh/ssh/ man ssh-keygen and man ssh (and sshd)
where is it ?? in redhat 7.1 is there some global file or some user specific file
.rhosts would be in the users home directory. Trust me, you don't want to use this. Use ssh wth key based authentication and non root accounts.
and man ssh-agent too, whilke you are at it.

Well, you can write a script as simple as this:
#!/bin/sh mv $1 $HOME/.trash
Or you can go for something better. I don't know if you can simply use the alias command.
