    Using Perl to invoke sendmail

    Don't forget to add a newline to each print to the process filehandle.<br> <br> So...<br> <br> open (MAIL, "¦/usr/lib/sendmail -t");<br> print MAIL "To: user\@domain.com\n";<br> print MAIL "From: another.user\@domain.com\n";<br> print MAIL "Subject: Test Message\n";<br> print MAIL "This is the...

    mounting a floppy anyone???

    *Could* be something like /dev/fd0135ds18. /dev/fd0 is more Linux than Unix. Unix tends to want to know more about the floppy.

    X.400 connector between two Exchange sites

    If you're using pure X400 then NT trust doesn't play a part.<br> Your connector will be using the RFC1006 stack (OSI over TCP/IP).<br> Check MTA names, password (X400), dialogue mode and X400 conformance. Start with a 1984 connection. The '88 RTSE seems a little unreliable. If you're using the...

    Hierarchical Menus

    You can also use javascript/php. The apache-php web page explains how to do this. http://www.php.net. Have a look at the source.

    Need help coding

    Which CGI language do you plan to use?<br> Which platform/OS?<br> <br> If you're planning on perl then get familiar with the CGI library. <br> <br> When you've decided, I don't mind helping out.

    Masquerading internal to external network

    1. Use a smart host (near the top of sendmail.cf. DS as I remember).<br> 2. I think virtusertable would do it. In the past I've hacked the sendmail.cf rulesets directly (older, HP distributed versions - OpenMail seems to prefer these flavours) . Hacking the cf file seems to be frowned on though...

    How to invoke sendmail with perl

    Where's the rest of the script?<br> <br> There must be some kind of web page for the browser and hence the script to work. A simple header would do (print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";).<br> When piping to sendmail, there must be a newline after each header field to tell sendmail it's time to...

    Inodes vs Blocks

    inodes (identification nodes) are a method by which the filesystem keeps tabs on blocks and their content. In effect, they are entities of a table that contains a list of filenames and their associated starting block location. <br> <br> Inodes are more important then, than blocks as if you run...

    Dialog process running up CPU

    The swap limit wasn't present with RH4.2 but then appeared at 5.n + . Nice to see large swaps are back :-)

    Red Hat Linux Network Problem

    If there was a DNS issue here then the ping would never work.<br> <br> I would imagine that problem would lie with either subnetting or gateway addresses.

    386 PS/2

    Forget X on a 386. I would say that minumum for X is 486SX (done it on a 486SX33, 512K VGA 8Mb Ram).<br> <br> I have managed slakware (older distribution) on a 4Mb 40MbHD 386SX16. No fancy stuff. just enough to get it to boot and use as a terminal. If you plan on trying with a machine with less...

    trouble with tar

    Is that 'f' (this file) flag correct? In the above example you show a device as a file.<br> <br> I've not used tape on Linux but with SCO, you link the tape device to the default tar device and extract with tar -xv.<br> <br> Hope this helps (and is relevent :)

    Any recommendations for dynamic database publishing under Linux?

    I'd favour MySQL www.mysql.com, with perl and perl DBI::msql modules.
