Installing the rpm from apt's cache works fine.
Is there any way I can verify my binaries against the installed rpms? I
had a booting problem with the / on raid5, but I doubt that'll be the cause.

I agree. Implementing LDAP is by far a better solution. In fact, I currently
use LDAP at my end to populate my access file through an hourly cronjob.
This is by design. I chose not to configure my MTA to query my LDAP server
for each inbound e-mail. It queries a local database which contains the same
information.
FWIW: I posted the access table example above for the benefit of the OP to
answer his question. Yes, what I showed is the "hardway" (as noted in a
previous reply), but my goal was to give him a basic example of what will be
required to configure sendmail to reject unknown recipients without issuing
a bounce (hopefully in a test environment). How the OP ultimately chooses to
implement this in the future will be based on his current infrastructure and
requirements - which he has not specified. Hopefully, he can implement an
LDAP solution. If not...

gimp-print-4.2.7 in development
by Alexander Volovics
Anybody tried gimp-print-4.2.7-1 in development yet?
gimp-print-4.2.7 should contain drivers for the Epson Stylus Photo R200/R300
printers, judging by the following text:
The Epson Stylus Photo R200/R210 and R300/R310 printers, and the
RX500 and RX600 multi-function devices, are now supported. These
printers have been properly tuned and are fully functional
(except for direct printing to CD's).
However after installing gimp-print-4.2.7-1, gimp-print-utils-4.2.7-1,
gimp-print-plugin-4.2.7-1, gimp-print-cups-4.2.7-1 under Fedora Core 2
with all the latest updates I cannot configure my Epson Stylus Photo R200
with 'system-config-printer' as a 'locally-connected' printer (/dev/usb/lp0).
The printer is not listed among the Epson printers.
There does seem to be some sort of PPD file available judging by
/usr/share/cups/model/uk/escp2-r200.ppd.gz.
Am I misunderstanding things completely or is gimp-print-4.2.7-1.i386.rpm
not yet completely kosher.

vpnc & X Apps
by Paul R. Ganci
I am using VPNC to connect to my employer's network of SUN solaris
systems. I can login into the Sun workstation on my desk at work with no
problems. However if I try to open an X application on my home system
from my workstation I keep getting:
Error: Can't open display: vpn226.myworkdomain.com:0.0
DNS is working properly since vpn226.myworkdomain.com resolves to
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx which also happens to be the IP address assigned to
device tun. The solaris box on my desk is using the csh shell so on my
workstation I did:
setenv DISPLAY vpn226.myworkdomain.com:0.0
and on my home PC:
xhost xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Clearly I am missing something. Do I have to open something up on my
firewall in addition to the usual VPN ports? I need to be able to open
some X apps on my home PC for it to be of use. Any help is, of course,
greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Jake,
With any solution, there are always the pros/cons. You've just discovered
the con. But stopping the dictionary attacks far outwighed having to
maintain a list of valid users in my access file. In fact, that's why I
developed the shell script to automate the task of keeping sendmail (now
postfix) in sync with my exchange server. You might have to develop your own
methodology if you decide to implement my solution.
FWIW: I host three domains at this end. I have to add each "valid" recipient
(per domain)to the access file. i.e.
mydomain1.com REJECT
scowles(a)mydomain1.com OK
mydomain2.com REJECT
scowles(a)mydomain2.com OK
Why? If I remember sendmail correctly - by using the access file test in the
manner I described, you are testing accepting/rejecting the inbound e-mail
after the "rcpt to", but "prior" to the inbound e-mail being submitted to
the designated mailer queue. i.e. procmail or relay (in my case). So, in the
case of local delivery, procmail does not ever get called. So it doesn't
have a chance to issue an "Unknown User" back to sendmail for the bounce
message. Which is a good thing for dictionary type of attacks.
Finally, I hope you're not trying to implement such a drastic change to
sendmail on a production server. Setup a test server. That's what I did. The
thought of adding a REJECT for mydomain.com scared the hell out of me at
first.
Again, you milage may vary based on your requirements on how sendmail must
be configured at your end.

If you are trying to install GCC, I believe that
# yum install gcc*
will do the job for you. Or install the GCC packages from the Fedora CD's.
Fedora has GCC, but you might not have it depending on how you installed
your system.
If you are trying to install Apache, you can also install it from the
recently released package rather than building from source. But if you
specifically want to build Apache from source, you can. Remember to install
the kernel-source package to make this go.

Quoted the entire digest, 'e did.
Please edit your responses. It's confusing to the rest of us to have every

In general, don't just reply and include the whole chain of prior messages in

Browsing Windows Shares
by Paul Vandenberg
HI,
I can't seem to see the Windows shares on my wife's computer. With
Fedora Core 1, I just typed smb:/// in the location field of Nautilus
and they appeared. Now, I get nothing. I tried SuSE 9.1 and it worked
no problem. Any ideas?
Thanks....Paul
