Sending mail using smtp commands via telnet
by Rob Becker 01 Aug '05

01 Aug '05

I'm working on testing that mail is delivered properly from outside our network, through our various virus and spam filters and to the appropriate email server. I would like to telnet into one of our mail gateways and send a message from there destined to a new internal server. I know how to telnet into the mail server, but I'm not finding the appropriate commands to actually send a message once I'm connected. Can anyone point me in the right direction. My googling skills have failed me on this one since I can't seem to hit the magic phrase necessary to find a resource on this topic. Any help, pointers, references greatly appreciate. Thanks. Rob

And why are you using telnet instead of ssh?

scanners
by Jack 31 Jul '05

Greetings Luggites, I have recently acquired a collection of pictures and negatives. Some are 70+ years old. I'm looking to scan in the entire collection and store on cd/dvd. The pictures will all fit on a normal flatbed. However the negatives are almost every shape and size other than 35mm. I'm in the process of searching for info now, but maybe someone here can guide me in the right direction. Does there exist a scanner that will run under Linux than can scan negatives other than 35mm? Also what would be the least damaging scanner? THese negatives and pictures have sentimental value. Thanks, Brian __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?

job hunters
by Daniel Siemens 30 Jul '05

30 Jul '05

Please email me your resumes over to Dan_Siemens(a)ariusa.com. I have a position opening up for a Linux ninja in the near future. The position involves what should be a lot of time on the road doing installations of game systems and supporting of Linux servers. Estimate that travel stints could go out for 3 weeks straight at times for international installs. Most trips out should be less than a week. Must not have criminal record, i.e. the international trips and crossing borders means that you don't want to be refused entry into foreign countries for a DUI or Drug charge. The required skills will be general knowledge of Linux, TCP/IP switches, routers and wireless products and infrastructure in general. Must know PC hardware, some bash and perl would be a plus. FYI Work is in the eatertainment industry which means a lot of support occurs Friday night, Saturday and Sunday. I hope this did not violate any posting rules. Thanks.

Can you do apt for rpm? Then apt-get install inkscape. -----Original Message----- From: kclug-bounces(a)kclug.org [mailto:kclug-bounces@kclug.org] On Behalf Of lowell Sent: Thursday, July 28, 2005 8:55 PM To: kclug(a)kclug.org Subject: gtk 2.4.0 Folks: I'd like to try Inkscape (oss version if Illustrator) on my RedHat 9 machine, but the rpm bails out with "Need gtk 2"; I wonder how many things will break if I try to install gtk2 ( I also wonder how many things will have to go on before the tool kit will install. Does anybody have experience with this particular upgrade; I'm sure many have been through rpm hell of one sort or another... _______________________________________________ Kclug mailing list Kclug(a)kclug.org http://kclug.org/mailman/listinfo/kclug

Postfix config doubts
by Kumarasamy Mani 29 Jul '05

29 Jul '05

Hi all, I currently have configured a RedHat Linux box with postfix,courier-imap and mysql to host virtual email accounts. Can any one let me know how do I setup 'Quota' limit for postfix virtual users. Currently i have two options, either we can use Maildrop, to implement this, or we can use VDA. I want to know if there is anyother option to achive the 'Per User Quota' in the above combination. Note: All virtual users are under one uid and gid. Thanks in advance Kumarasamy Mani __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com

Re: Anyone done a live video broadcast thru Linux?
by David Spake 24 Jul '05

24 Jul '05

Chris, Thanks for the suggestion. I've looked hard at Helix and Darwin Streaming Server, but am hesitant to bite just yet. I like StreamStudio, but it appears to be a dead project, and I may have to default back to Darwin or Helix. My main concern lies in that so many of the streaming solutions assume you are doing a true capture thru a capture card, or file serving a feed. I'm trying to do something different in that I'm focusing on a live feed, with as little lag as possible. The live connection puts in a set of issues that I just don't see addressed that often. From my reading, I'm hoping to use a camcorder with a Firewire (IEEE 1394) connection to do the heavy encoding lifting. One of my real questions is how much processor load will I realize by converting from the DV combined audio/video format to something like quicktime, thedora, real, whatever. Will having a capture card with embedded decode on it help? If so, how much? I am hoping that the CPU hit will be less for a conversion than a true encoding, but it's hard to say. The reason I want to lean so much on the dv/1394 solution is that it's a lot easier to find camcorders to borrow than dig up four capable encode/decode capture cards. But those two links I've already bookmarked after browsing thru and will read them in much better detail. I have no doubt the forums will provide me a wealth of information, and I can't thank you enough for the leads. It seems almost anymore that even as good as the search engines are, a lot of the deep forums aren't indexed anymore. Whether or not it's from neglect by the search engines, or that the forum owners don't want the deep linking I don't know. At the end of the day I'd love to use a more well known, possibly stabler solution than an unknown one (StreamStudio), and Darwin Streaming Server has a lot of attention and admiration. I appreciate the information, and the links, and wish you the best of luck.
