ppp connection
by Doug Tulloch 05 May '00

05 May '00

Been tied up with other stuff until now but belated thanks to all concerned with ALUG6. Special thanks to the guys who helped me with various minor problems - didn't get your names I'm afraid. Unfortunately...... Regarding the problem with using ppp as non-root, I can now connect to the net as both root and non-root but find that Netscape and Lynx behave as if there was no connection. This happens both non root and root, it was OK as root before. It's probably something pretty obvious but I can't puzzle it out. Any ideas? Please? -- Doug Tulloch [ This email came to you via the Anglian Linux User Group list ] [ If you only wish to recieve event announcements, email the ] [ SUBJECTs of "unsubscribe alug" and "subscribe alug-announce" ] [ to listserver(a)stu.uea.ac.uk -- We do need your support, tho' ]

Debian Queries
by Terry Filby 01 May '00

What is the info for configuring sound in Debian please? I have a book that I got with Caldera OpenLinux 2.2 - 'Sams Teach Yoursel Linux in 24 hours' (no chance!) that mentions 'insmod' but Debian doesn't approve! What is the right way to configure sound in Debian? Also, with printing, it's configured with A4 size paper, mine is 8 1/2" x 11" tractor paper - where do I alter the size? Thanks in anticipation! All the Best Terry [ This email came to you via the Anglian Linux User Group list ] [ If you only wish to recieve event announcements, email the ] [ SUBJECTs of "unsubscribe alug" and "subscribe alug-announce" ] [ to listserver(a)stu.uea.ac.uk -- We do need your support, tho' ]

[Fwd: Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender]

Does anybody else have problems with receiving mail from dermot(a)higrade.botwritghts.farm? I don't think I've ever received a mail from him. I use fetchmail to download mail from several places, which then delivers to my linux box. This works OK, except for sending domains that don't exist. If the person who sent this could please FIX their email program so that it has their correct email address, it would be much appreciated.
