I hope this is the right place to post this.Sorry if it isn't Just some stupid newbie questions: 1) I have an alias made in my .profile alias vi='/usr/local/bin/vim' but the alias is not made when i log in X. If a log in console or using ssh from a remote host the alias is made but when i log in x it is not. Anybody know why? As shell i use bash.
2)In /etc/syslogd.conf i have comented the line #*.err;kern.debug;auth.notice;mail.crit /dev/console so that i wouldn't get any logs on my first console. But there are some logs that get printed on the first console. They're printed in bright white :) and they appear for example when someone tries to scan for opened ports on my computer. My question is who makes these logs? 3)Why does pine say: [Folder vulnerable - directory /var/mail must have 1777 protection] these are the rights on /var/mail/taipan where taipan is my user: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mail]# ls -l /var/mail/taipan -rw------- 1 taipan wheel 11089 Apr 9 11:08 /var/mail/taipan and alsoe the rights on /var/mail: drwxrwxr-x 2 root mail 512 Apr 9 11:07 mail That's about it for now.
