Hello,
I am using RH 5.1.
I am trying to set up a Linux server to get my
E-mail once every day and to use it for multiple Windows computers to surf the
Internet at the same time.
I installed squid.When I restart the Linux server
squid is started.
The two problems I have are as
follows.
Problem 1
Every time one of the windows 98 computers is
booted up,the server start dialing via the modem to the outside world.Diald is
started and it tries to make a connection to the outsideworld.
Problem 2
The server does not get the mail automaticly.I
checked the Crontab file.This is as folows.
SHELL=/bin/bash
PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
MAILTO=jan
# run-parts
# 01 * * * * root run-parts
/etc/cron.hourly
# 02 4 * * * root run-parts
/etc/cron.daily
# 22 4 * * 0 root run-parts
/etc/cron.weekly
# 42 4 1 * * root run-parts
/etc/cron.monthly
0
18 *
* *
/home/jan/domail verbose
# 0
6 *
* *
/bin/df
# 2
6 *
* *
/bin/ps aux
# */10
* *
* *
/home/jan/doclock
If I do the /home/jan/domail command
from the
[root@server / ] line it works.The modem starts
dialing and the Linuxserver gets the mail.
After that I start my Windows computer and start
Outlook Express and the server sends the mail to the Windows
computer.
Any suggestions would be very much
appreciated,
Thanks
Jan de Kok.
