problems with mail-filtering/forwarding

Hello, I don't seem to be able to get either filter or sortmail working with postfix, if that could cause problems. But I think the problem is in the permissions: both would deliver mail only to files, owned by nobody:nogroup. Isn't this silly? filter won't even read the configuration unless I put

mkisofs truncates filenames -- alternative?

reading the man pages, mkisofs/mkhybrid truncates filenames to 8 characters plus a 3-ch extension. this is really obnoxious ... is there a way to make iso images to burn to cd that aren't truncated, or is there a better way to transfer many files to one CD? thanks, -- .~. nori @ sccs

Unofficial Debian package management

I make use of software that, for one reason or another, is not included in Debian proper, like Mplayer, Mjpegtools, etc. I want to avoid, for now, the complexities of creating my own .deb packages, so I compile from the original sources and then use the excelent, simple stow technique to make the
