I haven't found any, but there are some good web-based programs around if you have a browser. Come to think of it, you could probably use Lynx (a text-only web browser) to access one of those. Frank --On Saturday, January 16, 1999, 6:43 AM + Pere Camps <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >

That message is generated by an IMAP mail server. It lets the IMAP server keep track of which messages are already read (an IMAP mail server lets you access your mail from more than place keeping all the folders, read mail, etc. on the server. Check www.imap.org for features). The IMAP-aware ver

One possibility is that the client is not named what you think. Try to telnet from the client to the NFS server and do a 'who' and see what it thinks the clients hostname is. You are exporting to myclientname but the server may be seeing it as myclientname.domain.nam and that won't match causing t

I just did that to myself last night (modified my Xsession to set -bpp 24 on a server that didn't support it for my sytem, that's what I get for not reading the documentation). If you're on a network, telnet into the linux box (you have to log in first as someone other than root and then su to roo

1998-12-17 Thread Frank Smith
Having an xterm with widely-spaced fonts is usually an indication that you are trying to use a proportional font instead of a fixed-width font. This can confuse the X server if it can't handle proportional fonts or the fon't doesn't have the width information necessary. I don't think most xterms c

How are you connecting? Not all hardware implements Stac compression the same. For example, various Zyxel and Netgear ISDN routers would cause problems such as yours when making a PPP connection to an Ascend Max, unless compression was disabled. Try diabling compression in your PPP settings and

All you may need is to set an environment variable. For sh and bash, export DISPLAY=":0.0" for csh setenv DISPLAY :0.0 That tells it which display (screen) to open the xconfig window on. This is assuming you already have Xwindows up and running, otherwise you can't use xonfig. Frank --On Sunday,
