What's the difference between /var/log/mail.log and /var/log/mail.info? I was able to kill logging of Postfix to mail.log, but mail.info continues. These two logs appear to be the same, at least in the past. Why is that? (let the ridicule begin.) I just added a routine to the logrotate.conf fil

My own fault. I forgot to set the "skip-networking" back in my.cnf last week when I was exploring better security so when mysql restarted this morning after the upgrade, the new (wrong) parameter took effect. On Thursday, Apr 15, 2004, at 11:39 America/Chicago, Mark Gillingham wrote:

I suppose the answer to my question is obvious, but I don't see it. I have two nearly identical Woody servers set up for LAMP on a private network. I want to access MySQL on server2 (192.168.1.4) from server1 (192.168.1.3). The user and host settings for MySQL work from either server as long as

When I issue a setserial or statserial command on ttyS0 or ttyS1, both internal ports, the commands hang and I just ^C out. The commands on ttyS2 and ttyS3 behave normally. Since I mostly ignore the internal serial ports when I installed, I bet I missed something. Something might be amiss in BI
