I am using Samba for a file server and get a lag when accessing files across the network, I assume it is due to inactivity, because the first file I access takes the longest to access, and then other files I access immediatly after are much faster. If I do not access any files for a while I get the problem again. It all works well, but I would really like to get rid of this Lag when opening a

Hi, I've just noticed something strange in dovecot 0.99.10.5. I created some IMAP folders from the command line (mkdir .INBOX.Folder1) as a different user to the owner of the mailbox. Obviously when I tried to view them via IMAP I got an error message, but the message to the client was "internal error[date time]" where date and time appeared to be the current date and time. Is

Hello. Is it possible to create different routing policies for "virtual" (as opposed to a real NIC) interfaces? I mean: be able to set up different rules for each of the "dummy0", "dummy1" interfaces, and/or aliases to the "lo" interface like "lo:0", "lo:1", etc. [For example, I assigned a zone (called "priv") to a subnet

Hi everyone, this is my first post on this mailing list. I recently installed postfix+dovecot+fetchmail on OpenBSD for my dad's office. (dovecot is setup as an imap server using mbox). Everything worked flawlessly...until now. I don't know why, but now some emails seem to de-double themselves. For exemple, yesterday morning I printed out all the emails. To my surprise 30

Hi, I have a question about how to implement a mail system, but I don't know where to ask. Until now, I have a mail system who receive mail by postfix and transport it through procmail to the /var/spool/mail/username mailbox. From here it is retrieved through dovecot (POP3). Now I have two more users, I want to implement a IMAP server, and also provide a webmail (squirrelmail)

Is there a procedure for installing and configuring SAMBA 3.0 for a Windows 2000 server so as to share files from the Windows 2000 server for Sun Solaris 8 workstations? Thanks, Larry

Hi folks. I just converted my site from UW+mbox to dovecot+maildir (stable-test59, 2005/02/25). For the most part, everything is great. The server seems faster and less memory intense than the UW server (this part has made me very happy). And it's definitely more user friendly to me than Courier. There is one thing however... A few of my users are using the web based mail reader

Hi I?m having difficulty configuring Samba running on FreeBSD. Samba version is 2.2.8a. The scenario is that we have an NT4 domain and I am looking to migrate the printers onto Samba. All of the printers are connected via print servers, mainly HP JetDirect. As far as security is concerned I am happy for guest/anonymous logon as the server will only be used for printing but I have set security to

Believe me: Read the FAQ Checked over and over This might be toooooo stupid to be documented. Please bear with me. Any help ? Situation: single card standalone "firewall" (used like a "personal firewall"). Have sshd running on the FW. Want the sshd daemon to be accessible only from 2 LANs: 1) My other home LAN machine 2) IBM intranet machines (9.0.0.0) Whatever I have

I want to run dhcp and shorewall on the same computer.It is my gateway and that computer doing NAT for my network.How can I set up shorewall to let only users that get theire static ip address via dhcp, not to let users that had static address.

It is with regret that I announce that Shorewall development and support is officially ended. Sean''s post has finally driven it home to me that in the long term, trying to support a project like Shorewall is impossible for a person of my personality and age. Sean -- please believe that this isn''t about you or your post -- your post was just the proverbial straw on this old
