| 220186 | 2004-03-08 23:47:00 | Of course, this comes back to the old rule: "Look at the log files". I bet Kerio keeps a log file of everything which is being rejected. The Linux /usr/log/messages file is invaluable, too, when dealing with "hardware" problems. I put an alias definition (alias messages='tail -20 /usr/log/messages) in one of the .bash files of my root account on all machines. I've even changed the ownership of the messages file so I can read it from user account too. |

By using IPX instead of Netbeui, not only can the different Windows flavours see each other, but they can now access the Xandros computer which they couldnt under Netbeui. So it is all working as it should do, oh joy :) This is because IPX is supported by Linux. |

| 220189 | 2004-03-10 08:10:00 | Hi Terry, Just in case you were still looking for something to view e-mail on the server I thought I would suggest looking at Kshowmail. It may not do everything that you are hoping though, but it does permit viewing and deleting from the server. This is really dependant on you using the KDE desktop rather than Gnome. HTH |

| 220190 | 2004-03-11 08:27:00 | Thanks for that information Gorela, I'll have a look at that, it sounds good on the SourceForge page. Im trying KDE Mail at the moment. A few further steps forward: The Xandros Kopete Instant Messenger works a treat. It can be configured to emulate many popular programs, like Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, ICQ etc. I configured mine for MSN , just entered my hotmail address and password, and up popped my contacts, and it works just fine. Streaming audio can be encoded on the fly into MP3 using the built in XMMS MP3 player. Xandros has Crossover for installing and running Windows programs, Though I found it wouldnt completely uninstall Real Producer that I had installed and played with. It left the link to it behind in the Launch/Windows Applications tab. |

| 220191 | 2004-03-11 08:32:00 | Oh yes. I also moved over 5GB of music files from a FAT32 partition on my XP drive to a FAT32 partition on the Linux drive, and that is accessible from Xandros and can be played with either Linux real player, or XMMS MP3 player according to file type. | Terry Porritt (14) | ||
| 220192 | 2004-03-11 10:09:00 | Terry> Kopete has been part of kdenetwork since 3.2.0 iirc, possibly 3.1.5. And I dont mean to bust the bubble, but I can play MP3's in noatun, kaboodle, xmms, beep-media-player, xine, kmplayer, mpg123, madplay... And Im sure there's others ;-) aMSN is quite good too (Version 0.90 is a major step up from 0.83). Does Xandros include aMSN? Chill. |
