I would try the DNAT/SNAT iptables targets, along the lines of: iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -d 195.198.111.x \ -j DNAT --to-destination 65.114.4.69 iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -d 65.114.4.69 \ -j SNAT --to-source <your external IP address on this machine> The second line makes the real server send it's replies through the same path (otherwise it will reply directly to the client) You have to enable/allow forwarding for everything to work. hth, /Andy

Integrated bluetooth on Toshiba laptop wont work
by Zlatko 02 May '08

02 May '08

Hello to everybody, and greetings from Croatia (Europe)... I need help... Model of laptop: Toshiba Satellite P200-10C My integrated bluetooth wont work, unless I do the following: 1. I start laptop with Windows Vista 2. I restart from Vista to Fedora Each time I do this, bluetooth works fine. But, if I turn off computer, and start it again directly to Fedora, bluetooth wont work, and system wont recognize any bluetooth device. I have described this problem on Fedora forum, also, but nobody answered my question so far, even I have posted that post month ago. Here is the link to that post: http://forums.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=172988 If anybody knows how to handle this problem, I'll be very appreciated... Also, my combination of pressing Fn + (F1-F9) wont work either... Thanks

USB error #62
by Ric Moore 29 Apr '08

29 Apr '08

During boot, I keep getting this error message: "USB 1-2: device not accepting address 2, error -62" Since I'm having problems getting my LG phone to connect via USB cable, and it occupies a zone 2 address, is this part of the problem??

by Zoltan Kota 29 Apr '08

Hi, I have just got a Palm Z22. I would like to use it with jpilot under F8 with the latest updates. I set the device to 'usb:' in jpilot. It seems to work as root but not with a normal user! Some permissions? What should I check? Thanks. Zoltan

apache - bad request
by Pedro Freire 26 Apr '08

26 Apr '08

Hi list, don't know if this was already answered. If so ... sorry I installed Fedora 8 with apache running. What is happening is that I can access the Apache Fedora test page if I use "localhost" as the address, BUT if I use 127.0.0.1 (or it's LAN IP) I receive a Bad Request "Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand." Any idea why ? This happens right after installation, without changing any config file.

Fedora 8: X/Nautilus eating CPU
by wwp 19 Apr '08

19 Apr '08

Hello all, now that my Fedora 8 is fully set up, I notice periodical short hangs of the Desktop, making its use quite uncomfortable. `top` tells me that the X and Nautilus processes are eating up to 30% of CPU every 15-20sec approximately (I can hear some disk activity as well). Sensors applets are configured to poll on a longer period basis so it's probably not them. No cron activity has been set. Anyway, I was running the same applets with my Fedora Core 5 and GNOME and never encountered such behaviour before. For the record, nautilus-action is installed and there are few mounts (USB disks) visible onto the Desktop. I've tried closing all apps (but GNOME Desktop) and this still happens. Anybody has this too? Or any hint? Regards, -- wwp

So how do we > improve by two decades of quality in this "war" against spam? ---- greylisting is just one of a lot of tools available to the mail server administrator - all of them are calibrated to minimize the junk mail delivered to the end users and of course minimizing delivery failures and false positive scoring by various mechanisms. End users of course are the ones ultimately affected and you seemingly want to open an end user discussion about a server level technology...please don't as it won't provide clarity to anyone. If you are losing e-mails, evaluate the filtering system that you use at end user level and discuss the methodologies employed by your mail provider with them. Craig

CORBA errors on GNOME login
by Matthew Saltzman 11 Apr '08

11 Apr '08

Running GNOME in fully updated F8 on a dual-core x86_64. When I log in, several apps or applets produce pop-up error boxes with the following text: An error occurred while loading or saving configuration information for <applet>. Some of your configuration settings may not work properly. Clicking the "details" button produces one to several occurrences of the message: Adding client to server's list failed, CORBA error: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0 This started a while back, and it would occur on the first login after boot, but subsequent logins would work fine. More recently, it's started happening on every login. The applets that produce the error vary, but they include - Power Manager - gnome-terminal - Evolution's calendar/alarm app - nm-applet and others. Anybody have a clue what's going on? Which component should I BZ? TIA. -- Matthew Saltzman Clemson University Math Sciences mjs AT clemson DOT edu http://www.math.clemson.edu/~mjs
