View 6 RepliesI wanted to know how can I change the name that appears in the upper right corner on the top bar. I set it up in the first install with my dad's name, but now I'm using the laptop so I want it to display my name. I managed to delete his profile and make a new one with my name, but the top bar still displays his name.
I want to change it from Guy (my dad) to Mike (yours truly)
I'm running Ubuntu 9.04.
How can i replace ubuntu logo,(white logo with black background) which comes very first while booting (it also comes while shuting down) in ubuntu 9.10. I am able to replace other images, which comes after this image. I have done it by replaceing my images with the images present in /usr/share/images/xflash.But it is not possible to replace the mentioned image by this way. Where the above mentioned image (white with black bg) will be stored?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently removed Winblows Vista from my laptop and replaced it with Kubuntu 10.10 (I left the recovery partition on there, just in case). When I turn on the computer, the GRUB menu appears, I press enter, then a little flashing underscore appears on the screen in the top left hand corner. After a few seconds, the Kubuntu logo appears and I can log in.But yesterday I replace Kubuntu with Ubuntu 10.10. The Boot process is the same, but the little flashing underscore in the top left hand corner flashes for about 10 seconds longer then Kubuntu 10.10 did, and then a few paragraphs of text appears for a few seconds, then I am logged in automatically.Is this "unusual" boot process anything to worry about, or am I just being a noob.

I am trying to install Sun JDK, to test the file i am trying to extract the RPM using following command:
$ . ./jdk-6u10-linux-i586-rpm.bin -x
I always get this response :- Checksumming...the download file appears to be corrupted.What I've tried so far :-
- Centos 4.5
- Downloading 6u10 & "bin" only versions of sdk :-
jdk-6u10-linux-i586.bin
jdk-6u10-linux-i586-rpm.bin
jdk-6u11-linux-i586.bin

Session management with gnome-session-properties and GDM appears to be broken in CentOS 5.3 and 5.2. I can't comment on earlier versions.Activating "Automatically save changes to session" does work--for example, on the next login, the terminals that were open at the last logout are reopened.
But if "Automatically save changes to session" is not selected, according to help,"when you end your session the Logout Confirmation dialog displays a Save current setup option."This does not happen. No "Save current setup" is offered, regardless of whether or not "Ask on logout" is selected.
Also according to help, if one has added sessions with gnome-session-properties, then
when one logs in "on GDM, you choose a session. When you choose a session, you can
select which of the multiple sessions to use."This does not happen. No matter how many sessions one may have added with gnome-session-properties, none of them appears in the list of sessions that GDM presents.
So it appears that only a small fraction of session management functionality works in
CentOS 5.3 and 5.2.
I have a fairly simple iSCSI setup using two devices, but they have swapped names on different machines. running CentOs 5.3 ia64, and using iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.868-0.18.el5
vm1:
[root@vm1 ~]# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/xvda: 4194 MB, 4194304000 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 509 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
[Code].....
Any way to get iSCSI to mount the devices as consistent device names ?

I am currently using a shell script to run a java app which performs some integration logic. The shell then continues to compile a file with all stats resulting from the java app. I then send this compiled stats file to several emails. The email is from 'root'. Is there anyway to change this without having to create a new user and running this app as them instead.

Is there anything else I need to do, or is it just a case of changing the mail client from expecting POP3 to expecting IMAP?
I'm trying to setup a couple POP accounts in CentOS. I started doing a tutorial that had me install dovecot, and now I have dovecot running but I can't connect at all.Does anyone know of a simple way to get email up and running? It seems like it should be easier than the 14 step tutorials I was finding on Google.Also, should I leave dovecot or try and remove it?

I am trying to use two CentOS 5.5 boxes to serve up email. I wish to loadbalance HTTP, IMAP, POP3, and SMTP between the two servers. The servers are not in a cluster (the email software does not require it). What filesystem could be used to distribute/replicate the files between the two servers? I have tried NFS, GFS, and GlusterFS. All of which work but result in a latency that is unacceptable to the end users (webmail clients).
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have postfix sort of working correctly. postfix can send email to the internet but it doesn't want to send email to my local exchange server. What I need is for postfix to send emails directed to @xyz.com to my exchange server instead of itself.
My setup
mail.xyz.com - exchange 2003 server
www.xyz.com - centos 5.3 server with postfix
www.xyz.com can send emails to my hotmail.com account so that part works correctly. www.xyz.com can't send email to username@xyz.com. postfix seems to be delivering the email to itself and not the exchange server.
How can I tell postfix to send the @xyz.com emails to my exchange server?
Here is a sample of my /var/log/maillog

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm setting up an email server for a small office and need a few specific features. I was hoping that someone might give me a few recommendations to meet the following criteria:
IMAP support anti-spam some sort of webmail client - doesn't have to be fancy, but it needs a search function graphical administration panel The last one is so that other people in the office, who aren't necessarily familiar with linux, can do some basic administration. Adding mail boxes, etc.
I've seen the guide for Postfix/Dovecot. That's great but doesn't cover everything that I need. I've also seen Zimbra, which... Well I don't know, that may work, but the open source version has some features removed and that makes me leery. Have people had good experiences with open-source Zimbra? Is it sufficiently feature-complete?
Edit: Well, looks like I just needed to do a little more searching. This seems to cover most everything:[URL]... I'd still like to hear what people have to say about Zimbra though.
