The write command just isn't working for me at all. Am I right in thinking it can even do this function? I am using:
Code:

It keeps telling me

View 2 Replies View Relatedafter upgrading to 11.04, natty, I have a problem with rsyslogd.
In previous releases I went to:
/etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf
and uncommented the lines under comment:
# I like to have messages displayed on the console, but only on a virtual
# console I usually leave idle.
This was redirecting the log messages to a console I could get to via Ctrl-Alt-Fwhatever.
In natty, this no longer works. When I switch to the relevant console I get a blank screen with a blinking cursor.
The file /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf still exists. A new arrival is also 50-default.conf.ucf-dist which, as far as I can tell is a clone and which I have also modified like 50-default.conf.
The file /etc/rsyslog.conf (configuration file for rsyslogd) exists and its last line reads:
$IncludeConfig /etc/rsyslog.d/*.conf
which presumably should force rsyslogd to read 50-default.conf at startup.
Looking at the running processes I can see that rsyslogd runs.
Can someone explain to me, or if it's even possible, for a Windoz computer to send a message to Linux (or vice versa) and have the receiver act on that message? For example. I have a DOS program running on a win computer that monitors some hardware connected to the parallel port, and heyu home automation running on the Linux. I would like heyu to turn on a light triggered by an event on win.
Can I send a message, via the OS, from win and run a script on Linux? Can I do that from Linux to Win? Once upon a time there was a messaging system called WinPop (circa Win3.1, and Win95) I assume the functionality still exists even if those archaic programs don't. Currently, I make Windoz create a file on Linux, then the Linux box checks for that file once a minute using cron. This works, but I would prefer a cleaner solution.
I had been using Evolution with no issues though until I installed Ubuntu 10.04 after which I could no longer send outgoing messages. I use a hotmail live account with Evolution. I have also just installed Evolution 2.30 from 2.28 to see if that would solve the issue, but it did not.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIt worked for almost a year with no problems. I suspect a recent update changed something.
Hotmail is my mail service. I've read instructions on how to set up Evolution. I've followed them with no change in results.
I've tried smtp.live.com:587. It was originally set as just smtp.live.com.
SSL is the way it is set but i've tried TLS too. I've seen both suggested.
The authentication is set to "PLAIN" yet when I press send/receive the error message says
"Error while Sending message.
Could not connect to smtp.live.com: Input/output error
POP Before SMTP auth using a non-pop source".
I've tried removing it and reinstalling it. One thing I did notice is that after reinstalling it, the last messages I had tried to send were still showing up. It operated as if I hadn't removed it at all. I did restart the computer between the removal and installation.
On another Evolution mail problem post, a user said that Evolution was a crappy program and people should switch to something else. Do many people think that is true? Does Thunderbird from Firefox work much better?
I'd rather fix it than give up by switching. I really like Mail on Apple computers because I can switch to the "from" tab and highlight numerous messages at one time to move them or delete them. In Evolution I must delete them one at a time.

A little prior to this I installed Wine beta using Ubuntu Software Centre, then applied the multiuser wine recipe as noted here [URL] /showthread.php?t=917422&), then installed a game called ToonTalk3 [URL], and then tried to install DirectX 10 as per these instructions [URL]
The directx install stalled with a series of messages about being unable to copy certain dll files. I aborted the install, using the install wizard's abort command. It was a bit after this that I noticed the flashing symptoms. They may have been there earlier but I usually run my apps full screen so wouldn't have noticed.
I've reversed the wine multi-user configure, again using the recipe, and run `sudo apt-get purge wine1.2`, and logged off and on. The flashing and errors still occur.During logon there are bunch of indicator applet error message dialog boxes (which I'll post later after finishing this message and conducting another log off/on cycle). I'm running Ubuntu 10.4 LTS 32bit on an Acer Asper 3500 notebook. The install is about 2 weeks old.

Has thunderbird (recent version) have a "TEST" function ? basically, i'm trying to send messages, with 20+ accounts (different emails, but one domain / SMTP server). one account works fine - the other one doesn't. i go to my "outgoing server" & everything is fine - usernames / ports etc..) The settings for each account do show the right outgoing server. If i 'send later' & close down thunderbird, 7 re-open - it asks me for my password again (which it saves), & then it is able to send the email.
QUESTION :- is there a TESt option that will test each & EVERY account in one timeslot ? Ie, will go through each email address - sends an email to itself (the same address), & sends it. it will then try the server again, to see if the email was received. & then give me a single report, of all the incorrect settings.(I've tried this 1 email account half a dozen times tonight & i dont know *WHY* its not sending on the 1st go.. )
I'm trying implement a small server for a university work, my server is creating, binding and listening but it don't accept any connection, these are the files I'm using in server:
Code:
// Definition of the Socket class
#ifndef SOCKET_H
#define SOCKET_H
#include <sys/types.h>
code....
I've made a client just for test it, but no ones run well, the server is always returning -1 when accept is called!!
What should I do to send and receive messages in this server??
I created a new account on laposte.net.
This account can receive messages but cannot send any from Thunderbird.

The system crontab (/etc/crontab) uses the same format, except that the username for the command is specified after the time and date fields and before the command.
[code]...
Every hour, I get an e-mail complaining about the first line of the crontab:
[code]...
I get the same complaint from the other entries: It looks to me as if cron, or anacron, is trying to execute the user (root) as a command. Predictably, the shell doesn't like it, so barfs and triggers an e-mail about it. Why is this not doing what the man page says it should do? The 2nd problem I believe is related to exim, not cron. The e-mails I'm getting above are being bounced from my ISP because they are directed to root@myisp.com, rather than my regular e-mail address. When the message bounces, it bounces to my regular e-mail address. In /etc/aliases, I have root: [URL]... and in etc/email-addresses I have root: [URL]... Adding the entry to /etc/email-addresses allowed the bounce to find me because the sender's address is [URL]... but how can I get cron to send these messages to me in the first place, instead of root?

The recipient opens the attachment and can listen to your message.
