My mail server (Ubuntu 10.04) uses mysql for virtual domains, virtual users. For some reason, mysqld has started refusing connections from localhost. I see these in the mail server log:

Well, this is a new SSD, as I mentioned ... and it *almost* works with the BIOS set to AHCI. It *does* work with the BIOS set to IDE.
*sigh* So many hours ... NOTHING is worse than something that...
The disk was /dev/sda in a vm while connected via USB to the physical box. I did do a plain vanilla DVD disk install with the drive in the machine; it did't work. I'll try your suggestions above and...
Hello,
I've installed Linux Mint 13 (AKA Ubuntu 12.04) on my SSD several times. No matter how I've tried it (from DVD, from USB key, inside Virtualbox), the machine refuses to boot from the drive...
run ps aux | grep whiptail (where in the directory tree doesn't matter), and note the process number for whiptail. Then sudo kill -9 <thatprocessnumber>. The process number (such as 21120) is...
This is starting to get to me ....
I built a new machine with a Foxconn M7PMX-S motherboard, Intel Quad proc, yada yada, an IDE CD/DVD (master), PATA 160 GB HD (slave), and 2 1.5 TB SATA drives....
Change your IP ranges to something like this:
192.168.7.x/24 hosts --> 192.168.7.254 (linux eth0) --> 192.168.8.1/24 (linux eth1) --> 192.168.8.254/24 (DSL router)
route add default gw...
Got lucky ... apt-get installed a newer kernel that doesn't like this machine. An old kernel booted. Data backing up, machine rebuild forthcoming.
Phshew.
Ummm, help. Here's a rundown of events:
1) Server became unreachable over the network. A telnet to port 22 would open, but no ssh string, and ssh to the box would fail. Same with port 25 (box is a...
Upgraded 8.04 64-bit to 8.10. Had some interesting issues with NVidia drivers, which I fixed.
Networking anomalies:
1) I had wicd installed on 8.04. Still installed on 8.10. wicd is configured...
This may or may not be helpful. I had used envy to install my NVidia drivers in 8.04. When I rebooted into 8.10, my video driver world was a mess.
I ended up using envyng -t (terminal mode) to...

Thanks, that did it.
Running Ubuntu 64-bit. Followed the upgrade directions -- used "Software Sources" to select "Show Normal Upgrades," installed all Hardy updates, used Update Manager to refresh apt files. But Update...
Fixed it. The /dev/log device was also gone. /etc/init.d/sysklogd restart recreated the device, and now all is well.

I did an oops a few days ago, and wiped out /sbin on my email server. I replaced it with /sbin from another box. Ever since, postfix and amavis are working fine, filtering, delivering email, etc.,...

Hasmarth,
Just execute the commands in 0.3, and if it says "Not found," ignore it and keep going. You'll be fine.

This morning I apt-get upgraded my 8.04 server box, and got some of the recent ssh fixes that have gone in since the last apt-get upgrade I ran on May 13. I believe I also installed a couple of...
Well, apt-get --purge remove postfix and a reinstall fixed things. It wasn't configuration, since I backed up /etc/postfix and restored all the same config files afterwards.
Weird.

Whoever fixes this gets a prize. :-)
I'm trying to (finally) replace my antique P3 home server with a newer box. So over the weekend I upgraded it from Ubuntu 7.04 to 7.10 (no problems, and I...
More information:
I can send mail between local accounts no problem. As far as I can tell, the only problem I need to solve is why the Postfix process doesn't get a good DNS result.
This is an...
This is a weird one, at least to me. I put a new machine up as an email server. It is receiving inbound email OK. However, when I send test email to my account at yahoo.com, it is stuck in the...
