Dear Managers,
Four unrelated questions:
1) I use the "trashcan" utilities in AdvFS to provide undelete
features for my users. This morning one of my users indicated his
trashcan was no longer working. I checked all users: approximately
2/3 of the accounts no longer had attached trashcans, but the other
1/3 were OK (including this account, which is why I didn't notice it
myself!) I reattached the trashcans, but can anyone think of a reason
why this "unattachment" took place?
2) A recent post mentioned using the -N switch to vdump to
store multiple savesets on a tape (or using /dev/nrmt0h). How do you
recover them with vrestore? I could only find the first one.
3) Several posts last year mentioned problems with sendmail
after applying the syslogd patch (ECO SSRT0359_OSF1032C). I would
like to perform the patch, but not if it will disrupt my E-mail
service. Any further word from DEC or anyone else?
4) We use disk quotas on /var to prevent huge amounts of
unread mail from piling up (a relatively low soft limit and a high
hard limit to accommodate transient use). Since this is an educational
institution we also have a high rate of user turnover. Is there any
way of DELETING a user from the quota database?
Thanks. As usual, I will summarize any significant
information I receive.
P.S. This is an EXTREMELY useful list!! A good job by managers and
contributors alike!
Larry
