How should I upgrade debian/xen machines from etch to lenny did you observe dist-upgrade migrating xen from 3.0 to 3.2 on your setup? That is not what happened for me :-( |

How do I add outbound only mail service for local tools to a 'minimal' debian system? Additionally, most of the defaults suggested were machinename.example.com where I think I want example.com |

How do I add outbound only mail service for local tools to a 'minimal' debian system? Are you sure the configuration is correct. On my current lenny install, the following are offered: internet site; mail is sent and received directly using SMTP mail sent by smarthost; received via SMTP or fetchmail mail sent by smarthost; no local mail local delivery only; not on a network no configuration at this time The third sounds nearer to what I think I want... |

How should I upgrade debian/xen machines from etch to lenny I want to use official debian packages, so I can benefit from debians general security update management, etc. So yes, I am opposed to building Xen from source. |

How can I create a non-ssh VPN on debian/linux? I should perhaps observe that I have looked at OpenVPN, and it is obviously a good solution to many VPN problems. Just not the one I wish to solve in this question. |

How can I create a non-ssh VPN on debian/linux? For the stated reason - I want to know what my options are to use the built in clients. I will probably give access to this VPN to people who I can't insist install particular software on their PCs |

Explain the pros and cons of standard desktop OS this reads like two separate questions. Perhaps you could reprhase and ask each separately? One appears to be about standardisation, and one about upgrading large windows installs. |

How do I create an interactive daemon login? I presume the clamp to 'screen' is notional, if the daemon permits spawning of other processes? |

How do I create an interactive daemon login? I don't mind or care what the user can do inside the lisp image - I just don't want to manage a login password for this user. |

How do I create an interactive daemon login? The service is a lisp image, which it is important to have interactive access to. |

How should I upgrade debian/xen machines from etch to lenny On my etch setup, the apt-get dist-upgrade did not touch xen, leaving 3.0 in the lenny image. Unfortunately, xen 3.0 was dependent on python 2.4, and lenny replaces this with 2.5. This resulted in machine that could no longer boot any xen vms. The issue appears to be a problem for many folks on the interweb. I wonder why it did not impact your configuration? |
