Got my freezer and wind generator, but looks like I'm going to have to do some rewiring to get the necessary juice to the freezer. And have to buy some pipe to mount the Air-X, it doesn't come with any kind of tower.
Got my DragonLinux system forwarding mail for everybody who wants it (so far
only myself) at COSF. Check out my /etc/ppp/ip-up
script for the details; it checks all members of the "users" group for a
readable .netrc and .fetchmailrc file, and if found, runs fetchmail on their
behalf using a cron job. It waits for sendmail and fetchmail to finish (they
are all spawned as subprocesses) using pidof, then shuts down
the link. Another cron job kills the ppp link after 15 minutes just in case
something hangs.
I've built a new fetchmail package for Slackware, including
ssl support, downloadable as fetchmail-6.3.3-i686-2jlc.tgz. It might work on a 486 or even a 386, but was built on an old slow
Pentium box. I'll try to submit it to linuxmafia.org again, but last time
their nameserver couldn't resolve my www.jcomeau.com CNAME. So many
resolvers out there have that problem, I can't figure out why. I checked my
settings with DNSreport.com and they look
good, so I'm assuming there are a lot of misconfigured nameservers out there.
