restore usage

I'd created a backup of a single directory from /var
dump -0 -f /dev/st0 /var/dir-to-backup
then I delete that directory

how can I restore that directory using restore command
It seems it want to rebuild entire filesystem ?

obtaining a boot disk with a loadable module

Hi, can someone give me advice on creating a boot disk with a specific 
loadable module. I can't boot my linux system because it can't load the 
module for the scsi host adapter. The module is on the scsi disc. How can I 
get a boot disk that contains the module for the scsi host adapter?
I'm using RH 7.3.

You need boot screen like WinXX, you work under NDA, so you must be
working on the next Win release for M$ :-)

Just kidding, sorry.

Re: obtaining a boot disk with a loadable module

Hi,

 What you should do it's to compile a kernel in other linux box and 
compile the modules that you want to use, then create
a boot disk using "mkbootdisk --device /dev/fd0 2.4.19" (or the kernel 
number )

httpd connection refused message

Hi folks,
	My ISP renumbered their network Monday morning (at midnight) and my 
cable modem got hung.  I called tech support to get the cable modem to 
unhang, and my network came back with the new address (after I ifup'ed 
again).  My problem is that ever since then, whenever I try and access 
my home WWW page, I get the message:

	The connection was refused when attempting to contact kjchome.homeip.net:81

I am running apache on port 81 because my ISP is blocking port 80 access 
(thank you Code Red!).  This was working for a LONG time previous to 
this incident.

I have NO PROBLEM if I use an internal network name or IP address, but I 
cannot seem to use the eth1 network name or IP address.  I get a 
different error if I try the external address port 80 (which is due to 
the port 80 port blocking, no?)  So, what has changed so that I cannot use:

	httpd://kjchome.homeip.net:81

but access to this URL seems to work just fine for people on the other 
side of my cable modem?????

Have I misconfigured something (to the best of my knowledge, I haven't 
changed my apache configuration).

Some guesses are: 
	
	firewall rules are setup for old ipaddress

	webserver is still configured for old ip address

	tcp_wrappers is still configured for old ip address.  look at

Could also be that you have your own DNS server running which hasn't been updated.

Re: httpd connection refused message

Thanks to everyone who responded.  I finally today fixed the problem
(but not before my ISP renumbered my network *again*!  Turns out it was
a Mozilla cache problem.  When I cleared out Mozilla's caches,
everything was fine again.   Sigh!   Seems Mozilla somehow remembers the
old IP address of a cached page, even if it may have changed!  (I had a
9 day timeout on my cached pages.)

postfix vs. qmail

I want to get rid of sendmail and frankly I don't know which to choose: 
postfix or qmail, as both of them are said to be projected with the purpose 
of security in mind.

can I have some of your opinions/suggestions/experience with them, please ?

thanks,

petre
