I've been following The Perfect setup for Mandriva and it states: To see if SMTP-AUTH and TLS work properly now run the following command: telnet localhost 25 After you have established the connection to your postfix mail server type ehlo localhost If you see the lines 250-STARTTLS and 250-AUTH everything is fine. Up to this point, everything has gone smoothly. After I telnet, I get Connected to server1.xxxx.xx (127.0.0.1) Escape character is '^]'. and that's where it hangs... I type in anything and it just hangs there, no commands work, only the escape character gets me anywhere. Is there a reason it says it's connected, but nothing else happens or works? Suggestions as to figure out what I've done wrong? Thanks
yes it does. hosts shows 127.0.0.1 server1.xxxx.xx server1 localhost I also continued on with the appache install and php doesn't seem to install (Appache2-mod_php) because it is showing there is a conflict with php-ncurses. Is there a way to remove ncurses and install php first and then try to reinstall ncurses?
