Hi all!
I'm having two problems, and it would be very helpfull if somebody could give me a clue.
I have been runnig sme server 5.1.2 since a week or two it has been released, i have done a few backups since I use server as backup for work in my workstations. (have no tape in server) so the only important thing in my server is account, and group info, (mail is pop3)
Here are the problems: my mail server seems to be a little troubled, since I can't receive mail from out my network, but I have been able to send a few test mail to hotmail accouns and so...
I have been receiving some strange messages in the logs like theese
Got discovery packet (pppoe server)
Successfull loockup in..... etc etc
so I decided that was time to make a full reinstallation of my server to reorder somethings.
But here is the second problem, when i try to make a reinstallation disk I get this error message:
Software error:
"Error occurred while creating the reinstallation diskette.
For help, please send mail to the webmaster (admin@myserver.xxx), giving this error message and the time and date of the error.
of course admin@myserver.xxx is me, so i would not get any help from thay guy!

Look at the bugs page
http://www.e-smith.org/bugs/index.php3?op=showBug&bugID=49
also go to
http://myezserver.com/downloads/mitel/contrib/updates/
and download/install updated reinstall floppy .rpm
Note where are a lot of isues with restore from desktop, do search on the forum and read backup/restore threads BEFORE you trust to your backup.
Good luck.
