Azure

I have a Linux VM in Azure, created from their default image.

My problem is simply that the init script network doesn't look like to start, so dependent services (apache, postfix...) won't start.

If I run yast runlevel and try to start postfix it asks me to start network first: if I accept, network is started without errors and then postfix is started.

While network is configured to start on boot, it just doesn't appear to have started. Anyway, SSH connections work fine.

Currently, I had to edit my init scripts and remove network from the Required-Start list, but that didn't work for posftix (even after running systemctl --system daemon-reload).

How can I fix all this?

Being new to OpenSUSE (v.11.2) and the GNOME desktop, I am somewhat at a loss.

For instance, how do I determine what install… >>> More

Okay, so I'm trying to do something that should be rather simple but for some reason I can't quite seem to make it work. All I simply want to do is add a path to the PATH environment variable in openSuse. So far, I've edited the following line in /etc/default/su : PATH=/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin with… >>> More
