Adam's questions

I use Google Apps for my company email. We would like certain emails to be handled by an application. These emails are part of the service we provide. So, what we want is:

emails to application@mycompany.com get handled by a special mail server emails to joe@mycompany.com get handled by Google Apps

I want both emails to have the same domain.

I could set up a route within Google Apps, but application@mycompany.com gets a lot of email very frequently. Google Apps has throttling, I need to make sure this email is NOT throttled.

How can I route incoming emails to different mailservers?

I've found that a lot of upgrade commands and Apache on my system are failing with Segmentation faults. I don't know if this is the main one, but a lot of packages depend on util-linux:

Please help me figure out why Apache2 will not start:

root@myUbuntu804ServerName:~# /etc/init.d/apache2 start
 * Starting web server apache2
Segmentation fault
   ...fail!

The application running on it is mostly PHP. How do I go about diagnosing and fixing this?

Thanks!

I have an Amazon EC2 instance which according to the management console has no EBS volumes attached to it. Yet, when I run df I see /dev/sda1 and \dev\sda2 both are "disk"s. What are they? Is one the instance-store? If so then what is the other?

Thanks.

I have an Amazon EC2 instance that is using an instance-store as its root device. It has no EBS volumes attached to it. It has a database and a running web application on it. If I understand correctly this is a bad setup as I would lose all the data on the instance if it were to reboot. I would like to correct this mistake. I'd like to move all the data on the running instance to a new EBS volume and make that new volume the root device. How do I go about doing this?

Thanks!

I have three EC2 instances. I want to attach an EBS volume to one of the instances. Alas, when I go to the EBS volume and click attach, the drop down list of instances does not include the instance I wish to attach it to. There are only two instances on the list. Why is the instance missing from the list?

Thanks!
