The only time the NIS domain is set is if you have ypbind enabled (e.g. "service ypbind on"). You can bury the "NISDOMAIN=whatever" in /etc/sysconfig/network, /etc/sysconfig/ypbind or /etc/yp.conf. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Principal Engineer rstevens at internap.com - - CDN Systems, Internap, Inc. http://www.internap.com - - - - When in doubt, mumble. - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From Travis.R.Waldher at boeing.com Wed Jan 16 21:51:13 2008 From: Travis.R.Waldher at boeing.com (Waldher, Travis R) Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2008 13:51:13 -0800 Subject: ntpd not functioning Message-ID: The error is: Ntpdate: no servers can be used, exiting My ntp.conf file has a "server 192.168.158.52" line in it. If I run "ntpdate -d 192.168.158.52" I get a valid response from the ntp server so I know they are capable of talking to eachother. Ntpq even works. But with or without the ntpd daemon running I am getting the afore mentioned ntpdate error. I would like to just forget using ntpd since it's usless in vmware, but I can't seem to get the ntpdate error messages to go away.

If NISDOMAIN isn't set in /etc/sysconfig/network or /etc/sysconfig/ypbind, then the ypbind script looks for it by scanning /etc/yp.conf for an uncommented line beginning with "domain" (it can be any of the three "domain"-type lines). A client, by definition, has to run ypbind. Have a looksee at /etc/rc.d/init.d/ypbind for details. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Principal Engineer rstevens at internap.com - - CDN Systems, Internap, Inc. http://www.internap.com - - - - Memory is the second thing to go, but I can't remember the first! - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From rstevens at internap.com Wed Jan 16 23:31:41 2008 From: rstevens at internap.com (Rick Stevens) Date: Wed, 16 Jan 2008 15:31:41 -0800 Subject: ntpd not functioning In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <1200526301.23736.32.camel@prophead.corp.publichost.com> On Wed, 2008-01-16 at 13:51 -0800, Waldher, Travis R wrote: > The error is: > > > > Ntpdate: no servers can be used, exiting > > > > My ntp.conf file has a ?server 192.168.158.52? line in it. > > > > If I run ?ntpdate -d 192.168.158.52?

I can think of several ideas. Perhaps port 123 is blocked by an iptables before ntpd is started and that restriction is later removed? If you don't want ntpd at all, why not just "service --level 2345 ntpd off" in the vmwared host? ntpdate is run by the ntpd startup script. Did you also check /etc/ntp/step-tickers and /etc/ntp/servers and make sure they're empty or commented out? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Principal Engineer rstevens at internap.com - - CDN Systems, Internap, Inc. http://www.internap.com - - - - Denial.

Perhaps port 123 is blocked by an > iptables before ntpd is started and that restriction is later removed? Sorry, I thought I stated it. No iptables or hardware firewall anywhere. As I said, when I run ntpdate with the debug switch I can talk to the time server. If I take the debug switch off, I can't. That is confusing me. > > If you don't want ntpd at all, why not just "service --level 2345 ntpd > off" in the vmwared host? ntpdate is run by the ntpd startup script. I would love to, but, VMWare does a HORRIBLE time of keeping time on a system and for some reason ntpd is unable to keep the time sync'd at all. It may have to do with the virtual CPU issues causing the time sync problem in the first place. On one set of systems, to keep the time within even 2-3 seconds of eachother I have a cron job executing an ntpdate every 15 seconds. That's how fast it races. > > Did you also check /etc/ntp/step-tickers and /etc/ntp/servers and make > sure they're empty or commented out? Not empty or commented out. Could feeding it the IP address and not a host name be causing problems?

I got evaluvatoin license for AS 4.6and downloaded the DVD based iso for x86. Based on this I thought that it should work on AMD too. Now is there a way I can find out exactly for which "hardware" the installation failed. Could it be because of RAM size ? What are the other types of checks that the instalation software makes to determine hardware compatibility. The system I am installing AS 4.6 is not a high end machine and its required for experimentation. When I take a look at the install log in one of the virtual consoles ( Ctrl + Alt + F3) I see the following messages... legacy-software-development refrences package compact-libstdc++-295 which doesnt exist. compact-arch-support refrences package libehca which doesnt exist. the similar message was shown for these packages open Cryptoki, compact-libgcc-295, compact-libstdc++-295, elilo, s390utils, ppc64-utils, kernel, kernel-smp, kernel-largesmp, kerne-hugesmp Any idea what is going on ?

If you got the "x86_64" version, that's 64-bit ONLY. > Now is there a way I can find out exactly for which "hardware" the > installation failed. Could it be because of RAM size ?

You need at least 256MB for a GUI install, 512MB is better. > When I take a look at the install log in one of the virtual consoles > ( Ctrl + Alt + F3) I see the following messages... > > legacy-software-development refrences package compact-libstdc++-295 > which doesnt exist. > compact-arch-support refrences package libehca which doesnt exist. > the similar message was shown for these packages open Cryptoki, > compact-libgcc-295, compact-libstdc++-295, elilo, s390utils, > ppc64-utils, kernel, kernel-smp, kernel-largesmp, kerne-hugesmp > > Any idea what is going on ? It sorta looks like you're trying to install a 64-bit OS on a 32-bit machine. You want the i386 version, NOT the x86_64 version. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Principal Engineer rstevens at internap.com - - CDN Systems, Internap, Inc. http://www.internap.com - - - - Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
