The /etc/hosts.equiv on the Linux machine should look like:
+aixhost
+linuxuser
or
+aixhost linuxuser
The username in the hosts.equiv must be the username on the Linux box,
not the AIX box.
If possible, I HIGHLY recommend you NOT use rsh, rcp, or telnet--
especially over an unsecured network, as all network I/O is
unencryptyed. Use the ssh equivalents, ssh and scp.

Ok, is the machine available on a network-capable KVM? If so, can I
have a login on it to see what the fark is going on? Contact me off-
list if these things are possible and I'll see what I can do.

I use a Palm Tungsten T5 and can sync to Ubuntu fine. Once I get it syncing
to FC4, I'll be good to go (again; older model on serial worked fine), but
I'm curious if any of you Linux Palm-ites use Documents2Go and don't feel
very productive without it. I'm curious if there's a Linux solution
comparable to Docs2Go. I don't want the graphics parts. All I really want is
a spreadsheet, text editor and presentations-like app.
Thanks,

Version Enterprise Server 3 ? , the last time i recall
Enterprise was NCC -1701 E ? :))
Seriously now are you running a version
of Redhat Linux with a 2.6 kernel ?
Could you please be a bit more specific ?
What version of Mozilla are you trying to run ?
How did you installed the version of Mozilla in
question ?
I have never failled to run a version of Mozilla since the
days of Valhalla ( Redhat 7.3 ) and Mozilla 1.4.something

I use OpenOffice on the desktop, but it doesn't run on the Palm. Docs2Go
does, and on Windows there's a conduit that converts the documents into
native MS or WP format. I'm looking for something in the Linux world that
would 'plugin' to J-Pilot, specifically.

You probably won't. What does the alert window specifically say? Could
you possibly have another copy of Mozilla running under the same user?
Ideally, open a console window and as root try:
# killall -9 mozilla-bin
That will kill any running Mozillas that may be hidden. Then try
starting it again.

For everyone's info, Red Hat Enterprise V2.1 (ES2.1 and AS2.1) were
based on Red Hat Linux 7.2 with a 2.4 kernel. ES/AS/WS/DT3 are all
based on Fedora Core 1 and run a 2.4 kernel. ES/AS/WS/DT4 are based on
Fedora Core 3 and run a 2.6 kernel.

That is odd. The "wvdial.conf" file should have sections called
"[Dialer something]". "[Dialer Defaults]" contains the default
settings. "[Dialer Modem0]" would be used if you used "wvdial Modem0"
and any settings in that section will override the stuff in the "[Dialer
Defaults]" section.
In fact, that may be where the problem is. The thing should be:
[Dialer Defaults]
MODEM = /dev/ttyUSB0
Baud = 19200
Dial Command = ATDT
Init1 = ATZ
Init3 = ATM0
Phone1 = 555-5555

Actually, it's the configuration file kickstart uses.

/bin/ksh exists of my fedora machine, but when I run scripts with
#!/bin/ksh at the top
I get the message "bad interpreter : no such file or directory"
Why is this?
running /bin/ksh from the command line works fine
bash is the default shell for the user I am running under.

Run /usr/bin/ftp instead of /usr/kerberos/bin/ftp?

Subject: Desktop never loads for one user
Message-ID:
Hello,
When logging in to a user account on RHEL 4, It looks like the screen resolution changes because the mouse pointer doubles in size and then everything stops and the desktop never loads. The mouse pointer can be moved around the screen however left, right and middle clicking have no effect. I can log in as any other user and everything loads and works. Does anyone know what I can do to get that one user's desktop to load?
Thanks!

Hi,
We just installed RH AS 3 on a dell 2650 poweredge for an java application
that runs on AS 3.As soon as we run this application(this app caters to a
lot of client hits ie lot of load) and we run a netstat to troubleshoot
application networking issues we get "Warning : got bogus tcp line " and FEW
ESTABLISHED to clientsand the rest being "warning bogus TCP line" ...most of
the connection being bogus tcp lines. What is the implication of this as we
often need to retstart our application also...pls assist
Are there any methods to tweak the TCP/ip stack for heavy load??
ANy pointers appreciated
regards

I have had similar problems and (for me) they usually come down to;
1) A bad or missing configuration file.
2) Screwed up permissions.
3) A user selected "X" server that isn't functioning properly for some reason.
Other times I will make a new (dummy) user and chmod and chown and do a cp -af
copying the configuration files over.
Sometimes (if things are really messed up) I will just re-initialize the
user. I.E delete then re-add the user.
Hope this gives a start.

I've got SAMBA set up on my Linux computer and my son is over and
he needs to connet his XP notebook to the network to print on my
printer.
XP is all messed up, it's nothing like anything I've played with
before and I can't seem to get it to even find my printer or any
of my shared drives. I was able to figure out how to set up a
workgroup on his computer that matched the one on my Linux
machine (same as the other windows computers use).
He is getting on the wireless network in the house and that part
works OK.
Anyway, how does an XP connect to my Linux drives and printer.

I think you have to setup the login name he uses on XP as a user on the
Linux Samba server. Either that or the name of the XP Computer. You've got a
good start with the workgroup name, but in my experience it's not necessary
if you set the other part up. I apologize for not knowing whether it's the
PC name or the login name. To see the syntax, however, type addsmbuser at #
and see what it says.

http://wiki.linux-ha.org but this HW could not show up on my Linux
Box, what this driver need to compile kernel to get this device ?

Karl,
Thanks for the help but I can't figure it out - yet. The command
addsmbuser didn't work but I found smbadduser which doesn't like
anything I put in. The computer name is DFOPH071 (assigned from
the install I guess) but smbadduser DFOPH071 gives and error
looking for a different format.
He doesn't have to login onto his computer, it just boots and he
is there. I'll try to do some more web searches - I had to
borrow his computer to run my tax software and now I can't
print it out. 8^(

As a emergency method until someone helps you, it is a laptop so just
connect the printer directly to the laptop and do your printing, save you
time of having to figure out how to get it working. Personally I have no
problem printing to a printer on linux from xp, but have never been able to
print to a printer on xp from linux, but then I don't spend anytime trying
to figure it out. Like I said do the quick fix and solve the other when you
have a lot of spare time

Otto,
Very good idea, which I though of a few hours ago but when I
got everything together I realized that the computer did not have
a printer port other than USB and the printer only has a standard
printer input.
Thanks for the thought, wish it could have worked.

Brad,
You could always map a Samba share as a Samba user, then you would
be able to see any shared printers. Right-click My Computer, choose Map
Network drive, choose a letter, and the share
\\sambaservername\share
then click Connect using different user name, and use one of your Samba
user names to map the shared drive. XP will cache the user name and
password entered, so now click Start, Run, and enter:
\\sambaservername
then click OK, and you should get a list of all your Samba shares,
including the printer(s). XP should lose the cached information when
you logout or reboot. I don't think you can enter "different user" info
to install a printer directly, but this should work. If that doesn't
work, install CutePDF, and email it to yourself (electronic sneakernet)
- good luck,
Kevin

I forgot to mention one very annoying idiosyncrasy of MS OSes. If it fails
to connect, some type of caching is done and you have to reboot the OS to
try again. To help make it faster, hold the left-shift key down while
rebooting and it will just restart Windows rather than doing the whole
power-cycle thing.

Even though he doesn't have to login, there's a user. If you click on Start
and Logout, it tells you who you are attemping to logout when it asks if
you're sure.
AND the syntax for smbadduser is smbadduser LOGIN:UNIXID IIRC.
Here's what I get if I just type smbadduser with no arguments:

By default, running "ftpd" will run a Kerberosed version of ftpd. The
normal FTP daemon used is "vsftpd" (normal startup is "service vsftpd
start") and does not use Kerberos.
Of course, you could start up the Kerberos server and generate the
various tickets and such and actually run Kerberos. The daemon will
allow you to authenticate via Kerberos, SSL or username/password.

That error is normally thrown by the uml-utilities stuff. Make sure
you're fully updated. If you're not using UML (User Mode Linux), then
you can safely remove it ("rpm -e") and the problem should go away.

FC4's "kernel-devel" package only includes the headers and such for
building a kernel--it does NOT include the kernel source.
If you want to build a custom kernel:
1. Go to some repository and download the kernel SRPM for the kernel
you want. For example, the URL for FC4 kernel source RPMs off the
kernel.org mirror site is:
http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/updates/4/SRPMS/
2. Install the kernel source RPM via "rpm -i".
3. Execute the following commands as the root user:
# cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
# rpmbuild -bp target=i686 kernel-2.6.spec
4. To create your normal kernel development area, as root:
# cd /usr/src/redhat/BUILD/kernel-2.6.(majorversion)
# mv linux-2.6.(majorversion) /usr/src/linux-2.6.(fullversion)
5. Create your symbolic links as the root user:
# cd /usr/src
# ln -s linux-2.6.(fullversion) linux-2.6
# ln -s linux-2.6.(fullversion) linux
6. Configure the source and such:
# cd /usr/src/linux-2.6
# make menuconfig
In the discussion above, "(majorversion)" refers to the major version
of the kernel (e.g. "2.6.15"), "(fullversion)" refers to the full
version number (e.g. "2.6.15-1.1851_FC4").

All three will run. The full advantages of a dual-core processor will
only be realized on 2.6 kernels, however, and that's FC3 or FC4 (RH9 is
a 2.4 kernel as is Fedora Core 1).

Hi
This is robotics,I have seen your mail and gone through the Problems that U have Faced.
1) All U need to do is to Check for the resolution and the set the Resolutions.
2) One more thing is that can U see the type monitor that U use while linux is booting if not then U need to manually mount the monitor in single user mode.
Hence try this 2 steps if the problem is not fixed send me a mail with problem that ur faced with the attachment.
Thankyou

First, NEVER reply to a digest message. Either reply to messages that
relate to your problem or, to create a new subject thread, create a new
message and post it to the list. Replying to digests is bad form.
NFS SERVER
For NFS to work, you must start the various NFS daemons and create an
export list of directories you want shared on the NFS server. This is
done by entering the following commands as the root user:
# service portmap start
# service nfslock start
# service nfs start
If you want them to start on the next boot, enter these three commands
as well:
# chkconfig portmap on
# chkconfig nfslock on
# chkconfig nfs on
Next, you must edit the /etc/exports file and put in the directories you
want shared along with the access list of the machines allowed to mount
them. Details on this are in the exports(5) man page ("man exports").
Once you've edited that file, enter the following command as root:
# exportfs -a
and they should be shared from that point. You can verify it by
entering the command:
# showmount -e
NFS CLIENT
Now, as far as the NFS clients, you have to start up the NFS client
software:
# service portmap start
# service netfs start
To have it restart on the next boot:
# chkconfig portmap start
# chkconfig netfs on
You then can either mount the shares manually or put them in
the /etc/fstab file so they'll be mounted automatically on boot. To
mount them manually, create the mountpoint where you want them to go,
then:
# mount -t nfs server:/share /mountpoint
The equivalent line in /etc/fstab would be:
server:/share /mountpoint nfs defaults,rw 0 0
The format of the /etc/fstab is in the fstab(5) man page ("man fstab").
I also HIGHLY recommend you get a book on NFS. One of the defacto
standards is O'Reilly's "Managing NFS and NIS" by Hal Stern.

Subject: Clustering RHEL 4 with EXP400
Message-ID: <751353696.20060308111357@sur.ogs-id.com>
Dear All,
does any one here have experince to cluster RHEL 4 with 2 IBM x346
and 1 EXP 400,
I need to do this for build Oracle10g On Rac, whether I need driver
for build and startup of this device.
may I know what I need for this requirement?
and what should I do to get driver of IBM EXP400 ?
I've been success install IBM X346 with Raid 1 option on RHEL 4, but I
really confuse what next to do to show up cluster on EXP400 (whether I
have no driver for this device to share storage)
Thanks for your share knowledge.

I've clustered RHEL3 with 2x Dell PowerEdge 2650/ServeRAID 6M and
1 EXP400. This was an active/passive cluster, using the ServeRAID's
hardware fencing to prevent more than one node from accessing the
volumes on the EXP400. x346+RHEL4 shouldn't be any difference.
Now, I'm not much familiar with Oracle10g On Rac, but is it really an
active/passive solution you want there? AFAIK you can't have both
nodes active against the volumes on the EXP400 at the same time.

Whilst installing, shortly after loading the SATA-driver a get a kernel

Installing RHEL 4 AS 32-bit on the same system works fine.
Installing RHEL 4 AS 64-bit on a similar system, but with 2 AMD

Any advice is welcome

Ok, here is an example of the Error that I'm receiving:
ISOLINUX 2.11 2004-08-16 isolinux: Loading spec packet failed, trying
to wing it...
isolinux: Extremely broken BIOS detected, last ditch attempt with drive = 9F
isolinux: Disk error 01, AX = 4209, drive 9F
Boot failed: press a key to retry...
Here is my machine:
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-K8NSC-939
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 3200
RAM: 2 Gig
Video: ATI X800
Sound: SoundBlaster & Retek AC'97 (Onboard)
LAN: Marvell Yukon 88E8001/8003/810 (Onboard)
Secondary IDE: Inclose ID ATA66-2C (2 Cards Total)
SCSI: AMD PCI
Drives:
Samsung SV4002H 40 Gig
Maxtor 96147H8 60 Gig
Maxtor 4G160J8 160 Gig
Sony DVD DDU220E
Memorex DVD16+/-DL4RWND2
Quantum 4 Gig TM3840A
Seagate ST329OA
NEC CDROM 465 SCSI
Sony CDRW CRX14SS SCSI
When I tried to install, I took two different routes, first was a SCSI install (which had worked before) and the bios didn't pick up on the disk at all. Second was from an IDE boot and it posted the previous error. In that time I spent a whole day trying to figure out how to install Fedora Core 4 from floppy and I haven't found a way to do it.
All of the images that I find from Redhat are too big for that type of medium and I don't have a flash drive or any other type that is required. Also, I spent the rest of the day trying to make a Boot Disk from http://syslinux.zytor.com/sbm but I was never successful. I could make the floppy bootable with the *.sys file that was provided but I couldn't get the program to access the drive after that or figure out what files to copy so ldlinux.sys was the only file that I was aware of.
I know what the obvious answer is and its one that I'm really avoiding for two reasons. I know that to track the hardware down that it doesn't like I should completely tear the machine down and add one thing at a time after install. This is undesirable for two reasons:
1.. it would take almost 2 days worth of work
2.. anytime Windows has to reassign memory addresses, you run the risk of the OS shutting down with Windows 2000
So does anyone have another work around?

would a floppy disk you can boot off help ? if so check this:
You can also get something like Smart BootManager:
http://btmgr.webframe.org/
This is a media-agnostic boot program that fits on a floppy and will
let you boot almost any media on your machine.

Ok, inadvertently I maybe answering my own question...But at the same time, I'm still unsure of the solution....
When I told you the drives attached, I took them in order from the way that I think that there on the bus:
Board IDE & Raid:
Samsung SV4002H 40 Gig
Maxtor 96147H8 60 Gig
Maxtor 4G160J8 160 Gig
PCI IDE Card 1:
Sony DVD DDU220E
Memorex DVD16+/-DL4RWND2
PCI IDE Card 2:
Quantum 4 Gig TM3840A
Seagate ST329OA
SCSI:
NEC CDROM 465 SCSI
Sony CDRW CRX14SS SCSI
Well, the utility that you showed me would be good if I had a smaller system, but from what I see it only installs for the controllers on the board......
I have these controllers in this order with the drives because of the distance of the cables. It would be nice to have the CD's on the board but they are low on the case so I put them on the PCI IDE's.......
So is that what needs to be done?........Put the IDE ROM's on the board?

That sounds like a BIOS issue on your motherboard, Klaus. Make sure
the Opteron 250 board has the latest version of the BIOS installed.

You can't. The 2.6 kernel is too big to fit on a floppy. You either
install from CD, DVD, or network. If your machine doesn't have a
CD/DVD, then you have to use something like a FLASH disk (pen drive,
etc.) to hold the boot image AND your BIOS must be able to boot from
a USB device (not all can).

That won't work. Again, the 2.6 kernel is too big to fit on a floppy.
You can get something like SmartBoot Manager and use it to boot off
media you normally can't (such as the aforementioned pen drive).

The first thing is to make damned sure your motherboard has the latest
BIOS installed. You'd be amazed at how many problems go away when the
BIOS is correct. Since the first error you get shows that the BIOS
didn't initialize things correctly, that's your first thing to check.

Actually for things the BIOS sees. If you were to disable the
board-based IDE and enable the BIOS on the plug-in cards, it'd work.

IDE cables are good for a meter (a little over 3 feet), provided they're
good cables. What the heck kind of machine is this...a VAX? :-) I've
never seen a desktop box that needed more than a meter of cable for
ANYTHING inside it.

Wait...this isn't clear. Typically, if you have an IDE RAID1, the
two drives on the IDE controller can ONLY be set up in the RAID. The
controller is either in RAID mode or it isn't--you can't have it both
ways.
The simplest thing is to put the CDs on your secondary IDE controller.

The x86 or x86_64 CDs or DVD will work. The black screen isn't
uncommon. Try entering "linux nofb" at the "boot:" prompt when you
install and I'll bet it shows up.
Rembember, the x86 CD/DVD will install 32-bit Linux on your machine.
The "x86_64" CD/DVD will install 64-bit Linux.

Hello,
Been a while, enjoy this list very much!
Using RH9
I'm having an issue with authentication via ipop3d, seems to take about
30-60 seconds for the user to authenticate and get mail. I found a few
messages in the RH archive about the passwd file and users at the bottom
taking longer to authenticate versus users at the beginning of the file
taking less, this is true in my situation. The passwd file is 228 lines
which I'm assuming is not as large as some others. With myself being at the
top apparently I have not noticed. As an example a user who was just added
and shows up at the bottom of this file is taking well over 30 seconds to
authenticate. With that said does anyone have any ideas or solutions?
I have investigated DNS and confirmed reverse lookups and things on that
nature, all of which appear to functioning properly.
TIA,
Dan

Ok......I think what your confused on is design of my board.........its a
wierd gigabyte thing.......
On board there are only two controlers......one IDE and one RAID.......it
use to be that they made them in pairs but that is no longer the case....
I have been playing to see if I can get this to load and its already proven
to be too much for microsoft so i'm gonna have to pull every thing out and
set them all up the old fashioned way....Meaning putting one CD and one HD
on the only IDE and then loading that way and then controling it through the
bois for booting.....
the part I was talking about with the cables is a development that I have
noticed as of late but its because of where i'm placing my drives.......I
have an old Aopen full tower, which 4 HD bays are in the top back, floppy on
top front, 5 bays in the front and three underneath in front........what i'm
running into is that for some companies to save money are providing smaller
IDE cables......by like an inch or two........but when I run 2 drives off
the same cable and then put them in the bays in the rear above the power
suppily......those couple of inchs make all the difference in the
world......

Message-ID: <5ce05200603081413r73ef7a16w3625efcef67e113b@mail.gmail.com>
Greetings,
I installed FC4 using the server option during the install. This machine
will be used for apache/mysql/php. I need to install
mysql 5.0 server and client. I have the instructions for that but trying to
install the src-rpm for mysqlserver 5 gives me
error: cannot create %sourcedir /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
I assume because I did not install the rpm source during the install of FC4
Can someone point me to how to install these from the cd's I have or what to
do ?
Thank you.

[root at localhost /]# rpm -v -i MySQL-5.0.18-0.src.rpm
error: cannot create %sourcedir /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
and of course /usr/src is empty.

No real ideas, other than how about moving your ID to the bottom of the list
and then running a timed test... It would at least verify what you are
suspecting.

No, but you must be root to install a source RPM.

I don't think you're doing anything wrong. The ISOLINUX thing is the
very first thing displayed when the CD boots. After a while, you should
be shown the installation screen. The "boot:" prompt should be at the
bottom of that screen.
If the system hangs before you're shown the installation screen, you
have more serious issues. In that case, I'd download something called
the "Ultimate Boot CD" (http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/), burn it to a
CD and run some of the diagnostics on that--especially the memory tests.

Thx for the hint , Rick.
BIOS looks quite fresh - (the box comes quite new direct from FSC.
Phoenix Trusted Core Server
Version: 1-05-1818
Build Time: 12/20/2005 11:07:30
Would it be a good idea to install 32-bit kernel first. And when the
machine is up, to add 64-bit kernel ?
When booting with RHEL 4 AS Install-DVD for 64 bit AMD64 and Intel
EM64T
I see:
.... Running sbin loader
Loading sata_nv driver
Kernel panic - not syncing: PCI-DMA: high address but no IOMU.
( for information: system has 8 GB memory)
When running with FC4 32-bit /proc/cpuinfo looks quite well

Thanks for your reply Karl. After a bit more research I discovered the
problem is with ident sending back to port 113, the client machine in
question had the default windows firewall turn on. I added an exception for
port 113 and holey smokes that was it, lighting quick now. Hope this might
help somebody else out. I noticed some others removed:
log_on_success += USERID
log_on_failure += USERID
I have not tried that yet. Anyone know if this will stop ident from
communicating back with the client?

I was hoping that I would just be able to install after the last time you guys tried to help but I'm witnessing things that I've never seen before and I quite frankly don't even know how to research to find the answer because I don't understand what is going on......
I have tried to install Core 4 five times now and frankly, I'm getting nowhere....The first time was completely my fault because I found out that the second disk I had burned was bad.....so there are four installs where the results were parallel....
After the bad installation, I proceeded to download and make a new disk to replace the second which was bad. After doing so, I started setup again and I assigned the drives to automatically partition like this:
Samsung 40 (Left alone) hda (IDE)
IDE CDROM
Maxtor 160 gig (Left alone) hdc (RAID)
Maxtor 60 gig (Set for new partition) hdd (RAID)
Well, the first time I tried to load I set the language, network and then the partition and the screen after where you review all of the partitions (because I wasn't using Disk Druid) there was an anaconda error. The first time I didn't do anything about it and told it to ignore and it rebooted the system......The second time I tried to install, it went through all 5 disks with no problem........But when I tried to boot........NO GRUB, it just went straight through to windows.....
Well, I gave it a night because it had been a long day and I tackled it in the morning.......So the first thing that I did was popped a windows 98 disk in and cleaned the partitions off the designated Linux drives to get a fresh install......then before I rebooted I wiped the MBR encase there was anything weird going on there.......then I started setup again........
Well, this time, it was more of the same........I loaded it the first time and after the review of the drives after the Linux drive was designated, anaconda gave an error again........this time, I saved it (all 18 pages of it)......then the system rebooted and I tried to install again........and once again it took the installation and then I rebooted and the same thing happened.....it went straight to windows.....
Well, out of a little frustration, and a little desperation I went to the bios......once there I moved the Linux drive to the first drive to be loaded......Once I powered down and tried to boot from the drive I got an "Error Loading Operating System"....
I would have attached the anaconda error but most mail servers reject that......I can send it if anyone would like, but right now I'm not sure what to do......can anyone give me a direction?

When you install, you must tell anaconda to put grub in the MBR of
/dev/hda. You obviously haven't been doing that since Windows booted.
Remember, for grub to take over the boot process, it must be in the MBR
of the first disk your BIOS sees.

Yes, the USERID stuff in the various xinetd.d files is what forces the
IDENT stuff to run. Either delete the USERID bit (assuming there's
other stuff you want logged) or delete the lines alltogether to prevent
IDENT from being used.

Flipping them in the bios are not problem........
I never thought though, that I would have had to tell it to install because
I saw that screen and it had (don't quote me on this exactly)
Checked hdd/user/ - Default
Uncheck hda/winnt/
Everything had looked good to me because from my past experience, if I left
my hands off that option, it would just do it by default.....
That's why I was a little thrown......

Ok, sorry guys, now I'm really confused......
I ran an upgrade run of C4 setup and I told it to install a new
bootloader......Well, this time I took careful notice of the options that
were and weren't selected......
The first time I had it installed to the GRUB to the MBR and I made sure
that the advanced option at the top was set to install, then the table
showed:
Default Fedora Core Device
----------------------------------------------
Checked Fedora Core /dev/colgroup00/logvol00
Unchecked Other /dev/hda1
----------------------------------------------
Then I didn't set any password and I left the advanced option to be
checked.......on the next screen, it was set to write to the MBR of
/dev/hda1........and then I continued the process and rebooted......
........and it went straight to windows........
So I started the process over.......then I left the options the same for the
first two screens and then when I got to the advanced, I specified for the
GRUB to be written to /dev/hdd on the first sector.......from there I
continued setup as normal, then I switched the drives in bios......and
received the same error.......
"Error Loading Operating System"
So from where I'm sitting its just looking like the GRUB isn't being
loaded?......I would use that boot utility that was suggested previously,
but it would seem to me that I would get the same error upon loading
Redhat.....
I've just never seen the bootloader fail like this......has anyone?

Subject: Crontab issuing GET
Message-ID: <200603100222.k2A2McMF027789@mx3.redhat.com>
I need some help with the way RH Linux 9 handles it's crontab. I have need
to have a cron that issues a GET request.
I have tried the following in /etc/crontab:
15 3 * * * /usr/bin/GET http://path
And
15 3 * * * GET http://path
I've also tried creating a file in both /etc/cron.d and /var/spool/cron
containing each of these two commands.
The command works from a command line with any user I've tested it with. It
seems that the cron simply isn't excecuting, but I get nothing in the cron
daily report about it. Any clues what I'm missing?
Thanks,
Roger

update 2. There is a management server with a web interface that allows me
to restart blades, etc. The management server is also the DHCP server and
they are all on 192 addresses. The repository is on the management server
and there is a /tftpboot directory.
I am still having trouble with the services somewhere. When it boots up to
(blade 1 for example), I get messages saying that it is looking for
DHCP....then an ARP timeout. It does display the MAC address so the client
and server do connect. I am pretty sure the PXE part is set up right as
well.
I am not sure how to make ARP and/or TFTP not time out. Is TFTP too wimpy
to use for this? Should I be using ftp or http instead? I have tried via
http and also via ftp and both times they have failed because I don't quite
get it to find the right information.
Someone else set up the NFS mount and suppossedly that is working. I have
tried starting and stopping various services when it connects, since it
fails consistently anyway. I don't know a lick about NFS, so I don't know
how to check it or anything. I didn't change anything to do with NFS so it
should still be working.
Apparrently the system is set to use a /var/www/html/blade.cfg file rather
than a ks.cfg file. I am very sure the file entries are ok, since I have
looked at it a thousand times.
1. I am not too familiar with arp; basically I know that there is arp and
reverse arp and one of them has to do with getting ip addresses from known
hostnames and the other deals with the oppossite. I have seen the arp -a
command but I am not really sure what that does.
2. When I go into the GNOME desktop under something like System Tools ->
whatever -> 'Network Boot', and I click on a blade (1 for example) - I get a
box that is pointing to the (correct) ip address/blade.cfg. Before you tell
me to change it to /var/www/html/blade.cfg, I can tell you that the installs
die regardless of what is in that gui box. Hence the suspicion of some sort
of network services interfering.
3. Can anyone just tell me any services that I absolutely MUST have running
and of course any that are definitely a problem? That alone would be a
great place to continue from.
Thanks in advance
Marc

Thanks for the advice Rick. I tried it, without success. This seems to
be something that broke between RH9 and FC3 distros. I had it working on
RH9, but I did FC3 as a fresh install.
Seems to me that a *lot* of stuff broke between those releases:
Installer (anaconda drive geometry problems)
Sound
man page database not created
etc.
[bob at micron ~]$ cat .kermrc
SET CARRIER-WATCH OFF
SET LINE /dev/ttyS0
[bob at micron ~]$ kermit

I am curious about the philosophy of firewall management in Fedora.
While trying to configure sshd on my machine, I used
system-config-securitylevel, launched from the panel menu. ssh was
checked as a trusted service.
I couldn't connect from the remote machine, and the denied connections
were listed in /var/log/messages.
I ran firestarter, which didn't show port 22 open. I fixed that and now
all is well.
It is obvious that firestarter is much more robust for configuring security.
What is the purpose then, for the securitylevel applet? Or, why does it
not update the iptable properly? Aside from being able to configure SElinux,
it seems kind of useless.

There's a HELL of a lot different. You've skipped two entire releases:
RH9->FC1: FC1 was going to be RH10 before Red Hat split commercial and
"experimental" (FC) releases. Both based on 2.4 kernels, FC1 was a
significant departure regarding installation and such.
FC1->FC2: Jump from 2.4 to 2.6 kernel, along with all of the kernel
utilities, kernel modules, filesystem changes, switch to udev from
sysfs, a ton of stuff.
FC2->FC3: Incremental update. FC3 became the basis for RHEL 4.x.
FC3->FC4: Another incremental update. FC4 very stable.
(soon) FC4->FC5: Haven't looked at the differences docs yet.

Securitylevel has always been problematic in my view...so much so that
I've never used it to set up firewalls. I either roll my own or use
FireStarter.
Now they've grafted SELinux onto it. I also roll my own SEL stuff so
I can't speak to how well securitylevel deals with it, but it wouldn't
surprise me if it had issues there as well. However I'm a nerd, so I
like to do my own stuff. I'm sure there's a superior SEL package akin
to FireStarter...I've just never looked.

in similar case I helped me out
by switching sata in bios into "compatible mode" or "native mode"
Maybe this will help here, too.
As far as I found out,
mostly sata-controllers with builtin sw-bios-raid
(no real hw-raid), will bring RH into problems,
which other distros don't have.

no, don?t work, I tried all options in bios, using diferent sata ports: a
sata-II port named jbmicron and other sata port normal that needs sata_uli
to see drives.
if you want to know it , mu motherboard is asrock dual sataII.
thanks.

Ok, that worked. Now explain to me why doing it this way worked. It ends
up placing a file in /etc/cron.d with the exact same permissions of the
file I created manually.
So the manual which states:
" The cron daemon checks the etc/crontab file, the etc/cron.d/
directory, and the /var/spool/cron directory every minute for any
changes. If any changes are found, they are loaded into memory. Thus,
the daemon does not need to be restarted if a crontab file is changed."
Means that it picks up changes in /etc/cron.d to files that it's already
aware of, but will not pick up new files?
Thanks,
Roger

Try with crontab -e logging with your user ID and give

I need some help with the way RH Linux 9 handles it's crontab. I have
need to have a cron that issues a GET request. I have tried the
following in /etc/crontab: 15 3 * * * /usr/bin/GET http://path
And
15 3 * * * GET http://path
I've also tried creating a file in both /etc/cron.d and /var/spool/cron
containing each of these two commands. The command works from a command
line with any user I've tested it with. It seems that the cron simply
isn't excecuting, but I get nothing in the cron daily report about it.
Any clues what I'm missing?
Thanks,
Roger

I'm having a very strange problem when I boot - I normally boot
with a Run Level of 5 (X11) but yesterday and today when I boot

One time I got it to cancel out and got an error message
something like - invalid font path "unit/:7000" in my XF86config

Made some changes (like changing the Run Level to 3) and I can
get in but if I try to get into a graphical environment I get a

I am very short on disk space (shows some free space but I'm at

Suggestions?

Thanks everyone for your help - it turned out to be a lack of
disk space.... I cleaned things up and it now works.
BTW is there an easy way to set the run level other than editing
the file? I'm thinking of a set type command.

Over the last few years I've ripped all my CD's to my shared
drive to the OGG format. Before this I've used RealPlayer to
play them with on Windowz machines but the newest version of
RealPlayer doesn't seem to want to play OGG files. Has someone
gotten to RealPlayer or am I thinking of the wrong program.
Anyway, now I need an XP grade OGG player.

Lots of things break with low disk space. Since xfs uses Unix sockets
(which have a chunk on the filesystem) and the session manager writes
stuff to /tmp, it's no wonder you'd have issues with no disk space.
> BTW is there an easy way to set the run level other than editing

"telinit 3" would switch you to run level 3. Also appending the run
level to the end of the "kernel" line in grub works at boot:
...root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet 3
If you want to query the user at boot, you can add some code to the
/etc/rc.d/rc script around line 45 to ask the user. I've never done
this, but a potential bit of code would be:
# Get first argument. Set new runlevel to this argument.
[ -n "$argv1" ] && runlevel="$argv1"
# Query user for desired runlevel...
VAL=""
echo -n "Enter desired run level (1-5) [$runlevel]: "
read VAL
if [ X$VAL != "X" ]; then
runlevel=$VAL
fi
The first two lines are from the file. The remainder are courtesy of
yours truly.
CAUTION: I've not done this, so try it at your own peril! Make a copy
of the file before you edit it and have a rescue CD ready to pull this
junk out if it doesn't work. You have been warned!

You can't patch a kernel during install. Once you're installed, you
can add stuff to /etc/modprobe.conf or /etc/rc.d/rc.local to force
module loads. If you want to load a different kernel during install,
you'd need to respin the install CD/DVDs.

That's correct. cron caches the names of the files available when it
starts up and checks those. If you add a file, it needs to be
restarted.

Windows Media Player can play OGG files if you install the codecs for
them (I have several friends for whom this works just fine)
http://www.free-codecs.com/download/Vorbis_Ogg_ACM.htm
also, you may find other software (if such is your wont) via

Subject: Printing to printer on Windoze machine
Message-ID: <52619.192.168.1.1.1142948569.squirrel@sujan.hallikainen.org>
The next, in my long list of projects, is to be able to print from my FC4
laptop to a Xerox 950 printer on a Windoze ME machine on the network. I
set it up to emulate a Postscript printer following the instructions at
http://mywebpages.comcast.net/heretrythis/hp3100/psemu9x.html . I am able
to print to it as an Apple something or another from my wife's Windoze ME
laptop on the network, so it appears to be properly emulating postscript
and being shared.
On my laptop, I go to http://localhost:631/ and try to set up the printer.
I give the URI (which is where I think the problem is) as
smb://192.168.1.5/psemu where psemu is what the printer is named on the
Windoze machine (and how it shows up on my wife's laptop). When I try to
print to it, I get "ERROR: Connection failed with error
NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL".
Finally, if I use Konqueror, I CAN see the shared directories and files at
smb://192.168.1.5 .
So... what am I doing wrong?
THANKS!

Do I recall correctly that that is the web interface to CUPS admin?
If so, drop it like a hot potato. I tried to use it when changed
printers and never got the printer to print right. I even lodged a
bug report on CUPS. Then I used "system-config-printer" to set it up
and all became sweetness and light.

OK, I'll give that a try! Does the URI for the printer look right? Or is
there something more, perhaps, that needs to go between the IP address and
the printer name (psemu)?
THANKS!

I don't know about using the URI. In system-config-printer, you fill
in separate boxes for the printer name, hostname or IP address, and
workgroup name. I just tested it by configuring to print to my wife's
Epson printer hooked up to her XP box.

Hi Harold,
I think in the printer config program you need to put the printer as you
would on an smbclient line: //printerhost/printer
or maybe that was //printerhost/printer/queuename
At least those examples will get it started for you, right? My FC4 machine
is off at home and I run RH8.0 and RH9 at work so can't verify it.

Here's the low down. For school purposes we ended up having to purchase
a Windows machine to run the kids school software (AMD 64 processor so I
can't wait to assumeulate it into Linux). But as it's there I want to
get it working with the network. I've got SAMBA working on my server
(FC4) and have somehow managed to map some drives (late last night, hope
there are still mapped today). My next step is to set up Email as I
have my server picking up email from all the places the kids have email
accounts and delivering it to Linux mail boxes. I haven't set up
Outlook for a few years but if I remember correctly it wasn't too
difficult but then in the older version of windows and mapping a drive
under SAMBA wasn't too difficult either.
Does anyone know of a good website (with pretty pictures) on how to do
this or can someone talk me out of (or through) doing this?
Thanks,
Brad

if the email is stored in a standard pop box just point outlook to
the machine that has the pop mailboxes. Use the ip address of the machine if you
want to make it really simple. You could also modify the stupid
c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\host file on the windows machine to use
the fqdn of the linux box - but why bother ?
the two key points here are:
1. The linux box stores email in a standard pop3 mailbox.
2. Use the ip address of the linux box in outlook so the program
can find the machine on your network.

I'm not sure I'm clear on what you're missing. I take it you want to
be able to pick up mail from the Linux mail server from the XP box.
You should have dovecot, the POP3 and IMAP server, installed on the
mail server. Check that it's turned on with "service dovecot
status". I think it's correctly configured out of the box, but check
it to be sure.
I imagine Outhouse^H^H^H^H^Hlook configures like most clients. You
need to set the name or IP address of the mail server from which to
pick up the mail, and specify POP3 or IMAP protocol. Presumably, you
also need to set the outgoing server to be the same. Back on the
linux box, you need to have the SMTP server (usually sendmail) accept
mail from your local network. Can't help you there - I use postfix.
These may help:

Another possibility would be to run SquirrelMail (and Apache or other web
server, dovecot for imap, and sendmail for mail exchange) on the linux
machine, then just point a browser at that machine. That's what I'm doing.

Respinning a distribution CD set is not a trivial task. Unless you know
what you're doing, I wouldn't recommend it. If you want to try it,
here's a link that gives some details:

Hmmm. Nothing is ever simple. The system-config-printer help says it'll
scan the network and find shared printers. It didn't. My wife's Windoze ME
did. I then put in the Workgroup (HomeNet). For server, I tried Sony (the
name of the machine), 192.168.1.5 (its IP address), and smb://192.168.1.5.
For share, I used PSEMU (which is what the share is set to, and my wife's
Windoze machine finds it under that name). For username, I tried "harold"
since I log into the desktop with the printer with that name, and as
guest, as suggested in the help file. I set the password that worked on my
wife's laptop. So far, nothing works. The dialog box keeps coming back.
I'll plug this machine into the network at work tomorrow and see if it
finds anything there. Any more ideas?
THANKS!

Hi dears,
I have a Red Hat AS 4 in my company, and my problem are:
I installed the RHL and everything functioned perfectly but, later
that I executed update simply it stopped to function the installation
of packages for the CD-ROM. It mounts the CD-ROM and when it goes to
make the reading of the packages disassembles the CD-ROM automatically
and asks for the CD again, repeating the problem indefinitely.
How i can solve this problem?
P.S.: I use a AMD64 version over SunFire V40z.

Hi,
I have an Intel Server (Jarrell) with onboard SATA RAID (configured as a mirror), along with a PC floppy and IDE CD-ROM. When I install RedHat Enterprise Linux v3 from CD I choose "linux dd" at the "boot:" prompt. When it prompts me "Do you have a driver disk?" (for my onboard SATA RAID) I answer YES and it says loading driver from "/dev/hdd"??? Why is trying to load from /dev/hdd? I want it to load from /dev/fd0. I have never seen this.
Please help.

The new server that I built has a 754 AMD Sempron along with a Biostart
motherboard. I installed RHEL AS v.4 on it last night and during the
initial install process it says that it couldn't locate something and it was
going to assume that it was going to run at 33Mhz FSB. Seeing that it spit
out a bunch of things before it goes to the graphical interface for the
install I couldn't really see what the reason was for making it go at such a

that speed and if it is, how do I correct it?

"executed update"? You mean "up2date"? If so, up2date doesn't check
the CD, it only contacts the up2date servers at Red Hat.
You need to clarify what you're asking about.

Please wrap your lines at 72 characters. Single line messages are very
difficult to read.
Are you certain it was trying to read /dev/hdd? Did the floppy light
come on? Are you certain the message wasn't "loading driver
FOR /dev/hdd"?

Check the output of "dmesg" and the /var/log/dmesg file. Odds are that
the probe of the IDE interface came up with 33MHz for PIO operations
(pretty normal). If you are SURE that your IDE will work at 66MHz for
PIO, then you can append "idebus=66" to the end of the kernel line in
your grub.conf file.

You will 1) want to make sure you have the latest bios from your vendor and
2) make sure the timings on the motherboard are set properly for your cpu -
clearly they seem to not be set properly - most modern motherboards set timings
in the bios.
A "load optimal default" operation in the bios might also be another shortcut.

He's trying to Add/Remove Programs and his box won't recognize the CD.
He must have updated at least one version
since he installed., because I am having the same trouble. I installed
Update 2, but now up2date has me up to Update 3.
My box doesn't recognize the RHEL AS 4 Update 2 CDs, and it exited with
error when I tried to give it Update 3 CDs.
He could always download the packages from the Red Hat Network and
install the rpms from the command line.
rpm -ivh package-name

In-Reply-To:

Message-ID:
I had a lot of problems with the mobo already. The BIOS was hosed when I
got it. When I would try and change the boot settings it would only allow
me to be in there for about 5-10 seconds before it would either reboot or
freeze with random characters. Once I flashed the BIOS and cleared the CMOS
I was able to go in and load the optomized defaults and change the boot
order. I still however get random blackouts on the machine. Anytime the
VGA cable is moved slightly, USB cable becomes unplugged, or I take the
ethernet cable out of the NIC the monitor goes to sleep and the computer is
non-responsive and then I have to reboot it in order for things to work
properly again. It does have the NVidia chipset, installing the drivers
from them maybe correct this problem? I am also running the x86_64 version
of the OS. Is it as stable as the x86 version?

Hello, I fixed my problem. When I added a floppy drive to my system
it showed up in the boot order (even thought I did not want to boot from it)
so I figured the system saw the floppy drive but once I saw RedHat asking me for
/dev/hdd for my driver disk I looked at the Floppy Controller in the BIOS and it
was DISABLED! Since it was disabled, RedHat did not see a floppy so it
must have defaulted to /dev/hdd. I enabled the floppy controller and now everything
works as expected.
Thanks for everyone's response.

When I install RedHat Enterprise Linux v3 from CD I choose "linux dd" at the "boot:" prompt. When it prompts me "Do you have a driver disk?" (for my onboard SATA RAID) I answer YES and it says loading driver from "/dev/hdd"??? Why is trying to load from /dev/hdd? I want it to load from /dev/fd0. I have never seen this.
Please wrap your lines at 72 characters. Single line messages are very
difficult to read.
Are you certain it was trying to read /dev/hdd? Did the floppy light
come on? Are you certain the message wasn't "loading driver
FOR /dev/hdd"?

Subject: Installing rpm's that are not from RHN
Message-ID:
Hello,
I was wondering if downloading rpms and installing from a site such as
http://www.alsa-project.org/ posed any risk to a RHEL desktop computer?
The past several kernels the module for my sound card (CS4236) has been
left out. The only way to correct the issue is to go to alsa org and
download the files and go through the steps. Is the above site a
"trusted" site to RHEL users or would I be better off not trusting any
files unless they come from RHN? I searched and the RHN doesn't seem to
have the files needed.

Ah, interesting. Have you squawked this anomaly to RH yet? I'd
definitely bugzilla that. It should still recognize the media. I don't
ever recall Add/Remove giving a tinker's cuss about the media other than
there being a "/media/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS" directory. The checksums
shouldn't matter at all.
As I said, interesting.

Same source code, just built with the x86_64 compilers and such.
You might get into that BIOS and see if you can kill the APM and/or
ACPI. That might be causing part of your problem. Try booting with
the "noapm" and "noacpi" options as well.
Since you've had so many problems with the mobo, I'd really suggest you
return the damned thing and get a different one. I'm using the ABit
Opteron mobo (can't recall the model as it's at home and I'm in the
office today). However, it works a treat.

Installing "foreign" RPMs won't harm the machine. You should, however,
download Alsa's GPG key and make sure the RPMs you do download have the
same GPG key. You should also be aware that up2date will NOT
automatically check for updates from Alsa. You'll have to do that
manually. It would also be of benefit if you could tell us which
version of RHEL you were running.
I find it weird that the CS4236 is not supported in the newer kernels.
Are you certain that support for that card hasn't been rolled into
another driver so that the new driver handles multiple cards? If you're
sure that didn't occur, you should squawk your concerns to bugzilla so
RH can put the support back in.

What I did for my new HP is to start at
http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/ibm.html and find a model that looks
close to what you have (I see the X32 is not there). For the HP, I had to
use the ndis wrapper.
Good luck!

Hey Rick,
I have Red Hat Desktop v. 4
It has always puzzled me too that some kernels seem to leave out the module for my sound card. I have posted in the past asking who makes the decision to leave it out, no one seems to know. If a new driver for the cs4236 has been rolled into another drive I have no idea how to find out.
Here's what I do know:
If the following folders and files are not included with the kernel, I have no sound. If they are included I have sound.
Path: kernel/sound/isa/cs423x
Files: snd-cs4231-lib.ko, snd-cs4236.ko and snd-cs4236-lib.ko
The past few kernels did't have the files and I had to go to ALSA site to download the missing files. If you believe the leaving of these files out is a bug, I will be more than happy to report it.
Thanks!
David

I've installed loads of third party RPMs that are not from RHN and I
have never had a problem. I've also compiled and installed plenty of
source rpm's and tarballs and never had a problem.
To be on the safe side make sure the checksums match.
In answer to your question...No... Non-RHN RPM's will not compromise or
damige your computer.

Message-ID:
I've finally got more time to play with this XP thing and I'm
still not getting it. First I want to thank Ted, Bob and Harold
for their suggestions - I guess I just couldn't follow them.
Anyway, I've got a family XP box that almost everyone in the
house uses (but me) I've got a FC4 box in the basement that uses
Fetchmail to go out and grab emails off the web (lots of various
sites for the same people) and brings them
home for people to read (/var/spool/mail/loginname) - they use to
use my Linux box (or notebook or a different linux machine) but now
they want to use the XP machine (teenagers, don't know what to do
with them). Anyway they have Outlook on the XP machine and everyone
has their own account.
I can now map drives from the FC4 box to the XP. I can also
print to the printers attached to different Linux machines. But
I can't figure out how toget Outlook to read the mail on the FC4
machine.
What I'd really like is the ability to leave the mail on the FC4
machine if possible - that way I can back it up. But if that's
not availabe I'll live with that. They will just have to learn
that when they use the notebook (linux) they will not have access
to their mail.
So, this is what I believe I need:
Either the ability to recognize the login name on the XP box or
to tie it to the parameters of Outlook under each login (I
believe this is the way it works) but how do I tell Outlook where
to look? I tried \\192.168.1.55\var\log\mail\sam - for the
outlook setup under Sam but that didn't seem to find the box. I
also tried variations of that.
I haven't even tried to get it to send email but that should be
easy as in the past I've just use everyones comcast account and
didn't rely on the mail server to do anything.
Any help would be appreciated.

The easiest way for you to do this is to install an IMAP server on the
FC4 machine, and connect to that from the XP box with a suitable
username and password.
You can also read these emails locally on the FC4 box by pointing your
mail client at localhost.
The easiest IMAP server for Fedora is called dovecot
yum install dovecot
chkconfig dovecot on
service dovecot start
should be about all you need.
then point the outlook machines at your fedora box as an incoming
mailserver, using IMAP, port 143. The mail will remain on the fedora
box. Just be certain you have opened up port 143 on that box to hosts
on your local network (or preferably, just the XP box)

Brad -
just for testing try this.
1. in outlook express go to tools email accounts or whatever
ms calls it these days.
2. look for the server setup area
3. in the pop3 server name use
192.168.1.55
4. in the username password setting use
the login name (from the FC4 box) and password.
5. Under advanced select keep mail on server
Then see if you can receive the email from the FC4
box.
email using tcp/ip not smb that is why it is simple. Your
FC4 box is like many email servers on the internet. They work
the same.
for a simple test on the windows machine get to the dos prompt.
they type:
telnet 192.168.1.55 110
that should log you in to the FC4 box on port 110 (which is used
for pop3 mail) you should get some kind of response.

Stuart,
Thank you very much I will do that - I know dovcot was suggested
before but I didn't want to have another thing running on my
computer if I already had something to doing it. It's happened
before and I ended up with two things fighting to do the same
thing.
I'll follow your instructions and give it a shot.
Thanks,
Brad

Thanks again everyone for the help - turns out dovecot was
already on the machine just not running. My family now has email
and I can get back to using Linux.

PS - I haven't yet played with what you sent but next time I can
get on the XP machine that's what I'll do.

Still fighting this! I find it interesting that Konqueror can find the
shared files on the WinME machine, but printer config cannot find the
shared printer, that my wife's WinME machine can find. I'm sure eventually
I'll get printing through smb working (with your help!). Another
possibility I'm wondering about it IPP. I wonder if there's an IPP
interface (server?) that would run on WinME. It would watch the
appropriate port and send stuff to the printer.
THANKS!

Hi Harold
I found a TCP/IP client for Win98 that allows printing to an LPR/LPD
printer's IP address. I don't know if that will help, but if so, let me
know and I could email it to you privately.

IMAP not POP3, surely? (to meet the requirement quoted above)

if you set up your outlook accounts to use your FC4 box as a POP3
server, be aware that they will download all their email messages to
the XP box (and remove them from the FC4 box) whenever you check your
email (unless you take steps to prevent this). They are then stored
somewhere seemingly random on your windows box (temporary internet
files somewhere, IIRC. Dunno, haven't used windows for email in ages!)
in a horrible proprietary format.
if you want the messages to remain on the FC4 box you will have to use
IMAP, which stores messages on the server and copies message
headers/bodies across the local net work on demand, keeping track of
their read/unread status on the server. So if you connect from a
different box to the same server you see all the same messages.
Using IMAP should just be only slightly different in Outlook settings
(just choose the IMAP rather than POP option when you name your
incoming mail server).
the telnet test for IMAP is similar to the above except that it uses a
different port:
telnet 192.168.1.55 143
incidentally, the telnet prompt sometimes confuses people. If you use
it, to cancel the session type
and ] together, followed by 'quit '

Thanks! I think that's the "wrong end" of the system. As I understand it,
the client would let the Win98 machine print to an IPP printer. I'd like
something (a server?) that allows a printer on the Windows machine to be
printed to by other IPP clients on the network (or get my smb printing to
work!).
Thanks for the offer!

Things aren't that horrible . Let's assume Brad creates an Account
( In Outlook Express ) named "Comcast" . Then if he right clicks on
Comcast he will be presented with a set of options . One of them
is Server . Selecting Server will open a new tab . At that tab he
just has to selelct Leave message on Server or to delete it after
"n" number of days . That's all . The mail remains on the server should he
wish to do so .
They are then stored

Well yes they are stored in a propiertary format ( with Microsoft Windows
that happens always ) . Now somewhere is :
Document and Settings / Brad / Application Data / Microsoft /Outlook Express
or Documents and Settings / Brad /Application Data /Outlook Express .
It's in there he can't miss it should he ever want to find it ( I prefer
to use Linux for email so i don't recall the exact directory , it's
under Application Data though for certain ) . A Better way though would
be to download the windows version of Mozilla who would be pretty happy to
convert that thing to the Mozilla file format ( the original file
remains intact ) .
Now if you consider that the Mozilla file format remains the same
regardless if you
run the Windows or the Linux version , you neutralize the propiertary
format
that Microsoft Outlook Express stores the email .

Kostas

never got what you are trying to do. I have tried everything, but was never
able to do it, but I can suggest something simple get a print server. I was
hoping I could get mine to work from your effort!!!

Drat. Okay, I use SMB/Samba printing to win98 boxes all the time. The
'trick' is to point the Linux print queue to //host/sharname in the first
setup step.
That was an annoying 'undocumented feature' of the setup that took me a
while to figure out.

Now they are not stored randomly . They are stored in a very specific
place . The
correct directory is :
C:\Documents and Settings \ Stuart\ Local Settings \ Identities \
an alphanumeric string \ Microsoft \ Outlook Express \ Inbox.dbx ; for
the Inbox Folder .
On the Above Path Stuart stands for the login name .

fair enough, I stand corrected.
My last experience with outlook was several years ago on Win98, where I
believe that isn't the case.
I do stand by what I said about IMAP versus POP, however.
Although you *can* leave messages on your POP server, it takes extra
configuration to do so.
When you then read pop email from a different client, all the emails
that you previously downloaded will still be marked as unread. IIRC pop
doesn't store that info... please correct me if I have this wrong, but
this has been my experience with every pop server I have tried.

Stuart

Subject: Crash during root file system check on boot
Message-ID: <4427EFDC.60009@univ-perp.fr>
Hello,
I run Redhats AS4.0 (2.6.9-34.ELsmp) with lvm2 .
My system crashes during file system check on boot :
/dev/VolGroup00/Logvol00 is mounted e2fsck : cannot continue, aborting.
give root password for maintenance.
Then, if i use vgchange -a y, and init 3, i cant mount all filesystems
and all seems OK.
I tried to boot on cdrom in rescue mode in order to check root file
system but i have same message.
This file system chech occurs running /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit script.
grub.conf is like this :
title Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (2.6.9-34.ELsmp)

initrd /initrd-2.6.9-34.ELsmp.img
How can i solve this problem ?
Many thanks.

So, at this point, did you give the root password and then
e2fsck -y /dev/VolGroup00/Logvol00
If not, try that.

Yes i tried :
e2fsck -y /dev/VolGroup00/Logvol00
running fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause severe filesystem damage.
Are you sure : YES
...
Recovering journal .. clean
And when i reboot, it is the same :
Mar 27 17:15:46 maja fsck: /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 is mounted.
Mar 27 17:15:46 maja fsck: e2fsck: Cannot continue, aborting.

Ah, I think I see the problem. It would appear that it's an ISA card,
not a PCI card--at least the kernel driver designers think so. If
that's the case, then I'm not as surprised it isn't present in the
kernel. ISA is considered "legacy" and is slowly being phased out.
That doesn't help you any, but I suspect that Alsa will continue to have
the driver for some time. You may want to consider changing to a
PCI-based card in the future, however, to prevent this from happening.
One must modernize, you know!

Subject: HAL daemon hangs RHEL 4 Update 2 box @ bootup
Message-ID:
Basically what happens is that I do an 'everything' install (required for
this machine) and all goes well, then when it does its first full bootup it
is hung forever. Obviously the box *does* boot up fully, because I can ssh
into it if I wait a little bit. But I am wondering how to kill HAL,
whatever that is. Actually I don't want to just kill it, I want to
permanently disable it if there is a way to do that. So my options are:
- Any kernel parameters to pass at the same time? Already have 'rhgb
quiet' appended (install did it not me);
- When I ssh in, can anyone tell me how to turn it all off via CLI? I know
how to do kill -9 but I don't know enough about init and related bootup
files. I do not want to just do a ps -ef| grep HAL* and kill it by process
number. Instead I want to remove it but I would also like to know what the
heck it is, for curiosity's sake.
- Does anyone know of a specific HAL daemon rpm package that I could just
remove? I do know how to do that.
- Which brings me to the 'everything' install. Is this really safe to do?
I am given req's to do that with this machine, but ordinarily I would want
to do a somewhat conservative type of install, adding in only what I think I
need, or might need. SELinux is off on this machine, as is the firewall so
I know they aren't interfering.
- Oh, one more thing, please don't tell me to just do up2date. I am on a
disconnected DoD network and I cannot just connect up to the RHN / Internet
for that for both security related and procedural reasons.
Thanks in advance,
Marc

HAL: Hardware Abstraction Layer
Description: This is a daemon for collecting and maintaining information
about hardware from several sources. See
http://www.freedesktop.org/Software/hal
Summary: It allows Hotplugging of items such as thumb drives, etc.
Disable it permanently: chkconfig --del haldaemon
Turn it off for this session: service haldaemon stop
chkconfig levels: 345 98 02
You might wish to read up on it before completely disabling it.
It's what makes my FC4 and ubuntu boxes so much better than anything else
for card reading, etc.

Indeed you are correct again . This noon i tried to download my email
from my Windows Installation, while yesterday i have left the messages on
the server , well tthey downloaded everything , they reported the entire
number of messages as new , while there were not . Since the POP3 protocol
is platform independent we can safely say that indeed the POP3 protocol has
no mechanism of differentiating new from old mails . Despite that
yesterday night
i have read the POP3 RFC from rfc-editor.org and indeed there was no
reference
to a mechanism that would clasify messages to new and old ones .

That's not entirely true, Kostas. The pop server can (and most do) add
an X-UID header line to _viewed_ messages. When the server scans the
inbox the next time, the presence of an X-UID header line means the
message has been previously viewed (and is therefore "old").

Can you have someone reset it? When it comes back in, turn HTTPD off and
then change the number of servers it allows so when they are all used, they
don't use all the CPU. I had to lower my total available HTTPD servers.
That's helped my performance a bit. At least the perception is that it's
helped.

The end of line return controls charactors different for Linux and M.S.
windoz.
There is a command line program dos2unix that will convert the EOL charactors
though.

Run dos2unix against it. If you don't have it do a
search on google for it. I believe it is included in
most Linux versions.

That's why you should download and upload text files in text (ASCII)
mode and not "bin" or "image" mode.
Try reuploading using text mode:

Caveat: Be careful using dos2unix or unix2dos. They will change the
permissions on the file to 644 REGARDLESS of what your umask is or what
the original permissions of the file were.
This is NOT mentioned anywhere in the documentation. I've been bit by
it before.

Just keep trying or get someone to hard boot it. You should also
put the following tweaks in your /etc/sysctl.conf file to tweak
HTTP session handling:
net.ipv4.tcp_fin_timeout = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog = 2048
net.ipv4.tcp_syn_retries = 3
net.ipv4.tcp_tw_recycle = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_tw_reuse = 1
These will force faster recycling of the TCP connections and will help
block some DDOS attacks.

If you can mount the windows file system (or disk) then use the mcopy
command from the mtools package. It will ensure the correct EOL is
always maintained. Or if you cannot mount the windows file system mount
a floppy in linux and mcopy to the floppy and edit the file in windows
from the floppy and then mcopy the file back to linux from the floppy.
mcopy [linux-file] [windows directory/filename]
or mcopy [linux-file] [/mnt/floppy/filename] (or wherever you have
mounted the floppy)
mcopy [windows-file] [linux directory/filename]
or after editing the file on the floppy in windows
mcopy [/mnt/floppy/filename] [linux-directory/filename]
All done from the linux machine. I always use this method and have never
had a problem.
man mtools for further information.
Just as a matter of curiosity, why do you want to edit a linux config
file on windows? Linux has a heap of good text editors.

there are many ways to achieve this...
you could try
sed -i.dos 's/\r$//' filename
(replace with the standard ) - the original should be
backed up as filename.dos, just for safety

Hi all,
I've just said "happy birthday to me" and grabbed myself a Dell Inspiron
6000. Tasty toy, I must say.
I just put FC 5 on it with almost no difficulties at all. Only two
problems popped up actually.
1. I had to go to livna and grab a firmware update to get the wlan
device to fire up. But that was just a case of install, reboot,
activate.
2. I'm only being offered a resolution of 800x600 even though the 15.4
inch UltraSharp WSXGA+ is capable of (1680x1050).
Anybody know how to get FC5 to use all this capability?

usually this is due to the system-config-display tool not recognising
your monitor properly. On my dell d800 I had to reconfigure this as well.
so, run 'system-config-display'
you should see 'unknown monitor'
click on the hardware tab, configure your monitor.
you can find a suitable model under
Generic LCD -> LCD Panel 1680x1050
then choose the resolution/colour depth you want on the Settings tab.
click OK
exit
log out of X.
or preferably, guarantee a reconfig by
CTRL-ALT-F1
log in as root
init 3
CTRL-ALT-F1
init5;exit
regards
Stuart

Subject: PAM troubleshooting
Message-ID: <1143737889.9875.257927552@webmail.messagingengine.com>
I am trying to troubleshoot what appears to be a PAM issue with LDAP
authentication. I can authenticate find with ldap, but when I try to su
- I get an access denied with nothing logged in any of the log files.
This seems to happen when the "pam_check_host_attr" is on in the
ldap.conf file. The only way I can get around this is to change
"required" to "sufficient" in the account section of
/etc/pam.d/system-auth for the pam_unix module (/etc/pam.d/su uses
system-auth). This is required on some systems and on identically
configure systems it is not. I would like to enable debugging for pam.
I have tried to add the debug option to the end of the pam_unix and
pam_ldap module, but I don't seem to see any more syslog output than
when it was not there. I also added the following line to syslog.conf:
" *.debug,authpriv.* /var/log/mydebug"
I even tried "*.* /var/log/mydebug" with no increase in pam logging.
Is something else required to get pam debug messages?
Thanks

First, verify via "df" that /home has enough space to hold the 200MB
file. You'd be surprised at how often that bites people.
Second, verify you don't have quotas set for the user you're logging in
as.
Third, if you're using some species of Windows FTP client, be aware that
some have a limit as to how big a file you can upload. Try again with a
command-line FTP client or something like CuteFTP.
Fourth, see if there's anything in /var/log/messages regarding the
transfer.

Hi all,
I need to upgrade my RHEL3 and RHEL4 system to the latest service level. I
have done this by a kickstart file in upgrade mode through network. The
upgrade is successful, but it can not allow me to perform some additional
setup(such as updating dirvers or sending messages to other machine)
besides updating rpms. In install mode I can put some scripts in %pre and
%post sections in kickstart file. but in upgrade mode both of these two
sections will be ignored. Is there any way that allow me to run some
scripts after the upgrade finishes and before system reboots. I really
appreciate your help. Thank you!

Message-ID: <9F9AB50444D7084C81C27B730AD84D9E050396@viewer.it-centre.ru>
Is the size of partially transferred file the same for both attempts?
Also, I sometimes have seen FTP sessions closed by the server due to
network problems between the server and the client (these problems
caused timeouts at the server side).

Hi,
I believe your problem might be originating from the Windows server end.
You may have to modify the registry to get around this problem. The
following artcile clearly explains what you need to do:

Note that the Kickstart manual specificially says:
--------------------- CUT HERE -------------------------------------
For kickstart upgrades, the following items are required:
* Language
* Language support
* Installation method
* Device specification (if device is needed to perform
installation)
* Keyboard setup
* The upgrade keyword
* Boot loader configuration
If any other items are specified for an upgrade, those items will be
ignored (note that this includes package selection).
--------------------- CUT HERE -------------------------------------
So you're out of luck running %pre or %post stuff during upgrades. The
theory is that the items have already been installed and configured, and
the upgrade is primarily to update the code--not the configs. That's
also why the package selection code is also disabled during upgrades...
you can only upgrade things already installed. Dependencies are handled
if a new version of something requires another RPM, but you can't
_install_ new or additional packages.
If you must run stuff after the upgrade but before the system is fully
up, you'll have to boot in single-user mode and do your thing there.
Sorry!

Are these settings 'safe' for RH8.0 and RH9? I guess a better question is,
are these settings used by 8.0 or 9?
