I don't know if anti-spoofing is available with IP tables - but this is the sort of thing that you will be looking for. For example, Checkpoint Firewall-1 provides antispoofing by demanding that the administrator teach it all the subnets that sit behind each firewall. CyberGuard firewalls work the same out from the rote table.

Fortunately I did > not switch yet. I finally got some insight into this. Over the weekend, some of the entitlements for Redhat 9 expired. Instead of doing the logical thing, and simply removing the entitlements from the affected systems, what RHN did was randomly remove entitlements from already-entitled systems and assign those entitlements to the recently expired servers. Redhat customer support claims the bug that caused this problem has been fixed, however to sort out the fallout from this you apparently have to a) delete the no-longer enetitled systems from RHN, then b) delete the systems that have lost their entitlements, then c) add back the systems that are still supposed to be entitled. A huge runaround, IMHO.

Since we are in big troubles: Is there ANYONE who knows how to workaround ? The problem occurs with both RHEL V3 and FC 1 Servers or Clients at current patchlevels. Tru64 NFS-Client aborts too. The problem blocks mailbox-locking and other locking processes, or makes them unreliable at least... NFS Filesystems are exported rw,sync and no_root_squash. NFS Mount is done in all cases as V3 with wsize=rsize=8192 over UDP.

As far as I understand it, I need to upgrade my version of glib, atk, gtk and pango. The problems have culminated after following some advice from a Linux discussion group. I moved the existing files from /usr/lib/pkgconfig (atk.pc, gtk+-2.0.pc, gtk+.pc, pangoft2.pc, pangox.pc, glib-2.0.pc, gtk-engines-2.pc, gtk-thinice-engine-2.pc, pango.pc, glib.pc, gtkhtml-1.1.pc, gtk+-x11-2.0.pc, pangoxft.pc) and /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig (atk.pc glib-2.0.pc pangoft2.pc pango.pc pangoxft.pc pangox.pc) to a temporary directory then used ./configure glib-2.4.0 --prefix=/usr/ (for example), which was apparently what I had to do to get the packages to work. I am afraid that I do not know what '--prefix=/usr/' means - or, indeed, what configure does or means, although I assume it configures a package ready for installing it. Then I did make and make install and after a lot of whirring, there were no error messages (but loads of warnings saying something like 'warning: somefilename seems to be moved'), so I assumed it had worked. There were a couple of minor changes to the overall display (right-click menus, taskbar separators, etc) that I noticed. Anyway, to cut a long story short, what appears to have happened is that the Linux graphical login screen for KDE has somehow got corrupted. What now appears on the screen, when I restart the computer, is a dialogue box saying: ^_z I choose No and the same box is displayed again. If I choose Yes the same box appears but instead of Yes it shows RGI(upside down L)CGS and instead of No it shows . If I continue to choose the Yes option (RGI, etc) it eventually comes up with a box saying: Failed to start the display server several times in a short time period; disabling display: 3 and what I assume is OK written as RGGzuGGS. I just worked out that if I start Linux in runlevel 3, I can log in and then type startx and here I am. What I would really like to do is get it back to how it was before I installed glib, atk, gtk [I am certain it is gtk that is causing the problems] and pango - I have already run make clean for each and copied the copies back to /usr/lib/pkgconfig and /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig and re-installed KDE and its various components from the Red Hat CD. It hasn't made any difference at all. Can anyone help? Also, could someone recommend a good, free resource for Linux. What I would really like to know is how the directory structure is organised, where packages go when you install them, and so on. Also, where the documentation is for Perl and PHP. Sorry it is so long. I just thought you'd probably prefer all the facts. Thanks very much.

As far as I understand it, I need to upgrade my version of glib, atk, gtk and pango. The problems have culminated after following some advice from a Linux discussion group. I moved the existing files from /usr/lib/pkgconfig (atk.pc, gtk+-2.0.pc, gtk+.pc, pangoft2.pc, pangox.pc, glib-2.0.pc, gtk-engines-2.pc, gtk-thinice-engine-2.pc, pango.pc, glib.pc, gtkhtml-1.1.pc, gtk+-x11-2.0.pc, pangoxft.pc) and /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig (atk.pc glib-2.0.pc pangoft2.pc pango.pc pangoxft.pc pangox.pc) to a temporary directory then used ./configure glib-2.4.0 --prefix=/usr/ (for example), which was apparently what I had to do to get the packages to work. I am afraid that I do not know what '--prefix=/usr/' means - or, indeed, what configure does or means, although I assume it configures a package ready for installing it. Then I did make and make install and after a lot of whirring, there were no error messages (but loads of warnings saying something like 'warning: somefilename seems to be moved'), so I assumed it had worked. There were a couple of minor changes to the overall display (right-click menus, taskbar separators, etc) that I noticed. Anyway, to cut a long story short, what appears to have happened is that the Linux graphical login screen for KDE has somehow got corrupted. What now appears on the screen, when I restart the computer, is a dialogue box saying: ^_z I choose No and the same box is displayed again. If I choose Yes the same box appears but instead of Yes it shows RGI(upside down L)CGS and instead of No it shows . If I continue to choose the Yes option (RGI, etc) it eventually comes up with a box saying: Failed to start the display server several times in a short time period; disabling display: 3 and what I assume is OK written as RGGzuGGS. I just worked out that if I start Linux in runlevel 3, I can log in and then type startx and here I am. What I would really like to do is get it back to how it was before I installed glib, atk, gtk [I am certain it is gtk that is causing the problems] and pango - I have already run make clean for each and copied the copies back to /usr/lib/pkgconfig and /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig and re-installed KDE and its various components from the Red Hat CD. It hasn't made any difference at all. Can anyone help? Also, could someone recommend a good, free resource for Linux. What I would really like to know is how the directory structure is organised, where packages go when you install them, and so on. Also, where the documentation is for Perl and PHP. Sorry it is so long. I just thought you'd probably prefer all the facts. Thanks very much.

The only way to move data to/from this system is via CD or tape. Obviously, this system cannot run up2date. Is it possible for me to export the list of installed rpms (rpm -qa) on the private box and use my online RHEL box run up2date and essentially proxy all the requests? It's pretty easy for me to take the package list (732 rpms) and force downloads via some simple scripts. But that seems wasteful.

I've been trying to use the RHN web interface, but so far only one or two updates are installed and the rest fail with "Failed: There was a communication error talking to the server" (code 21) I'm at a loss for troubleshooting this error.

What model SpeedTouch do you have? What colour is it? These details are important, as there is a silver version of the SpeedTouch 330, (officially known as the Rev 4.00 version) which has only working under Linux for a few months now and requires more than just a wizard to set it up. In any case, the first step(s) would be to visit the Linux driver sites. There is two versions: The Kernel Module[1] and the User Programs[2]. To complicate matters more, they both share the same mailing list. If your modem is soilver, start going through the list archives for the keywords "silver and "rev 4.00". Personally, I use the kernel module with my silver SpeedTouch modem. Of course, if you'd prefer to skip the technical steps I had to follow, there's a script[3] that automates the setup of the user program option, it should be mature my now... > Any advice would be appreciated on how to get up > and running, but keep it simple please, as I've > only been Linux mounted 6 months, and I'm not > yet that proficient.

What colour is it? Hi Conall, It is indeed Silver........ Mandrake wasnt so bad for the speedtouch..... setup your ISP, username and password, and it would install the speedtouch RPM, PPP and that was it. All you had to do yourself was copy mgmt.o across to the speedtouch directory.... But the new release of Mandrake 10 totally screwed up as far as Speedtouch is concerned..... so thats why I fancy a change. So it looks like RH is gonna be fun then! :-) JRH ----- Original Message ----- From: "Conall O'Brien" To: "Red Hat Network Users List" Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2004 12:04 AM Subject: Re: [rhn-users] RH9 & USB ADSL > _______________________________________________ > rhn-users mailing list > rhn-users at redhat.com > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/rhn-users > From kassim.k at glensquare.com Thu May 20 16:20:05 2004 From: kassim.k at glensquare.com (Kassim Kasmani) Date: Thu, 20 May 2004 12:20:05 -0400 Subject: [rhn-users] Up2date - cant upgrade In-Reply-To: <005101c43e7f$3f8b50c0$d9d16b51@i7l5g6> References: <005001c43de6$dd11f310$cf4a0352@i7l5g6> <20040519230424.GA15979@ns5.nestdesign.com> <005101c43e7f$3f8b50c0$d9d16b51@i7l5g6> Message-ID: <40ACDAB5.8080509@glensquare.com> I get the following error when I try to upgrade up2date: [root at localhost arch]# rpm -U up2date-4.2.16-1.i386.rpm error: up2date-4.2.16-1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: BAD, key ID db42a60e error: up2date-4.2.16-1.i386.rpm cannot be installed Any ideas?

The main problem with the silver version is that the firmware file has to be loaded into a different memory address of the modem, so mgmt.o won't work. You're best bet is to use the SpeedTouchConf[1] script. I tried using it back in March but ended up reporting bugs in it instead. I finally got my silver modem working my using a cvs version of the kernel module, but it took me 2 months to work out the simple steps to get it to work. Try the script and see if it helps automate the process. If it doesn't work, mail me back off the list and I'll expalin the steps I followed to get it to work reliably. Note ot self: write down steps on a website... :) > But the new release of Mandrake 10 totally screwed up as far as Speedtouch > is concerned..... so thats why I fancy a change.

Even with the 2.4 Kernel, Mandrake 10 official will not tolerate the speedtouch! Whilst in the config GUI, you get an error message stating "Sorry, we only support 2.4 kernel and above".... figure that one out! especially when you are running 2.4!

If this happens to be on RH9, do check the RH knowledge base (and do so if it is any other version). There are various items about it. Follow them all. (check 'up2date' and the combination "'up2date' and 'RH9'". The root of most evil is the combination of rpm and the used database. I needed a manual update of both of them to resolve the problem. Its discussed in one of the articles.

I want to update these with rpms, but up2date on these machines has no direct access to the internet, so I've been downloading the rpms via the up2date on the server, then copying them down to the other machines and installing them using rpm -Fvh. This works for some packages, but I've been getting a lot of NOKEY errors and packages not installing. I think that I have the same key in /usr/share/rhn on the two workstation machines. Anyone have an idea how I can make this configuration work without having to put these workstations on the internet?

Check the quality of the XFree rpm file if it is complete. If it is not complete or in error, download it manually. You will notice it is a little larger than an average package. Then if XFree is running while it is updated, that might also cosume more time. In the end, patience will help too.

I want to update these with rpms, but up2date on these machines has no direct access to the internet, so I've been downloading the rpms via the up2date on the server, then copying them down to the other machines and installing them using rpm -Fvh. This works for some packages, but I've been getting a lot of NOKEY errors and packages not installing. I think that I have the same key in /usr/share/rhn on the two workstation machines. Anyone have an idea how I can make this configuration work without having to put these workstations on the internet?

Turn on IEEE1394 option 3. save & exit 4. make dep <-- it looked okay 5. make modules failed with many "implicit declaration of function" errors So, after make clean, I turned off IEEE1394 option and saved it, but it looks like it still produced the same errors with make modules.

Here is what I learned - The client-side RHNSD checks for scheduled updates at a period specified by the "interval" directive in the /etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhnsd configuration file. Mine was set at INTERVAL=240 which is 240 minutes, or 4 hours. Fortunately, I also found the rhn_check utility which forces rhnsd to immediately check for and apply scheduled updates. This is all documented under "Red Hat Network Daemon" in the Red Hat Network 3.3 Update Reference Guide. -Kay -----Original Message----- From: Kay Williams Sent: Tuesday, May 25, 2004 11:00 AM To: rhn-users at redhat.com Subject: [rhn-users] How does the Schedule feature in RHN work?

The server setup are OK and running well when I tried to use another Red Hat Linux as client (NIS user can login from this client). When I tried to use SGI Irix, the user cannot login with the error "user cannot login". Then I check the NIS passwd (using "ypcat passwd"), and found that the RH9 passwd encryption are longer than Irix. Example are as below : SGI Irix -> usr1:EJr2z35mE2892:1972:0:Testing:/usr1:/bin/bash RH9 NIS (using ypcat passwd) -> nis1:$1$oUopbKaO$0NdOP/shwoB7ZOvJretLn1:502:502::/NFS/nis1:/bin/bash I found that this is the cause of the problem that make the user cannot login from SGI Irix. When I tried to copy the passwd encryption from Irix /etc/passwd user to RH9 NIS server shadow file, then update the NIS database as below : RH9 NIS (using ypcat passwd) -> nis1:EJr2z35mE2892:502:502::/NFS/nis1:/bin/bash Then my NIS user can login from any of the clients (using passwd same as usr1 SGI Irix passwd) i.e. can login from SGI, IBM & RH9. So how do I shorter the encryption of the passwd file, so that NIS users can login from any machine without reinstall and setup back the RH9 NIS (as I remember we can unselected the longer encryption /etc/passwd file while installing). ____________________________________________________________ Yahoo!

For the past few weeks, when I login to RHN, all of my machines appear up to date (they have the blue checkmark), however, I'm getting e-mails stating that they all need patches. Using RHN, I verify that specific RPMs are installed and out of date, yet, the Errata screen shows nothing. If I run "up2date -p" to refresh the package profile, everything starts working again and I can push out errata. Unfortunately, the next time an errata comes out, I am forced to refresh the profile again before RHN will recognize that the machine is out of date. I've called tech support, customer service, posted a bugzilla bug, used the RHN feedback form, and posted this issue on the general RedHat mailing list. Nobody has been able to help. Is anyone else seeing similar issues? I'm at my wit's end on this. If things don't start working, I'll have to cancel my RedHat entitlements and move elsewhere.
