The numbers at these devices are for partitions, the characters are for different devices. /dev/hdx is for ide-disks. How many can you attach physically? Do you have some emulator or such using/needing more? Peek at the current defined /dev/hd* devices and peek at their major and minor numbers. /dev/sd* is for scsi-disks. I have a iSCSI implementation here, that also uses /dev/sd* devices. Currently we are at /dev/sdi which works ok. The system goes beyond /dev/sdz with /dev/sdaa trough /dev/sdiv pre-configured. Peeking at the major (8 and 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 128, 129, 130, 131, 132, 133, 134, 135) and minor (16 numbers per major) device numbers, I expect it can have 14 * 16 == 224 devices. If you definitly need to go beyond, peek if there are aditional major numbers which are free to use. Then use `mkdev` (see `man mkdev`) to define additional devices. (you might need to tweak/rebuild the kernel at this point...)

I wonder if there is somewhere a road map for the coming RedHat enterprise packages. Especially, I wonder when the new KDE release will be made available on red hat enterprise. The current available version of kde on RHE is 3.1.3. It was released on July, 2003 by in the KDE project. The current version of KDE by the KDE project is 3.3.2. Does anyone know when it is supposed to be released under Red Hat Network? Additionnaly, do you know if it is safe to install a newer version of KDE, and where I could get the process and source to install it ? - since it its quite difficult to do it from scratch with the sources, I guess... More generally, is there a road map available on the red hat web site for the date of the future package release under red hat enterprise ?

Message-ID: <20050208102939.1954f275.durket@stanford.edu> I have a validly subscribed RedHat Enterprise Linux WS 3.0 system (it's not due to expire until May of this year). Up until the last week, I've been able to run up2date reliably to get all the current updates. Last week when I attempted to run up2date, I received the following message: "This system may not be updated until it is associated with a channel." Since I've had occasional problems with RHN losing information about my systems at random times, rather than getting upset, I logged on to my RHN account and attempted to change the base channel back to what the system was registered as. No go - the error message indicated that I would be exceeding my subscription limit. What's going on here? Has anybody seen this problem before (RedHat suddenly losing channel info on a working channel)? Is there a fix? I'm sorry if this is the wrong list for support issues like these, but for those of us with no phone/email/web support, it's particularly frustrating when RHN screws things up and there's no way to get help. If there's another list which is looked at by the RHN maintainers/tech support people let me know and I'll repost my problem report there. Thanks.

As for getting help, I have been able to contact my sales rep for help with getting subscription info squared away. You might try that.

Michael, I've had some recent problems with RHN where I had to delete the 3 __db.00x files from /var/lib/rhn, but the error was very different. As for getting help, I have been able to contact my sales rep for help with getting subscription info squared away. You might try that. If you don't who that is, call the main toll free number, tell them you want to speak with your sales rep.

Look in the Extras channel: https://rhn.redhat.com/network/software/packages/details.pxt?pid=280388 The RPM's on the mysql site should work, too. The potential advantage there is that you could use later versions of mysql (i.e., 4.x). What really threw me was postgres, which is in there as rh-postgresql (and which doesn't turn up on a search for "postgre"). --Michael From Cleveland at winnefox.org Wed Feb 9 19:22:28 2005 From: Cleveland at winnefox.org (Jody Cleveland) Date: Wed, 9 Feb 2005 13:22:28 -0600 Subject: [rhn-users] How to route mail to local users using postfix?

I am running a fairly strong system with a XEON processor with 1 gig of DDR and LSI RAID, but at less than 60% user load everyhing starts freezing up and services top working (POP3, SMTP, HTTP, DNS). I have heard that others are experiencing the same thing and I was told that there was a problem with the last ES kernel, so but after updating to the current version nothing has improved. It still locks up at least once a day. Restarting services appears to clear the problem, but this is not a solution. RedHat Support's suggestions have not been useful. Is there an answer to this problem? I need one very soon.

I have more less 1300 users and 25 concurrent users reading email trough IMAP and 300 POP3 users. When I look for the problem I encounter that 600 users have more than 400 MB at INBOX. In mbox format. The solution that I implement was: If the problem was that the INBOX is on one disk and the I/O was too slow, I can make a RAID but I want to implement quotas for INBOX and everything on email account. I modify Postfix config to deliver email to home's directory. Then recompile IMAPd for read those mailbox. So the home's directory have INBOX and IMAP carpets. Then make user groups and move that groups to different disk, so the performance is increased. Now we have a better performance and a better throughput. Sorry for my English I'm not native speaker.

If I recall correctly, what happens is that RedHat's dev RPM wipes out the the ALSA system symlinks that Dell uses (at least that's what happened in my case). If it's what I think it is, make sure that this symlink is present on your Dell machine (assuming that you're using the ALSA sound drivers supplied by Dell): /dev/snd -> /proc/asound/dev Hope this helps, Michael Durket On Thu, 10 Feb 2005 19:03:50 +0100 (CET) Nicolas.Castagne at imag.fr wrote: > Hi all, > > I installed recently various machines with red hat enterprise 3. > I then upgraded all the packages by using upd2date in red hat network. > > Since then, the audio facilities are out of order (they were OK before). > > The "parametre de systeme/detecter la carte son " (system parameter/detect > audio sound card) still displays the audio driver info, but the 'play' > button no more plays anything. > The various Volume COntrol tools do not run, nore the audio players. > > The machines are DELL precision 360, with Analog Device internal > AD1980-AC97 sound cards. > I tried to reinstall drivers provided by DELL (and even ASUS) for the > card.

I don't know of a specific way to identify updates in the sense of a "transaction" (to pull in a database term), but if you know the approximate time the update was done, you can dump the RPM database, and search that.

One would hope you're monitoring what patches are issued when and you should sorta "know" what's pending for what.

If you insist on doing it manually, remember that there's kernel, kernel-sump, kernel-utils, kernel-pcmcia-cs, and kernel-unsupported which all have deps on each other. up2date will still resolve the deps for you in force mode.

Before executing MAKEDEV they see how a ls of the directory is in the close files: brw-rw----1 root disk 1, 9 Sea 19 2002 ram9 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jan 2 2004 ramdisk -> ram0 crw-r--r--1 root root 1, 8 Sea 19 2002 random crw-rw----1 root disk 27, 32 Sea 19 2002 rawqft0 After the MAKEDEV raw it is of this sorts things out: brw-rw----1 root disk 1, 9 Sea 19 2002 ram9 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jan 2 2004 ramdisk -> ram0 crw-r--r--1 root root 1, 8 Sea 19 2002 random drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 2 2004 raw <====== crw-rw----1 root disk 162, 0 Sea 19 2002 rawctl <====== lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jan 2 2004 rawip -> inet/rawip <====== crw-rw----1 root disk 27, 32 Sea 19 2002 rawqft0 They can notice that he appears the block, the directory and the link. Only that when I restart the equipment adds everything again. This is being my problem. Should I execute some other command for these files not to disappear? Thank you very much for the support. Regards, Caros colegas lin77sys e Per Lindahl e outros, A configura??o no /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices foi efetuada depois de executar o MAKEDEV raw. Antes disto o diret?rio /dev/raw n?o existia. Antes de executar o MAKEDEV vejam como fica um ls do diret?rio nos arquivos pr?ximos: brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 9 Mar 19 2002 ram9 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jan 2 2004 ramdisk -> ram0 crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 8 Mar 19 2002 random crw-rw---- 1 root disk 27, 32 Mar 19 2002 rawqft0 Ap?s o MAKEDEV raw fica desta maneira: brw-rw---- 1 root disk 1, 9 Mar 19 2002 ram9 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jan 2 2004 ramdisk -> ram0 crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 8 Mar 19 2002 random drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 2 2004 raw crw-rw---- 1 root disk 162, 0 Mar 19 2002 rawctl lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jan 2 2004 rawip -> inet/rawip crw-rw---- 1 root disk 27, 32 Mar 19 2002 rawqft0 Podem perceber que aparece o bloco, o diret?rio e o link.

Scenary: 1 or 2 or 3 rhel 3.0 ES for : logon domains, sso, file, print, dns, smtp, imaps, pop3s, squid, apache, ftp, firewall. Othes servers, UNIXes, Windows (NT/2000/2003) for especified applications, DB, CRM, etc. Clients: rhel 3.0 WS, win 9x/ME/NT/2000/XP, UNIXes. I want the other services in other servers authenticate to rhel servers. Centralized authenticated , single sing on, master/slave setups in services, etc. Where can I find a guide for this implementation? I think that two servers rhel 3.0 ES in the network is sufficient.

The IBM x225 has factory default hardware with a post-installed Plextor DVD+RW (PX-708A) drive installed as secondary slave. RedHat detects this drive as (/dev/hdd). Under Gentoo, the drive could read DVD+RW discs without any problems and could burn them with growisofs from the dvd+rw-tools package. Since installing RedHat ES3, the drive can read CD's, but it can not read DVD's properly, particularly DVD+RW discs. It can mount the discs, but the file sizes are reported as much smaller than they should be. For example, a 2.2GB tar.gz file reports a size of 7MB. I've checked the DVD's in WinXP and found that the DVD's are fine, reporting the correct file sizes. I've spent a lot of time trying a variety of solutions, including a custom kernel, but nothing helpful yet. Any help would be much appreciated.

If you create a volume group and a logical volume on this disk vgscan command, even on boot, should create the devices correctly. May be a SCSI chain problem ? I don't know. Perhaps what I said is a big mistake of mine. Please, let me know news about it. Good luck!

In etc/login.defs the value for PASS_MAX_DAYS should be set to 90. Then every account on the box will expire in the 90 day rotation. Good practice for security reasons!! You then don't have to account for it in your useradd() script. As for forcing the user to change their password at first login, in your script when you set the users "default" password with passwd(), use the " -f " option to force a password change on first login. You can also do some other "timed" password change options if you know the user isn't going to login "..right now....but you don't want the account to remain available for, lets say two weeks...." This is good in the event your always using the same default password for your new users. Prevents the "Internal Attacks", if you know what I mean. --Mike.

Message-ID: <42134CBE.3030607@mimotek.com> Hi, I recently installed a RedHat ES 3 system. When I installed it, the RedHat installer automatically detected the need for the megaraid2 driver. I am now looking to update the kernel to the latest version (using up2date) and wondered if I need to do anything special to ensure that it boots with the RAID controller. Apologies if the above is a silly question. It is quite a few years since I maintained a linux server and coming back to the update channel system (which is very different from what I've used previously), I'm not too sure about the core things like kernel upgrades. Does up2date actually replace the old kernel or does it add it and let me tell the boot manager what to use? My real concern is that the server is based far from me, so I can't easily access it should I mess up the kernel upgrade.

When I installed RH, our operating system guy gave me a license key that I used to register with RHN. This allowed me to run up2date. The problem is that if I list the systems I am responsible for at rhn.redhat.com, I don't see my machine listed. I'm sure that if our OS guy went in he'd see it listed. But what I would like to do is get it listed under my login as well as his. Can that be done? I have root access on the machine but the one thing I have to make sure that I don't mess up is the license key. -- John G.

I don't want that. If your rhn.redhat.com account is in the same organization as your sys admin's, then all he needs to do is create a System Group containing only the system in question, and grant you access to that particular System Group. Your sys admin should also be able to tell you if your account is in the same organization as his accounts. --Bret From rajkum2002 at rediffmail.com Thu Feb 17 16:04:39 2005 From: rajkum2002 at rediffmail.com (Raj Kumar) Date: 17 Feb 2005 16:04:39 -0000 Subject: [rhn-users] force user to change password on first login Message-ID: <20050217160439.3891.qmail@webmail18.rediffmail.com> Hello Mike, Thanks for replying to my posting.

A simple script to to do a full backup of /home to a single tape device (assuming mt saw the desities correctly) would be: ----BEGIN mt -f /dev/st0 status if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then echo "Tape Offline!" exit $? fi tar -cpvf /dev/st0 /home sleep 10 mt -f /dev/st0 rewoffl # Possibly you'll need an explict eject # mt -f /dev/st0 eject ----END Dump is alo included though ext2/3 dump seems to be slightly behind the times, I'd suggest sticking with GNU tar or star if you can... It's also way more portable (yes, this is helpful when you have a tar backup on linux but the only other operational and comaptible tape drive for restores is attached to a Solaris box :) If all that seems too complicated, there's a nifty little program called FlexBackup on sourceforge that is really rather nice for most simple-to-medium backup needs and Bacula if you need something for big backup deployments and can't affort TSM, NetBackup, or Legato. (There are alsoa number of other smaller players, BackupExpress, Arkelia, LoneTar, BRU, etc.. I'd say if you can't afford the big boys, stick with opensource) Lastly, IIRC, the VXA stuff is helical scan (similar to DDS) tape technology. It's cheap and fast but shoe-shining can kill your tapes, drives and perfromance way quicker, so be sure to try to feed the tape enough data to keep it streaming constatnly during the backup. Generally with direct attached disk to direct attached tape this should not be an issue, but backing up across the LAN (or doing a backup during peak hours, etc..) might mean you need to tar to a disk and then untar-retar to tape on the backup machine or use something like buffer or mbuffer on the inbetween the client and the tape backup software to ensure there are no underruns. And test your restores :) HTH, -n -- ------------------------------------------- nathan hruby uga enterprise information technology services production systems support metaphysically wrinkle-free ------------------------------------------- From rajkum2002 at rediffmail.com Fri Feb 18 15:17:03 2005 From: rajkum2002 at rediffmail.com (Raj Kumar) Date: 18 Feb 2005 15:17:03 -0000 Subject: [rhn-users] force user to change password on first login Message-ID: <20050218151703.7966.qmail@webmail32.rediffmail.com> Hi Mike, I logged in as user1 today and I did not get any warnings.

Hello, We are deploying NIS service on our network. The linux reference guide mentions about assigning static ports to ypserv and ypxfrd services. However, rppasswdd doesn't have static ports. But the system administrators shutdown all ports and open only specific ports needed for the service. since yppasswdd can use any port i cannot tell them a specific port to open. how does others handle this case? http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/security-guide/s1-server-nis.html Also, yppasswd seems to be inherently unsecure since it sends the password in plain text. The NIS how-to mentions about an alternative rppasswd. when instaling it configure script complains about missing "libnscd" (nscd-name service caching daemon) library. I did not find any nbcd-devel rpm on redhat to get rid of this error. Where can I download that. Are there any other best practices for NIS?

Sorry for too many emails... just another thought occurred to me... the application developers might have implemented "sshd" differently from "su" implementation. su probably recognizes the error that password was expired and calls the "password" module. but sshd may just return when auth returns an error message... does anyone follow me? my guess is the sshd daemon you are having might be different. The sshd version on the linux server is: openssh-server-3.6.1p2-33.30.3 su-->/etc/pam.d/su ssh-client-->ssh daemon-->/etc/pam.d/sshd since /etc/pam.d/su and /etc/pam.d/sshd are almost identical (to my eyes) I guess the problem is with ssh-daemon... Is my understanding correct? Thanks! Have a nice weekend everyone!!

Message-ID: <20050220160144.GA28116@mark.bch.net> I have waded through kernel module documentation here and there, but I am still unclear on a couple of things: 1) Is it possible for a running kernel of rev, let's say '10', to load modules from a slightly earlier kernel, let's say '9'? 2) If so, how can I tell which .o is actually loaded? 3) Do dkms.conf settings override modules.conf settings? (I'll confess that I don't really understand dkms... yet). Thanks for any help!

That's because it only knows FAT and NTFS filesystems and it just hooks itself into the boot-sequence of the other OS (but not in the boot-sector!). You can use the next ways to install M$Windwos: - Start from scratch: first install M$Windows, then install Linux. - Add an other disk on which you install M$Windows. - edit the partition-table such that the first partition is free and available for M$Windows. Be sure also to update the boot-settings (grub or lilo). THen, expect M$Windows install will overwrite the bootsector, hence be prepared for a hard way to boot into linux the first time after M$Windwos install. My advice: to be save and easy: backup your data from linux, then install M$Windows, then re-install linux. An alternative is to use stuff like VMWare: just create a new, virtual machine and install the other OS in there. THen you can run it side by side.

Message-ID: Windows (all version) cannot read or write Linux file system partition types, except in a catastrophic-loss mode (resistance is futile, you will be over-written). Windows, therefore, needs its own partition on the hard drive. Suggestion, get another hard-drive (40GB is roughly $40) and put windows on the new drive. This would allow you to put windows on a portion of the new drive, then move the linux partitions to the rest of this new drive, allowing you to continue only having one drive if that is necessary.

I have many Dell servers running Red Hat, and the problems you are sharing aren't very unique, I'm afraid. This is one of the reasons I switched to buying IBM and HP servers for my production needs. The Dell hardware simply stinks. Their Linux support is worse, and when you finally get it running, you will discover that the speed of the Dell RAID cards is 10% or less of what you expect. Just wait until you need to know if one of your hard drives is about to blow up. Dell's Open Manage software is almost useless. The Dell servers we bought were a couple of hundred dollars cheaper than the same specs on the IBM servers we replaced them with. :-) -Michael >>> Geoff.Sweet at wildtangent.com 02/17 7:03 PM >>> I am going to have to assume that there must be bigger problems with the aic79xx driver. We are still waiting for a kernel fix that resolves a kernel panic that occurs on our Dell servers. It occurs when this driver loads. So far RH tech support can only tell us to build a custom ram image using older drivers and wait for the next kernel release. So far 2 kernel releases have not resolved the issue (granted one of them was a very minor release). If there are going to continue to be unexplainable issues with this driver, I am going to have to re-think using RH. What kills me, and no one can answer me this; two machines with identical images (via ghost), one will have the kernel panic, the other won't. It is very inconsistent.

Two days later (friday) I installed the latest updates with 'up2date -u -f' and an updated kernel installed along with other packages. The machine now hangs on boot with a blank screen except for 'GRUB _'. I presume that after the kernel update, grub does not have what it needs to have in order to access the I2O device, even though it did after install.

Since this upgrade, writing data to the server from mounted machines running an older version of NFS (ok, they're SGIs, I'll admit it) give an I/O error. They work great with RHAS 2. Is there a way that NFS can be tweaked in order to help it be more compatible with over versions of NFS? Say, for example, nfsv2 or something? i.e. I don't know what enhancements were made to this latest version, perhaps roll them back. Any Ideas? Thanks in advance for your help.

The rhn-applet-gui no longer works are the Tarroon Update 4 for Advanced Server 3. Basically, the icon stays with a blue circle and white checkmark. If you right click all options are greyed out except for 'exit'. If you manually run up2date all things work properly, however the rhn-applet-gui appears to be foobar'd. Looking deeper in the logs, it looks like the rhn-applet-gui thinks the machine is no longer registered. However this is not the case; as if it was, then up2date would not work. We tried removing the machine from rhn and re-registering that still has not fixed the problem. Any ideas ?

I ran into something similar when I upgraded (reinstalled) several boxes from RH7.3 to RHEL3. I fixed it by using the 'tcp' mount option.

The advantage of this is that you can block a whole domain and it's easy to add another domain. The disadvantage is that if the user knows the IP address of their favorite site it's easy to get around (but almost noone does :]). Example: In your named.conf: zone "hotbar.com" { type master; file "other_zones/unwanted.zone"; }; zone "gator.com" { type master; file "other_zones/unwanted.zone"; }; zone "gainpublishing.com" { type master; file "other_zones/unwanted.zone"; }; zone "mysearch.com" { type master; file "other_zones/unwanted.zone"; }; zone "myweb.com" { type master; file "other_zones/unwanted.zone"; }; zone "myway.com" { type master; file "other_zones/unwanted.zone"; }; And then then unwanted.zone file would look like this: $TTL 3D @ IN SOA yourserv.example.com. root.yourserv.example.com ( 2002040900 28800 7200 2419200 86400 ) IN NS yourserv.example.com.

I hope this message helps someone like me and save sometime!! To support password aging for NIS accounts set both the merging options (for passwd and group) to FALSE in /var/yp/Makefile, and then push the shadow file out with the rest of the NIS maps. ..... /var/yp/Makefile # Should we merge the passwd file with the shadow file ? # MERGE_PASSWD=true|false MERGE_PASSWD=false # Should we merge the group file with the gshadow file ? # MERGE_GROUP=true|false MERGE_GROUP=false .....include shadow in the all target. # If you don't want some of these maps built, feel free to comment # them out from this list all: passwd group shadow ---------------------------------------------- To set the default password's age modify the parameter PASS_MAX_DAYS (90- to force user to change password after 90 days) in /etc/login.defs on the NIS server. To set the password's age for existing accounts use command "chage" (chage -M 90 username) caveat: some versions of ssh do not handle expired passwords very well. The openssh server that comes with RH doesn't seem to support it. When a user whose password has expired log in he will see get an error message and the connection is terminated immediately. Some one on this list mentioned SSH server from www.ssh.com supports it-- I didn't try. ? Hope this helps someone! Raj -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If not, very much appreciate it if someone could please point me to the proper venue. We have been running RedHat EL/WS V3 for some time now and recently I upgraded one of our workstations to V4. At first I did an upgrade install. After the install completed and I was rebooting the machine, the startup script: /etc/rc?.d/S*microcode_ctl failed because a directory the script checks for: /dev/cpu/* was gone. I looked on one of our V3 systems an that directory exists. Because of some other problems, I did a fresh install and now when I check there was no "start" soft-link to /etc/init.d/microcode_ctl created. So, even though there is a file /etc/firmware/microcode.dat, there is no corresponding start script in /etc/rc?.d/S??microcode_ctl script to load that file. There's also no /dev/cpu which the script checks for immediately. What happened between V3 and V4?

If you aren't committed to using one, maybe Dovecot is a good choice since it's the default in RHEL4 (although Cyrus RPM's also seem available).

That is, /sbin/iptables -I INPUT.... Yes, if you are adding them in this order, you do need to use -I instead of -A. However, I would highly recommend using the -A method and placing the DROP rule last. This is because a rule chain is traversed from top to bottom. When using -A, your rules are written out in the order they will be traversed in the chain. If using the -I method, your rules are written out in the opposite order they would get traversed. While this might not be too hard to fathom with only 3 rules, it will most definitely lead to confusion when more rules are added or someone else is trying to understand your rule set. That said, I would recommend something like: /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -s 1.1.1.1 -p tcp --dport ssh -j ACCEPT /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -s 2.2.2.2 -p tcp --dport ssh -j ACCEPT /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport ssh -j DROP If you want to use the state module, you might have an INPUT chain looking something like this: . . (maybe rules accepting all loopback traffic here) . /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT . . (maybe rules dropping spoofed or blacklisted traffic here) . /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW \ -p tcp --dport ssh --source 1.1.1.1 -j ACCEPT /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW \ -p tcp --dport ssh --source 2.2.2.2 -j ACCEPT . . (maybe more ACCEPT rules here) . /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -m limit --limit 3/minute --limit-burst 3 \ -j LOG --log-prefix "incoming DROPPED packet" /sbin/iptables -A INPUT -j DROP The state module was created to speed up a packet's traversal through the rule set. You put the ESTABLISHED,RELATED rule near the top of your INPUT chain and now that rule becomes a "shortcut" for established and related connections because those packets will now get matched very early in the chain. The state module is also optimized and much faster than if you were matching all your allowable traffic with separate non-state-module rules. And of course the longer your INPUT chain, the greater the benefit.

With RHEL4, Dovecot and Cyrus are supported. So if you want IMAP and maildir with RHEL3, you are going to have to build your own and it won't be supported by RH. I don't think this is the end of the world though. I have done this and I'm sure many others have also and it has worked well. If you are planning to migrate to RHEL4 someday and if you don't have an IMAP server preference and if RH support is important to you, I would suggest Dovecot. I've heard Cyrus was a pain to configure (although I've never used it). I have used Courier in the past and liked it, but decided to go with Dovecot because it seems to have a cleaner design to me and RH is supporting it in RHEL4. Courier has a very slick way to create RPM's from the source tarball that makes it very easy to use on any RHEL system, so it may still be worth considering.
