I did the same just a couple of week ago.
Well, DO NOT TRY TO DO IT MANUALLY!!! I did, and was a HUUUGE
mistake...(completely screwed-up installation, sigh!)
The best thing to do is download the RPM binary distribution
from RedHat, and install it. Plain and simple.
Remember to install both the GLIBC, LINUXTHREAD, and the
CRYPT API, are used by the JVM.
BTW, I've installed the IBM 1.3, and it work fine.

EJ,
Thanks for taking the time to share that most excellent post. I gave
up on the IDE burner and ended up buying a new scsi burner (Imation)
which of course isn't properly suppored by cdrecord (burns start, then
bomb with SCSI errors)

Hello,
I recently installed Suse Linux 6.4. During the installation I have
choosen to use the azerty/be1-latin keyboardmap. This gives me an
azerty keyboard but almost all special keys like ù,£,",_,&,<, etc are
standing on a different key or are not accesseble. I've tried with
every other azerty keyboardmap but still the same. I found very little
help in the online databases. As you can understand this is very
difficult typing esp. when you are using programming languages.
Did anybody experienced something similar and more important is there a
solution?

You need to tell Lilo that the bios is set to boot from the scsi drive,
rather than the first IDE drive. In your lilo.conf you need something
like this:
disk=/dev/sda (or whatever)
bios=0x80 [from memory, wouldn't swear that's right]
If you have a mixed scsi/ide system, Lilo assumes that the bios is set
to boot
from the first IDE disk, unless you specify otherwise in the lilo.conf
file. See
the lilo man page and other documentation for details, or check back on
www.deja.com,
as this crops up pretty frequently.

Hi.
How do I get the CHS-values for a drive in LBA-mode?
I have the CHS-values printed on the label of the harddisc:
CHS=16383,16,63
which is the "physical geometry", doesn't it?
But how to get the "logical geometry"?

Is the CD drive detected as an IDE drive? If so you need to disable
IDECD.
Actualy this ought to be disabled in the redhat standard kernel, as not
doing this makes the scsi emulation code useless. I would call that a
bug in Redhat's standard kernel configuration, which they realy should
get fixed. Anyone care to complain to bugzilla?

Hi,
LBA mapping:
1. LBA Uses 255 heads
2. multiply your CHS-Mapped cylinders with your heads and divide it through
255 heads (16383 * 16 / 255 = 1027,xxx)
3. Your new mapping is 1027/255/63
4. you will lose some MB with the LBA mapping

Subject: questions regarding IPCHAINS, IP MASQUERADING & SQUID
Date: 22 Aug 2000 15:32:15 GMT
Hi Everyone,
I am having dilemma and I am wondering if you can help me with
regarding configuring Linux firewall. Let me apologize if the
post is long; however, I would like to be as specific as possible.
My background comes from NT and have been working on it for 4 yr.
I've done work on Checkpoint Firewall and Microsoft Proxy Server
Version 2. My opinion is that everything running on Microsoft
Windows is a piece of shit (pardon my language, but it's true.) I
am not an expert on firewall by any means but windows NT has so
many holes in there that my firewall was essentially useless.
Please don't get me wrong, Checkpoint is a very good product;
however, NT is so buggy that it boils down to not having a firewall
at all.
I understand that checkpoint is shipping out with a new version
that will support Linux platform. However, in the mean time, I am
looking at implementing ipchains and squid on my linux machine.
Here is what understand from my intial research:
Ipchains is simply a packet filtering firewall. It is similar to
Cisco access-list. It works at network of the OSI layer.
Ip masquerading is, in another word, a NAT (Network Address
Translation). This allows your private network (i.e. 10.0.0.0,
172.16.0.0-172.31.0.0, 192.168.0.0) to access the Internet with
a single valid IP address.
Squid is a proxy server that enables http web-caching proxy
server that conserves the bandwith of your network (i.e. let
say that userA goes to www.yahoo.com and sometimes later
userB goes to the same site, squid will provide the userB with
information that it caches previously thus saving the bandwith).
Now here is my problem:
Let say that I have a small network with a network ID of
192.168.1.0/24 (private IP address) that consists of win98,
WinNT and Linux machines with the Linux machine having
two NICs. The first NIC on the linux machine belongs to the
private network with an address of 192.168.1.1. The second
NIC on the linux machine is connected to the Internet with
a valid IP address of 199.0.216.222. This linux machines
serves as a gateway to the Internet. Furthermore, I've
successfully implemented SSH on the linux machine so that
remote users can safely login from the Internet. I really
love SSH.
>From my win98 and winNT machines, I can ping the address
of the linux machine (i.e. 192.168.1.1) with no problem. From
the linux machine, I can get to the Internet with no problem
(i.e. http, ftp, telnet). Here are my questions:
1) I would like to implement IPCHAINS on the linux gateway
machine to prevent unwanted traffic coming into and out of
my private network. How do I go about doing that? What
exactly do I have to do? I've read a lot of books regarding
this topic but they only provide piece-meal answer or they
assume that you are an expert in Linux which I am not.
How do I configure ipchains? Which directory? Please
provide me with specific instructions on how about doing
this? Please do not leave out details even when you think
it is not important. Furthermore, if you have a ipchains
template, I would love to have it.
2) I would like users from win98 and winNT machines to
access the Internet to using services such as TELNET, FTP
and HTTP services. For example, let say I am at a front of
a win98 machine in my private network and I would like
to telnet to George Mason University. So, from the command
prompt, I start telnet mason.gmu.edu.
I understand that I have to implement IP masquerading for
this to work. Again, how do I go about doing this? As I
already mentioned above, lot of books provide piece-meal
solutions but it doesn't help me. Please help me with
specific instructions and please don't leave anything out
even if you think it is not important.
3) Assuming that I have IP masquerading work, do I
really need squid proxy server? I understand that squid
is a web-caching proxy server? Does it mean that in order
to utilize squid, I have to configure all the browsers (i.e.
netscape & Internet Explorer) to use squid? Please help
me on this one. Does it mean that I have to configure
the browsers to connect to the linux machine that runs
squid? Please help
I really appreciate everyone help and efforts. Thanks.
LONG LIVE LINUX. TRASH WINDOWS.
Sincerely,
David

Date: Tue, 22 Aug 2000 10:48:44 -0500
Programs in /usr/bin are runable by users. I think the problem has more
to do with getting a program to start in xwindows. The error message
that returns to me is as follows:
"Error: can't open display."
So, I think that I need to learn how to write a crontab statement
that starts a program in a display window, at least, those programs
that need xwindows.
How would you write a crontab statement that activates an application
requiring xwindows to run?
59 12 22 8 tue /usr/bin/acroread
minute hour day month day-of-week program
btw, this statement does not work for me.
Learned a nice way to change the editor for the crontab. Type the command,
export EDITOR=emacs
One can use other editors simply by replacing "emacs" with the next editor.
For example,
export EDITOR=vi
Or,
export EDITOR=cooledit
Using the command crontab -e works better than running an editor, writing
the changes,
saving the file, exiting the program, and then typing at the unix prompt,
crontab [name of user crontab file]
The command "crontab -e" will autmatically activate the edited crontab.

You should check that you used the correct stuff in lilo.
What does dmesg says?
What's your lilo.conf?

I think the standard 62 kernel should be ok, just need to add stuff in
lilo.conf.
If ide-cd was a module you could make it work without touching
lilo.conf.
Next redhat releases will use ide-cd as module, I think.

They are right in not supporting a recompiled kernel.
You should re-install their kernel and tell them "I've your standard
kernel installed, please tell me how to make my ide cdrw work"

I have enabled my firewall, but not set it up could this contribute to the
