I have files created by Apache, so they are showing "write protected" to other users. When I type in "rm xxx", I will be prompted for a confirmation for each file. How do I avoid getting these "Yes/No questions"?

Leo,
	I think you should describe what X programs you want to run and why
you need to tunnel the X. Perhaps there are other ways of doing it.
for example VNC might be suitable.

If you have a slow connection somewhere in between your client and
server then it won't be a very pleasant experience,
although X will generally be faster than VNC. 

If you are going to go the trouble of installing cygwin to get the
XFree-86 server then you might find you can get some of the X
applications to run directly on the PC (possibly still as X clients).

You could try the demo version of X-Win32 from www.starnet.com.

Dan Bar Dov said:
    
If the file is owned by the user, touch will modify its

file cannot be modified (unless I insist as in rm -f)

Is this standard on all Unixes?
      
[snip]...
I am not sure if this is standard, but you shouldn't rely on this
sort of test with touch. I don't feel like powering up my solaris
machines but my FreeBSD 4.7 system shows the same behavior. My
RS/6000 and SGI Indy aren't plugged in either.

Same on Solaris.

If you think about it, the times are in the inode, not the file.
Blocking write permissions to a file cannot also block write permission
to the inode, because that is where the permissions are stored - but
you don't have general access to the inodes anyway.

Whether the file is actually writable or not,
touch is still just lying about it being modified. It does
not actually modify it.

I then started trying to remember how touch works -
the system call it uses is utime(2), so you can read the man page
on the defined permissions for modification. I tried on the Solaris
man page but it left me too confused to repeat here. 
I think they meant it is ok if 
you are effectively root, or the owner, or have write permission.
Different permissions might apply if you are trying
to set another time in the past or the future.
I presume there's a Posix standard for it. Somewhere.

Hiii,

Im trying to set-up BIND on my LAN. I have one Redhat machine
acting as a <Firewall, Router, DNS Server> and 2 WINDOWS
machines behind it. Right now the windows machines are
configured to have my ISP DNS as there Primary DNS server but
i want my Linux machine to act as the DNS server.

#####Redhat 7.3 (2.4.20), Bind-9.2.2rc1#######

Soo i  think i want to set-up a forwarding name server.

Soo this is what i got soo far: i created the file called
/etc/named.conf and in it is: 

options {
directory "/var/named";
forwarders { <IP address of forwarder>; };
forward only;
};

I ran  named-checkconf and no errors.

I have also created a /var/named  <---directory!  Now im
confused on the next steps i need after this can someone
help....And do i need more stuff in my /etc/named.conf file? Thanks
guys 

    

I also have in named.conf:
	listen-on {
		127.0.0.1;
		192.168.0.1;   -- address of internal lan eth i/f
	};

to make sure it ignores the outside world (and my mistakes are
less likely to escape).

Not sure about the rest, because I created a bogus internal domain
and populated it with my home PCs IP addresses. Which seemed like a
fun thing at the time (did I say that?) but in the end was a bit
overkill. The kids know the IP numbers of all the machines anyway.
The DNS howto (www.tldp.org) I think was what I mainly followed.

edit the /etc/initab file (as root) and change the

id:3:initdefault:

line to read

id:5:initdefault:

Prior to this you will see a reminder of the different runlevel settings. I
assume 5 is X11 on yours.  However you may want to lay off doing this until
you are totally sure that you have your system bedded down as if you get a
hang in X11 then you may not be able to fix it in text mode without a
re-install (I'm a newby and it happened to me!!)

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Hey gang,

	We discussed this some in the recent past, but they are switching my
service over today, so I have some questions.

	I'm using a Telocity (now DirecTV, soon to be nobody) ADSL "modem",
and have opted to try to make it work with their system, rather than
spending the $26 to get their modem shipped to me (what can I say,
I'm cheap)...

	I've already downloaded roaring penguin, & it is ready for
installation.

	1)  I have a static IP, but do not know what it is.
	2)  I am currently configured for DHCP ethx configuration

	1st question - has anyone else made this swithc?  What I'm getting
at is this -"did Telocity/DirecTV use PPPoE & their modem handled it,
so I should just need to reset the modem & maybe it will work?"

	2nd question - if the 1st quenstions' answer is "no," what are the
steps I need to do to setup roaring penguin - yes, I know, RTFM, but
I'm looking for some insight, here....

	I think the big problem I have is going to be setting up my IP
address when I don't even know it.  I understand that the modem that
Earthlink would ship me handles the PPPoE conversion itself & uses
DHCP for my machines connection to it - Is this true? - THey call
their modem a Bridged Ethernet ADSL Modem (I think it's a two-wire
job).

	3rd question - what changes do I need to make to my startup scripts
(esp. for my ethernet *e.g. ifup, etc.*), to get the whole mess to
work?

	Thanks,
		Tom

Autologin in X is controlled by the [G|K|X]DM program.  GDM (the Gnome 
login handler) and I think KDM (KDE version) both allow you to pick a 
user as the default user to login automatically as.

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


I've never used "--with-layout=RedHat", so I don't know exactly what that
does.  Typically, configure takes an argument like "--with-prefix=/SOME/DIR"
where /SOME/DIR is where you want files to go, like /usr/local/apache.

You might want to run find and check to see if there are multiple httpd
files on your drive:

find / -name httpd -print

If there are others besides /usr/bin/httpd, run them with -V to see if any
of them are .44...that will help you start to track down where your files
went.  You can also run find with a time option to find all the files
created/modified within the last 24 hours, which would help you track down
all of the files that are new in your root directory.  Be careful deleting
files from /, though.

There are all these files there now like... "httpd.conf" and
"httpd-2.0.40-pod.patch", etc etc....


And at the command line when I run /usr/bin/httpd -V it still

What I ran for commands to create the package were...


./configure --enable-module=so --enable-ssl --with-layout=RedHat


I was hoping this wopuld compile and install over my previous
