Re: Setting Domain Name in Redhat
I just had a post running for about two days all about this... It should be under HOSTNAME in /etc/sysconfig/network, DOMAINNAME doesn't do anything.

Re: hostname and domainname from redhat list
nope, not in the config file, it's the system hostname and domainname. If I set hostname to just the name, without the domain, the installer fails, also, if domainname is set to none, it fails. There is no config file to edit, it's a shell script you run that prompts you for this info, if it doesn't match what hostname and domainname return, then it craps out.

Re[2]: hostname and domainname from redhat list
It's the old version of mailstudio, we bought this license about two years ago, it's been working fine. I initially installed it on 6.2. From 6.2 to 7.2, it seemed that when I would set the hostname and domainname by using hostname name and domainname name, the settings would stay that way. But now under 7.3, each time I reboot, it changes... It doesn't tell me why it needs it, but it won't let me configure it without these settings..

No, my machine works fine, dns works fine, I'm trying to get a web based mail program working and it's telling me that I need to set domainname to something other than (none) I guess I can either find another package or just put this in a script.. Thanks for the help everyone.. Jake At 05:12 PM 5/15/2002 -0400, you wrote: Hi - I've been reading your posts on the redhat list. I get the list in digest mode, so I can't reply individually, but I thought I would send you a quick note. The "domainname" command has nothing to do with DNS domain (like yahoo.com or whatever). The domainname command, as stated in the man pages, is for setting the NIS/YP domain name for that machine. The NIS/YP domain name is akin to the Windows NT "domain" which has nothing to do with an internet/DNS/TCP/IP domain. As long as your hostname is correct, and you have the correct domain entry in /etc/resolv.conf you are good to go. Unless you are running NIS/YP, and I didn't see anywhere in your posts that you are, there is no need to worry about the domainname command. There is no utility to change the domain part of a FQDN. You do that in /etc/resolv.conf. So: 1. make sure output of hostname is correct 2. add "domain somedomain.com" to /etc/resolv.conf 3. you're done For example, I'm running numerous servers, and the output of "domainname" on all of them is null, and I can assure you they are all working correctly from an addressing standpoint. I don't run NIS or YP on any of my machines (LDAP is better). Hope this helps. - John John Turner [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 248-488-3466 Advertising Audit Service http://www.aas.com

Re: hostname and domainname
No, this doesn't help, I already looked at this... I can use dnsdomainname to set it, it gives me this when I try... dnsdomainname: You can't change the DNS domain name with this command Unless you are using bind or NIS for host lookups you can change the DNS domain name (which is part of the FQDN) in the /etc/hosts file. If I change anything with hostname and domainname, when I reboot it goes back to the old values. This is what this whole post is about...

Ok, I already had domain in /etc/resolv.conf Still, when I reboot, when I type hostname, I get the host + domain name, when I type domainname, still get (none). dnsdomainname get's the domain name.

hostname & domainname
Hi everyone, two questions... Under hostname, should that just be the name of my computer, or the domain also? Under domainname, should that just be the domain or the host also? Also, do I need anything in these? I'm only running dns, in the man pages it says it's for nis or yp.

Hi, I just installed 7.3, everything going good so far, but I can't get the hostname set correctly. What happened to linuxconf? I used that before to set up the network info, but I can't find it on any of the cd's. What can I use in place of linuxconf?

SED Question
Hey everyone, I am trying to make a "FROM" script that basically shows the person running the script who the mail is from that they have. Not very complex, but I can't seem to get it exactly how I want it. Currently, it works fine, but it shows too much info. This is what I have... cat /var/spool/mail/$uname | sed -e '/[Ff][Rr][Oo][Mm]:/b' -e d K, this shows all combinations of from:, which is kind of what I want, but I only want the from: at the beginning of a email, not all the from: in reply's etc... Can anyone help me out with this? Thanks, Jake

The way my calendar is set up depends on the individual month, year, and day being pulled from the database. Then it pulls the individual days events and displays them on the page.

MySQL Question
I know this isn't the right place for this, but I'm hoping someone can help me out. I have created a database, basically an online calendar, and I have the following fields in my table.. id int(10) auto_incrementyear int(4)month varchar(10)day int(2)time varchar(5)ampm char(2)event varchar(255) Where I'm running into a problem is on the output screen. I've tried sorting by day, time, and ampm, and all of these, but I'm still running into the same problem. The problem is that an entry of time 10:00 am is coming before 10:00 pm, it's because of the 1 in the entry, I think. Anyway, can anyone tell me how I can get the entries to be listed in sequential order by time and ampm? I've also tryed putting the year, month, day, and time into a datetime field, but I still have the same problem. Thanks, Jake
Re: Validating passwords via php, Lil help please! (Was with PERL)
Actually, take back that last email, newpass does seem to be working, just
don't know what it's doing, as the computer is just sitting there after I
put in newpass, I opened a new connection to the machine, and noticed that a
instance of passwd is running, along with poppassd. Interesting. So it must
be trying to change the password, right? Anyone know how to help out?
Thanks,
Jake

Re: Validating passwords via php, Lil help please! (Was with PERL)
Where did you find a rfc on poppassd? I've looked at www.rfc-editor.org, and
many others, and found nothing.
And, no, the newpass does not work, it just sits there, no response when I
telnet in.
Does anyone know what I can use instead of newpass?
Thanks,
Jake

Validating passwords via php, Lil help please! (Was with PERL)
K, this script uses php to access poppassd to change users passwords via a
form that I threw together quick, but there is a problem. The results of the
php is that it successfully changes the password, but it actually does not
change it. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to why this script
is not functioning for me?
-
";
# open a socket first
if(!$cfgTimeOut)
# without timeout
$poppass_handle = fsockopen($cfgServer, $cfgPort);
else
# with timeout
$poppass_handle = fsockopen($cfgServer, $cfgPort, &$errno, &$errstr,
$cfgTimeOut);
if(!$poppass_handle) {
echo " Connetion to server failed . ";
echo " Failed to Change Password ";
exit();
}
else {
# now talking to the server to change password.
fputs($poppass_handle, "user $username \r\n");
$tmpa = fgets($poppass_handle, 50);
fputs($poppass_handle, "pass $curpass \r\n");
$tmpb = fgets($poppass_handle, 50);
fputs($poppass_handle, "newpass $newpass \r\n");
$tmpc = fgets($poppass_handle, 3 );
$tmpd = fgets($poppass_handle, 3 );
#500 is first 3 characters returned by the poppassd
#daemon if current password is incorrect
if ($tmpc == 500)
{
echo "The Current Password you entered is incorrect ";
echo "Please go back and change your password again. " ;
}
else
{
echo "Password Changed Sucessfully" ;
}
}
# now done with it close the connection
fclose ($poppass_handle)
?>

Thanks,

Re: Validating passwords via perl, Lil help please!
That is basically what I have now to see if the user exists, but I can't use
this because I'm using shadow passwords, the only thing that is in position
2 of /etc/passwd is x. So, anyone know of any other ways that I can achieve
this? Thanks for the help though.

Validating passwords via perl, Lil help please!
Hello everyone, I'm working on creating a web-based password changer, but have been having some trouble with the password verification process. I have verified the the username entered is an acutal user on the system with getpwnam($uname), and that works, but how can I verify that the old password that they enter is correct? Anything would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Jake ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Re: MySQL
Ok, well, it's not my choice. My boss told me on Friday that he wan't to be using a MySQL database because it would be better. I don't ask questions. Right now, the perl scripts that I have wrote, write all the info to a plain text file. I know by using MySQL it would be more secure, but there are no reasons that I know of why it sould be more secure. I have our network locked down pretty tight, and the only people that have access to the actual text file is my boss and I. If it would be easier to just stick with what I know, perl, that would be great. When I compiled apache last time, I didn't include any perl options, so would I have to recompile it to add the DBI functions? answers to questions ... 1) the user enters data (general info, cc #, flight plans, etc.) and it writes it to a plain text file. 2) it's not using MySQL 3) Just so that it uses MySQL, all the data we currently have, and future data, needs to be converted into a MySQL database.

Re: MySQL
Ok, I have DBI-perl-bin installed, from a rpm, if that helps. And, yes, all connections are denied unless you specify the -u user and -p option. So that is good. If it would be easier to use PHP, what do I have to do to get that up and running? Difficult? I know that's going to take a little time to learn, but no biggie. Are there RPMS that I download for PHP, or do I have to recompile apache, again? :) Thanks for the help, Jake - Original Message - From: "Brian Ashe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, January 12, 2002 8:54 PM Subject: Re: MySQL > Jake, > > On Saturday 12 January 2002 08:24, you babbled something about: > > Hello everyone.

MySQL
Hello everyone. I am kinda disturbed about what my boss wants me to do. I have spent the past 6 months creating a web-based database all with perl scripts. It works great! But he now want's me to convert it to MySQL. I have MySQL installed, up and running. I can connect to it from the local machine. The problem is, what do I do now? I've read articles on using MySQL and PHP together for web access, but I don't have PHP installed. How else can I access the database? Say maybe using perl? Also, something else, maybe this is supposed to happen, when I type in the address, then the port for MySQL, it gives me this .. LÿjHost 'winxp.ministang.com' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server Is this supposed to happen? I think it is, because it doesn't have a web server built in, right? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Jake
Re: FTPd problems
No, I don't think it's a DNS problem. DNS is working fine. I can telnet into the machine fine. SSH works fine too. It's not a problem of connecting to the machine, it's a problem with wu-ftpd. I'm sure it's not in DNS. Thanks for the help, though. Jake On Tue, 24 Apr 2001, Mike A.

Here is what I have tried so far... cpp file.cpp cpp -lang-c++ file.cpp gcc file.cpp cc file.cpp I know that gcc and cc doesn't like c++, but I'd thought I'd try it anyway.

for the program to keep running even after you log off, you need nohup before the command. If you just use the &, it will put it in the background, but when you log off, it will kill the process.

Thanks, Jake ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
What exactly does this mean???
I just installed some more memory, and now this is happening when I boot, even when I try to boot to single user mode. INIT: PANIC: segmentation violation at 0x2ec54! sleeping for 30 seconds. It is in a loop of this, and won't stop! I let it sit for 2 hours and it was still doing the same thing. I didn't touch anything. I shut it down with shutdown -F -h now no big deal. Put in the new memory, powered back on. Bios finds all the memory, I didn't see if in the boot process it saw it or not, but then this started happening. What do I do?

Backspace
Does anyone know how to disable those ^H 's from showing when I hit the backspace key? It is very annoying. If I make an error logging in, I have to retype my username, instead of just backspacing to fix it. Also, it doesn't show up on my other machines, just my new one, with 6.2. Those ^H also show up when I make a mistake in mail. I have to ^C to get out and start over.

Apache problem
I have been configuring my new box and have been having some problems. Where are the files that are called when linux boots? I know about the rc.d directory and how that works, but I've looked all over for where the line "/etc/httpd" is in the init files. I am moving all web stuff into /home/web and when I do this, Linux still looks for the files in /etc/httpd. I have to be missing something somewhere, but WHAT?

6.2 FTP Install Directions
Setup a ftp server either on the windows box or on another linux box and point it to the cdrom drive. I've found that it HAS to be an anonymous user with no password, other wise it just says it can't find the files. Then you make a boot disk from bootnet.img from the cd. Then boot the upcoming computer with the bootdisk you just made. Do a text install, I tried a GUI install and it just took me to text install anyway. Follow directions. It should automatically detect your NIC, it did mine anyway. Just type in IP of ftp server and when it asks you for directory, if your ftp'ed into the root directory of the cd, then put . as the directory. If I didn't explain good enough, let me know, I did this 3 times yesterday, I thought it kept locking up, but it is just slow. Took 2 hours to do the install. I have a 100 meg network between the two machines I was doing this with. The problem was that the upcoming computer is kinda slow (16 megs of ram, 2 500 meg harddrives, P75) The files were downloaded in an instant, but it took forever for them to unpack and install.

Installing 6.2 via ftp [SOLVED]
This was a brainfart on my part. I just tryed what I thought would work and it does. Made the bootdisk. Started my ftp client on win98 box, set up anonymous user because I didn't get a prompt for username or password, and ran install. Worked great. Sorry for the post, I just wasn't thinking.

Installing 6.2 via ftp
I just got my new linux box and am eager to get things rolling. I was following the list the past few days about installing without a cdrom drive. I have the same problem. I've worked with linux for about 3 years now, and this is the first time I'm installing other than with the actual cd. I saw in the list that I can put in the cd and ftp from the installing machine. I have my ftp client up and running and pointing at my cdrom drive, *note the machine with cd is win98*, and can ftp in and see cd. Now my question is, something else I've never done is boot from floppy, do I just boot from floppy and ftp to the win box? If that's it, how do I start the install program? Sorry if this is an easy one. And please get back to me soon, I want to get this thing running!.

web-based passwd change - MY SOLUTION!!!!
Ok, here ya go guys. This is what I put together for my users at work. Hope it
helps you in what you were trying to do.
the perl script goes in your htdocs/cgi-bin directory. The index.html page you
can change to your liking, it just uses a form and POSTs it to the perl script.
Like I said before, it's quit simple. Hope it helps you in what ever you were
trying to accomplish.

what happened to [RHL]
Why did the subject attachment dissappear? I loved that, it let me know where the message was coming from, because I'm on a lot of lists, and it really pops out with [RHL] in the subject. I thought it was a good idea. Jake McHenry [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
Re: ---- X server
Were there any posts to answer this? If there were, I didn't get them. This happened to me at one point, I reinstalled and it fixed it, but I would like to know, if there is one, another way to fix the problem.

Re: Redirection of URL
Place this in your section of index.html on foo.com http://www.foo.com/"> This will immediatly send the person trying to access the foo.com to www.foo.com or you could set the "content=X;" value to a higher number for a delay, incase you would want to post a redirect message to the people.

win telnet client for linux boxen & mc
I downloaded and tried putty, like someone said, but it doesn't seem to work. In Secure CRT I connect to my SSH2 server, in putty it only has ssh, is that why it doesn't work? When I run putty.exe, I put in the address to my box, and click open, and a dos window pops up and goes away immediatly, and nothing happens after that. I think I'm still going to stick with Secure CRT, since I've been using it for about 2 years, and I bought it, and it works for me, without problems.

Thank you very much. That is exactly what I was looking for that I could not remember.

Re: win telnet client for linux boxen & mc
I have always, and always will, use Secure CRT, from Vandyke Software. They also have the regular CRT which is cheaper, but without the SSH support. http://www.vandyke.com my $.02 Jake McHenry [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.
Problem with changing displayed names
I used to know how to do this, but have forgotten the what the name of the file was that did this. As I've been cleaning my system of users no longer here, I've been noticing accounts that name's do not match the login name. I know that there is a file that allows anyone to do this, and I want to change the owner to root, so only I can do it. Sorry if this is an easy one, but I forgot what is was called.
