[e-smith-devinfo] hdparm
Hi all, Yesterday I reinstalled my e-smith server and upgraded it to SME server v5.0...yesyes...that's not shocking at all I guess :) But...and that's my question...is e-smith/sme server capable to auto detect if my harddisk can be run with hdparm (which is a sort of DMA I guess?)?? In the past I installed e-smith 4.1.2 and there I could enable hdparm and it was working quite well. Why is it now disabled by default and why can I not choose to enable it at a new setup?? How can I enable it afterwards??

But I did have the same problem that Richard Ford hadVaction did not work.

Just to make sure I did a chown back to dean:dean (the user) and vacation stopped again. I then did a full uninstall of all three packages. Removed the 2 .vacation files and then re-installed the 3 packages. Everything appeared to be working. I enabled vacation for my test user again. (From the User-panel) and I sent 1 test message to it. I got the approriate response. I then disabled it and re-enabled it and is stopped working again.

RE: [e-smith-devinfo] My Samba howtos
Second, the add user script on the first completely bypasses the normal e-smith mechanisms and works for some users, while the add user script from the second one tries to use the e-smith way and doesn't seem to work for anybody. The method that you outline in your howto that bypasses the e-smith way of doing things should work for 95%+ of users provided Samba is in fact running as a PDC and two things happen on the client machine when joining the domain: 1. The user MUST be logged on the Win NT/2000 machine as the administrator. 2. When prompted to authenticate addition the machine to the domain, the user MUST input the root username and password. The e-smith admin account, or any other for that matter, will not work. If the user neglects to do either of the above, Windows will report a totally unrelated error message and the machine will not be added to the domain (This error message reported will likely get better over time as the Samba team reverse engineers more and more of the Win 2000 RPC specs) Further, I think the bypass approach is the better one as it seems more inline with my understanding of the development path of Samba. It's my understanding that the Samba team plans to build functionality into Samba to remove machine accounts from smbpasswd and passwd when a machine leaves the domain. I'm not very familiar with the scripts that Mitel has developed to add machines accounts, but I would hate for these accounts to show up in the server manager along with user accounts (as often happens with X Window user account apps). It would really clutter things. Regards, Greg J. Zartman, P.E.

IANAL, yes. If I install qmail as per make install and sell or distribute a system, this is obviously not a license violation. IANAL, correct. Now, what happens if once this system is installed at a user's site, the user then elects to modify it so that qmail is not in a make install state? Has the user violated the license? Is this not allowed, perhaps to replace a script or binary with one of their own making, or to relocate a utility to another path? Yes, users are completely at liberty to modify their own systems. The restriction is on _distributing_ a modified qmail. If the above is not disallowed, then is it a license violation for an application installed by the user subsequent to qmail to make a similar modification? I don't believe so. I believe that what RAV is doing is fine, as long as the end-user chooses to install it. Bundling RAV (and thus bundling a modification to qmail) would be a problem. If qmail is installed, and RAV is installed, and then the system delivered, and then the user chooses to run an RPM that makes the two work together -- I fail to see how this is a problem. I can see the problem if the two packages and installed and integrated prior to distribution, but one in the user's possession it seems odd that it would be any kind of license violation. IANAL, but correct. The issue is _user_ choice. If a user chooses to install something which modifies qmail, that is their choice. And, of course, I could be wrong. I'm mostly just curious as I've heard many times how restrictive the qmail license is.

[e-smith-devinfo] Blades Suggestion
I'd like to make a suggestion with regards to Blades. Would it be useful to have an option in this interface to a Blade in the even that something bad happens during the install?. Suppose my power goes out or something goofy like that right in the middle of installing a blade. Do I have a half installed blade or does the blade install routine take interrupted installs into account? I guess I'm speaking pretty much on speculation as to how Blades actually work, but I would guess that like most install routines, nothings bomb proof. Greg J. Zartman, P.E.

[e-smith-devinfo] Shutdown problems
I'm having a problem with shutdown, if I shutdown the system when its almost time for the PC to shutdown power (its an ATX system) I get an error filing the monitor, looks like a memory dump to me. After that I press CTRL-ALT-DEL and the system reboots, by turning of power at this time the system doesn't have any damage. I've had these problems from the first time I installed e-smith (ver 4.1.2), SME 5 doesn't solve it. I've tried various things, the error even occurs on a freshly installed system that is NOT configured. I also changed the hardware a couple of times (even the powersuply to AT, the main board supports AT and ATX). Only things I didn't change is Main board, CPU and Harddrive. Any one have an id how to solve my problem? Its not really important, just irritates me. Could it be the onboard USB? How can i disable the USB device, at startup USB is started (USB-UHCI) But I don't want that, I don't need it.

RE: [e-smith-devinfo] Shutdown problems
Check in your BIOS to disable USB. Try a different system board. That should do it.

My guess is older hardware was the cause. No, it was reported to cause file corruption problems even on some new hardware. Consistent with our simple and reliable above all else philosophy, we have disabled it by default and (for simplicity) removed it from the user interface. In our experience, server performance is only rarely limited by disk performance. The performance tweaking option is still there for those who know and care.

By chance has there been any changes to the mail subsystem that may have effected the ability for procmail to work? Not any that was not a side effect of upgrading to the latest available RedHat packages. As you have reported elsewhere, the full path name is required if you create .qmail files which execute procmail. In any case, for security reasons, it is always wise to specify full path names.

[e-smith-devinfo] quoting issue again!
I follow this mailing list with big interest, and my e-smith server have been better, faster, more stabile from all the good hints,tips and tricks that a few guys take their time to give us (thanks god for guys like Darrel May, Charlie Brady). Ok, i hate beeing a pain-in-the-ass i have said if before, and i say it again. Some of you oughta learn howto quote msgs. Most of the people here DO NOT want to see one singel line qouted line followed with 500 lines under. That is so annoying. Not to mention the cost for some guys in Australia, that just resently, now are forced to pay per megabytes downloaded.

[e-smith-devinfo] phpMyAdmin 2.2.0
Hi everybody, My apologizes if this is not the correct list for this to be posted in. Darrell May, the phpmyadmin rpm's that you created works like a charm, Great work! I was wondering if there was a way to add mysql users through the phpmyadmin or do I need to learn how to do it by hand? If i have to do it by hand would someone please post the syntax that i need to use just to add users? I don't think that I need to learn all of the functionality of mysql just to run my small site, ( i say that now,but it will be a different story when my database crashes... lol ) I think all that i need is to no how to add users and what kind of permissions those users need to have, because I agree that not every user needs my root password! thanks in advance for any assistance. Randy Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] PS: Is anybody considering making phpmyadmin a blade for the new sme 5.0 and some how integrating it into the regular e-smith-manager?

Well, AFAIK, phpMyAdmin doesn't include a front end for adding users, but it will allow you to execute arbitrary SQL commands. So, I guess the answer is yes, you can add users through phpMyAdmin, but you'll need to learn the syntax. Fortunately, the syntax is very simple: mysql grant all on database.* to user@localhost identified by 'password'; ...where database, user, and password all represent the obvious, and you do use the single quotes around password. Is anybody considering making phpmyadmin a blade for the new sme 5.0 and I expect once the documentation on the blade architecture is released, somebody will be working on this. -- Dan Brown, KE6MKS, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Meddle not in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup. -- Please report bugs to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] (only) to discuss security issues Support for registered customers and partners to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives by mail and http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo%40lists.e-smith.org
