[expert] mod_auth_mysql does not work with LM8.0...
I use mod_auth_mysql as a dso module on most of the systems that I setup because it is easier to use MySQL for user administration. But mow that I have switched to Mandrake 8.0 (insted of 7.2) and I cant get it to work. I have written instructions for getting it to work with LM7.2 but they don't work with 8.0??

[expert] strange SIGHUP
Hi all, I have a minor problem in an otherwise perfect system, This is my test box, it has Samba2.2.1a, postfix20010709 and kernel 2.2.19-4.1mdksecure all of those are working great, I have amavis working, and file and printer sharing,,, no problems anywhere except for pppd... for some strange reason, roughly 30 minutes into a connection, something sends pppd a SIGHUP,, and as such it closes the connection,, I can find no obvious reason for this, and I was wondering if there is a way to trace back to what sent the SIGHUP.. the log reads as follows.: pppd Hangup (SIGHUP) pppd Modem Hangup pppd connection terminated. pppd Connect time 32.9 minutes. pppd sent bytes received bytes pppd Exit Thats all the feedback I am getting.. It seems to do the same with Kppp as it does using scripts with ipup ppp0 So whatever it is, its directly effecting pppd, not the app that invokes it... Anyone got any ideas of what I can do to find out what is killing it? and why is it doing it every half hour? (there was an instance of cron hourly just before the above, but /etc/cron-hourly is completely empty, so its not doing anything.) there doesn't appear to be any other reference to anything I can find that might be causing it... rgds Frank
Re: [expert] How to change IRQ number????
Assuming this device is plug-n-pray you might see if conf.modules could be used to set the irq. If an alias statement exists to load the driver you can probably set options as follows: options driver_name irq=## io=0x### alias device driver_name I have a desktop system (with the drivers but without any pcmcia devices actually in use) that uses a pre-install statement for the pcmcia_core driver. I don't know if you can use the same method to set operating paramenters or not. Another possibility would be the /etc/sysconfig/pcmcia file (at least on redhat type systems) which you might be able to use for this purpose. I don't have any settings like this on the one laptop I have linux running on but then it doesn't have any sound devices to conflict either. Hope this helps (and isn't a wild goose chase). -- Mike Rambo [EMAIL PROTECTED] X - A - W - K wrote: Hi, I have LM 8.0 on my laptop and I have problems with PCMCIA card.

[expert] GCC 3.0 install failure
Im trying to upgrade to GCC 3.0 (because 2.96 is buggy). Whenever I try to make it (using make --bootstrap) I get preprocessor errors and the make fails. Is this a known problem, or is it just me? Any help would be appreciated. Cheers, Jesse
[expert] tinyfirewall - Bastille customization?
He everyone. I have not done any real FW stuff since working with ipchains. I am working on getting a couple of MDK 8 boxen ready for the world and I have a couple of questions about the firewalling that is installed by default. I have looked over some of the official mandrake sites and don't find the details that I need. 1. Tineyfirewall is nice, but I need to add come custom rules for specific hosts/networks. Can I do that? 2. What is the relationship between tinyfirewall and Bastille-firewall, which also seems to be installed on the system. 3. Assuming that someday this might be handed off to a non-linux lover, what would be the best step to take from this configuration to one that they could manage with a gui? I had luck working with gfcc under ipchains when things had to be passed off to non-experts, is there a similar solution that plays nicely under 8 with iptables? Thanks for any advice. --chris
Re: [expert] bastille problems
Hi, On LM 8 you can use tinyfirewall to configure bastille-firewall. If you have LM8 MandrakeFreq, you must first update the iptables rpm from cooker, or firewall will not work (there is a problem with the modules version) Salu2, óscar.

[expert] VERY strange pppd error. never seen this before...

(the ISP uses a strange method of kicking people off when they have been on longest during peak periods.) anyway, when I went to reconnect it,, I got the above message... I am not sure, but I think the problem is at the ISP's end,, although I can connect with my windows 2000 notebook.. I have a suspecision that their kick method doesn't work with linux, it stops your connection from getting out, but it doesn't cut the connection altogether like it does in windows... They wouldn't like that and may have disabled me from logging in using linux somehow. Does anyone know about this? rgds Frank

Re: [expert] Ext2 - ReiserFS ?
I've been running ReiserFS eversince mandrake 7.2 first came out, and I have to say taht I've had no problems. After a dirty shutdown or a power failure, everything swings back up with no worries. I haven't seen any data corruption or loss of data. Currently I run it on 3 4.3 GB SCSI drives, 1 18 GB SCSI drive, and 1 20 GB IDE drive, no worries on any of them. This filesystem is fantastic.

Re: [expert] Ext2 - ReiserFS ?
Dave, Just so as to obviate any confusion about this issue. The chmod command is used to change file permissions or make a file executeable, or !executeable. This is usually done by entering the chmod command and an octal number as a switch giving us the desired file permissions based on our umask. File attributes are a bit different: we use a chattr command with the desired switch to add a extra level of security to files or directories. Try a man on chattr, and I think this will be a bit clearer to you. We can also do a lsattr command to least file attributes. As a matter of fact, you could go to a file, any file, created on your ReiserFS, and run the command lsattr on that file, and let me know what you see.

Re: [expert] Ext2 - ReiserFS ?
Thanks Bruce, As I suspected, file attributes are still only supported by ext2 file systems. I would suppose that, like the other UNIX JFS, it will only be a matter of time until ReiserFS supports this _very_ important function too. Thanks for the help, drjung Bruce E.
