Re: [expert] 2.4 and ReiserFS
Seems things have changed a bit.. but here is QA from reiserfs homepage FAQ Q. Can reiserfs be used as a root partition? A. Yes, but you must mount /boot with the -notail option.

RE: [expert] 2.4 and ReiserFS
you can't have / as a reiserfs filesystem. everything else can be. If you go to the resierfs website, the install docs say so explicitly. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Anton Graham Sent: Saturday, December 23, 2000 12:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [expert] 2.4 and ReiserFS Submitted 23-Dec-00 by Reggie Burnett: > How do I install the 2.4 RPM on a Reiser system and have it work?

Re: [expert] How is PHP configured?
uncomment the lines.. also look for a Loadmodule phpXXX I'm not sure which version of apache/php mdk ships with so couldn't tell u what the number will be after the loadmodule.. but probably LoadModule but for me it's LoadModule php4_modulelibexec/libphp4.so this needs to be uncommented, along with the addtypes etc. after that, head over to php.net or zend.com for tutorials on PHP. you might want to also checkout deskcode.com.. new site.. has some promise.

Re: [expert] /etc/login.defs
basically what I want to do is allow only people who belong to the wheel group, to be able to use the command su. as for the getpass_asterisks, it means it will echo 3 asterisks for each keystroke when you're entering your password. just to confuse you and anyone else looking over your shoulder :) I'm not paranoid.. :).

Re: [expert] Telnet refuses to connect
are you trying to telnet out or into your machine ? if you get this message when you try to telnet to your machine.. check if you have inetd running. ps -aux | grep inetd should tell you. if it's not running then you need to start it and make sure it starts at boot time. start drakconf, and then select the startup options, make sure inet is checked. Another thing u should check for is the security level, if security level is at 3 (high). inet won't start at boot time, unless you force it to. if you get this message when you're trying to telnet outside.. then it's probably because that ip closed telnet off.. or you're trying to connect to to a diff port.. contact the admin of that host to figure what he changed. there can be too many things on that. :) On 13 Dec 2000 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I bought Linux-Mandrake 7.2 (Odyssey) couple weeks ago.

[expert] /etc/login.defs
I have question about the /etc/login.defs that ships with mdk 7.2 how come when I enter the following lines : SU_WHEEL_ONLY yes GETPASS_ASTERISKS 3 they are ignored ? I've been a slack user for 5 yrs now, they work fine in slack.. I'm guessing it has to do with diff versions of login being used.. so does anyone know what he equivalents are for mdk ? secondly.. does anyone have a policy file for Tripwire ? the default tripwire gives is for mostly rhat systems..
