[RH6.1]: SMTP connect to localhost failed ??
RH6.1, last full update about 2 weeks ago. I've started to get a situation where outgoing mail is no problem, but incoming mail fails (fetchmail, direct from other machines on the LAN) with the message: SMTP connect to localhost failed A week or so ago, I started getting these messages, and they lasted for a couple of days. Then, as mysteriously as the trouble appeared, it disappeared. Now, it's started again. My pattern of usage on the machine hasn't changed for quite sometime, and I haven't a clue as to what is going on. Any ideas on the matter would be appreciated. Thank you. - Martin J.

RE: 2.4.0-test10 kernel compilation
What version of modutils are you using? Take a look at Documentation/Changes in your 2.4 source tree, it lists some important information about software versions when running the 2.4 kernels. Also, there are many known issues when compiling 2.4 kernels with gcc 2.96. In other words, don't do it. If your going to compile any kernel in RH7, I would highly recommend using kgcc. You can install it via rpm. Hope this helps.

In your /etc/hosts.deny file in.ftpd: 64.45.30.177 # block this specific ip address or in.ftpd: 64.45.30.# block everyone on this subnet Also, this looks like someone came in as ftpd8565, is that an account on the box?? Jason Good morning everyone! Thank you all for the help yesterday with my hacker attempt. I have (yet another) question Does anyone know why I have ftp login's in the middle of the night?? ftp ftpd8565 64.45.30.177 Fri Nov 10 03:51 - 03:53 (00:02) I disabled the account "ftp" in userconf yesterday to cut down on problems, but this one obviously came early this morning...

cdrom-mount issue
I recently purchased a CD-rw device. I installed it. The CD subsequently was able to be mounted properly and info read off of appropriate type of CD's. It also played music correctly. I tried that night to enable its "write" feature that night. I was unsuccessful. While getting ready to revisit it a few days later,I noticed now I cannot mount a CD nor play music from it. I have tried all various mounting commands of which I am aware. I continually receive the same error message, to wit: '/dev/cdrom is not a valid block device' I believe it likely that while 'messing' with it and attempting to enable the write features of the cd/player, I somehow screwed up its existing capabilities.

Re: Primary and Alternate Web Site
On Thu, 9 Nov 2000, Ed Lazor wrote: What you need is the second server to assume the primary server's IP address. What if they the two servers are at different ISP's? This is a sticky problem, one that I've been working on for a year (off and on). When a DNS entry points to more than one IP address, the server typically alternates between the IPs for each request. Unfortunately, the root servers do the same thing, meaning the term Primary Name Server as used by Network Solutions and company is wrong, the root servers point requests to ALL the name server entries for a domain. They do NOT check to see if a name server is up before responding (which makes sense, there are way too many name servers out there to be doing that). If the goal is strictly high availability, not load balancing, it could be handled with DNS. First, make each server the primary. In other words, both machines should act like they are the proper server. Let's call them A and B, though you could have A,B,C and D, etc. Setup DNS such that A and B are both authoritative, ie, the root DNS servers list A and B as name servers. Then config A's DNS such that www.some.where points to A and B's DNS so that www.some.where points to B. When a web request is made, the client will first have to resolve the DNS, which will control which server is eventually accessed. If the client can't reach A, it won't resolve www.some.where - A and will eventually have to ask B. Caveats: If you have a web-based application that tries to maintain state information, this will not work. Fail over time in the case that A dies is controlled by the time to live (TTL) of the DNS records.

It follows, then, that if Red Hat had used 2.95 as their compiler, they still would have included kgcc for linux 2.2.x, but _only_ for 2.2.x, as 2.4.0 would build fine with the newer compiler.

SUMMARY: printing directly to port 9100
I'm not done by far, but here's a quick summary for those who gave suggestions... Under Digital Unix the printing to port 9100 works correctly when the printcap prints to :lp=@205hp5si/hpnet:\ (where hpnet is 9100 is defined in /etc/services). The only problem here is the built-in accounting only accounts correctly for postscript and not PCL. And the add-on accounting script I have doesn't pass PCL jobs correctly. Under RH Linux 6.2, I added the printer direcly to port through RH Printtool, port 9100 is in /etc/services and it references a .config file under spool directory for the direct print information (contentsof .config: printer_ip=128.xxx.xxx.xxx, port=9100) (Printtool shows: printerDIRECT - Postscript printer at 128.xxx.xxx.xxx:9100) and it still doesn't work. and RH Printtool is used to So... instead of fighting with a custom way of fooling with it...

Thanks! --Dan Ok... I'm trying to setup print accounting that will work with both postscript from unix and PCL files from samba sending to the same unix queue. (It appears that accounting that's normally built in usually only works correctly with postscript files, and it has to be directly to the printer port, not remote). I've been wrestling with this for a year now in my off time in both Dec Unix and RH Linux. I'd really appreciate any help so I dont get yelled at anymore. First step is to get printing working direcly to HP jetdirect port 9100. I can telnet to printer:9100 and get a response, but when the printer is setup, jobs aren't printing... either they disappear with no log they went in or out, or they sit in the queue. I was just trying to see if the "as shipped" lpd would do accounting right for PS PCL. Perhaps I should ditch lpd and go straight to using LPRng?

The last thing to consider is upgrading applications such as BIND/Apache. Check the routing on the server when it 'fails', check the server logs on that machine, and *more* importantly, consider upgrading the kernel if you're running a stock 6.2 install.

Re: Smart Friendly CD-RW on Linux?
Hello Ed, I have the original SCSI adapter and the drive. How would you recommend I approach getting it setup? Writing CD's when using a SCSI R/W drive is really easy. Apart from the fact that somebody suggested that the SF host adapter might give you some trouble there is not much to getting this to work. Enable kudzu using setup/ntsysv. You can/should disable kudzu again after the boot. If things go well your SCSI adapter should be recognized at startup. Install cdrecord and maybe some frontend. Run cdrecord --scanbus and your drive should be recognized. Read the cdrecord documentation on how to burn a CD. Usually you use a command like cdrecord -v -speed=speed dev=x,y,z cdimage Bye, Leonard. ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

I still think it's worth evaluating because it also has a program called Konqueror Web Browser. It works much like Windows IE5, only better in certain features.

Re: OT: need help to verify email header info.........
Just about any part of the headers (right down to the machine IP address) can be spoofed/forged on any machine where the email has passed through. The SMTP protocol lays out the whole thing about the headers, I believe:) but unless it's a widescale problem or just a problem on the last host the email went through, then it should be distinguishable. Sometimes (usually, even) just one entry in the headers isn't enough.

Re: mail aliases
well - as per your subject line this file is to store mail aliases - ie. addresses on your mail server that aren't real account - just pointers that redirect mail to other accounts. you should read the aliases man page for more helpful information: man aliases HTH - dan.

Re: (no subject)
Very tricky Bernhard... but it's going to get a bit annoying if you keep bouncing messages containing HTML formatting coming from the list... specially with the number of newbies joining the list every day. Please disable this feature for your listserve mail - or ifyou want to keep using it make sure you bounce the message to the sender, not the list... either that or don't be surprised that next time you post a message to the list you find no-one responds as they're all filtering mail from you to the trash... to stop these messages! :) thanks! dan.

Re: (no subject)
Are these messages necessary? This is just as much spam as HTML formatted emails. On Sat, 11 Nov 2000, Bernhard R.

RE: [OT] serial protocol analyzer
I had a need for something like this - I modified a serial cable such that it had four connectors: DB9#1 goes to device A DB9#2 goes to device B DB9#3 and DB9#4 goes to a "monitoring" system on COM1 and COM2 #1 TX is connected to #2 RX AND #3 RX #1 RX is connected to #2 TX #2 TX is connected to #1 RX AND #4 RX #2 RX is connected to #1 TX #3 RX is tapped to #1 TX #3 TX is not connected #4 RX is tapped to #2 TX #4 TX is not connected Connect signal ground on each to each and monitor using a terminal emulator - Most terminal emulators have the ability to display rather than interpret control characters and escape sequences. You can see what is passing in both directions on the serial cable without affecting it, while not affecting the data stream. What you do not get is timestamp data. Or you can buy serial line monitors that do all this and more. Hope this helps. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Leonard den Ottolander Sent: Thursday, November 09, 2000 1:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [OT] serial protocol analyzer Hello everybody, I was wondering if somebody could point me out a serial protocol analyzer. Maybe analyzer is too big a word for what I am looking for (I could be the analyzer:) ). What I am thinking of is a piece of software that listens on two serial devices, and mimics input from either to the other, in the mean time dumping and/or analyzing the traffic. To be concrete: I want to put a box with this piece of software between another box and its modem to analyze the traffic.
