Re: Linux Hardware

Re: Winmodem
1. Are you sure you have a winmodem? Check your documentation/users manual. You might also find the information at http://www.o2.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html useful. 2. Read the Modem-HOWTO. You should find it on your RedHat CD, or you can read it here: http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Modem-HOWTO.html 3. If you really have a winmodem, and you want a working modem under linux, then you're best off getting a new modem. Make sure you don't get another winmodem! 4. From my _limited_ experience: it's probably easiest to set up an external serial modem, if you get an internal modem look for an ISA modem with jumpers to setup interrupt, I/O port, etc (avoid plug-n-pray), avoid PCI and USB modems. 5.

ldap vs mysql
hi, i'm designing an web-based registration. there will be a drop down list on this web-based form to select the user's department. i've thought of 2 ways of dynamically populating the department drop-down list: 1. design the ldap name space to contain department name and limit the ldap query to one level (from root: dc=mycompany, dc=com) to retrieve all the departments: i.e. uid=username, o=departmentname, dc=mycompany, dc=com 2. store the department name in a mysql database and dynamically populate the drop-down list by querying mysql. my worries about method 1 is as follows: 1. if the department changes name, how can i update the dn of all the users under this department tree? 2. if a user change department, how can i update his dn to uid=username, o=newdept, dc=mycompany, dc=com? 3. how can i delete a department and all the entries under it's tree? 4. is including the o=department in the dn a good design? or should i just use "uid=username, dc=mycompany,dc=com"? 5. what are the pros and cons of using "o" in the dn? using method 2, the name space design is simpler: uid=username, dc=mycompany, dc=com. but i have to keep duplicate/two sets of department records. one in mysql and one in ldap. and they must be synchronise when any department is modified, deleted or added. i really have no idea what might be the complications for each method and which is a better way of designing. would really apprecaite some insight/advice from the experienced and knowledgeable ldap/mysql users in this mail list. thank you so much. ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

I'd recommend you pick up a good book on directory services, like _Understanding and Deploying LDAP Directory Services_ [Howes, Smith, Good].

If you want a full-featured browser (most of the included browsers like the one in KDE aren't complete yet), then I suggest looking at Opera. You can get a copy from www.opera.com.

Re: web browser
After much headache getting it downloaded, it finally downloaded and installed but missed a package (I don't know which one).. the setup process that followed was slow and annoying and isn't very navigable (you get stuck on one page and you can't go back and fix mistakes). When you do make a mistake and need to kill the process, there's no way of getting the installation going again without redownloading everything (if there is a way, then someone please tell me before I make one more attempt.. I've looked all over). I've found Mozilla and pre-releases of NS6 (and from what I actually have seen of NS6 so far) to be slow. There's something java-driven about the whole thing. Like, NS4 etc uses whatever it uses and it's fast. The Netscape developers, in all honesty, suck. One 13-14MB binary with everything included. One thing goes.. everything does (crash, freeze, etc)... not to mention the bug or two in the mail and news section that have existed in every version that I've ever used (bugs that are so obvious and annoying, and ones that I'm sure everyone has). They're also not easy to email in such a case. Anyway.. where was I? Oh yeah..

Re: Mozilla still refuses to run
Try this: run once as root first. Then try user account. If that does not work, delete ~/.mozilla. You may need to do a killall mozilla-bin in there too. HTH. Cute. One shouldn't have to do that.

Re: SMTP mail realy problem. Please help.
Reply to message from John N. Alegre on Fri, 24 Nov 2000, 19:39 -0600: Hi John, I am just a beginner to Linux, so perhaps I shouldn't dare trying to give hints how to fix a problem like this -- my apologies in anticipation therefore ... [ ... ] On the Macintosh I am trying to send mail by configuring the remote SMTP machine to the IP address of the machine running sendmail. I do this in the Netscape (or Eudora) preferences panel. However all attempts to send mail give this error: I had a problem similar to yours a week ago, too, with Netscape, here at home at my single-user box with Linux on it. And IIRC, after changing the mail-server settings in Netscape-Preferences I got the the same following error-messages from Netscape-Messenger when trying to send mail with it: An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ... Relaying denied Please check the message recipients and try again. IIRC I fixed this simply by changing Netscape's "Outgoing mail (SMTP) server" settings to the the *correct* values ... (or was it the "Incoming Mail Servers" setting I changed ...? I'm 95% sure it was the "outgoing" one ...) I hope it helps ...

Re: web browser
Hmmm... Netscape 6 installed flawlessly for me and seems, at least for now, to be faster and *less* buggy than the previous 4.x version. Not only that, the fonts seem to be well behaved and managable.

Re: ldap vs mysql
Thanks Thornton. Pls allow me to ask you 2 more questions. I'm most probably be using PHP to perform all LDAP administration. But if I don't change the "o=department" in the DN for all child entries when the department name changes, then would I still be able to perform a ldap search using the new department name as a base? i.e. can i still perform: ldapsearch -b "o=newdepartment, dc=company, dc=com" "uid=*"? say if I really want to change/update to "o=newdepartment" in DN for all child entries so that there's no obsolete info in the ldap database, can the ldapmodrrn be used also? Any idea if PHP API can change the dn of an entry? if i use only (without the o=department in dn): dn: uid=username, dc=company, dc=com objectclass o: department . (other attributes/values) can i query the ldap database and return only unique values(one value) for each department names? what is the command to do so? This is easy with the shell tool. The command: ldapsearch -b 'base dn' '(objectclass=organization)' o will retrieve all 'o' attribute values from all objects of class 'organization'. I tried the following: 1. created a dn: dc=company, dc=com entry 2. created a few users with dn: uid=username, dc=company, dc=com (note i'm trying without the o=department in the DN) but when i perform a "ldapsearch -b "dc=company,dc=com" "objectclass=organization" o, it will return the repeated departments of all entries: uid=user1, dc=company, dc=com o=department1 uid=user2, dc=company, dc=com o=department2 uid=user3, dc=company, dc=com o=department1 ---repeated uid=user4, dc=company, dc=com o=department2 ---repeated Actually, I'm trying to get only 1 value for each department: o=department1 o=department2 Any idea if it's possible using command line tool or using PHP?

The o value in the DN won't need to be changed, but if you use OpenLDAP, the o attribute in any child records will need to be changed individually, though doing this isn't really that hard. The ldapsearch tool can be used to find the records that need changin, and the ldapmodify command line tool can be used to modify their attributes, but you should consider using the Perl, Python, Java and C LDAP APIs for regular LDAP maintenence tasks like this. ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
How to turn on display of ALT text
OK, for those of you who have suggested the Mozilla browser over Netscape 4.75, how does one enable the display of the IMG ALT text? I use the ALT text to convey information about the images, or other misc text that is now not displayed. I can't find a preference to turn it on. Or is this a non-feature feature?

Netfinity 5000 Machine
I know that this is not the place for this, but I need help. I have been unemployed for about a year. I had purchased a IBM Netfinity 5000 PIII 500 (will support dual processors) at one point when I thought that I was going to get a business going. It did not come to happen, the money to start was not there. The machine is unused, it has been opened, but never turned on. I have the orginal box for it. I am not looking to make money on it. All I want is what I paid for it and the shipping to pay to send it to you. I have a listening of what is in the machine. If you are interested let me know. I can send it to you. AGAIN I AM SORRY for sending this out to the list(s). This is the only message that I will send. If you are interested in a price for it, please see me off the list. Thank you again.

bash script question (for loops)
Ok, I have some directories with spaces in the names: $ ls -1 Astral Projection/ Divinorum/ Fusion 19/ GoaArchive/ Starfire Records/ And I'm trying to write a bash script to modify files in each directory. The spaces are giving me problems. Here are two short bash scripts: LIST=*; echo $LIST; LIST=$(\ls); echo $LIST; Now, they both _seem_ to give the same output. It looks like this: Astral Projection Divinorum Fusion 19 GoaArchive Starfire Records Here are two more scripts, similar to the first 2: LIST=*; for NAME in $LIST; do echo "--" $NAME; done LIST=$(\ls); for NAME in $LIST; do echo "--" $NAME; done They give different output. The first one gives: -- Astral Projection -- Divinorum -- Fusion 19 -- GoaArchive -- Starfire Records and the second one gives: -- Astral -- Projection -- Divinorum -- Fusion -- 19 -- GoaArchive -- Starfire -- Records So, how do I get the second one to work like the first one? I've tried putting quotes around the filenames (\ls -Q), but it doesn't work. It still splits the names at the spaces. I will have other files alongside the directories later, so I can't just use the * version. Also, I know I could use the -exec flag on the find command, but I am having this problem with a few other for loops that I can't use find on, so I would really like to know how to get the for command to work.

Re: hub problems
any chance the cards are losing out between half and full duplex? Some cards are not auto select, and some hubs are and some aren't full duplex capable, though most of the full duplex card specs I've read say they will autoselect brian * At Sorry, I wasn't clear. I pinged from all 3 boxes with the same result. The salient fact is that it works with one hub perfectly and not TWO others (I just tried another brand of hub this morning) with the same settings. And none of the cables are attached to the uplink port of the hubs. Strange. Must be something internal to the hubs.
