If you use KDE as windows manager ;
you must edit the file /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config
just comment the last line.

Maybe You should try to check servers /etc/hosts.allow and

I am truly sad to see you go, even though I am sure we will still benefit
from your input *somewhere* in the community. I cannot say getting of this
particular list is a bad thing, although it is a pretty good list as far as
relative high volume lists go (I liked the smartlist version better :-))

I think a lot of us get to a fork in the road where other things *must*
become more important, or at least should not take a back seat most of the
time. I wish you well in whatever you end up doing. I hope you stay contact
able off list and do not give it all away 100% at any time, all the best...

Re: Problem compiling third-party apps

2000-11-28 Thread Linux User

[jimh@garfield jimh]$ rpm -qf /usr/include/linux/param.h 
/usr/include/asm/socket.h /usr/include/asm/sigcontext.h
kernel-headers-2.4.0-0.26
kernel-headers-2.4.0-0.26

Looks like all 3 files are included in the kernel-headers rpm, however I 
am not compiling programs against these headers. I removed the asm and 
linux directories in /usr/include and added symlinks pointing to the 
source for the kernel version I am running. That way everything is 
compiled against the kernel I'm using, currently 2.4.0-test11.

Nope...still having problems.

S'ok, I guess...I'll probably try it connected directly to the

JetDirect card works fine.

I probably need to replace the print server unit...that's my guess.

Apache using wrong SSL servername, but where is it's getting it from?

2000-11-28 Thread Jonathan Wilson

Howdy,

I've just gone through the steps, I think , of setting up Apache on RH 6.2 to use 
mod_ssl. But I noticed something odd: when starting up, it reports the wrong 
servername for the ssl virtual host. It is obviously my fault - I put a typo in it. 
what gets me is, I grepd through all the files, including the various certificates, 
and I can't find that typo anywhere. So, when you type 

"/etc/rc.d/init.d/httpd start" 

and you see 

"Shutting down http:[FAILED]
Starting httpd: 
Apache/1.3.14 mod_ssl/2.7.1 (Pass Phrase Dialog)
Some of your private key files are encrypted for security reasons.
In order to read them you have to provide us with the pass phrases.

Server my-typoed-domain.com:443 (RSA)
Enter pass phrase:
   [  OK  ]"

WHERE is it getting that "Server my-typoed-domain" name from? From httped.conf, from 
one of the certificates or where?

Thanks,

ldap design

2000-11-28 Thread Corisen

Hi,

After much advice from all helpful folks here, I've managed to come out with
an initial design.

1. I'm thinking of designing my name space design as shown below. Any
advice/comment is greatly appreciated.

dn: dc=company, dc=com
objectclass: dcobject
dc: company

dn: ou=departments,dc=company,dc=com
objectclass: organizationalunit
ou: departments

dn: ou=people,dc=company,dc=com
objectclass: organizationalunit
ou: people

dn: o=departmentName1, ou=departments,dc=company,dc=com
objectclass: organization
o: departmentName1

dn: o=departmentName2, ou=departments,dc=company,dc=com
objectclass: organization
o: departmentName2

dn: uid=username1,ou=people,dc=company,dc=com
objectclass: organizationalperson
objectclass: inetorgperson
uid: username1
cn: username1
o: depepartmenName1

dn: uid=username2,ou=people,dc=company,dc=com
objectclass: organizationalperson
objectclass: inetorgperson
uid: username2
cn: username2
o: depepartmenName2

2. Is sub-dividing departments and users using ou=people and ou=departments
recommended and the usual practice? Can I do without it or it's better to
have?

3. Is there any hierarchy between o and ou. I always thought that o should
be higher hierarchy than ou (i.e dn:
ou=department,o=department,dc=company,dc=com). Is this true? Any problem
using "dn: ou=department,o=department,dc=company,dc=com"? What is difference
for the following DNs design? Which is the recommended design pls?
dn: o=departmentname, ou=departments, dc=company,dc=com or
dn: ou=departmentname, o=departments, dc=company,dc=com or
dn: cn=departmentname, ou=department, dc=company,dc=com or
dn: cn=departmentname, o=department, dc=company,dc=com or

Many thanks for your time and advice.

Best Regards.

Ah ha. now you're onto something. This is the bit I don't understand. 

I have been using a single IP and NAT and a bit of port forwarding to
internal machines for a while now. I'm very confortable with that.
Recently I picked up the extra IPs, and have done aliasing of multiple IPs
on a single interface, but all the IPs on the same machine.

Now, with my new [planned] setup I am obviously confused! How would I get
my ISP to route to my gateway? What Ip would it need to be (i'm assuming
136), or does it not matter? 

>  By the way, you can't set an interface address to a range. I guess

yes, I understand this. This is what I have been doing up until now, at
least for http. This is why I was asking if there are ussues with ftp
(both client and server) doing it this way. I may very well end up doing
this, but doesn't this defeat the point of having a DMZ then?

>

ok, this was probably the crux of my questions. Just to be clear, are you
say that *yes* I can do this and the rule will apply to all 4 ips?

ipchains -A input -i eth1 -y -p TCP -d a.b.c.136/30 --destination-port
:1023 -j DENY -l

This is specificaly for the interface to the world on my firewall.

I'll tell you why I got into this. I setup a rule like this to deny all
traffic to ports below 1024 and log them. I inserted rules in front of
this to allow the traffic I wanted.

ipchains -A input -i eth1 -y -p TCP --destination-port :1023 -j DENY -l

Now, this worked great except I noticed a hell of a lot of traffic like
netbios, bootp etc getting logged. I don't want to log the broadcast stuff
and things I know will allways be goign on. I started down the road of
denying those without logging first, but then noticed that packets
destined for other hosts than mine were getting logged too. 

Anyway, so then I thought what I should be doing is *only* be looking at
the traffic that is destined for my box in the first place. And this is
how I go to wondering if I could use the 255.255.255.252 netmask to
specify all 4 in one rule.

136 and 139 are the network and broadcast addresses, so you can't reliably
use them for hosts with a netmask of 255.255.255.252. However, if you use
a larger netmask, you can certainly ROUTE to a /30 subnet using a Cisco
wildcard mask of 0.0.0.3.

 Sadly, you loose two addresses if you try subnetting. (You should have gotten 
yourself an 8 IP range ;) ). With your first setup you'ld have to route the 
subnet address(es), but your ISP does not route to your gateway, but to the 
specified addresses.
 By the way, you can't set an interface address to a range. I guess you'll end 
up aliasing the external interface of the gateway with the 4 IP addresses and 
forwarding the necessary ports.

 P.S. For the ipchains rules you can use the network/netmask pair, as you 
probably usually do.

Exporting routing protocol learnt routes to the Linux IP stack

2000-11-28 Thread Rajesh Kumar

I'm running a routing protocol in user space. The IP stack will
be the Linux IP stack In this background I have the
following questions:

(1) Is it possible to export the routes learnt by my routing
process to be known to the Linux IP stack so that the IP stack
can forward based on this learning?
Also - is there a way other than "route add" calls to do this?
Using system calls can be very slow.

(2) How is the Linux IP routing table is structured and how
should the routing process make its routes known into this
routing table?

If you have any suggestions in this regard - about running
the routing process in user or kernel space, etc.. those are very
welcome too.

Any approaches/clues/pointers on this would help greatly.

Thanks
Rajesh

Matrox G450 Driver

I'm looking for it now, but I figured I'd pass this by you.

Does anyone have the Matrox G450 Driver compile for RH7.0 and any
directions on how to get it running?  The problem I have is that I have
an installed copy of RH70 and I don't want to have to install the source
to compile the driver and all I have is source for the driver. Plus, all
the directions are for installing under 6.2.  And never mind the
problems I've had trying to get a kernel to compile under 7.0 (Never
have gotten it to work), so I don't know if it would compile anyways. 
Needless to say, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: network problems

2000-11-28 Thread Luke C Gavel

Hi,

I just wanted to clarify one tiny thing for lurking newbies.
There is a difference between `ifup' and `ifconfig' commands.  
`ifup' is a shell script that enables some extra paramators and
interface configurations that are generated by linuxconf,
netconf, or netcfg.  You will find within the 'ifup' shell script
that it is necessary to use `ifconfig' several times to set up
extra information such as gateways, networking protocols, and
other such things.

Best Regards,
L.G.

subnetting question

2000-11-28 Thread Charles Galpin

Hi

I have 4 IPs which I carefully made sure that they were in a
"subnetable" block when I got them from my ISP. The original intention was
to be able to play with networking, but to possibly make my life easier
down the road when I need to specify them as a group (using a mask).

I have a.b.c.136 - a.b.c.139 which can be written a.b.c.136/30 (netmask
255.255.255.252)

If I've screwed something up already, please stop me here!

I have a single linux box setup a a gateway that will be routing these Ips
into 1 or more internal (NATed) networks (i'm also thinking about setting
up a DMZ, but have questions regarding this).

Questions please:

1. On the firewall I have been using a netmask of 255.255.255.0. I am
logging a lot of the packets I am denying, and because I am not specifying
a destination address, I'm seeing a lot of junk I'd rather nto see. Since
I'm only interested in packets that would be routed to me, can I use
a.b.c.136/30 as a destination (-d)? I ask because I'm not 100% sure if
this renders 136 and 139 useless sicne they are the network and broadcast
addresses for this subnet.

2. Can I use 255.255.255.252 for the subnet on this interface? Thsi would
bode well with my firewall script since it currently gets the mask from
ifconfig anyway.

3. If I were to setup a DMZ, can I do it with just 4 IPs? A friend was
having problems running an FTP server when using non routable IPs between
the gateway and the DMZ boxes - but I may be way off base here.

So, I image doinf soemthing like this

   internet
  |
 a.b.c.136/30
  |

|   |
|   gateway/firewall|
|   |   

|   |
192.168.1.1 a.b.c.137
|   |
home LANDMZ
192.168.1.x a.b.c.138, a.b.c.139


Now, am I fooling myself here, or is this doable?

How about if I used 192.1.68.1.x for the DMZ and just used port forwarding
to the DMZ hosts? That would make more of my IPs available. Like this:


   internet
  |
 a.b.c.136/30
  |

|   |
|   gateway/firewall|
|   |

|   |
192.168.1.1 192.168.2.1
|   |
home LANDMZ (web/ftp/yada/yada servers)
192.168.1.x 192.168..x

Again, my specific concern is that I don't want to have issues with ftp
(or other critical services)

thanks
charles

Re: subnetting question

2000-11-28 Thread Fred Edmister

 Probably the easiest way to connect them all together would be 
just use the IPs and the netmask as you've been given, and also use your 
ISP's gateway instead of trying to create one of your own.  (since gateways 
are usually routers or routable systems... this will take a lot of headache 
away... )  Something else to keep in mind, if you have multiple cards in 
any system, and that system is connected to the internet directly (or any 
of them are) and it has a remaining private IP address (i.e. 192.168.0.1) 
this will sometimes bring down all interfaces (real or private) due to a 
conflict in IP address...

 This is what worked for me and my network.  Hope this helps!

To check everything involved with your network configuration, run
the following command as root:

netcfg

Be sure and set xhosts so that root can display to your X display session.

It is easier to use netcfg, than to find each of the individual config
files.

It didn't work because that shoudl be two lines

/sbin/ifconfig eth0 up


But, the ONBOOT parameter is better. Also, ifup eth0 is shorter to type :)

tightening firewall (was Re: Port education required)

2000-11-28 Thread Charles Galpin

Hi Mikkel

I've dug up an old email I had saved since I am finally getting around to
setting up a new firewall for myself. I'd like to take the approach of
shutting off *everything* and then only opening up those that I need to -
including the >1023 range. I have a few questions if you don't mind
please.

Isn't this what a real stateful firewall does? I thought this couldn't be
done with ipchains. How do you do this?

Now this I understand! I like it. Would you be willing to share the
rest of your firewall rules? I like to think it will save me a lot of time
figuring out what ports get used by what services (yes I have looked at
http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/port-numbers).

Also, care to comment on the whether to REJECT or DENY packets? I remember
you saying it's best to REJECT for ident/auth, but is it best to DENY for
all the others? I believe I understand the difference well enough. My
current feeling is that DENY is better simply because you are not drawing
attention to yourself (by not responding).

On a related note, can anyone tell me what this port is
used for

svrloc  427/tcpServer Location
svrloc  427/udpServer Location

thanks

communicator & CO

2000-11-28 Thread thomas schönhoff

Hello all,
I have just read the thread concerning the use of communicator. At the
moment there are no similar problems on my maschine, but I remembered
looking for an alternative to Netscape which formerly brought a lot of
trouble from time to time (including the described freeze of X)
Finally there has been a release of Opera which seems  to be much better
than Netscape will ever become! Does someone has experiences in using
this software on his/her PC under RH 7.0 to share.

Thanks
Thomas

Re: Memory refresh?

2000-11-28 Thread Michael Butler/CanEast/IBM

Typically most unix OS's do some smart file caching so that access is even
quicker. Some unix systems use other caching techniques such as translation
lookaside buffers, i.e. TLB's. Don't think RedHat does though.

 It is normal for memory to look used in this fashion. If you ever have an
doubt, start kicking off a few progams. You'll see that swap usage does not
go up.

Subject:  Memory refresh?


Hi!,
I have installed RedHat 7 on my AMD Atlhon 850MHz with 512M RAM.
No problem at during installation. I have only a simple question:
The memory-usage-applet indicates me that the memory used increase
during operations, that is normal, but if I close all running programs
and applications, the memory-usage level doesn't go back to the starting

level. Is it a bug or what?
Thanks!

Re: Setup

2000-11-28 Thread Catalin Gales

Hi !
Thanks for the answer . I'm using RedHat 6.0 2.2.5-15 on an Intel Pentium
200MMX with Courier external V Everything . I have installed the server
using the "server" option and all goes normally . I've setup /dev/modem and
ppp0 and the ppd daemon is up and running . The connection with the same
kind of modem on the ISP side is done periodicaly  and after few seconds is
dropped . In log/message there is something like ... dropped on LCP request
. I'm using AT commands in ppp0 setup : at&f&k2 and send CONNECT  in chat
fields . I think I should try to switch to leased line operation with modems
, but I don't know if in this case pppd must be stopped or anything else to
do . From ISP I received an Internet address and a name like myname.ISP.ro
which is set in /etc/HOSTNAME .
In this computer there is a Realtek network card which is working properly ,
with the address 10.xxx.xxx.xxx , netmask 255.255.248.0 .
On a Win 98 machine I've started downloading of ISO files for RH 7 , but it
takes some time to get it via the modem ... :( .
What can I do ?
Catalin

Well, there are two things I found:

a) When running Netscape 4.x, *do not enable Java* unless you *really*
   have to! Not having Java enabled does wonders for Netscape's
   stability, I found - on both Linux and Solaris.
b) Don't use Communicator but use the plain Navigator instead - saves
   some vital space at times it seems, and most external mail- and news
   programs are better anyway, IMO.

My EUR0.02,

Thomas

getting Xfree86 4.01 working with a Geforce 2 MX card

2000-11-28 Thread Evan Read

Hey all,

I just bought a new video card today.  Low an behold, the Geforce 
2 MX isn't supported by Xfree86 4 (at least not in the official incarnation). 
 I would like to keep the card (rather than upgrade to a GTS) so I 
need to get something working.  I read that Geforce 2 MX works from 
XFree86 4 CVS, but I don't want to bother with that.

Nvidia has some drivers it claims adds support for the card.  Unfortunately, 
the module chucks a fit (the kernal version is slightly out and there 
are all these AGP related unresolved symbols).  Has anyone got this 
to work with RH7?

If the above doesn't work, i would like to use 3.3.6 for the time 
being (I think it works - if I point X to /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_SVGA 
it brings up X but in 320 x 200 mode ;).  Can't seem to configurer 
it.  All the config utils repoint /etc/X11/X to /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 
(which is X4).  Has anyone done this (pointed backward)?

I would really appreciate any help I can get here.  Even if someone 
can point me toward the right information.

Please reply to me directly as well as to the list.

THanks
