X10 controller module

[Vidiot]

Anyone figure out the X10 Activehome PC interface module and get it
working under Linux?  Unfortunately it uses a serial port instead of a
TCP/IP connection.  Speaking of which, are there X10 style controllers
available for TCP/IP controlling?

Thanks for any info.

can I mount XP partitions?

[Bret Hughes]

can I mount an XP partition in linux?  I am running RH 7.2 (or is that
Red Hat Linux version 7.2).  I have not tried it since I don't really
know enough about windows to know if XP uses some sort of file system
that perhaps linux does not know about.  Here is the output of fdisk

[bhughes@bretsony bhughes]$ fdisk -v
fdisk v2.11f

[bhughes@bretsony bhughes]$ sudo fdisk -l

Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 1836 cylinders

if it is really FAT32 I should have no problems right?

any tips appreciated.

Absolutely right.  I just added my longer version because it also allows you
to manipulate the source code, change the SPEC file, etc.  Otherwise, simply
running with the "--rebuild" option does the job.

I think smb is not a trusted  protocol like ssh, https, imaps, pops.
As well client & server using smb are normaly most employed inside

nevertheless you can rewrite rules that involved port referent smb, (port

I think we now have the ear of someone who can speak more authoritatively
and reliably, and work sensible pricing.  He says they reall, really want
to get into the small offices--10-15 users ore less are greatly desired.
The main concern with the "home user" market has been support; cockpit
errors can eat support staff like popcorn.  I pointed out that the Linux
market generally supports its own, and as long as we could get a pipeline
into Sophos for those things that can't be solved without their help, we
could keep the drain on their organization down to virtually nil.  Also,
said I, remember--these people are often the ones also running the corporate
networks.  It would be a Good Thing to get them feeling kindly toward you.

The next step is to get some real queries and see what he really *can*
offer for licensing and such.

The new version of mailscanner can use one of 7 virus scanners including 
F-Prot which is free for linux users.  The next release will be able to 
use these scanners simultaneously if you have them all installed.  Some 
folks are concerned that when new viruses are found not all scanners are 
always updated at the same time.

I tried to deal with sophos but it was a total loss.  They wanted over 
$1000 Cdn for me to use their software for my home server with a grand

I'm just guessing, as I haven't used either application. I assume your 
using Gnome, and XMMS uses esd for sound? If not, continue on to the KDE 
description below. (I haven't used Gnome in quite a while, I believe it 
uses the esd sound server?)

If that's the case, perhaps esd has your sound device locked. When you 
pause the CD, the sound server probably times out, allowing access to the 
sound device. You might try starting gaim with 'esddsp gaim' 
usr/bin/esddsp is a shell script that tries to reroute sound to the sound 
server, rather than the sound device.

I do something similar under KDE with the arts sound server. Some 
(non-kde) things need to be started with 'artsdsp [application]' in order 
for sound to work reliably.

Hope that helps,

Rh 7.1 and Compaq SP700 will not reboot

All,
I am trying to install 7.1 on two different Compaq SP700's .
They both install fine but when I try and reboot either of them they I get
1s and 2l beep which indicates memory not present or incompatible.
At this point both system hang with a blank screen.
If I install RH6.2 or Microsoft NT 4.0 they reboot fine.

Does anyone have any ideas on what could be causing this?
I am in the process of downloading kernel-smp-2.4.12.i686.rpm to see if the
latest kernel will resolve this.

my problems as of late have been that both os's like to put their

this again, i'm looking for some general "gotchas" you all might know

Samba Figured out!!! :)

[Jay Paulson]

FYI if you install red hat 7.1 etc and you install 
the firewall upon installing the OS you need to disable ipchains OR let ports 
137-139 have access through your firewall or you won't be able to see your 
shared folders on your samba server! :)

Re: ipchains and iptables

[Mike Burger]

For IPTables:

iptables -A INPUT -s xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy-i ethX -p tcp -m tcp --dport 137 
-j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -s xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy-i ethX -p udp -m udp --dport 137 
-j ACCEPT

Repeat for each port (138 and 139)

ethX is the interface on which you want to accept those packets.

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the ip address or network address that you want to 
allow to use those ports.

yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy is the netmask of the network range.  If you're only 
specifiying individual addresses, you don't need the netmask portion, or 
the "/".

You shouldn't have to do that, if it's a supported card.  Get rid of 
the explicit mappings in /etc/modules.conf, and let the pcmcia drivers 
handle loading of the correct module.  See if that helps.  You may, 
however, have to build your own pcmcia package, if the module you need 
is really new.

Dig around the net for David Hinds' pcmcia stuff, if you need more 
help.

The two distributions have somewhat different layouts as far as some of
the system files, which means that about half the time, RPMs from one
won't work on the other.

SuSE has a fairly well-developed, but proprietary, system admin took
called yast.  The original yast1 is a terminal program, i.e. it has menus,
but is called from a command line and works the same from an xterm as it
does from a console w/ no X.  The newer yast2 has a text mode and a GUI
mode (qt/kde).  Somewhat more asthetically appealing, but currently much
slower.  These tools are at the core of any system administration on a
SuSE system, and the values modified w/ them are stored in a large file,
/etc/rc.config, although a few others are utilized as well for specialized
setting such as firewalls.  RedHat has not real centralized tool on this
scale (think /sbin/setup to a power of 3), and stores the settings
scattered around the /etc/sysconfig directory, among other places.  The
yast1/2 tools also provide an interface to LVM setup and admin.  SuSE
provides a couple of firewall tools, and has been for at least a year
before Red Hat.  There is the personal_firewall, which is basically for a
dialup/cablemodem user offering no services to anyone, and then there is
SuSEFirewall 1 & 2, for ipchains and iptables, respectively.  Also there
are several included security scripts for checking things like the /tmp
directory, etc.  Not essential, but a nice touch.

SuSE comes w/ more software initially; 6 CDs/ 1 DVD, and the yast tools
are w/o peer in the rpm world for managing these vendor supplied packages.
 They fall down when you start adding in other packages from other
sources.  Which brings us to one of the big weak spots of SuSE:  lack of
software on the internet.  What I mean by this, is if you go to about any

There is Kaspersky for Linux, servers or workstations. However, it is
not free, in fact, for the server, it is expensive. They are good
though.

I performed the test to get information on email rejection that I had been

The result of this is, this person does receive any mail that has been sign=

Since I'm going to sign this message, and am about to tell 'mutt' to sign a=

Samba?

[Jay Paulson]

We run an NT domain on a medium size network and 
I'm trying to set up a Linux samba server.  I'm a total newbie at this so 
bear with me. I've got the system up and running Samba 2.2.2 I can see the samba 
server in network neighborhood from my PC however I can't access it (I receive 
the error message "The network path not found").  I have added the Samba 
server to the PDC and joined the network using the smbpasswd it said it has 
joined the network, but now when I run the same command I get an NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED error.  I run 
nmblookup  and it returns to me:
 
querying  on 
192.168.0.255
name_query failed to find name 

 
However, when I run the nmblookup command on a 
machine on the network it finds it just fine. When I run nmblookup -B 
  it returns 
this:
 
querying  on 
0.0.0.0
192.168.0.137 
<00>
 
The ip address is the ip f the samba server.  
I've got the remote access = 192.168.0.255 which is the broadcast.  I'm 
running nmbd as a Deamon on port 137.  I'm running out of ideas and hitting 
road blocks now.
 
Thanks.

The two distributions have somewhat different layouts as far as some of
the system files, which means that about half the time, RPMs from one
won't work on the other.

SuSE has a fairly well-developed, but proprietary, system admin took
called yast.  The original yast1 is a terminal program, i.e. it has menus,
but is called from a command line and works the same from an xterm as it
does from a console w/ no X.  The newer yast2 has a text mode and a GUI
mode (qt/kde).  Somewhat more asthetically appealing, but currently much
slower.  These tools are at the core of any system administration on a
SuSE system, and the values modified w/ them are stored in a large file,
/etc/rc.config, although a few others are utilized as well for specialized
setting such as firewalls.  RedHat has not real centralized tool on this
scale (think /sbin/setup to a power of 3), and stores the settings
scattered around the /etc/sysconfig directory, among other places.  The
yast1/2 tools also provide an interface to LVM setup and admin.  SuSE
provides a couple of firewall tools, and has been for at least a year
before Red Hat.  There is the personal_firewall, which is basically for a
dialup/cablemodem user offering no services to anyone, and then there is
SuSEFirewall 1 & 2, for ipchains and iptables, respectively.  Also there
are several included security scripts for checking things like the /tmp
directory, etc.  Not essential, but a nice touch.

SuSE comes w/ more software initially; 6 CDs/ 1 DVD, and the yast tools
are w/o peer in the rpm world for managing these vendor supplied packages.
 They fall down when you start adding in other packages from other
sources.  Which brings us to one of the big weak spots of SuSE:  lack of
software on the internet.  What I mean by this, is if you go to about any
opensource project, if there are binaries availabe, there will likely be
RPMs among them.  RPMs built w/ a RH system in mind, not a SuSE box. 
Pretty much your only choice at that point is to download the source, and
eithe just compile it and hope it doesn't have problems w/ the rest of
your system, or build an RPM of it and install it.  Otherwise, you are
largely limited to whatever version of package foo comes on the install
media.

though there are ways around it for those of us w/ a home network.  YOU is
only available w/ SuSE, which is not available for free for i386, period. 
But once you have a legit copy, you can install it on any number of
machines, and each one can fully use YOU w/o need for hokey workarounds. 
Six of one, half a dozen of another.

Both companies heavily subsidize the Open Source community in the way of
kernel developers and other programmers.  Red Hat backs the GNOME project
and several kernel developers (Alan Cox, IIRC); SuSE backs KDE and kernel
developers like Andrea Archangeli (sp?), and Hans Reiser of ReiserFS fame.
 Red Hat has a somewhat better 'history' of open-sourcing their

supposedly threaten their business model as yast1/2 are proprietary.  Red

SuSE over all seems a little more polished, and, well, coherent as a total

tape backup whoas..

[Ryan O'Neil]

 Hello all, i am currently looking for an easy way to backup files with my
scsi HP surestore. Is there a way i can treat this device as a hard drive,
or floppy?
If so what commands should i go MAN'n ? I would rather stay away from amanda
and the like and just write scripts to do what i want using commands. Any
help on this is appreciated.. Let me give you the big pic and perhaps you
can give me some insite...

I will be taking the files that need backing up from my ns1 ns2 web and mail
server tar'n them up PGP'n them and sending them off to a backup server
which is just an email server with security to let no one in cept those
servers. This way i can have 1 email per server per day of its important
files and having tons of history behind it as in days. I then want to tape
backup my /var/spool/mail dir every day or whatever.. well the tape part of
something i have never done before.. PLEASE HELP! ;)

Any hints tips tricks idea's etc WELCOME... Thanks...

have a look at TrendMicros InterscanVirusWall [1]. I think that would

Thats the only one known to me so far. If there is something published

Help upgrading wireless pcmcia card on RedHat 7.2

[Tong Young]

So I used to have a SMC EZ Wireless card for my RedHat 7.2 Laptop and it
worked fine.  But I recently got an Orinoco Gold card and realized that
kudzu didn't detect the new hardware and install whateverz for me so now I'm
rather baffled.

So eth1 always times out when trying to come up.  I checked the modules.conf
file and it has "alias eth1 = 3c95x" or something like that, which is my
ethernet card driver.  So I changed that to "alias eth1 = orinoco" which I
had found searching through my harddrive in the wireless directory of
drivers.  But that didn't work.  So now I'm stumped.

I looked at Lucent's site and they say I have to make and build things, but
I was thinking maybe someone knew a faster way since wireless used to be
working.

Thanks!!!

RE: Ext 3 filesystem question

[Brekke, Jeff]

I don't believe there was 2g limit in ext2 or ext3, but it was a arch,
kernel, and glibc issue.  It was my understanding that a combination of
2.4.x kernel and the latest glibc should no longer have this limitation even
on 32 bit systems.  I can't remember where I read about this, maybe some
kernel monitoring sites?  I believe it was a bullet point in features of the
2.4 kernel.  It may in some cases require applications to be relinked, not
sure.

Re: Understanding xinetd

Hmm. . . . .after your restart the network services with the RC script, did 
you see eth0 assigned an IP? Can you ping the IP? What does route -n says?

Of course, it seems that it works only after you reboot the box, so the next 
question is: What kind of NIC card is it? Do you have another NIC card you 
can try?

Re: Understanding xinetd

[Rilindo Foster]

Hmm. . . . .after your restart the network services with the RC script, did 
you see eth0 assigned an IP? Can you ping the IP? What does route -n says?

Of course, it seems that it works only after you reboot the box, so the next 
question is: What kind of NIC card is it? Do you have another NIC card you 
can try?

Re: Ext 3 filesystem question

Well...  other os's are able to get around the limitation (wintendo for

have this limitation.

Printing Problems

[Justin Ellison]

Hi all,

I'm a relative newb to printing in Linux - mainly because the GUI's
have always worked for me.  I have a Lexmark C720 Laser printer at work
here.  I used to print fine, but now I have problems.  It is a
PostScript printer, and has an LPD running on it's ethernet port, so
setup has been easy usually.  Running printconf-gui, and printing a test
postscript page to it results in the correct output.  However, when
printing from Gnumeric and Evolution, I get output, but not anything
near what I expect.  It will draw the outlining borders of the cells,
but not the text inside.  I have also tried printing to a ps file, and
then sending that file to the printer manually by doing a "lpr -P Work
output.ps", and that doesn't come out right either.
Here is my /etc/printcap:

# /etc/printcap
#
# DO NOT EDIT! MANUAL CHANGES WILL BE LOST!
# This file is autogenerated by printconf-backend during lpd init.
#
# Hand edited changes can be put in /etc/printcap.local, and will be
included.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

TIA,

Justin

Proxy server for Redhat 7.2

[Henrik Schmiediche]

 Hello,
I need to restrict the ability of 75 lab system (runing Win2K/IE) to browse
the net freely. I am thinking the way to go about this is to setup a proxy
server on one of our Redhat 7.2 servers that resricts the web URL's the lab
machines can access. Can anyone recommend a proxy server for RH that can be
used to do this? Any other way to do this?

Sincerely,

- Henrik

XMMS squelches gaim

[Alan Mead]

When I was running RH 7.0 I used XMMS and gaim together often.  Now that
I've done a fresh install of enigma, they still work but when XMMS is
playing MP3's (and possibly other files, I don't know), and for about 10
seconds after I pause it, gaim's sounds are supressed.  So I don't hear
anything when someone tries to IM me.

Anyone solve this? The best I can do is switch the audio device for gaim to
the system bell, which isn't configurable (constant volume) but better than
nothing.

XMMS is version 1.2.5 and gaim is 0.50 (i.e., the bundled versions).  I have
done a google search, looked at the two products' websites, and looked
through their preferences. No mention of anything like this.  There do not
seem to be any messages in the system logs.

Re: Understanding xinetd

[dave brett]

Hi Devon

RH7.2 uses dhcpd by default.  I did not change any of the defaults.  When
I was using RH6.2 it was using pump.  I liked pump as well.  When I get a
chance I will probably look into finding what is required to switch to
pump.

I had tried these suggetions and found out I was using dhcpd.  I tried
starting dhcpd, I tried restarting network services and they both failed
to start as well.

It's not an ext2 limitation per se. It's a x86/32 bit limitation. ext2
on 64 bit platforms does not have this limitation. That being said, it
can be gotten around. I believe it requires some adjustments to glibc
(?), and maybe the kernel. Then individual apps may be expecting the
limitation as well.

Re: Problems with Samba 2.2.2

[Jasper Jans]

Simple problem with a simple fix.. you linux machine is not on the domain
yet.

Do the following: on the pdc delete any machine related information about
your linux machine - then readd it - this makes sure the domain is aware
of your sid on the linux machine.
Then you run the smbpasswd -j -r command and it should work.

Then don't use a passphrase.  You gain no security at all by requiring 
a passphrase and then storing it in plain text in a script.  If your

Problems with Samba 2.2.2

[Jay Paulson]

Trying to connect to the Linux from a 2000 box via Network Neighborhood I 
can see the Linux computer. But trying to access any folders I 
defined as shared in the smb.conf file I get an error message: 
 
The network path \\\> could 
not be found. 
 
When I try running smbpasswd -j 
 -r  i get this error:
 
cli_net_auth2: Error 
NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
cli_nt_setup_creds: auth2 challenge 
failed
modify_trust_password: unable to setup the PDC 
credentials to machine  Error was : 
NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED.
2002/01/10 05:28:26 : 
change_trust_account_password: Faliled to change password for domain 

Unable to join domain LBJS.
 
I try running smbpasswd with my accout that i have 
set up on the NT domain and set up in Linux. smbdpasswd -U 
 -r  -j   It 
asks for a password for the user and then i get the error message "Unable to 
join domeain "
 
I've run nmblookup  it 
says the following:
 
querying  on 
192.168.0.255
name_query failed to find name 

 
in my smb.conf file i have this 
config:
 
workgroup =

[home]
    path = /home
    public = yes
    writeable = yes
    printable = no
    browsable = yes
    guest ok = yes
 
I run the testparm and everything checks out 
fine.  I don't have a clue as to why I can't map the linux box from my 
win2k machine so any help would be awesome!
 
Thanks!

Ext 3 filesystem question

[Frank Carreiro]

RedHat 7.2 supports ext3.  I've been playing with it on a small test box 
over the last few weeks.  Does anyone know how large I can make a single 
file with it?

I believe ext2 had a limit of around 2 gigs.

Thx

Performance Gain (Was RE: Athlon)

[Jeff Graves]

On this subject...How much of a performance gain do you actually see by
using those binaries? I've always just used the i386 because they are
the most widely available. Is it worth upgrading to i686 on Pentium
Pro's and i586 on Pentiums? The servers I am speaking of are small,
single function ones like DNS, FTP, Mail, Web. Very light loads. Will I
really notice a performance gain by using the customized binaries?

Well, if you're not planning on changing processors, you can probably go
to the Athlon binaries and be happy.

If you think there's a chance that you might have to change hardware,
you

my experience is you have 1 of two options


1). If you want a pass phrase then you have to start it up manually
2). Enter NO pass phrase when you make the certificate and you can automate the start-up.. ./apachetl startssl


I'm not sure if there is a middle ground?

Some of the Not to my knowledge.  They *may* be 686 compatible, but i686 
processors are actually Pentium Pro, Pentium 2, Pentium III and Pentium

Re: RH 7.2 CD-ROM Mounting problems -- "unkown device" [newbie]

There is a serious bug in redhat 7.2 about the cdroms.
Exspecially if u got 2 of them.
Edit the rc.sysinit and comment out the lines where
the 
cdrom and ide-cd is.Add the third line in that
subroutine where it says "ide-scsi" to the bottom of
rc.sysinit.Reboot after this and u will have your
cdrom as an ide-scsi emulator disk which will work.

Re: RH 7.2 install dies after selecting to install from CD-ROM

[Kjetil Tjensvold]

I had bad luck installing redhat 7.2 from cdrom. After
booting with a floppy disk  it didnt find the cdrom
drive.What I had to do was copying the cddisk to the
win partition on the harddisk and install it from
there.Put both iso enigma cd's in the same folder.

I once hung out on a telnetable BBS that used a DOSEMU hack to run the door 
games - I think it was the one that was linked from userfriendly.org (but I 
don't know if it still exists).

most online systems and BBS's just use an internet connection, there's not
much need for 10 phone lines anymore.  I've written what I think is a
pretty good program for this.  telnet://solarflow.dyndns.org

[Pieter De Wit]

Hello Nick,

We have found that the problem was that clients don't read/doesn't want
messages anymore. With the message that is going out we are gonna invite
them to join a MailMan list and then take it from there...

Nice. 
Wouldn't something like Majordomo be better though?

Importance: High


Hello Everyone,

I have a file with a bunch of e-mail address in. I would like to now invite
these guys to join a mailing list rather than send it out as a batch. We
used to do this under M$ LookOut Express, but I would like to do it from
Linux.

What I was thinking of is the following :

1) Have a file with all the e-mail address each on there own line
(emails.txt)
2) Create the message in another text file. (msg.txt)
3) Issue the following command : cat msg.txt | sendmail 

And that is where my problem comes. How can I make Linux scripting check the
file and run sendmail for each and every user and put the e-mail address in
?

Thanks,

Pieter
