RH7.2: Cannot install GRUB or LILO to MBR, or anywhere else

[Lorenzo Sandini]

Linux install on a simple machine should be easier that Windoze, but
apparently not on my computer. I remember Mandrake 7 was smooth as butta',
but Mandrake 8.1 won't simply install and now Red Hat behaves in the same
way...

I have a Highpoint 370 RAID controller, but I disabled it in the BIOS, so it
is not even
seen. My computer runs a PIII 1 GB CPU, with 512 MB RAM.

IDE1 master : IBM 60 GXP 40GB (new, unparitioned)
IDE1 slave : HP9300 CD-RW burner
IDE2 master: Creative DVD drive
IDE2 slave : none

IDE3& 4 on HPT370 disabled.

Graphics : ASUS V7700 AGP (probed correctly)
Monitor : Sony Multiscan 420GS (probed correctly)
Sound : Soundblaster Live
Network : NIC1 in DHCP for cable modem connection, NIC2 static for LAN.

I boot from the CD (DVD drive or HP9300 burner), choose a very simple
workstation KDE environment, autoformat on an
empty drive, (50MB ext3 for /boot; 2000MB ext3 fixed for /; and 1024MB for
swap; the remaining 36000 are free space.

I choose GRUB, to be installed on the MBR, but LILO has the same problem:

Up to now install exited ~randomly telling me "abnormal install
termination - receiving signal 11", but since I skip X configuration, the
install process goes 99.5% normal until install completes, and I am prompted
to create a boot floppy. Although there
is a formatted empty floppy in the drive, I get a message "boot floppy could
not be created", and all I can do is "skip the floppy creation", after what
I am prompted to reboot. However, nothing appears in the MBR either since
"operating system is not found" as I reboot. (boot sequence CDROM / HDD-0 /
Floppy)

Alternatively, the installation crashed exactly as I try to create the boot
floppy, and I was able to capture the anacdump.txt to the floppy I had
prepared for making my boot disk...

Traceback (innermost last):
File "/usr/lib/anaconda/iutil.py", line 61, in execWithRedirect
raise RuntimeError, command + " can not be run"
RuntimeError: /sbin/grub-install can not be run

I noticed a few tings in the "anacdump.txt" log (I will skip the normal
events, 99.5%). Apparently GRUB wasn't installed... along with some other
(critical ?) packages.

Do I have a bad CD ??? Any other idea ? I cleared the MBR a few times with a
win98 boot floppy (fdisk /mbr), and tried to install Mandrake8.1, which
writes LILO without problem to the MBR.

Any help very much appreciated !

redireccionar el trafico al puerto 23 del linux es decir habilite el puerto
2300
para que al intentar acceder a este redirija las peticiones al puerto 23 de
la
maquina 192.168.0.2 (el linux) pero siempre manda las peticiones al 23 de
este y
cuando hago telnet a checher.dbbs.d2g.com:2300 (el linux) no me responde ni
va
nada.

Quiero saber como se hace para rutear los puertos pq pondre el servidor HTTP
y
el FTP en linux pero no se como hacerlo porque asi como yo pensaba *NO ME
FUE*.

Tambien quiero saber como configuro el samba para poder compartir archivos y
ver
el pc de liux en w2k y viceversa pero estuve mirando el smb.conf pero no he
podido hacer que ander quiero ayuda en esto.

Tambien quiero saber como debo hacer para poder hacer telnet desde linx a
internet porque tampoco me va siempre devuelve "no route to hsot" y no se
como

Re: Problema!

[Enrique Bory Simon]

first:
for me , it's bad idea put the NIC in auto mode!, just fix the ehternet to
10 or 100 mbs, then try the mode, first with half duplex and after with full
duplex.

second:
try to gain a switch, not a "simple" hub !!!

third:
check utp wiring!, is it tested  Try with a fluke

- in spanish ---
primero:
Para me , es una mala idea poner las targetas de red in modo automatico,
Ponlas a 10 o a  100 Mb, tambien trata con modo  half duplex y luego  full

compra switch, no hub !!

tercero:
chequea el cableado!, esta probado. Con un fluke resuelves

That's interesting.  Oddly enough, SuSE claims to be the most LSB compliant 
distro out there.  So who has the files in weird places now?  I will agree, 
though, that it (SuSE) does give the impression that changes had better be 
made w/ their special tools, or else.  In fact, there is an option to disable 
the SuSEconfig tool, but it specifically states not to come to them for 
support after turning it off and mucking up your system.  6 one way, half a 
dozen another, as far as I'm concerned.

Re: Changing from Red Hat to another distro: recommendations?

[Manuel A. Camacho Q.]

Trond, if I were a RH employee, I would take this chance to understand
not only how the AOL aquisition of RH would affect the customers we
*already* have, but also what is the real competitive advantage of the
company and/or product.

Haven't anyone wondered yet why, if so many ppl in this thread is saying
positive things about other distros, they still use RH? What haven't the
competitors done so far that this ppl are still RHs customers? How close
are the competitors to achieve what the customers expect from a superior
distribution?

I just think it is nice to look at things from a couple of different
perspectives, and take advantage from the available information.

-Manuel


P.D.: I think Linux From Scratch is a good option. So you wont be
depending on any specific distribution.

I think just leave off the second {} so you give it the target dir and the 
target name is infered.  So...

find /mnt/cdrom -type f -exec cp {} /home/BigDog/files/source/ \;

M.

P.S.  I doubt '-name *' is what you want... since it expands to match what
ever files are in the dir where you run the command from... and if there 
were no files in your current workding dir.. * matches everything so is the 
same as giving no -name argument at all.

Overriding original directory structure

[Manuel A. Camacho Q.]

I need to copy files from different directories in a CD-ROM to a single
directory in my hard drive.

So far, I tried with:

find /mnt/cdrom/ -name * -type f -exec cp {}
/home/BigDog/files/source/{} \;

but I get errors as this try to create 

/home/.../source//mnt/cdrom/.../filename

(yes, it tries to preserve the orignal directory structure with a double
/)

I tried the cp and mv commands, but they preserve the directory
structure of the original files (i.e.
/.../source/otherdirectory/filename)

I have thought about using tar and gzip, but as far as I have read, both
commands will keep the original directory structure.

Any idea?

TIA,

-Manuel.

Are you getting the error when running the vmware-config.pl script?  What
version of VMWare are you running?  VMWare Workstation 3.0?  Did you install
on Red Hat Linux 7.2?

Internal or external?  Externals are easy.  You just need to crank up 
the port speed and feed it both phone numbers, if applicable.  Other 
than that, it works just like a modem.  I have scripts that can set 
that up for you if you need them.

If it's an internal card, I can't help you, sorry.

Are you sure you moved _everything_ out of that directory?  It seems to me 
that you may be confusing the concepts of directory, partitions and file
systems although I may be completely misunderstanding you.  If that's the
case, my apologies.

What's the _complete_ output of the 'df -h' command?  I'd say you are simply
moving files from "/" to, say, "/usr", but _both_ are actually mounted on the
root filesystem.  Does it make any sense?  The "mounted on" does not mean
that you have a whole partition mounted on a single directory.  It is mounted
on that directory and subdirectories too, and this includes /usr, /var, /tmp,
etc.  If that's the case, simply moving files from / to /usr would not save
any space at all.

Can you think of any reason as to why nscd is returning the following error?

connect(6, {sun_family=AF_UNIX, sun_path="/var/run/.nscd_socket"}, 110) = -1 
ECONNREFUSED (Connection refused)


Also, are you in a NIS environment by any chance?  I can see several system 
calls that involve a NIS configuration.  Are you running 'nscd'?  Check it 
out with 'ps auxw | grep nscd' for instance.

Their installation is not so easy though, and it also takes a while to get
used to the other Debian-only tools.  I have to acknowledge though that their
apt-get kicks ass.  All in all, it needs some polish and I cannot see most
newbies feeling too comfortable with Debian.

Both articles quote the initial report in the Washington Post as their 
sole source, however.

Oddly enough, CNN reported something along these lines earlier.

On December 31, 2001. :)

It wasn't a merger the author predicted, but still...

In their top 10 linux predictions for 2002, available at 
http://www.cnn.com/2001/TECH/industry/12/31/linux.predictions.idg/

I quote:
- --
8. You have (secure) mail

AOL will stun the world by releasing a beta AOL client for Linux. (AOL 
Time Warner is the parent company of CNN.com.) This event will be marked 
by both howls of protest and celebration. Command-line interface (CLI) 
diehards will proclaim it to be the death of Linux. Most will simply

- - End quote.

My own (tongue in cheek) prediction:

Personally, I think the merger talks are a diversion. They are really 
working out a marketing deal that puts an AOL icon on the default 
desktop.  Purchase of the Red Hat Linux (version X.P.) boxed set will 
include 2000 free hours of AOL service. Every time you insert one of the 
install CD's, you'll be asked if you are sure you don't want to subscribe

Well, merely one hour after I sent this message to the queue CNet News
published the following:

http://news.com.com/2100-1001-819578.html


Like I said, this makes more sense to me.  Basically, the whole thing boils
down to:

o "Sources familiar with the situation emphatically insisted the two 
  companies are not near an acquisition deal, nor have they discussed one."

o "Still, even if the two companies are not considering a merger, AOL 
  Time Warner could license Red Hat for use on PCs or other devices for use 
  with its online service."


Something like this would still be great news for Red Hat (especially since
they have been pushing their toolkit for embedded devices lately) and would
still keep the company's independence as we all like it.  On the other hand,
when it comes to AOL it seems to me that they have already seen the writing
in the wall, just like Netscape did several years ago.  If Microsoft's 
monopoly in the desktop market is left untouched (and the latest news we
got from the DOJ vs. Microsoft case seem to point in that direction), they'd
better figure out a way to steal market share from Windows XP et alii or
Microsoft will also end up imposing its own MSN and related applications in
that market.  

Summing up, it seems to me that we are not witnessing an acquisition but
rather a "strategical partnership".

The installation did not detect them, but they were detected by kudzu and configured 
on the reboot.
They are set with pnp enabled.
They are started at boot. (eth0 fails because it is set to use DHCP, and is not hooked 
to anything yet)

lsmod reports ne loaded, I assume this is the correct module.
Module  SizeUsedby
autofs  11008   1  (autoclean)
ne  70081  (autoclean)
839063040  (autoclean) [ne]
ipchains36128   0  (unused)

isapnp detects the cards, according to dmesg:
...
isapnp: Scanning for PnP cards...
isapnp: Card 'Ethernet PnP ISA Card /S'
isapnp: Card 'Ethernet PnP ISA Card /S'
isapnp: 2 Plug & Play cards detected total
...
ne then detects them:
...
eth0: NE2000 found at 0x240, using IRQ 5.
...
eth1: NE2000 found at 0x260, using IRQ 10.
 this is followed by a long string of Tx timeouts, eg:
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth1: transmit timed out
eth0: Tx timed out, lost interrupt? TSR=0x43, ISR=0x3, t=1110.

I'm sure that is because it's not connected to anything.

cat /proc/interrupts says:

...
5:  0   XT-PIC  NE2000
...
10: 1   XT-PIC  NE2000
...

(There are no conflicts)

cat /proc/ioports says:

...
0213-0213 : isapnp read
0240-025f : eth0
0260-027f : eth1
02f8-02ff : serial(auto)
...

The IP address for eth1 is set to 192.168.1.254 (for now)

ping -c 10 -I eth1 192.168.1.127 

(my laptop) returns :

PING 192.168.1.127 (192.168.1.127) from 192.168.1.254 eth1: 56(84) bytes of data.

>From 192.168.1.254: Destination Host unreachable.
...

Ping from the laptop to 192.168.1.254 reports "Host is down"


The PWR/Tx indicator on the card shows power on and flashes on the outgoing pings.
The LNK/rx indicator on the card shows connected and flashes on the outgoing pings.
The LNK/rx indicator on the card flashes on the incoming pings.
The two machines are connected with a functional crossover cable.
The laptop/cable combination works with another machine.
All indications show a functional setup, but it doesn't work.

Why?

We're still quite happy running RH 6.2 at work on a half-dozen systems, and
I suspect so are many, many other users.  I don't know what the official
release support termination date is though.  I would guess that Red Hat will
not stop supporting the 2.2.x-based releases until well after the 2.4 kernel
has really, really stabilized, and I don't think it's there for everybody
yet.

Not really.  The biggest problem I've found is that if a new kernel comes
out, you'll have to rebuild the VMware modules.  Not a big problem for minor
release as long as you've got the development tools on your system.  If you
like to be on the bleeding of kernels, then VMware is probably not for you.
VMware did take a while to support RH 7.2 - typically the beta release are
not supported but the production releases usually are.

Another problem I found was with the device sharing.  You can't share the
same device between operating systems so you might have to do some juggling
if you have some USB devices that you want supported on Linux and not on
VMware or if you want to ensure that other plug-and-play devices are only
accessible from one OS.  Also, I don't believe that MIDI devices are
supported (they weren't in 2.0 and I can't remember if they are in 3.0).   I
primarily bought VMware to run some Windows applications that just aren't
there in Linux yet and it was working fine for that.

I no longer have the system I originally bought VMware for and I don't need
it for my server, so I'm willing to sell my copy of VMware 3.0.  Contact me
via e-mail if you're interested.

This is silly, folks.  I will agree that the tone of some posts to
this thread has been quite rude, and that much of the bleating was of
the unenlightened, kneejerk variety.  But I hardly think, since
community volunteers carry much of the weight of the support duties
here, that it's any less rude to suggest that we should not speak our
minds freely, or that the original question was inappropriate.

Quality speaks for itself.  For as long as Red Hat maintains its
standards, the community isn't going anywhere, and I'll continue to
buy my copy every 6 months.  I don't see anything wrong with
periodically questioning our vendor decisions, and I think it's
equally valuable for Red Hat to witness the discussions, even if
they're occasionally rude and uncalled for.  You can sometimes learn
as much from your thoughtful detractors as from your fans.

That is my humble opinion.

  Why is an AOL ownership of RH scary?  They are spending the
market cap (1.6B$) not to kill Red Hat -- AOL is trying to
spend to avoid being killed (bled to death; having its air
supply cut off) by MS.

They (AOL) are trying to buy RH to roll what they consider a
mature OS onto desktops, selling a service -- Consider the 
marketing pitch:

For your AOL $25 a month, you NOW get a free selection of
polished word processor, spreadsheet, Photoshop, local games
(FreeCell), network games (a la EverQuest) ...  which inter op
with and look just like the MS or Adobe product.  Along with
Web and email and universal IRC/Chat Rooms.  They are already
used to pipe-lineing updates during a session, and so it
self-maintains as part of the bundle, for 'free'.  And it 
never crashes.

0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0

-- IF Charlotte were wiped off the Earth tomorrow, I'd start
selling Owl River Linux two weeks later, and with 90 % of the
RH featureset (including an automated backend development
operation support) off the bat.  I'd offer to hire (or a piece
of the action in a partnership, a la the accountancy firms)
the best and the brightest Red Hat'ians left -- They're not
hard to find -- they each sign their commits in Changelogs
every day (unlike other vendors); In working with them, I
find they are a unusually _nice_ group of people.

I mirror and archive all sources, and have for years -- and I
am not alone.  RH is a good GPL citizen (probably the best of
the commercial packagers), and the GPL builds on itself
forever.

Of course you can, but you'll have to put one of them on a
non-standard port.  Or put them both on non-standard ports, and then
link to them from an index page at port 80 so your customers don't

Another distro? No!

[John P Verel]

I note that exactly 3 years ago today I bought my boxed Red Hat 5.2
set at J&R Computer World in lower Manhattan.  (I note that I've
since survived 6 upgrades ;)

I note that about 2.5 years  I read Bob Young's essay in. "Open
Sources" (O'Reilly, 1999).

I note that 17 months ago I bought (and still own) Red Hat stock.

Notice a pattern?  I'm a believer in Red Hat.  I have no interest in
another distro.  Nor in AOL.

Go Red Hat...and fellow listers!

Where should I see input while running xev?  All I see is a small window 
with a big box in its upper left corner.

OT: digging up an old chestnut

[Julian Opificius]

Forgive the bandwidth, but I was cleaning out my attach directory (OK, I 
admit it, I use Eudora on Win98 for mail, for now), and I found this from 
back in '99, so I thought I'd share it. Hope it's worth the bytes, and 
apologies to all who have seen it already.

"Linux lacks the Blue Screen of Death (TM) (R)"

In a surprise announcement today, Microsoft President Steve Ballmer 
revealed that the Redmond-based company will allow computer resellers and 
end-users to customize the appearance of the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD), 
the screen that displays when the Windows operating system crashes.

The move comes as the result of numerous focus groups and customer surveys 
done by Microsoft. Thousands of Microsoft customers were asked, "What do 
you spend the most time doing on your computer?"

A surprising number of respondents said, "Staring at a Blue Screen of 
Death." At 54 percent, it was the top answer, beating the second place 
answer "Downloading XXXScans" by an easy 12 points.

"We immediately recognized this as a great opportunity for ourselves, our 
channel partners, and especially our customers," explained the excited 
Ballmer to a room full of reporters.

Immense video displays were used to show images of the new customizable 
BSOD screen side-by-side with the older static version. Users can select 
from a collection of "BSOD Themes," allowing them to instead have a Mauve 
Screen of Death or even a Paisley Screen of Death. Graphics and multimedia 
content can now be incorporated into the screen, making the BSOD the 
perfect conduit for delivering product information and entertainment to 
Windows users.

The BSOD is by far the most recognized feature of the Windows operating 
system, and as a result, Microsoft has historically insisted on total 
control over its look and feel. This recent departure from that policy 
reflects Microsoft's recognition of the Windows desktop itself as the 
"ultimate information portal." By default, the new BSOD will be configured 
to show a random selection of Microsoft product information whenever the 
system crashes. Microsoft channel partners can negotiate with Microsoft for 
the right to customize the BSOD on systems they ship. Major computer 
resellers such as Compaq, Gateway, and Dell are already lining up for 
premier placement on the new and improved BSOD.

Ballmer concluded by getting a dig in against the Open Source community. 
"This just goes to show that Microsoft continues to innovate at a much 
faster pace than open source. I have yet to see any evidence that Linux 
even has a BSOD, let alone a customizable one."

Re: laptop extra keys

[Ben Logan]

I have a Logitech keyboard with similar keys.  I got them to work
(under X) by using the following method:

Run 'xev' to get the keycode.

Use 'xmodmap' to map the code to a keysym known to X.  Once I got the
commands right, I put them in my .xinitrc file.  Here's what it looks
like for me:

xmodmap -e "keycode 236 = XF86Calculator"
xmodmap -e "keycode 178 = XF86HomePage"

You can get a list of valid keysyms from

/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB

Hope this helps,

Have you tried deleting the last entry on the first line in /etc/hosts

Re: Changing from Red Hat to another distro: recommendations? - freebsd

[Frank Carreiro]

Not the installation of software but the installation of FreeBSD itself. 
 It's very easy for a newbie to screw it up (the installation).  After 
using redhat these last few years I admit I'm spoiled :-)

Installation of the FreeBSD packages is rather easy.  pkg_add feels 
almost like Solaris's implementation.

BTW, their website has some great documentation available for anyone 
interested.

www.freebsd.org

As I understand it they also have better SMP support than any Linux 
distro today (Is this true?).

Re: AOL in Negotiations to Buy Red Hat

[Statux]

Well, it is interesting that a closed source commercial company would be 
buying a company like RedHat. Something not right about that picture.

As far as AOL benefitting from the 600 employees, there's always layoffs 
with aquisitions. These aren't the best times for people to be keeping 
their jobs in such situations. Stocks are stuggling, economy is a lil 
rocky right now. Now, in order for AOL to get anywhere from this deal, 
they'd have to keep most everyone from RedHat since AOL doesn't know jack 
crap about what they're getting into.

On the bright side of things, AOL brings with it... funds. Funding is much 
needed at this point in time. AOL's stock would probably increase in 
value, but they're gonna have to realize that they can't step on too many 
feet in the process. They aren't bringing the development experience to 
the table... RedHat is. Television advertising could also be a big 
possibility since I don't remember ever seeing a RedHat commercial on TV.

So, I think such a deal would be financially positive.. again, if AOL vows 
to let RH continue as they have been.

Sorry if any of this info has already been mentioned. I've been trying to 
keep up with this thread :)

Ok, there are two possibilities:
- you have two subscriptions to the list
- something at your end is duplicating the email

Just to attack the 2nd in the background: do you have an mail filters
set up? And do you have more than one email address.

On the premise it's the first case:
- unsubscribe
- go to the list subscription page and request your password

If you really have two subscriptions then it should send you a password
and you can probably unsubscribe again to get the second one. If you
have more than one email address, ask for the password for each.

Otherwise, contact the list administrator directly and ask.

Re: Changing from Red Hat to another distro: recommendations? - freebsd

[adrian kok]

Hi Frank

I don't think it is difficult to install software in
freebsd

In fact, it depends on you are familiar this product
or not.

Before I found RH rpm also is difficult because of
many dependiences!!!

Re: checking ports [FIXED]

[Hidong Kim]

Thank you!

Using this command, I saw that vmware-smbd was running on port 139. 
After I rebooted the Samba server, I started VMware to turn on my
virtual Windows 2000 machine.  It must've grabbed this port before I
started Samba.  Now I have Samba running again.  Thanks,



Hidong

I don't know why, but I get multiple copies sometimes, too. It doesn't
happen with everybody, and it's happened too many times for me to
believe that so many individuals are messing it all up.

Re: rpm bug on 7.2?

[Statux]

Ok.. solution is: Think before you do :)

Why would you be hitting ctrl+c during an RPM install anyway? You were the 
one who opted to have it installed in the first place. If you break it 
half way through, you can possibly corrupt the RPM database, among other 
things. You might want to try something like "rpm --rebuilddb" to undo 
some damage you may have done.

Re: Changing from Red Hat to another distro: recommendations?

[Frank Carreiro]

If not SUSE then Slackware isn't bad.  I've messed with it awhile back 
and my experience was positive.

Also FreeBSD isn't bad.  I'm currently working with a FreeBSD system 
(version 4.4) and so far it's been stable and runs what I want just fine.

The ONLY thing I HATED about FreeBSD was the installer.  I've butchered 
it (the install) my first couple of tries.  On my third attempt I simply 
let it decide how to setup the kernel / hardware.  Worked fine at that 
point :-)

I just hope AOL doesn't screw up RedHat should they decide to acquire 
them.  RedHat IMHO is one of the better packages out there. 
 Installation is very easy and use of the product overall is easy for 
the newbie to the hard core user/developer.

/me nudges AOL... you hearing any of this guys?

Re: can't start samba

[Ezra Nugroho]

Did you just change your kernel?
Do an 'ifconfig'. Check if  'lo' interface is up.

I have a hunch that maybe your kernel doesn't support local loopback 
connection.

Try removing the multicastclient line in your ntp.conf file for your time

Re: Changing from Red Hat to another distro: recommendations?

I for one appreciate the loyalty to your employer that you show by your
comments Trond.  It does not seem the norm nowadays.  It is exactly the
employees like you that are (and should be) proud of building a product
and even an apparently working business model that would make RH a
viable target for acqusition.

I do not however agree with your comments.  Why would it be pertainent
for a debian list for instance to be discussing what would you switch to
if you left Red Hat?  Since they are not, by and large, Red Hat Linux
users it would not apply.

I do however as I said can understand your discomfort with such
discussions.

netstat -ln

will show you all ports, numerically, that are listening.

  I would agree. I switched from RH to SuSE after RH 5.1, and then went to 
MDK in November. Just keep in mind that while Mandrake shares RedHat's 
commitment to Free Software, SuSE does not (YaST uses a license similar to 
Microsoft Shared Source). If this isn't important to you either is a good 
choice, if it is, then you probably do not want to switch to SuSE.

RE: checking ports

[Brad Bonkoski]

Title: RE: checking ports





I think they mean:
netstat


run 'netstat -pna | less'
That will give you IP:Port combinations (for BOTH tcp and udp) as well as the program name


man netstat will give you the full array of options.

RE: AOL in Negotiations to Buy Red Hat

... or maybe (and I'd like this idea way better than the one where AOL outright
purchases Red Hat), they are simply negotiating a "strategical agreement" where
AOL can "leverage" Red Hat's expertise to develop set-top boxes for American
homes in order to fight Microsoft's expansion into other fields such as online
access (MSN), online content (MSNBC, among others), gaming (the X-box), etc.
Now, that could something to get excited about... although it's anybody's
guess whether it would work or not.

Re: checking ports

[Mike Burger]

Of course, if the process on that port is running udp instead of tcp, 
telnet won't do anything.

The best bet is to get a port scanner, like nmap, and run that against the 
machine in question.

RE: slashdotted?

[Mike Burger]

Not only the site, but the fact that once a company/site is mentioned in a 
www.slashdot.org article, the company's site tends to get overrun with web 
requests, causing the site to be virtually unreachable.

That is that "being slashdotted" is all about.

Re: checking ports

[nit etc]

Try 'netsat', I think the -p option lets you see the
process that is using the port.

For quick check, you can just "telnet 127.0.0.1 139"
to see if some process is listening on that port.

checking ports

[Hidong Kim]

Hi,

How do I check if something's running on port 139 of my machine?  I want
to see if something's already running on port 139 which is preventing me
from starting Samba.  Thanks,
