Re: How to capture install screen?
Hi, ;) I asked about How to capture install screen. to RedHat Documantation Team. And then I recived a replay. I'll attach that;) --8k--8k--8k On Mon, 19 Mar 2001, Dongwon Kim wrote: Hi Kim, Don't apologize for your English, it is just fine and I understand what you are trying to explain. Unfortunately, we in docs only write the documentation, we don't solve problems with Anaconda. If I could, please believe that I would share with you all that I know. However, I have a suggestion for you that might help. If you have two systems that are networked, you can use one as an installation box and the other to take the screenshots. These instructions may be a little rough, but hopefully it will get you the information you need. These are the instructions I use for making screenshots. I install via NFS so it may be a little different for you. Box 1 -- The pre-installed linux system that is your workstation that will take the screenshots. Make sure that xhost + is entered so that the second system can send information to is. Box 2 -- the test box that will run the installation program. Using the latest copy of Red Hat Linux, boot the installation program. At the boot: prompt type text display=IP:0 (without the quotation marks) -- Where the IP is the IP address of box 1. Next, enter the installation information as needed. After you enter the server name and directory containing Red Hat Linux, press the F2 help key. At the prompt type anaconda -m nfs://mnt/source (without the quotation marks). In a minute or two, the installation program should put the display on box 1, allowing you to take screenshots.

allowing connections from a specific host on a specific port with ipchains ?
How do you add an ipchains rule to accept connections from a given host (eg. www.xxx.yyy.zzz) on a specific port (eg. ) ? I tried the following (www.xxx.yyy.zzz replacing the real IP to protect the humiliated) : # /sbin/ipchains -I input -p tcp -s www.xxx.yyy.zzz -j ACCEPT But still the remote host (www.xxx.yyy.zzz) could not connect on port . Here are my rather simple ipchains : # /sbin/ipchains -L Chain input (policy ACCEPT): target prot opt source destination ports ACCEPT tcp -- www.xxx.yyy.zzz anywhere - any ACCEPT tcp -y anywhere anywhere any - ssh ACCEPT tcp -y anywhere anywhere any - http ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere n/a ACCEPT udp -- ns1.secure.net anywhere domain - any REJECT tcp -y anywhere anywhere any - any REJECT udp -- anywhere anywhere any - any Chain forward (policy ACCEPT): Chain output (policy ACCEPT): What am I missing here ? Not sure if it's necessary but I also tried restarting ipchains : [root@womble sysconfig]# /sbin/service ipchains restart Flushing all current rules and user defined chains: [ OK ] Clearing all current rules and user defined chains: [ OK ] Applying ipchains firewall rules: [ OK ] But still no luck. Thank you for any help. chas ps. how do you specify where to insert a rule ? at the moment, I'm just using /sbin/ipchains -I input and it inserts the rule in the first position.

You may eliminate this if you like to allow connections from any port on his machine. 2. You specify the after *your* IP address, not after his. And you are specific about your IP address (not just --destination-port so that your firewall doesn't even allow packets destined for other servers. 3. You need an output rule as well. Otherwise his connection request will get through but nothing will get back out. 4. In the output rule, specifying ! -y means but NOT any SYN packets. SYN packets are those used to request connections. So the inbound rule will allow any traffic (including connection requests) and the outbound rule will allow any traffic that does not initiate a new connection. So he can connect to you but not you to him. (And he cannot get another program on your machine to connect to his box either, which is more relevant.) -- Rodolfo J.

2 of /etc/passwd is x. So, anyone know of any other ways that I can

this? Thanks for the help though.
I did this by installing the poppassd daemon and then writing a PHP

to
call poppassd with the username, old password and new password and
poppassd
did all the work for me :)
I guess you could write something similar in Perl. If you want the PHP

After executing this script i was curious as to why when i tried to login
as joe his password did not work. First thoughts were it was the weird
chars in his password that were throwing chpasswd off, perhaps thinking
it was being told to do something, specialy if a password would contain a
or something. After pulling out a few hairs i bumped into the problem.
chpasswd is only allowing the first 8 chars. If i try to log in joe with
a password of joe'spas it works fine.
SO, the question is. Is this a major bug or what? I am using MD5 and
assumed i could use all 32 of the bytes allowed, however using that
script with chpasswd i can not.
Someone told me about the newusers command and i will be looking into it.
If someone can send me a example file that adds a new user with
username,password and what shell to give them only i would greatly
appreciate! Also, does anyone know if newusers has the same problem
chpasswd has?

Subject: Re: Validating passwords via perl, Lil help please!
Hi Jake,
That is basically what I have now to see if the user exists, but I
can't
use
this because I'm using shadow passwords, the only thing that is in
position
2 of /etc/passwd is x. So, anyone know of any other ways that I
can
achieve
this? Thanks for the help though.
I did this by installing the poppassd daemon and then writing a PHP
class
to
call poppassd with the username, old password and new password and
poppassd
did all the work for me :)
I guess you could write something similar in Perl. If you want the

My Machine can't receive mail
Hello, It seems that my machine cannot receive mail from outside. I am in LAN network, and my machine has its name from DHCP, which stays the same.

Re: My Machine can't receive mail
I would venture to guess your having the same problem i had. In RHL 7.2 Redhat made it so sendmail will not get mail from anyone but itself. This was done as i understand for some security reason, not sure. You need to edit the file: /etc/sendmail.cf In that file you will see a line like this O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA sendmail only listen on that ip. To allow other to send you email change that ip to your ip, or do what i did O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=0.0.0.0, Name=MTA Now it will listen on all IP's on that machine, so if you change your ip it will still work, this is probably what you want to do since you said your DHCP and maybe your IP changes from time to time. After you make these changes restart sendmail and you should be fine. Hope that helps. Jim.

RE: updates not over the web
I have a simliar problem, in which none of my redhat boxes (14 and growing) are not on the internet. So currently I download them one by one to my NT box and then write a CD and distribute them onto the the Red Hat machines. Since these machines are not on the Internet, they are not in the RHN database and therefor no update messages (like I get at home), though I get messages through bugtraq. The updates I cringed at are XFree86, Gnome, and KDE, the number and sizes of these packages makes a long download even at T1 speeds. Hopefully the management will notice this and allow me to attach a RH box to the T1 and then I can up2date with the option to save the rpms to a seperate directory. Its a task in itself to keep up with the patches, which up2date works very well only if you are attached to the internet. Maybe a periodic iso image of patches would help? Just don't know, so I also open to suggestions. smbinyon -Original Message- From: daniel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2002 10:48 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: updates not over the web just an odd question here just recently i updated my 7.2 box with all the new rpm's redhat released on their server but then it occured to me: what if i was in brazil with a dialup or something? downloading 1 or 2 hundred megs is a bit of a strain on my only phone line what do people do in this case? ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
Re: Upgrade GCC
I then upgraded to 3.1 (which caused nothing but nightmares there on in). Not only did MPlayer not compile, but other programs that did compile correctly, caused unknown seg faults, and other various disturbances. But I chalked that up to beta releases. Yes. It's not binary compatible with the old one either, so it will break. Binary compatible? care to elaborate? I don't understand what you're trying to say here. So as a last resort, I downgraded to 2.95. I haven't had a problem since. It's not binary compatible with gcc296 (or other versions) wrt. C++. It also has worse performance, more bugs and poorer C++ conformance (and of course, doesn't run at at all on IA64) I guess that's why ver 2.95 2.96. I'd have to question the whole revision numbering system if 2.96 didn't have some form of improvement or fix over 2.95. I think my whole beef is that 2.96 is a RedHat standard, not a Linux standard. ie:, gcc-296 is only offered in rpm format (feel free to correct me here if I'm wrong). So distros like Debian, or Slackware that don't use the rpm packaging system, are unable to use these software packages, unless they adopt, or shall I say, integrate the rpm packaging system. -- -Rob ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

What is the path? echo $PATH will show you the current path that the shell looks through for exectables. I believe RHL no longer puts the current directory in the path by default. you either: add . to your path in ~/.bash_profile (don't forget the : separator) put it in a place that the shell will look like ~/bin or to save key strokes if neither of these options are what you want you can simply type ./progname. The ./ is the current working directory. putting . in your path is considered by most to be a security issue since you might inadvertantly run a program named the same as a common command or a simple typo can cause a different program to run. Definitely not a good idea for root's account. BTW ~/ is the current user's home dir in bash anyway not sure bout other shells.

Help with name issues DNS and Cox.net
Hi, I have been struggling with the changeover from Cox@home to Cox.net in the past week and I have hit a cross-roads. I need assistance with troubleshooting some DNS issues that I'm having. I'm running RH 7.1 with IPmasquerading and IPCHAINS. My problems are as follows: 1) Cox now requires DHCP, so I shifted eth0 to DHCP and it picks up the address just fine and the DNS servers. But they also issue dynamic hostnames with every lease. So in their literature they say that you can use anything for hostname. But if I do, then I can't resolve my hostname when I bootup...I fixed this by changing the hosts file to resolve my current hostname to my current address. But what happens when the address changesI'm hosed again. 2) My internal clients cannot access the support.cox.net site at all. I think that this has something to do with the fact that they are masq'd and they have different domain suffixes? maybe... 3) internal clients can't access Mail. I think for the same reason listed above. They can ping the server, but are denied access, even when I put the fixed IP of the mail server into the box. 4)DNS confuses the hell out of me and I can't get my mind around the problem. any help would be appreciated. thanks Carl He who has not first laid his foundations, may with great ability, lay them afterwards, but they will be laid with trouble to the architect and a danger to the building. - Machiavelli ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

RE: updates not over the web
Good point, if the boxes where on the internet I would be more concern on the hacking part but then again if they were on the internet, then up2date would be used. Downloading patches from the net should always be available. In my case, the systems are not on the internet (and probably never will be) and therefore getting updates are obtained via other methods - downloading the patches one by one - and then transfered via CD to the systems, much in the same line that krud is doing, so krud may have a good deal for us gaint corporate users :). Another solution would to replace my NT junk with RH and then I can have up2date put the patches in a seperate directory that can then be distributed to the non-internet systems via CD. smbinyon -Original Message- From: Rodolfo J.

Re: Validating passwords via php, Lil help please! (Was with PERL)
Actually, take back that last email, newpass does seem to be working, just
don't know what it's doing, as the computer is just sitting there after I
put in newpass, I opened a new connection to the machine, and noticed that a
instance of passwd is running, along with poppassd. Interesting. So it must
be trying to change the password, right? Anyone know how to help out?
Thanks,

Hi Jake,
That is basically what I have now to see if the user exists, but I
can't
use
this because I'm using shadow passwords, the only thing that is in
position
2 of /etc/passwd is x. So, anyone know of any other ways that I

I did this by installing the poppassd daemon and then writing a PHP
class
to
call poppassd with the username, old password and new password and
poppassd
did all the work for me :)
I guess you could write something similar in Perl. If you want the
PHP

COFF binaries execution
Hi! I have Red Hat Linux 7.2 and I'm trying to execute SCO Unix COFF binaries (RM Cobol for OpenServer). I'd try with RH 7.0, with the kernel-ibcs-2.2.16-22.i386.rpm package, I'd probe loading the module iBCS, executed the program and everything worked fine. No problem. Now, on RH 7.2 I load all the abi modules (abi-sco, abi-uw7, abi-cxenix, abi-svr4, abi-machdep, abi-ibcs, etc.), I try to execute the same COFF binary that runs on RH 7.0, and it send the next error: bash:runcobol: cannot execute binary file Is it a patch or any package that let me run this binaries? Where can I find it? Any idea, comment or advise is welcome. Thanks... Regards Mike. ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Changing hostname causes lpd problem

An lpstat -t command gives a "Get_local_host: hostname: 'linux1' bad" error message. Have I missed another file to change?

What kernel RPM packages to install from Rawhide?
Hello. I am going to rebuild and install the binary RPM packages of the Linux kernel from Rawhide in my RedHat Linux 7.2 box. I am not sure what packages can be safely installed while trying to keep the system well integrated. In particular, it seems that the glibc and the kernel-headers packages are tied together, that is, I should not install the Rawhide kernel-headers. Currently I have the following kernel packages installed: kernel-2.4.7-10 (i686) kernel-2.4.9-21 (i686) kernel-headers-2.4.9-21 kernel-source-2.4.9-21 I want to keep them and also install the new ones kernel-2.4.17-0.12 (i686) kernel-source-2.4.17-0.12 Will the new kernel-headers be needed for something, like compiling third party kernel modules (like avfs and alsa) for the new kernel, or can I just disregard it?

Re: Newbie - Need help!
I am not familiar with 2 nic on the same computer. However, I have installed a linksys on this system. At first it was not recognized by the system. It is using the tulip driver. This is how I did it 1) /sbin/insmod tulip 2) /sbin/ifup eth0 (for me this card was on eth0 could be eth1 ) 3) /etc/rc.d/initd/kudzu restart ( this is probing the hardware ) Provided that kudzu now detects your network cards you can configure your networkk connections 4) start the network configuration utility -- when the card was detected this was done almost automatically 5) edit /etc/modules.conf to contain the line alias eth0 tulip Of course, I am assuming that your connetions are working! For this only required to perform step 1 and 2. The other steps were required to automate the connection profile. Hope this helps Cheers. Dominic.

sendmail: getting mail from both isp's mail server my mail server
Hi folks, I have a working mail server (sendmail 8.11-6) that gets all mail for neidorff-dot-com. Now I'd also like to get mail from my isp. I tried setting up a user and running fetchmail from that user via cron. The user is 'mailserv' and the script looks like this: #!/bin/sh su mailserv -c fetchmail -s This runs, goes out to the isp and brings the mail in, BUT, procmail hangs and all mail after the mail from the isp stays in the queue until I kill one procmail process for each email received from the isp. (Does this make sense?) The process I have to kill looks like this: procmail -Y -a -d mailserv There is another procmail process: procmail -Y -a -d mark that delivers the mail once the first one is killed. Is there a change in sendmail I have to make, or somewhere else? Or is ther other informaiton that I need to provide to get help with this problem?

Second Circuit Ruling on source code
Folks, I'm listening to a legal presentation on publishing from the Waterside writer's conference, and Jon Tandler of Isaacson, Rosenbaum, Woods Levy, P.C. says there was a recent ruling by the Second Circuit Appeals court (I think it covers New York state and maybe CT) - that sounds like it goes beyond the GPL. Essentially, he's saying that Second Circuit ruling protects source code as free speech, as opposed to something that can be copyrighted. Tandler went on to say that the rulings of other US circuit courts are in conflict with this ruling. Can anyone here point me to the current case law for these rulings, as how they affect the GPL? What have other circuits said about source code, free speech, and copyright law? If this isn't the right forum, can you point me in the right direction?

Hello, I recently upgraded to RH 7.2. I notice some disk activity hitting the root disk every couple seconds. I don't know what it is, and am having a tough time figuring it out... I got rid of most of the cron entries, and stopped several services from running, and left a fairly slimmed down system, and I still can't seem to figure out what is hitting the disk. Looking at /var/log/cron, the only thing left running every 10 minutes is /usr/lib/sa/sa1, and that activity does not co-incide with the activity I am hearing on the disk. Another file in /var/log that is often being updated is /var/log/pacct. Which I have figured out is the process accounting data file. I took a look at iostat, but that only showed me that there was activity on the disk, not what it was. I would like to know what's going on. fuser shows what's going on, but doesn't seem specific enough. Any suggestions on a tool to see what application is hitting the disk? - Or any suggestions on places to look. -Thanks, RYAN Ryan Hamilton Madison Chief Consultant escf.com w. http://ryo.escf.com/resume.html e.

kernel RPM upgrades change permissions on /boot/grub/grub.conf
Hi all. Been using Red Hat (7.2) for about a week or two now (was a Debian user for a couple years). I've been installing the Errata RPMs and I've noticed that when I install the kernel packages, they hose the permissions I've set on grub.conf. I set them non-world-readable because the file contains the hash of the bootloader password. Is there any way I can prevent the RPMs from changing this?

If you use KDE, the KDE System guard is probably the best for this purpose. When you open it up, go to the list of Processes. Go to the check box that says Tree down at the bottom.

Re: Help with name issues DNS and Cox.net

I need assistance with troubleshooting some DNS issues that I'm having. I'm running RH 7.1 with IPmasquerading and IPCHAINS. My problems are as follows: 1) Cox now requires DHCP, so I shifted eth0 to DHCP and it picks up the address just fine and the DNS servers. But they also issue dynamic hostnames with every lease. So in their literature they say that you can use anything for hostname. But if I do, then I can't resolve my hostname when I bootup...I fixed this by changing the hosts file to resolve my current hostname to my current address. But what happens when the address changesI'm hosed again. You can fudge a random hostname as an alias to 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts and by setting the random hostname in /etc/sycconfig/network. This will keep your machine mostly happy but is an ugly hack. 2) My internal clients cannot access the support.cox.net site at all. I think that this has something to do with the fact that they are masq'd and they have different domain suffixes? maybe... I doubt it. Look elsewhere. Try tcpdumping on the gateway box while your clients are trying to hit support.cox.net and see what happens. Also take a good hard look at your network setup. Besides, if cox was able to detect NATed connections, they could do far worse things than block access to their support site. 3) internal clients can't access Mail. I think for the same reason listed above. They can ping the server, but are denied access, even when I put the fixed IP of the mail server into the box. Again, look at your network/firewall setup. 4)DNS confuses the hell out of me and I can't get my mind around the problem. Heh.

RE: cfdisk
I too was unable to locate the cfdisk command in Red Hat7.2. I was wanting to use it a couple of days ago. I have a dual boot system with WindowME installed on one hard drive (hda1/vfat) and Linux installed on the other (hdb1/ext3). I was wanting to reduce the size of the vfat partition and use the extra free space to install an ext3 partition there. I was hoping that I could do this using cfdisk. Any suggestions? ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

I don't know if you can, but this mail list post: http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-sql/1998-09/msg00069.php suggests the following examples: SELECT * FROM series WHERE upper(NAME) = 'INDIA' or SELECT * FROM series WHERE NAME ~* '^india$' The first is probably the most portable. It selects rows where the uppercase value of the NAME column is 'INDIA'. It should work on any SQL server that provides an upper function. The second example matches a case-insensitive regex. I've never seen this syntax before, and assume that it's PostgreSQL-specific. :) signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
