 Hi,

 Example, I do
 ls /etc/fd0/myFile 

I don't know about 7.2 (don't have it), but 7.1 definitely has
automount/autofs--I've just never used it. :)

See the manpages for automount and autofs for more details.  Looks
pretty simple to setup.  The reason I wouldn't use it is that I would
always be triggerring the floppy/cdrom drive when there wasn't a disk
in it.  For example, a find command could set it off.  Then you would
have to sit there and wait for it to figure out that there's not
really anything in the drive.

You want an ACL and the http_access directive.
There is doco inline in the squid.conf file in the comments.

Example. This:

acl blockIP src 10.2.2.149

is an ACL matching a client machine (the machine running the browser) with IP
address 10.2.2.149. Then to block that machine you say:

http_access deny blockIP

i.e. apply a deny to access when the blockIP ACL matches.

For your need you're define an ACL to match URLs for .exe etc
and then deny that with:

http_access deny name-of-.exe-URL-ACL

 Don't understand what you can do with a find (not fine ?)

Let's say I'm trying to find a specific file that I'm pretty sure is
somewhere on the disk (something I do more than you might think).  I
do something like

$ find / -iname filename 2/dev/null

If I had autofs setup, when the find command accessed the directory
which is setup as a mount point for autofs to use, it would cause
autofs to attempt to mount the device.  Chances are there wouldn't be
a medium in the drive, and I would have to wait for it to figure that
out.  Plus, my floppy drive is currently broken. :)  One could add
-path and -prune args to find in this case, but it gets a little
messy.  I'd also have to exclude those dirs from my backup scripts
(not hard to do), and tell tripwire to ignore them.  There are
probably some other things I haven't thought of, too.

None of those problems are all that big a deal, it's just that I
_very_ rarely use my floppy drive, and don't use the cdrom often
except for backups.  So it's just a matter of what you think is best
for your situation.  I just thought I'd expound on what I meant about
the find command. :)

Right.  And since you make reference to copy and paste,
we're all sure you're familiar with how to use them.  Going out
on a limb here, but I bet you're also able to operate a text editor
of some kind too.  Put the two together and your problem is solved.

want to make sure i understand tmpfs filesystem

2002-02-15 Thread rpjday


  as i read it (and i'm hoping to be corrected if i'm wrong),
the tmpfs filesystem is just a more convenient version of a
ram disk, with the following properties:

1) i can create one at any time just by doing a mount:

  # mount tmpfs mount-point -t tmpfs

2) a tmpfs sits directly on top of the VM subsystem, and uses 
   space from RAM and/or swap as it sees fit

3) a tmpfs will grow automatically to accommodate added files, and
   shrink automatically as files are removed

4) (obviously) tmpfs filesystems do not persist across reboots

5) red hat 7.2 comes with a tmpfs already registered in /etc/fstab:

  none  /dev/shm  tmpfs defaults 0 0

  but i can always create more if i want.

  given all these properties, it seems that tmpfs is a more
convenient alternative to mucking around with ram disks and the
/dev/ram devices, is that right?

When I try to run 'ethereal ' from a terminal it doesn't load. I didn't

Is there anywhere I can look to see why it doesn't load? verbose mode or

Is it possible all the supporting software isn't installed? (I thought it

 2 questions:

 1) What windows machine are you using?  Is it Windows 95, 98, Me, 2000,
 XP?  If it's Windows 95 then you need to turn encrypted passwords off in
 your smb.conf.

 2) When it asks for a username and password you need to enter a valid
 username and password for the RH system, not for the windows system.

The only known problems with mysql/gcc 2.96RH was in the days just

were problems in the MySQL source (buggy assembler).

Anyone know if there is a CVS like system that would be more geared

Now when I do :

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -j SNAT --to-source $PUBLIC_IP

With all --policy ACCEPT, I can access anything from behind the firewall, 
but when I run my script with just a simple outgoing ping (echo-request, 
echo reply)all --policy DROP and the above SNAT rule, I could not access 
anything from behind my firewall. I could not even ping from my firewall 
box, my LAN and PUBLIC_IP, response is ping:sendto not allowed...

Any help would be appreciated...

We have 5 racks of 50 nodes all plugged into 
extreme switches. The nodes have onboard NIC's using the EEPRO100 driver (the 
NIC's are i82557/i82558)
We are using kernel 2.4.13 (and must since it is 
the only kernel our clustering software supports, we are using 
MOSIX)

The switches are configured properly and allow all 
protocols and multicast. Here are some of the errors we are getting when moving 
large amounts of data: (by large I mean many small fileseach about 50K, we 
are using the cluster to do image analysis)

Re: Oracle to PostgreSQL migration [was MySQL Binary RPM]

2002-02-15 Thread Brian Ashe

Saul,

On Friday 15 February 2002 12:37, you said something about:
 Can you recommend a website/book with hints/tips on migrating from
 Oracle to PostgreSQL?

That depends on what type of help you need to migrate. Tables and most SQL 
should be rather strait forward. If you are looking for help on stored 
procedures migration there is an excellent starting point int the PostgreSQL 
Programmers guide.

http://www7.us.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.1/programmer/plpgsql-porting.html

 It seems to me that there is not as much documentation on the web for
 PostgreSQL as for MySQL.

That is because PostgreSQL is more standards compliant and therefore most 
general SQL information also applies to it. The Primary PostgreSQL docs from 
their website will usually provide enough information on the differences.

MySQL is sometimes called ThierSQL because of it's nearly complete lack of 
SQL compliance and the myriad extensions and proprietary functions it 
includes. This does not make it a bad tool, it simply means that there NEEDS 
to be more documentation because you can't just sit down with a SQL book and 
be able to jump right in. You need to read how MySQL does things.

Creating bootable install cd from ftp mirror

Hi,

I have a local copy of Redhat's ftp site for 7.2.  I want to create 
the install CD's myself, but this RPMS directory contains ALL of the 
rpms - it's not broken down by disk (of course).  My question is how 
do I know which packages go on which disk?  How do I set this up?  
I've read a couple of howtos, but the only one relevant was from 6.x, 
when you really only needed one CD to do an install.  It doesn't 
address creating multiple installation CDs.  It would be a HUGE help 
if someone could update the Redhat-CD HOWTO at linuxdoc (I think 
that's the one).

2002-02-15 Thread Brian K. Jones

There is no iso for redhat 7.2 itanium.  Also, I'd like to include 
updates and custom-packaged rpms instead of the sometimes-cheesy and 
outdated stock packages.

 Subject: Creating bootable install cd from ftp mirror


 Hi,

 I have a local copy of Redhat's ftp site for 7.2.  I want to create
 the install CD's myself, but this RPMS directory contains ALL of
 the rpms - it's not broken down by disk (of course).  My question
 is how do I know which packages go on which disk?  How do I set
 this up? I've read a couple of howtos, but the only one relevant
 was from 6.x, when you really only needed one CD to do an install. 
 It doesn't address creating multiple installation CDs.  It would be
 a HUGE help if someone could update the Redhat-CD HOWTO at linuxdoc
 (I think that's the one).

 Thanks for any help.

-
Your friend in the vncserver is the error file (host:port.err) and the
log file (host:port.log).  These will tell you what the problem is at
startup.  They are both within your ~/.vnc directory.  What is the command
your using to start it?  Mine looks something like:

vncserver :12 -geometry 800x600

this would create the following files in ~/.vnc

meserver:12.err
meserver:12.log
meserver:12.pid

The err and log file will tell you what's going on with the start.  Using ps
ax vnc will show Xvnc as the process name if it has started.

Modifying ~/.vnc/xstartup with exec startkde is not going to change your
current xsession.  In fact it might be messing up your vnc start.  Your
xstartup file should look like this:

#!/bin/sh
xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title $VNCDESKTOP Desktop 
gnome-session 

If yours doesn't look like this then that may be the problem.  Fix it and
try to start vncserver again.

If your wanting to change which X desktop environment you want to use that
is done elsewhere.  I like Ximian so I have not gone down the path of
removal.

I have to start it individually, by user. I never figured out how to do it from the

#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/vncserver -kill :3  /dev/null 21
/usr/bin/vncserver :3 -geometry 1024x768 -depth 24

The -kill option is used in case I logout and back in. I run it in my startup script 
for Xwindows, though there are a lot of other places that it could be done.

Always works for me.

Well, not exactly as easily as your looking for, but you can...

Build the rpms with the --clean flag, which will remove the build tree 
after completion. 
'rpm -bb -clean foo.spec'

You could also specify the --rmsource and --rmspec flags:
'rpm -bb --clean --rmsource --rmspec foo.spec' which will build the 
package, and remove the build tree, source and specfile all in one 
command.

The --rmsource and --rmspec flags can be used after the build process as 
well, so you could build with:
'rpm -bb -clean foo.spec'
Then, after completion, you could run:
'rpm --rmsource --rmspec foo.spec'

Hope that helps,

RPM upgrade philosophy

2002-02-15 Thread Duane Clark

Howdy,

I am a little curious about the philosophy of doing upgrades with RPM. 
  For example, I just did the New initscripts packages... upgrade. 
Since I had slight modifications to a couple of files (for example, mods 
to /etc/init.d/network, because my DSL pppd connection needed to be 
shutdown before the eth0 connection) I was curious what the RPM 
installation method would do.

So following the instructions, I did:
# rpm -Fvh *.rpm

This ran and indicated that it completed 100%. No mention of what 
happened with the conflicting files, or even that there were conflicting 
files. Looking at the /etc/init.d directory, the conflicting files were 
not replaced. And there do not appear to be any other indications. No 
email was sent to root, no apparent messages in /var/log, nothing in /tmp.

This seems somewhat odd to me. I guess I would expect that using the 
default instructions would provide some indication if, well, the 
installation did not in fact complete. And maybe even some indication of 
what to do about the conflicting files. Like maybe stick the new 
versions in /tmp and print a message indicating the conflict?

Anyway, just curious what others normally do for this kind of a 
situation. I poked around in various pieces of documentation, and have 
not yet come across anything addressing this.

 Did you try using the RPM? 


(no subject)

2002-02-15 Thread Clifford Thurber

Hello,
I posted this below a couple of days ago and go no response I wondering if 
anyone could give me some feedback:

I recently recompiled my RedHat guiness release using the 2.2.20 source. I 
am using a 3Com Ethernet card. I get the boot time message that  eth0 
ethernet initialization delayed of course when the machine comes up an 
ifconfig only shows the lo interface. When I do a cat /proc/pci I see it 
has found my ethernet card and reports it as a 3Com 3c905. No if i attempt 
to do a insmod for etho which is aliased to 3c90x in /etc/modules.conf I 
will get an error message about invalid device paramerters, however if I 
load the the 3c59x module the kernel will gladly install this module for me 
and I can ifconfig the interface and get routing working etc. Now if I 
alias this module in /etc/modules.conf and reboot I will still get an error 
message at boot delaying ethernet initialization. However once the system 
is up I can once again insmod the module and configure the interface. I 
have tried running depomod -av prior to the reboot but to no avail? I 
know that kerneld is deprecated now so of course that is not running. I am 
confused as to why I can load this module manualy but it won't load at 
boot. Also there is a discrepancy between what /proc/pci sees as my NIC and 
the module that actually works? Can someone help me out here? I also have 
tried playing around with PnP in kernel builds and in the BIOS itself but 
still no go. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Lastly I tried 
building a monolithic kernel too with the appropriate driver and that gets 
nowwhere either.
Thanks
Clifford

RH 7.2 + cdrdao + Yamaha CRW3200E?

2002-02-15 Thread Romain Kang

Has anyone had experience (or even success) with the current 2.4.x
kernels, ide-scsi burners, and cdrdao writing faster than 16x?

True SCSI CD burners are becoming rare, except for older, slower
models.  So in a new Red Hat 7.2 machine, I tried hooking up a
Yamaha CRW3200E (24x10x40, EIDE) and connecting via the ide-scsi
module.

cdrdao succeeds, albeit very slowly.  I suspect that if there
weren't underrun protection in the burner, I'd have a bunch of
coasters.  Indeed, simulation runs fail anything I try writing
faster than 12x.  I've tried building a 2.4.17 kernel with the
same results (see below).

  I'm having some problems with VNC. I have a full install of RH 7.2, so
  it installed VNCServer. VNC Server says it starts ok, but I can't
  connect and a grep for vncserver doesn't show it running. Is there a
  howto or doc that explains the new VNC Manager and how it's
  configured?

You won't find the PID grepping for vncserver cuz the executable is Xvnc :-))
What you want to do for RH 7.2 is go to /etc/sysconfig/vncservers and read the 
comments at the head of the file. Easy to set up. Just remember that they are looking 
for a *user* name, not a hostname in the display:user pair.

RH used to have a problem where the rc.sysinit wouldn't nuke the vnc /tmp/.X11-unix/X1 
on logout so you would end up with a steadily incrementing vnc /tmp file on subsequent 
logins. Not sure if the recently released initscripts update cleaned this one up. 
Something to watch for.

VNC problems

2002-02-15 Thread Art Ross

I've been working with VNC for awhile and haven't really encountered any
difficulty this today.  I have the full suite of vnc installed on two
RedHat 7.1 boxes.   Let me refer to these two boxes as Einstein and
Newton.  Einstein can start and access a user account on Newton just
fine but Newton has problems with running a remote session hosted by
Einstein.  The vncviewer starts ok and the desktop background is
displayed just fine.  The F8 menu is accessible and works just fine.
The problem I have is none of the icons or panel at the bottom appear.
In fact, when I right click the mouse on Newton, I cannot even get a
menu to appear.  This happens for GNOME or KDE being started by the
'xstartup' script in the user's home directory on the host machine.

I thought this might have been happening because of different Xserver
settings, so I changed Einstein to 800x600 and 8 bit color.  Still the
same problem for Newton.

I tried a remote GUI session with vnc from other guest systems.  The
same thing occurs.  Hosted sessions on Einstein don't work but hosted
sessions on Newton do.

Any ideas?

Best Regards,
  Art

swap files

2002-02-15 Thread Hidong Kim

Hi,

I have a machine with an 800 MB swap partition.  To run a particular
application, I need 1,000 MB swap.  It appears that I can't create a
swap file bigger than 4,880 kB.  Is this correct?  How would I get more
swap space without having to re-partition?  Thanks,



Hidong
