Nope, you guessed wrong, I haven't been living in complete darkness either :) I've had VMware since Jun 21 1999 and gone trough all releases up to 3.0.0 currently with my laptop. I'm quite familiar that vmware has also server products, not just workstation version, I've followed multiple projects like from virtuozzo http://www.sw-soft.com/, virtual private servers http://www.solucorp.qc.ca/miscprj/s_context.hc etc or anything you can think that mainstream Linux sites or slashdot, etc. has published. I happened to jump Linux bandwagon -92 (since first working support of SCSI (AHA1542) appeared around .096-0.97) and been around with many *nix, mini, pc technologies than vast majority even haven't heard of. Built first LAN on -84 an so on ;) Virtual servers, blade servers etc. will have their uses, but until they will make their way in great numbers to production servers I would not hold my breath that they solve all your backup problems. One of the important tricks the server virtualization does not help a single bit is the capability of Mondo and Ignite to rearrange or switch partition sizes, switch over to LVM, convert to sofware RAID, or change to a diferent filesystem. Remember that the bare metal backupsystems (Ignite, Mondo) do not just copy back filesystem or partition, they are rebuild and configure filesystems and most important configuration files too. Mondo has also support for taking binary copy of a unsupported filesystem or possibly even raw partition (didn't test it, but hey why shouldn't it work if it uses same tricks with NTFS). Let me tell you a true story. If you have several servers thousands of kilometers away, accross the country, and either you have someone even pc-user at the site you can instruct him/her to insert with bootable recovery media and ask rebooting that darn server. Just make you give proper details of the rack and bay and read identification label not to accidentally reboot wrong host, oh well... seen that too :/ You can come back even if you don't have complete lights-out management with service processors etc. I've done that couple of times once I worked for one of the worlds largest telecoms systems vendors (Lucent) and the Ignite was our saviour few times you had two options fly or drive as hell driven 1200km, to recover the system or just pick up the phone and ask basically any installer, datacom or datanetwork technician to give you a hand with few simple operations any reasonble human being can accomplish without special training.

Re: [OT] Subnets and Classes
On Thursday 21 February 2002 12:23 am, Edward Dekkers wrote: Any documentation that states this is a class B network is wrong. It is a class C. Here is the breakdown... Class Netmask Network Addresses A 255.0.0.0 0.0.0.0- 127.255.255.255 B 255.255.0.0 128.0.0.0 - 191.255.255.255 C 255.255.255.0 192.0.0.0 - 223.255.255.255 These are the defaults. This explains a lot. After reading this, I stepped back to my original reference below which I saved years ago from the internet: --- Section 3: Private Address Space The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has reserved the following three blocks of the IP address space for private networks: 10.0.0.0- 10.255.255.255 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 We will refer to the first block as 24-bit block, the second as 20-bit block, and the third as 16-bit block. Note that the first block is nothing but a single class A network number, while the second block is a set of 16 continuous class B network numbers, and the third block is a set of 255 continuous class C network numbers. --- I actually misread it. When it specifies here 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255, AND that it is a 16 bit block, I thought it was a class B as I seemed to have 255 * 255 combinations of addresses. But it specifically says on the last sentence it is actually by default a Class C. A bit confusing as I though a 16 bit block meant B Class. My only excuse is I tried to read and understand it while I was still a newbie years ago, and it 'stuck' in my head. HOWEVER. Do Linux Servers/Win Clients actually KNOW this, or should the netmask of 255.255.0.0 override this as the other kind repondents have said? OR is the only way around it to add the route line to the Linux server (yes, the Linux server acts as gateway to the Win clients)? The Class system is purely a convention, and is honoured by some config/installation software. E.g. when installing IP on a RH system it will give you the default netmask based on the IP address. However, the IP stack has absolutely no idea of this convention and works purely on the IP ADDR/NETMASK settings, as I decribed in my previous post. As I said, we use the 10. Class 'A' private rage as a number of Class 'B' ranges to help with routing and reduce the WAN broadcast traffic. One question I did think of after sending my last post is, are they on the same wire or is there some form of router between them. Both being on the same hub would constitute being on the same wire, but if there's a switch in between, then it depends on the switch as to what happens, but it *should* still work. If there's a router involved too then this will almost certainly be your problem. I guess next time I'll just try it both ways. Thanks to all repondents for your time.

I need the client to set the time for delivery, and send the message to
the server which will send the message on chosen date to a mailing list.
Hope someone can put me on the right track.
That feature is not supported by SMTP, which means that no standard mail
server can do it. The simplest solution is to use something like 'at' to
send the message at the desired time. I looked at winfiles.com and found
SMTPSend:
http://download.cnet.com/downloads/0-3356720-100-5181220.html?tag=st.dl.10001-103-2.lst-7-3.5181220
It's a shareware Windows utility that can send email on command. If the
Windows system you're using has a system scheduler, you can set it to use
SMTPSend to send the message at the desired time.
Alternatively, you could have a procmail recipe feed the message to a Perl
script:
:0
* ^X-SendTime:
* ^From:.*specialuser@domain
* ^To:.*mailinglist@domain
| /usr/local/bin/perlscript.pl
The Perl script would have to parse out the X-SendTime header, put the rest
of the message into a file, then use the 'at' command to schedule the
message release.

RE: rcp, nfs or ftp?
Essentially, I'm trying to figure out which way would be best as a standard... I do have some older production machines that I'm not sure will run a current version of ssh... (Not sure on that one, I'll have to check) Often I'll have to bring up nodes that are some what identical to other nodes and one of the processes is to backup certain files using an automated process to push the files to a backup server. (This is where my question comes into play) I want something that can be easy to bring up a node without too much human error and doesn't bring down the server... One thing I did find out and maybe someone can give me some insight to this one. Once when trying rcp and having lots of nodes go to one server to push their files, after a few minutes inetd reported that too many connections where encountered and it shutdown for about 5 minutes due to a denial of service attack. This is an issue that I want to make sure I don't run into. I think that I might have ran into this one with ftp also... Does scp have this limitation since it's not under inetd? With nfs I constantly see errors in the messages file about nfs server not responding and then immediately it says it found the nfs server. To me this sounds like broadcast traffic... Right now, we have many scripts that utilize all four methods if you include scp. I'm just trying to get things more in sync and try to use one method that would be best. Thanks for all the input!

Re: Transfert, linux to win, by floppy
On Thu, 21 Feb 2002, Gene Sais wrote: you can always use samba or just ftp the files. There are several ways to accomplish the task of transferring data from Linux to MS Windoze. Some are quicker to implement, but may involve more effort in the long term, while others are more effort to setup, but involve much less work to use. It depends on how frequently you will need to transfer this data as to whether it's worth the extra effort. Samba is a package that lets you share files/folders from your Linux computer to your MS/Windoze computers through Network Neighborhood (now My Network Places). Long term, this might be easier, since you wouldn't have to first transfer the data to the Windows machines to use it; the data file would appear to be in a folder on a hard drive on the Windows machine. Printers can be shared, too. The Linux box can also get access to files on the MS Windows machines through network neighborhood with the smb client. Long term, this might be worth the effort to learn to do. Configuring smb is not too difficult in many situations, but can get quite complicated. If you have a few PC's and a Linux box on the same LAN and you don't care about user accounts and file access controls, it is very simple. (Look at the example of a guest account in the /etc/samba/smb.conf file.) If you want separate user names and passwords, then it can get slightly more complicated to set up. File transfers over the network can take place by running ftp service (wu_ftpd package) on the Linux box, running an ftp client (e.g. WS_FTP or c:\windows\ftp.exe) to get the file from the Linux box. Another alternative (more secure) is to use ssh/scp to copy files on the network. This means running sshd (openssh) on Linux and getting an ssh client program (e.g. putty) for your Doze box. There is a slight amount of configuration to do after installing wu_ftpd or openssh to enable your PC's to get the files in addition to getting a Doze client program. However, you asked (below) about the quickest way to do the file transfers: via floppy. You need to have a package installed on Linux called mtools. Then, you can use the mcopy command to write the data file to/from MS-DOS formatted floppy.

Re: Re[2]: RH 7.2 CDROM issue, Dell OptiPlex GX1
Brian - I think you are correct. I suspect its a bad burn. I am using nero burner. I burned the CD using boot cd, also tried compiling new CD option. What files are needed to install RH 7.2? On the CD's now: CD1: .iso boot.img CD2: .iso Do I need to expand the iso files or can RH install using them? I checked the RH how to install link and it doesn't mention details about dealing w/ ISO files. I never used them before. The only CDs that work are 7.1 CDs that I purchased.

Re: Any ETA on Redhat 8?
I'd think that it would be more appropriate to call the next release 7.3, instead of 8.0, because there is no major change in the kernel or other components. Red Hat should save the 8.0 release for like the 2.6 kernel or something; there's nothing wrong with versions 7.3, 7.4, or even 7.9, until then. Linux vendors are getting a little crazy with their version schemes; what, are they all trying to see who can get to the famed X (10) release first? ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

NFS and NDMP are the fastest ways to backup just be sure to set the read and write size on your nfs mounts to 8192 as the default 1024 is just a bottle neck for performance.

(This is where my question comes into play) I want something that can be easy to bring up a node without too much human error and doesn't bring down the server... One thing I did find out and maybe someone can give me some insight to this one. Once when trying rcp and having lots of nodes go to one server to push their files, after a few minutes inetd reported that too many connections where encountered and it shutdown for about 5 minutes due to a denial of service attack. This is an issue that I want to make sure I don't run into. I think that I might have ran into this one with ftp also... Does scp have this limitation since it's not under inetd?

Re: RH 7.2 CDROM issue, Dell OptiPlex GX1
It sounds like you took a boot.img file and a rh 7.2 iso file and burned those files onto a CD so that if you looked at the files on the CD you would see boot.img rh7.2.iso This is the wrong way to use an iso file. The iso file is the actual image you want to use to burn the CD with. If you use XCDRoast to burn the CD you would just go to the write cd button, tell it you want to use the iso file and then burn the cd. You wouldn't use the boot.img file at all. Hope this helps.

I burned the CD using boot cd, also tried compiling new CD GS option. What files are needed to install RH 7.2? GS On the CD's now: GS CD1: .iso boot.img GS CD2: .iso This is wrong.

No. An ISO file is a single file representing the contents of a CD. All (that I know of) CD burning software is capable of creating a working CD from an ISO. Some have their own Image format as well. I don't use Nero so I can not tell you the exact thing to look for. What you need is something that says Create CD from Image or Create CD using ISO or something along those lines. This will expand the contents of the ISO properly onto the CD.

RE: Can someone teach me how to set the IP-Table on RedHat 7.2 ?
iptables it the firewall of choice on kernel 2.4. There is a very nice well documented script to run iptables it is called gShield. Get it from here http://muse.linuxmafia.org/gshield.html. Make sure that ipchains is turned off and that iptables is turned on chkconfig --level 345 ipchains off chkconfig --level 345 iptables on. Then reboot you can do the rmmod insmod if you like but rebooting works fine if you are not sure how. The main configuration file for gShield is /etc/firewall/gShield.conf. Start gShield by running /etc/firewall/gShield.rc be sure to add this to a boot script so it starts automatically /etc/rc.d/rc.local will do. Out of the tarball gShield will give you a nice tight firewall configuration. Just check that your internet and internal NICs are properly identified in the config file and that your private IP network is configured in /etc/firewall/conf/NATS. gShield has some settings for DMZ, DMZ is generally a third NIC in your firewall that handles machines that need to be visible on the net but that you want to keep away from your internal network.

Out of curiosity is there a way to compile without specifying -lm? Just wondering why -lm is required for standard math functions. Because libm contains the standard math functions. A bit more explanation--although this isn't specifically RedHat, or even Linux, so it should be on a software development list...so the following is necessarily simplified. But it should dispell some misconceptions I think I see. A program consists of code that is compiled from source into machine executable instructions. If you had to rebuild all source every time you tried to build the program, the development process would be exceedingly time-consuming and tedious; and usually, changes are only to a small portion of the code at any given time. Therefore, it's desirable to do this in stages. Thus, it's possible to compile portions--usually segregated in separate source files--of the program into an intermediate form called an object file. A program called the 'linker' then can combine these intermediate object files into a functioning executable file. When components of the program are separated in this manner, header files provide information about the other portions of the program--such as valid function names, values for arguments, etc.--that need to be used to reference these in the source of any given element. The intermediate object files contain these _external_ references in a form recognizable to the 'linker', which can then reconcile them all when it constructs the final executable. Much code is common--for instance, math functions--and doesn't change between different programs that use it. Thus, common functions are compiled into intermediate object form, and the resulting files are grouped together in an object library for convenience. The linker knows how to select just the objects it needs from the library. That's about as simplified as I can make it, but I hope it helps. -- Dave Ihnat [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Theoretical question disk space question
Ok. This is one that has had me wondering for a while now: Lets say I have a server that exports /home via NFS. And I have clients that mount /home via NFS from that server. When I go thru the initial setup, and create a user, though, the '/home' that is used is not (yet) the one on the server, rather it is under '/' on the clients main hard drive. If I log in to the client as an ordinary user immediately after setup, I see ~/ as it is, freshly created on the client, w/ the various basic files like .bashrc, etc. rather than the files that are on the server ~/ for the same user. Correct? Now for the question part. Now, I log out as the user, and log in as root, and mount the servers /home directory as /home on the client. So now when I log in as a user on either machine, I have a persistent view of my home directory irregardless of which box I'm on. *SO WHAT HAPPENED TO THE FILES THAT WERE THERE BEFORE?* The ones that were created when the user account was set up, before /home was mounted via NFS. If I unmount /home, they appear to still be there, untouched. How long will they stay this way? If /home is mounted, how else would you get to these files, if you needed to clear out the disk space, for instance? Just a question thats been bugging me for a while.

Red Hat should save the 8.0 release for like the 2.6 kernel TLY or something; there's nothing wrong with versions 7.3, 7.4, or even 7.9, TLY until then. Red Hat's major version numbers have historically been based on binary compatibility. So as soon as they're comfortable with GCC 3.0 I would suspect that they will release an 8.0 Have fun, -- _ Brian Ashe CTO [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dee-Web Software Services, LLC. http://www.dee-web.com/ - ___ 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

I mount atlantis:/home on littleblue:/mnt/home, and then put a symlink to /mnt/home/dtalk at ~/atlantis on littleblue. I can then get to my data via that link, without obscuring the local files and configurations on the client.

RE: Upgrading openssh with dependencies:
