 It's a mistake that they're there. Will be corrected shortly.

Why?

Why won't redhat release to the public an additional ISO with free programs 
that are not GPL'd? (free as free beer)

After all - it's just an added value IMHO.

  Red Hat shipped 10 CDs with the Red Hat Linux 7.2 Professional Edition.
  Five of these were open source software, and the rest were mixed open
  source and commercial software.
 
  So what you requested is already there :)
 
 Heh,
 
 I think RH should start distribute a DVD-ROM with all that stuff.. looking 
 for an RPM in 10 CD is not an easy task... 

find /misc/cd -type f | awk '{print 01  $1 }' catalog
eject /misc/cd
find /misc/cd -type f | awk '{print 02  $1 }' catalog
eject /misc/cd
etc

Then grep the catalog. Simple.

[OT] Three Questions about BIND

2002-02-22 Thread Enrico Payne

Hello, I have the following questions regarding bind on a RH6.2 server (BIND
8.2.3)

1) If I have many domains, and I want to split them between 2 servers
running mail and web serving, should I
a) Register the primary domain on the server that is running the
mail and web stuff or,
b) Should I keep 1 server running all the domains as primary, and
the other as slave?

2) What is the expected cpu usage for bind on a server that has +- 30
domains? (Mine currently goes from +-30% to 99%, but averages out at 92%)

3) If the cpu usage (as per question 2) for my bind setup is to high, how do
I correct this?

Regards
Enrico

There's one parameter in the spec file to change so that it will

 I'd think that it would be more appropriate to call the next release 7.3,

As rawhide is using a glibc-2.3-pre developement version and a snapshot of
gcc 3.1 I'd say that there is a major change in the 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.

Thats going to be a while yet.

 2) What is the expected cpu usage for bind on a server that has +- 30

CPU usage? It should be virtually nil.

[seyman@ns1 seyman]$ uptime
  3:03pm  up 84 days,  3:41,  1 user,  load average: 0.05, 0.03, 0.00

The increase in load-average is because I use ssh on my machines
and generating keys and comparing them uses CPU resources.

This is a Pentium 150MHz with 64Mo RAM.
It's DNS for 130 domains.

 3) If the cpu usage (as per question 2) for my bind setup is to high, how do
 I correct this?

I'ld recommend putting DNS on a server that does only that.

IMHO, in terms of real-world computing, it's far more important to be 
stable, reliable, and well-tasked than to be on the edge for the edge's 
sake. but at the same time I can understand the slobbering for the next 
big number. here's hoping that the Slashdot First Post attitude never

the is reminds me that when I fo\irst started palying with linux, and
was never sure if things were mounted properly or not, I do something
like

touch /mnt/floppy  NOT_MOUNTED

so if I did an ls on that dir I'd know immediately that a floppy wasn't
mounted. Of course when it was mounted I'd see the contents od the
floppy (or nothing). This applies to anything else you mount, including
over nfs.

RE: How to (submit jobs to background)

If you are running a GUI app and want to get your shell back all you need to
do is COMMAND  example mozilla  If you are running a backup script
or something that will take hours use cron.  The reason is that if you are
running on a remote machine and get disconnected so does the process you are

printing with truetype fonts on kde

2002-02-22 Thread Carl D. Blake

All right, now I'm really getting annoyed.  I recently installed
Microsofts truetype fonts from the windows98 CD I have on my RedHat 7.1
system for XFree86 4.1.0 (I know, I know - I feel dirty).  I did this
because when I did a recent up2date my XFree86 was upgraded to 4.1.0 and
all the fonts became pretty ugly.  Anyway, the fonts look pretty good on
my system.  Everything with the X display looks great.

The only problem now is that printing isn't working or at least it isn't
working for my browsers. Printing works for pdf files and for most
postscript files and text files.  However, when I use Konqueror or Opera
to print a web page the printer seems to choke on the amount of data
being sent.  I printed to a file and the file seems to have the fonts
embedded.  Apparently the printing system in KDE seems to think that it
needs to embed these new truetype fonts into the postscript files it
sends to the printer.  Embedding the fonts makes the postscript file so
large that the printer seems to choke on it.  The printer I'm using is a
HP LaserJet 6MP.  I'm using KDE 2.1.1.  Does anybody have any
suggestions?  I've tried changing the fonts back to the original fonts
and everything works when I do that.  However, the fonts don't look so
hot on my system.  I'd like to be able to print with the truetype fonts.

simple default route question, RH7.2

2002-02-22 Thread Charles Galpin

I can't figure out where the default route gets set up in 7.2. For
whatever reason I didn't get prompted to setup networking during the
install, so I set it up manually. From the looks of it, ifup uses the
GATEWAY and GATEWAYDEV env variables set in /etc/sysconfig/network to do
this automatically, but it isn't working.

I can manually set the default route, and put that in static-routes or
rc.local, but I *know* this works on other machines without doing that.

Install tripwire to be sure that no files are tampered with that you don't
want changed and you should find all the log files you want to check in
/var/log.  The most likely ones are messages, secure and httpd/error_log.
There are many systems to handle log monitoring logwatch and analog may come
in handy.  You can also secure your system with a firewall or by configuring

can't boot from floppy

Upgrade from 6.0. 2 hard drives. Linux only on 2nd hard drive. Using
Grub. Using floppy created during installation from CD to boot into
Linux as I have always done with 6.0. I get the following error message:

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext 2
filesystem (and not swap or or ufs of something else), then you might
try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock.  e2fsck |
8193device.
I am understanding this to mean that the floppy disk is bad or
installation didn't do it right. If the floppy is bad, how do I create
another one.
If that is not correct then how to I boot my machine. At this time, it
just hangs after the error message.

 another one in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/NIC there is a new very
 complicated gui called neat that handles these files if you don't want
to
 edit the individual files.

while I prefer doing it by hand, I'm not opposed to using a tool.
However this is a gui, and I need a console based solution (firewall).

I think the files you refer to above are a side effect or result of that
tool too, since I don't have them.

Thanks though, and see below for my fix.

 I can't figure out where the default route gets set up in 7.2. For
 whatever reason I didn't get prompted to setup networking during the
 install, so I set it up manually. From the looks of it, ifup uses the
 GATEWAY and GATEWAYDEV env variables set in /etc/sysconfig/network to do
 this automatically, but it isn't working.
 
 I can manually set the default route, and put that in static-routes or
 rc.local, but I *know* this works on other machines without doing that.
 
 anyone?

ooh. me. me. Type your gateway IP in correctly you idiot. Then it works
as expected!

Hi Paul

First, I think you missed the fact that the problem is solved.

Second, I know how to tunnel X through ssh. This pc has no X libs, apps
or anything. An X gui is in no way appropriate for this task. Then I did
say I would *rather* edit the files anyway :)

 The first question to ask is what would you have expected it do?  Your printer,
 by the sounds of it, does not have truetype fonts in it.  So, if you want an
 accurate printout, the font definitions *have* to be sent to the printer.  
 Anything else is an approximation.
 
  I'd like to be able to print with the truetype fonts.
 
 You've got two choices:
 1) get a printer that has built-in truetype fonts
 2) download the font definitions to the printer.
 
 Welcome to the wonderful world of display vs printouts...
 
Except that this printer works just fine as a postscript printer with
Windows 95/98/NT/2K.  I'm not positive about this, but wouldn't the
printer have problems with large files with Windows too?  Since it's not
having problems with Windows it seems to me that the printer must have
truetype fonts.  How does the KDE printing system know whether it needs
to download the font definitions or not?

2002-02-22 Thread Gene Sais

1st of all, thank you to all who responded.  Someone mentioned the linux iso site and 
I found the solution.  It was the CD burner software NERO.  I am using Nero 5.0 and it 
didn't support burning native ISO files.  However, there is a work around.  I followed 
these instructions and it worked:

Hello Gene,

Thursday, February 21, 2002, 1:53:17 PM, you textually orated:

GS Brian - I think you are correct. I suspect its a bad burn. I am using
GS nero burner. 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.

GS Do I need to expand the iso files or can RH install using them?

The CD burner software you use should be able to expand them on it's own.

GS PS. Do I need to use WinImage or WinISO, etc.?

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. You should wind up with the contents (once
burned) looking similar to the RH 7.1 you have (of course not exactly as it
is a different version). It should also be bootable at that point as well.

Have fun,

Well, Windows cheats.  It doesn't actually print TrueType as you requested.
It will do a translation of TrueType fonts to comparable PostScript fonts.
For example, Arial could become Times New Roman.  There was a *long* discussion
on the Mandrake cooker lists a year or two back about KDE printing - a lot of
the CUPS work is done by a Mandrake employee, Till Kamppeter, IIRC.  How
solvable this problem is today I don't know - I haven't visited this issue in

have a significant overhaul of the printing subsystem to solve problems like
what you're having, and to give all the applications true CUPS print 
requestors more in line of what you're used to seeing with Windows.

Ghostscript apparently allows the printing of TrueType fonts, but I don't know
how this is done which specific packages you'll need.

I'd probably start by posting at http://www.linuxprinting.org/newsportal/. 
You'll find Till there along with a bunch of other people who really know how

Nu-B\Linuxconf:Changes which files?

Hello List...

prefer to do the necessary changes to whichever files are involved - without the use 
of linuxconf.

What file(s) would I normally have to modify for external DNS configuration?

A more general Q.: Is there a standard way to know what files are changed by any of

Odd printing problem

2002-02-22 Thread Ian Truelsen

My printer stopped printing about a week ago and I have been trying to 
troubleshoot the problem since, but now I have hit a wall. 

Here are the specifics that I have tried so far: 

 - removed the spool directory
 - removed the printcap files
 - recreated the printer and started lpd
 - removed and recreated lp0 with mknod
 - set ownership of lp0 to root.lp, permissions to 0660
 - tested the printer both built in self test and on another machine (works 
with M$, I am afraid to say)
 - chnged the addressing and IRQ settings in bios to every possible 
combination 

Now, the current symptoms: 

 - at boot, printer is recognised and accessed (beeped) while checking for 
new hardware
 - boot up of lpd states no printers defined (both when printer is and is not 
configured in printtool), when it used to give two paragraphs of information 
about super io chips, etc.
 - when attempting to set up in printtool, the printer (Canon BJC-4300) is 
autodetected along with /dev/lp0
 - when attempting to print a test page error message states that there was 
an error trying to print test page
 - when trying to access via CUPS client machines, they stall on trying to 
contact printer, this did not used to happen 

So, as I say, I am stumped. Can anyone think of anything that I havn't 
tried? Any interesting responses from ouija boards? Consultations with a 
medium? A small? I'll try anything at this point. 

Thanks. 

Ian.

WWW Visitor Blocking

2002-02-22 Thread Ashley M. Kirchner


Is it possible to block access to one's website by checking the IP
address?  For whatever political reason at a company I do consulting for, I've
been asked to deny access to their website to any visitor that doesn't
originate in the US.  Now I realize someone sitting in Australia could use some
proxy in the US to get to someone else's site, but they're not too concerned
about that.  They just want to outright block any IP that's not a US one.  This
only for WWW access.

blocking access to a website by ip address is pretty simple with a javascript in
the webpage.

You can get the code for doing this in various free scripts sites. You can also
block directly in the apache configuration , with an .htaccess file.

You only need to know what ip classes are US classes.

It can't be done.  IP addresses are simply not managed in this manner.  If they

For example, I worked for a US company that was purchased by IBM.  Shortly we had
employees in the US, UK, Japan, and several other countries accessing the web.

I do this for one site I have, I don't want to government of one country
to see the content of this site. It's easy enough for this site as the

/ Is Full?

2002-02-22 Thread cbsled

After a string of errors this afternoon, I decided to reboot. The reboot failed to 
startx. I restarted in linux 1 mode, then a memory of past experience with a full 
/ started creeping back. I rebooted from the 7.1 CD into rescue mode, and ran e2fsck 
on the affected partition (sda9), after freeing up some space by moving files off it, 
and yes, I'm sure I put them on a different partition. The system still won't startx, 
but my big worry now is that df is reporting incorrectly. This is what it says:

1M Blocks   UsedAvailable   Use mounted on
/dev/sda9  3238 30750100%   /

Obviously there is a problem somewhere. I would much rather not nuke it and start 
over. The filesystem on sda9 is readable, but when I move files off it, it doesn't 
report any free space as a result.
Any suggestions?

Re[4]: RH 7.2 CDROM issue, Dell OptiPlex GX1

2002-02-22 Thread Michael Oatman

Gene, that's weird you had to do something 
special to get Nero working.

I installed this RH7.2 system from ISOs dled from 
Gnutella and rh FTP and burned on Nero 5.5.4.0 on 
a WinXP Pro Corporate system using this relatively 
standard method:

Open Nero to Nero Burning Wizard
 check Compile a new CD  Next
 check Other CD formats  Next
 check Create a CD from an image file  Next  
   Finish
Opens to Open dialog box, where you can browse 
   to an *.iso or *.nrg file  Open
Opens to Nero Wizard [Burn CD] window
 check Burn or Test and burn radio button
 uncheck Create image box (checked will simply 
   copy the image file to a virtual CD drive)
 select write speed
 click Burn
Opens to compilation burning window, which burns.

Aside from accidentally dling the second music CD 
from the artist Enigma from Gnutella, everything 
went fine for me (yes, I actually burned it and 
tried to put it in the CD-ROM when it asked for 
CD#2 during the install -- yes, I then went to rh 
FTP site to dl it!! ;)  The installation didn't 
mind waiting tho' oops!).

 GS Brian - I think you are correct. I suspect its a bad burn. I am using
 GS nero burner. 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.
 
 GS Do I need to expand the iso files or can RH install using them?
 
 The CD burner software you use should be able to expand them on it's own.
 
 GS PS. Do I need to use WinImage or WinISO, etc.?
 
 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. You should wind up with the contents (once
 burned) looking similar to the RH 7.1 you have (of course not exactly as it
 is a different version). It should also be bootable at that point as well.
 
 Have fun,

Re: / Is Full?

2002-02-22 Thread Ed Wilts

My common method of filling / is to think that I've got a remote volume
mounted a mount point and it isn't.  For example, I mount my backup volume
on /mnt/backups.  Obviously the directory is there, but if for reason the
volume fails to mount (eg, the server wasn't available when the mount
happened), I'd throw my backups into /mnt/backups anyway and fill the
sucker.

Since you've got a SCSI disk, you more than likely don't have a trivial

If you ever fail to start X, you could run level 3 - that will leave you in

troubleshoot than run level 1.

 After a string of errors this afternoon, I decided to reboot. The reboot
failed to startx. I restarted in linux 1 mode, then a memory of past
experience with a full / started creeping back. I rebooted from the 7.1 CD
into rescue mode, and ran e2fsck on the affected partition (sda9), after
freeing up some space by moving files off it, and yes, I'm sure I put them
on a different partition. The system still won't startx, but my big worry
now is that df is reporting incorrectly. This is what it says:

 1M Blocks   UsedAvailable   Use mounted on
 /dev/sda9  3238 30750100%   /

 Obviously there is a problem somewhere. I would much rather not nuke it
and start over. The filesystem on sda9 is readable, but when I move files
off it, it doesn't report any free space as a result.

Um, the above is correct.  Your drive is 100% full.  Remember that 5% is reserved 
for the super-user.  3238 - 5% = 3076

Start looking at some of the most common hogs:

/tmp
/var/log
/var/tmp
/var/spool
/home (in case someone decided to fill their directory)
/usr/local/apache/logs (or wherever you have it installed)

RE: How to (submit jobs to background)

2002-02-22 Thread Michael Oatman

I was commenting more on that in SCO Unix and DEC 
and others, the way you run in the background is 
with a pipe (|) immediately before the ampersand 
().  In other words, you pipe the command to 
the background (ie: sh% command |  ) in Unix,
like you pipe commands to grep or less.  

Obviously, this is not true in Linux, where one 
must not put the pipe, but merely the  alone 
after the command.

I wonder if there's a compendium anywhere of 
things that Linus changed when making Linux?

I would imagine it would be quite large.

Sounds like the permissions on /lib/libproc.so.2.0.6 have become mangled.
Go:
ls -ld /lib/libproc.so.2.0.6

It should look like this:

-rwxr-xr-x1 root root46224 Aug 28 13:16 /lib/libproc.so.2.0.7

(I have a slightly newer release than you). Basicly, there should be read (r)
and execute (x) permissions for all three permission groups.

First fix that, if that's what's wrong.

Then try to figure out what happened - permissions don't just decay.
Have you perhaps been mucking around near that directory as root?

Also check that everything is ok compared to how the RPM database
thinks it should be. For example, here's what I did for this email:

[~/lnc]amadeus* locate libproc.so
/lib/libproc.so.2.0.7

That told me where the library was.

[~/lnc]amadeus* L `!!`
L `locate libproc.so`
-rwxr-xr-x1 root root46224 Aug 28 13:16 /lib/libproc.so.2.0.7

Checks the permissions.

[~/lnc]amadeus* rpm -qf !$
rpm -qf `locate libproc.so`
procps-2.0.7-11

This tells me that the library comes from the procps RPM package.

[~/lnc]amadeus* rpm --verify procps
[~/lnc]amadeus* 

This checks the procps package against what is actually installed.
As you can see, it made no complaints, so my system is ok in this regard.

You can check your whole system this way:

rpm --verify -a

See man 8 rpm for an explaination of what the output means; it's a big
manual entry, so search for VERIFY OPTIONS. Also, expect some differences.

thanks that solved the problem

permissions were:
-rwx--1 root root46224 Aug 28 13:16

but how did it happen i never entered the /lib dirctory as root

bye the way i am running squirrelmail as webmail and i have observed
that some of my squirrelmail users became owners of some randomly
choosen files in /bin and /usr/bin. i cannot doubt these users and
they do not have shell access.
