Kernel Upgrade From 2.2.16-22smp

[Nick Erickson]

I have attempted to upgrade the kernel twice on my Redhat 7.0 system.  After
using up2date, the new kernel installs properly, but I cannot reboot it
running the new kernel.

Motherboard is an Intel R440LX, AIC-7880 SCSI controller, has three Conner
ST15150W disks.

As the system comes up, after detecting the three drives, an error occurs
and the message repeats endlessly

SCSI host 1 timed out - resetting
SCSI bus is being reset for host 1 channel 0
(SCSI 1:0:0:0) device reset, message buffer in use

Current kernel is 2.2.16-22smp and works great, same error occurs with any
of the later upgrades.

Any help would be sure helpful!!

Huh?  Y'lost me, Hal ...



Hytham, it appears that you don't get that in Red Hat by default:

d1-11:configs 508 $ pwd
/usr/src/linux-2.4.9-31/configs
d1-11:configs 509 $ grep -i ntfs kernel-2.4.9-i686.config 
# CONFIG_NTFS_FS is not set
# CONFIG_NTFS_RW is not set

So if you want to recompile your kernel, you can get read support for
NTFS.  Last I checked, though, NTFS write support was not stable, and
was accompanied by dire warnings.

Cheers -d

FWIW I don't see anything OT here.  I read this thread with interest

Re: Resin with Apache install question

[Michael Oatman]

And to complicate matters, it appears that in RH7.2, apache
gets installed in /etc/httpd, /usr/include/apache, /var/www, 
and /var/log/httpd, the last two being symlinked from
/etc/httpd.

So how would one instruct the configure to set things up
with ServerRoot = /etc/httpd but with /usr/include/apache
for the module header files?

You don't have this rule called "firewall" to delete in the first place.

It's because of the -X firewall, you should include full messages in

Would be interesting to find out why this happens, if i assume you are
still running this script as root just after you ran the first time.

on the first run modprobe has already loaded the modules needed, eg you
can use iptables.
So what is iptables -L show ?

I would suggest to first manually key in your iptable rules, ensure that
it is working and what you want and save it 
(iptables-save >/etc/sysconfig/iptables)
and use the rc.d/init.d scripts

Does the RH installation detects the raid card?
Its quite a hassle to build a custom boot.img
This might help http://linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Bootdisk-HOWTO/index.html

I think the best to help you out is this link, if RH doesn't support

I interpreted that differently.  If what it wants is the top level
directory that contains the bin/, lib/, include/, et al.  for Apache,
that would be /usr, if you're using the rpm install of Apache.  If you
installed apache to /usr/local/apache_1.3.22, for instance, then
/usr/local/apache_1.3.22 would be the value of interest, given my 
interpretation.

But really, the documentation for your package should explain what they 
mean by this, one would think ...

 I'd recommend trying the "xf86cfg" program that comes with XFree86.
It's in a separate package (XFree86-xf86cfg) which you will probably
need to install as it's omitted by default.

 X has been able to do multi-head for over a decade.  The Windows
world has just discovered the idea, and in true commercial fashion
has come up with several implementations (one per vendor).

 Using xf86cfg should allow to choose which way around the screens
fit together (well, you have to tell it which is left and which is
right -- DDC doesn't quite cut it :o)

I'm not sure about vsftp but most ftp servers I've used require that a
user have a valid shell to be allowed to ftp.  The shell's absolute path
must appear in /etc/shells.  You could add /sbin/nologin to /etc/shells
and it should fix your problem.

To keep a user in the home directory, however, you need to run the
session chrooted as someone else has already pointed out.

There does need to be some sort of disconnect between the interface name

RH 7.2 custom kernel/modules in boot.img

[Garrett Mead]

Good day,
 I am interested in installing RH 7.2 on a new system which has a
promise SX6000 IDE RAID controller. Promise only distributes a driver
for RH 7.0/7.1. I have read that I2O support is included in most
modern 2.4.x kernels. As such I am interested in building a kernel
with static support for I2O or module support for the same.

I have seen some documentation on adding a new vmlinux file to the
boot.img along with custom modules, however the process is still not
clear to me.

Is there a HOW-TO somewhere outlining how to take a newly built kernel
and place it and its supported modules on the boot.img file to be used
for a fresh RH 7.2 installation?

One of my main questions has to do with what kernel settings are
required for the installation process? Is the kernel .config that was
used by RH to build the default vmlinux file on the boot.img available
for reference somewhere?

Thank you for your time.

Resin with Apache install question

[Leila Lappin]

Hello all,

I'm not if this is the appropriate list for this
question, if not please kindly direct me to the right
one.  My question is I want to install resin with
apache support.  The documentatio on Resin site says
that I have to do the following

   unix> ./configure --with-apache- /apache-rootdir
   unix> make

Should I pass /usr/lib/apache or /usr/include/apache
as the parameter to configure?

thanks in advance

It might cause problems in other apps too, but I didn't see the point of
pointing that out since the accounts have already been created using your
organization's standard. It's unlikely you can change any existing

new accounts.

Okay, let me get this straight. You have a form on a Web page, and you
want to set it up so that someone can fill in the form and when they click
"Submit" the contents of the form will be mailed to you.

Is that right?

What is "smtpout.bellatlantic.net"? Is that the SMTP server at the ISP
where the web server is located, or is it the SMTP server at the ISP where
you you want the form data to be sent?

If I have this all wrong, then you need to give more details on what
exactly it is that you are trying to do. Asking "Where to I put this to
make sendmail work?" is just too broad. Sendmail does lots of different
things. What you are asking is similar to "How do I get my Swiss Army knife
to work?" That's probably why you haven't gotten an answer; you haven't
been specific enough with your question.

Resolver behaviour

[Owen V. Gray]

I have an RH7.2 box running a caching name server that forwards first to
my cable ISP's name servers. My resolv.conf contains the following
entries:

nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 24.153.23.66
nameserver 24.153.22.67
search ym.phub.net.cable.rogers.com

When I log on to updates.redhat.com via ftp or ncftp the following entry
appears in /var/log/messages:

Mar 24 13:48:50 gw named[23559]: lame server on
'updates.redhat.com.ym.phub.net.cable.rogers.com' (in
'phub.net.cable.rogers.com'?): 24.153.22.14#53

(24.153.22.14 is an authoritative name server for
*.ym.phub.net.cable.rogers.com)

So it appears that the resolver is adding the search suffix first when
fed "updates.redhat.com".

The same thing happens if, for example, I access yahoo.com using lynx. I
get a log entry that there is a lame server at
"yahoo.com.ym.phub.net.cable.rogers.com".

I have tried adding the option "ndots:1" to resolv.conf, but it does not
prevent the resolver from first searching with the
ym.phub.net.cable.rogers.com suffix attached, even though the name
searched has one or more dots in it.

Is there something broken here? Can anyone suggest a fix?

Thanks

Re: Nautilus Crash when touchs /mnt/vfat/window

[John P Verel]

I'm running the 2.4.9-10 kernel.  My machine is updated through last
week via up2date.  When I upgraded to 7.2, I found that doing fschk on a
fat32 partition hung the machine, so I turned it off.

I should note that this clearly seems to be a Nautilus problem.  GMC
does not crash in this way.

I've opted out of the ximian update route for up2date.  I note that the
upgrade to 1.0.6 has a bunch of dependency requirements that, frankly, I
don't have the time to tackle.  As the Skipjack beta is now out and,
presumably we'll see a Red Hat 8.0 soon,  I'll wait for that as the
basis to upgrade.

It's not so much for individual users' files that this idea is useful, but
for subgroups of users that want to share files.  The 002 umask (see
/etc/bashrc) means that files created in the group's directory will be
group read-write automatically.  Setting the setgid bit in the group
directory's permissions means that files created in it will inherit the
right gid, and the user-private group scheme ensures that the user's
private files remain unwritable by other users, even with the 002 umask.
Readability of user files is protected by the directory permissions.

But try setting up a shared directory for a subset of some group (like a
few members of users) or several groups (some members of faculty and
students, say) that does the right thing without it.

Dual VGA cards and monitors

[BG]

Hi,
 
I have a Dell 
Optiplex GX-110 which has onboard VGA and I have installed an Nvidia PCI card 
with 64 Mb of memory to enable OpenGL use.  When I boot RH 7.2 the new 
video card is not recognized by Kudzu.  Is the onboard VGA blocking the 
card recognition?  I have no way to disable the onboard VGA with the BIOS, 
I can only set it to AUTO mode which means that both are 
working.
 
If I am able to get 
RH 7.2 to recognize the card will I be able to somehow tell the system to use 
the Nvidia card as the default VGA device?  Can I setup the system to use 
both monitors like the Windblows "Extend My Desktop 
Feature"?
 
TIA,
Bill

What's wrong with using the right tool for the job, an FTP client? The
convenience of having browsers do it is nice, but FTP is normally
handled much better by an FTP client. Just because M$ doesn't supply one
doesn't mean one can't be added.

There are other means, too. Like right-clicking and choosing the save
option. Or getting a download manager that uses drag'n'drop so the link
can be dropped on to that.

Don't know what the bug was. I never heard of it. I was able to install
on a 200mmx, so I can't imagine what the problem might be.

Thanks everyone (less than 10 hours later!).  So the answer is, yes, I
missed it.  Thanks again.

P.S.  My original point still stands: integrating samba and netatalk is
still a bit of a 'challenge'.

This isn't due to the "1 user per group" functionality, but due to the fact
that each users umask is set in such a way that members of the same group
have read-access to their files (umask 026 iirc). So if you want all the
users in one group (f.i. "lusers" - local users) and you make sure that all
the users umasks are set in such a way that only the owner has permissions
(umask 066), then the security is the same.

I personally dislike the "1 user per group" since it is a little bit more
timeconsuming in the beginning to administer accounts. 

Wkr,
Sven Vermeulen

http://us4.samba.org/samba/docs/man/winbindd.8.html
winbindd is a daemon that provides a service for the Name Service Switch
capability that is present in most modern C libraries. The Name Service
Switch allows user and system information to be obtained from different
databases services such as NIS or DNS. The exact behaviour can be configured
throught the /etc/nsswitch.conf file. Users and groups are allocated as they
are resolved to a range of user and group ids specified by the administrator
of the Samba system.

The service provided by winbindd is called `winbind' and can be used to
resolve user and group information from a Windows NT server. The service can
also provide authentication services via an associated PAM module.

> Is it normal on RedHat that each user has it's own group?

Yes.   However, you can add users into whatever group you feel like adding
them.   Simply use groupadd and useradd commands and you can get what SuSe
provides if that's what you want.

I personally like the 1 user per group functionality.  Secure out of the box
is where I want to be.  By default, no user has access to any other user's
data.

Cant download .ISO's with IE 6.0.. please help or am i just SOL?

[Jim Bija]

I cant seem to download the .ISOs from the RHN 
member area. I am pleased to see they added the current BETA to that list, thank 
you Redhat!
 
I did send an email to Redhat support, they told me 
to basically RTFM. Told me to read the download FAQ.
While using IE6 with win98se the download screen 
comes up..my modem shows a ton of activity but i never get to the menu of where 
to save the file, which on all other downloads and other web sites pops up very 
fast. 1-2 seconds at most. I have waited minutes on the RH site..it just 
hangs... I have had others tell me the same thing happens to them, so its just 
not me. God knows how many people are having this problem, and probably becoming 
upset with Redhat.
 
To solve this problem i have to goto a linux box 
(thats remote) use lynx to download it..then down it from there via FTP. Taking 
more then 2x the time to get one image.
I use the win98 box to burn cd's, only way i can 
right now. Can someone look into the HTML code on that page and fix it for IE, 
or just tell me im SOL and ill drop the whole thing and just do what i have to 
do to get those images.. Thanks alot guys...

Problems with 3COM 3c905b

[Jochen Kaechelin]

I just had to reinstall my RedHat7.2 because I was unable to 
reconfigure my 3COM NIC.

RedHat crashed after I tried to redefine my IPs with "Network 
Configuration". After the next reboot my 3COM was not there anymore.

Is there a workaround to fix this Problem?

I use RedHat 7.2, Kernel 2.4.9-31, all updates installed.

/sbin/lspci -v shows the following:
