Forgot to Uninstall RPM?
Dear all, Today I tried to install DB2 7.2 on my Redhat 7.1. I tried several versions downloaded from the web. There are lots of RPMs to be installed. Ascript,db2_setup,is in charge of that.But at one time, I forgot to run the script db2_deinstall before I tried the next version. After the new version overwrote the previous one, the db2_deinstall of the new one can't uninstall the previous installed DB2! I have to remove the directory, /usr/IBMDB2, manually by rm -rf. Then I started the new db2setup. But it doesn't work! Even if I overwrote the new one with the previous one, I can't install DB2 any more! Anyone can help me! Thanks a lot in advance!

Re: RHN ISO's and IE6
On Wed, 27 Mar 2002 01:42:42 -0500 (EST) [EMAIL PROTECTED] quietly intimated: My friend had brought up a thread he raised here reguarding not being able to download the ISO's from the RedHat Network. I was forwarded the answers he had received one of which I feel has been the downfall of the exceptance of Linux as well as many other open source software packages. I have personaly experienced the backlash of comments made without fondation against Microsoft and other proprietary software first hand through my boss and about 90 percent of the other employees at my place of employment. Comments like: Not off hand. But I can guarantee a little research can turn it up. Makes the Linux community look like a bunch of uninformed anti Microsoft drones. To say something is broken and then say: History. Read about it. It's all over the internet, some phony, some real. Is not argue the benefits of Linux it only makes the community look like the only way that their product will make it in mainstream business is not to point out Linux's pluses and advantages it has over Windows. but instead make the community look like mud slinging politicians whos only way to win is by smearing mud in the face of the competition. Anyways all I am saying is PLEASE don't make Linux out to be better because Microsoft has a bad history. Instead point out the pluses that running a Linux server can bring to a buisness. Lets face it folks the old stance well Linux is more stable and so on will not work for ever even a blind squirle finds a nut everyonce and a while and face it the latest battery of Windows OS's have definatly started to prove themselves more stable as the years have past. Instead we need to focus on the flexiblity of customizing programs by modifying source that is freely available with out the worries of high cost and EULA that have over time become even more constraining over time. As the author of lose lines, let me take my shot. Yes, I penned those words exactly as given. However, context it missing, And without it the appearance is far different than this would make things appear. The specific question was, how could I be sure MS was deliberately making the browser less than functional rather than just messing it up by accident? My reply was the history part. And not everyone has an unlimited time period to go look up and cite sources to get everything needed to back up claims at a moment's notice. But, I left open the possibility of doing so later, if a challenge came to the content, which it did not in this case. I started making a long reply in answer to this. Instead I'll simply say, keep things in context next time. Then if you want to rant against the context, we can deal. And, my reply stands. If anyone can't see the history of how MS manages to kill off competition, or take over their products and push them out, or any of the myriad other things they've done and are doing to this day, no amount of explanation is going to suffice. Stories are everywhere. You can't believe everything you read, and some of it is intentionally made up or distorted. But it is all over the web. And a little filtering can clear away a lot of the sewage that passes for fact. It was a simple reply to a question, and based, as now, on the fact it's early AM and I have to get ready for work soon. I left the possibility open for further research if the content was challenged. That hasn't happened, as your going on appears more about the tone than the substance. Too bad. Keep it in context next time if you really want to appear o be making a challenge. The question was not about the merits of linux. It started about why a link wouldn't work. I presumed, since it was a download, that it was FTP. It then turned out it was https, and it was being attempted with IE. I pointed out (rightly) that IE has problems and was asked about it. Your furthering of it subtracted the context and made it sound as if I was failing to misrepresent linux, or represent users of it in a poor light. Again, nothing about linux was mentioned, excepting the link that started this all was about downloading a linux-related item. I made my point, not to say linux is superior, or that they should use linux and forget the other stuff, but to say IE is a kludge. It is. I stand by it. And if you'd like to challenge _THAT_ then say so and I'll get beck to you when I get home tonight. ANYWAYS... Sorry about the rant its just I hate having to mend the damage this type of Microsoft flaming causes me in talking my boss into allowing more trouble free Linux servers into the work place :) No flaming happened at the outset. The original claim by me, not altogether different from your statements below, was that IE had problems, and using other things (different browser and download manager were both offered as examples) would get around that. How is my _original_ statement any different from your own below? What you took issue

Re: Replacement for telnet
What I learner from the list is there appears to be no feature reach telnet package available. Ben Logan had a good method of using 'script' for logging all information on the screen. Unfortunately it adds all the control characters in the file. I have not found an easy method of removing the characters. Ed Wilts had suggested using c-kermit. This does more than telnet and is an interesting package. For logging it does the same thing as script, puts all the control characters in the log file as well. Viodit (M. Brown) suggested turning on logging with xterm. Unfortunately Red Hat has disabled this feature and not made it clear how to turn it back on. The man pages says logging is turned off, but does not say how to turn it back on. david ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

The reason I made the request is because I felt you wouldn't be able to back it up, especially the comment that it was intentionally broken to further IE dominance and it was not a bug. A recent eWeek article (March 18) covered an interoperability issue between IE and Apache. I'll quote After eWeek Labs alerted Microsoft to the discover, a Microsoft spokesman state that the company has identified the issue and will work on a fix. I don't know if this is the same issue that started this thread, but does show that Microsoft can acknowledge interopability issues and that they're not always evil.

But, I left open the possibility of doing so later, if a challenge came to the content, which it did not in this case. Consider yourself challenged :-) but could it be that after following the link to download the ISO that it is then being redirected to an ftp site uses as does the normal public ftp.redhat.com email for a password anonymous ftp access??? If so I it is more than likely running into the same problem IE has with ftp.redhat.com in that the ftp server is rejecting the anonymous password that IE passes which is IEUser which is rejected by the ftp server due to the fact it is not formated as an email address??? Netscape formats a fake email address off the bat to get around this. So how is this actually an IE issue? I see this as an ftp server issue. wu-ftpd has specific ftpaccess commands to deal with this issue (man ftpaccess, look for passwd-check). If this is the case if RH was to do away with the email for password or no access clause in the ftp servers config things should start working. Besides does anyone actually put a real email address as their password anyways :) See above. I don't know which ftp server Red Hat is using, but they have control over what they'll accept.

David responded: This will work, the problem is trying to identify all the escape sequences. Try running script then run 'ls' and then telnet to another device. You will see a number of different escape sequences. Actually, as written, it will not work. It will replace all of the M characters at the beginning of any line with nothing, i.e., delete it. You have to have an ACTUAL control-M character in the line. But, besides that, you are correct, the Xterm escape sequences are tough to get rid of, since you have to also get drid of the normal ASCII characters that are part of the escape string. A Perl or Awk script could accomplist that. I'd recompile xterm and turn on the feature.

Well there's exactly what I want and there's good enough. Good enough may be piping your typescript through col -b and then through tr -d '\011' like so: cat typescript | col -b | tr -d '\011' It might be a teeny bit better in conjunction with the knowledge that all those !@#$% colors in your ls output can be disabled by doing ls --color=never instead of just ls. An accurate log of a session should include the control codes, but if what you absolutely have to have is a cooked, text-only version as would be produced by xterm's original logging option, then (as someone else already said i think) you can recompile xterm. :-( Wonder why they chopped that out... -Original Message- From: dbrett [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, March 27, 2002 6:15 AM To: Eric Wood Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Replacement for telnet Hi Eric This will work, the problem is trying to identify all the escape sequences.

To blame all of our problems on MS or close our webpages to browsers we do not like is more detramental to the open source community, or any business for that matter, than good. RedHat was quick to point out in an article the fact Netscape and other browsers could not open msn.com although this was an intentional move on Microsofts part I feel that not fixing an unintentional problem once it is found out is just as bad. Fact: The most widely used browser on the market today is IE, Even if this was gained through shady business practices we still as web developers must remeber this and make sure we are not doing away with over half of the possible clients on the Internet due to not wanting to cater to an Evil Empire as some would say. I still say this IS NOT an IE problem but a server side or for that matter a web developer problem. Simply put if your going to offer a service, especially one for a fee, over the web you should make sure it is accessable to the vast majority of users and face it folks netscape and mozilla do not have near the base IE does. Plain and simple telling someone to change browsers if a site don't work is not a solution on the Internet.

Reverse dns private IPs
Hi folks! Ok, I'm at my wits end here and I'm hoping someone can give me some pointers in the right direction. I am running RedHat 7.2 as a PDC, with Postfix for my SMTP server, and UW's Imap server for POP. Here's what I'm observing: From the local network...When I try to SSH into the linux box, connect via POP, send mail, or log into the domain, it frequently takes up at least 30 seconds to establish a connection. From the outside world...When I try to SSH into the linux box, connect via POP, or send mail, its a snap (just a few seconds at most) to connect to the box. It almost seems as if something on the box is trying to do reverse dns lookups on private IPs. I've been searching in vain to try and figure out what controls this and how to either a) configure it to not do reverse dns on private ips, or b) turn off reverse dns altogether. I've searched all the specific application conf files for Postfix, Samba, SSH, etc, and can't find anything. The fact that this slowness is affecting all of these programs seems to suggest that the problem is occurring at some lower level that they all use. Unfortunately, I'm at a loss as to where to look next.

Re: add mod_ssl to apache under RH 7.2
So, would I be correct to say that one could do port-based hosting like: https://real-host.tld:449/ https://name-based-host00.tld:44900/ https://name-based-host01.tld:44901/ https://name-based-host02.tld:44902/ ... and so on... or simply have apache make the secure 3ld point to port 44900 on the IP address of name-based-host.tld, thus becoming: https://secure.real-host.tld/ https://secure.name-based-host00.tld/ https://secure.name-based-host01.tld/ https://secure.name-based-host02.tld/ ... which is exactly what I want?

installing secondary NIC question
Hi. I-ve just installed a secondary NIC. I was promped from my redhat 7.2 if I want to migrate the settings from my first eth0 card which I answered yes to.So all works fine. My old etho has become eth1 and my new realtech 8139 has become eth0. I want etho to connect to my adsl modem and eth1 to the hub for my subnet. Now the question is. It was always nessassary to perform a modprobe on my old card 3c509 before I found out I could add this line in rc.local. But now I try to perform a modprobe at my new rtl8139, but the module was not found. The question is if I now had to perform a modprobe to that card after I now have rebooted to get internet working, or is this automaticly done when I migrated the card. If I had to modprobe then I suppose I must compile the driver that was supported by the card? = Investigating the Norwegain 4.th Secret Service The multiheaded animal. http://hjem.sol.no/altiett/knut_ove_hauge_kuren.html __ Sjekk snørapporter... fra 500 ski-destinasjoner i Europa på http://no.snow.yahoo.com/ ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Re: in.telnetd help please.
ok.
I assume that you are using a RH7*.
1- Go to the /etc/xinetd.d
2- If there is not a telnet file then do it
3- and copy these into your telnet file that you have just made
This part is not included--
# default: on
# description: The telnet server serves telnet sessions; it uses \
# unencrypted username/password pairs for authentication.
service telnet
{
disable = yes
flags = REUSE
socket_type = stream
wait= no
user= root
server = /usr/sbin/in.telnetd
log_on_failure += USERID
}
---This part is not included--
4- run setup and now goto the services section.
Now you should see the telnet in the services section.If you want to
start telnet while booting then you should select in this section..
5- lastly, you run this: /etc/rc.d/init.d/xinetd restart
I think now your telnet daemon works..
If you do these steps please tell me whether it work or not.

Renaming host
So I posted numerous times about the issue hostname changing. No response... which is cool. So I embarked down to find out what are the specifics about renaming a host. My main attempt was to do this on a running system. The reason I'm doing this is part of a large testing environment. So I ultimately know simple steps in the renaming process, however they involve a reboot rather than a simple network restart. Here is the process: 1. Edit /etc/sysconfig/network 2. Reboot I also had to deal with changing nameservers: 1. Edit /etc/resolv.conf 2. service network restart I also had to deal with Tripwire: 1. Rename the Key file 2. Rename the database (and the backup file) 3. Dump old reports (my preference) 4. Edit old profile and put in new hostname 5. Update the database with new profile I wrote a script that deals with all of this for me and great I rename the system and after the reboot it's cool. The thing that bothers me is why I can't do this without a reboot. Not know where else to look I'm asking if anyone knows any other info that can help me. ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

AFAIK, the host's hostname can be set/changed with the command hostname. I believe this is how /etc/rc.sysinit sets it on a system boot. It sources /etc/sysconfig/network which sets the variable HOSTNAME to it's current value. You should be able to run hostname with the name as a arguement.

PCMCIA woes
I've just upgraded from RedHat 7.0 to 7.2 and all went very well except the pcmcia services. At the time I conducted the upgrade I had pcmcia services set not to start at boot because of system lockups that were occuring during the 7.0 boot process. Well, in a way it did. PCMCIA has problems when it tries to start at boot time. A review of the situation revealed that two modules were loaded; yenta_socket.o and ds.o.

AFAIK, the host's hostname can be set/changed with the command hostname. I believe this is how /etc/rc.sysinit sets it on a system boot. It sources /etc/sysconfig/network which sets the variable HOSTNAME to it's current value. You should be able to run hostname with the name as a arguement.

The reason I made the request is because I felt you wouldn't be able to back it up, especially the comment that it was intentionally broken to further IE dominance and it was not a bug. A recent eWeek article (March 18) covered an interoperability issue between IE and Apache. I'll quote After eWeek Labs alerted Microsoft to the discover, a Microsoft spokesman state that the company has identified the issue and will work on a fix. I don't know if this is the same issue that started this thread, but does show that Microsoft can acknowledge interopability issues and that they're not always evil. In a continuance of your MS rant, you claimed (I'm paraphrasing since I deleted the earlier article) want proof? see the Sun lawsuit. This lawsuit hasn't even gone to trial yet.

The search cmae up with 10 pages displayed, maybe more. Granted, not all are about the subject, but the first 3 should tell you something. You are talking about another suit. That hasn't been to court. In that one Sun claims MS is intentionally crippling XP vis a vis Java. That hasn't been to court. But, I'm confident that in the end it will result in another settlement or a finding of guilt. The specific question was, how could I be sure MS was deliberately making the browser less than functional rather than just messing it up by accident? My reply was the history part. Which is a totally bogus response. History does not project the future. If this were the case, we'd all be millionares on the stock market. We've all done some stupid or wrong things in the past - it doesn't mean we're bad or wrong people now. I have the email. I'll paraphrase myself here. MS has a policy known as embrace and extend. A more apt description would be embrace and steal. They've done this numerous times throughout their history. In most instances, this means taking someone's ideas, changing them a little bit, push the product cheap or free, begin cornering the market, keep changing the standards enough that the original owner has to spend a fortune to catch up, force the original owner to drop out of business or drop the product. The most famous case was with Stac Electronics, in which Microsoft stole the technology from a small company that dealt with disk compression. They were sued and lost. Byt the time it was over, Stac didn't have any of the original business left: keywords: stacker microsoft http://www.base.com/software-patents/articles/stac.html http://www.vaxxine.com/lawyers/articles/stac.html They made deals with IBM over OS/2. They were even quoted as stating that OS/2 was the wave of the future. They then took the ideas from OS/2, abandoned the project and created what we now know as Windows (TM) (TheyWish). They were attempting to do the same with Java, they violated the license, they were sued, they saw the writing on the wall, they abandoned the project, they settled because they knew they would lose.

Secure ftp (was Re: RHN ISO's and IE6)
Yes, I know, putty isn't a secure ftp client. But it gets me in securely and it works. I could have easily used others like ws_ftp or something. But the point is, IE (at least through 5.5 and I'd be surprised if 6 was any better) sometimes has trouble with ftp. Anonymous or secure. Since I've spent a lot of hours recently looking at secure ftp options, I thought I'd take this opportuntiy to change the thread and cover this instead of MS/IE bashing (which may be valid but isn't really relevant to redhat-list). Secure ftp is actually documented in an RFC (whose number escapes me right), and is unfortunately a moving target. The standard started with AUTH SSL protocol commands, but they've seen gone away and aren't recommended. ws_ftp, which you referenced, does not comply with the current version of the standard - it uses deprecated features like AUTH SSL. The current standard is ftp/tls and ws_ftp hasn't even committed to supporting it yet, let alone have it scheduled for a future release. Red Hat, AFAIK, does not ship *any* secure ftp clients in 7.2. wu-ftpd in rawhide does support secure ftp transfers. I'm trying to convince Red Hat that ckermit should ship as part of the standard distribution - it supports connection over ssh, ftp/tls, telnet, serial lines, has all the good old scripting we all know and love, and just plain works for just about everything. The sad part is that with all the work being done on secure ftp clients and servers, they're very unfriendly to firewalls and even with both ends working, you may get blocked by your firewall. Now that I've rambled on again, I believe you probably meant authenticated ftp, not secure ftp - ie, pass a username/password to the browser. For authenticated ftp, IE sucks. It flat out sucks. Badly. It barely works, keeps your password in clear text in your history, doesn't allow you to upload at all, and should not even ship in its current state.

Re: RHN ISO's and IE6
Im happy to say that linuxiso.org now has all of RHL beta now a days. I also found a mirror that i get 400k a sec+, i get around 250 from RHN. My concern is for people who are paying 60$ a year so they can get the ISO's faster. I would think this would be considered part of the RHN service, atleast ive seen it advertised as part of the perks of paying. Well, this part of the RHN is broken. Plain and simple. No FTP client will fix this break, and its up to the RHN people to fix it. As stated in this thread most people on the internet are browsing with IE. All these people can not download the ISO's that they are infact paying for unless they install another browser, which i think is ridiculous. This whole thread kind of went astray and got out of hand i think with more flames then my last bon fire. I figured my post would come to the attention of a RHN admin or web dev guy somewhere and perhaps the problem would be investigated. I will be sending an email or 2 off to the RHN people and ask them to look into and see what they say. Perhaps in the future IE users will be able to download ISO's via RHN's https pages, or perhaps they will be forced to go Netscape or maybe other browsers or just use mirrors. More then anything else i just wanted to know what the bug was with IE and that web page. I HATE knowing something is broken, and not knowing how its broke, and how to fix it if it happens to me.

Nice little kernel panic
So this morning I went to one of my RH72 systems (that is a dual boot with winbloz me -not for me) and it was locked up (it runs most of the time in Linux) and I know it was locked up in Linux because I was on it last night and I leave it in Linux to run tripwire at 4am. So I moved the mouse and the monitor never turned on... Tried CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE to get it out of gnome and to a command prompt. No deal. Tried CTRL+ALT+F5 to try and force it to another. No Deal. Hit the power button, but the person who uses the winbloz me need to work so I went on my merry way. Tonight when I went back to that system and shutdown winbloz and brought up RH72 there is a kernel panic error. I'm not sure what to do with it so, before I make matters worse, I though I would see if anyone has any suggestions. I grabbed a few more lines but here is the booting messages: mounting root filesystem kjournald starting. commit interval 5 seconds EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. pivotroot: pivot_root(/sysroot, sysroot/initrd) failed: 2 Freeing unused kernel memory: 220k freed kernel panic: no init found. try passing init= option to kernel. And that's where it stops.
