...Backup Laws
Hi everyone, I saw Ashley K.M send a topic on backups. I wish you give some links where I can learn to make backups. This including different case so I can restore in the best and quick way lost data, configuration or partition... I'd like to know what partition to backup, what kind of restore it gives, what to do when made an integral backup and these incrementals ones when just a partition had been erased... What to do i.e when installed and configured MySQL day d, and then after installing and configured severals stuff on my system until incremental backup on day d+9, and crash my MySQL server... All of thing like this that make me prevent huge cases of losing face when something wrong happen. Thank you for all good doc (is there nothing on it on sourceforgee ?)... olé, ism -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

writing DVDs
Title: Message Hi all, This is my first attempt at backing data on DVDs. Currently I have a program that backs up some data on a external firewire HDD. I dont format HDD but I use it in raw mode. When I get a HDD all I do is create a primary partition. So all my code does is: 1) open the device (/dev/sd?1) 2) make simple write and lseek calls Now I plan to use DVDs for the same purpose (R only). Can I simply write raw data to a DVD and read it back as I do now. If not what else will be involved here? I have a feeling it might not be as simple as it is with the HDD. Any help is appreciated -Pranay

can you ping IP outside IPs form your Windoze machines?

Re: Again I can ping the outside world but....
But this problem is most likely caused by a lack of DNS server entries in the network configuration of the windows boxen. That's exactly right methinks. This person (although trying hard) is running before he walks so to speak. He's not understanding any concepts before diving in and asking the questions. Please don't flame me for giving him the following advice. Knut, For now, just put the ISP's DNS server address in the Windows Boxes. This will get you going fast.

Re: Partition table lost the Linux partitions - How to recover?
Hello, Peter Kiem wrote: Stupid me used MSDOS fdisk to delete a partition and it rewrote the partition table without the Linux ones. Is there some tool that can scan the harddrive and find the partitions? The data should be still there, just need to recreate the partition table. I did something like this a couple of years ago. I had no idea of what the size of the partitions was but I knew the parition names and the filesystems that were mounted on each one. Lets say your parition layout looked something like the following: /dev/hda1 on /boot type ext3 (rw) /dev/hda2 on /var type ext3 (rw) /dev/hda3 on /usr type ext3 (rw) /dev/hda5 on /home type ext3 (rw) /dev/hda7 on / type ext3 (rw) /dev/hda4 is a Windows extended parition which fills the rest of the disk. /dev/hda6 is the swap parition. # fdisk -l /dev/hda Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 2434 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes Device BootStart EndBlocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 3 24066 83 Linux /dev/hda2 4 1278 10241437+ 83 Linux /dev/hda3 1279 2338 8514450 83 Linux /dev/hda4 2339 2434771120f Win95 Ext'd (LBA) /dev/hda5 2339 2370257008+ 83 Linux /dev/hda6 2371 2402257008+ 82 Linux swap /dev/hda7 2403 2434257008+ 83 Linux What I did was to create the hda1 so that it was larger than the actual file system on the disk. Then use dumpe2fs to find the actual size in blocks for the file system. # dumpe2fs /dev/hda1 | egrep '^Block count' Block count: 24066 Run fdisk and delete /dev/hda1 and recreate it using the correct block count and fsck it to make sure it is still fine. NOTE: Do not allow fsck to make any changes to the file system. You might inadvertently destroy the file system (or the next one) if the parition was created with the wrong size and fsck decides to 'fix' it. # e2fsck -n -f /dev/hda1 .^^ This opens the file system in read-only mode and assumes no to all questions. If hda1 happends to be the root partition that contains the /etc/fstab file you can mount it read-only and have a look at what the partition layout should be. Next, start with hda2 followed by hda3. Create a parition of the appropriate type larger than the actual file system. Get the size of the file system using dumpe2fs. Delete the partition and re-create it using the correct block count. Upto this point all the partitions were primary partitions. The next step is to create the extended partition on /dev/hda4 which spans the whole drive. The rest of the partitions are all logical (created within the extended partition). Create a logical partition, /dev/hda5, larger than the underlying file system and use dumpe2fs to determine the file system size. Delete the hda5 partition and re-create it using the correct block count. For the swap parition, /dev/hda7, I create the paritions by specifying the sizes using a format like 256M, 128M or 64M etc. I just re-create it using the same size with the correct type. If you're not sure of the size and you have already recovered the parition that contains the /var file system, /dev/hda2 in this case. Mount /dev/hda2 read-only and look for the swap size in /var/log/dmesg or /var/log/messages. # egrep 'Adding Swap' dmesg Adding Swap: 257000k swap-space (priority -1) On this machine I used '256M' in fdisk when I specified the size of the swap parition. All that remains is hda7, and since its the last parition on the disk it is simply recreated using all available space. Use dumpe2fs to make sure that you have the correct size. If the block count reported by dumpe2fs is different, delete the parition and recreate it with the correct size. If the swap parition was created with the wrong size dumpe2fs will probably fail and you'll have to delete both the swap and current partition and try again with different sizes. This worked for me it might not work for you. I'm doing this from memory so it probably contains a lot of inaccuracies and since your setup will more than likely be different this only gives you some idea on how you can recover the partitions. You'l probably need a good recovery floppy or cd-rom with the correct tools on them. A search for 'recover parition' on freshmeat.net returned some usefull links as well.

RE: Photo-quality printer and software?
You can run an Espon 1270 on Linux using Gimp Print filters for quality output, and gthumbs is an image management program. If you use KDE, Konquerer allows you to preview all the images in a folder, and create web galleries of the folders. It will work, but windows programs do this better. We do a lot of this work and can't see leaving windows just yet. It's hard to stop using a program like ThumbsPlus for image management. What I would really like is a server based image management program with windows clients so all users can see the thumbnails, notes, virtual galleries.

IP MASQ + iproute mess
Hi.. First I'd like to point out that I'm having a semi-problem of routing and masquerading... The routing and masquerading I want to do, is working fine with what I have done, but it's giving some problem with traceroutes, making them not work correctly or as expected... so I believe something is not working as it should.. so here goes the detail of the situation and what I have done, sorry for the long mail I've been running a network with IP Masquerading for about an year now without any problem. All routing is been made by iproute2, source routing, etc, and masquerading via ipchains since I'm using Kernel 2.2.19pre17 Until some days ago, the network consisted of a Linux box behind the router that conects to the Internet, and my LAN on the other side of the Linux box. The Router has an E1 connection separated into 2 channels, one that goes directly to Internet, and the other to UyNet (UruguayNet), which is the main backbone and network across my country (Uruguay). So if I want to access any site on the Internet like google.com, it goes through one channel, and if I want to access a site in Uruguay it goes through the other one.. I got several different networks in my LAN which I have always masqued with ipchains with no problem.. some days ago, we added a second connection which has only one channel that accesses both, Internet and UyNet You can see how it looks like in http://juanin.com/net.jpg The connection through Router 1 is the new connection with one channel, and the one through Router 2 is the connection we have always used with the 2 separated channels.. What I want to do is to route traffic from certain of my LANs to Internet through Router 1 and traffic from other of the LANs to Internet through Router 2. BUT, all traffic to UyNet must be routed through the UyNet Channel in Router 2. by default I masquerade my the LANs like this: ipchains -I forward -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j MASQ -i eth0 what I did for testing purposes is to leave everything as it is, but route my own machine (192.168.1.137) to Internet through Router 1 and to UyNet through Router2, by use of iproute2 source routing: ip ro add default gw [Router 1 IP address] table xx ip ro add [all Uynet networks] via [Router 2 IP address] table xx ip ru add from [eth2 IP address] lookup xx ip ru add from 192.168.1.137 lookup xx I also added the following in order to masq my machine through eth2 and go to Internet through Router 1 ipchains -I forward -s 192.168.1.137 -j MASQ -i eth2 all of this works fine, and I go routed as I want... BUT the problem I got is that traceroutes now don't work as expected... If I traceroute an Internet address (for example google or yahoo) I see the first step to 192.168.1.1 (my default gw, eth1), all the next hops through the Uruguayan network appear as packet loss without being able to be resolved until it goes out to the Internet where it continues in a normal way... if I traceroute an address from the UyNet network, some hops are resolved ok, and some are unresolved too... here are 2 examples: Example 1, traceroute to internet address C:\Documents and Settings\juanintracert www.yahoo.com Traza a la dirección www.yahoo.akadns.net [64.58.76.178] sobre un máximo de 30 saltos: 11 ms1 ms1 ms 192.168.1.1 2 *** Tiempo de espera agotado para esta solicitud.

Re: non-interactive FTP to transfer file

I'd run pstree -u and see if there are any strange new processes operating. The top command might work, and obviously the /proc file system will give you all the process information, but you may not get a straight answer from ps since some rootkits replace it with a broken version that shows you only the normal processes. Also, look at your inetd/xinetd configuration and /etc/services to see if anything has been changed. Running netstat will give you some of that information. Are your log files intact (no files or lines obviously missing)? Were you running tripwire, and, if so, are the databases backed up? There is a rootkit sniffer that will search for known malicious code on a filesystem; I forget the name but it is documented on www.insecure.org. At some point, when you've seen and documented what you wanted to see about the state of the running system, by all means SHUT IT DOWN unless it is somehow mission critical to let it run.

As part of your clean up, first remove the bogas file. Unless you feel lucky, back up data files, and then reformat the hard drive and do a fresh install. You should also try to find out how the cracker got in. Likely you were not keeping patches up to date. Good luck.

Stuck in INIT: and can't get out of it...
Hello List... I'm trying this again as I'm pretty desperate. Booting my rh 7.0 machine hangs at INIT:. Running a repair install, I can access the disks, mount partitions and see the files sysinit and rc which appear intact (with root execute attributes). I have a backup of the machine (made with taper). I feel everything is within reach but fail to understand why INIT cannot execute the files. I've searched the web on this but haven't found any definite leads on how to proceed. I'd hate to scratch the machine when it seems the data is accessible... can anyone help? The booting sequence is as follows, and just loops on the cannot execute lines: INIT: version 2.78 booting INIT: cannot execute "/etc/rc.d/init.sysinit" INIT: Entering runlevel: 3 INIT: cannot execute "/etc/rc.d/rc" INIT: Id "1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes INIT: Id "2" respawni (similar lines up to Id "6") INIT: no more processes left in this runlevel. (The boot sequence previous to the above lines appearsto beOK) Thanks for any advice... /j-p.Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Finance - Get real-time stock quotes
RPM unsatisfied dependecies
I am having a problem installing packages with RPM. A dependency (/sbin/install-info) exists in the filesystem, but is reported as being an unsatisfied dependency. It is my impression that dependency checking occurs within the RPM database, so I'm guessing that somehow /sbin/install-info doesn't exist in the RPM database. I have run rpm --rebuilddb, but still get the same error. Has anyone had an experience like this, or have any thoughts about why this could happen? MORE DETAILS: I am trying to install the updated glibc packages listed in http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2002-166.html Specifically, for RH7.1 i386, they are #ls glibc-2.2.4-29.i386.rpm glibc-devel-2.2.4-29.i386.rpm glibc-2.2.4-29.i686.rpm glibc-profile-2.2.4-29.i386.rpm glibc-common-2.2.4-29.i386.rpm nscd-2.2.4-29.i386.rpm When I try to install the packages I get the following dependency error: # rpm -Fvh *.rpm error: failed dependencies: /sbin/install-info is needed by glibc-devel-2.2.4-29 However, it appears that /sbin/install-info exists: # /sbin/install-info --version install-info (GNU texinfo) 4.0 ... Checking to see if other applications require /sbin/install-info yielded a long list of packages: # rpm -q --whatrequires /sbin/install-info and verifying these packages reveals other unsatisfied dependencies. For example: # rpm -V gcc-2.96-81 Unsatisfied dependencies for gcc-2.96-81: /sbin/install-info That's as far as I've got. Any help would be welcomed!
