Re: ftp connects but very slow to prompt

2002-11-14 Thread Willem van der Walt[EMAIL PROTECTED]
I had a simmelar problem with ftp.
I solved it by adding a host entry of the ftp client machine into the 
/etc/hosts file of the machine running the ftp server.  You could also 
look at your resolv.conf files of both machines.  If the dns that is 
specified there is unreachable,
one also get delays like you describe.  For testing you might try
with a resolv.conf on both just containing
nameserver 127.0.0.1

 Hi,

 The two problems may be seperate but I suspect they are related.
 the hosts  host.conf, hosts.allow, hosts.deny seem to be identical.
 I also have a auto switchbox to share the printer so both print

 a different printer so I setup LPRng with Machine2 as a print

 Machine1 to serve as print server for a colored printer. It
 took litterally 20 minutes for the job to print, so I went
 back to the switch box. The whole thing is driving me nuts.
 Does anyone have suggestion on how I can figure out what is
 wrong?

Re: network card problems in RH 8

2002-11-14 Thread Edward Dekkers
 I finally got it working. I decided to copy all the DNS settings that 7.3
 automatically puts into the network setting and I now can access the net.
It
 could be the DHCP router but can anyone explain why 7.3 works with the
DHCP
 router and 8.0 won't.

That makes sense. If DHCP is set up properly, then it will set up:

IP Address
DNS Servers
Gateways
+ some others but these are most common.

Just simply putting in your ip address is not enough in your case. You
must've realised this? If not, I'm a little surprised.

The fact that DHCP is not working? I don't know. It still smells like DHCP
packets aren't coming through - but you've already said you checked that -
so I really don't know.

Re: PATH and TFTP daemon in RH8

2002-11-14 Thread Awuku Danso
There are no error messages with regard to the tftp daemon. With RH7.3 it did show up 
on the screen during boot time to be loading and as I said earlier worked fine. But I 
still don't understand why it doesn't work with RH8.0 given that all the files I have 
looked at seem to be the same. Does anyone know if I've missed a file which may have 
have been added to version 8.0?

On the second question, I used to add other directories to the PATH environment, 
certainly on RH 7.3, in the rc.sysinit file but it seems to have been removed from 
this file. I did look at the /etc/profile as this was the place to do it in the 
earlier versions RH6.0 etc, but 7.3 and 8.0 have a different /etc/profile format. I 
don't understand the PATHMUNGE syntax and I don't know how it works. How would I add a 
directory, say /usr/local/something/another to the PATH to make it available 
system-wide? The story is this: I'm trying to install an anti-virus program which 
requires the file ldconfig but reports it can't find it. The file, however, resides 
in /sbin which I believe by default is in the system PATH setting.

Check your /var/log/ log files for error messages.

Sound problem with kernel 2.4.18-17.8.0

2002-11-14 Thread Sasa Ostrouska
Hi to all,

   I have a Dell Inspiron 8100 and installed RH8.0 the 
installation detected the
soundcard and works well with kernel 2.4.18-14 from the CD. The problem 
I have here
is that with both kernels I'm unable to use the line-in and the mic on 
the laptop to record.
This was possible with RH7.3 I had before. I noticed also that when I 
upgraded the
kernel thru RHN update to the kernel 2.4.18-17.8.0 the soundcard stop 
working. So
when I boot in the old original kernel I have sound but no recording 
when I boot in the
last kernel from RH I have no sound at all. There is also a freeze 
because esd is
started automaticaly and untill I kill esd I can not use X. There also 
apears an message on the
console every few seconds. I will try to post it if somebody is interested.

Any help would be apreciated.

Many thanks
Sasa

 In another post Steve Cowles made mention of Procmail. It looks like
 Procmail was installed by default when I installed RH8. Do I need to
 disable or configure anything in there?

SpamAssassin only identifies the mail as spam; it's up to you to filter
the mail and shunt the spam to another file.  There's a pretty good
procmail tutorial at http://www.ii.com/internet/robots/procmail/qs/
which is well worth reading, as are the procmail, procmailrc, and
procmailex manpages.  A basic procmail recipe for spamassassin looks
like this:


MAILDIR=$HOME/Mail
 
:0fw
| spamassassin -P

:0:
* ^X-Spam-Status: Yes
spam

Basically if there's a X-Spam-Status: Yes header the mail gets sent to
the ~/Mail/spam file.  Spamassassin has never once tagged legitimate
mail as spam, but I go through my spamfile once a month or so just to
make sure.  

I have to say, between spamassassin and friends, mozilla's privacy
features, and the filterproxy (filterproxy.sf.net) web filter, the net
seems like the good old days before Canter  Siegal and all of their
successors.  No spam, no ads, pop-up or otherwise, no theft of my time
or privacy.  Very nice.  I am always amazed when I use someone else's
computer and see how they're continually assaulted by all the crap out
there.  I honestly don't know how anyone can stand it.

My problem was that one of my harddrives was damaged. Did a low level
format on it from the BIOS, and found that nearly every other track was
bad. Switched it, and everything worked fine. Note that I got that error
message at the first package, so it was a bit different from your

Of course, it could be that one of your ISO images are corrupt. Have you

I can access the visor using pilot-xfer -L after hitting the hotsync
button on the visor. I just can't seem to get gpilotd or any of the
gnome/evolution apps to sync.

Is there a way to have gpilotd (once it works) to run in a daemon mode
and sync when ever I hit the hotsync button?

I had being keeping aside the thread, but a similar situation seems to
be happening here in Peru. In December 2001, March and May 2002 a
peruvian congressman proposes a bill to replace the proprietary software
by open software in the public sector.

This started a flame war between the manager of Microsoft Peru (
http://www.gnu.org.pe/mspemail.html)(English translation) and the
congressman (http://www.gnu.org.pe/resmseng.html) (English translation),
even though the American Chamber of Commerce in Lima
(http://www.gnu.org.pe/text-amcham.html)(Spanish) , and the former
American Ambassador
(http://www.gnu.org.pe/lobbyusa-congreso.html)(Spanish fax) declared
that this action could slow down the international cooperation that
Peru receives.

Finally, our president traveled to Seattle, had a meeting with Gates,
received a donation of computers and software for US$500,000 and the
bill for open software was flushed down in the toilet.

Re: printing problem

It usually means that something else is listening to port 515.

As root, run netstat -nap | grep 515 to see what program might already 
be listening on that port.

postfix relaying

2002-11-14 Thread Paul Lee
I have read as much about Postfix configuration as I can find, but there
is still one issue that I am not sure about. I am setting up a mail
server at our main office. No problem there. I would also like for our
two branch offices to use it to send and receive mail, however they both
have dynamic IP addresses (both offices are small and simply use a DSL
connection) so I am not sure how to configure Postfix to allow them to
relay through without opening myself up to becoming a SPAM relay.

Any and all help is appreciated.

A couple of questions on RH 8.0

2002-11-14 Thread Luksa Kraljevic
Hi!
I've just upgraded my RH 7.0 to 8.0 and some things
have quite upseted me.
1. My console doesn't show bold text ( it shows text
that should be bolded as normal ). I had some fancy
aliases that bolded directories when ls -al and i like
that. It bolds text under kterm with TERM=linux

2. Bash [[$TERM==xterm]] doesn't work. Man says [[ ]]
is ok but apparently it is not but (( )) works 

3. ls -al used to show hidden (.files) first now it
mixes them with normal files

4. This is the most unplesent KDE kill's itself when i
switch to console. Not at once but after some time.

If someone know's how to fix at least some of the
things above please help!

thanx
luksa

 aids and can't get treated?

He's not donating money, he never did and he'll never do it.
He's investing money to protect his monopoly, you don't have to be smart
to notice it. Just look (if you can) the arrangements, the requirements,
the years etc... how the money is being offered.
 (is not money is just a copy of software, license, maintenance etc...)
 and who is going to benefit from it?  just the schools or some
goverment agency who control/will control how software is/will be used

HOW POOR PEOPLE ARE BENEFIT FROM IT? Poor people need money or/for

Re: ftp connects but very slow to prompt

2002-11-14 Thread hanfamily
 
 Linda, 
 
 A few things... are you running your own DNS server, or just using hosts?
I am just using hosts the ftp is the weirdest because it tells me that
it has connected to the host and the ipaddress but waits several minutes
to actually give me the service. The telnet acts like it is trying to
use DNS instead of hosts to find the name since it waits and then connects
but connects immediately to the ipaddress yet nsswitch.conf and host.conf
should be looking in hosts first since host.conf is order hosts, bind
and nsswitch.conf has files listed first under services and hosts.
 If running DNS, could be a resolving issue, espeically if FTP is not
 listed in your zone files, along with PTR reversing IP addresses...  Do
 you have your printers assigned to IP addresses?  Could be a resolving
 issue again, or maybe a router problem.. Try pinging to the problem IP FTP
 addresses and the printers.  Or run Tcpdump or scan with nmap or xnmap to
 see what the issues are. I am assuming these are on a LAN.
nmap shows ftp and telnet open on both machines. I have no problem pining
the machine ipaddress how do you ping ftp specifically?

It sounds like you will have to use Dynamic DNS with postfix. In postfix

I have all the machines listed in the /etc/hosts file. I tried the

be a firewall problem since it eventually works. The name resolution
is diffently a problem for telnet since the ip address is immediate
but why when it is listed in hosts and it is suppose to lookup hosts
first in host.conf and files first in nsswitch.conf? Also the ftp
does not seem to be a name resolution problem since it gives me
the name and address it just waits several minutes to actually work.
Maybe I should try reinstalling wu-ftp or using a different version
of ftp for the ftp problem. I am trying cups in hopes it will solve
the printing problem.

RE: bill gates bribes ... uh, invests $400 million in india

2002-11-14 Thread Simpson, Doug
There is a saying amongst NGOs - Tainted money taint enough.
I am sorry but I cannot help but to think of something I once saw while I
worked in a very depressed part of Chicago.  
There were pushers on every street corner.  One day I witnessed people
lining up in front of one of these street corner business men.  I asked a
fellow work what was up and he replied that the crack dealer was giving it
away for free.  Good business because he knew that the people that day he
gave it to be back after they were hooked and buy it.
When the people of India or Peru or Chicago want the next generation
Microsoft product then that is when we will see if Bill is a pusher or a
donator.
Therefore instead of bitching let's start pushing Linux and Open Source
software.  Bill can't give it away forever, but Open Source can.  
By the way what philanthropy does Redhat do??

There is a saying amongst NGOs - Tainted money taint enough.
I am sorry but I cannot help but to think of something I once saw while I
worked in a very depressed part of Chicago.  
There were pushers on every street corner.  One day I witnessed people
lining up in front of one of these street corner business men.  I asked a
fellow work what was up and he replied that the crack dealer was giving it
away for free.  Good business because he knew that the people that day he
gave it to be back after they were hooked and buy it.
When the people of India or Peru or Chicago want the next generation
Microsoft product then that is when we will see if Bill is a pusher or a
donator.
Therefore instead of bitching let's start pushing Linux and Open Source
software.  Bill can't give it away forever, but Open Source can.  
By the way what philanthropy does Redhat do??

Re: Mail Server for home network

2002-11-14 Thread Jake Colman

EW - fetchmail on the Linux system gets the mail from the ISP.  I
EW   schedule
EW   this via cron.
EW - MTA (sendmail in my case)
EW - Fetchmail can automatically kick things over to sendmail
EW - Sendmail automatically runs procmail
EW - Procmail does my filtering.
EW - On the Windows desktops I use Eudora (POP3) and OE (Imap).  My wife's
EW   system is Eudora with POP3 (Eudora is a great POP client but a shitty
EW   IMAP client).  I use OE for IMAP (I'd use Eudora if it could).  My
EW   reason for IMAP is that I read my mail both from Linux via ssh and
EW   from my XP desktop. With procmail, my mailing list e-mail is automatically
EW   filed into folders - something that works with IMAP but not POP3.

EW On my Linux system, I run my DNS and time server.  Sendmail is
EW configured to allow relaying while the network is down so that we can
EW send e-mail if my cable connection is unavailable - sendmail nicely
EW delivers the mail with the link comes back up.  This would work for
EW you
EW - just have sendmail process the queue in your ifup script.

Ed,

Are you fetching from a single ISP mailbox?  Does that mailbox contain mail
for multiple users on your home network?

First of all, you're all preaching to the choir.
Second, I have a friend in Nicaragua that runs a non-profit that could use
your help.  He has computers that are old and the latest technology will not
run on it.  I would be more than happy to pass on info on how to contact him
so that you all can start working on setting up newer computers with Open
Source software and take them down there and teach them how to use them.
I have benefited greatly from Open Source and the hard work of the
community, but I have a connection to the internet and a computer as well as
money to purchase the latest hardware.  A majority of the world does not
have this benefit.  
Free software only works on unfree hardware.

My RH8 box sits on a NT network and can ping all, even the networked

getting 
the RH8 box to print to any/all of these. Can you point me to some help?

regenerating rc.sysinit

2002-11-14 Thread Adam Bowns
Am I right in thinking rc.sysinit is generated at instalation ? If so is
it possible to regenerate it against a running system ?

My reason for wanting to do this is that when i install my custom
kernel, rc.systinit still wants to call modprobe to load lots of modules
that are no longer needed because i have them compiled into the kernel
(such as usb keyboard/mouse) I know that I could just edit the
rc.sysinit script myself but my scripting skills aren't up to the task.


Any help on this would be great, thanks in advance,
Adam.

Printing Delay Problem

2002-11-14 Thread Jake Colman

I am running RH 7.2 with samba.  The printer is an HP LJet Series II
connected via parallel port directly to the server.  Printing from a Win98
system to the samba-hosted printer seems to take an inordinately long time.
The printer's ready light begins flashing right away which means that the
document does get spooled to the linux box and over to the printer.  Could it
be that it's being converted to graphics instead of remaining as text?  The
text being printed are web pages wihtout pictures or Word documents.

shows that it's part of the initscripts package.  as far as i know,

In any case, the lack of bold fonts on the console is a result of the
new default font, used to support UTF-8 character sets.  I don't know if
that will change any time soon.  This change is, I believe, covered in
the release notes.

If what you want works in X, then use X.

 2. Bash [[$TERM==xterm]] doesn't work. Man says [[ ]]
 is ok but apparently it is not but (( )) works 

Those don't do even remotely the same thing.  

Space is significant.  This will work:
[[ $TERM == xterm ]]
This will not:
[[$TERM==xterm]]

 3. ls -al used to show hidden (.files) first now it
 mixes them with normal files

According to english rules, punctuation is not significant when sorting
alphabetically.  If you want ASCII sorting, then set LC_COLLATE=C in
/etc/sysconfig/i18n

 4. This is the most unplesent KDE kill's itself when i
 switch to console. Not at once but after some time.

Don't know anything about that  :-\

good.

  making that part of a cynical, exploitative campaign to strengthen
  your monopoly:
not good.


You were expecting altruism??? Robert Heinlein once noted that if any man
acted out of altruism, he is not to be trusted. When you give to a charity,
do you not try to insure that you are giving to a cause which will use your
money with the greatest efficiency towards it's charitable ends AND is in
keeping with your belief structure? Or do you hear it's for the children
and throw your hard earned money in the bucket without doing any due
diligence? If Bill Gates is anything, he (his behavioral motivation) is a
constant. He wants to win and will take whatever steps he feels necessary to
do so. To expect anything less would be to underestimate the opposition.

I became interested in Linux because it provides the user with access to
high-quality software with minimum financial investment; Lo and behold, I
discovered that Linux has become a fascinating obsession, a virtual Swiss
army knife of usability. However, as most of you are aware, the lack of
financial investment itself comes at a price. There is a steeper (though not
at all unreasonable in my opinion) learning curve than what is associated
with Microsoft OS  Office software. However,,, even the predatory practices
of Microsoft can't account for the overwhelming majority by which the
consumer market has demonstrated with its pocketbook the desire for
functional (though not necessarily excellent) office productivity software
which provides maximum ROI (where I=time). Maybe this speaks to the long
term devaluation of our currency by Mr. Greenspan and his fellow thieves
($1.00 in 1986 = $1.63 today)... or, maybe... most people rank the time
investment in a high-quality, low-cost, secure, stable operating system
lower on their scale of importance than keeping their nose to the grindstone
in order to be able to afford to pay their taxes and their bills so that
they can go watch their son's football game or their daughters recital.

 Am I right in thinking rc.sysinit is generated at instalation ? If so is
 it possible to regenerate it against a running system ?
 
 My reason for wanting to do this is that when i install my custom
 kernel, rc.systinit still wants to call modprobe to load lots of modules
 that are no longer needed because i have them compiled into the kernel
 (such as usb keyboard/mouse) I know that I could just edit the
 rc.sysinit script myself but my scripting skills aren't up to the task.
 
 
 Any help on this would be great, thanks in advance,
 Adam.
 

I believe it is not generated but simply installed as part of the
initscripts package.

my guess on the module deal is either there is something in
/etc/modules.conf that is trigering the module load or that you are not
running the kernel that you think you are.

There may be a depmod thing in there some where but I think that is cone
as part of the boot process at every boot.

RE: rh 8.0 sshd will not fw x11

2002-11-14 Thread Shuler, Bert
ok.. something is very odd... I have another server which I can x11 forward

well, your sshd -d stuff from earlier should have done so I believe. 
you could try adding another d to increase the verbosity. (eg. sshd -dd)
or set the loglevel in sshd_config to DEBUG2 or DEBUG3 if you get tired
of the single test run at a time thing with sshd -d

That said, how valuable are the Redhat classes and will they help someone

bill gates, peru and how to buy software

2002-11-14 Thread Robert P. J. Day

  (if you're tired of this thread, well, there's always
the delete key.)

  as a followup to an earlier posting regarding the 
peruvian congressman who tried to enact a bill to promote
open source software in the national IT infrastructure, there
was one *important* point that may have been missed.

  that bill in no way prevented the consideration or
purchase of microsoft software.  what the bill *did* was to 
lay down some basic requirements for software that would
be purchased by the peruvian government.  it didn't name
any names, it simply stated what was and was not acceptable
in terms of general software attributes.

  the last several emails got me thinking about this, and
i sat down and dashed off a short piece that i'd been
thinking about for a while.  you'll see how this comes
back to the peru/microsoft issue at the end.  basically,
here's my take on the criteria one should use in evaluating
whether or not to purchase/adopt a vendor's software package.

-

Open source
 --

  Despite the constant raving over open source, I don't think
having access to the source code is all that it's cracked up
to be, and I wouldn't necessarily make this a deal-breaker.

  Sure, it would be nice.  At the least, you could check the
code for spyware and Trojan horses, and possibly recompile it
for a different architecture.  But it's certainly possible to
be happy with decent, reliable closed source.  Consider NVIDIA
and their video card drivers; while open source fanatics carp
and whine about the closed source aspect, and granted it does
make it a bit inconvenient to install, I'd be willing to live
with it.  Because, quite simply, there are bigger issues ...

Open formats/protocols
 --- -

  *This* is a deal-breaker -- the fact that all of the software's
file formats and communications protocols be completely and 
accurately documented and publicly available.

  This requirement should not be open for negotiation.  Having
details of the file formats and protocols means you have at least
some chance of debugging if something is going wrong.

  In addition, if the company goes bankrupt and vanishes or
(God forbid) gets into a legal screaming match with you, you're
protected from having your precious data becoming suddenly
and completely inaccessible.

  It's also protection against forced, non-backward-compatible
upgrades, a favorite source of regular revenue.  As long as
you understand the formats and protocols, you always have the
freedom to take your data elsewhere.

  (And don't put up with arguments about how hiding these details
somehow results in more secure code.  Microsoft software is
the very definition of concealed, proprietary code.  And it
leaks like a freaking sieve.)

  Which brings us to the next critical requirement ...

Open interoperability
 

  Associated with open formats and protocols, this means that
you should have the right to use or develop software that will
play nicely with the vendor's package.

  The software should, under no circumstances, contain code
or features whose only purpose is to prevent it from working
with other vendor's software.  If you're paying for the software,
you should expect the right to use it in conjunction with any
other software package that you want.

  Which brings us to the final deal-breaker ...

Open licensing
 -

  (OK, this doesn't really have anything to do with the word
open but I was on a roll.)

  Using a little artistic license here, my idea of open licensing
is that the licensing terms for any software should be written in
clear English, and it should be publicly available for examination
before the purchase.

  You should, under no circumstances, have to sign an NDA or
agree beforehand to *anything* just to know what the licensing
terms are.  This, by definition, disqualifies EULAs that are visible
only after you tear open the shrinkwrapped box.

  In addition, regardless of whether the licensing terms represent
a sale, a lease, a subscription or any other form of use, those
terms should not be changeable arbitrarily by the vendor at any
time.

  And, finally (and related to interoperability), you should just
say no to any software whose licensing terms attempt to dictate
what is and is not acceptable use of the software.  No vendor should
have the right to tell you (beyond what are reasonable licensing
rules) what you can and can't do with the software.  Witness, for
example, Microsoft's amusing clause in the FrontPage EULA which
stated that you can't use that software to develop web sites that
make derogatory comments about Microsoft.  That sort of restriction
should be grounds for immediate disqualification from consideration.



  and that's the criteria.  from memory, this is vaguely
similar to what the peruvian congressman was promoting.
and when the microsoft peru rep complained that the proposed
bill disqualified 

Terminal Emulation probs in RH 8 via SSH

2002-11-14 Thread John_Delisle


I'm connecting to my fancy new Redhat 8 systems using Vandyke SecureCRT
3.4.  I use Linux terminal emulation and vt100 font.


Unfortunately many characters are printed all funky.  I get weird extended
characters where I should have things dashes and commas.  Line draw
characters are even worse!
This makes man pages very ugly.


I've tried all sorts of different emulation and fonts, no help.  Things
work fine when I connect to other systems, such as solaris 8 and redhat
7.3.

Hi:

This may be off-topic.

Red Hat 6.2

Is it possible to set a maximum size for messages accepted by sendmail, on a 
per user basis? What are the configuration parameters?

Thank you and regards.

You can also specify the GATEWAY in the /etc/sysconfig/network file.

MPEG playback

2002-11-14 Thread Joshua Jones
Redhat 8

OK. So I hvae figured out getting my MP3's to work.
But I guess all good multimedia support was taken out?
Anyhow, I can't seem to get MPEG video to play either
(check out some game trailers). Any thoughts. I have
exhausted my research capabilities and have seen few
posts on this. I thought at first it was KDE but I
have no luck under GNOME either. Thanks

Changing the SOFTWARE RAID....

2002-11-14 Thread Richard Tricoche
Title: Changing the SOFTWARE RAID





I currently have (2) 9.1GB SCSI hd's in the new server I am building. I software RAID'd them to do mirroring (RAID1).


I'm thinking about adding a 3rd SCSI drive to the system and making it do RAID5 instead - sometime in the future. Has anyone experienced RAID upgrades like this? Will it work if I wanted to change the RAID on the drives after I add another drive?

Am I better off waiting the extra few weeks or whatever to get the 3rd HD and RAID5-ing it from the start?


Thanks!

 Subject: Terminal Emulation probs in RH 8 via SSH
 
 I'm connecting to my fancy new Redhat 8 systems using Vandyke 
 SecureCRT 3.4.  I use Linux terminal emulation and vt100 font.
 
 
 Unfortunately many characters are printed all funky.  I get 
 weird extended characters where I should have things dashes
 and commas.  Line draw characters are even worse!
 This makes man pages very ugly.
 
 
 I've tried all sorts of different emulation and fonts, no 
 help.  Things work fine when I connect to other systems, such
 as solaris 8 and redhat 7.3.
 
 Here's my env:

[...] Deleted env stuff

 LANG=en_US.UTF-8

Try changing your env variable to LANG=POSIX

To implement globally, change LANG=POSIX in /etc/sysconfig/i18n

I went in and messed with my lan today when I ran
netstat while doing telnet from the machine that was
taking forever it showed the ips nameserver address 
instead of the machines address. I replaced resolv.conf
with an empty file then telneting out and ftping in worked
properly. Put the nameserver lines back in long delays.
That machine has to have the isp nameserver addresses in
resolv.conf and a default gw so it can use masquarading
to access the web through a firewall to pick up email.
The other machine does not need to access the web so
no nameserver lines in resolv.conf. I thought host.conf
and now I am learning nsswitch.conf insured that it would
look at hosts first, but it isn't working that way. 
How do I go about fixing this without losing the ability
to use the ISP nameserver to pickup mail?
  Thanks
  Linda

XF86Config.rpmnew -- What's this?

2002-11-14 Thread Nick Wilson
Hi all, 

I have major font/display problems though I do have a running system. I
noticed the XF86Config.rpmsave file in /etc/X11

Is this the 'new' version for RH8 and could my problems stem from my
system using the 'old' file?

If so, anyone offer some advice/links?

Many thanks

 OK. So I hvae figured out getting my MP3's to work.
 But I guess all good multimedia support was taken out?
 Anyhow, I can't seem to get MPEG video to play either
 (check out some game trailers). Any thoughts. I have
 exhausted my research capabilities and have seen few
 posts on this. I thought at first it was KDE but I
 have no luck under GNOME either. Thanks

Re: ftp works right if resolv.conf empty

Well, if you need your ISP's DSN IPs in there fine, there are usually just
2 IP addresses for them, and you are allowed 3 in the resolv.conf file, so
try adding in your IP address of that machine as the third address. You
can even try starting named on that machine, just to use as a caching
server, so you would not need to configure it, when you list that machine
IP address.  If you do that, I would then add that machine IP address
first in the list, and put your ISPs DNS addresses below that. If it
doesn't work out, you just kill the named service, and put things back to
where they were. I run my own DNS servers on my LAN, but do not use named,
but djbdns. I just have one address in my resolv.conf file, that of my DNS
server, thereby bypassing my ISP altogether (much faster).   Also, you can
add

domain yourdomain.com
search yourdomain.com

into the /etc/resolv.conf file also.  You did not mention if you had that. 

 The other machine does not need to access the web so
 no nameserver lines in resolv.conf. I thought host.conf
 and now I am learning nsswitch.conf insured that it would
 look at hosts first, but it isn't working that way.

As far as I know, if you list your files first in nsswitch it will come up
first.  You can't currently use DNS because you are not running your own
resolver, but you know that.  
 
 How do I go about fixing this without losing the ability
 to use the ISP nameserver to pickup mail?

See above.

This is the previous file. RPM does one of two things when it has to replace
an existing file:

- move the old file to file.rpmsave, and write the new one
- leave the old file alone, and write the new one to file.rpmnew

You can tell which from the different extensions.

In fact, there's a third mode. If the old file checksums to the same as
that in the current RPM package then RPM knows it's unchanged from stock,
and is free to replace it outright.

Cheers,

FW: adding users for ftp access

2002-11-14 Thread chris sherwood
Thanks to those who attempted to respond to my query earlier

server os is linux redhat 6.1 (not 100% positive on this I used a uname
command but all I get is linux for a response)
the ftp program is proftpd

umm now to reiterate my question and maybe state it in a fashion that will
elicit the response I need.

1.) I am completely new to the linux enviroment.
2.) I have no prior systems admin experience or training, just what I have
managed to muddle with.
3.) I am trying to add a user to the remote server we use.

now the problem is.

I can add the user using the command  adduser

however this doesnt grant that user ftp access.
now I realize that most linux newbies are probably rolling on the floor
laughing their asses off at me out there but I still need to do this.


I checked the passwd and shadow file in /etc/
and the userinfo is there however the user in the shadow file has the
password still unencrypted where as the rest of the users passwords are
encrypted.

I would really appreciate any help I recieve on this matter.
I have searched the groups on google and any other place I can think of but
seem to have run into a brick wall.

RE: adding users for ftp access

2002-11-14 Thread Rechenberg, Andrew

You can always get the Red Hat version by:

cat /etc/redhat-release

As far as ftp users, what happens when the user you create tries to
login via an FTP client?  Do they get a prompt to login?  Does their
login fail?  Can this user login normally (console and/or ssh, etc.)?
An error message or some screen output of a sample FTP session would
help.

Thanks,
Andy.

Adaptec 2100s RAID Diver not Loading

2002-11-14 Thread linuxusr
I am having a problem getting an Adaptec 2100S to show a RAID5 to RH 7.2.  I
have installed the appropriate dptapps and dpt_i2o RPMs with no 
apparent problem 

I still can no longer access to the RAID disk.  I was able to put an ext3
filesystem on it by installing from a regular RH 7.2 and the 
drive is accessible by Windows 2000. 

I noticed on boot (in my /var/log/messages file) these lines: 

Nov 14 15:03:47 master dpt: ^IAdaptec I2O driver is not loaded... daemons will
not be loaded

Nov 14 15:03:47 master rc: Starting dpt:  succeeded 

So part of this is loaded and ready... but why is the i2o driver not loading?


Thanks for any help!!

David
