Re: glibc 2.3 causing compile problems?
It has been standard practice with Red Hat as long as I have been using linux (MKLinux DR3 was my first distro - and that was Red Hat 5.1 except with the Mach 3 mikrokernel and ppc binaries) to create a package containing just the stuff the user needs to use the software (binary, config files, documentation) in one package - and to put the headers and stuff in a second package noted devel. This allows people who don't want to do development on their system to install far less number of packages and thus save space. A lot of people have no intention of compiling anything on their system, and it is common practice on web servers to not install a compiler so that a cracker can't compile any code on the machine should he get on. in these cases, where for whatever reason the user does not want to do any software compiling, the headers for things like bzip2 etc. really *don't* need to be installed. I agree with the Red Hat model of seperating out the headers. Back when I did some web dev on a little IBM Thinkpad with a small hard drive, I didn't *want* the extra space taken that installing headers would take. On Thu, 2002-11-28 at 16:15, Rikard Bostrom wrote: Hi, The reason the program didn't compile had something to do with bzip2. If I installed the rpm bzip2-development it worked like a charm... same thing if I downloaded the bzip2 source code and compiled that. I think it's stupid that the bzip2-development package wasn't installed in the first place, as I selected all the development packages in the install. But bzip2 isn't even listed there, so I had to install it manually. I really don't like RedHat's package tool in 8.0, is there an other tool out there I can use? /dahonk -- Michael A.

Re: System Requirements
Van: fred smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] Even 7.x, which may run on a 386 will be severely starved for resources on an 8-meg machine. Red Hat's installer likely won't have a chance of running on 8 megs, not even in text mode. You may wish to look up the rule project, they have an installer (I haven't tried it, so take this with salt) that may work for you, though. But even if you DO get 7.x installed on a 8 meg 386, you 'll find yourself thinking of the end of the world as you wait for anything to happen. Besides a slow CPU, it'll be swapping its little brains out. YOu won't even be able to do 'ls' in a text console without a swap storm. Unless you're a serious masochist, you'll want to skip installation of all GUI-related stuff and just use it as a text-mode unix clone. The machine only has to serve and to route. So no X window or whatever. I think I won't even use a monitor, just only work with Telnet. Problems with 5.2 is that no serious package - for example routing or webserver - will run on it because the lack of kernel support and glibc version. I want also use a i486 laptop with 12 megs of RAM, how can I ever be sure wich version will work on it? RedHat 5.2 works without performance problems and is fast enough, also with X server, but has lack of package support. So that's why I'm looking for a newer version, but before I'm going to download 1GB or buy CDs I need to be sure I have the right version. Does this 386 by any chance have 30-pin SIMM sockets in it? I've got a good-sized pile of 1-meg 30-pin simms around if you would like to have some more. All sockets are full unfortunatly... I've tried 4 meg simms but they just don't work. Maybe I buy a i486 with 24 megs of RAM tomorrow, but a pentium would be more usefull, because newest RH I just downloaded needs at least an i586. I'm already working on a Pentium 133 with 64 megs ram and worked without performence problems with redhat 5.2, but Win 2k is disastrous to work with. Problem is that it's my webserver and mailserver on W2K too and I can't stop these processes to swap the OS.

I choose for a 64MB swap drive, and I'm using a 2,1 GB HD. But I can't even get the APM module worked (for spuspend mode and battery check) because lack of kernel support. Of course this is a firewall only with sshd about the only service other than ipchains, soon to be iptables and will probably do the ipsec deal again that I had running under 6.2 on the same box.

Upgrading Kernel - Redhat 8
Hello, I've just installed Redhat 8 and in order to get my DSL USB modem working I have to upgrade the kernel, adding various patches. I'm aware that the i386 kernel is used during the install in order to supportmost hardware- but are the correct kernels for my processorinstalled after this? The 'KDE Control Center' -- 'Linux Kernel Configurator' says that my architecture is i386? I'm using a Duron 900Mhz so which kernel upgrades do I download from the website? i386, i586, i686, Athlon?? Only the source code for i386 is provided on the website. why? The following packages are installed on my system: $ rpm -qa | grep 'kernel' kernel-2.4.18-14 kernel-utils-2.4-8.13 kernel-pcmcia-cs-3.1.31-9 kernel-doc-2.4.18-14 kernel-source-2.4.18-14 kernel-debug-2.4.18-4 kernel-uml-2.4.18-14 Thanks, Dominic

I did comfortably pass both on the first try, but they were surprisingly difficult. I read somewhere that the failure rate was close to 60%, and I believe it. If you're just getting started with linux, you may want to give yourself some time before attempting this certification. There are quite a few people on this mailing list who have the RHCE certification, but I prefer LPI because of its lower cost and vendor neutrality. However, from what I understand the RHCE has nearly as high a failure rate as the LPI exams, so I'm sure it is difficult enough to be meaningful. Has anyone here written both the LPI and RHCE exams? If you just want a linux certification and don't care which one it is, then you may want to investigate CompTIA's Linux+. People rarely fail CompTIA exams, but for that reason they're not taken as seriously as some others. The RUTE users tutorial and exposition (rute.sf.net) also has everything you need to pass any of the above linux certifications. It's also freely downloadable, but I went with the O'Reilly book because it exactly follows the LPI exam and I could read it without having my computer on. I'm studying for the LPI Level 2 exams now, but as far as I know there are no published study guides for them. However, you can download the 201 and 202 exam objectives from lpi.org.

Re: problems setting up NT Mailserver inside linux firewall
Lisa, It sounds like possibly a name resolution problem. First let's nail down the mapping you did. Ports 25 and 110 should be mapped to the NT server (assuming you're offering pop and smtp. The NT server should have the firewall set as the default gateway (as should be on all internal boxes). I'm assuming the firewall is acting as the router for everything. Make sure that the DNS servers listed in the IP stack of the NT server are workable. I prefer to use external DNS servers as my lan is much too small for my own bind server. If you are running a local DNS server, then use your local DNS server as the primary and an external one as the secondary. You didn't specify if you are running Exchange. If so, do you have an SMTP gateway (they call it Internet Mail Connector) running? If you're running Exchange 2000, it sets up by default. If it's 5.5, you'll need to set it up. Give these a look and let us know.

Why No Christmas Promo?
Am headed out to purchase RH8 at CompUSA today and noticed that there is no sale promo. It seems odd that a company interested in enlarging its market share would not authorize retailers to give some sort of holiday discount, 10% off, $5. or $10. rebate or something. I want to be able to use the automated update feature, get the manuals, and to support Red Hat so I will buy a copy in any case.

Re: Why No Christmas Promo?
RedHat sells their software for the amount of money they feel it is worth, and how much they can afford to keep their operation going. I would assume that the reason they don't give discounts is because they are not like the hundreds of other software companies out there, who try to milk the most money out of their customers. If you would like to continue to support RedHat, do not buy it from a CompUSA, Best Buy, Staples, or any other software retail store. Instead, support RedHat directly, by buying it from them on their website. This supports RedHat, buy making sure that all of your money goes to them. Otherwise, part of the money you are spending is going to that retail store. Unless, of course, you want to support the retail store (which is not necessarily a bad thing).

ERROR: no acceptable cc in $Path (and more errors) Help!
Hello,
Ok First I am very new to the Linux world I just downloaded and
installed Red Hat 8.0 last week. And have had difficulty configuring the
entire system.
I've had trouble with my printer. And after Checking the HPIJS version I
figured I needed an update to that driver.
I downloaded to a convenient directory extracted and tried to run
./configure
what followed was a list of errors.
these are the errors
./configure
loading cache ./config.cache
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes
checking for working aclocal... missing
checking for working autoconf... missing
checking for working automake... missing
checking for working autoheader... missing
checking for working makeinfo... missing
checking for gcc... no
checking for cc... no
configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH
I have run into these errors with every program or driver etc. When I
have to compile to install. Whilst looking for a solution I found a site
that said to try running: CC=cc_name ./configure
this is the output of that.
CC=cc_name ./configure

checking whether the C compiler (cc_name ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler
cannot create executables.
These have happened in every downloaded program I have tried to install
and I have also tried these commands as root with the same results.
What do I need to do? Do I need to download GCC or do I need to start
first with installing a new autoconf etc. If so how do I do that?
PLease help this is very frustrating.

Re: System Requirements
Don't give up on the 386. There are several minimalist Linux web sites out there from which you can get some solid advice. Also, you don't have to stick with Red Hat. Look for an older slackware installation set that you can download to floppies. There are hundreds of different distributions out there - pick one thats right for your set up and prove the bigger is better synics wrong!

I believe the current requirement (but haven't confirmed it) is 64MB ram for text mode, and 128MB for graphical, with 192MB recommended for graphical. A Pentium or better is required. There is *no* safe version of Red Hat Linux that can be installed on a 386 with 8MB Ram. All versions that old have serious security holes. I believe your best bet at this stage is to replace the hardware with something manufactured in the last 5 years. Even a 5-year old system - which was typically a Pentium 200 or better - can be upgraded to 64MB Ram. I finally got rid of a 7-year old P166 with 48MB earlier this year for $20. A friend gave me a PentiumPro 200 with 64MB to give to another friend a few months ago. eBay has multiple systems that meet the requirements with a Buy-it-Now price of around $40-50 (which is around the price of a Red Hat Linux box set).

RE: Spamassassin help
Steve, I learned from the README in /usr/share/doc/spamassassin that a local user_prefs will override the global configuration in local.cf. Setting up the local.cf file did it for me, for whatever reason. Thanks! Brad It is my understanding that using spamd in the default configuration, the local.cf file overrides per user configuration for speed and efficiency. I believe there are ways to allow per user configuration with spamd (sql database, etc.), but I have not explored them. I do not know of a way to dynamically view the ruleset, but it may be possible (search for perldoc references in documentation). The standard rule set is listed on their web site at http://www.spamassassin.org/tests.html, but this is probably not what you are looking for. Steve -Original Message- Thanks Steve, I'll give that a try! Will the existence of a ~/mail/.spamassassin/user_prefs file override the /etc/mail/local.cf directives?

Re: Why No Christmas Promo?
At least you are buying it from CompUSA ... if it was Staples or Best Buy, I would criticize supporting them.

As for the marketing side a company often will accept a lower-than -desired profit in order to build the user base ... such is a common strategy. Given Microsoft's increasingly negative standing and high prices together with the desire of consumers to save money this would seem an opportune moment. I was able to explain what Red Hat is to the clerk who was quite excited and intended to buy a copy and try it out ... an opportunity I would not have had if I had purchased it online ... and absent the product on store shelves Red Hat is all but invisible to potential customers (BestBuy and CircuitCity appear to no longer stock Linux, never looked at Staples).

Re: backing up - RAID or tape drive?
If you can afford it, go for a tape drive. External Media is always a great thing to have, as it is just that, external. RAID does not protect against a clumsy co-worker who mistakingly deletes that key database, or all that person's important files, etc., etc. It also most definitely does not provide protection against the elements (fire, water, etc.). Just my two cents, but if you are going to go with one, go with the tape drive. Also, make sure that the backups are stored in a REMOTE location. Tape disks that are sitting on top of the server, or in a room off of the server will not provide any use if the elements decide to knock on your door. -Jon On Fri, 2002-11-29 at 23:29, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello All I appreciate that this is not quite the place to ask this question but if some of you out there would be willing to spend some time answering this question I would be very grateful.
