I agree with your final statement, Michael - if this were common, we
would have heard about it by now. Seems to be user error somehow. Since
this occurs on different boxes and with both 7.3 and 8.0 versions, that
would tend to rule out different gcc versions being the problem. An easy
test for RH kernels being the culprit would be to see if you could
compile a minaline kernel. I can't see this being the root problem,
though, knowing the usual solidness of RH kernels. I would
check to make sure you have the proper glibc-kernheader rpms installed.

Unable to build a custom kernel since 2.4.18-5

[Michael H. Warfield]

Hello all,

Bad day...  Bad week, and more...  Last several kernel updates
from RedHat have been impossible to use to build custom kernel builds.

I swear I must be doing something fundamental wrong but a proceedure
I've been using to build custom kernels from the RedHat kernel source
rpm just isn't working any more (and a backup proceedure is even worse).

I need a custom kernel to add some options and add some drivers
(usbvision for one - mods to a kernel driver I MAINTAIN for another).  The
proceedure I HAVE been using is to install the kernel "source" RPM from the
install CD's and then gone to /usr/src/linux-2.4 and copied the appropriate
configs/kernel{whatever} to .config and then "make oldconfig ; make deps
clean bzImage ; make modules" etc...  Worked like a charm under 2.4.18-5
and earlier.  Then I would reboot to that "custom" kernel (which really
shouldn't be custom but it makes the version strings match) make my
modifications to the kernel sources (changes to SCSI parameters and/or add
drivers) and rebuild...

Ever after 2.4.18-5, the "make dep clean bzImage" works like a charm
but the "make modules" catches fire and burns to high hell.  First I
thought it was just the stupid CIPE module that RedHat has been adding
in (since it's the first module to blow chunks).  But disabling that
module just causes the blowup to be in the next module.  The errors are
bizzare.  Things like "non-numeric character in number but not hex" and
stuff.  It LOOKS like there is some totally wacked out header, but I
haven't been able to track it down.

Here is what I get from "make modules" trying the stock RedHat
(there's a $#@$%@# oxymoron for you) kernel sources and one of their
unmodified configuration files (configs/kernel-2.4.18-i386.config):

USB mouse problem

[fred smith]

Gang:

My USB mouse has been working perfectly for months.

But recently, since I've begun messing with the "cube" game, it has
died twice while playing the game. Playing along and all of a sudden
the mouse no longer works. Looking in /var/log/messages one sees this:


Dec 24 17:20:28 fcshome kernel: hub.c: already running port 2 disabled by hub (EMI?), 
re-enabling...

Dec 24 17:20:41 fcshome /etc/hotplug/usb.agent: ... no drivers for USB product 
45e/40/300


So far the only solution I've found is a reboot (and you know how I
hate to do that). Anybody got a clue?

BTW, this is RH7.2 fully updated except for the kernel. I can't run the
later errata kernels because my promise Ultra-66 doesn't work with them,
so I'm running the 2.4.9-34 errata kernel.

You simply open up /etc/fstab in a text editor (vi, pico...whatever), add 
an appropriate entry for the each drive, save, and voila!!!

FWIW, here is an example:

/dev/cdrw   /mnt/cdrw   iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0
/dev/cdrom  /mnt/cdrom  iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0

This takes into account symlinks in /dev, like so:

lrwxr-xr-x1 root root8 Oct 29 00:00 /dev/cdrom -> /dev/hdd
lrwxrwxr-x1 root root9 Jan 14  2002 /dev/cdrw -> /dev/hdc

Since you've got the CDR as the secondary master, and the CDROM as the 
secondary slave, secondary master is usually referred to, by the system, 
as /dev/hdc, and the slave as /dev/hdd (just like your primary master and 
slave are /dev/hda and /dev/hdb, respectively).

If you want, in the /etc/fstab example above, you could just have /dev/hdc 
and /dev/hdd in place of /dev/cdrw and /dev/cdrom.

Disk space is cheap. 500MB isn't as much as it used to be in terms of
percentage of a typical IDE disk.

I would avoid altering the workings of things like logrotate. It makes
things more complicated than necessary.

CDROM CDR and Floppy all messed up

[Thomas A. Hulslander]

I built this PC a week ago and installed Red Hat 8. All was well except
for the floppy drive which I didn't care too much about to begin with.

Yesterday I installed a CDR and the instructions said that it had to be
in the Secondary channel with the CD-ROM as its slave. That's when I
realized that I had set up the HD originally in the secondary channel.

I moved HD to primary channel and installed CDR in secondary with CD-ROM
as its slave.

Now I cannot access CD-ROM or CDR. When I try I am getting message that
they do not exist in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab. If the answer is adding
these entries into fstab and mtab, how in the world do I do that?

I do have webmin installed if it helps to resolve this issue.

I have read all morning and am finding no answers.

I thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

You have a few choices. For this situation I'd suggest running the job
_after_ the logrotate, and just use the rotated log as input data instead
of the main log.  This is arguably cleaner anyway, because squid won't
be writing to a log you're trying to process.

Printing Confusion redux...

[Chris K.]

I sent this message to the list earlier, but haven't heard "boo".  I had 
just signed on to the list, so I'm guessing that it didn't get through 
somehow. anyway, here's the question again...  I'm sure it's something 
simple that I'm missing, but I'm too close to the problem to see it.  FI 
someone can give me a couple of new thiings to try, I'd appreciate it.

Okay, here's the scenario, and you folks tell me what I'm missing:

We had been running RH 7.3 on all our systems, including the one that 
provides print service and firewall.  The HD on the print/firewall unit 
bit it, so I took the opportunity to install 8.0 on the new HD.  

Install went fine,  SAMBA works great, including printing (my wife has 
to use Windows for certain applications), firewall/IPMasq is running 
just great.  I can access the directories that are exported by the server
fine (with the exception of the occaisional mis-set permission).

However, I can't print from my Linux workstation on the printer atttached
to the server.
Here's the pertinent factors:
Workstation  IP:  192.168.5.2
Server IP:  192.168.5.1

I can ping and Telnet the server from my workstation, no problem.  I can 
mount an NFS share located on the server from my workstation.

/etc/hosts.lpd on the Server reads:
192.168.5.2
192.168.5.3

/etc/hosts on the server reads
127.0.0.1localhost.localdomainlocalhost
192.168.5.2
192.168.5.3

The print configuration on the workstation is using the correct IP 
addresses and queue name.

By everything I can find, this _should_ work, but it doesn't.  Any 
suggestions?

Chris K.

Rick, the nvidia drivers worked for me both with the 18-18.8.0, and the
18-19.8.0 ( I am using the 3123 drivers).  I used the .src.rpm
versions.  Not sure what you mean by --rebuild them.  I just initially
install the .src.rpm (rpm -i ***_***_.src.rpm), then change
directory to /usr/src/redhat/SPECS where the src files are installed,
then rpmbuild -bb NVIDIA*.  Then all I do is change to the directory
/usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386 where the rpmbuild process has put the
packages, and do rpm -Uvh NVIDIA*.  The wildcards work in both the above
commands.  Then I just modify the XF86Config file to have driver =
"nvidia" and make sure the entry Load "glx" is in the module section,
and there is no line in modules section containing Load "dri" or
"Glcore".  After that all works.

Re: new kernel

[greg]

You're right Matthew, no wildcard usage.  But I did it all, and all
works well.  Just uninstalled the NVIDIA GLX and NVIDIA kernel rpms,
which put back some files that the NVIDIA rpms moved on install,
re-booted the computer into the new kernel, and it didn't want to load
the gui due to the XF86Config file being modified for the NVIDIA
drivers.  No matter.  Just built the rpms like I did last time, and
re-booted, and all works beautifully.  

thanks.  Sorry for the questions, but all this is new to me, and I hate
the idea of making my system possibly corrupt by doing something wrong. 
All is good.

Is there a problem with the packaging for these that requires the
removal and install rather than simply update?  I don't think I have
ever had remove packages and then install.

Good idea Tim.  Matthew can just point it to his university servers, which
work just fine.  All he has to do is put his ns.university.server in his
/etc/resolv.conf  and it will work well.  This can also be done using a
local caching server too without changing anything.

That's certainly worth trying.  I replaced the NIC that was connected to my

Re: Best caching nameserver?

[Tim Kehres]

Matthew,

Just curious - why can't you identify a couple (2 or 3) well known and
publically accessible name servers (there are many that fit this
description), and then just point your resolver to them?  While running a
local caching server is fine and well, you'll still have to point that to
something on the Internet to resolve non-cached data, so you're back to
square one anyway.

Yah, it's terrific isn't it.

No, no ... tinydns does not cache anything. It is a content server,
publishing DNS content to the world.. Dnscache is a caching proxy server,
never listing deligations like tinydns, and can be used either as a
forwarding or resolving proxy server, depending on your needs.  They are
separate programs, and not like BIND which has both together... In fact,
dnscache and tinydns run on separate IP addresses within a single
computer.  I do this by aliasing tinydns another 192.168.x.x. address off
of eth0.  Using dnscache alone, for one machine, workstation, can just run
on 127.0.0.x. 

you do not have to use both together, and many people just use dnscache,
even on one workstation, just to speed up their web experience. 

For an in-depth understanding of the difference, please see

http://homepages.tesco.net./~J.deBoynePollard/FGA/dns-server-roles.html#Content

and for an overall big picture of djbdns,

Jack Byers [EMAIL PROTECTED]

you need a 2nd stanza in lilo.conf
modify it something like so:

modify for 7.0 and 8.0
let linux be label for 7.0
let linux8.0 be label for 8.0


 boot=/dev/hda

I've been using dnscache on my Linux workstation, and I can certainly vouch for it's 
speed. :)

One thing that confuses me though, is whether tinydns uses the same cache that 
dnscache uses.  Do I have to use dnscache along with tinydns?

is there no better solution?


Can you do partial data collection on a more frequent basis? Perhaps
weekly? That way your processing time should be drastically reduced.


i already do that actualy :) i do daily reports, separate weekly and 
separate monthly reports :)


Ok. Another solution we use for our bigger servers is to have the log
files shipped off server periodicaly. then all processing happens in
this offline location, where logfile rotation is not an issue. This has
the added benefit of lightening the load on the servers.


Yep... but thats not the case in my situation.. i just want daily weekly 
and monthly reports (including the squidGuard logs) without conflicting 
the logfile rotation process... but with still remaining the date 
integrity of the generated reports (don't miss some says due to a

Matthew,

In my opinion, after looking and using a few, there is only one, and that
is dnscache, which can be installed alone.  It is part of the djbdns
programs.  It is fast, lightweight, totally secure, far better than BIND,
which is monolithic in terms of having both DNS and Cache together. You
will not be sorry. I will never go back to BIND for content or caching
servers. If you use a content server, tinydns is faster (over 5000 queries
per second), more secure also, *much easier* to set up, etc.

The former yes. The latter had to be built via .src.rpm with:

rpmbuild --rebuild 

in order to work with 2.4.18-19.8.0.

For me it's easiest to rebuild the package based on the .src.rpm so you
don't need to wait for NVidia to catch up w/ Red Hat's kernel releases.

What version of Red Hat?

On 7.3 and 8.0, I've had no problems building Net::SSLeay through CPAN with
Red Hat's OpenSSL libraries. 8.0 failed to build until Net::SSLeay 1.21 was
released due to the perl version, but now that's a non-issue.

The FAQ you listed is correct - though you can essentially install your
latest OpenSSL package, and then rebuild the RPM's to link to the newer
OpenSSL libraries. That or roll those packages yourself from .tar.gz.

Some packages that come to mind that are affected are (that I've had to
rebuild in the past after updating OpenSSL):

OpenSSH
Apache (mod_ssl)
PHP
Sendmail

Best caching nameserver?

[Matthew Saltzman]

I recently stopped by Laptop Lane to do some work during an airport delay,
and I discovered to my surprise and disappointment that their network does
not supply name service.  Since my usual name servers are all behind
firewalls, I had a bit of trouble actually getting anything done.  I
learned from that experience that real road warriors carry their own name
servers on thier laptops.

I was thinking of installing the caching name server RPM, but it runs off
of bind.  So I thought I'd ask if there was some other configuration or
name server daemon that would be more appropriate for this application,
i.e., lighter-weight, more secure, etc. (I'm running RH8.0., but I thought
the answer might be of more general interest.)

TIA.

Setting the clock back wreaks some havoc with XFree86.  There is a fix in
the works which you can test by installing the appropriate XFree86 RPMs
from people.redhat.com/mharris/testing.  See Bugzilla #63509.

Before you decid if it's a bug, check to make sure that your time zone is
set correctly, and that the UTC setting in /etc/sysconfig/clock matches
the way you actually have your hardware clock set.  Note that if you don't
run certain *other* OS's with brain-damaged clock managers, the best bet
is to set your hwclock to UTC.  That way changes between daylight and
standard time can't bite you.

Also, check /etc/sysconfig/ampd and play with the CLOCK_SYNC setting.

Ah, yes, one of those *other* OS's.

Re: openSSH question

[cblamer2003]

well basically i was trying to install a perl module (Net::SSLeay) to use 
with webmin. it wont compile it because the installed version of ssl isnt a 
recent enough version. 

so i went to the openssl page and found the following in their FAQ.

-8. What is special about OpenSSL on Redhat?
-Red Hat Linux (release 7.0 and later) include a preinstalled limited 
-version of OpenSSL. For patent reasons, support for IDEA, RC5 
-and MDC2 is disabled in this version. The same may apply to other 
-Linux distributions. Users may therefore wish to install more or all of 
-the features left out. 
-
-To do this you MUST ensure that you do not overwrite the openssl that 
-is in /usr/bin on your Red Hat machine. Several packages depend on 
-this file, including sendmail and ssh. /usr/local/bin is a good 
-alternative choice. The libraries that come with Red Hat 7.0 onwards 
-have different names and so are not affected. (eg For Red Hat 7.2 
-they are /lib/libssl.so.0.9.6b and /lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6b 
-with symlinks /lib/libssl.so.2 and /lib/libcrypto.so.2 respectively). 
-
-Please note that we have been advised by Red Hat attempting to recompile 
-the openssl rpm with all the cryptography enabled will not work. All 
-other packages depend on the original Red Hat supplied openssl package. 
-It is also worth noting that due to the way Red Hat supplies its 
-packages, updates to openssl on each distribution never change the 
-package version, only the build number. For example, on Red Hat 7.1, 
-the latest openssl package has version number 0.9.6 and build number 9 
-even though it contains all the relevant updates in packages up to 
-and including 0.9.6b. 
-
-A possible way around this is to persuade Red Hat to produce a 
-non-US version of Red Hat Linux. 
-
so basically i was hoping that there was some kinda work around. or anything 
that i can doi sure hope

thanks for any help

Actually, I never tried the wildcard, but I don't think so.  "rpm -e
NVIDIA_kernel NVIDIA_GLX" should work.  I'm pretty sure you can rpm -U the
kernel, but the GLX one needs to be rpm -e.  It moves some installed
files out of the way, and if you update, it will overwrite the ones it
backed up.

OK.  Well it seems that I have problems with Tiff files, and maybe the jpg 
files were actually tiff productions??  

Along with not being able to see jpeg or jpg or tiff files I see pop up 
messages that I need Java installed.  I guess that is part of what needs to 
be added??

Am I on the right track now?RH8.0 simply needs a little graphic support to 
make it work like other systems??

Why install the tarball?  Grab the latest rpm from Red Hat for your
release and install it.

It won't break anything else.  rpm will also help you - if there are any
dependencies with other packages, it will tell you.  In this case, there
are no other dependencies you need to worry about.

Why would OpenSSH break anything with apache or openssl? They are not
related at all. Or is there a type in the subject and you want to
install the newest openssl?

Does the single new package contain an appropriate "Obsoletes:" line
for samba-common and the other Samba sub-packages from Red Hat?

Re: Clock problem on RedHat 8

[Roger Schmeits]

For some odd ball reason unknown to me redhat does like the clock
sometimes. Using the 'hwclock' command I have had to either sync the
bios clock to the o/s.

hwclock --hctosys

This sets hardware clcok to the system clock.

Might also want to look in the /etc/sysconfig directory for clock
settings. There you set timezone, UTC settings (mine is set for true)
and also ARC (???).

ZONE="America/Chicago"
UTC=true
ARC=false

quick question, is there a way i can install the newest openssh tarball, 
without messing up anything.

i read somewhere that installing it will break just about everything in 
readhat, openssl, apache(ssl plugin maybe), and other stuff. Id like to 
upgrade if possible.

Thanks for any help.

You need to uninstall samba-common and install the new samba-common. You
may also have to do the same with samba-client.

You do not have removed the previous version completely.
The samba-common package is left and conflicts with your new package.

Re: nforce2 and agpgart

[jesse jacobs]

Good morning,
2 days ago I set up a nforce2 comp using the nvagp driver(integrated video)
I have not setup the generic /dev/agpgart for this board.  Have u had any
problems locating the audio/nv nic...etc?  have u used the modules from
nvidia?  ie. the nforce_linux modules?

The dmesg shows that the bus isn't traced along to your agp interface.
Lookin through the CVS and the agp and audio support has been added to the
nv driver as of 1.187

you'll have to check it out good luck.

i'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but if you are talking

Installing BIND

[Periyasamy, Raj]

Title: Installing BIND






I am running Redhat 7.2. I installed bind using up2date -uv. However, after the installation was done, I did not see named.conf, named.ca and named.local files. Is this normal, is it because I used up2date instead of rpm ?

Re: Fetchmail, Sendmail and multiple usernames

[Tim Kehres]

Hello,

How many mailboxes do you have with the ISP?   In other words - is mail for
each user account described being delivered to a DIFFERENT mailbox on the
ISP, or are they all being delivered to a single mailbox?   For this to work
properly, each user should have mail delivered to unique mailboxes on the
ISP side.

Fetchmail, Sendmail and multiple usernames

[Awuku Danso]

Hi all
I want to configure fetchmail to POP mail for all my users from my ISP to my local 
mail server running sendmail. At the moment it fetches the mail and delivers  
everything to one user but what I really want is for each user's mail to be delivered 
to their mailbox on the mail server. For example mail fetched from the ISP as 

[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

is all dumped into the mailbox of user2 on the local mail server on my internal 
server. BUt what I really want is mail fetched as
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be deliverd to user1 on my local mail server, and that for 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] to user 2 and so on.

I only have one account with the ISP but can have as many usernames as I want for mail 
as long as the part after the @ symbol is not changed.

Any ideas how I can do this?

Awuku

I also use sarg. I found the daily, weekly and monthly scripts that came
with it quite defficient, so I wrote my own scripts to do the same job.
None of the scripts are over 1Kb. in size. If there is interest, I can
post them to the list.

Exactly.

while [ -f  ]; do
  sleep 300
done

Would check every 5 minutes.

Ok. Another solution we use for our bigger servers is to have the log
files shipped off server periodicaly. then all processing happens in
this offline location, where logfile rotation is not an issue. This has
the added benefit of lightening the load on the servers.

I would rather have logrotate sleep until the lock goes away. That way
you jusr delay log rotation instead of making it go away completely.


what do you mean with sleep ? something like a do while loop checking if 
the file still exists...??

is there no better solution?

Can you do partial data collection on a more frequent basis? Perhaps
weekly? That way your processing time should be drastically reduced.


i already do that actualy :) i do daily reports, separate weekly and

Not that tough. I have my squid log files rotate on a weekly basis with

Should work, but you would have to alter the logrotate script to use the
locking mechanism.

Re: Lexmark Z11 printer (fred smith)

[Michael Wu]

I haven't tried on RH8.0, but I have referred the following documents to 
install a Lexmark Z11 printer on "RH 7.0 + CLE v1.0".

http://f23.parsimony.net/forum51677/messages/288.htm

http://som_som.tripod.com/extref/cZ11.html

Although I cannot obtain multi-page printout and the master-filter used

coloured test page successfully. Besides, it needs some trick to install 
another pinter.

Hope that helps.

Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Gentlepersons:

We've got a Lexmark Z11 printer here (I know, it's a "worthless 
windoze-only printer") that I'm trying to make work on Linux (RH8.0).

There IS a driver (3, in fact) listed for it on linuxprinting.org,
but I cannot for the life of me get it working.

The installation and setup instructions are simple enough, but somehow
I have the nagging feeling that they're not telling me everything I
need to know, or maybe they are assuming I'm smarter than I am :^(.

Anyhow, depending on which config/setup options I choose, I ether
get NO output (with the job stagnating in the queue, eventually
timed out and purged), or I get a page with squiggly lines on it.

Has anyone here had any luck with the "lz11" (or the cz11 variants)
listed on linuxprinting.org and a Z11 printer?

TIA

lilo configuration for dual boot

[nlimbu]

I have installed RH 8.0 and then RH 7.0 in next partitions as below:
/dev/hda1 - / for RH 8.0
/dev/hda5 - /usr for RH 8.0
/dev/hda6 - /var for RH 8.0
/dev/hda7 - /swap for RH 8.0

/dev/hda2 - / for RH 7.0
/dev/hda8 - /usr for RH 7.0
/dev/hda9 - /var for RH 7.0
/dev/hda10 - /swap for RH 7.0

During installation, I found RH 7.0 installed LILO in MBR and then when I rebooted I 
got only the option of RH 7.0.

Now how can I point RH 8.0 in lilo.conf so that I get the option of both RH 7 and 8.

My current setting of lilo.conf is as follows:

boot=/dev/hda
map=/boot/map
install=/boot/boot.b
prompt
timeout=50
message=/boot/message
linear
default=linux

image=/boot/bzImage
label=linux
initrd=/bood/initrd-2.2.16.-22.img
read-only
root=/dev/hda2

Please help!


With Regards
Nabin Limbu

That runs the command when the machine is booted,. not when a user logs
in.

Clock problem on RedHat 8

[Julien Olivier]

Hi

I have a weird problem with Red Hat 8 on my Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo D
laptop.

I live in France so I sat up the clock to use Paris timezone. At first,
it worked well but after a few days, I restarted my computer and saw
that the time was 1 hour under the correct one. So I tried to set it
back by right clicking on the clock applet in GNOME and choosing adjust
time and date. I changed the time and closed the config tool.

After a few seconds, the time was corrected but I couldn't drag windows
anymore ! I could click on anything but couldn't _move_ anything... I
have an ATI Radeon Mobility on this laptop (without DRI). I restarted
XFree and I could move windows again.

After a reboot, I noticed the clock was badly configured again. I
restarted the laptop and went to BIOS where I re-configured the time
correctly. This time, the clok was correct in RedHat. But after about 2
weeks, the problem happened again (1-hour-early time and XFree bug after
re-configuring time). I've been running RedHat 8 for months now and I
always have to re-configure my clock in the BIOS from time to time.

I read somthing on google about someone having a problem with RTC on his
laptop when his laptop gets idled... I don't know if my problem is
related to it though.

NB: I have used Windows on this laptop too and the clock worked great
before I installed RedHat.

Thanks by advance.

RE: HELP!!!! /bin/mail

[aljuhani]

/bin/mail is a binary file.  If you have your OS RPMs run the following 
command:

rpm -Fvh

This command if applied to all RPM stored in a directory or on OS CD, It will 
update ONLY the installed RPMs and will not change any system configs or file 
structures you have.

The "echo" command is used to insert a comment/data to a file, so you have 
insterted somewhere in the mail binary file that line.

Good Practice is to always safe your binary files to a floppy.  It might be 
needed also if someone breaks into your box and attach some rootkit to one of 
your binaries to spy on your activities and passwords.

Some tools that help in checking binary files integerity is chkrootkit 
(http://www.chkrootkit.org) or by using MD5 checksums to comapre with 
originals.

To install chkrootkit, here is how:

1. First make a directory for chkrootkit:

cd /home
mkdir tools
cd tools

I think the latest version is 0.38

wget ftp://ftp.pangeia.com.br/pub/seg/pac/chkrootkit.tar.gz
tar -zxvf chkrootkit.tar.gz

cd chkrootkit-0.38/

make sense

-

Now you have chkrootkit installed under /home/tools/chkrookit-0.38
To run just type at shell prompt
./chkrootkit

It is better to make a cron job that runs ckrootkit and sends you by email the 
results.

Regards,

Al-Juhani
