PHP rpmnew .ini
I just noticed that I have a /etc/php.ini.rpmnew file on my system. I assume this was created when I last upgraded PHP, which would have been whenever the most recent up2date php version was released. I ran a quick diff on /etc/php.ini and /etc/php.ini.rpmnew and the following was produced: [root@gandalf root]# diff /etc/php.ini /etc/php.ini.rpmnew 71c71 short_open_tag = On --- short_open_tag = Off 345a346 include_path = .:/usr/share/pear 441d441 ;extension=php_dbg.dll 455c455 extension=imap.so --- ;extension=php_imap.dll 466d465 extension=mysql.so 847,851d845 [debugger] debugger.enabled = true deubgger.JIT_host = clienthost debugger.JIT_port = 7869 The first difference, short_open_tag, is self-explanatory, though I don't know why RedHat would turn this option off. The second is the creation of a new include_path to include /usr/share/pear. Do I need this path in include_path? The next two differences have to do with the removal of imap.so and mysql.so from the extensions. Since I have both php-imap and php-mysql intalled, I assume I should leave this alone, and since php.ini.rpmnew doesn't have either of these two lines, even commented out, I can only assume that the RPM's for php-imap and php-mysql create them. What about the [debugger] section? Should I remove that from php.ini? BTW, am I the only one who isn't a big fan on the .rpmnew method of doing things? I am all for not overwriting current config files, but couldn't this potentially prevent important configuration options from being loaded? And all without the user knowing they weren't being loaded (privilege separation on SSH comes immediately to mind). ahp PGP.sig Description: PGP signature

Thank you for solving simple TeX problem
Dear Mr. Byers, Saltzman and Pasquale: All of you offered me invaluable advice on how to solve my problem of not being able to print a TeX file. Mr. Byers explained to me how things should work. Both Messrs. Saltzman and Pasquale pointed out that I needed to install dvips and pointed me in the right direction to do so. I ended up using RPM to install the program from my cdroms. I am new to Linux and I predictably took the path of least resistance. I shall get into installing updates from the web soon. You all were exceptionally helpful.

RE: PHP not working
Well, there are a couple of problems. The site I'm trying to set-up php on is a home system. It has no qualified domain name. Second, my website, palmettoshopper.com is a hosted site. When I put in my site, it did not return anything. Hagen Hosting is supposed to be offering php. They are running RH 7.3 servers. I want to set-up this system at home so I can play/experiment/test before uploading to the server. I was thinking of adding vbulletin to my site which is a php-mysql based software. I want to set it up here, make a few config changes and upload it to the server. Thanks if you go to this link http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/graph and put your website into the box on the top left and submit does it returning anything about php ?

RE: PHP doesn't work (really)
I'm glad to hear someone else is having some problems -- just kidding! I was a RH user for many years but have been out of it since 6.2 (I think).

Very rarely do I do this but usually if you want to refresh the menu which is connected to the panel I go to Actions -- Run Program and type in killall gnome-panel and that does it. Due to a very contorted issue with cross-compatibility with KDE menus and a host of other issues Gnome in RH8 shipped without menu editing enabled. I hate this. If this is a single user desktop box, I would suggest doing this. chmod -R o-w ~/.gnome2/vfolders chmod -R o-w ~/.gnome2/panel.d This is saying to the system that anybody can write to those folders so anybody can customize the menu. This is not the same as in other more stock versions of Gnome where each user can customize the menu and their entries only impact their own desktop. This means that user A can screw up user B's custom settings so that is why I suggest it only for a single-user desktop machine. That being said how do you edit them? Click Start-Here go into Applications and right click and you will an option Create Launcher. You can also right click on entries and edit them. 3.

PHP doesn't work (solved -- sorta)
Well, I've figured out why PHP doesn't work, and in doing so tied in my other post about php.ini. RedHat, for reasons I don't quite understand, have decided to change the value of short_open_tag to Off. It is on by default on 7.3, but the value is changed to Off in the php update. It doesn't take effect, however (read my php.ini post), because the setting is saved into /etc/php.ini.rpmnew instead of /etc/php.ini. On 8.0, though, the setting is Off in the base install. Changing the page to: ?php phpinfo(); ? from: ? phpinfo(); ? causes the page to execute properly. Having this set to Off will of course break a ton of PHP software because most PHP developers use the short form of the tag opening. This leads to my question: Why did RedHat feel the need to change this setting? Was it done deliberately or was it an oversight? Was it indeed done by RedHat, or is this a change propagated from the default php.ini released with PHP? I know there are RedHat developers on this list, and I would like to hear their answers to these questions, since this has caused me, and many others, quite a few headaches. ahp PGP.sig Description: PGP signature

Re: HOWTO : permit a user to execute a shell (root is owner) and restric the read
Partly true. You need to be able to read the file, but, you can hide it. I've used this trick before. Make a directory (for example: /usr/local/secure/bin ) Set the permissions of it to 711. Put the script in there, with permissions set to 755. Then, put a wrapper script in /usr/local/bin, that runs that script. So it looks like: ls -la /usr/local/secure: drwx--x--x2 root root 4096 Jan 7 10:13 bin ls -la /usr/local/secure/bin /usr/local/secure/bin/hello has permissions 755 to allow execution. You still cannot read it, because users have no read access. hello looks like: #!/bin/bash # echo Hello World Then in /usr/local/bin run.hello looks like: #!/bin/bash # /usr/local/secure/bin/hello running run.hello caused hello to be run, but the users cannot access, or read hello. Hope that helps! Ric NOTE: I have not endlessly beat this up for holes. But I've used it in the past successfully. Proceed with caution - YMMV Adam H.

Re: PHP doesn't work (solved -- sorta)
RedHat has fixed this problem by changing the setting of short_open_tag back to On in the Phoebe beta release, which means that 8.1 will include this fix. For current users, however, this change will have to be done manually, or at least until another PHP package is released (which may not be _too_ far away considering the release of 4.3.0). ahp On Tuesday, January 7, 2003, at 11:24 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Tue, 7 Jan 2003, Adam H. Pendleton wrote: Well, I've figured out why PHP doesn't work, and in doing so tied in my other post about php.ini. RedHat, for reasons I don't quite understand, have decided to change the value of short_open_tag to Off. It is on by default on 7.3, but the value is changed to Off in the php update. It doesn't take effect, however (read my php.ini post), because the setting is saved into /etc/php.ini.rpmnew instead of /etc/php.ini. On 8.0, though, the setting is Off in the base install. Changing the page to: ?php phpinfo(); ? from: ? phpinfo(); ? causes the page to execute properly. Having this set to Off will of course break a ton of PHP software because most PHP developers use the short form of the tag opening. This leads to my question: Why did RedHat feel the need to change this setting? Was it done deliberately or was it an oversight? Was it indeed done by RedHat, or is this a change propagated from the default php.ini released with PHP? I know there are RedHat developers on this list, and I would like to hear their answers to these questions, since this has caused me, and many others, quite a few headaches. This setting is purposily changed from the default by Red Hat in a patch file called php-4.2.1-php.ini-dist.patch The SPEC ChangeLog does not explain why the change was made. The best explaination I could find is in RH Bugzilla entry #72700 where the package builder, Phil Copeland, explains strictly speaking your scripts should open/close with ?php ... ? I went searching through Bugzilla to see if anyone reported short_tag support causing problems and couldn't find any such report. If your not satisified with the existing explaination then you may want to re-open the #72700 call asking for more details. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list PGP.sig Description: PGP signature

It offers only a subset of Squid's control abilities, but may be easier to set up if you don't need too much and you won't change settings that often.
