 Nevermind mind my whining.  I should be shot.  I have to click the little white

Re: cable modem

[James Ko]

I have both an ethernet cable and a usb cable that i can use.
i think my problem was that i did not install the proper software to allow me to use my cable modem. there were options to install for the dhcp, dns, etc. However,
it wouldn't let me install this software, because it said i needed a disc called "Psyche 8.0, disk 1".  Any ideas anyone?

P4 Hyper Threading

[Rick Fincher]

I have a Linux 8.0 system with the smp kernel with 
all the updates.  It is running with an Intel P4 3.06 GHz processor with a 
hyper thread compatible bios and chipset (Intel D845PEBT2 motherboard).  I 
have ht enabled in the BIOS.
 
From what I have read, I should see two cpu's in 
/proc/cpuinfo, but I am only seeing one.
 
What do I need to do to enable hyper 
threading?

System Monitor accuracy

[shawn]

Is it just me or is the System Monitor unreliable.

It shows my cpu at 100% locked there and my system is responding slowly
but viewing it bye the process listing (all, my and/or active) gives me
nothing using the cpu other than the system monitor and netscape at like
1%).  

Under windows at least I could find and shut the culprit down.  It may
well have to do with the ide I'm using to write some java stuff or a web
app that I'm working on but I hate to just have to kill everything
blindly hoping to get working again.

Ok after a long time my ide threw a out of memory error and died. Which leaves me with
it frozen (just that program is) on the screen.  The System monitor seems not to 
include
that so I really don't know how to kill it and restart it without a reboot.

Any suggestions for making my processes more identifiable.  Is this just a RH8.0 x 
windows thing
or is linux always like this I wonder.  It seems from the list and my experience that 
x is a little unstable under RH8.

AFAIK, that's correct. Apache passes everything over to the "handlers" when it 
isn't supposed to do it itself. So since it knows it is the handler for HTML, 
it sets the methods it accepts for it.

If mod_proxy is installed/configured then it should grab all the CONNECT 
requests.

But since Apache sees the PHP file, it just passes the request in whole over 
to PHP and lets PHP sort it out.

PHP accepts all methods (even ones that don't exist) and ignores the ones it 
can't use. For example...

[brian@hell brian]$ telnet www.dee-web.com 80
Trying 206.105.178.65...
Connected to www.dee-web.com.

Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2003 04:45:06 GMT
Server: Apache
X-Powered-By: PHP/4.1.2
Connection: close
Content-Type: text/html





Is this bad or good? I'm not in a position to say. I guess I'll say it's bad 
when someone rips a gaping hole through it. I also believe that there are 
other apache modules that exhibit similar behaviour. Though I have to admit 
that arbitrary methods is a little disturbing.

Well, the parallel is that the request of (as referred to by the previous logs 
regarding the proxy abuse check)...

CONNECT www.host.name:25 HTTP/1.0

contains no path information so Apache does the redirect. (Yes, I probably 
shouldn't have used an analogy, they do always seem to go wrong somewhere.)

Re: cable modem

Is this a USB or ethernet connected cable modem?

If ethernet connected, just change your network settings, on your linux 
system, to dhcp and then "service network restart"...this will then set 
your system to try to obtain an address from the cable company.  If you're 
using ethernet, you don't have to configure anything on your Linux system, 
regarding the cable modem, itself.

mkinitrd starts RAID and LVM out of order

[David Nillesen]

I've been manually fixing this myself for the time being, but it would
appear that mkinitrd initial root disk images start RAID and LVM out of
order.

It always initialises LVM first by running vgscan etc then it runs the RAID
startup.

This means that any LVM on RAID system disks dont work.

I cant see any reason to start them in the current order. A simple change to
the order of things listed in /sbin/mkinitrd usually fixes things.

Regards,
Dave

"could not look up internet address"

[Cisco Serret]

I have recently installed RedHat 8 on my AMD based pc,
and everytime I start it up, I get the following
message:

Could not look up internet address for dhcp-223-4.
This will prevent GNOME from operating correctly. It
may be possible to correct the problem by adding
dhcp-223-4 to the file /etc/hosts

What is this about? Is it because its connecting
through a cable modem? What should I put in the
/etc/hosts file? Simply one line - "dhcp-223-4"?

It's in the kernel (although I'm not sure if it's enabled by default).
It isn't available at *install* time (my last being around two hours
ago) which means you'd have to install and then convert your filesystems
to XFS, which I can assure you is a PITA.

Samba permissions should have _nothing_ to do with telnet.
If your firewall is blocking telnet traffic, you can restart telnet and 
xinetd all day, it'll still fail. ;)

OK, everything works as it should. Punch a hole in the firewall for telnet 
traffic, and everything should work fine.

Where is the firewall machine? Is it the same machine that is running 
telnet, or another machine on the network. If it is the same machine, and 
you are running the default firewall installed and setup at installation 
time, you can modify it via 'setup'. As root, run 'setup' and select 
firewall configuration. Then, select 'customize', and 'allow incoming 
telnet'.
That should do it, I believe.

Probably a misleading message. You must enable each of those services 
_via_ xinetd.

Wrong commands. ;)

'chkconfig telnet on'

does all you need, provided xinetd is running as tested above.

If xinetd isn't running, 'service xinetd start' should work.
What is the result of 'chkconfig xinetd --list'
You should get something like:
# chkconfig xinetd --list
xinetd  0:off   1:off   2:off   3:on4:on5:on6:off

If it says 'off' for all runlevels, 'chkconfig xinted on' will fix it so 
it starts at boot time.

'man chkconfig' for details.

Actually, XMMS is the media player.  The plugin is *for* XMMS and is at
the link I provided earlier (and yes, at the xmms site as well).

I can produce that behavior if I make my server's default virtual host's
index a php file, but not otherwise.  That's sorta unexpected.  Who
defines this behavior?  Is it an effect of mod_php that php files 
"support" CONNECT?

I wouldn't go so far as to say that it's "just like" when a user forgets
the trailing slash.  When that happens, apache explicitly tells the
browser to try again:

$ telnet phantom.dragonsdawn.net 80
Trying 63.164.112.5...
Connected to phantom.dragonsdawn.net.
Escape character is '^]'.
GET http://ispd.eburg.com/images HTTP/1.1
Host: ispd.eburg.com
   

HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2003 03:45:26 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.27 (Unix)  (Red-Hat/Linux) mod_ssl/2.8.12
OpenSSL/0.9.6b DAV/1.0.3 PHP/4.1.2 mod_perl/1.26
Location: http://ispd.eburg.com/images/


In fact, I don't see the parallel between the two behaviors at all...

Either way, this seems a plausible explanation of the 200 response code
to the CONNECT method.

Usermin is a separate package from webmin.  You can download it from the

Yup, I had that plug-in. But it wasn't working in 8.1
Then I remembered to go into xmms, and disable the "placeholder" that
Redhat sticks in there.

Works much better now.

Actually, it is. It depends on what your index file type is.

If your index file type is .html then you will get the exact behaviour you 
speak of because HTML does not support any methods other then GET (unless you 
change HTML to be parsed by PHP or equivilent).

However, if you use (for example) PHP and have index.php as the default page, 
it will accept the unusual method (if not prevented by "Limit" directives) 
but wind up processing it as a "GET /" in the end. This is because, it will 
be just like when a user doesn't put a trailing slash in the location bar, 
Apache will automatically redirect it to /.

NFS with 2 NIC

[James Chao]

I have 2 NICs on my RH Linux 8. The IP addresses are 10.0.0.5 and 10.0.0.6 for eth0 
and eth1, respectively. I have set up nfs and it is half working. I am mounting my nfs 
server from my Mac OSX machine. 

Here is the problem: I can only mount to "nfs://10.0.0.6/home/shared".  When I try to 
mount to the other IP address, "nfs://10.0.0.5/home/shared", the machine hangs until 
timed out.

However, I was able to mount with my other Linux box.

My "/etc/exports" looks like this:

/home/shared/  10.0.0.3(rw,insecure)

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Beg to differ on the above... from man bash

Note  that  the order of redirections is significant.  For example, the
command
 
   ls > dirlist 2>&1
 
directs both standard output and standard error to  the  file  dirlist,
while the command
 
   ls 2>&1 > dirlist

directs  only the standard output to file dirlist, because the standard
error was duplicated as standard output before the standard output  was
redirected to dirlist.

Nod! I too, want to see stderr from all cronjobs. But the above syntax will
still print stderr before the echo statement should foo fail. Functionally,
the following is equivelent.

* * * * * foo >/dev/null || echo "Foo failed. Fix me."

If you just want to see the echo statment without stderr, then...
* * * * * foo >/dev/null 2>&1 || echo "Foo failed. Fix me."

Did you try your test?  I've tried the CONNECT command against several
servers, and always get a 405 message.  Apache should not (and in my
tests, does not) respond with a 200 code when you feed it the CONNECT
command.  Sending back the index page is not the expected or defined
behavior, so I'm not sure why you'd expect that outcome.

Synchronous (function call type) interface ?

[Tom Sanders]

I have two application servers running at different
machines and I want to provide a function call type
(synchronous) interface to applications.

This operation may mean one server to send/receive
data from another server. Since I want application to
be unaware of such inter-machine communication and 
yet provide a synchronous interface, I want client
call to be blocked in local server unless all data is
ready.

Any suggessions about good ways of achieving this
functionality? Message Q, Pipes, anything? Your inputs
will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Tom

RE: java IDE...

Yes it was renamed.  The community edition really has a lot of features
(like Tomcat embbedded and ant included for build work and mobile
editions and cvs client (for getting and building open source projects
ect..).

The only trouble I had was installing the ide/java sdk combo package. 
It didn't set the java_home properly and wouldn't install the ide until
the home was set.  Easy to fix, just set the JAVA_HOME and then
re-install.  There's a better explaination on the install? forum for for
Forte. 

Also, Forte and NetBeans are built off the same code.  People advised me
that Forte on Linux can be tricky to install and suggested NetBeans
instead.

Happy coding and please make a killer-app to sink Bill G and his evil

Little endian to big endian conversion ?

[Tom Sanders]

Is someone aware of a tool that converts data from
little endian mode to big endian mode? I know that
there are macros like "htonl" and "htons", but what
I'm looking for is a tool, that automatically
generates the packing routines, given the structure
declaration.

Basically I want applications to not worry about
packing their data, as long as they want to transfer a
fixed set of structures. This common layer is supposed
to offload this chore from application.

Just wanted to check before I try to reinvent the
wheel.

TIA.

Further to my comments about the 845 not being well supported as yet, I
found the following Intel Linux support page:

http://support.intel.com/support/graphics/intel845g/linux.htm

Basically, it appears the latest version of XFree86 has a 810 driver which
may work properly with the new 845G chips.

This is untried and untested, just jotting it up for your reference.

Yes! But update forwarding means that the above system (slab) must be a
slave for a zone which received an UPDATE request, but could not notify the
master. By default, this should be disabled.  See allow-update-forwarding

Or, tell the client IP address to disable dynamic DNS updates.

It's in the kernel (although I'm not sure if it's enabled by default). 
It isn't available at *install* time (my last being around two hours
ago) which means you'd have to install and then convert your filesystems
to XFS, which I can assure you is a PITA.

Yes, just specify gnome-terminal with all the desired options as the
program to execute instead of telling GNOME to run the app in a terminal
window.

[Desktop Entry]
Name=My Program
Comment=a great program
Exec=gnome-terminal --background=BLUE --foreground=WHITE --title 'My Program' -x 
myprogram
Icon=/usr/local/share/pixmaps/myprogram.png

Close the Nautilus window (Start Here), then use the save-session command
to save the session. You should be able to run the command using the "Run"
menu item in the Panel.

Thank the good folks at Google for the answer to this one.

  http://unix.about.com/library/glossary/bldef-bash-startup-files.htm

  Bourne Shell Compatibility:
  When the bash shell is invoked with the name sh, it attempts to
  mimic the startup sequence of the original Bourne shell. It runs
  commands in /etc/profile followed by ~/.profile, if these files
  exist.

It appears that your users are running bash in sh mode. Putting the
commands in ~/.profile should work as well. A simple workaround for this
is to link ~/.profile to ~/.bash_profile. If you do this in the /etc/skel
directory it should be applied to all new users too.

Re: backup script sends large email to root? Is it cron doing it?

[Todd A. Jacobs]

On Thu, 23 Jan 2003, Bapi Ghosh wrote:

> tar  > /dev/null 2>&1

This is backwards. You needs to redirect stderr before redirecting stdout:

foo 2>&1 > /dev/null

Or, the MAILTO line in the crontab can be tweaked (it works in a top-down 
fashion):

# Mail results to [EMAIL PROTECTED] until otherwise specified.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
* * * * * foo
* * * * * bar
#
# No output on following items.
MAILTO=""
* * * * * baz

The foo and bar lines will have output mailed, but baz won't. I still 
don't think it's a good idea to close output, whether using MAILTO or 
/dev/null, but those are the options.

A much better technique would be to *minimize* output so that you only get 
an email when a cron job fails. A simple way to do this would be:

* * * * * foo 2>&1 > /dev/null || echo "Foo failed. Fix me."

Otherwise, you might never know there's been a problem.

Though some of the other replies seem to indicate it will work, I have 
never been sucessfully at it either.  My limited research suggests that 
ssh was not designed to support this arrangement.  My alternative would be 
to ssh tunnel from hostA to hostB thru hostC.

Apache 2.041or above RPM's?

[DuSTiN KRySaK]

Does anyone know if there is a RPM anywhere for Apache 2.0.41 or above? I
need it for coldfusion to work on my redhat 8 system. But since I am brand
to linux ,and have been reading, etc I still prefer the RPM at this
point. On the redhat FTP, the newest they seem to have is 2.0.40.

And if there are any people running Coldfusion MX on redhat 8, I would like
to talk to you off list if possible.

Thanks!!

As far as I know their stance hasn't changed. They don't want to deal
with the potential licensing issues with the mp3 format. They won't
support mp3 playback and you will still have to "bring your own". Which
isn't that hard when Freshrpms, GuruLabs, fedora(likely in the future),
and other projects continue to release third-party packages to add mp3
support in. There is also nothing stopping you from making your own.
Personally I have downloaded RedHat's source rpm, installed it, modified
the spec file a little, replaced the patched tar.bz2 file with the
original, and recompiled.

RE: Webmin

[cj]

Have a look through the different menu item at the top of you webmin page.

>From the menu item on the top of the screen you can configure almost every
aspect of your linux box.
ie from the system menu item you can add/remove users and groups
umm, shedule cron jobs, view running processes.

from the services menu you can configure the services that you have
installed, on your machine
ie bind, apache, mysql, sendmail, samba, etc

also have a look at http://www.webmin.com/index2.html this is the
documentation page for webmin, it will have links to guides that people have

Re: Does RH 8.0 run on i845PE-based MoBo?

[Richard Humphrey]

You might try Mandrake 9 or even cooker, which is their most current.
Mandrake seems to stay ahead of the other distros for new hardware support
etc. I am not sure if RH 8 supports your hardware or not, but IMHO Mandrake
would be best chance.

Don't worry (yet). The 200 response doesn't mean they've gotten through.

Do this simple test...

$telnet your.webserver.here 80
Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx...
Connected to your.webserver.here.
Escape character is '^]'.
CONNECT some.mailserver.here:25 HTTP/1.0

Hit enter twice after that last line.

If you get your normal index page, then all is well.

If you get something like...

HELO something

Then you better start locking things down. This means you have connected 
through the web server to a mail server.

You are seeing the /home/ftp directory.  I think you can put in symbolic
links to any other directory you want access to, there. 
These should usually go inside the pub (public) directory

Re: Does this mean my Apache is relaying mail?

[mklinke]

There has been a very long discussion about this on one of the 
intrusions e-mail lists.  Aparently rr.com will scan your address, and 
sometimes your entire net, when you send one of their customers an 
e-mail. They apparently go as far as trying to relay mail through 
misconfigured mail and and web hosts.

What is it?  Someone trying to do dynamic DNS updates to me?

This IP is not a trusted IP on my network, and it is not a primary/secondary
for any domain I am authority for although it is a host from one of the
domains I am primary for.

How can I stop this?  (I know who does run this box and we can instruct them
to turn on/off things if we can find this)

Thanks

Apache 2.0 and disallowed indexes

[Todd A. Jacobs]

I want a particular URL to disallow indexing. I have the following 
.htaccess file:


Options -Indexes


that is chmod 644, and "AllowOverride Indexes" in main configuration. 
Unfortunately, all I get is error 500 when I attempt to access specific 
files from that directory. 

What am I doing wrong?

My server is the same platform, but with apache-1.3.27-2.  You appear to
have the errata version from 7.2 installed.

In any case, If I telnet to port 80 on my server and issue a CONNECT
command, I get a 405 error, "Method not allowed", but I'm probably not
replicating their exact method.

If you're getting the scans fairly often, try dumping traffic on port 80
to a file using "tcpdump -w logfile port 80".  Next time you see such a
request, stop logging and use ethereal to reconstruct the HTTP
conversation, and you'll see exactly what commands were sent, and what
you server did about them.

you're right, it isn't. I didn't read your post close enough (then again, I 
didn't even think about the apache proxy to relay mail)

Re: XFS with RedHat?

it's there.  You can even chose it when you install 8.0.  If I remember

it should be even less work to include reiserfs support since it's been
in the standard kernel since 2.4.1. Maybe redhat 8 includes this, but last
time I installed 7.3 it did not, from what I remember at least. I think 
SuSE
(8 at least) provides xfs, reiser, ext3, ext2, and *maybe* jfs, looks like
8.1 has jfs according to the website.

I'd probably still use ext3, just so I have a system running it(most of the
rest are debian, with 1 suse machine, all use ext2 or reiserfs), but it'd
be nice if the option was there.

Usermin is a separate, yet similar program.  Usermin is something for

That's what I am worried about.

Red Hat 7.3
apache-1.3.27-1.7.2

No proxy enabled unless it is enabled by default. mod_proxy is not
loaded and the ProxyRequests On is commented out as per the default
install.

HI Dave,

Yes I do run FormMail.pl but AFAIK it is a secure version and I have
tested it myself.

But THAT should be using the local sendmail binary to send mail and that
is what I see in my Postfix logs when someone uses it.

For instance in my SSL log
203.46.4.200 - - [24/Jan/2003:07:42:03 +1000] "POST /cgi-bin/FormMail.pl
HTTP/1.1" 302 306 "https://www.zordah.net/payaccount.php"; "Mozilla/5.0
(compatible; Konqueror/3; Linux)"

Nothing in my normal log where I am seeing the above messages.

and in my Postfix log
Jan 24 07:42:03 caramon postfix/pickup[2757]: 5DD3C341DD: uid=48
from=
Jan 24 07:42:03 caramon postfix/cleanup[6454]: 5DD3C341DD:

Jan 24 07:42:03 caramon postfix/virtual[6470]: 5DD3C341DD:

So no, that isn't it...

What worried me the most was the CONNECT and the PUT both returning a
status of 200 (OK) and returning about 12k of data to them!

I understand them looking for port 25 and 80 to see if you are running
email or web services but requesting a foreign port 25 connection via
the webserver seems very suspicious to me.

It means that 24.30.199.228 is trying to use your apache server as a
proxy to reach the mail server at security.rr.com.

That ip is known as securityscan.sec.rr.com, so you're probably a
customer of theirs that they're checking for security problems.

The status 200 may indicate that you're vulnerable to the problem
they're testing for.  What version of apache are you running?  On what
platform?  Have you enabled proxying?

Webmin

[John Salamone]

Hi,

I am trying to install webmin on my system. When I clicked on usermin
config. it came
back saying "usermin config directory /etc/usermin was not found on your
system. Maybe usermin is not installed , or module config is incorrect".
Should I just type mkdir usermin in the etc directory or do something
else  Thanks for any help.

there's a really common cgi script called formail.cgi/formail.pl that is 
routinely exploited to relay mail, that maybe what they're checking for... 
(look in your error logs for an attempt at formail)


surely a webserver itself doesn't send mail, but a program that the webserver 
runs certainly can (and does)

[Mike Burger]

Well, as the installatin procedure noted, at the end, you should point a 
web browser at that box, at port 1, log in as root with the root 
password, and go from there.

RE: Does this mean my Apache is relaying mail?

[Rigler, S C (Steve)]

I'm assuming you're a RoadRunner customer?  

Your Apache isn't relaying anything.  It looks like RoadRunner is
doing some sort of audit on their customers.  I have been picking these
up in my /var/log/messages (from iptables logging) and my Apache logs.
They are from as far back as December 24th (that's how far back my
logs go) and seem to happen at least once a week.

In addition to Apache, I see them probing these ports:
119, 25, 8080, 8081, 6588, 4480, 3128, 1080, 81

I realize that our TOS probably allows them to portscan our computers,
but it would seem a little bit more "polite" if they announced that they
were going to be doing it beforehand.  To me, this seems like the 
equivalent of my homeowners association rattling all of the windows on
my house in the middle of the night to make sure they're locked.

If these scans from RoadRunner bother you (they bother me), you can take
care of the problem they way I did:

iptables -I INPUT --src 24.30.199.228/32 -j DROP
or
route add 24.30.199.228 reject

I noticed log entries like these in my Apache logs.

24.30.199.228 - - [22/Jan/2003:18:55:49 +1000] "CONNECT

Since 24.30.199.228 is not my IP address does that mean they are
relaying mail through my Apache or is it my Apache sending mail to them?

Yes I know it is a webserver and not a mailserver, I have enough
experience with both to know the difference :P

Seeing a explicit connection to a port 25 led me to wonder if there was
some proxy attempt there.  People have been abusing misconfigured web
proxies to relay spam mail for quite some time now and perhaps there is
a way to do the same with a webserver?

Re: Fw: Running text based application in a Window

[Billy Davis]

Thanks for your continuing help Tony.  Looks like I took 2 steps forward and
one step backward.  While testing the 'gnome-terminal -x myprogram'
approach, I discovered that I could add
'--background=BLUE --foreground=WHITE' and I got nice colors in the text
window, instead of black and white.  With the new approach (.desktop file in
user/.gnome-desktop), I have lost the colors.  However, my application
program does run when I click on the icon. My current questions are:

1. Is there a way to add color lines to the [Desktop Entry] file to get my
colors back?

2. When I log onto the gnome window as 'parts', the 'Start Here' window is
automatically open, and I have to close it to be able to see my 'Parts Dept'
icon.  Can I change this to not display the 'Start Here' window unless I
click on the 'Start Here' icon?

3. After reading your note on .bash_profile, I removed my .profile file from
the 'parts' users directory, and re-enabled .bash_profile, adding the switch
settings to it, from the .profile file.  For example, I have a lot of
switches like this:
INVENTORY=TRUE
BINNUMS=TRUE
MULTICOST=FALSE
DATADIR=/parts/data
etc.

4. After logging onto gnome as 'parts', with .bash_profile modified and
enabled, clicking on the 'Parts Dept' icon will briefly display a black and
white empty text window, and then will immediately close.  Opening a regular
terminal window and testing for my switches (ie, echo $INVENTORY), confirms
that they are not set.  Restoring things back to using the .profile allows
the application to come up properly.  Why will .bash_profile not work?

Again, thanks for your help.  I think I am close on this.

RE: Burning CD's of 8.1 beta (solved)

[Ric Tibbetts]

All;
I have this solved.
The problem was:

Redhat changed the beta version while I was downloading it. 
I ended up with disc one being beta 1, and discs 2 & 3 on beta 2.

That didn't work out so well.

RE: Burning CD's of 8.1 beta (solved)

[Ric Tibbetts]

Ok, I'm the master of the exceedingly odd situations. 

What happened was:

Redhat changed the beta versions on the mirrors, as I was downloading
them.
The result was: Disc 1 was beta 1, disc 2 & 3 were beta 2.

Redhat: How about putting new versions in appropriately titled
directories, to avoid this in the future? It was pretty frustrating.

I'm up on 8.1 beta 2 now. But getting here could have been a lot easier.

Does this mean my Apache is relaying mail?

[Peter Kiem]

I noticed log entries like these in my Apache logs.

24.30.199.228 - - [22/Jan/2003:18:55:49 +1000] "CONNECT
security.rr.com:25 HTTP/1.0" 200 14244 "-" "-"
24.30.199.228 - - [22/Jan/2003:18:55:49 +1000] "PUT
http://security.rr.com:25/ HTTP/1.1" 200 12768 "-" "-"

Since 24.30.199.228 is not my IP address does that mean they are
relaying mail through my Apache or is it my Apache sending mail to them?

Re: Webmin

[John Salamone]

Mike,

I assume your suppose to click on usermin config. but when I did it came
back saying "usermin config directory /etc/usermin was not found on your
system. Maybe usermin is not installed , or module config is incorrect".
Should I just type mkdir usermin in the etc directory or do something
else

RE: java IDE...

[Rigler, S C (Steve)]

I just went to Sun's site to double check this.

When I got it, it was called "Forte 4 Java".  Now it looks like
it's become "Sun ONE Studio 4", but I may not have been looking
hard enough.

Either way, there is a community version which is free and an
enterprise edition that's pretty pricey.

RE: how to change NIC card

[David H]

Here is what I would do. I'll put in card one at a
time. At boot time let the OS detect the card then
prompt you for ip. To avoid all confusion.

Re: Webmin

[Mike Burger]

The noarch.rpm is probably your best bet...when you download it, it will 
download into whatever local directory you're in.  Then, just rpm -i on 
that file, and it'll install to wherever it should go.

Here is some stuff I located online that works fine.  I copied a ton of
fonts over and it can see them ALL just fine.  

::

Installing TrueType fonts
1. Make a truetype directory mkdir /usr/share/fonts/ttf

2. Copy TrueType fonts to /usr/share/fonts/ttf

3. Run ttmkfdir > fonts.scale
4. Run mkfontdir
5. If you have chkfontpath
chkfontpath -a /usr/share/fonts/ttf
6. fc-cache on the same directory
7. Restart X [Ctrl] + [Alt] + [Backspace]

Sendmail Configuration with fetchmail

[Andy Kirk]

I am attempting to use fetchmail, to collect mail on my RH8 machine, from an
internal machine that does not have a public IP address.

My RH box is refusing the mail because sendmail can not verify the domain -
unsurprising, as the domain name does not really exist.

Is there anyway to tell sendmail to allow mail from paticular hosts
regardless of the DNS failure orno.

Thanks

Does RH 8.0 run on i845PE-based MoBo?

[Mark Pettifor]

Hello all:

Sorry if this has been discussed before, but RH forums currently aren't searchable (or 
I'm too dumb to figure out how), so I'm subscribing to the list to ask my Q.

I bought a Dell Dimension 4550, with hopes of running Linux either dual-boot with 
Windows, or just Linux.  Thought I'd try one of the major distros, like Red Hat or 
Mandrake.  For kicks, I tried Mandrake 8.2, and got errors of the kind you'd get when 
trying to install Linux on hardware that's too new (wouldn't recognize the IDE 
controller, onboard video, etc.)  Running startx would give me the X pointer, then 
just hang.

Has anyone had success with RH 8 on this particular machine, which uses the Intel 
845PE chipset?  It's got a P4 processor.  It isn't listed on RH's HCL, but that 
doesn't mean that some intelligent, innovative, lucky person out there hasn't figured 
it out

Thanks for any help you can give, or place you can point me to for the answer.

Cheers,

Mark Pettifor

If your module is not loaded, you need to tell the kernel to load it. You can recompile the kernel with the new source code; but easier, you can add the module load to your rc local, so it can load the module dynamically at boot time. The default dir for modules is /lib/modules/kernel/...
But I think something is wrong with your module (the one you already have in the above dir). The best thing in these situations is to compile the module source code and then reload it. Give it some more time.

the issues that I am seeing, and what is confusing me, is that, checking the etc/modules.conf, the card is aliased properly..
checking the .etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file, the file is configured for dhcp,...
and doing an ifup and ifdown gives me the same error,..
 
doing an lsmod command, I do not see the module loaded at all..
 
I will have to play around with it a bit more.Do you Yahoo!?
