RE: rh 7x install hangs on MS-6368 motherboard

[Willem van der Walt<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>]

Hi,
I thought there are too many problems with rh 8.0 and
decided to wait for 8.1.
We are now taking the board to the distributor for testing.
The 121 mb ram is shown as the box tests the memory before boot.
It shows the vidio ram sepperatly so i do not think it is that.
thanks anyway.
regards, Willem

Hi Arden,

In addition, the usual O'Reilly books - Bash, Kornshell, csh/tcsh.

RE: Red Hat PHP + Interbase?

[Peter Kiem]

Hi,

I was the original poster that needed the Interbase support in PHP.

> "To enable InterBase support configure PHP --with-interbase[=DIR], where
> DIR is the InterBase base install directory, which defaults to
> /usr/interbase."

Yup the procedure I used was:
- install the appropriate SRPM
- cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/
- vi php.spec
- add "--with-interbase \" line at around line 347 or so
- save and exit
- rpm -bb php.spec

> redhat simply doesn't set this flag. why not?

One gotcha is that you must have Interbase (or Firebird) installed to do
the build as the RPM build looks for libgds.so which is an Interbase
library.

So without this library installed you cannot add Interbase support to PHP.
 This may be why Red Hat doesn't ship PHP already configured with
Interbase support.

> and why would this be a larger and more general php community issue?

I would guess the larger and more general php community would be using
mysql or postgresql...

RedHat 7.1, sendmail, and LDAP

Sorry if this is a repost.  I never saw it come back to my mail, so I
don't know if I mis-sent it or what.



I am trying to get setup for LDAP, and I am also going to be setting
sendmail for LDAP.  Some of the documentation I have read, *strongly*
suggestd using sendmail version >8.12.  I looked on rmpfind.net and
found an rpm, but it says "Rawhide" will this be okay for Redhat 7.1
(SeaWolf)?

hmm... please excuse me if i am missing something obvious (usually am)
but what i'm talking about is a simple compile-time flag that needs to
get set. as mentioned at http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.ibase.php :

"To enable InterBase support configure PHP --with-interbase[=DIR],
where DIR is the InterBase base install directory, which defaults to
/usr/interbase."

redhat simply doesn't set this flag. why not?

and why would this be a larger and more general php community issue?

am i missing something obvious? thanks..

Your monitor is not returning valid information when probed. No biggie, as

Depending on the version difference and the packages installed the
entire file from the old system may cause problems since later version
have added users to run serveices that did not use to be there.  ntp
comes to mind, and the switch from httpd to apache .  I would copy only
the users and groups with ids > 499.  You should be ok then

With all the upgrades going on, there really ought to be a utility for
this.  It would be pretty simple I think but I haven't the time.

hi all,

would it be possible for interbase support to be included in the php rpm

this topic was apparently discussed earlier on this list:

wrt rh7.3, but ibase support didn't get added in to rh8.0.

just wondering, since the php rpm is not a simple (re)compile, and might

save a number of us considerable time.

This is related to the change in Red Hat 8 to UTF8 fonts.

One of the ways around it is to create an alias in your .bashrc
file or /etc/bashrc file.  The alias should look like:

alias man='env LANG="C" man'

I did this in Python, but not shell.

Use Popen3; you can open a connection, it will return three file
handles, stdin, stdout, and stderr. You can then write and read commands
to these. I did this on a network with HP-UX and Linux clients. It
worked perfectly.

If interested, I can post my script example for it. It is one of the
things I use in my sysadmin w/Python class. :)

In shell, you wind up needing to do it the way you do with rcp: sending
each command in it's own connection. Or use expect. :(

Hi,

1) copy your shadow, passwd, group file to the new machine.
2) nfs mount your old redhat's home dir to the new machine.
3) to move everything from one place to another place, use
cd fromdir; tar cf - . | (cd todir; tar xpf -)
(this works great for me whenever I need to move data around)
4) repeat step 2 and 3 for your mail dir.

Maybe someone knows better.

I did this in Python, but not shell.

Use Popen3; you can open a connection, it will return three file
handles, stdin, stdout, and stderr. You can then write and read commands
to these. I did this on a network with HP-UX and Linux clients. It
worked perfectly.

If interested, I can post my script example for it. It is one of the
things I use in my sysadmin w/Python class. :)

In shell, you wind up needing to do it the way you do with rcp: sending
each command in it's own connection. Or use expect. :(

Funny man pages

[David Busby]

List,
My man pages on one of my RH80 boxes put a letter 'a' with a carat above
inplace of where the '-' character should be.  Here's a bit from `man
logrotate`.  How do I fix this one?  I don't know how to manipulate the
system font (which is what I think is broken).  This machine doesn't have
any window system running.



OPTIONS
   âd Turns  on  debug mode and implies âv.  In debug mode, no
changes
  will be made to the logs or to the logrotate state file.

   âf, ââforce
  Tells logrotate to force the rotation, even if it doesnât
think
  this  is  necessary.   Sometimes this is useful after adding
new
  entries to logrotate, or if old log files have been  removed
by
  hand,  as  the  new files will be created, and logging will
conâ
  tinue correctly.

   âm, ââmail 
  Tells logrotate which command to use  when  mailing  logs.
This
  command  should accept two arguments: 1) the subject of the
mesâ
  sage, and 2) the recipient. The command must then read a
message
  on standard input and mail it to the recipient. The default
mail
  command is /bin/mail âs.

Re: Scripting help

With a little web-searching, you should be able to find a ton of tutorials 
on shell scripting. If you liked DOS scripting, you'll be amazed at what 
you can do with one of the *nix shells.

The O'Reilly bash book is probably the best book for learning Linux shell
scripting. While you can certainly use other shells or scripting
languages, bash is the default shell on nearly all distros, so it's 
definitely the best one to master.

My favorite of all time is the The KornShell by David Korn.  The Korn shell
is on all Unix systems, and the concepts and coding work equally well under
GNU's bash.

It depends on when you configured up2date, if you had "After installation,
keep binary images on disk" checked.  If you did, the rpm will be in
/var/spool/up2date, if not they won't be there, but you can change this
behavior for the next go 'round.  Just run up2date -configure and make sure
"After installation, keep binary images on disk" is checked.

Unsubscribing from RedHat List

[jkinz]

Hi all
The problem of folks posting unsubscribe messages has existed on
the RedHat install list for a long time and at a higher rate than
here.  It has been partially solved thru the use of an automated
responder which emails an informative (and non-hostile :-) )
message directly to the person needing a clue.

It does not post to the list and currently tries not to respond
to the same individual more than once.

I'll turn it on for this list as well.  If it turns out to
be disruptive I'll turn it off.  Please send complaints to me at:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Here is the message which is sent:

Subject: UNSUBSCRIBING from the RedHat list and the RedHat install list
From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

TO XXZZXXZZXXZZ:
This is an automated response to your email containing the word
"unsubscribe" on the subject line.  It is intended to help you unsubscribe
from one of the RedHat mailing lists.  

If that is not what you wanted to do then please ignore this message.


1.  HOW TO UNSUBSCRIBE
   Go to the https link shown here:
for the RedHat List:
https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

for the RedHat Install List:
https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-install-list

   On the BOTTOM of that page, Find the box labeled "Edit Options".
   Put your email address in the box to its left 
   and then Click the box that says "Edit options".

   On the TOP of the next page put your password in the first box,
   (The one to the left of the box that says "Unsubscribe").
   Then click the box that says "Unsubscribe".  Thats all.


2.  WHAT IF I DON'T KNOW MY PASSWORD ?

   Go to the https link shown here:
for the RedHat List:
https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

for the RedHat Install List:
https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-install-list

   On the BOTTOM of that page, Find the box labeled "Edit Options".
   Put your email address in the box to its left 
   and then Click the box that says "Edit options".

   On the next page find the box that says "Email My Password To Me".
   Click that box.  Thats all.

   Your password will be emailed to you. When you get it follow the
   instructions for #1 above.

Do up2date files remain on updated system?

[Billy Davis]

I have just finished my first 'up2date' on an RH7.3 Server.  The download
seemed to go well, and then immediately afterward, my Server was
automatically updated.  Are the fresh update files still located on my
Server so that I can also apply them to other Servers in the building?
Also, is there a way to break this into a 2 step process, where I can
download first, and then apply the patches later when it might be more
convenient?

Thanks,

Hardware browser hangs system

[Mats Tegner]

Dear Friends,
What exactly does the Hardware Browser in the System Tools do?
When I run it my system locks up entirely and I have to turn of the
power and check the file system on the next boot.

IBM IntelliStation M Pro 6219 with:
2.8 GHz Pentium4
2 x 36.4 GB U320 SCSI HDD on an Adaptec AIC-7901A controller.
nVidia Quadro4 980 XGL
IDE CD-RW
Broadcom Integrated Gigabit Ethernet
Red Hat Linux 8.0 (kernel 2.4.18-14, complete install)
Nvidia Linux Driver 1.0-4191

Is the Hardware Browser incompatible with my system or is it just buggy?
Regards,
Mats

Dont' specify a hostname or port.  If you do, the PostgreSQL libraries
attempt a TCP/IP connection.  If you leave them unspecified, it will use
the default UNIX socket connection.

Typically, leaving port 23 open gets you fired.  If you're using a recent OS
(V5) on your AS/400, you get built in encrypted communications.  Great
reason to upgrade your OS.

Yes - the operating system doesn't see that you have shared memory -
it
will ask the BIOS for how memory you've got, and how much video
memory.

You can't.  The OS will never see it since the BIOS will strip it out
first.  Based on your numbers though, I'd say you've got 8MB of
shared
memory dedicated to video.

I'll also ask nicely again for you to wrap your lines.  If you don't,
people will start refusing to follow up.

You should be able to find out what it's called, e.g. with running
"ps uxw". Else I can't help. Both "konsole" and "gnome-terminal"
have a menu, "xterm" can be configured via a resource entry in
~/.Xresources.

Btw, top-posting with full quotes at the bottom sucks.

RE: Monitor Shakes....

[Alan Harding]

Also the speakers will still affect it even if they are turned off, cos
they have bloody big magnets in them. However, if your wifes iMac is
affected it sounds more like pickup from the wiring. 

Im not sure about US wiring, but in the UK, they change the standards
every year, and if you are in a house over 10yrs old the wiring maybe of
a bad/old standard.

One thing has just occured to me, I was in a Comms room once where the
cables went all the way around the room under the floor, the last spur
being near to the entry point. This caused a rather nice magnetic field
effect in the room. Moving to another room cured the issue, but, in your
case if one room has this wiring chances are they all will.

Just a thought.

What happens if you run logwatch from the command line? e.g.

$ logwatch --service secure --detail high --range all --print

Maybe you'll get some more information that will help you diagnose the

PTPADDR and IPADDR shouldn't be on the same network.. it's not going to know

[root@localhost root]# more autossh

  expect {

Subject: scripting an ssh session


  
  
We have a couple of servers that we want to push out periodic updates
to.  We want to automate this as much as possible.  

We have password-less ssh working (thanks to the group for that!).  So
using a shell script we can login in to a remote machine.  But that is
all we can do.  Once we login we are in a completely different shell
environment.  My script stops executing at that point.  Once I logout of
the remote server, my script continues running.

Is it possible to continue feeding commands from the ssh shell script I
wrote to the remote machine?  For example, if my script is something
like:

ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
cd /usr/local
echo "some new command" >> therefile
logout
exit 1

How can I get everything past the ssh command to run on the remote
machine?  Is it possible?

Thanks,

Dave Simmons

Weird but Continual Sound Problem

[Kevin]

Since install, and the only time this has ever NOT occured was when the
first run service (firstboot) ran.  I have an SB16 card, all is fine, 
plays oggs,
flashpleyer in mozilla, you name it, perfect BUT NOT UNTIL I move the volume
control in kmix (not up or down, but just actually MOVE it) for the 
first time after
reboot.  I also have to manually move the channel I want to listen to. 
For example,
I move the main volume, plus PCM for xmms ogg, but still can't listen to 
the CD
until I move it's channel once.

There are no errors that I can find, lsmod shows all modules loaded 
correctly, and
it all works.  If I run sndconfig, it runs fine, however, after 
selecting play test sound,
it will simply exit after about 1 minute.  After I move the mixer volume 
and PCM,
some time in the next 5 minutes, I will hear the test sound LOL :-). 
Like it is backed up until
some critical permission is tweaked.  After that, sndconfig can play the 
sound
right away.

This is a minor inconvenience, but am seeing this problem kreep up all 
over the place
with people using Redhat.  I would like to find a better solution than 
just 'move all
your mixer' channels after a reboot.

I have re-enabled first boot to see if system messages show anything 
different than
what I normally see on boot.

Regards,

Kevin Mills

  Yes, but when you're dealing with a lot of systems installed by

RedHat 7.1, sendmail, and LDAP

[Robert Canary]

I am trying to get setup for LDAP, and I am also going to be setting
sendmail for LDAP.  Some of the documentation I have read, *strongly*
suggestd using sendmail version >8.12.  I looked on rmpfind.net and
found an rpm, but it says "Rawhide" will this be okay for Redhat 7.1

Need help with CIPE

[James D. Parra]

Hello,

Anyone out there with experience with CIPE? 

Whenever I try testing the tunnel by pinging a machine on the other LAN the
NIC stops responding. When I unplug the cat5 cable and plug it back in the
NIC jumps back to life. The NIC only stops whenever I try to send data over
the tunnel, and never drops out at any other time..  Using different NICs
from various manufactures doesn't correct the problem nor does changing the
cable. It appears to be CIPE specific.

CIPE.d is running.  Below is the config file;


# Please read /usr/share/doc/initscripts-*/sysconfig.txt
# for the documentaTion of these parameters.
debug
USERCTL=yes
DEVICE=cipcb0
TYPE=CIPE
ONBOOT=yes
MYPORT=7778
PEER=192.168.0.1:
IPADDR=192.168.4.11
PTPADDR=192.168.4.10
me=192.168.0.2
nokey



Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Re: Kernel build compile errors

[Arthur Mueller]

If within a compile gcc tells you, that functions are not known, it
means, that headers are missing. Try to install the kernel headers.

Either you've them anyway or you install the package
glibc-kernheaders.xxx.rpm.

This should solve the problem.

Good luck!

Re: up2date freezing

[Robert Canary]

Interretly.  I did something similar.  I did kill the up2date, and did a
rpm --rebuilddb.  And it startied working agian. You know I could save
myself (and the list) if they would be more specific in the log file as
to what yp2date is doing.  I even turned on debug and ran the commanline
with -v (--verbose).  It never said anything, h.

Thanks for the input.

for all db admin tasks login as the user postgres, don't use root.
Don't set a password for postgres ( the default doesn't allow login ),
use root to become postgres:  su - postgres

Now, logged in as postgres, edit data/postgresql.conf and change
#tcpip_socket = false
to
tcpip_socket = true

You may need to change data/pg_hba.conf too.

When creating users ( postgres: createuser username ), I allow them to
create databases, and then I create what I need with that user so he's
the owner of db, not postgres.

On Login Failure

[Adam Voigt]

I have a console program I wrote to page me, it works fine, 

but I'm trying to figure out how to make it execute if a failed login 

attempt occurs on my computer, scanning the messagelog and 

trying to detect whether a new entry has been added or when it's 

rotated off, etc. is pretty messy. 



Any ideas?

Yes - the operating system doesn't see that you have shared memory - it
will ask the BIOS for how memory you've got, and how much video memory.

You can't.  The OS will never see it since the BIOS will strip it out
first.  Based on your numbers though, I'd say you've got 8MB of shared
memory dedicated to video.

I'll also ask nicely again for you to wrap your lines.  If you don't,
people will start refusing to follow up.

Redhat Phoebe, USB 2 Hard Drive

[Weekley, Arnold (C)(STP)]

I just purchased a new system. It has a  MSI KT3 Ultra2 KT333 Socket A Mainboard,
an AMD Athlon 2100+ processor and a 80mb Western Digital drive. 
I've loaded Phoebe for testing. In general, things look good. The primary problem
I'm having is when I copy files from an Iomega USB 2 Hard drive to my home
directory, the copy sometimes locks up. When it locks up, I can still perform
other system functions, but cannot kill the copy and cannot browse the usb
hard drive. I've done a , logged in as root and executed "halt".
The system won't shutdown though, because it says /home is busy and can't be
unmounted. I've had to turn the power off to finish the shutdown. I can do this
while testing, but would rather not when I make the system my primary computer.

I searched google and found that there are some USB 2 issues with kernels prior
to 2.4.21-pre3, in particular with the VIA USB controller.

My primary question is: Is there a way I can force a clean shutdown when 
unmount won't?

2nd question is: Does anybody know if Redhat will be incorporating the USB fixes
in 8.1 final?

PHP and PostgreSQL

[Joel Lopez]

Hi,

I have installed Red Hat 8.  I have been trying to use PostgreSQL with PHP
but I can't seem to connect to the DB.
I have created a user and a DB in postgres.  What is the proper way to set
up the DB and new user?  Should the new user be the owner of the DB?

Thanks for the help.
Joel

lpr printing problems: Once Again

[rahul b jain cs student]

hi,

i have a server which is connected to a printer in its network. I am able
to print from the server. however when i try to print to the same
printer from a host in another network i am getting the following error

Status Information:
 sending job 'root@marieke+353' to feebe@localhost
 connecting to 'localhost', attempt 1
 connected to 'localhost'
 requesting printer feebe@localhost
 sending control file 'cfA353marieke.njit.edu' to feebe@localhost
 job 'root@marieke+353' transfer to feebe@localhost failed
  error 'ERROR TRANSFERRING DATA'
  sending control file 'cfA353marieke.njit.edu' to feebe@localhost


i was able to print from this host before. havent changed the printcap

'feebe' is the name of the printer.

Plz advice,

I also suggest you check out linux-sxs.org.  Go to the site and search on
MailMan.  They have excellent docs on setting it up.

RE: Less memory reported by system

[Jihuang Zhou]

Thanks. I do have a on-board video card and I always calculate them using 1k=1024byte. 
1. The same on-board video card will use the same shared memory in Redhat7.0 and 7.3, 
right?
2. How can I see the video shared memory size?
3. I want to find a way to get all physical memory size (320M).

Do you have on-board video?  If so, the shared memory used by the
graphics card will be deducted from the total.  

You also need to factor in the difference as to how different pieces
calculate a megabyte.  Is it 1000 kilobytes or 1024 kilobytes?
Similarly, is a kilobyte a 1000 bytes or 1024 bytes?  Although there are
now formal standards on how these should be specified, few vendors
actually use those standards.

There probably is, but you can just use 'less'. When the output of a 
command scrolls off the screen, just arrow-up to get the command back, 
then add a pipe to 'less' at the end of the line.

  locate somestring | less

You can PageUp, PageDown, and use the arrow (cursor) keys. There's also:

  gg   (first line)
  G(last line)
  q(Quit)
  /regexp  (find the string or regular expression that follows the slash)
  n(find the next occurance of the search string)

The manpage system on Linux uses less to view man pages.

You can also use 'less' to look at files:

  less filename

If looking at a file, you can edit it by typing 'vi'. after exiting vim, 
you will be returned to 'less' with the modified file loaded.

Have you checked the documentation at http://www.list.org ?

Also, in /usr/share/doc/mailman* you'll find some documentation.  The
INSTALL file has some instructions on creating a test mailing list and
this should get you going in the right direction.

What shell? What kind of terminal?

Btw, posting test messages is a bad habit. Test-post your regular
message instead. Imagine hundreds or thousands of subscribers would
post test message to this list. You can enable confirmation

Use fetchmail to pull the mail from POP. Use procmail to filter it. If you 
need more parsing, you can even pipe it from procmail to something like perl.

Hope that helps.
