i've already done the reading on this, even download the 
GCC3.2 version of the java-vm and still had the problem. 
how i have to figure out how i'm going to uninstall and 
reinstall 1.2 again.  i really need my java-vm :).  isn't 
there a simple way for a roll back?

Re: Apache2 + mod_auth_ldap

2003-03-14 Thread Daniel Brad Holder


Ok, I got it to work by adding

Base_DN "cn=Users, dc=MyDomain, dc=com"

and changing
UID_Attr uid to UID_Attr cn

So now I can authenticate via the Full Name of the user. How do I change
that to username/logon name?

As was already pointed out, 'LANG="C" acroread' should work.
You could also try the packages available here:
http://gurulabs.com/downloads.html

They seem to work well, including the acroread browser plugin.

serial port quickie

2003-03-14 Thread Steve Borho

I'm trying to read a stream of bytes coming into an RS-232 port.


I've read the setserial, stty, and termios man pages and thought I had
it all figured out.  The device is outputting 19200 8N1.  I use
setserial to set the baud rate, then use stty to disable hardware flow
control.

Now, when I cat /dev/ttyS1, I get a series of binary '0e00 0e00'
instead of the '1fff 2fff' which I should be seeing.  If I unplug the
device and plug into a windows box running hyperterm, the data shows
up like it's supposed to.

I even went so far as to write a C program which used tcsetattr to
set the baud rate and flow control settings, then read the bytes, but
the results were the same.

Can anyone tell me what step I'm missing?

(%:~/demos/bin)- setserial -a /dev/ttyS1
/dev/ttyS1, Line 1, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x02f8, IRQ: 3
Baud_base: 19200, close_delay: 34339, divisor: 0

FWIW, if you're just installing it to see what it's like, I'd put it on
the P3.  That's plenty of power to get a feel for it.  (I'm still happy
with my Athlon 750 with 384MB for everyday work.)  The video should be
supported out of the box, but to get full 3D acceleration you'll need
the drivers from nvidia.  Those are a bit of a pain, but once they're
installed they seem to work very well, at least on my GeForce2.

check your SCSI cable. sometimes such errors are caused by a bad cable
(e.g. using a standard cable instead of a LVD cable for devices that
require LVD). Also check the termination of the SCSI chain maybe a
terminator is bad. I've had similar messages when either the cable
or the terminator did not support LVD, the drive would work fine for
a while, then it would usually start coughing up errors(DLT8000)

HELP!!! server problems

2003-03-14 Thread Simpson, Doug

I have a compaq server that is running rh 7.3 and connected to a specter
logix tape library and a sony ait 50 gig tape drive.  My NetVault
software says the tape drive is not longer on line.  I reboot and it
appears that all is fine and then I get a scrolling error on my screen.
Below is the /var/log/messages file.  It appears to be hardware but is
it possible that it is something else.  It was working and then I redid
the server and the only difference between then and now is the
"PowerSchute software from APC.  PLEASE ANY HELP would be great.

I just noticed this. You said you had installed pcmcia-cs-3.2.4, but the 
message above seems to indicate otherwise:
Linux Kernel Card Services 3.1.22

Did the stock kernel-pcmcia-cs packages not work for you?

How did you determine 
PCIC="yenta_socket"
Most of the info I've seen for Toshiba laptops seems to indicate 
PCIC=i82365 is correct.

I didn't find any info for your specific model, but others use i82365:

2520CDS
http://www.apsoftware.it/~cris/pcmcia.html

Most of the info available here:
http://newsletter.toshiba-tro.de/main/

Seems to indicate the same thing.


Hope that helps,

Mozilla 1.3 Gtk2 ROCKS!!

2003-03-14 Thread Christopher Henderson

I dunno why, but the GTK version is extremely fast in comparison to the
normal one.  Why is that?  Wow is it ever fast...I'm highly impressed. 
I do hope Red Hat 8.1 ships this version - lovely.

Probably two kernels for different CPU architectures.

Run

  rpm -q kernel --qf "kernel-%{version}-%{release} is for %{arch}\n"

to find out.

Caveat: You could uninstall both packages at once with
"rpm --erase --allmatches kernel", BUT since you don't have
a newer or different kernel installed, you would be without a
kernel. My recommendation would be to install a new kernel first,
then remove the two old kernels.

Above bit refers to settings in /etc/vsftpd.conf as documented in
"man vsftpd.conf". I don't know how you configured vsftpd without
reading the manual. My answer above makes sense if you read this
mail from top to bottom. It explains that two configuration options
default to values that would ensure that uploads could not be
downloaded. However, it is your responsibility to verify that you
haven't changed these settings in vsftpd's config file.

OT(?) festival Text-To-Speech engine

2003-03-14 Thread Francisco Neira

Hi all,

I don't know if this is really an off-topic since festival is packed 
within the RH distro.

Does somebody has experience using festival to generate a .WAV file from 
a plain text?

*any* experiences about this will be highly appreciated. :-)

Have a nice weekend!

Re: Apache2 + mod_auth_ldap

2003-03-14 Thread Daniel Brad Holder

What is webmin?

Here is the part of httpd.conf concerning the ldap authentication:


Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride none
order allow, deny
AuthName "KEEP OUT!"
AuthType Basic
LDAP_Server www.mydomain.com
LDAP_Port 389
Bind_DN "cn=administrator, cn=Users, dc=MyDomain, dc=com"
Bind_Pass "heh"
UID_Attr uid
require valid-user


I think it binds to the ldap server correctly as I don't get a bind error
in error_log but I'm not sure how to set up the actual authentication
part. Any pointers?

There's an RHCE Exam Cram book by Kara Pritchard. It's a little out of 
date in it's coverage (often the case with printed study guides), but does 
exactly what you want: gives you an overview of the test process, and some 
guidance about passing.

The problem is that the Red Hat-isms change from version to version. That 
might not matter too much on the hands-on, depending on what the task is, 
but Red Hat has been known to shift packages and config files between 
versions, so learning *how* to problem solve is probably a better strategy 
than learning how to solve a particular problem.

Personally, I'd recommend taking the LPI exams instead. They have a little
less prominence, but they don't expire the way the RHCE does, they cost
less, and they're vendor-neutral. You can pass LPI by being familiar with
Linux in general, and not have to learn all the -isms for a given distro
(other than RPM and APT package management).

Personally, I refuse to pay almost $800 as a single pass/fail unit. If 
your employer is paying, then give it a whirl; if you fail, you'll know 
what you need to study for the next time. But if you're paying out of your 
own pocket, I'd steer clear of RHCE and go for an LPIC instead.

Ypgrate to Grub from lilo

2003-03-14 Thread Yanick Quirion

Hi all,

I'm using Redhat with lilo as boot loader. I read some stuff about grub and 
I'm very interested to install it. What are the steps to migrate from lilo 
to grub without problem? Also, is it simple to add another kernel into grub 
as it in lilo? The lilo file is very simple to understand, but the grub.conf 
seems more complex.

If you have any hints/tricks that will be good for me.

Thanks all

I ended up using GNOME, Sawfish, and GMC (instead of Nautilus). I find

That satisfies #1 (we managed to get that to work late last night). What we
are beating on now is #2.
Thanks in advance for the help
Edit /etc/sysctl.conf to add a line like this:

  net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1

Then restart networking:

  service network restart

When you dial in your winbox should be able to access the LAN.

RPM problem

2003-03-14 Thread Jacky Li

Hi there,

When I tried to run a rpm --rebuild to rebuild the database.  It seems
like it just hangs and doing anything.  I am suspecting a corrupt database.
When I use the package program under X, it hangs at the point of looking at
the headers. Now the rpm cron jobs are backup up:

root  1388  1259  0 Mar13 tty2 00:00:00
/usr/lib/rpm/rpmd --rebuilddb
root  3749  3471  0 04:02 ?00:00:00 /bin/sh /etc/cron.daily/rpm
root  3751  3749  0 04:02 ?00:00:00
/usr/lib/rpm/rpmq -q --all --qf

The command rpm -qa and rpm -qf seems fine. The problem occured when someone
accidentally delete a directory contained some
installed RPM packages.  I try to rpm -e package-names.  I killed that
process because it was taking too long. Anyone know what may
be the problem and how to fix it?  Thanks in advance.

Default local_umask is 077 which is exactly what you want. There is also
"anon_umask" for anonymous uploads in case you have them enabled. It
also defaults to 077.

Depending on what you need to do, this isn't an issue.  Most of the

Apache 2.0 is still bleeding-edge, especially with support for things
like PHP.  Many modules haven't even been ported to 2.0 yet.

Sendmail is up to 8.11 in the AS2.1 updates directory.  There's nothing
wrong with this as a stable mailer - in fact, we're at 8.11.6 on our
production SMTP servers at work, and they're still running 6.2.  The
darn thing just works and works and works.

I would expect to see new features and versions in the 3.0 release.
Things like Apache 2.0, Python 2.2, etc. should be more stable by then
and suitable for a production rollout.

All that said, ES/AS are perfectly positioned for many production server
applications *today*.  They're built on stable technologies and
versions and have had security patches applied.  I, for one, am not
going to be upgrading a dozen servers at work every year since it's
actually cheaper for me to run ES and patch it than it is to spend the
time doing OS upgrades.

Like all products from all vendors, your mileage will vary.  What's
appropriate for me may not be appropriate for you.

Re: Practice Exams

2003-03-14 Thread Bildo0422

As another person interested in one day getting the RHCE (and maybe what he was getting at) what would one study and work with in a lab environment to gain the experience needed to pass the exam. Is it just on the core commands and job tasks you would perform to maintain RH machines? Should I be able to answer all the questions that come across this list before I try to take the test? Excuse my ignorance I was raised in the technology world as a Microsoft baby.

Thanks!

no, you can't pass by book alone, but that still doesn't mean that
a book is entirely useless.  at the very least, any *decent* exam
prep book (regardless of the topic) will give you some guidance
about the areas that you should be relatively familiar with, that's
all.

regarding RHCE books, i haven't seen any i'm thrilled with.
why not just go to www.redhat.com, copy the list of topics that
are allegedly covered, and start researching them, one at a time?

Default local_umask is 077 which is exactly what you want. There is also
"anon_umask" for anonymous uploads in case you have them enabled. It
also defaults to 077.

I was getting lockups for awhile on shutdown like you.  Matrox adviced me to
*not* use DRI with Xinerama.  I don't know if it has to do with Xinerama itself
or the beta, v0.21, Matrox Parhelia drivers.  

The rumor mill says that new Matrox drivers may be released Today.  Don't know
for sure but I am pretty sure they will be out within the next couple of weeks.
 Hopefully, Today!

So what are these new distributions?  Other than costing more, is ES

ES is *NOT* 8.1.  AS really is the former AS.  ES is essentially AS
without the clustering pieces.  WS is the workstation install of AS/ES
but has most of the server components removed.
.. which is still based on Red Hat 7.2. With 8.1 well on it's way, the 
technology is nearing 1.5 years dated. According to a CNET story, Enterprise 
(AS/ES/WS) 3.0 is scheduled to be released later this year. I'm curious as 
to whether it will be an Bluecurve/8.x derivitive, or still based on 7.x 
architecture (2.1 is based on RH 7.2). Reason for the curiosity is because 
Red Hat stated that anything certified (i.e. Oracle, etc.) to run on one 
version will run on another. Phoebe testers all discovered that they changed 
a threading model which broke alot of legacy apps (w/o passing the kernel 
env. variable first), but opened the doors for improvements in future 
applications. Would such changes be implemented in the Enterprise model?

I would expect that most businesses will want to go to ES for their
typical mail and DNS servers and is what I'll be doing with my 10+
Linux systems at work (currently running from 6.1 to 7.3).  A few
enterprises will want the clustering pieces and put AS in the mix.
Those who are rolling out production Linux desktops may want AW.
I don't think I'd want to deploy Production Desktop Linux systems based on 
AW until it adopts the more IMHO user friendly Bluecurve theme. I find 8.x 
to be far more beginner friendly than any 7.x distro.

And as for production servers, I tend to prefer the more leading (but not 
bleeding) edge versions (Sendmail 8.12, Apache 2.x, etc.) largely for their 
improved feature set. You won't find that immediately in the Enterprise 
versions.

If 3.0 is more 8.x like, I think I'd consider deploying it. Until then, I'll 
stick with my once per year upgrading. Kickstart makes that simple enough 
anyway, especially if you maintain similar hardware across your network.

R: Running OutlookXP On Linux...

2003-03-14 Thread Leonardo Diciolla

Well,
Maybe you do pretend too much from Wine. You cannot run some really
heavvy apps like oultlookXP. You could berely run Office 6 wich is still
a good compromise but very lite in respect the XP suite. I recall I was
running Office 6 on Solaris 2.0 with an earlier version of wine (three
years ago).

Hope it helps.

This would probably be the same as running pretty much any Win App on a

I'm using RH 8.0, Wine is set to load by default. How hard is it, or is
it even possible to install things like OutlookXP (2003) or other
Windows apps? I mean, I know it's supposed to be possible with Wine, but
how practical is it?

acroread seems to have problems with redhat internationalisation,
specifying LANG=C enviroment variable lets it run ok for me.

Adobe acrobat reader and RH 8.0

2003-03-14 Thread Peter N. Spotts

Folks,

I've recently installed Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0.6 from Adobe's site and
find that when I try to run it it fails to open, giving me an error
measage, to wit: 

Warning:charset "UTF-8" not supported, using "ISO8859-1".
Aborted

Is this telling me that I don't have ISO... fonts on my machine, that
Acriread just can't find them, or what? How can I fix this glitch?

Best regards,

Mine DEFINITELY doesn't look like yours - and it points me in the
direction that I think I need to go. I fought with it a bit this
morning, but my syntax was WAY off.

The card I'm using is a dual-head also (nVidia MMX440) so now I have
something to try. :)

What kind of problems are you having and which desktop are you using?

To enable Xinerama just add the following line to the ScreenLayout

You need to be 100% sure that myuser can't download from the incoming
directory or he'll be able to turn your server into a pirate site.  You
also need to be 100% sure he can't change permissions on the incoming
and outgoing directory - by default, users can change permissions on
their own files.

Hello list
I am interested in kind of mimicking windows Active Directory.  I am
interested in isolating/securing several parent/child domains, but need to
set up a few trusted domains.  From the research I have been doing I think
that if I run samba and LDAP I can get pretty close.  Or am I barking up the
wrong tree?  Or is there any software out there that will allow directory
services for mostly win clients with Linux domain controllers?

> I'm about to configure a similar box. If you would, please post that 
> configuration to the list.

Here's a brief overview:
1.  Create the accounts chroot'ed and restrict the shell to ftponly.
 /usr/sbin/groupadd -g $NEWUID $NEWUSER
 /usr/sbin/groupadd -g $NEWFTPGID $NEWFTPGRPNAME /usr/sbin/useradd -d $NEWDIR/./pub -g 
$NEWUID -G ftp$NEWUSER -M -s
/usr/local/bin/ftponly -u $NEWUID $NEWUSER

In our case, a typical home directory would /cust/foo/./pub.  wu-ftpd
will end up enforcing those. ftponly is destributed with wu-ftpd.   We
create all the customer accounts with a gid>1.

2. Create /cust/foo/pub/upload and /cust/foo/pub/download.

3. Create /cust/foo/etc, /cust/foo/bin, /cust/foo/lib.  These contain
everything the user needs to run and *must* be present.  Remember, these
accounts are chroot'ed so they do not have access to /bin, /usr/bin,
etc.

4.  Add some good stuff to /etc/ftpaccess.  You must read the
documentation on this since there are lots of ways you can get it wrong.
Here are some key entries in mine:
guestgroup %1-1
upload  /cust/*/*   *   no
upload  /cust/*/*   /pub/upload yes * * 2770
noretrieve  /cust/*/bin
noretrieve  /cust/*/etc
noretrieve  /cust/*/lib
noretrieve relative /pub/upload
path-filter  guest  /etc/pathmsg  ^[-A-Za-z0-9_\.]*$  ^\.  ^-

There are entries in ftpaccess that restrict whether or not you want
your users to be able to rename and delete files or not.

NOTE:  there is a Guest HOWTO at http://www.wu-ftpd.org.  Read it.
Memorize it.  Your system security depends on you getting your setup
right.  Never allow a user to download a file that's been uploaded
unless you manually move it first.  If you do, then you've just turned
your server into a potential pirate site.

In recent versions of wu-ftpd, there are nicer ways to chroot an account
than the /./ construct and that will eliminate the requirement for the
bin, lib, and etc directories.  Use them if you can since it will save
you a bit of hassle in the long run (like having 500 copies of tar in
your file system that all need to be updated to fix a security hole).

Cheers,
.../Ed

Thanks to Steven and a lot of digging I have this working 99% - the only

all be working. :)

Here's what I did:

RE: a question about shell script

2003-03-14 Thread Terry Hobart

You can use the shift example below to get rid of the first parameter. Then
at that point the $# will give you the number of parameters left. Then you
can loop thru the remaining parameters $1, $2, ... to the second to last one
$# - 1.  That should give you what you want.

I am no script expert. I just got the idea from a book I bought (recommended
on this list). "Portable Shell Programming" by Bruce Blin.  It is a good and
easy read with plenty of explained examples.

Good luck

Terry

First I created a user , lets call him myuser with no shell access
I pointed his home directory to /var/ftp/myuser ( I created the myuser dir
first)
I then added myuser to vsftpd.chroot_list so he only has access to
/var/ftp/myuser
I changed group for myuser to be ftp
I left owner as root
Inside /var/ftp/myuser I created the following directories: incoming and
outgoing
For the incoming directory I allowed write access by changing owner to
myuser
For the outgoing directory I only allowed read access.


Now this does what I want it to do, but I am not sure how "secure" this is.

up2date: copying authentication information from one system to another

I'm trying to add a system not under my control to my RHN account -
we've got an extra subscription and one of our remote offices would like
to use it.  What I'd like to do is give the remote office the encrypted
username/password information so that they can run up2date but not have
access to any of my current system information via the web.  Is this
do-able?  The username seems to be in /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid but
the password doesn't seem to be there.  There's a long checksum string,
but that's not constant between the systems I've already got registered
on the same account.

Any ideas for how to approach this?

Thanks,

First time install...

2003-03-14 Thread Ron Pugh

Hi people. 

I just bought RH8 Personal. I have two computers, one of which I'd like to install it on:
1. P4, 1.8Ghz, 256 MB, 30GB hd, onboard audio & video (Intel Extreme Video, shared memory). This computer is pretty new. Has WinXP Home on it.
2. P3 600Mhz, 384MB, 20GB hd, GeForce3 Ti200 64 MB, onboard audio. This computer is about 3 years old, has Win98SE on it.
I would rather install to the P4, is the onboard video going to give me a problems with Xfree/86?
Thanks!

Problem implementing quotas

2003-03-14 Thread Patricia Castañeda

I`m having problems with the activation of quotas. I need to have active
quotas on filesystems /var ( users spool mail) and /home (users home
directorys), but when execute convertquota says that I have old format
(I supose that convertquota is for that), and quotacheck says that don`t
exists the file quotas (don´t create it, I understand that quotacheck
create the quota.user or aquota.user).

I have RedHat 8.0,  kernel 2.4.18-14smp and  quota-3.06-5. I installed
from RPMs.
The filesystems are ext2.

FTP

I am currently working on setting up our company FTP server. What we are
looking for is to set it up with a specified username/password that only our
distributors have access to. I would like to create 2 directories. The first
one would be a directory that would allow them to upload files (need write
access) and another directory that is read-only. My server is running RH 8
and uses vsftpd. I have read various ways of setting this up, but I am new
to Linux and don't really understand which is the best way. Is it best to
create a user  and just have them access the home directory? I want
to allow them to upload, but not rename or delete any of the directories
etc. How should I go about this? I know there are similar posts in here
about vsftp but not sure how they apply to my situation.

Possibility #1: You did something wrong; I remember this working well.

Possibility #2: Instead of commenting out the DAEMON_OPTIONS line, leave
the one for localhost intact and create a second line for eth0. Don't
remember the exact format, but someone told me this worked.

All hearsay, but pretty decent hearsay at least.

RE: Recover Raid 5 of Red Hat 7.3

2003-03-14 Thread Hong Tian

In Raid 5, if one of disks is failure, the system can still work
continually. Then how do I know which disk is failure? By hardware Raid 5, I
can replace the bad disk by plug in a new good disk. How about software Raid
5 in Red Hat 7.3? Could I just plug in the spare and the system will rebuilt
the data from the parity bits from the other disks automatically? What are
the commands to process it? Where can I find the documentation about
recovering software Raid 5 on Red Hat 7.3? Thanks a lot.

The idea of RAID-5 is to survive this. Assuming you've only lost one disk
then you should be able to plug in the spare and they system should
rebuilt the data from the paratiy bits on the other disks.

SV: problem with KPPP shortcut on desktop (and prompting for root password)

2003-03-14 Thread Marie-Thérèse Lorentzen

You are right, the "case case" was not the problem.
Andrew Rokicki from the Redhat Install list found the solution to the
problem. I'll copy his solution for anyone else who might have run into the
same problem.

On Thu, 2003-03-13 at 20:47, Rokicki, Andrew wrote:

Yes it did!! :)

And for anyone who might have run into the problem of KPPP prompting user
for root password, the solution (which also came from Andrew Rokicki) is the
following:

Follow these instructions:
http://kb.redhat.com/view.php?eid=29

This is from redhat:
There are two ways to the keep kppp from asking for a root password. They
are:
1. Change the following line in the file /etc/pam.d/kppp from:
#auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_rootok.so
to:
auth  sufficient /lib/security/pam_permit.so
2) Edit the file /etc/pam.d/kppp and change the word rootok to permit.

KPPP is now working without any problems.

Emne: Re: problem with KPPP shortcut on desktop

With RH8.0 I use the modem_light_applet which works just fine.
I don't think that the "case case" (Uppercase vs LowerCase) could be the
problem since I think "Name" parameters are just used for display only.

   I'm very new to RH 8.0. I'm just now stepped up from the install list to
   RH list. I don't work with programming on a daily basis, though I do
   understand some of the basics - I'm actually a nurse by profession - so
   there is a lot in the Redhat/linux world I don't know. So please bear
   with me if some of my questions in the future seem "stupid". I someone
   who likes to try new things and experiment a little bit. I'm in the
   learning mode:)

   The problem I want deal with right now is a little thing.

   Seems like I'm not the only one to get an error message when using the
   KPPP link on the desktop (as well as the taskbar). Someone by the name
   of Nicola posted the following back in January - she described the
   problem well, so I've simply copied that part of her message:

   "the connection works, but anytime I close kppp, I receive an error
   message like "KDEInit could not launch 'kppp'" (and while I'm
   connected, desktop icons desappear and come back only when I close
   kppp!). The weird thing is that this error occurs only when I run kppp
   from a desktop link, and never is running from the menu. (the error
   NEVER occurs if logged as root)."

   Did this problem get resolved?

   When I looked into the "kde-Kppp.desktop"
   file, I noticed that KPPP was also written Kppp and kppp.

   BinaryPattern=kppp;
   Name=KPPP
   Name[af]=kppp
   Name[eo]=Interretkonektilo
   Name[sv]=Kppp
   Name[xx]=xx
   MimeType=
   DocPath=kppp/index.html
   Exec=kppp %i %m
   Icon=kppp

   Could it possibly be related to that?

   Any help is much appreciated.

   The 'mount' command doesn't  automatically recognize vfat or msdos
filesytems, but does ext2; see:

 man mount

   But, if you have an /etc/filesystems file, 'mount' will read the
filesystem types listed from there and "try" to correctly decipher if
what you're trying to mount is one of those. 
   It seems to work well enough on my RH 7.0 machine.
   My /etc/filesystems file:

  ext2
  nodev proc
  nodev devpts
  iso9660
  vfat
  hfs

   Check out the documentation for details.


   Best,

   Tom

not call the sendmail program.

By the way, when /etc/init.d/sendmail is executed, it starts TWO
programs: sendmail and sm-client. What is the second one? Maybe
this is the problem? Someone at RedHat.com must know this, I think,
so if someone reads it...

Now I want to summarize a working and a NOT working environment
(just for those who asked me about it):


The following config is working:
(OurLocalDomain.de is our local (not internet) domain with
192.168.1.x addresses)

RedHat 7.1, sendmail-8.11.6, daemon not running, sendmail.mc reads
as follows (and is of course compiled that way):


DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')
dnl FEATURE(`accept_unresolvable_domains')dnl
dnl FEATURE(`relay_based_on_MX')dnl
MAILER(smtp)dnl
MAILER(procmail)dnl
CwOurLocalDomain.de


access reads as follows (standard, I think):

localhost.localdomain   RELAY
localhost   RELAY
127.0.0.1   RELAY

All other files (virtusertable, domaintable, local-host-names,
mailertable) are empty.

Again: this config is working properly, I can send email to
local and (as there is an alias root -> [EMAIL PROTECTED]
in aliases) send email to our real mail exchanging server.


Now the following config is NOT working:

RedHat 8.0, sendmail-8.12.8, daemon not running, sendmail.mc/cf
as follows (I changed it like the one above and recompiled):

I have included everything which is not like the above redhat 7.1
config.


define(`confTRUSTED_USER', `smmsp')dnl
define(`confTO_IDENT', `0')dnl
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl
LOCAL_DOMAIN(`localhost.localdomain')dnl
dnl FEATURE(`accept_unresolvable_domains')dnl
dnl FEATURE(`relay_based_on_MX')dnl
MAILER(smtp)dnl
MAILER(procmail)dnl
CwOurLocalDomain.de


Access is the same as on the 7.1 box, all other files are
also empty.

Bye

Daniel

I can't speak of behalf of redhat, but personally I don't see how programs
like cronjobs, mail, etc... could send an e-mail without an MTA running (at
least listening) on the box.

Are you sure your previous RH systems were not configured to have sendmail
run under xinetd instead of as a daemon???

Re: RH8 crashes every couple of days

2003-03-14 Thread bollu


Maybe your system is not completely locked and you can still open another
login session with CTRL-ALT-F1...7. And then find the locked process with
"ps -eaf" and "kill"?


   Every couple of days, my RH8 system locks up.  I used to think it was
   the
   GNOME screensaver, so I disabled that, but last night it locked up
   again.
   Could it be my graphics driver (i845 driver i downloaded from Intel)?

   Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

check /etc/hosts.allow
Do you have either one of the lines:

ALL: LOCAL
or 
swat: LOCAL

This is for tcpwrapper filtering.

Re: problem with KPPP shortcut on desktop

2003-03-14 Thread bollu


With RH8.0 I use the modem_light_applet which works just fine.
I don't think that the "case case" (Uppercase vs LowerCase) could be the
problem since I think "Name" parameters are just used for display only.



   I'm very new to RH 8.0. I'm just now stepped up from the install list to
   RH list. I don't work with programming on a daily basis, though I do
   understand some of the basics - I'm actually a nurse by profession - so
   there is a lot in the Redhat/linux world I don't know. So please bear
   with me if some of my questions in the future seem "stupid". I someone
   who likes to try new things and experiment a little bit. I'm in the
   learning mode:)

   The problem I want deal with right now is a little thing.

   Seems like I'm not the only one to get an error message when using the
   KPPP link on the desktop (as well as the taskbar). Someone by the name
   of Nicola posted the following back in January - she described the
   problem well, so I've simply copied that part of her message:

   "the connection works, but anytime I close kppp, I receive an error
   message like "KDEInit could not launch 'kppp'" (and while I'm
   connected, desktop icons desappear and come back only when I close
   kppp!). The weird thing is that this error occurs only when I run kppp
   from a desktop link, and never is running from the menu. (the error
   NEVER occurs if logged as root)."

   Did this problem get resolved?

   When I looked into the "kde-Kppp.desktop"
   file, I noticed that KPPP was also written Kppp and kppp.

   
   BinaryPattern=kppp;
   Name=KPPP
   Name[af]=kppp
   Name[eo]=Interretkonektilo
   Name[sv]=Kppp
   Name[xx]=xx
   MimeType=
   DocPath=kppp/index.html
   Exec=kppp %i %m
   Icon=kppp
   

   Could it possibly be related to that?

   Any help is much appreciated.
   Marie-Thérèse

Re: xinetd won't restart

In your case, if "/etc/init.d/xinetd restart" or "service xinetd
restart" fails to start xinetd, you got to check the log file for an
error message. If xinetd starts with "[  OK  ]", but the enabled
service can't be connected to, I would also take a look at the log
file, but additionally verify whether xinetd is listening on the
desired port (with netstat or socklist or ...).

Config ids are the alpha-numerical alias names for a numerical port
number as found in /etc/services. In the following, "swat" is a
config id and at the same time tells xinetd to listen on port
901/tcp:

  service swat
  {
  # ...
  }

Obviously, xinetd can't run distinct services on the same port.
That's why these config ids must be unique. You can't have more than
one xinetd config file for service "swat". It would complain in the
log file.

The second case where xinetd would refuse to start a service is when
you tell it explicitly to bind more than one service to the same
address/port. For instance:

# /etc/xinetd.d/service1
service pop3
{
port = 110
# ...
}

# /etc/xinetd.d/service2
service pop2
{
port = 110
# POP2 would normally be port 109.
# ...
}

This would be a mistake, because it could not run two services on
port 110. It would refuse to enable either one and complain in the
log file.
