highpoint rocketraid 133 kernel crash

2003-04-04 Thread Farkas Levente
hi,
after I see in the kernel changelog that the 2.4.20 kernel already 
support HPT372A chipset I try to install rh 9's kernel to one of our rh 
8.0 machine in which we have 4 HP rocketraid 133 adapter card. until now 
I use a custom kernel (drived from rh's src.rpm, remove all HPT support,
compile HPT's opensource driver and use hdx=noprobe for all ide drive 
to prevent lost interrupt). now with the new kernel-2.4.20-8 the lost 
interrupt disapear, the ide drives and the raid are working for a few 
minutes, but after that the kernel stops for a few second, gives a 
registry dump (and some sort error message about ide-dma error). so IMHO 
it still better to use the hpt's deriver and disable the mainstream 
kernel's hpt support.

Hi,

I have been trying to get sound and sound recorder working on my system
for almost a month now. However there has been very little luck in it. The
sound card is detected by the system and I am able to hear mp3 using XMMS.
I am also able to hear .au and .wav files. However whenever I try to make

I have searched through the net and read many HOWTO documents but my
problem still presists. Any help would be really appreciated,

imho, you didn't need to if you only want accessing shares in nt box from

try this (you *must* has valid nt account) :

mount -t smbfs //ntbox/shares -o username=yourntusername

hi babar,

these lcp messages are probably the result of a bad username/password
combination.

-verify that your provider is supporting pap
-verify that /etc/ppp/pap-secrets and /etc/ppp.chap-secrets are double
verified
-try adding the following to your /etc/modules/conf

alias /dev/ppp ppp_generic
alias char-major-108 ppp_generic
alias tty-ldisc-3 ppp_async
alias tty-ldisc-14 ppp_synctty
alias ppp-compress-21 bsd_comp
alias ppp-compress-24 ppp_deflate
alias ppp-compress-26 ppp_deflate


these lines should your lcp properly negotiate compression  ...

and try it again!

hi all, 

i was diddling with such a requirement a while back, and found rolodap
(http://rolodap.sourceforge.net). it has a web interface to an address
book stored in ldap. 

it has been a while since, but I seem to remember that window's
implementation of a real lookup/ldap client made it difficult to deploy.
for example, having the contacts populated from the ldap server. i'd be
curious if how ximian would work with it ... i have not tried yet. 
I used ldap-abook to update LDAP entries for Windows clients. Outlook98's 
LDAP support was flaky in the Corporate Mail configuration. In the 
Internet configuration, and in later versions of Outlook, it works pretty 
good. Outlook Express from that same time period (version 4?) had pretty 
decent support for LDAP too.

Even so, I ended up using a custom web interface that basically dumped the 
entire entry into an HTML textbox so I could update and add arbitrary 
attributes. It was easier than living within the confines of any something 
like ldap-abook. At the time, rolodap was not far enough along to be useful.

These days I use GQ http://biot.com/gq/.

SiI 3112 SATA Raid Controller

2003-04-04 Thread Thomas Tolborg
Hello

I would like to know how to install redhat 9 on a system with SiI 3112 
Raid controller.
I have created my raid array in the SiI 3112 configuration. But it seems 
that Redhat 9 don't have drivers for this controller. Redhat 9 just 
treats my disks as two seperate disks.

I can see on http://www.siimage.com homepage that linux is actually a 
supported os, but I can't seem to find drivers or anything that will 
help me.

The SiI 3112 controller is onboard on an ASUS P4G8X motherboard. ASUS 
don't have drivers for the controller either.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Thomas Tolborg

RE: BitTorrent Speeds (Was :Stop the disinformation! (Was Re: Download Redhat 9 right now )

2003-04-04 Thread Ward William E DLDN
Sorry about the top header, I'm stuck using a bad client at the moment a web
based client, just for today).

Strangely enough, I would have thought so too, but I think PART of the issue
may have been that when I first fired up the BT client, I was NOT forwarding
port 6881.  I did that AFTER the client was up (and it didn't seem to help),
but it did start allowing me to be a sharer at that point.

However, within an hour of the addendum being sent, I suddenly started
getting ~100Kbs downloads and it completed within about 45 minutes now,
I'm supplying a steady 30 up (why only 30, I don't know, unless it's set to
only use a small percentage; I have normally had no trouble maintaining
100Kbs uploads, have seen peaks up to 400) to something like 60 people...
doing my share, too :)

It's GOT to be a coincidence, because a number of folks indicated that they
were still up, and I should have been able to draw on the original BT
source... unless somehow the original source was being fed to dialups or
something?  If that was the case, the dialups might have been doling out to
folks, which would account for the missing bandwidth.

Ok.  I put mine back up but if your having problems because no one is

packets being pulled from the original source.  If you check the MRTG 
graphs for the originating tracker/downloader point, you will see that
the traffic is down at 0.30 Gb/s (and the link is capable of 1.38 Gb/s).
Based on the graphs, I think you have some other problem causing the

RE: Sluggish BitTorrent (Was RE: Stop the disinformation!)

2003-04-04 Thread Ward William E DLDN
Personally, I'm running an uncapped, async speed full duplex cablemodem (a
bit rare, but I choose the modem carefully with an eye to finding a full
duplex modem.. most cablemodems are half duplex).  Top speed downloads have
peaked at over 800 kbs though 500 is more realistic to expect normally.
Uploads vary quite a bit, but I don't have problems sustaining 200-300, and
can earily peak at 400 or somewhat more.  Typically I get ~1/2 to ~2/3 of my
current download speed for my upload speed.  Not bad for $50/month US
(though some might get slightly higher performance... when I first got the
setup, I could occasionally pull just under 1Mbs speeds, close to the limit
of the 10bT interface on my firewall).

 My download speed was wildly inconsistent, varying between 5K/s and
 170K/s.  I restarted it today (after Ward's request) and even upload
 speeds vary quite a bit (12K/s to over 40K/s).  I suspect it has a lot
 to do with how the file is downloaded.  If you are trying to get a
part
 of the file that not many other people have already gotten, then it
 seems likely that your download will slow.

Out of curiousity, what version of BT are you using?  What type of 
connection are you using?

I'm using v3.2.1b on a heavily used T3 and still getting uploads of 
700KB/s.  When I downloaded Tuesday morning it was running around
600KB/s.

if your machine supports the el torito protocol (boots a cd) the it will

Re: Built-in Harware RAID on RH 8/9

2003-04-04 Thread Joe Polk
I have no experience with Promise cards, but I have used Compaq and HP cards 
with RH using RAID 5. I'm not sure why you're seeing both HD's but perhaps 
someone can address that. As to hardware vs. software, it's always faster to 
use hardware because the management of the RAID set is offloaded to the card. 
This frees up Linux' resources for other things like whatever you built it 
for. :)

Subject: Built-in Harware RAID on RH 8/9

 Hello, 
 
   I recently bough a motherboard ( Gigabyte 7VAXP Ultra ) with a Promise
 Raid 0,1 card on board. I tried to set up the BIOS to use my two 15gb
 disks as one Raid 0 device, but the redhat installer only saw it as two
 drives. The manual says that you have to install windows drivers, but
 makes no mention about linux. Software drivers make a certain amount 
 of sense, but one would think that linux would have drivers for such 
 a common piece of hardware.
   
   Has anyone here had ANY experience setting up on-board raid, or with
 the Promise Raid itself??
 
   Also right now I am using linux software raid 0. Is there a real speed
 improvement going from no raid, to software raid, to hardware raid? 
 Id appreciate any help.
 
 Cheers,
 Ryan

I've been trying to get this done for the last year or so. The only success
I've found is when using VMWare with a full Windows install to support
AutoCAD, but unless you got plenty of RAM, performance sucks.

The Wine web site (http://www.wine-hq.com) has a database of supported apps.
I just checked it, and there are some guys who claim they have been able to
get R14 to run and 2000 with some installation problems, though I haven't

Promise raid cards aren't really raid cards - they fake it by making the
OS drivers do all the work.  From everything I've read, with Linux
you're better off letting the OS do software raid and ignoring the
Promise drivers completely.  Configure the software raid during the
install - Disk Druid makes it relatively painless.

   Also right now I am using linux software raid 0. Is there a real speed
 improvement going from no raid, to software raid, to hardware raid? Id

It really depends on what you're doing.  For typical desktop work, I
doubt that you'd see much of an improvement with striping, and you're
doubling the chance of a total data loss - if either drive fails, both
are effectively gone.

I have a lot of raid experience - going back about 13 years on multiple
platforms - and still hate striping.  Rarely do you get what you think
you're getting.  I am a big fan of mirroring and other data redundancy
methods (raid 0+1, 3, 5, etc.) and those have saved me time and time
again.  At work I even software mirror my raid-5 sets and that's saved
me too - yes, you can get double-disk faults on the same raidset at the
same time.  My wife's system at home has a Promise raid controller and
we use that to mirror the data - not stripe - but she runs Windows.  I
haven't seen what happens if a drive dies though (and hope I don't).

Re: Installing Curses.pm on Red Hat 8.0

2003-04-04 Thread Bruno Negrao
Hi everybody, I found myself the solution. To install Curses 1.06 with my
perl-5.8.0-55, i need a patch for the Curses package.
First, I  made a search on www.rmpfind.net  for the string 'perl-Curses' and
I found various rpm and src.rpm packages of it, mostly for mandrake. So, I
downloaded the perl-Curses-1.06-5mdk.src.rpm package, and installed it.
I tried the 'rpmbuild -ba perl-Curses-specfile' but it didn't work, so, I
went to the /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES where I found the patch:
Curses-1.06-fix-Perl_sv_isa.patch.bz2. I uncompressed it with bunzip2 and
applied it against my own
Curses-1.06.tar.gz package that I downloaded from CPAN.
Curses compiled and installed fine.

Order for ethernet card detection problem RH 9

2003-04-04 Thread Eduardo Silva
I was kind of thinking the subject for this one a bit:

Anyways, I've got a laptop which has a Xircom Cardbus PCMCIA card for 
Ethernet and Modem connection. Works perfect with xircom_cb module. Gets 
added in /etc/modules.conf as alias eth0 xircom_cb. Up to now everything 
great. Then I use the docking station at work, which has a 3COM 3C59x 
card. It gets detected at first boot as eth1 and consequently, gets 
added to /etc/modules.conf as alias eth1 3c59x. Also works great.

Problem is at reboot. Apparently I have seen in dmesg:

02:08.0: 3Com PCI 3c905C Tornado at 0xfc00. Vers LK1.1.18-ac
00:b0:d0:89:1b:92, IRQ 10
 product code  rev 00.14 date 09-22-00
 Internal config register is 180, transceivers 0xa.
 8K byte-wide RAM 5:3 Rx:Tx split, autoselect/Autonegotiate interface.
 MII transceiver found at address 24, status 782d.
 Enabling bus-master transmits and whole-frame receives.
02:08.0: scatter/gather enabled. h/w checksums enabled
divert: allocating divert_blk for eth0
and then a bit later:

divert: allocating divert_blk for eth1
eth1: Xircom cardbus revision 3 at irq 11
So the cards are detected and named in the wrong order, eth0 for the 
3COM and eth1 for the XIRCOM. This basically causes mayhem and RH will 
not activate them on boot or on redhat-config-network or ifconfig saying 
that /etc/modules.conf has incorrectly loaded eth0 with xircom_cb 
instead of the 3c9x it should, and so forth for eth 1.

Only way around this I've found (I'm a newbie) is to delete all net 
config using redhat network tool, and readd both NICs in the order of 
detection. This however causes problems when I use the laptop undocked, 
again because eth0 is detected as xircom_cb, although /etc/modules.conf 
(at this point) has it against 3c90x.

Anyone knows how I can fix this? Was working in RH8.0, stopped when I 
loaded Phoebe and now the same is happening in RH 9.

Thanks for any help,

Eduardo.

Package Manager

2003-04-04 Thread Richard Humphrey
Coming mainly from a Mandrake background I have noticed that the RH8.0
package manager is severely lacking in functionality compared to that of
Mandrake. In Mandrake now for several versions, I could install and
uninstall virtually any RPM (via the GUI package manager) that was added to
the system regardless of whether or not it was included on the CDROM. I have
not seen this functionality in RH 8.0. Am I missing it, or is it simply not
there? It seems only the packages from the CD are listed in the package
manager. I know that I can manually remove them from the command line, but
thought that if RedHats aim was to be more user friendly, that it would
include this functionality.

There are three reasons we keep Windows boxes at the office:

I don't think AutoCAD may work properly under emulation. You may try 
VariCAD for Linux as a replacement. BTW, you may want to take a look at

Viewing Partitions

2003-04-04 Thread Tim Willis
I've forgotten the command line for viewing all the partitions and their
sizes.

Also, I think I've screwed up the partitions on my Dell server, for some
reason, / is only about 500mb.  I don't remember setting it this way, I
thought I set / to fill the rest of the free space, which was over
150gig.  I installed Real Server into /realserver, and was trying to
archive some pretty big real media files there, thinking I had the full
150g to work with, and found out that I didn't.

I guess I have two options, remove the /realserver installation, and
install it somewhere else, or link the archive directories under
/realserver to another path where there's more size?

Still, I don't know why / would be so small.  Frankly, I'm leaning on
re-installing instead of linking.  Something in me doesn't like the
convoluted-ness of linking directories...anyone else have any better
ideas?

Thanks,

Re: netvault

2003-04-04 Thread Dylan Baxter
Well as far as the backup script, the first thing I would suspect is a
permissions issue. If NetVault is the utility that is running the start
script after backup, then the script is running as either a NetVault user
(this I do not know) or the system. You may try setting the SUID bit on the
script to run as root if you haven't already.
On the SCSI card issue, I'm afraid I cant help ya there. I've never seen
this problem before, but if it works once, then subsequently fails, I would
try to verify the backup to ensure that is is even working correctly the
first time. There may be a problem with the SCSI card module?

'Hope this helps!

Subject: RE: netvault


 This is the first problem.  I have set the backup to stop and start a
 service /etc/init.d/atria.  The stop works and the backup commences to
 success, but When it tries to start the startup script it fails.  It has
 failed many ways, depending on how I right the script.  It either starts
the
 service and then just hangs (NetVault that is).  The job does not finish
and
 I have to abort the job.  The technical people have given me many ideas
 but they have not helped.  The script does work if I run it on it's own.
 Here is the script as I ran it last night.  I started using bash and the
 support suggested c-shell.  They also suggested the
 /usr/Netvault6/util/shexec part and the exit 0.

 #!/bin/tcsh


 ###
 # script for starting services after backup

 /usr/Netvault6/util/shexec /etc/init.d/atria start

 exit 0

 The second problem is when the program tries to start a backup it IDs a
 blank tape as BAD and then fails.  The error message points to the scsi
 card.  I reboot the server and NetVault sees the BLANK tape as BLANK
and
 I can do a backup.  Last night I even manually kicked off the backup
myself
 and it was fine.
 Have you seen any of these problems?  The scsi may not be NetVault.  I am
 just trying to narrow this one down to something.

 I can send more info and logs.  Just seeing if anyone has any ideas.

  I don't remember setting it this way, I
 thought I set / to fill the rest of the free space, which was over
 150gig.

You should use /home for the rest of the disk, imho (again).
Seperating data from operating system allows you to manage 
more effectively.

  I installed Real Server into /realserver, and was trying to
 archive some pretty big real media files there, thinking I had the full
 150g to work with, and found out that I didn't.
 
 I guess I have two options, remove the /realserver installation, and
 install it somewhere else, or link the archive directories under
 /realserver to another path where there's more size?

I install 3rd party software into /usr/local. If you make that a
separate partition then you can preserve data and applications over
reinstalls.

 
 Still, I don't know why / would be so small.  Frankly, I'm leaning on
 re-installing instead of linking.  Something in me doesn't like the
 convoluted-ness of linking directories...anyone else have any better
 ideas?

I'd reinstall and have a sensible partioning scheme.

Upgrading from 7.2 to 8.0

2003-04-04 Thread Mike Westkamper
Greetings

I have a quite old Intel Server that's been running linux for some time. It
has dual-scsi on the motherboard, no IDE. The current version is 7.2. I want
to upgrade to 8.0. The system is old enough that it doesn't boot from CD.
When I try to boot from FDD or the network it doesn't recognize the SCSI.
Apparently 7.3 did. Any suggestions how I may make the FDD or NET boot
recognize the SCSI adapters?

I did search the RH site to try to find some solution, without luck.

Thanks in advance...

Mike

But you are expecting an app designed and built for RH 8 would work on RH 9.
Given that so much has changed in RH 9, give Ximian some time to rebuild and
I am sure they will offer what you need. I mean RH 9.0 hasnt even been
released to the general public yet so give them some time. Do you expect RH
to examine the previous versions of literally thousands of programs to see
if they are backwards compatible? They are only going to guarantee the
packages they ship with will work.

RE: new Redhat 9 and Red-carpet

2003-04-04 Thread Richard Crawford
I just had this vision of Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons blurting out,
Worst distro ever!

Seriously, though, this argument seems specious to me.  I use Ximian and
Red Hat and I'm pretty happy with the combination (though I think Ximian
was more stable on RH 7.2 than it is on 8.0); but blaming Red Hat for
incompatibilities between Ximian and RH9 is kind of like blaming Ford for
making a new line of cars that isn't compatible with the carburator I like
to use.

The burden of compatibility lies with Ximian in this case.  It's in no way
irresonsible for Red Hat to build a product which they believe is more
stable and better able to meet the needs of its customers, even if some of
those customers are no longer able to use a tool that they like.

Besides, I wonder how many RH customers actually use Ximian?  I'd be
willing to bet that even if all of the Ximians users boycotted Red Hat, it
still wouldn't make much of a dent, if any, in their sales and profits. 
Out of all of the RH users in my LUG, I believe I'm the only one using
Ximian.  Most of the others are using Mozilla or KMail or JPilot or other
tools, and have decided for various reasons not to use Ximian's products.





 So RH9 is a complete solution and has no need to function correctly with
 any outside apps to meet all of the reasonable needs of all who pay them
 money for their OS?

 Ximian didn't change things RH did so it follows that for the sake of

run lsof and look for the lock, e.g. if the file is named INBOX

lsof | grep INBOX

or faster to run fuser in this case

fuser -n file INBOX

terminate whatever processes are using the file and that may fix it.

long term I reccomend changing IMAP servers. My favorite is cyrus(I

 Isn't Ximian Evolution a *very* commonly used app?

Evolution, yes.  Connector, no.

 Are you saying that it is unreasonable to expect RH to test to see if

Nope.

 Are you saying that it's unreasonable to expect RH to provide a minimal
 level of backward compatibility (say perhaps even only *one* level of
 prior release)?

There is a minimal level of backward compatibility.  You are obviously
referring to an app that didn't fall within that minumum.

 No one asked for them to rewrite another company's app but the least
 they could do is to flag incompatibilities *created* by *their* changes
 so the customer may make an *informed* decision to upgrade or not.

Anyway, RH did not rewrite Evolution.  They may have applied a couple
of patches.  The may have recompiled it to run on RH 9 and take
advantage of the new threading code.  Besides Ximian Evolution is open
source, Ximian Connector is not.  RH did take the time to make sure that
commonly used *open source* applications worked on 9.  The did not do
the same for proprietary applications.  To expect them to do so isn't
reasonable.

 Since my office threw Linux out for these reasons I don't face these
 kinds of embarrassing situations any more.  It seems a little more
 sympathy for those who do is in order.

Let me guess, they threw it out in favor of Windows 2000 which isn't
able to run a lot of older apps either.  Makes sense.

 My RH9 arrives soon.  Wonder what else they broke that they *forgot* to
 mention?

If you're concerned about this, then wait to do the upgrade.  That seems
to be the common wisdom and seems reasonable to me.  What features of 9
do you *require* right now that makes the upgrade necessary?  I'll
upgrade at home but you won't hear me bitching if something doesn't
work.  At work I'll probably stay on 8 for a while longer until third
party apps get upgraded to work on 9.

 Sigh ... doc

OT: Open Source in Oregon

2003-04-04 Thread Cliff Wells
Hi All,

This is completely OT, but some here may be interested.

Right now there is a battle in Oregon to get a bill (HB 2892) up for
vote in the House that would require state agencies in Oregon to favor
OSS in favor of proprietary software.  AFAIK, this would be a first (in
the US).

If anyone is interested, you can listen to the realaudio stream of
testimony given yesterday at:

http://www.leg.state.or.us/listn/archive/archive.2003s/HGG-200304030813.ram

It's about an hour long and then trails into testimony on some other
bill.

more info on the bill can be found at:

http://www.mwvlug.org/legislation/index.html

It's too bad this hearing was just testimony, rather than a debate.  The
opposition got to go second and therefore had a chance to address things
mentioned by the bill's proponents but not vice-versa.

pam su-authentication without password

2003-04-04 Thread Maarten
I am currently running a redhat server on which multiple 2 groups of
administrators (lets say group A and group B) are logging in for different
kinds of tasks. I would like to allow both groups to use the su binary to
change into another user.

group a is allowed to su to root
group b is allowed to su to control

If a member of group A is suing to root, I would like him to provide the
root password before he is granted these privileges. If a member of group b
is suing to control, I would like him to gain the control identity, without
having to enter a password first. Members of group b should not be allowed
to su to root.

Now, I am having a bit of a problem to implement these features. With my
current implementation I managed to:
- Allow group a to su to root
- allow group b to su to control
- disallow group b to su to root
Nevertheless, group b still has to enter a password in order to su to
control. I managed to get group b to su to control without a password by
adding the next line to /etc/pam.d/su:
auth   sufficient   /lib/security/pam_wheel.so trust use_uid group=b
however, now group b is also able to su to root without providing a
password, and that is something I definately do not want...

RE: new Redhat 9 and Red-carpet

2003-04-04 Thread Taylor, Bryant
Boy Cliff,

You just love to come on here and Flame people. 

I think the big thing to think about is the fact that for the most part
the Linux Community has been dying to push MS aside in the Desktop
market, but to do that their really needs to be better open/non-open
support when they release their OS. Maybe they should create some
agreements with Ximian.

Evolution, yes.  Connector, no.

 Are you saying that it is unreasonable to expect RH to test to see if

Nope.

 Are you saying that it's unreasonable to expect RH to provide a
minimal
 level of backward compatibility (say perhaps even only *one* level of
 prior release)?

There is a minimal level of backward compatibility.  You are obviously
referring to an app that didn't fall within that minumum.

 No one asked for them to rewrite another company's app but the least
 they could do is to flag incompatibilities *created* by *their*
changes
 so the customer may make an *informed* decision to upgrade or not.

Anyway, RH did not rewrite Evolution.  They may have applied a couple
of patches.  The may have recompiled it to run on RH 9 and take
advantage of the new threading code.  Besides Ximian Evolution is open
source, Ximian Connector is not.  RH did take the time to make sure that
commonly used *open source* applications worked on 9.  The did not do
the same for proprietary applications.  To expect them to do so isn't
reasonable.

 Since my office threw Linux out for these reasons I don't face these
 kinds of embarrassing situations any more.  It seems a little more
 sympathy for those who do is in order.

Let me guess, they threw it out in favor of Windows 2000 which isn't
able to run a lot of older apps either.  Makes sense.

 My RH9 arrives soon.  Wonder what else they broke that they *forgot*
to
 mention?

If you're concerned about this, then wait to do the upgrade.  That seems
to be the common wisdom and seems reasonable to me.  What features of 9
do you *require* right now that makes the upgrade necessary?  I'll
upgrade at home but you won't hear me bitching if something doesn't
work.  At work I'll probably stay on 8 for a while longer until third
party apps get upgraded to work on 9.

 Sigh ... doc

Sigh indeed.

I think you might be interested in the sudo command for at least part of

The man page fopr sudo doesn't quite communicate everything its capable of so 
you would be wise to seek some other sources on the net.

 
 If a member of group A is suing to root, I would like him to provide the
 root password before he is granted these privileges. If a member of group b
 is suing to control, I would like him to gain the control identity, without
 having to enter a password first. Members of group b should not be allowed
 to su to root.
 
 Now, I am having a bit of a problem to implement these features. With my
 current implementation I managed to:
 - Allow group a to su to root
 - allow group b to su to control
 - disallow group b to su to root
 Nevertheless, group b still has to enter a password in order to su to
 control. I managed to get group b to su to control without a password by
 adding the next line to /etc/pam.d/su:
 auth   sufficient   /lib/security/pam_wheel.so trust use_uid group=b
 however, now group b is also able to su to root without providing a
 password, and that is something I definately do not want...

man error

2003-04-04 Thread Kip Cranford
I've installed a new RH 8 workstation recently, and
have noticed the following error when doing

% man exec

This gives:

standard input:15: realpath on `bash.1' failed: No
such file or directory

and then man page is kind of garbled after that.  This
seems to happen on any of the builtins (other man
pages seem to be ok).

Has anyone else seen this, and fixed it?  I haven't
been able to find much on Google, but surely everyone
with RH 8 has this problem, as I'm using an
out-of-the-box install...

Thanks,

http://www.redhat.com/software/whichlinux.html

A web page comparing AS against RedHat Linux (nee integer releases).
On this page AS is noted to now be part of Enterprise Linux.

As you read this keep in mind that they are trying to promote Enterprise
Linux (AS, ES, and WS) at one end of the stability spectrum' and
the Red Hat Linux (integer releases), at the other end of the stability
spectrum.  So the two product lines have almost opposite characteristics
on the stability/usability axis.  How can they promote one without bad
mouthing the other?  They can't.  So they try to walk a fine line balancing
the positive statements about each product line against need to protect the
other product line from being criticized.

AS = Business/Enterprise stability
Integer releases = usability/latest features.

RHAS is the Stable release track.  Customers like Oracle etc.. need a
product they can certify their products with and support their products
on for their customers.  RH's 7.Z, 8.0 etc... release cycle was too fast
for comapnies like Oracle and others so the AS product line was the answer
for the corporate enterprise customer.

Also made clear was that the RH N releases, (the integer releases),
would not be receiving the same level of effort as AS to assure that the
integer releases are stable enterprise level production environments.

AC97 Under Red Hat 7.3

2003-04-04 Thread John Nichel
Hello people,

  I have a system with a Gigabyte GA-7VKMLS motherboard and Red Hat 7.3 
(kernel 2.4.18-27.7.x).  This board has a VIA KM266 North Bridge, and 
VIA 8233A(CE) South Bridge.  According to Gigabyte the audio is Realtek 
101 (and the board has AC97 codec).  When I do a sndconfig, Red Hat sees 
the sound as a VIA Technologies VT8233 AC97 Audio Controller, but when 
it tries to play the test sound, I get this

The following error occurred running the modprobe program:

 Boy Cliff,

C'mon.  That's not flaming.  I try to avoid ad hominem attacks (and feel
free to call me on it if I don't) and stick to addressing the ideas and
opinions that I consider unreasonable or wrong.  When people make what I
take to be unreasonable statements (especially when they do it in such
an inflammatory way) I find it difficult to refrain from demonstrating
the unreasonableness of their position.  Call it a personality flaw if
you like.  To let such things go unanswered would seem to be conceding
the point and giving validity to their claims.  Further, if someone
clarifies or manages to come up with a reasonable argument to support
their claims, I am usually (or try to be) willing to concede points.  

 I think the big thing to think about is the fact that for the most part
 the Linux Community has been dying to push MS aside in the Desktop

This is mostly true (some people just want the best tool for the job,
OSS or not).  But at the same time, you must concede that many of the
things that the Linux desktop has lacked are what is available in newer
versions of RH (especially GNOME 2 and 2.2).  But using these
technologies means compatibility problems.  What should they do?  Avoid
the technology that will bring them closer to having a decent desktop? 
Will they then be criticised for not keeping up to date?  Can they win
either way?

Most of the incompatibilities you see in a new version of RH (or any
other distro) are the result of advances and incompatibilities
introduced by the *projects* that RH builds on, not just RH.  When
GNOME2 came out, RH did their best to ensure that GNOME1 apps would
still run under the new environment.  Can they fix GNOME2 to make it
compatible with GNOME1?  Not likely.  RH has no control over the GNOME
project.  Could they have chosen to forego the upgrade?  Sure, but then
people would complain about not having AA fonts and other niceties that
GNOME2 provides.  The bottom line is that significant technical advances
and compatibility are almost mutually exclusive or require resources
beyond what any OSS project, commercial or not, would be able to muster.

 market, but to do that their really needs to be better open/non-open
 support when they release their OS. Maybe they should create some
 agreements with Ximian. 

That doesn't seem unreasonable.  Unfortunately Ximian tends to be a
little slow on the uptake (they are probably spread thin on resources,
especially with the transition to GNOME2).  They still haven't released
Ximian Desktop for RH 8 (although they do have Red Carpet and
Evolution).  That may become moot as I doubt Ximian Desktop is going to
be a big improvement over what you get with a stock RH 8 or 9 install. 
That might be for the best so that Ximian can focus on Evolution and
their proprietary solutions (Connector, et al). 

The bottom line is that 9 hasn't even seen a general release yet. 
Anyone who is running it today is an early adopter and should expect
some problems (such as third-party apps not running).  Give Ximian a
couple of weeks and then complain to *them* if Connector still hasn't
been ported to 9.

Red Hat 9 and samba 2.2.7a, Unable to Print

2003-04-04 Thread Peter Schwenk
Hello:

I'm a new subscriber, so I'm have no idea if this is a topic that has 
already  been discussed.  Anyway, I setup a RH9 computer to be a print 
server, and I am unable to print to it using a Windows client.  The 
config file is practically the same as a working RH7.1 (samba 2.0.10), 
including the workgroup, security, etc.  It must be a subtle difference 
between the 2.0.10 defaults and 2.2.7a's.  Does anyone have some ideas? 
 I've looked through the logs, but there's not too much to go on in 
there.  The weird part is that I can browse the printers on the machine 
and setup  the printer, but when it comes time to print, nothing 
happens.  Plus, the print manager sez Access denied, Unable to 
connect for the printer.

 I disagree.  I'm currently using 423292, so 500 doesn't leave much head room.
 The extra space is used with logs, etc.
  Especially when running a server.

In that case you need to address what you are doing.

You can use what you want - making the whole drive your OS will 
give a root partition in the gigabyte range. Much fun when it goes
wrong. Been there, got the t-shirt.


The root file system should consist of the basic functionality
needed to get the system booted to single user mode with as many
diagnostic/repair tools as possible.And no more. Some folks even mount
root as read only - along with /usr.

The /var file system is usually  for logs - a busy web server may
generate gigabytes of log data per day. Likewise for a mail server.
T-shirt time again, :-).

I've seen people setup a /tmp file system too - I can see the reason
but I've not yet found it to be necessary.

/usr is where the extra (ie multiuser) system stuff is kept.
/usr/local for extra software you install.
/home for user data - as big as it can be.

If you are running your logs on the root f/s then you have a serious
risk of root being filled with logs - which means no more space for
temp files. At this point you're going to need imagination - and
the server will be down.  ;-

Personally, I've been running/installing/maintaining UNIX servers
for more than fifteen years and setting out the disk partitions is
probably the most important lesson I've learnt from my peers.
 
 So, IMHO, YMMV :-)

as you say, IMHO,YMMV.

attempt.  inet has no way of telling whether or not the connection went
well (it simply passes it off to other processes), so the log is simply
that it started up ftp.

Thanks, that is what I suspected.

There's a way to do this with mutt, but by the time I found that out, I'd 
already written this script:

You use it like this:

  sendfile filename recipient1[,recipient2...]

It checks ~/.mime.types and /etc/mime.types to try to assign an 
appropriate MIME type, and defaults to application/octet-stream.

I use mpack. It's very easy to programmatically create

A quick look on google found the following link at CMU for
the sources. There may be a better source. It may be at
redhat but I didn't look. It used to be included in 7.0 and 7.1.
I can't find it in 7.3.

If you want to create MIME message bodies from

It seems that all the oo programs ignore --help and -h command line

Hi Chris,

 ErrorDocument 403 https://www.domain.com/secret
 IfModule mod_ssl.c
 SSLRequireSSL
 /IfModule

Another (simpler) way is to add a redirect directive to the normal http
version of the website like this (in httpd.conf):

Redirect /secret https://www.domain.com/secret

That way Apache will redirect them for you.  This is what I use when

screen program not working quite right

2003-04-04 Thread Kip Cranford
I have a newly installed RH 8 workstation.  Using the
default terminal (gnome-terminal, I think...), I can't
seem to get the 'screen' program to run correctly.  

screen starts ok, however I'm not able view man pages
-- the formatting is messed up, and even this messed
up output doesn't seem to fill the terminal window
correctly.

Other programs that are sensitive to the termcap (e.g.
vim) don't seem to have any problems.

Has anyone experienced this?

Thanks,

--kip

p.s. This seems to also happen when I use xterm, so
it's most likely a screen issue...

Now using your registrar's web interface, try to register:
1.2.3.4 = ns1.mydomain-2.com
5.6.7.8 = ns2.mydomain-2.com

At least I have been unable to do this at register.com. If you have extra

Re: Turba and LDAP

Francisco Neira said:

 Hi all

 Someone with experience installing turba with LDAP access could help me?

 I'd been following (i guess) the instructions with turba but when I do
 the patching of core.schema appears the following:

 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file core.schema.rej

 Help in Google is nearly *none* and to make matters worse, I'm totally
 n00b with LDAP.

the error you post has nothing to do with LDAP. It is patch reporting
part of the patch failed to apply to the file(patch does try really
hard to apply patches even if the code is offset by dozens/hundreds of
lines). The solution is to either get a copy of core.schema that the
patch was supposed to be applied to and patch it, get a copy of the
already-patched core.schema, or get an updated patch for your version
of core.schema.

or, you can try to find the code manually and patch it, look at
core.schema.rej, it is sometimes possible to manually put the code
into the file-to-be-patched, though if your a n00b then you may
not be able to do it. And there's a good chance that it may not be
possible.

another possiblity is that hunk is already part of the core.schema that
you have in which case the message is harmless, but without knowing
whats in your core.schema and what is in core.schema.rej it is impossible
for me to determine this.

I reccomend asking the authors of the turba package your trying
to use.

How to make Sendmail-8.11.6-72 and Cyrus-1.5.24-20 on Redhat 7.2 towork?

2003-04-04 Thread Jose Vicente Nunez Z
Greetings,

I managed to put Sendmail (using the RPMS that come with Redhat 7.2 with
the latest fixes) but i can only relay using plain passwords with 'pam'.
So far i told Cyrus to use 'sasldb' (in the /usr/lib/sasl/Sendmail.conf)
but the MD5 (Cram and Digest) methods doesn't work.

I would like to be able to:

- Not use regular Unix acounts but SASL accounts to authenticate
sendmail.
- Use MD% (Digest or Cram) instead of plain passwords


Also looks like the Redhat Sendmail doesn't have support for STARTLS by
default:

[X]# sendmail -d0  /dev/null
Version 8.11.6
 Compiled with: LDAPMAP MAP_REGEX LOG MATCHGECOS MIME7TO8 MIME8TO7
NAMED_BIND NETINET NETINET6 NETUNIX NEWDB NIS QUEUE SASL
SCANF
SMTP TCPWRAPPERS USERDB


Here is my setup:
- Redhat 7.2
- sendmail-devel-8.11.6-25.72
- sendmail-doc-8.11.6-3
- sendmail-8.11.6-25.72
- sendmail-cf-8.11.6-25.72
- cyrus-sasl-1.5.24-20
- cyrus-sasl-md5-1.5.24-20
- cyrus-sasl-plain-1.5.24-20
- cyrus-sasl-devel-1.5.24-20


Thanks in advance,

JV.


PD: I read the documentation at
'http://www.sendmail.org/~ca/email/cyrus/sysadmin.html,
http://www.jonfullmer.com/smtpauth/', but no luck so far.

Hello

I would like to know how to install redhat 9 on a system with SiI 3112 
Raid controller.
I have created my raid array in the SiI 3112 configuration. But it 
seems that Redhat 9 don't have drivers for this controller. Redhat 9 
just treats my disks as two seperate disks.

I can see on http://www.siimage.com homepage that linux is actually a 
supported os, but I can't seem to find drivers or anything that will 
help me.

The SiI 3112 controller is onboard on an ASUS P4G8X motherboard. ASUS 
don't have drivers for the controller either.

 This controller isn't really a raid controller.  It's a sata 
controller with a few bios hooks to allow you to boot off the raid 
arrays.  All of the raid is done in the driver.   You are really better 
off treating the controller as an ide controller and using linux 
software raid.  

  That said in theory if you load the ataraid, and silraid modules it 
will see the arrays.  This is not supported in the install however.

Thee are large numbers of business class applications which run on UNIX and

I think the reason you are not getting many responses to your query is that it

So to narrow it down I'd like to ask you, what business applications are you

What processes are you doing partially or entirely by hand now that you would

   Server/Workstation family from RH (I know Oracle has certified them
   for 9i), or
2) if a 9i client can be made to run on RH 8 or 9

or, for that matter, if
3) an 8i client can be made to work on 9. just installed 9 on a test
   machine today, client install goes along nicely til it tries to link,
   at which point it fails horribly. So I tried installing all the
   compat*6.2*rpm files off a 7.2 CD and got a bunch of conflicts from
   RPM (sorry, I don't have the list handy) about things already on
   the system conflicting with stuff in the new rpm files. 

Anybody tried this yet who can give me a hint or two?

Tks!

up2date

2003-04-04 Thread fred smith
I've been trying since Monday to get into up2date and get nothing but
Demo service currently disabled due to high load. I've even written
a shellscript that retries every 10 minutes. it has been running
continuously since Monday and has yet to get in.

Is it really that busy, or are they just 
conspiracy theory alert
trying to get us so frustrated that we'll pay for the service? 
/conspiracy theory alert

Has anyone been able to connect at all this week?
