eth0 wierdness
Hello everyone, I have sucessfully converted a number of win users into linux users Via RH 8.0/9.0 and Gentoo. This workstation has all the bells and whisles. Yesterday, I was contacted by one such user with the inability to access anything outside the localhost. I attempted to ssh inTimeout. I instructed the gentle user to bring up a xterm /sbin/ifconfig. Only lo was listed. So it was time to actually go there. Yes only loopback was working. So I /sbin/service network restart. Now eth0 was revealed and picked up a ip from dhcp. /etc/resolv.conf contained the correct DNS ip. Still no IP resolution. Log-out and back-in. Nope. I finally rebooted and all worked again. My question, What should I have done to correct this? Still scratching and TIA, j -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Goals of FAQ
Hello Thomas, I think that thought or actual goal is to make sure that some of the questions asked on the mailing list that are quite common are in the FAQ, this will allow for list members to direct people to the FAQ to take a look at the answer, if it is not what they are after then they can come back and say look I saw the FAQ and it didn't work for me ! If it works for them then excellent the FAQ team has been successful in its work. I would like to believe that the questions asked are usually user questions on the RH operating platform are also somewhat more User FAQ, but at the end of the day there will be list common questions as well as a general reference. I believe that as the FAQ team evolves and gets the process more refined I am sure that you will see some of the things you suggest, please join the mailing list at http://www.reznet.uleth.ca/mailman/listinfo/redhat-faq and keep us on our toes. I will look at the site you have provided, I am sure that it will be useful. Cheers, Aly. I have a question wrt organisation of the FAQ: - What's the actual goal? When I read the first section, I thought the FAQ is only about the use of RH mailing lists. When I read the second one, it's more like a User FAQ. My suggestion would therefore be to have a section named RH Mailing Lists or suchlike rather than General Questions, especially, as the RH Version question is in General, too. If you aim to make a User FAQ (rather than just a mailing list FAQ), I'd suggest two things: a) You might want to consider a different name ;-) and b) have a look at the original Red Hat Linux User's FAQ from Aaron Turner. It's pretty much out-of-date now (last update was in 2000), but it was a valuable help in its time and maybe there are a few questions in there that are still valid today (even though they may have different answers nowadays). It can be found at: http://rhlufaq.synfin.net/ Other than that: Cudos to ye folks for doing this!

Suppose the cpio is writing nice big data chunks to the pipe - thus it fills the pipe on every write (a pipe, internally, has a fixed size, small, buffer). I have not seen the linux pipe implementation source (yet) but based on System V, Pipes are usually implemented using the Mbufs in the kernel, the same buffers used for TCP/IP packet handling, and usually the Max file size on a pipe is greater than 32K in total buffering. Limit is usually a kernel parameter. The whole process runs at CPU speed and the sender will only block when the pipe gets full. Based on this premise and past experience -- the following comments are made.. On the premise that data comes of the disc drive faster than it goes across the network (generally true), so the activity goes: cpio writes the pipe fills cpio blocks not exactly - cpio blocks on it's next read from the disk drive RSH may or may not be run by the scheduler during this period and empty out all or part of the pipe but in general there is a great deal of overlap and the pipeline normally never fills unless the CPU resources are being strained. Cpio does not stall if the PIPE max size is larger than the read size being used by CPIO. Remember you are not just running these two processes alone, oter programs can kick in at any time for cpu or io access. rsh reads the pipe, draining it cpio unblocks, gathers more data cpio writes to the pipe again and blocks on filling it rsh writes data to the network rsh reads more data cpio unblocks and so on. This means that cpio stalls a lot of the time. This: cpio | cat | rsh ... puts a little extra buffering in the process, reducing the stalls. There's actually a program called buffer around to let you do this more effectively (and efficiently - it forks and shares the buffer across the two instances), used thus: This just adds an unnecessary middle man who consumes more pipe and cpu resources and does not buy you much in this case. especially since the real bottle neck here is the network and it's 1500 byte packets. Thats where things slow down because of fragmentation of the original 5120 or larger packets. I am actually running his type of backup between two SUns (solaris) and a 4 MM DDS-3 tape drive. It;s this fragmentation at the network layer that is really slowing things down. we have to reconstruct the larger data block from the smaller tcp/ip packets at the rate and size they actually arrive. Fragmentation Kills cpio | buffer -m 1M | rsh ... which used a 1 megabyte buffer. Very effective for getting closer to streaming behaviour. This is great if the tape drive is on the same system. Volcopy (ATT System V Rel 4) also implemented double buffer IO for disk dumps to locally attached tape drives. This just slows it down if pipes are implemented correctly in the kernel. I can send you the buffer program if you like - it's extremely useful for this particular purpose. What he needs is a version of the Double buffer io program running on the slave side of the link where the tape drive is. It has two cooperating processes that switch roles. Both sides can read from the TCP/IP socket and write directly to the tape drive (replace DD) in a specified block size. While one reads from the socket, the other is writing to the tape drive and then they switch roles. The switchover communication is performed using a local two way pipe between the twin processes. The performance is gained becuase while one process is blocked on the tape write the otehr continues to read from the socket. The other major thing that helps is if this is all running on a multi-processor system since you dont get cpu bound. So he should potentially upgrade to multiple cpu based servers if that is not the current case and implement a double buffered io program to replace the call to DD to handle the tape drive directly.

Re: Are there any GOOD Free DVD players for RH 8?
I used to use mplayer because it has DVD decryption support out of the box. However the gui leaves much to be desired, and the build process can be a bit tricky. Recently though Xine has included DVD support, and their player is far more polished and easier to set up. Once you download the Xine libs, Xine frontend ( such as Totem if youre on Gnome ), you have to search for something like DeCSS DVD decoder library to find the trivially small library that contains the illegal decoding routine. Without it Xine will complain it cant open the DVD. The DVD decryption scheme called CSS is the sole reason why DVD on linux is a pain. While it is a technically trivial code, its illegal ( because it can somehow be used to pirate DVDs, according to one idiot judge who used to work for the motion picture assoc. ) to decode DVDs on any player that hasnt purchased a key from MPAA -- which open source developers dont have the money to do. Even if they could buy it, they would probably be sued for distributing the source code for it. Enjoy! I watch DVDs all the time on my computer, and I have yet to boot Win2000 in the past 6 monthes!

Samba permissions
Well, I thought I knew Samba permissions, but I guess I don't. Currently, any user that has an account on the Samba server has access to the share Accounting. So, let's say I have user1, user2, user3, user4 I have added user1, user2 and user3 to the accounting group. user4 is not a member of accounting. On the server itself (not for Samba), I set up permissions for the folder as 774 for all directories and files therein. User/group permission are set as admin.accounting The samba section for this share reads: [Accounting] comment = Accounting path = /home/accounting read only = No create mask = 0770 force create mode = 0770 security mask = 0770 directory mask = 0770 force directory mode = 0770 directory security mask = 0770 inherit permissions = Yes If any local user access this share, they also automatically become part of the accounting group (as far as samba is concerned). Now, if I add a line valid users = user1, user2, user 3 then of course, just they can get in. But that doesn't seem to be the right solution. The right solution would be to permit only accounting group users into the folder.

Question about samba servers
I have one samba server as the PDC for our org. Another samba server is supposed to permit access to shares based on authentication from the aforementioned PDC. I'll call this second computer SMB for simplicity. PDC has an LDAP and PAM database for authenticating all users. SMB is setup as follows (smb.conf): workgroup = NPC-USA netbios name = SMB server string = %h server (Samba %v) security = DOMAIN encrypt passwords = Yes password server = * passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 1000 name resolve order = hosts wins lmhosts bcast socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 printcap name = cups local master = No domain master = False dns proxy = No wins server = 10.0.1.13 comment = Printers path = /var/spool/samba hosts allow = 10.0.1.0/255.255.255.0 printing = cups printer name = lp Well, unless I add a user to SMB (adduser *) then that user will not have access to any shares on SMB.

Problem with Useradd crashing
Greetings! Over the weekend we migrated our server to a fresh installation of Redhat 7.3 from 7.1. All of our users/groups were ported over as well (approx. 800 users). Our problem is that ever since the migration, the useradd command is crashing and corrupting the group file every time we try to add a user to a particular existing group. This particular group has a very large number of users in it. When the useradd command is issued, it goes into a loop and we have to kill the process manually. If I then open the group file, it is cut off immediately after the line for the group we're trying to add the user to. Adding a user to any other group seems to work fine. The interesting thing is, I can add users via the Webmin interface and assign them to that group without any problem. This makes me wonder if there is a bug in useradd, or if stricter limits may have been put in place in 7.3. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

At some point recently, I can't say when, the option to edit the K menu from the configure panel dialog has stopped working. When I select the edit k menu button, my hard drives go into motion and my system effectivly locks up. Nothing happens, the clock does not even update. I can leave it this way for hours and still the drives are active, but nothing. The ONLY way out of this is the reset button. Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas for a resolution would be greatly appreciated. Mike Jones I experienced this in RH 8.0 - what I ended up having to do (at least my kludge worked for my issues) was to edit the /etc/profile and include: KDEDIR=/usr export KDEDIR ...then as well, add the QT lib paths to my /etc/ld.so.conf and rerun ldconfig; after that, all my KDE apps/applets worked without further problems. This has become part of my normal practise now when I do an installation of RH on a workstation - JUST IN CASE - cuz I don't wanna have to go back to the workstation unless I absolutely have to...

How can I find the key, at least, no such key print as this name? 99.99% of laptops have a function button combination that allows you to switch from the LCD to a CRT monitor plugged into the laptop. The function key is going to be labelled as Fn or similar - then the button for changing LCD/CRT should either be one of the number keys toward the top of the keypad, or one of the normal function buttons. If you can plug a monitor into this laptop, there has to be a combo for using a function key and another key - if anything, the manual for the laptop will give concise directions for using a regular monitor with your laptop. -- Wed May 28 13:55:01 EST 2003 13:55:01 up 16:28, 4 users, load average: 0.15, 0.16, 0.11 - |____ |kuhn media australia| | /-oo /| |'-. |http://kma.0catch.com | | .\__/ || | | || | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' |stephen kuhn| | | / \__.`=._) (_ | email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | - linux user #:267497 linux machine #:194239 * MDK 9.1 RH 7.3 Mandrake Linux Kernel 2.4.21-11mdk Cooker for i586 - * This message was composed on a 100% Microsoft free computer * No matter who you are, some scholar can show you the great idea you had was had by someone before you. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Peter Kiem's Windows-UNIX idea is promising. If it doesn't pan out, can you post the CGI script? Also, what happens when you run the script by hand: ../textclock.cgi /dev/null It is important that the CGI emits good MIME headers too (this is the essense of the Premature end of script headers stuff - of course script which aborts produces no headers too). Oh yes - do other CGIs work for you? Also, RedHat ships an suexec-enabled web server. This means that the core error message is often in the suexec error log, not the main web error log. It should be in the same directory as the usual web logs.
