problem with syslog and logratote script

2003-07-11 Thread Chris W. Parker
Hey there y'all.

Let's see... I have a Sonicwall firewall that is sending it's data to my linux
box via local0.

Here is the pertinent line in /etc/syslog.conf:

local0.*/var/log/sonicwall/log

Here is /etc/logrotate.conf (I removed all unnecessary lines):

weekly
rotate 8
create
include /etc/logrotate.d

/var/log/wtmp {
monthly
create 0664 root utmp
rotate 1
}

/var/log/sonicwall/log {
daily
rotate 7
create
compress
}

For about one day the file /var/log/sonicwall/log increased in size (as it
should) as the sonicwall entries were inserted into it. After that day when the
logrotate script ran it created a log.1.gz file. This of course is because of
the "compress" option. BUT!! After that, the /var/log/sonicwall/log file stopped
increasing in size because it wasn't having any entries put into it.

Now, in the directory /var/log/sonicwall directory I've got three files:

-rw-r-1 root root0 Jul 11 04:02 log
-rw-r-1 root root   26 Jul 10 04:02 log.1.gz
-rw-r-1 root root   864967 Jul 10 04:02 log.2.gz

log.2.gz was the one that was created and working successfully, log.1.gz was
from yesterday and now today there is just plain log. I bet tomorrow I will see
this:

-rw-r-1 root root0 Jul 12 04:02 log
-rw-r-1 root root   26 Jul 10 04:02 log.1.gz
-rw-r-1 root root   26 Jul 10 04:02 log.2.gz
-rw-r-1 root root   864967 Jul 10 04:02 log.3.gz


Anyone have any ideas?


Thanks,
Chris.

[Fwd: Termcap problems] REDHAT V7.3

2003-07-11 Thread Steadman Williams

--- Begin Message ---
Hi

I am currently trying to migrate a 4GL application from a Unix (SCO) to
linux. I have successfully rebuilt the application executables on linux.
However,
I am unable to properly run the application due to termcap issues. I
have tried using the same termcap that was used on SCO Unix but this has
not proven totally
successful.
Attempts to use the default termcap that comes with the linux (RedHat)
OS fails
with error "Termcap entry too long ". The specific terminal types
desired are:
VT320 with extended (108) keyboard, and VT420 with the 104 (PC)
keyboard.  The entries (vt320, vt420pc) in the termcap file for these
terminal
types were extracted to reduce the size of the termcap file. This also
proved
unsuccessful. It appears that a line in the definitions for these
terminal types is
creating the problem.

Question: Can you provide a resolution for this problem?


Regards
Steadman Williams

Re: Glibc update & dead redhat - HEEEELLLPPP !!! - SOLVED

2003-07-11 Thread Greg Bell

Updating glibc*-2.3.2-27.9.i386.rpm on an i686 or Athlon system seems to
be a common way of killing a system... and by some reports it may even
happen if you're using up2date.

Here are some interesting threads on the topic:

 Could it be you are running both ntpdate in an hourly cron job and also 
running ntpd (service ntpd status)? Otherwise I really have no idea what
could 
be setting your system clock. Did you check /var/log/messages for clues
about 
what is updating your system clock?

Dumb questions about Red Hat support/upgrade paths etc.

2003-07-11 Thread Lee Flier
Hi all -

I am new to the Red Hat scene, and I'm a bit confused by the upgrade and
support system.  It's a bit hard to tell what's going on by looking at
the web site.

I originally purchased RH 8.0 and then subscribed to the Red Hat Network
for a year.  I've been getting the live updates as they become
available, and that's all great... but now RH 9 is out.  My Red Hat
Network "available channels" still shows 8.0.  But if I keep updating
8.0 (including the kernel), doesn't it eventually become the same thing
as 9.0?  Or is 9.0 entirely different?

If it is in fact different, I also see that one can download the ISO
images for 9.0 from RHN... however if I do that, and install 9.0 as an
upgrade, will I then have access to the RH9 "channel" on RHN?  Will RHN
"know" that I have upgraded and will my available subscription services
reflect that?

Also, doesn't subscribing to RHN give you access to any other support
options?  I can't say that it's very easy to figure out what you get, or
in some cases how to get to it, from the web site.

Would appreciate any insight into the "Red Hat culture" and how it
works.

Thanks,
Lee

Python crashes at install for RH9

2003-07-11 Thread IS Manager
Been a long time since I've posted but I can't find any info on this.

System
Tyan Thunder K7X MB w/ dual channel U160 SCSI controller (Adaptec AIC7899W)
2x AMD 2000+ MP cpus
Adaptec 2000s Zero Channel RAID Controller
3x 36.9GB SCSI3 HDDs in RAID5
ATI Rage XL video (integrated) w/ 4mb memory
SCSI CDRW
DDS3 Sony Tape Drive

When trying to install RH9 from the CD on a completely rebuilt RAID
partition (all other data was flushed and HDDs were system level formated)
the install gets as far as loading the SCSI / RAID drivers (dtr_i2o if I'm
rememering right). After that part it tries to load anaconda but gets a
sig11 and reboots the system. Trying to install using "linux text" gets the
same result. Doing "linux lowres" gets to the X server start up gray screen
but then it crashes out. The only info it gives in the last method is that
it IDs the video as a ATI Mach 64 (which as you can see above it isn't).

Anyone have any idea how I can get the install to work? Is this a probing
issue? Should I  try a diffent video card or is it something completely
different. I've installed quite a few RH versions and a number of systems
and this is the first time I can't get it to at least get it to the install
menus.

Thanks in advance.

i70west.net is on the same ip block and works like a charm.  One ends with
.10 while the other ends in .9.  One is a Win2000 system and the other is
RH.  I have the DNS farmed out to a larger company and the MX seems to be
setup correctly on both.  I will check into this today to try and get the
problem fixed if that is the problem.

Thanks for the pointer.

RE: Up2date issue?

2003-07-11 Thread Go, Jeffrey
Hi Ed

I re-confired the up2date parameters to dl the kernel packages..

Now I am running into issue where it downloads the 
Kernel.2.4.20 and smp packages with no issues, but when it tries to dl the source 
file, I gte a fatal error saying I don't have enough space and it needs 58 MB of space 
n root directory. I do a df -k and I see it has close to 200 MB available...any ideas?

Also, after doing the up2date, isnt a reboot supposed to boot into the new kernel? I 
am still seeing the old kernel upon reboot...
Do I have to modify the Lilo.conf file?

Thank you for you patience

The default up2date configuration is to skip kernels.  From the command
line, add --force when doing kernels.  I always update everything
excluding the kernels, and do just a --force on the kernel last.

I have no idea how it's done from the GUI - I don't do Linux GUIs.

Bug in redhat 9 kernel-> problems with cpufreq.c during recompilation

2003-07-11 Thread Didier Casse
Hi there,
 I tried to patch my Linux kernel 2.4.20-8 i686 i386 GNU/Linux (on 
redhat 9)  with the linux-ppscsi patch so that I can add my parallel port 
scanner to my pc. 

I started as follows in the /usr/src/linux-2.4.20-8/ directory

step 1. patch -p1 < linux.ppscsi.patch
step 2. make menuconfig to ensure SCSI suppoer and parallel port support
step 3. make dep
step 4. make bzImage
step 5. make modules

then error occures at step 5 as shown below:

++
/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-8/include/linux/dcache.h: In function `dget':
/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-8/include/linux/dcache.h:254: warning: implicit

++

Can anybody help me out with this thing as i really need to get that
scanner going? I have no clue how to solve this type of error and
everybody on the redhat mailing list is clueless too!  Thanks for helping 
out.

regards,

Didier

I included the "-vo x11" to play on external monitor. (Don't understand

 Could it be you are running both ntpdate in an hourly cron job and also 
running ntpd (service ntpd status)? Otherwise I really have no idea what could 
be setting your system clock. Did you check /var/log/messages for clues about 
what is updating your system clock?

Bye,
Leonard.

How you authenticate user with mysql from postfix and curier-imap?

Then I can authenticate ftp users either with vsftp & mysql?

I do this with Postfix and Courier-Imap (which also provides POP3)
authenticating from a MySQL database.

AFAIK there is no way to do this with using system accounts for logins,
you have to use virtual domains.

ls -color

2003-07-11 Thread James Richards
Hi, I'm trying to change my ls colors so that it better matches my background (the 
current colors don't do well with a black background and I'm not changing my 
background for other reasons).  Does anyone know how I can change my directory color 
from dark blue to light blue (but not cyan as that is my sym link color ;).  I see 
that `dircolors -p` gives me the mapping for the colors I'm using now.  However, dir 
color uses values like 34 for blue.  I would like to just define my own color from the 
list of colors available in `showrgb`, is this possible?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks,
James

Re: ssl

2003-07-11 Thread Mr. L.R. Adrian
Ok,
Don't quote this but i believe it should simply read;
Listen 80

and in your conf file there is an Ifdefine statement {not the one in you
statement.
It is standalone in the top area of the conf file.
Looks like this:

Listen 443
If it looks like this it's turned off.
#
#Listen 443

The do a search on your conf file and see if you can see the port it's
calling "98"

configure LVM

2003-07-11 Thread santosh kumar
Hi, 

The m/c is loaded with redhat 7.2 with kernel 2.4.7-10 want to configure
LVM but is it possible to change current partition format to LVM format.
I need to add new harddisk and want to configure LVM Now configuration
is like this

FilesystemSize  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda1 9.6G  4.5G  4.6G  49% /
/dev/hda2  26G  3.3G   21G  14% /gladiator
none  246M 0  246M   0% /dev/shm
/dev/hdb1  37G   33G  2.5G  93% /export

If I change this to LVM then
1)  Is it possible to change root partition to LVM
2)  Shall I loose any data
3)  What are the things to be done to make LVM work properly without
losing the data..

Please some one can answer to this query...Hope to hear from all of
you...

Thanks & Regards,

Re: problem with raid

2003-07-11 Thread Samuel Flory
Nicholas wrote:

Hi folks :
 Could anybody show me on how to guide me here in step by 
step
configuring  my system  with raid controller here?


 Keep in mind the raid controller in question is not really a raid 
controller.  It's an ide controller with a few bios features to build an 
array from the bios, and boot from a raid array.  The actual raid occurs 
in the driver.

1st problem :

I am using a intel 845wd1 motherboard with 2 maxtor 60 gig hard disk

i plan to mirror the OS + 40 gig data from hd 1(hde)  to hd (hdg),
i have try few times, but i dont think i manage to do it.
the experience :

1. i configured raid 1 PDC20267 with 2 cables, each set to master, means
one of the controller will be master controller.
2. then i install linux, i can see the partition in the menu... it 
shows hde and hdg.
because of i want to mirror hhe to hdg, so i did disturb or create any 
partition
in hdg.
3 then i proceed with installation.
4 after i reboot the PC, it just cannot boot, it said " grub error 22"

please guide me on this or correct me on this.




2nd experience :

1. i just clean the entire hd and then i did a fresh installation.
2. when finish doing it, i rebuild the mirror which from the source to 
the destination.
3. it boot successfully, but the problem is, the hd just booted with 
read only mode,'
help!!

well, now i have a system with following the first experience, and i 
still cannot boot,
i also lack of knowledge then just didnt rebuild the mirror. for 
booting, i created a CD
to boot.

please show me where i gone wrong. i am using a redhat 9.0


Use the linux software raid driver it's much better:
1)Create 2 arrays in the promise.  Each array should consist of a single 
drive.  This will give your bios boot devices.
2)Boot the installer and use the native linux software raid support.  
Remember that software under linux is per partition not per disk.
3)Be sure to use the lilo bootloader instead of grub.  Grub really 
doesn't do software raid support.

mailman help

Can anyone help with this mailman issue? I search mailman list archive
but all the hits were kind of old. 

I installed mailman, created a list, and I'm trying to use the web
interface to configure it. Every time I hid Submit Changes it takes me
to the admin login page and the changes are not saved. 

The only real change was modified the hostname in Defaults.py and
mm_cfg.py and changed localhost.localdomain to the hostname I want it to
use. That hostname is resolvable. 

Anyone know what the problem is?

KM266 & RH 9.0

2003-07-11 Thread Rich Cottle
All, 
I need some help/ advice.

I have just upgraded my main PC  to a Biostar M7VIG Pro mobo with an AMD
XP2400+ 
256MB DDR memory, USB 2.0, lan and audio on the mobo, and a Nvidia GForce 2 MX
440 64MB AGP video.
The chipset is a VIA KM266.  The hdd is an IBM 80GB Deskstar @ ATA133

The problem

So far ANY Linux distro that I have tried fails to install.
The RH versions all start the install but fail with a "corrupt media or file"
between 5% and no more then 40% complete.
The RH 9.0 media check is good. 
Other distros all fail in various and very strange ways. 
I have tried the following parms on the boot cmd:  NODMA ;  PCI=bios;  and 
all the redhat suggestions about text, lores, etc. 

The VIA site  implies that the KM266 is supported. 

Help!!! please. 
(p.s. XP pro, of course, works as well as a MS OS can.)

Thanks in advance,

configure: error: Your OpenSSL headers do not match your library

I'm running RH 7.2.

I'm trying to manually (via tarballs) install openssh-3.6p1.  I've

./configure \

If you want a simple aggregate:

Check out http://www.mplayerhq.hu/homepage/.  There is documentation there,
as well as their own set of mailing lists.  I believe you need to specify
which video output the video should play on, though.

Re: mount: /dev/cdrom is not a valid block device

2003-07-11 Thread Leonard den Ottolander
Hi Shawn,

> I need SCSI-emulation to burn a CD with a burner don't I?  How can I check if I
> have that?

 Indeed you need scsi emulation. That is why the symbolic link /dev/cdrom 
should be pointing to something like /dev/scd0, not to /dev/hdc.

 To make sure the ide-scsi module is loaded at boot add an 'append "hdc=ide-
scsi"' line to the appropriate section in your boot loader config (i.e. 
/etc/lilo.conf or /boot/grub/grub.conf). I assume this line is already there 
and lsmod shows the ide-scsi module, because if it's not your cd burner would 
be using the ide-cd module, in which case /dev/hdc is the proper device.

 By the way, you should not mount a cd if you want to write it. See man 
cdrecord for details.

Bye,
Leonard.

mplayer/xine/ogle dvd playback question

2003-07-11 Thread Duane Winner
Hello all

I'm running RedHat9 on an IBM Thinkpad T23 with a 1280x1024 resolution. I also 
have a Sharp LCD Monitor (doing same resolution -- 1280x1024)

I have installed xine, mplayer and ogle as well libdvdcss using apt-get.

I can play a movie without any problems (I think I like mplayer the most) 
whenever I'm just using my laptop's LCD display. I watched Lord of the Rings 
without any problems last night.

But today, I hook up my laptop to my Sharp external LCD monitor, and all I get 
on the display is a blue picture. I can hear the sound ok, but no just blue 
where the the video should be.

Any ideas?

But if I take the exact link mozilla uses (which you can see when a
dialog opens for the download), this wouldn't really apply would it

I just upgraded to wget-1.8.2-15.1 from rawhide and it works fine now,
so maybe there is a bug in the current redhat rpm

Same as the other reply : 

If you're too lazy like me to type the full command, you can add an
entry in you fstab.

Here is mine for mu USB HD :

/dev/sda1   /mnt/usbdrive   vfatnoauto,user,umask=000   0 0

...so that, you'll juste have to type "mount /mnt/usbdrive" to be ready
... not really a big trick, but better than "mount -t vfat /dev/sda1
/mnt/usbdrive", isn't it. 

And the noauto arg means that it's to be mounted automatically at boot
time.

RE: Glibc update & dead redhat - HEEEELLLPPP !!!

2003-07-11 Thread Sadanapalli, Pradeep Kumar (MED, TCS)
Before updating the glibc, you please check the architecture the glibc
RPM . 
All other glibc RPMS(Ex: glibc-common) have i383 architecture set, but
only 
the glibc RPM is set to i686 architecture. So even while downloading
from redhat 
updates, download GLIBC from i686 folder.Then everything will work fine
hopefully,
in case this is the only point you are missing.

To find the architecture of an RPM,
# rpm -q --queryformat "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{ARCH}\n"
glibc
# glibc-2.3.2-27.9.i686
I don't know if there is any other reason...

Hope this helps.

I've got wget-1.8.2-9.  It doesn't always happen, and when it does, it
seems to be those sites where the download happens "automatically" when
you get to the page.  You know "here's the link, if the download doesn't

actually have to copy the clickable link and paste it into the wget.

RH 9, /zip - not a valid block device

2003-07-11 Thread Wartnick, James
RHL,

Anyone who can help me out on this, I would greatly appreciate it.

I upgraded from RH7 to RH9 and I am having problems mounting my parport zip drive. I 
believe it 
mounted when I installed the original rh9 kernel. I patched the kernel to version: 
2.4.20-18.9smp. 
However, when I attempt to mount the /zip drive I get the following message:

/home>mount /zip
mount: /dev/sdc4 is not a valid block device   

When the machine boots, it does recognize that /zip drive (see below)


Jul  6 07:20:44 www kernel: SCSI device sdc: 196608 512-byte hdwr sectors (101 M
B)
Jul  6 07:20:44 www kernel: sdc: Write Protect is off
Jul  6 07:20:44 www kernel:  sdc: sdc4   

PPA module is loaded:


scsi_mod  110904   4  [ppa st aic7xxx sd_mod]

Here is my modules.conf:

alias scsi_hostadapter aic7xxx
alias eth0 e100
alias parport_lowlevel parport_pc
alias eth1 3c59x
alias usb-controller usb-ohci  

Any ideas?

Re: Glibc update & dead redhat - HEEEELLLPPP !!!

2003-07-11 Thread Alex
For the moment I dont have access to the server directly, I'm in a ssh
session which I have started earlier (now I cant start another one).
Something that can be done remotely? (rescue cd I know, but... remote..??? )

version you got.
maybe you have to use chroot to get the paths right (i think --root is

Your Postfix is not well configured. Check the $mydomain, $myhostname, 
$myorigin, relay_domains.

What do the postfix logs say. It should say something even if it doesn't 
want to recieve your mail, unless:
1) Postfix is not running
2) It's listening to another port
3) You have iptables or ipchains blocking port 25

Based on my understanding of the OP problem (he posted very little info to
be of any help) the problem seems to be outbound related, not inbound. The
above referenced option only restricts sendmail from receiving e-mail except
from localhost (i.e. An MUA running on the system itself). It can still send
outbound e-mail with the above option in place barring any firewall
restrictions.

Since your on a lan "not set by you"; could be that a firewall is blocking
all outbound smtp connections except from a designated MTA. I do that here
just in case a virus installs its own MTA to spread its garbage.

As others have pointed out, if you are unable to telnet to any external MTA,
then your only option is to configure sendmail to use a smarthost on your
lan.

This thread was opened by Jeffrey Go, so what is your particular
problem? What do you mean with "I did a rebuild"? For the Red Hat
Network Update Agent to work, you need a free slot in your account
at https://rhn.redhat.com -- else, upon registering your machine,
you would always see the error message that you don't have any
entitlements left. So, go there, log in and remove old and unused
systems to free up at least the single demo entitlement.

Do a 'man dhclient.conf'.

The stock RedHat 9 kernel source does contain experimental support for

with USB 2.0 support in it by enabling experimental drivers and choosing
the ehci driver in the USB section.  It also refers you to

The sda1 is normally where your USB HD is. You can try sda2,sdb,sdc etc

Eudora's handling of attachments maybe inconvenient (it used to take
them out of the messages, creating a lot of separate files and ruining
the mbox files). Although a little queer, IMHO Pegasus is probably the
best email client available on Windows. Have a look to the 4.x release
(haven't done in a while..)

Hope this helps

DNS resolve order

2003-07-11 Thread John Nichel
I have a Red Hat gateway setup (RH 9) which connects to the net via a 
cable modem.  I would like this box to use itself as the nameserver, but 
no matter what I've tried, it keeps getting the nameservers for my ISP. 
 I put the box's IP in resolve.conf, but that keeps getting overwritten 
by "generated by /sbin/dhclient-script".  How can I force it to use the 
nameservers that I tell it to use, while continuing to use DHCP to 
connect to my ISP?  Thanks.

Does it work if you try /dev/sda (rather than sda1)?

I use sylpheed in linux and I believe there is a windows version as well.  Try
doing a google search for sylpheed and give it a try.  Very small download and
footprint.

Alex,
Either will work. In sendmail you need to create the virtual user 
table (/etc/mail/virtusertable). Add the entries you want

[EMAIL PROTECTED]   admin
[EMAIL PROTECTED]   alex

Then hash the table. This will create the 'virtusertable.db'. Make sure to 
add the support in your 'sendmail.mc' file.

FEATURE(`virtusertable',`hash -o /etc/mail/virtusertable.db')dnl

Run the m4 command on you .mc file after the update and that should get it

I noticed several replies and haven't really been keeping up with the 
thread, but at this point, Yahoo is complaining because your mail 
server 'smtp.colwest.com' does not have a reverse DNS entry.

Does i70west.net check for a reverse DNS entry? If not, then that would 
explain it. Alot of mail servers use this check to cut down on the spam, 
but still alot of others do not. So you would still be able to send mail 
through the severs that do not check.

Hope this helps.

adding modules w/o kernel recompilation to add parallel port scanner

2003-07-11 Thread Didier Casse
I wanted to add the ppscsi and epst module to my kernel so that I can hook 
up my parallel port scanner to it. But when I tried to compile my kernel I 
got some problems (the previous mail on the mailing list). I was wondering 
whether there's some ways to add those 2 modules so that I don't have 
to do any recompilation of kernel. Recompiling kernel is troublesome and 
dangerous!

Anybody had a parallel port scanner before and  managed to make 
xsane recognize it without any kernel recompilation?

Re: mount: /dev/cdrom is not a valid block device

2003-07-11 Thread Shawn
Hello,

In reference to the "driver not present" message I get in the output of 
dmesg,

I need SCSI-emulation to burn a CD with a burner don't I?  How can I check 
if I have that?

(somewhat of a newby, haven't ever complied a kernel)

I am guessing from the following and the info below that for some reason 
SCSI-emulation has been turned off or removed.  But I really am not sure.  
Any help please (even if just to let me know I am really really off-track)?

/sbin/lsmod | grep cd
ide-cd 30632   0
cdrom  30208   0 [sr_mod ide-cd]
ehci-hcd   15464   0 (unused)
usbcore69664   1 [usb-storage hid usb-uhci ehci-hcd usb- 
ohci]

/sbin/lsmod | grep ide
ide-cd 30632   0
cdrom  30208   0 [sr_mod ide-cd]




As
suggested, you could use SCSI-emulation, which is necessary for burning 
CDs
with a burner, but not necessary for read-only drives.  It's simpler to
stick with the IDE CD driver.

The source of your "driver not present" error message is the ide_open()
function in /usr/src/linux/drivers/ide/ide.c.  Even if you don't know C,
it's not too hard to understand:
static int ide_open (struct inode * inode, struct file * filp)
{
ide_drive_t *drive;
...
if (drive->driver == NULL) {
if (drive->media == ide_disk)
(void) request_module("ide-disk");
if (drive->scsi)
(void) request_module("ide-scsi");
if (drive->media == ide_cdrom)
(void) request_module("ide-cd");
if (drive->media == ide_tape)
(void) request_module("ide-tape");
if (drive->media == ide_floppy)
(void) request_module("ide-floppy");
}

Greetings,
I don't want to add to the confusion, might I suggest a quick
process I
use to troubleshoot mail problems. POP3, IMAP and SMTP daemons
communicate
in ascii text. You could give commands from a terminal (To emulate a
email
client) to quickly determine which piece is the problem. I only use this 
process to determine the problem, then focus my attention on it. You can 
remotely test your email from a system to the server where your mail
resides.
For example:

]$ telnet localhost 110 (POP3 server is on the machine I'm testing from)
and/or
]$ telnet ##.##.##.## 110 (POP3 server IP address, no DNS)
and/or
]$ telnet pop3.host.name 110 (POP3 server, with DNS test)

The POP3 server should respond with a '+OK ...' 

You can issue commands to the server like 
]$ USER username
]$ PASS the_password
]$ 'LIST' or 'RETR 1' or 'TOP 1 0' or 'QUIT'
BTW: This is how your email client communicates with the server,
kind of sends a shudder of fear down your spine doesn't it?  

For POP3s:
]$ openssl s_client -connect pop3.host.name:pop3s 
(After the Cert. Info. you should see the server respond with a '+OK
...')

Anyway, If the connection hangs or returns an error, and I am on the
server where my email resides, I try the pop3 daemon from the command 
line

]$ /usr/sbin/ipop3d (The POP3 server will respond with a '+OK ...')

If I get the correct response from the daemon, then I turn off the 
firewall

]$ /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables stop 
and/or
]$ /etc/rc.d/init.d/ipchains stop

I try the above 'telnet' again. Still no response, I add localhost to 
the TCP wrappers 

]$ echo 'All: 127.0.0.1' >> /etc/hosts.allow
and/or
]$ echo 'ipop3d: 127.0.0.1' >> /etc/hosts.allow

Check the deny config (/etc/hosts.deny) file for anything goofy. 
By default I put 'All: All' in that file. Then in the
'/etc/hosts.allow'
file I put everything I want to allow connections. You decide 
( ]$ man hosts.allow )
After you configure those files try the above telnet again, still no, 
check your network connections.

]$ /sbin/ifconfig

In the output I should see both the loopback (lo) and what means you
are connecting to the Internet (ppp1, eth0, etc). 

]$ route

Confirm you have loopback (127.0.0.1) and your router address in the 
output.

]$ netstat -atp ( All, TCP and Process ID )

Confirm the pop3, and imap are present and associated with the proper
program. In your case 'xinetd'. Keep in mind this output is only for
the machine you are issuing this command on.


If you get to this point and POP3 is still not functioning, and all of
the above
tests are OK, then you have a real problem. Most of the time I find it
is either 
the firewall or tcp wrappers that are the cause. After I am satisfied
with POP3, 
I change out '110' to '143' and start the process over with IMAP. Once
IMAP is 
complete, I test it out with SMTP (25). I usually sit on a test box and
remotely 
test the mail server. I would strongly suggest you really test out your
SMTP 
connection for relay etc. Spammers will have your system doing their
toil in no 
time if it's mis-configured. 

Hope this helps,
Ken

RE: /bin/date time is jumping backward, please help

2003-07-11 Thread miniwar
Thank you for your reply.
I think you are misunderstanding what I mean.

The ntp will update the system clock hourly only.
But I have used /bin/date and perl script to check the system at anytime,
the reported system clock will 1-4 seconds less than previous report(just 1
second interval between 2 report) at any instant, sometime. 

That mean the system clock will decrease is not related to ntpd. 
Below is the perl script I wrote to check system time, you will found the
output sometime will be negative or 0, or greater than 1. On a problem less
Linux system, all output should be 1.
So do you have any idea what problem is going on?
[perl time function result--
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# cat a.cgi
#!/usr/bin/perl

while (1) {
   my $init_time = time;
   sleep(1);  
   print time-$init_time, "\n";
}

 Ntp and ntpdate only set the system time, not the hardware clock. This
means 
hwclock and date will not always produce the same time. To set the hardware 
clock to the current system time use hwclock --systohc. Red Hat systems do 
this automatically on shutdown I believe.

 If your system time is not correct it will be udpated every hour by
ntpdate. 
This could explain the time shift. If you have a bad system clock (f.e. an
old 
battery) after every boot your system time might shift a few seconds at the 
first cron job, but it shouldn't change too much after that. (In your case
it 
looks like your hardware clock is actually running too fast, which would 
explain the backward shift of a few seconds. Again, this shift usually is
only 
this big the first time the clock is updated.)

Bye,
Leonard.

Re: Sendmail can't go out

2003-07-11 Thread David Richards
i think you should check /etc/mail/sendmail.cf for the following line

O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA

if its 127.0.0.1 then you sendmail is listening on 127.0.0.1 for mail
connections which i dont think is what you want

on the machine you are trying to send the mail through, you need to add
