log message for HD crash, is this hardware failure?
Hello all, My harddrive crashed when I got in this morning. Right now, manually running fsck /dev/hdb never finished, I would get read error (short read, etc), bad/duplicate something, and then the screen will scroll with all kind of numbers (like the screen of a terminal on the Matrix movie.. :) ) I can mount the drive though, although some data can't be read. I guess my only solution is to try recover whatever can be recovered from there and re-format the harddrive. But my question , is this a hardware/HD failure? because if it's, it might not be worth it to use the HD again, better just replace it, since the server is our development database server. Here is the log from /var/log/message. I asked help to interpret this. Thanks for your help.

pinging a name vs. number
List and network gurus... I recently had a coworker tell me that we should *always* ping by *name*, *not* by number. The reason as explained is because the resolution takes place at a higher level on the OSI stack. And pinging the number does nothing but tell you that the 'connection' to the machine is okay. Huh?! Isn't pinging by name just the same as pinging by number, only adding a step for the name resolution? % ping 10.0.0.5 +-++---+ | work station - | 10.0.0.5 +-++---+ % ping myserver +-++---+ | work station - | myserver +-++---+ | | +-+ | DNS/WINS # myserver = 10.0.0.5 +-+ I added WINS here because, well, we have a Windoze LAN and the server in question is a remote Exchange server. I think what my esteemed MCSE colleague was wanting to explain that pinging is not as effective as telneting to the check the service in question. My understanding of the our network is that many times it's not our remote Exchange host, but the connection between us that is the problem, and pinging by name or number is just fine as a test. For instance if I wanted to check my webserver to see if it was up I could %ping mywebserver #OR %ping 10.0.0.10 #mywebserver But this tells me nothing about the HTTPD service. So I would be better off %telnet mywebserver 80 #OR %telnet 10.0.0.10 80 #OR %curl -I http://mywebserver#via cygwin of course Telnet|cURL would tell me both things: the webserver is up and the HTTPD is answering connections. Would any one mind elaborating on the pinging a number v. name for me? Or is she right? Thanks in advance.

RE: setting up NTPd
ntpdate requires that the socket be open locally, so you have to shutdown ntpd before running it. ntpdate -d will bring back results either way, but will not reset the local clock. Once you get the time synced with ntpdate, just restart the ntpd. You can put the ntp sever in the step-tickers file and it will sync time at each reboot then start ntpd. See the init.d script.

Re: pinging a name vs. number
Whether you use the named address in your ping command or not,it's always going to ping the numeric address. The only thing using the name will do is show you that DNS is working.

Isn't pinging by name just the same as pinging by number, only adding a step for the name resolution? % ping 10.0.0.5 +-++---+ | work station - | 10.0.0.5 +-++---+ % ping myserver +-++---+ | work station - | myserver +-++---+ | | +-+ | DNS/WINS # myserver = 10.0.0.5 +-+ I added WINS here because, well, we have a Windoze LAN and the server in question is a remote Exchange server. I think what my esteemed MCSE colleague was wanting to explain that pinging is not as effective as telneting to the check the service in question. My understanding of the our network is that many times it's not our remote Exchange host, but the connection between us that is the problem, and pinging by name or number is just fine as a test. For instance if I wanted to check my webserver to see if it was up I could %ping mywebserver #OR %ping 10.0.0.10 #mywebserver But this tells me nothing about the HTTPD service. So I would be better off %telnet mywebserver 80 #OR %telnet 10.0.0.10 80 #OR %curl -I http://mywebserver#via cygwin of course Telnet|cURL would tell me both things: the webserver is up and the HTTPD is answering connections. Would any one mind elaborating on the pinging a number v. name for me? Or is she right? Thanks in advance.

Re: 3Ware escalade 6800
I just found out the problem. I wanted to write back and let everyone on this list to know what I have discovered. 3Ware no longer supports the escalade 6000 series. There for the card will not work in a RAID 5 mode on linux using RedHat 9. According to the tech support, they haven't worked on the drivers for the 6800 for 2 years. What that tells me is that i would have to buy new escalades every so many years when the on i have purchased for $650.00 can still do the job. I don't think i will be buying anymore 3ware on my budget. what i did to test. You can still install redhat 9 if you use RAID 0, 1, 10.

I need the synchronization to occur several time a day without ever rebooting. How can I achieve this? The ntpd service will immediately synchronize with the servers listed in /etc/ntp/step-tickers when the SERVICE is restarted; this does not mean rebooting the box but rather issuing the service ntpd restart command. This is only so that the time is properly synchronized right from the start. From then on, the ntpd service follows a complicated algorithm of scheduling queries to ensure that your clock is always in sync. Do not worry about it... the clock WILL NOT be synchronized once a day. It will be sync'ed probably once a minute for 10 minutes, then once every five minutes for 4 hours, then once every 15 minutes for 10 hours, and so on. (Not real numbers, just an example.) While this is going on, ntpd will change the value of /etc/ntp/drift, which is an internal correction factor for whatever error is in your hardware clock. With this correction, the ntpd service can use the hardware clock to keep accurate time for longer periods between synchronizations without losing accuracy. The result: low network traffic and very accurate time all the time. Just place one or more valid servers in step-tickers, configure ntp.conf, restart ntpd and quit worrying. You can later check that things are OK with ntptrace localhost. -- Rodolfo J.

routing challenge
Got a challenging routing problem, and perhaps some of you can help me. The network is as follows. We have 12 standalone nodes with wireless lan cards. The nodes are placed on a line, and the average distance between each node is 400 meters. With good wireless cards, that means that we can reach two or three node neighbours on each side of a node. (the nodes will be placed in the middle of nowhere, security is not the issue since the biggest security risk will be the ice and polar bears. This also means that putting up tp-wires is not an option) on each side of the line of nodes, there will be a server. There will only be people at the first server (beside the first node) The nodes will be collecting data, and we want to transfer the data to the server beside the first node. But we also want to be able to telnet into each of the nodes to be able to do maintainance (so we don't have to use a snow-mobile and get very cold each time there is a problem on one of the nodes) Any ideas on how to make a good enough network, enabeling us to communicate between the nods and the servers? regards Asbjørn -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Re: Specying an interface in Sendmail
The default config file in RH9 instructs sendmail to listen only on the loopback interface. To change this modify /etc/mail/sendmail.cf and then restart sendmail. e.g. service sendmail restart. Both methods below will modify sendmail.cf to listen on ALL interfaces. Modifying it to listen to a specific interface is left a an exercise for the reader. 1) Modify sendmail.cf directly. Find the line: O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA Change it to read O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp, Name=MTA 2) Modify sendmail.mc, then generate a new sendmail.cf with m4 Find the section in /etc/mail/sendmail.mc that reads: dnl # dnl # The following causes sendmail to only listen on the IPv4 loopback address dnl # 127.0.0.1 and not on any other network devices. Remove the loopback dnl # address restriction to accept email from the internet or intranet. dnl # DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl Modify the mc file as specified in the comments and generate a new sendmail.cf.

We have 12 standalone nodes with wireless lan cards. The nodes are placed on a line, and the average distance between each node is 400 meters. With good wireless cards, that means that we can reach two or three node neighbours on each side of a node. (the nodes will be placed in the middle of nowhere, security is not the issue since the biggest security risk will be the ice and polar bears. This also means that putting up tp-wires is not an option) on each side of the line of nodes, there will be a server. There will only be people at the first server (beside the first node) The nodes will be collecting data, and we want to transfer the data to the server beside the first node. But we also want to be able to telnet into each of the nodes to be able to do maintainance (so we don't have to use a snow-mobile and get very cold each time there is a problem on one of the nodes) Any ideas on how to make a good enough network, enabeling us to communicate between the nods and the servers? Hi Asbjorn, Sounds like a fun project. The first thought that springs to mind is that you treat each node as a separate network. Essentially a network of 1 with each node having a fixed IP address on its own subnet. Then run a routing daemon on each node that discovers its neighbours and shares that route information with each of them. This should give you some resiliency in the face of a single node dropping out. Obviously this is rather too complex to describe in detail here but you should take a look at routing daemons such as Gated or Zebra. Zebra is easier to setup and should do everything you need. Actually Zebra has recently been forked as Quagga so the place to start reading might be: http://www.quagga.net/ Good Luck, Sean -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

questions about building custom kernels.
I have never built a custom kernel before. In trying to follow the instructions under the RedHat Customization Guide I am not getting far. It starts out saying to copy the configuration file from /usr/src/linux-2.4/configs directory to the /usr/src/linux-2.4/.config. These directories are not present on my Linux box. I am currently running the 2.4.20-29.9 kernel. Where are the configuation files for RedHat 9? Why do they tell you to use directories that aren't present from a typical installation? Do I now create those directories? Okay, then move the configuation file to the new directories? First, I must download and install the source RPMS. Will this create the missing directories? Seems like the instructions should include this. Also, the SRPMS available for downloading are dated March, 03. Don't I need the current sources since I have done all the updates to my system since installing. BTW I downloaded the ISO for installing, but did buy the RedHat subscription service. Why aren't current sources available? Or, does it not matter?

Re: IPChains with RH 9? Protocol not available
Yes, iptables is way more versatile than ipchains, and ipchains is no longer supported in the redhat kernel by default. As far as i know, with iptables you can filter packets based on IP flag combination (a great feature), can limit the amount of packets received to prevent log file flooding (another great feature) etc. I recommend using IPTables.org firewall, it's a great iptables based firewall, it's modular and well supported, even more, the writer gives a less-than-a-minute support on most cases.

Many thanks for the reply and idea. I was wanting something similar to diskcheck in which I could set defaults, excludes filesystems and certain types etc, implement some warning thresholds and limit paging. I have some scripts for HPUX, so I might just try to port them. If I do, i'll post it. Thanks again. -- Marvin Blackburn Systems Administrator Glen Raven He's no failure.

Lots of ways to do this of course. One simplistic way is to add the following line to one users crontab file*: 59 * * * * df -h | awk '$5 80 NR 1' The user will be emailed a report only if any filesystem has greater than 80% usage. In the above example, the usage check is made every hour.If this user has a .forward file in their home directory the email can be sent wherever they like. One downside to this method is that the report will be sent _every_ hour until the usage is reduced.

Instead, simply download Abiword-2.0 from Rawhide. I *do* wish folks would read what others wrote. Mark, You're obviously frustrated but I think you should read what Michael wrote. If you noticed, I *also* tried the abiword-gtk* package, and the abiword-gnome* package, which I didn't mention. That's three seperate packages, and all of them had dependency problems where there should not have been. None of those have anything to do with rawhide, which is what Michael said. Why haven't you tried the rawhide packages? Took about 60 seconds to install abiword here. rpm -ivh abiword-2.0.0-2.i386.rpm fribidi-0.10.4-3.i386.rpm \ libwpd-0.6.2-1.i386.rpm Btw, *if* I read the info at rpmfind correctly, the frbidi0 package is supposedly only for *development, and shouldn't be needed, only the frbidi package should be necessary. And why can't it find libcrypto and libssl? Perhaps because you're trying to use rpm packages from another distribution rather than those released from RedHat ? mark, looking for answers to what he asked, not what words someone put into his post You really need to take your own advice. Even if Michael had made a mistake, which he didn't, a little grattitude for his attempt at helping you would be in order.

RE: setting up NTPd
You could just turn off ntpd and run ntpdate time_server from cron serveral times a day. I never really liked this, because you never really know what effect this might have on database data if you move time backwards. Tis a common thing to do in the HPUX world. -- Marvin Blackburn Systems Administrator Glen Raven He's no failure.

You mentioned the time sync will occur after a reboot. I need the synchronization to occur several time a day without ever rebooting. How can I achieve this? The ntpd service will immediately synchronize with the servers listed in /etc/ntp/step-tickers when the SERVICE is restarted; this does not mean rebooting the box but rather issuing the service ntpd restart command. This is only so that the time is properly synchronized right from the start. From then on, the ntpd service follows a complicated algorithm of scheduling queries to ensure that your clock is always in sync. Do not worry about it... the clock WILL NOT be synchronized once a day. It will be sync'ed probably once a minute for 10 minutes, then once every five minutes for 4 hours, then once every 15 minutes for 10 hours, and so on. (Not real numbers, just an example.) While this is going on, ntpd will change the value of /etc/ntp/drift, which is an internal correction factor for whatever error is in your hardware clock. With this correction, the ntpd service can use the hardware clock to keep accurate time for longer periods between synchronizations without losing accuracy. The result: low network traffic and very accurate time all the time. Just place one or more valid servers in step-tickers, configure ntp.conf, restart ntpd and quit worrying. You can later check that things are OK with ntptrace localhost. -- Rodolfo J.

Re: IPChains with RH 9? Protocol not available
On Wed, 17 Sep 2003, Mike Burger wrote: You need to use iptables. Iptables is now the default, but it looks like ipchains is still included. You would need to install the ipchains RPM and turn off or uninstall iptables--only one or the other can run at a time. And don't count on the Red Hat firewall config tools to help out any more. Note that iptables is generally a much more powerful and flexible protocol (and the wave of the future), so converting would not be a waste of time. On Wed, 17 Sep 2003, Reuben D.

I know it's old and probably iptables is better, but the ipchains script is a legacy code that I thought I just use it for now, to make things work, and probably convert it to use iptables with shorewall as firewall or something like that.
