HTB stuff

2003-10-05 Thread Alex
I downloaded iproute2-2.4.7-now-ss010824.tar.gz and I did patched tc with
the htb3.6_tc.diff from htb3.6-020525.tgz and when I try to use a htb script
I get just errors. I did not patch the kernel, since I use kernel 2.4.21 and
I saw on - HTB Homepage that I need to patch it only if I run version 2.4.20
or earlier. Do also need the kernel patch ? Or maybe is something else
wrong?

Hi list,

I need to mount a disk with a windows system to recover some files from

I have created a new directory this way:

Then I try to mount the disk this way:

mount /dev/hdd /mnt/alf

And I get this answer: /dev/hdd is not a valid block device

Then I try /dev/hdd0 and hdd1, and the answer still the same.
Are you sure hdd is the right device?
Do you see the drive in with 'cat /proc/devices' ?
WELL, I GET A BIG LIST. AT BLOCK DEVICES I GET THIS:

1 ramdisk
2 fd
3 ide0
9 md
12, 14, 38 and 39 unnamed 
22 ide1	 



Do I need to give any other instruction the the mount command?
Usually not. Mount complains about a device which isn't there.

regards
Klaus



If you're absolutely sure that what you want is on hdd, make
certain of which partition it is on.  First partition is hdd0,
second partition is hdd1.and so on.
Assuming that you do have a  directory in /mnt named 'alf' and
the partition is the second one (hdd1)---take a look
at /dev to make sure there is a hdd1.
go root then type:  (one continuous command)

mount -t vfat /dev/hdd1 /mnt/alf; cd /mnt/alf; ls -aF --color=auto

This should display the contents of alf.

After you do whatever,  unmount with:
 cd; umount /mnt/alf
This all depends on hdd1 (second partition) being where your
files are.  If the files are on the first partition use
hdd0.
The commands listed above make excellent aliases.

HTB - sperating metro and international traffic

2003-09-30 Thread Alex
Hello.
I need to separate international traffic (sites outside my region) and metro
traffic. I need this because I want to give more bandwidth to metro traffic.
I have setup iptables to mark packest based on destination, mark 6 for metro
ip classes and mark 5 for int. (every other dst)
Now I managed to setup a script but I don't know how would a tc command line
would be for international traffic. Maybe someone can give me a hint about
this.
I have setup 2 different classes for int and metro traffic and in my script
I shape only metro, but for int I'm a bit confused.
Something like:
/sbin/tc class add dev eth2 parent 1:2 classid 2:11 htb rate 50kbit ceil
100kbit prio 5
/sbin/tc filter add dev eth2 parent 1:0 protocol ip prio 5 u32 match ip dst
192.168.254.10 flowid 1:11
Would this be the correct commands?

Thanks.

Alex

---begin my script
/sbin/tc qdisc del dev eth2 root
echo "Deleted old root disk on eth2"

sbin/tc qdisc add dev eth2 root handle 1: htb default 10
/sbin/tc class add dev eth2 parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 10M

Dynamic bandwith allocation

2003-09-09 Thread Alex
Hello,

I curently have setup bandwith limiting by using cbq.init script to limit
about 100 workstations to a specific amount of bandwith, but I need to
change that to a dynamic bandwith allocation.

I'm using a rh9 router with kernel 2.4.21 and I want to setup bandwith
allocation dynamically between active users. If one needs more bandwith and
it is available, he must be able to use it. In my curent setup if I have
only one active user on network, his download/browsing speed can't increase,
he will always be limmited at a specific rate.
I also have local traffic (metropolitan traffic - a couple of ip classes
that some sites in my town are using and for which I have access at a
greater speed than the speed for external traffic, the rest of internet).
If it's necesary I will switch to HTB, it doesn't matter, the point is that
I need to get this done and the docs that I found on the net are a little
confusing.

I also need to prioritize interactive traffic (IRC and yahoo/msn messengers)
and ICMP ping (to impress my boss :-) ).

The documentation has done nothing but to confuse me in this situation.
Please help me with this!

Thank you in advance for any kind of help.

Blocking ymessenger from squid

2003-08-29 Thread Alex
I have setup 3 internet links, 2 for web traffic (loadbalancing) and one for
the rest of it (yahoo messenger, irc, email and stuff...). I have a squid
proxy for web which uses the 2 loadbalancing lines and I have bloked port 80
on the router for the users on the local net so they are forced to use squid
for www. The problem is that some of them are using squid proxy for yahoo
and msn messenger instead of seting the no-proxy option in these programs. I
need to block access to this type of traffic on squid! How can I do that? I
want to make them use the first line which is meant for this and not the
proxy server which exists to serve only web traffic.

Thanks!

Openwebmail & strange error...apache related?

2003-08-15 Thread Alex
I think this is maybe off-topic but I couldn't get an answer fron
openwebmail forum on sourceforge so I thought I ask you guys so here it is:
I was trying to get postfix and vm-pop3d to work with openwebmail but I got
a lot of errors so I decided to continue tomorrow and restore openwebmail
config so that I can work with it the same as I did before, until I figure
out what I was doing wrong with virtual domains setup. Now the thing is that
now after I put my username and password into the login page all I get is
this:

http://webmail.domain.com/cgi-bin/openwebmail/%2Fcgi-bin%2Fopenwebmail%2Fopenwebmail.pl
/>
At first I thought it was a browser problem... maybe IE got nuts on me, so I
installed mozilla but the same thing happed. I booted to Linux and tried
againg with Netscape and... nothing.
In my apache logs I get this: "POST
/cgi-bin/openwebmail/%2Fcgi-bin%2Fopenwebmail%2Fopenwebmail.pl HTTP/1.1" 404
1286

What am I missing here?

hylafax+samba

2003-08-14 Thread Alex Mamtchenkov
Hello, 

I have a problem with setting hylafax and samba.
Actually, everything works great, MS Windows workstations are able to
send fax through my samba server, but when, for example, the document
they want to send have any image (in my case there some logos grayscale
logos on a white background) this images are not converted in a right
way.

If a grayscale image on a white bg is send, the final fax has a
grayscale image on a dotten bg. How can I fix it?

Re: Samba errors

2003-08-14 Thread Alex
I know what OS LEVEL does and in my experience it's enough to put a value of
99 or even 65 to win browser elections over winnt/2000 adn that's why when I
got these problems I tried to rise the value to 150 because I don't know if
with a value of 99 samba will win over winxp, but as I can see this is not
the problem here... because I still get those messages, so I'm a bit
confused about what is really the problem.

Sure I did. I tried about 5 different postscript drivers including two
Apple drivers and three HP. The idea is if I make print to file being in

troubles defining firewall policies

2003-07-27 Thread Strider Alex Hunter
Hello there, 

First, thank you for the answers of my previous post. For any strange
reason my modem won't connect using the v.90 protocol nor i'll reach
faster rates than 31,200 bps (accurate connection string: CONNECT 31200
BPS/LAPM/V34/V42bis) but i believe that i have to play with the modem
strings harder.. the problem is that i've set the correct init strings
to connect @ 46,666 + bps and using V.90 according to the manufacturer's
manual and i can't achieve that under linux, something that i could do
using Win 2K / XP.  For the one who asked about the phone jack and/or
line.. Yes, i'm using the same RJ-11 jack and phone line. In any case,
thank you for your answers, now here is my new question:


i've got problems trying to configure my linux as a firewall via
IPCHAINS and i don't know why everything gets blocked when i am just
restricting high ports (7000 - 65535). 

I use RH 7.3 and my eth0 interfase is  part of the class C network
192.168.1.0 The IP of the linux machine is 192.168.1.4 and we share a
56K connection via modem (ppp0) using squid and some IP masquerade rules
to allow external POP3 and SMTP connections. All of the other computers
use the linux machine as their gateways so all the network traffic is
held by it.

Let's suppose that i want:

1) Grant incoming connections (input chains) for every IP of my network
to access every service of my linux machine, no exceptions.
2) Filter out incoming connections from foreign addresses that try to
use ports equal or higher than 7000. (i do not use the port 8080 for
HTTP / Proxy purposes)
3) Masquerade Ips of my network that want to use the ports 110 (POP3),
21 (FTP) and 25 (SMTP)
4) allow outgoing traffic from Ips of my network (from any port to any
port)
5) restrict outgoing traffic from foreign addresses wanting to use ports
> 7000

According to these rules, i've created the following rules:

Ipchains -P input REJECT
Ipchains -P output REJECT
Ipchains -A input -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j ACCEPT
Ipchains -A input -s ! 192.168.1.0/24 --destination-port 0:7000 -p tcp
-j ACCEPT Ipchains -A input -s ! 192.168.1.0/24 --destination-port
0:7000 -p udp -j ACCEPT Ipchains -A input -s ! 192.168.1.0/24 -p icmp -j
ACCEPT Ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.1.0/24 --destination-port 110 -j
MASQ Ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.1.0/24 --destination-port 21 -j MASQ
Ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.1.0/24 --destination-port 25 -j MASQ
Ipchains -A output -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j ACCEPT Ipchains -A output -s !
192.168.1.0/24 -p tcp --destination-port 0:7000 -j ACCEPT Ipchains -A
output -s ! 192.168.1.0/24 -p udp --destination-port 0:7000 -j ACCEPT
Ipchains -A output -s ! 192.168.1.0/24 -p icmp -j ACCEPT

When i try the above settings, everything gets blocked... External SMTP,
DNS queries, MS Messenger connections, even web surfing (having squid as
http proxy of course) why? Are my firewall policies bad conceived? Have
i used the wrong reasoning to create them? Are they correct but the
physical implementation is wrong? Please help. 

I also tried the other way, ACCEPTing every input and output connection
but using 7001:65535 as --destination-port and -j REJECT as the jump
policy but i got mixed results... I could use HTTP, check external POP3
accounts and send messages using the ISP's external SMTP server but DNS
queries were still blocked... MSN Messenger uses low ports, above 1000
but below 5000, i am allowing ingoing and outgoing traffic for foreign
connections and it simply won't connect, why? Same happens with yahoo
messenger.. I use squid as http proxy for these instant messaging
programs... Am i probably checking which ports outgoing connections are
trying to use? 

Is there any application out there (graphical or not) that could
accurately tell me FOR SURE which servers:ports are trying to connect to
which Ips:ports of my network? (and the other way too, which Ips:ports

troubles defining firewall policies

2003-07-25 Thread Strider Alex Hunter
Hello there, 

First, thank you for the answers of my previous post. For any strange
reason my modem won't connect using the v.90 protocol nor i'll reach
faster rates than 31,200 bps (accurate connection string: CONNECT 31200
BPS/LAPM/V34/V42bis) but i believe that i have to play with the modem
strings harder.. the problem is that i've set the correct init strings
to connect @ 46,666 + bps and using V.90 according to the manufacturer's
manual and i can't achieve that under linux, something that i could do
using Win 2K / XP.  For the one who asked about the phone jack and/or
line.. Yes, i'm using the same RJ-11 jack and phone line. In any case,
thank you for your answers, now here is my new question:


i've got problems trying to configure my linux as a firewall via
IPCHAINS and i don't know why everything gets blocked when i am just
restricting high ports (7000 - 65535). 

I use RH 7.3 and my eth0 interfase is  part of the class C network
192.168.1.0 The IP of the linux machine is 192.168.1.4 and we share a
56K connection via modem (ppp0) using squid and some IP masquerade rules
to allow external POP3 and SMTP connections. All of the other computers
use the linux machine as their gateways so all the network traffic is
held by it.

Let's suppose that i want:

1) Grant incoming connections (input chains) for every IP of my network
to access every service of my linux machine, no exceptions.
2) Filter out incoming connections from foreign addresses that try to
use ports equal or higher than 7000. (i do not use the port 8080 for
HTTP / Proxy purposes)
3) Masquerade Ips of my network that want to use the ports 110 (POP3),
21 (FTP) and 25 (SMTP)
4) allow outgoing traffic from Ips of my network (from any port to any
port)
5) restrict outgoing traffic from foreign addresses wanting to use ports
> 7000

According to these rules, i've created the following rules:

Ipchains -P input REJECT
Ipchains -P output REJECT
Ipchains -A input -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j ACCEPT
Ipchains -A input -s ! 192.168.1.0/24 --destination-port 0:7000 -p tcp
-j ACCEPT
Ipchains -A input -s ! 192.168.1.0/24 --destination-port 0:7000 -p udp
-j ACCEPT
Ipchains -A input -s ! 192.168.1.0/24 -p icmp -j ACCEPT
Ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.1.0/24 --destination-port 110 -j MASQ
Ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.1.0/24 --destination-port 21 -j MASQ
Ipchains -A forward -s 192.168.1.0/24 --destination-port 25 -j MASQ
Ipchains -A output -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j ACCEPT
Ipchains -A output -s ! 192.168.1.0/24 -p tcp --destination-port 0:7000
-j ACCEPT
Ipchains -A output -s ! 192.168.1.0/24 -p udp --destination-port 0:7000
-j ACCEPT
Ipchains -A output -s ! 192.168.1.0/24 -p icmp -j ACCEPT

When i try the above settings, everything gets blocked... External SMTP,
DNS queries, MS Messenger connections, even web surfing (having squid as
http proxy of course) why? Are my firewall policies bad conceived? Have
i used the wrong reasoning to create them? Are they correct but the
physical implementation is wrong? Please help. 

I also tried the other way, ACCEPTing every input and output connection
but using 7001:65535 as --destination-port and -j REJECT as the jump
policy but i got mixed results... I could use HTTP, check external POP3
accounts and send messages using the ISP's external SMTP server but DNS
queries were still blocked... MSN Messenger uses low ports, above 1000
but below 5000, i am allowing ingoing and outgoing traffic for foreign
connections and it simply won't connect, why? Same happens with yahoo
messenger.. I use squid as http proxy for these instant messaging
programs... Am i probably checking which ports outgoing connections are
trying to use? 

Is there any application out there (graphical or not) that could
accurately tell me FOR SURE which servers:ports are trying to connect to
which Ips:ports of my network? (and the other way too, which Ips:ports
from my network want access either to my linux PC's server:ports or any
foreign address:ports) Netstat is kinda basic and is not as accurate as
i want it to be, unless i am using it the wrong way.

Thank you in advance,

Paul D Fabre.

a little help with RH 7.3

2003-07-22 Thread Strider Alex Hunter
Hello! I've just subscribed to this list and i hope that someone can
help me

I have a computer where i have a Redhat 7.3 box with the following
hardware descriptions:

- Pentium MMX 233Mhz, 64 MB RAM 100Mhz., two 2.1 GB HDDs, 10 Mbps Lan
card and an external US Robotics 56K analog modem.

My eth0 interface has a private IP address that belongs to the class C
192.168.1.x network and the ppp0 interface dials an ISP service phone to
connect to the internet.

I use this computer to share the Dial-Up internet service with another 8
computers, i use squid 2.4 Stable 6 as a proxy and i´ve just allowed
SMTP and POP3 IP masquerading to allow non HTTP requests to go to the
internet, therefore SQUID controls the bandwidth and the few web sites
that i want my users to access.

Now, that i have described my network layout, i want to ask 2 questions,
hoping that you cvan help me:

1) SLOW PPP CONNECTIONS:

When this computer used to have Windows 2000 professional and Wingate
4.x i was able to connect at 4.5 - 4.9 Kbps rates. Now, with RH linux
7.3 i've tried everything in order to tune up the PPPD daemon, the
/etc/ppp/options file, modem strings, setserial configurations and so on
but the modem will only transfer at 3.5 - 3.8 Kbps only... what could be
wrong? is there something that i can do to finally boost the speed of my
dial-up connection?

2) KAZAA AND SQUID: CBQíng THESE CONNECTIONS:

I have a friend and coworker who uses Kazaa to download stuff... i´ve
allowed him to do so because he downloads cool stuff now and then that i
also like :P however, that takes over the whole bandwidth of this slow
dialup connection so i would like to know how to CBQ these connections
so that he can download at 2 Kbps at most since i cannot force Kazaa to
go through Squid and use delay pools to slow down his downloads.. or..
can i? ... his IP is 192.168.1.24 Please tell me if there is a way to
use Squid with Kazaa and use delay pools to limit the bandwidth
(although Kazaa only supports SOCKS servers)  or if i have to use CBQ
instead. If all i can do is to use CBQ, please give me the right script
to limit my friend's connection to 2 Kbps over this slow dialup
connection with the 56K external modem.

Thank you in advance,

Paul.

I need to setup a mail server for 3 domains and I was wondering if I can
setup sendmail or qmail so that I can have accounts with the same name but
for different mailboxes. Example:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] -> delivered to unix user: admin
[EMAIL PROTECTED] -> delivered to unix user: alex

Nectacct & mysql

2003-06-28 Thread Alex
Is any of you using netacct-mysql and netstat for traffic accounting? I'm
using this and it seems that it give the wrong count on the number of
megabytes passed in/out . Maybe anyone can help me with this.../me very
puzzled and clueless.
Here is my config: rh9 with kernel 2.4.20 which holds a private network with
NAT. I have also tried the same config without NAT, only with squid setup,
without any kind of NAT. I did some tests by downloading trough squid a 50
megabytes file and some browsing for 30 minutes and nestat only display
something like 2,3 or 4 megabytes...something similar...anyway nothing not
even close to the real amount of traffic (not counting the traffic generated
by the rest of the users on the privaet network ..and they did work on the
net at that time).

Thanks in advance for any hints on this!

squid and cbq

2003-06-13 Thread Alex
I have a squid server that provides www and ftp access to an internal
network but I need to limit the bandwith. In order to do that I have to set
the limits on the eth interface that goes to local net or on the interface
the goes to internet? I think that I sould set cbq on the interface to local
net, but with this type of setup, the squid server will still receive data
from internet at full speed. If I setup cbq on the internet interface then I
would probably only limit the upload or maybe not? I'm not sure, maybe some
of you can help me with this. There would be still a possibility, to setup
rules on the internet interface that will limmit the traffic comming to the
port squid uses to receive data (what port is that? don't know either), but
with this setup there is another problem: not all the users need to have the
same amount of bandwith, so how can I tell cbq to give more speed only to a
specific user when I have no NAT setup and don't want to either.

This is a puzzle for me, so maybe if you guys have any hints on how to do
this, you will share that with me.

Thanks.

ip route and 2 links

I have been trying to setup some type of load balancing by directing all www
trafic to a second net link via a second isp from which I have only one ip
address asigned and the rest of the traffic via the main link at isp1. I
needed that so I can do SNAT to a couple of routable ip's I received from
isp1. I'm trying this with no luck, and I was wondering maybe someone has
more experience with this type of setup.
I seems that whatever I do the packets only whant to go via isp1. I have

Postgresql

2003-06-09 Thread Alex
Hello,

Maybe someone can help me with this problem that I can't get past of. I have
the following scenario: RH9 with postgresql installed from dist adn I want
to install bbstatus, a tool for traffic accounting. This tool works only
with postgresql and it requires a database to be created, from an xxx.sql
file that I have in the archive. Now the problem is this: I started
postgresql for the first time from /etc/rc.d/init.d/postgresql start and it
says "initialising database..." and ok after that. But when I try to run
psql from the root console I get this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] sql]# psql
psql: FATAL:  Database "root" does not exist in the system catalog.

and If I try psql -U bbstatus -e bbstatus < bbstatus.sql I get the same
error.
The have created user "bbstatus" with useradd everything on on this side,
but postgresql only gives me errors.

What am I missing here? Any special config steps to take after I installed
RH9 (postgresql from redhat dist) ?

Thanks,

Alex

ip accouting

2003-06-05 Thread Alex
Did any of you worked with ipac-ng ? If so maybe you can give me a hint in
the following problem:

I made a cronjob for ipac-ng in /etc/crontab to run every 5 minutes. I saw
the first graph indicating 5 megs of traffic from my workstation. I said ok,
this isn;t bad since I've only browsed a couple of websites, but I wanted to
saw what does it look when I download something and...suprise...nothing
changed in the graph. I downloaded a 15-20megs file with 16kbytes/sec from
IE and it took about 10 minutes maybe more because the speed wasn't
constant. BUT, this is the tricky part: why ipac-ng didn't show an increase
in speed and in total byte count ?
Oh, well it inceased in total byte count, going from 5 megs as it was before
the download to 6 megs after I finished aprox. 20 megs.

So, what am I doing wrong here?

here's a part of my config file:

in-all |ipac~i||all||
out-all |ipac~o||all||

in-192.168.254.2|ipac~i||all|0/0|192.168.254.2
out-192.168.254.2|ipac~o||all|192.168.254.2|

and so on

Any ideeas?

Thanks,
Alex

patching bonding interface to support 802.3ad in kernel 2.4.20-13.9

2003-05-30 Thread Alex Sharaz
hi all,

I've been playing with load balancing IP traffic using the ethernet bonding 
driver.
Basically I've got a server with 2 on boards intel 1G network interfaces 
and I've connected them to a Foundry Fastiron switch with both interfaces 
on the switch configured to be a trunk.

The current setup *seems* to work fine ( the server in question hosts an 
apple darwin streaming server) but I've noticed that there are some patches 
for the 2.4 kernel on sourceforge.net to upgrade the bonding driver to 
support 802.3ad.

The problem I've got is that when I try and apply the patches to the RH 
kernel source 2.4.20-13.0 a number of the patches don''t work.
So 
should I be applying the patches to say, the 2.4.20 kernel source available 
from www.kernel.org instead of the RH source?

Has anyone got 802.3ad configured and working?

TIA
Alex

Hello there,

I just got an old webcam (at least it looks old) to play with it and I
wonder what software can I use for it. What I want is to have an image
from the camera every few seconds (approximetly 3-6 secs). I use RH9
(just have installed) and I tryed to find something to deal with my
webcam. The only apps I found was GnomeMeeting or something like that,
but I didn't found anything about automatic snapshots.
For now I try to use calorama program, but it can make only a picture
per minute, thats not enouh for me.

Please help me if you knwo how. 
By the way, I have "D-Link WebCam" (USB one).

XFree86-4.2.99

2003-03-27 Thread Alex Mamtchenkov
Hello,

I run RH8 on my PC and few day ago I have updated X server from default
one, which is included in distribution, to newer one (4.2.99). And I
made the same with KDE (from 3.0.4 to 3.1.1). Since I did it I have
problems with keyboard layout. The idea is that I need russian layout as
well as english. Before, I could switch to it using right Alt key (as
was written by me in my XF86Config), but after I have made an update I
have only one of two layouts, depending on what I have in the config.
If I have 'Option  "XkbLayout" "us"' in keyboard section, then I
have english layout and if I change "us" ro "ru" I have only russian (no
english at all and no option to switch to it). 

To change the layout, in previous version of X server I used this line
in config file: 

Option  "XkbOptions" "grp:toggle"

but it doesn't work anymore. How can I restore the function of switching
between layouts and to have both of them available?

Oh, ye, I saw that there is newer version of X server (4.3..), if I will
install it, would it solve my problem or not?

.spec uninstall section

2003-03-26 Thread Alex Mamtchenkov
Hello,

for the whole night through I was trying to create an RPM package from
source. What I managed to do was I created a .spec file in
/usr/src/redhat/SPEC, I put the .tgz file in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCE and
I managed to get an .rpm file in /usr/src/redhat/RPM/i386.

Ok, I can install it, it works, but what if I need to uninstall it?
After the installation only 1 file will be created
(/usr/local/bin/myaddr). When I run a "rpm -e ..." the packages goes
away from RPM DB, so if I try to repeat the same action I get something
like "The package ... is not installed" but the binary file still exists
in /usr/local/bin. In what was should I correct the .spec file to make
rpm remove the binary file after deinstallation of my package?

www.scsbroadband.com This company offers internet via sattelite 1 WAY -
downlink only, at high speeds, and the DBV card is used for this. The
request for the data you receive via sat is made via a normal isp coonection
(dial-up, isdn, anything). This type of connection if good if you don't need
video conferencing or if you don't want to play games on the net. These
applications require a fast connection both ways (up+down).

The tricky part with the dvb card is that it has a number on simultanious
connections (PID) around 30-50 on a regular card. How will this affect the
network?
That's why I want t know where can I get something better from what theisp
offers.

The distance between buildings never exceeds 500-650m. The number of
buildings is 27. I don't have any wires inside or outside the buildings
(network wires) and I must use a media convertor with 1 iniput for fiber and
2 outputs: 1 for continuing the fiber to the next building and another
output for an UTP connection to a 100mb switch that will connect the
computers in that building. The fiber optci cable does not have to be single
mode, I need a cheap sollution and if multimode is cheaper, then...

Large Network, need advice please!!!

2003-03-07 Thread Alex Iruc
Dear Sirs,

Maybe this is not the right place to ask this, but since I see that some of
you people have a lot of experience with this kind of stuff I will ask
anyway. (sorry if it's off-topic)

This is what I want to do:
I want to interconnect a couple of buildings that are located in a 15km
area. For this I want to install a fiber optic cable that starts from the
main server and it stops on the top of the last building. On  each building
I need to convert the optic signal to electrical signal so that computers
inside the building connect to the network via regular UTP100TX nics.

This very large network will be connected to the internet via a sat link
(downlink via sat-dvb card and uplink via a 256k wireless modem).

The questions:
1. What type of fiber optic cable do I need for this (I need a low cost
approach)?
2. can you give me some hints about what type of DVB card should I buy for
the sat downlink, a card that works good in Linux?
3. Are the any special considerations that I should take care of when I
install the Linux server or the network cables?

As a side note I want to mention that the network is designed to accommodate
about 200 workstations, and only 100-150 of them will have internet access.

Thank You!

Hello all.

I am running RH8.0 and Exim-3.x on my PC.

But why if I send mail to any other user (let say leonid) on my machine,
it goes to alex? Actually, I think, it goes to root, and then forwarded
to alex.
How can I fix it to make mail go to its owner except root, whos mail

It's possible that the extra RAM will not be automatically recognized. 
In case that happens, you will need to add a parameter to your boot 
loader configuration file (something like "append mem=1512M").

Hi list!

Are there any known issues with the rmic that comes with Java's J2SE

trying to compile RMI "hello world" code, just to test the

Re: up2date-nox broken?

2003-01-21 Thread Alex Mamtchenkov
Hello everyone,

Does anybody know how to get all fonts and encoding options in RH8.0 GUI
back? I have only few fonts like Sans,Luxi,Courier that are already set
on some encoding, but as I remember, there where such fonts as Heletica,
Arial, Times... wuth option of changeing their encoding as well.
I use KDE-3.0.4 and I can not see these things now :(
When I first launched the KDE, ir even didn't ask me about some
configurations (you know how it usually do at first start up). It was
already configured with RH theme (Bluecurve) everywhere and this things with fonts.
I removed ~/.kde/ hoping to see some changes, but almost nothing. The
same default RH theme and fonts.

How can I every font and encoding back???

Default KDE Fonts

2003-01-21 Thread Alex Mamtchenkov
Hello all,

I have just installed KDE-3.0.5 from rpms which I got from
ftp://ftp.kde.org/ and I realised, that I do not see fonts like Times
[Adobe] and like this in control panel -> Fonts.
I can see only Sans, Luxi and other. 
How it is possible to get back all default font that are in KDE?
First of all, these font that are now in my CP are too few, and
secondly, I can not set an encoding for them (I could do it in KDE-3.0.4
and earlier versions of KDE from kde.org).
Any Ideas how to add these font and encoding option to KDE-3.0.5?

By the way, I am using RedHat 8.0 :)

Redhat 8 Install on Old Laptop (Problem)

2003-01-10 Thread Alex
I recently tried to install Redhat 8 on an old Pentium-75 Laptop with
24MB of RAM (its actually a TI Travelmate 5300).

Since I don't have the CDROM, I copied all the ISO files to 10GB
harddrive (of which at least 8GB should be accessible) and did a
HardDrive install.

Everything seemed to be working fine until the part where the installer
attempts to detect the video card.  (Even though, I did a text based
install).

It comes back and says there is insufficient memory, reports an error,
and stops.

Does a TEXT based install of RedHat really require more than 24MB of
Ram?


My initial attempts of getting RedHat onto this laptop consisted of
putting the laptop harddrive on my desktop, doing the install, and then
moving the harddrive to the laptop.  This resulted in the laptop
mysteriously rebooting after the grub screen.

I guess I could use a different distribution, but I really like
RedHat... Is there a way to make this work?


Thanks

-Alex

Kernels and Graphics Cards Drivers...

2002-12-25 Thread Alex Réné








Hi guys and Gals… and MERRY XMAS!!!

 

I brought this one up before, but it seems to be an ongoing
thing…

 

I Installed RH 8 …. AGAIN… and as I was
finishing up the install and going through up2date, I realized – too late
of course – that  the kernel was being updated to 2.4.19 instead of
2.4.18 [ If I am not mistaken ] … Then I thought, shoot, There goes the
one about using my Geforce 4 again… THEN, I just ran the nvchooser app
from nvidia’s website, and followed the result: Install the src.rpm for
the nvidia kernel and the GLX i386 rpm for the OpenGL libs…Well it DID
NOT WORK, and I get all sorts of errors when trying to rpmbuild –rebuild the
src.rpm package... And using the source from the tarball is not gonna make it
better I suspect… I am not sure why it won’t work exactly…
Would appreciate any input though…

 

Anyway, I then thought “ well let’s just reverse
to the last known kernel version for which nvidia has a driver, and then we’ll
update the kernel only when the corresponding drivers are available…
Turns out I get error message when trying to install an older kernel package by
rpm, and I have no idea how to force the system to revert back to whichever
version of the kernel I want to use…

 

So, if anybody has any input either on the src.rpm packages
for the Nvidia drivers or on the reverting back to a previous kernel version, I
would really appreciate…

 

Thanks

KDE config files and /root hidden files

2002-12-16 Thread Alex RENE

Hi there!

I tried to move stuff out of my root dir. [ I know, I should have logged as a 
different user to work on my machine ] and accidentally deleted stuff in my 
/root directory...

Since then a few weird things have happened...

Mainly: I tried to open an openoffice document and the Open Office 
Installation program starts...

I can't seem to open Desktop shortcuts to folders, only the 'home" folder 
works.. I tried to reset the file types associations but it didn t seem to do 
anything...



So, beside EEEP  My question would be:


[ I know I cant magically recover the things that where deleted by accident in 
/root ] 

Is there a way to restaure default settings for KDE 3 without losing my apps, 
documents etc.??

Would an update to a newer version  "reset" somehow / somewhat my KDE 
environment, or is there anyway when installing an updated version, to force 
a "clean" install of the GUI???

Or do I have to reinstall my redhat 8.0 yet f.g again???

Try :

Possible conflict between multiple kernels and Nvidia driverinstallation

2002-12-11 Thread Alex RENE
Hi there... again...

I have been trying to install the updated drivers for my nvidia graphics
card, and it seems there might be a conflict during the install... To
summarize what I did:

I run RH8 on a pentium III => kernel-2.4.18-18.8.0 i686

Went to Nvidia website, downloaded an ran NVchooser app, to determine
what GLX rpm and kernel rpm to download => it told me to install 

NVIDIA_GLX-1.0-3123.i386.rpmNVIDIA_kernel-1.0-3123.src.rpm

Which I atempted to... It seemed to have troubles with multiples RH /
linux kernel present on my machine, which where not deleted after an
up2date or that where additional:

Here is what kernels I had in the boot loader when I first attempted to
install the drivers:

kernel-2.4.18-14 I think => i386
kernel-2.4.18-18.8.0 => i686
kernel-2.4.18-18.8.0debug => i686

When I suspected the conflict was due to Xple kernels, I then removed
the kernel-2.4.18-14/i386. Then I tried to remove the
kernel-2.4.18-18.8.0debug / i686 with [rpm --erase kernel] which
returned that there was no kernel-2.4.18-18.8.0debug installed...

I just ran [rpm -q kernel] and got the same result, only
kernel-2.4.18-18.8.0 => i686 is installed according to RH8... HOWEVER, I
still have the choice between kernel-2.4.18-18.8.0 and
kernel-2.4.18-18.8.0debug in the boot loader...

I am at a loss here, because I am not sure who/which is wrong: the boot
loader or the rpm database...

Also, could it be simply that the nvidia drivers dont support i686 for
the time beeing? I thought recompiling from the source should avoid this
pb...

Hi guys!

Me again… 

 

Reinstalled my machine with fresh version of RH 8.0 and KDE3
…

I am getting the same type of error message whenever I try
to install an src.rpm package (rpmbuild –rebuild): RH seems to be looking
for some files/libs/sh scripts that are apparently where it says it’s
looking for, but it cant seem to find them and I get an error on exit message…
I would copy and paste the output but that’s really long…

RPM problems

2002-12-04 Thread Alex Réné
Hi Emanuel, Hi Michael, and hi all…

Not sure what happened to my last posts, but anyway to answer the both
of you guys… and Emanuel: Sinagpour depuis 1 an et demi, avant ca Tokyo
1 an Hong Kong 4 ans San Francisco 2 ans Tahiti 1 an etc...  ;-)

The pb I had with lib required for installation happened with tar balls
[ I think that’s how you call them ] at configure time. The system
requested for libs that turned out to be “already” installed when trying
to install them….

As for the RPMs, I tried the redhat-config-packages from xterm, and here
is the returned output:


Traceback (most recent call last):
  
File "/usr/share/redhat-config-packages/MainWindow.py", line 163, in ?

Yes, sorry for being so approximate... I got them messages at compile /
rebuild time... IU also got the same problem trying to install software
from tar.gz : system asked for libs that turned out to be already
installed according to RH 8

Will try to reproduce the phenomenon

Tried the redhat-config-packages ... from the xterm window this time..

Here is the output:

Hi Emmanuel. First, thanks for baring with me.

Also ... Correct me if I am wrong but ... Je pense que tu es Français...
Peut être que nous pourrions continuer cette conversation en français
par email... 

If not, my mistake...

Anyway. It was not src.rpm's... I was in fact using Gnome: System
Settings > Packages to try to install additional packages from my RH 8.0
cds and also remove packages already installed on my PC... The process
starts normally, RH checks to see what pkgs are installed and reads
header info and then... woof!!! Everything disappears from the screen
and nothing happens... I also might add to this that I have indeed tried
to install src rpm's, and got errors about required libraries which when
I tried to install them, RH 8.0 just told me it was already
installed

I am at a complete loss by now, as I already have installed a lot of
stuff on my machine and don’t really feel up to reinstalling everything
yet again...

rpmdb corrupt

2002-12-02 Thread Alex Degen
Hello,

i tried to upgrade my system using up2date but unfortunately the /var runs out of disk 
space.
I copied all to a differetn partition with more space but now my rpmdb is corrupt.
if i do a rpm -qa i get:
rpmdb: /var/lib/rpm/Packages: file size not a multiple of the pagesize
Fehler: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Das Argument ist ungültig (22)

rpm --rebuild does not work.
What else can i do?
Thanks a lot,
Alex

  Did 
  you specifically test the monitor during setup?  Even if the OS probes
