regular expression scripts,

2001-02-05 Thread Andrew So Hing-pong

Hi all,

I would like to ask a question about regular expression & patten
matching on the script writting.

test.sh
...
if [ $1 != "v[0-9][0-9].[0-9][0-9].[0-9][0-9]" ] ; then
   echo "Version must be vXX.XX.XX where X be a digit"
else
   echo "Version -> [$1]"
fi

I want to ensure the $1 must v00.00.00 (an example), but the result

#./test.sh v00.01.01
Version must be vXX.XX.XX where X be a digit

#./test.sh v[0-9][0-9].[0-9][0-9].[0-9][0-9]

john,

try to debug it on the following steps
1. make sure dns daemons is up 
   issue "netstat -a |grep domain| grep LISTEN" at 10.1.3.4
   if not here, that means u haven't up the DNS daemon

2. "telnet 10.1.3.4 53" at 10.1.3.5
if shown "connected" that means connection is ok.
if not, network problem.

If above steps cannot solve problems, I've u have to
conc. on dns configuration files, like named.conf or
/var/named

I really forget the actual steps. But I remember that
you must have some change on its configuration files,
something like allow to proxy from where .. .

Re: BSD & SysV

2000-09-30 Thread Andrew So Hing-pong

for initrd.img

Under the /boot directory, the kernel file must be bzImage or
vmlinuz-version. And one of most important file is initrd.img.
The initrd.img contains all the modules (driver). The kernel
loads initrd.img to RAM as RAM drive. Hence, when booting up
a linux, all the device, that are modules-enabled, will be ready 
for use.

try "man mkinitrd" for details.

I would like to suggest you are using syslogd to perform it.
Under /etc/syslog.conf, here is entry like
# The authpriv file has restricted access.
authpriv.*  /var/log/secure

This file is logging all the auth. stuffs, may be suitable for
yours. Of course, after editing syslog.conf, pls restart such 
services.

i think you should build up a (VPN) private LAN in order to let your
intranet via router going to internet.
I don't know the scale of your intranet. I've class C is OK.
The range should be 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0.
for details, pls visit
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/VPN-Masquerade-HOWTO.html

Hope it can help you !

Ben,

Did you load the "ip_masq_ftp" module before ?
You should put the following enties in the front of /etc/rc.d/
init.d/firewall scripts:

/sbin/depmod -a
/sbin/insmod ip_masq_ftp

Hope it can help you !

2. there should be has one ifcfg-eth0 and two ifcfg-eth1 scripts.
   delete one ifcfg-eth1 and make sure just one *eth0 and *eth1.
3. restart the network services
   /etc/rc.d/init.d/network restart

Hope it can help u !

I perfer intelpro100 one & realtek one rather than 3Com. 3com seems to 
be not interested with linux. Moreover 3com' 3c905 and 3c905b has got
the problem during intallation. Moreover, in the kernel source code, 
network card options part, intel nic is a default settings. Hence,
I've intel is a better choice. Of course, at last, it depends your
preferenc.

in fact, the limitation of the length of twisted-pair cable is not
so clear. All depend on the environment along the cable. If most noise or
electrical signal around the cable, then the connection length will be 
reduced becaue of the attenuation.
