Only if you WANT to use it.. you certainly don't have to.  While linuxconf
is a good administrative tool, I think most people are using webmin these
days, if anything.

Re: linxconf

2002-12-20 Thread Anthony Abby

 please don't.  it's a deprecated program.  most of what you
 want to do can be done with the new collection of
 redhat-config-* utilities.

by deprecated, do you mean not developed any longer?  I think it still
is... just not used by Redhat, but it's still used by most other distros. 
I used to use it, but now use Webmin instead.  linuxconf is still a good

Well I honestly can't recall if windows95 had a telnet client, but if it

type

telnet ip-addess (replace this with the ip you're trying to connect to)

You should get a prompt for a username and password... log in..

I'd use ssh though telnet is non-secure.

That's because your laptop requires acpi.  I'm not sure if Redhat has

The Linksys type products are very nice (and easy) for simple networks, but you are 
definately limited in what you can do with them.  The key to ensuring someone can't 
hack your Linux based firewall is to ensure you either use one of the multitude of 
diskette based distros, or if you are determined to use a full distro based IPTables 
version, ensure you run NOTHING else on that system.  No other daemons, other than are 
absolutely required to keep the machine running.  That means NO FTP, no WWW, nothing.

 The $60/year gets you a priority access to the queue when new updates

And let's put this further into perspective.  In several cases, there have
been in-the-wild security exploits.  If you are not keeping yourself up to
date, your system is vulnerable.  You may find that you have to go to a
mirror site, grab the updates and dependencies yourself, and then do an
up2date -p to tell the RHN servers that you've manually changed your
package list.  When 8.0 came out and RHN members got priority access to
the ISOs, you could forget about applying security patches through RHN
unless you were a paid member.

So the bottom line is that you can live without paying the $60/year if
you're not running a production server and can live with being not quite
current.  Alternatively, you can download and configure one of the free
clones.

The way I look it is for $60 per year, I get free OS releases and all
the patches.  That's a bargain, and I'm a paying RHN member.



Everything is available through the Redhat ftp site for free.  Not to mention multiple 
mirror ftp sites.  I've never paid the $60 fee and have never had a problem with out

Would reinstalling KDE rpms over RH 8 restore KDE to it's original,

The article I read on Linuxplanet.com yesterday indicated it was

I'd prefer a true KDE environment though.  I'm trying to find out if I
install the entire KDE rpm base over RH 8, if that will enable me to
start up in a true KDE environment, instead of the bluecurve.  

I can sort of understand why Redhat would want to do what they did, but
I'm not sure I like it.  They took too many liberties from what I read
into it.

Re: Newbie Question: Joining an NT Domain?

2002-09-11 Thread Anthony Abby

Chris, you're mixing up network terminology here.  Joining an NT domain has nothing 
to do with utilizing NT based DHCP services.  Joining a domain is for user and 
resource authentication and utilization.  You can set up Samba (http://www.samba.org) 
to allow your system to share resources with the NT boxes.  But even with Samba 
installed and configured, your system will still not be part of the domain. MS doesn't 
play well with others.

You also should not have had to set up a static IP for your Linux box.  It'll pick up 
all the references and an IP from your DHCP without having to do that.

The network architecture in my office is (briefly): An NT domain that hands out IP's

I was able to make use if the Internet at my office by assigning my Linux box a 
static IP outside of the DHCP range and just typing
in the gateway and DNS IP's. This works fine for giving me access to the Internet but 
I can't browse network folders or print to 
network printers. Can someone point me to how I do this?

Re: Newbie Question: Joining an NT Domain?

2002-09-11 Thread Anthony Abby

not be part of the domain.

False. Any Unix machine running a well configured Samba can be a NT
domain member assuming it has a valid SID.

You can hack around it, but you are not part of that domain. NT does not treat Linux 
systems the same as it treats other NT systems. You will never have the seamless 
integration into the domain that other NT/2000 systems enjoy.  Not anything wrong with 
Linux, just a fact of the domain implementation that MS engineered.



 You also should not have had to set up a static IP for your Linux box.

False, again. There is no reason not to use a static IP address.

What?  That's preposterous.  Of course you want to use dynamic IP's on workstations.  
And besides, no one said he couldn't use static IP's.  I said there's no reason why he 
couldn't use dynamic IP's.  Think about it... he's gettign all his references 
(gateway, etc..) from DHCP 



 It'll pick up all the references and an IP from your DHCP without
having to do that.

Quite the contrary, a machine without an IP address will behave as you
said.

Huh??  Not sure what you mean at all.  You set up your linux machine to grab an IP 
through DHCP and it does.  Cut and dry.  I've done it for 4 years now.  No problem 
what so ever in running Linux systems off NT based DHCPs.

NT doesn't even know it's talking to a Linux machine.

Yes and no.  Depends on what you're doing.  Especially with logging into a domain from 
a linux machine where your login script requires registry editing and such. Like I

As far as accessing shares and printers is concerned, a Linux machine
behaves exactly like a Windows one.

Things as simple as shares and printers yes, but there is a vast world beyond those 
simple subjects that have, and do, cause problems within a domain.  I speak from 
experience ;)

This dynamic/static IP address issue was my big misunderstanding (I'm an

No need to apologize to me... none at all.  If you have specific questions about how 
to integrate your system with SAMBA please pass them on by all means.  The SAMBA

Your users are recorded in /etc/passwd... just do a 'cat /etc/passwd' to

to see all the groups on your system run 'groups'.

Yes, in your terminal window just type cat /etc/passwd.  That will
display the entire list of the users with accounts on your system.  Most
of them will be system accounts.  Your normal users will be down at the
bottom of the list.

To see which groups a particular user is a member of, just type groups
name_of_user in the terminal window.

To see the list of all groups on your system type cat /etc/group in a

I'm not sure what error you're getting but if you have ipchains on and
iptables on at the same time, and try to run iptables, it's being
interrupted by ipchains.  There's nothing wrong with running chains if
you want, but you should turn one or the other off

Re: LinuxConf - seems to have dissapeared with 7.3

2002-08-16 Thread Anthony Abby

One point I neglected to point out.  Linuxconf is actually comprised of
several RPMs if you want the full GUI.  

Here's a description of the packages from their Redhat download page.


linuxconf: This is the main package. Everyone needs it.
 You do not need any X library to use it. 
linuxconf-gui: This is an optional GUI front-end. It works on any
distributions 
gnome-linuxconf: This is another GUI front-end. Pick this one or
linuxconf-gui. It works on recent distributions. Note that many
distribution ships an outdated version of gnome-linuxconf. 
linuxconf-lang-XX: This provides the language translations
 English is included in the first package. 
linuxconf-devel: This provides the tools and libraries needed by module
developpers.
 linuxconf-lib: This is the runtime for independant utilities using the
Linuxconf devel toolkit. 
linuxconf-util: This a a set of optional utilities, shellmod, for one. 
linuxconf-X: This contains various modules useful to configure X (mouse
and keyboard)

RE: LinuxConf - seems to have dissapeared with 7.3

2002-08-16 Thread Anthony Abby

I think this question is not so easy to answer as it might seem.  There
have in fact been some problems with LinxConf in the past, but in it's
defense I think that was more the case because there have been so many
changes in configuration files etc when you build a utility that
does as much as it does it can become cumbersome keeping up with the
development inherent in the different distros.  Case in point was the
shift from Redhat 6.2 to 7.0.  Does anyone not remember all the grousing
about Redhat's changes in 7.0??

I installed Linuxconf on 7.3 and it works great for me.  Have yet to
encounter an error.

That is really low indeed because according to last month's Linux

attain sustained throughput to the maximum on a 100mbps line
something like a sustained 90mbps or something like that.  I have a AMD
K6-200 that does way better than 2mbps!  And that's the stock Redhat 7.3
kernal with IPTables.

Re: iptables help

2002-08-14 Thread Anthony Abby

Shyam, you're best bet since you don't know IPTables is to turn off
IPChains in the service GUI and download Firestarter
(http://firestarter.sourceforge.net) and install it.  Firestarter will
write your IPTables for you and save them in /etc/firestarter.  You can
learn how to write your own rules by looking through the firestarter
files.

Bastille hardens your system against intrusions.  Setting IPTables is

run on a clean installation because it changes a lot of things, some of
which might undo things you had in place already.

Re: Linux Firewall and Linksys POS

There's nothing to configure... it does it all internally.  Just plut

 I just bought a linksys 4 port DSL router/gateway that supposedly does

 Question regarding the Linux firewall project. Can a Linux firewall 
 support most of the features of the PIX firewalls?
 
 I need to do the following (all at the same time)
 
 1) Let private addresses behind the firewall access the internet (DHCP)
 2) 'NAT' real addresses to private addresses behind the firewall
 ie: some.routable.address.1 to 192.168.1.100 (if you are familiar 
 with a PIX this would be a [nat (int1, int2) IP addresss netmask] and 
 then you would add X number of conduits to allow access to your services
 3) At the same time as 1 and 2 above, allow a highly-configurable method 
 for limiting access to ports (ie Allow some IPs thru the firewall, block 
 others, etc...)
ie: Allow ssh from ip address thru the firewall to ip address 
 (with the second IP address being 'NAT'ed thru.)
 
 By NAT, I man the following:
 
 I have a linux PC with an internal address, say 192.168.1.10. With a NAT 
 capable firewall/router, I can specify that the real address 
 64.58.76.225 is NAT'ed to 192.168.1.10 on the secure (internal) 
 interface. Thus traffic destined for 64.58.76.225 is routed to the 
 192.168.1.10 interface of the linux system (I think it does a packet 
 header rewrite). Also, outgoing IP sessions from the linux PC seem like 
 it is coming from 64.58.76.225. At the same time, you can define complex 
 rules delegating what source IP have access to what, if any, services on 
 the linux PC.
 
 Will a Linux firewall work in such a way?
 
 Thanks,
 Chuck

Re: Redhat 7.3 Install - Resolved - Thanks - New Issues

2002-07-21 Thread Anthony Abby

Ok, first.. I'm assuming you want to keep your SUSE install?  I've never
installed dual linux distros on a system before, but I would think that
one distro wouldn't care that there were other swap files on it  I'm
assuming you had plenty of unpartitioned space on your drive right?  I
usually use Partition magic to resize other partitions when I dual boot,
leaving at least 2gb of unpartitioned space for Linux.

If it will not allow you to create a second swap partition, I don't
think it will destroy your SUSE installation.  It'll wipe out the swap
file in it, but that'll just get recreated when you reboot into SUSE. 
Unless someone on here says otherwise I'm fairly certain that nothing
should happen by doing that. anyone???

Hey.. one thing.. you are using CUSTOM INSTALL for your Redhat install
correct?  if you are using any other install other than custom it WILL
wipe out your other partitions...

Adding Static Routes Question

2002-07-13 Thread Anthony Abby

Going to do something I've never tried before... building a Linux based
router/firewall.  Currently the box is running Redhat 7.3 and will also be
doing DNS services.  Both NICs are already installed... eth0 is
192.168.1.126 for the time being, and eth1 is 10.10.10.1.  Eth1 is connected
to a hub where other systems on the 10.10.10.x network are connected.

My question is.. how do I add a static route so that all the systems on the
10.10.10.x network can use 192.168.1.126 as a gateway?

 Subject: which NIC is which


 I'm building routers.  It's difficult to tell in advance which NIC will
 be assigned eth0 and which will assigned eth1 when using two NICs.  Ping
 testing usually clears up this simple problem.

 The identification problem gets worse when adding a third NIC, after
 sorting out the first two NICs.  Frequently the eth0 or eth1 assignments
 for the first two NICs change.

 Of course adding a fourth and fifth NIC multiplies the identification
 problem.  Yes, some of my routers are supporting five network segments.

 My question is, what's the algorithm for assigning Ethernet
 designations?  I know it not placement order in the PCI bus, and I know
 its not the NIC data-link address.

 So what is it?

 Thanks ...John

RE: Small company office setup - Windows clients, redhat server - Long post

2002-07-06 Thread Anthony Abby

should be /winnt/profiles/

Anthony


 I can answer the question about user profiles when converting a
 workstation
 from standalone to domain logon as I've done quite a bit of winders
 networking.

 When a user logs on the first time, winders will create a profile
 and a set of
 home directories.  They're all located under  /winnt/  in
 users I think.
 (It's been a while since I've done this under NT)  The user's
 subdirectory is
 named with their username.

 When you add the computer to the domain, winders suddenly sees them as a
 different user.  This is why the default settings are present
 again.  The new
 user folders are called username.000, but they're in the same directory
 structure.

 I've known people to rename profiles to get around this, but
 I've also known
 this proceedure to be glitchy.  My preferred approach is to copy
 the contents
 of  the username folder to the username.000 folder and be
 done with it.

 Hope this helps on that much anyway.

RE: Root password lost

Why not just boot into level 1 and reset your password?

Anthony

 
 Our root password has been lost or changed on our FTP server running
 7.1.  Isn't there a way to
 boot off of the CD and mount the drive and then edit the passwd file?

'Linux Single' at the boot prompt.  It's a maintenance level... When you log
in you are Root so you can reset your root password.

I looked at it, and although I haven't done it personally, it looks no

NTFS Support in Redhat 7.2

2001-11-24 Thread Anthony Abby

Has anyone had any experience with mounting NTFS
partitions with the base Redhat 7.2 kernal?  I want to
recompile my kernal (first I've ever done it) so I can
read and write files on my laptop (dual booted).  Does
the NTFS support support read and write???

Thanks
Anthony

RHN_Check from command line

Is it possible to run/use the RHN from command line (over telnet) instead of
from the GUI?  I want to update my systems remotely instead of having to
travel up to the NOC every time...

Thanks for any help

That's what I thought but I get the following instead:

 Yes - you can run up2date in text mode.

 You can administer all your machines from the RHN web pages:
