That's what I thought. I have not needed the older kernels in quite some
time, and therefore will likely not need them in the future.

Good. Thanks!

One last follow-up question ... why do I have four kernel packages and
only one kernel-headers package installed? I'm assuming that this is
by design, and not an anomaly on my computer??

Thanks again!

Removing old versions of kernel ??

2002-03-04 Thread Brian S. Schang

Hello:

I have been using the 'up2date' utility to keep my Red Hat 7.2 system
current.

I now have several versions of the kernel installed. I can see them via the
'rpm'
command, and they also are available as options when I boot the machine.

If possible, I would like to remove the old versions. I have a few
questions:

(1) Given that I have been running successfully with the newer kernels, is
there
any reason for me to keep the older kernels installed?
(2) Can I remove the old kernels with the 'rpm --erase '
command?

Thank you very much.

That did the trick! Thank you very much.

BTW, the RPM file appears to have installed /usr/lib/php4/mysql.so file. I
suspect that this is the module that you referred to??

As far as I can tell, my php.ini file was not modifed by the install.
Nonetheless, everything seems to work now.

Thanks again for your help. I was quite frustrated...

Take care.

MySQL and PHP4 Not Working Together

2002-02-16 Thread Brian S. Schang

Hello:

I think that I only know about half of what I'm doing here. :-(

Anyways, I am running Red Hat 7.2. I have PHP4 running with Apache, and it
seems to be working fine.

Today, I installed MySQL via the binary RPMs from the Red Hat site. I
installed the following:
mysql-3.23.41-1.i386.rpm
mysql-devel-3.23.41-1.i386.rpm
mysql-server-3.23.41-1.i386.rpm
mysqlclient9-3.23.22-6.i386.rpm

>From the shell, MySQL seems to work fine. :-) At least phpinfo() works.

However, when using the mysql_connect() function within PHP4 code, I get the
following error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_connect() in
/var/www/html/phpinfo.php on line 5

This is the contents of the file: (just guessing at what to put here ...
just learning)



My problem is that I can't get the MySQL commands to work from within a PHP4
script.

I'm assuming that the mysql_connect() function (and many others) are in a
library somwhere that
I'm not referencing in some .conf file?? Or perhaps the "default" binary
RPMs from Red Hat are
causing me problems??

Lastly, if I remove the MySQL code from the code above, and run only the
phpinfo() function,
the result tells me that the ./configure command was run with '--without
mysql' (from Red Hat).
Perhaps this is the problem?? Is there a way that I can add MySQL support by
changing a config
file, or do I have to recompile PHP4 with '--with mysql'?

I'd appreciate any and all help.

Thanks.

I found /usr/share/ssl/certs/imapd.pem and imported the certificate into
Internet Options in the Win2K control panel. It seems to import fine (no
errors).

However, now when run I run Outlook 2K, I get the following message:

"The server you are connected to is using a security certificate
that could not be verified.
The certificate's CN name does not match the passed value.
Do you want to continue using this server?"

If I choose Yes, then everything seems to work fine. However, I'd like to
get the certicate set up properly so that I don't get the warning message
each and every time that I run Outlook.

Any advice and/or suggestions?

Thanks a lot.

I think that I found the IMAP SSL certificate in:
/usr/share/ssl/certs/imapd.pem

The file has an RSA private key and a certificate in it.

Do I simply have to import this .pem file into my Outlook root store?
If so, do I import the whole .pem file, or just the certificate portion?
Or am I off base here and still confused?? :-)

Thank you.

Outlook and IMAP SSL Certificates

2001-12-23 Thread Brian S. Schang

Hello:

As I only know enough to be dangerous, I hope that someone can help. I am
trying to get Outlook 2000 configured as an IMAP client and Red Hat Linux
7.2 configured as a IMAP server.

I installed the imap-2000c-15.i386.rpm package and have created an IMAP
"account" in Outlook. Everything seems to be working well, except that when
I first run Outlook, I get a certificate warning. It reads:

The server you are connected to is using a security certificate that could
not be verified.
A certificate chain processed correctly, but terminated in a root
certificate which is not trusted by the trust provider.
Do you want to continue using this server?

If I select "Yes", everything works well, and I am able to retrieve and file
mail as expected. However, I'm not smart enough with certificates to
suppress the warning.

I'm assuming from the warning that I need to somehow get Outlook to trust
the Linux certificate??

I would appreciate any help and advice that you can provide.

Thanks!

Brian Schang
