Rogue ICMP Attempts??

2003-09-24 Thread James Pifer
Hi. I have a strange problem. I have an RH9 machine that I've been using
to test OpenNMS. I believe my problem is related to OpenNMS but I can't
get an asnwer on their list. Hoping someone here might have some ideas. 

The following services are NOT started up on boot:
Tomcat4
Postgresql
OpenNMS

If I run Ethereal I see a whole bunch of ICMP attempts. What's weird,
and I guess good, is that all say destination unreachable, even though
they should be reachable. I can't figure out what process is doing all
these ICMP requests. 

It's doubtful that this machine is compromised being on an internal
private net, but anything is possible.  I ran a chkrootkit and
everything looks ok from there. 

I first noticed this problem when restarting OpenNMS. When it is
initially running I don't seem to have the problem, but if I stop it, or
even just restart it, the problem starts again. 

My current running processes are listed below. I haven't noticed anything 
out of the ordinary in the logs. Any suggestions? 

Thanks,
James

Re: PDF Converter on Linux/Redhat

2003-09-16 Thread James Pifer
Actually there are quit a few on Windows that convert many file types:
Microsoft Office Apps, Text, HTML. Some are free others aren't. A few
claim to convert almost any file type under windows. 

It may just be easier to buy one of these and run it on a windows
machine.  :-(

RE: PDF Converter on Linux/Redhat

2003-09-16 Thread James Pifer
Sorry for the late delay. Lost my d*** internet connection. Anyway...

I got a little more information. The web application sticks files in a
directory that need to be converted, like a before directory . So I need
a converter to periodically check that directory, convert the files, and
stick them in another directory, like an after directory. 

The application itself does not call a printer or print driver.
Unfortunately it's not something that I could easily change either. 

Sorry for the lack of details initially. 

Thanks,
James

PDF Converter on Linux/Redhat

2003-09-16 Thread James Pifer
Sorry if this has been asked before. I'm looking for a PDF converter
that will run on Linux for a web application. I did some googling and
found some that did specific things, like postscript to PDF, but not
enough. 

There are some apps that run on Windoze that will convert html, word
docs, excel docs, text files, JPG,  etc to PDF. I'm trying to find one
that will do these conversions on a Linux machine or else I'm going to
be stuck running Windoze.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks,
James

OT: Evolution Default Paper Type

2003-09-12 Thread James Pifer
Sorry for the OT post. Anyone know how to change the default paper type
in Evolution? Mine is set to A4. I cannot find anyway of chaning it
within Evolution.

Google search found a suggestion to use .lpoptions file. This didn't
work for me, but could be I didn't set it up correctly. I didn't find
anything on Ximian's site for this. 

I can print fine from the other apps, Mozilla, Editor, etc without
changing the paper type. I'm running Gnome. 

Thanks,
James

Yeah, you're probably on the right track. The Dell machine is a PIII
1Ghz and the AMD is a Pro 1400+. I'll see if I can copy the boot stuff

Swapped Hard Drives

2003-09-04 Thread James Pifer
I have two development machines both running RH9. The machines are
completely different hardware. One is a Dell Optiplex and the other is a
white box AMD. 

I needed to switch the hard drives to take advantage of the white box
AMD having double the RAM as the Dell. I took the Dell's hard drive,
stuck it in the white box, followed the prompts for adding and removing
hardware, and after setting up X, it's running like a champ. 

Taking the white box AMD's hard drive and sticking it in the Dell's
machine has not gone as smoothly. It gets to the grub menu, and then it
reboots. The drives were the only and primary drives in each system.

I'd rather not reinstall this machine since I had a some stuff installed
that would take a while to install again. Any suggestions on how to get
this one going again?

Thanks,
James

Re: Port Forward 1 Port

2003-09-03 Thread James Pifer
In this case another device isn't really an option. 

I tried this:
# iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p udp -d 10.96.5.5 --dport 162 -j DNAT
--to 192.168.1.18:162
# iptables -A FORWARD -p udp -d 192.168.1.18 --dport 162 -j ACCEPT


# iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source   destination

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source   destination
ACCEPT udp  --  anywhere 192.168.1.18   udp
dpt:snmptrap

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source   destination
#

It's not forwarding anything though.  Before anyone asks, the networks
10.96.5.x and 192.168.1.x are reachable. I have Ethreal running
capturing 162 on both systems. 10.96.5.5 is receiving tons of 162's,
192.168.1.18 is not receiving any. Tells me the forward isn't working. 

Any suggestions?

James

Re: Port Forward 1 Port

Very cool program, but I need to forward UDP port 162 (SNMP traps).
Sorry, I should have been more specific. 

Any other suggestions? Am I back to iptables? Can anyone assist with a
simple forwarding rule without going nuts with iptables?

Port Forward 1 Port

2003-09-03 Thread James Pifer
I have been googling because I know this has been talked about a lot,
but what I've found is overkill for what I need (I think).

I have a RH8 machine on a private net that has iptables but everything
is set to ACCEPT. I need to forward port 162 to another machine. Is
there an easy way to do this with iptables without having a full fledged
firewall running with a bunch of rules?

Maybe there's a better way of doing? I'm open to suggestions. 

Thanks,
James

hmmm, nope. Still didn't work.

Re: Troubleshoot wu-ftp

2003-09-02 Thread James Pifer
Thanks for the chkconfig --list. 

Dumb, the firewall was enabled. All I can think of is that at some point
I had the firewall enabled and disabled it manually without restarting.
Since this machine doesn't restart too often, when it did, it ran the
firewall again. Not sure. At least everything seems ok now.

Troubleshoot wu-ftp

2003-09-02 Thread James Pifer
I have a RH8 machine that I was using for ftp with WU-FTP. I had a
system crash last week where one of the disks was fsck'ed. Now for some
reason wu-ftp is not running. If I restart xinetd it says it's starts
two services in the messages log, but I don't know which ones. Port 21
is not open right now/

Any suggestions on troubleshooting this?

Similarly, I can't get an X-session to start either. Using cygwin if I
try to start an X session the new window pops up, but I never get a
login. This worked before the crash too. 

Thanks,
James

Run an app like terminal server

2003-09-02 Thread James Pifer
Is it possible to run an application similar to how M$ does it with
Terminal server?

For example, I run Evolution for all of my mailing lists. I find that I
need to do a lot of copying and pasting from my windoze machine. Right
now I copy and paste it into Outlook and send the message to Evolution,
then copy and paste it from there to the message I'm sending. 

Right now I look at Evolution through VNC or through an X session using
cygwin, but I still can't copy/paste directly. Is there any way to run
Evolution like a terminal server app where my windoze clipboard is
shared between the windoze machine and the running app? 

Any other suggestions?

OT OpenNMS install on RH9

2003-08-29 Thread James Pifer
Sorry for the off topic question, but I've been on the OpenNMS list for
several days and seeing very few posts coming through. Plus no responses
to my posts. Not sure what the problem is. 

I'm trying to install Open NMS 1.0.2 on Redhat 9. I downloaded the RPMs,
but when I try to install it says that rrtdevel...rpm needs perl
(Net::SNMP). Thing is, I've already added that perl module and it seemed
to install just fine. 

Is there a way I can verify that the module is in fact installed?
Any other suggestions on getting OpenNMS installed?

Thanks,
James

removing a windoze partition (but it's boot)

2003-08-28 Thread James Pifer
Hi. I have a system (RH8) that has the following:
(parted) print
Disk geometry for /dev/hda: 0.000-38166.679 megabytes
Disk label type: msdos
MinorStart   End Type  Filesystem  Flags
1  0.031  20002.807  primary   ntfsboot
2  20002.808  20104.782  primary   ext3
3  20104.783  22018.776  primary   linux-swap

5  22018.808  38162.219  logical   ext3
(parted)

I originally set it up as a dual boot for games on Windows. Since I
never have time to do that and haven't booted to Windows in a very long
time, I would like to get rid of it and make use of the space. 

Is there any way I can do that without having to reinstall RH?

Problem with RPM on RedHat 9

2003-08-27 Thread James Pifer
I'm running Redhat 9 on several systems. I just installed a new system
for testing some stuff and started having this problem:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# rpm --rebuilddb
error: db4 error(16) from dbenv->remove: Device or resource busy 

Well, it started when I was unable to remove an rpm, so I tried
rebuilding the rpmdb. I did some searching and apparently there is/was a
bugtrap on this, but that it has been closed even though no real fix is
available. That could be incorrect information. 

I tried moving the rpmdd to /tmp and rebuilding it, but I get the same
error. I can rebuild the system in question, but I'm concerned about
this happening on my others and what to do.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
James

Installing LogDispatch

2003-08-25 Thread James Pifer
Hoping for some direction here. I'm trying to install some software on
RH9. It's failing because it requires dispatch.pm. I'm using httpd that
gets installed from the dist rpms. Where can I find rpms for the
additional perl modules? I don't see them in the RPMS directories on the
CDs, at least not one for LogDispatch.

I've tried some I found at perl.apache.org but they say they conflict,
fail dependencies, etc. I've also tried ones I found with google but
having a heck of a time. 

Where should I go for these modules? Any suggestions? Should I uninstall
httpd and download Apache and the mods from perl.apache.org?

Thanks,
James

Linux Helpdesk?

2003-08-25 Thread James Pifer
Anyone running a helpdesk on Redhat? We're using a commercial product
right now (on windoze) that is both expensive and a lot of work to
manage. It has it's pluses, but it's getting to be an even bigger pain
the longer we stay with it. 

So I'm interested in an alternative, preferably something on Linux using
MySQL, postgresql, etc on the backend. I've searched an found quite a
few, both open source and pay for including:
Issue-Tracker
BestPractical
SupportWizard

Any have experience with any of these or any others for that matter? In
three years we have about 90K tickets, so whatever it is, it would have
to handle that kind of load, which I don't think is that big. 

Any input is appreciated. Thanks,
James

RH8 System locking up when using CDRW drive

2003-08-10 Thread James Pifer
Hi. I have a CDRW drive on RH8. Been working great for quite some time.
I usually use the webmin interface(I believe just makes calls to
cdrecord) to burn my CDs. I couple weeks ago I tried to burn a CD and
the system kept locking up part way through the burn. I assumed it was
something with the structure I was trying to burn and didn't have toime
to troubleshoot at the time. 

I had not used it since then and tried to blank a cdrw today with:
cdrecord blank=fast dev=0,1,0

Same thing. After 30 seconds or so the monitor goes blank and the CAPS
and SCROLL lights on my keyboard start flashing. System is not
accessible either on the console or from other machines. I don't see
much in the message log around the time of the crash. I believe these
are the relevant lines:
Aug  8 11:40:04 tweety kernel: scsi : aborting command due to timeout :
pid 56316753, scsi0, channel 0, id 1, lun 0 Request Sense 00 00 00 40 00
Aug  8 11:40:34 tweety kernel: scsi : aborting command due to timeout :
pid 56317186, scsi0, channel 0, id 1, lun 0 Test Unit Ready 00 00 00 00
00 
Aug  8 11:45:47 tweety syslogd 1.4.1: restart.

Problem with the drive?
Anywhere else I should look for clues as to the problem?

Thanks,
James

Can't extract cpio file

2003-08-07 Thread James Pifer
Can anyone give me a hand with this? I have a couple cpio files that I
need to extract. I can list the contents by doing:
cpio -itv < [filename]

But when try to extract using, cpio -iv < [filename], I get:
"cpio: [some path]: No such file or directory"

I'm logged in as root so I don't think it's permissions. Any
suggestions?

RE: named/Bind8 questions

2003-07-31 Thread James Pifer
Steve, 
Sorry, a couple more questions. I've been trying to find complete
examples of the named.conf on the net and haven't found any. The man
pages don't seem to go into much detail. Not sure how to modify mine.

Below is my current named.conf. Does the example you sent go above,
below, or replace my current stuff?
The view for corporate, can I have it forward any request for pca.com to
the corporate DNS server?
Also, I have a domain obrien-pifer.com. Would I set up another .hosts
file for the internal resolution and specify that on the file line? I
can't really create another zone with the same name, right?

So, internally www.obrien-pifer.com would resolve to 192.168.1.5 while
everywhere else it would resolve to the routable internet address.

Thanks,
James

named/Bind8 questions

2003-07-30 Thread James Pifer
1) I have my own DNS server for my domains. I now have a branch office
connection to my corporate office. At the office we have another
internal domain. 

I still want to use my own DNS server on my network for my lookups, but
need to also resolve machines on the corporate network. The next problem
is that the domain that we use at corporate internally is also used on
the internet by someone else. So putting the corporate DNS server as a
secondary doesn't work, because my dns server goes out to the internet
to try and resolve that domain. Then it fails to resolve that host.

So, that being said, is there any way for my DNS server to forward
requests for the corporate internal domain to the corporate DNS server?
I've tried adding the coporate DNS to forward queries to, but for some
reason it doesn't save it. 

Any way to do this?

2) One more. My DNS server is inside my network and my firewall forwards
DNS requests to it. If I'm on my internal network it returns my public
internet address, which is expected. The problem is my firewall will not
let traffic such as http to go out, then and then come back in. 

Besides adding a second DNS server, is there any way for the DNS server
to respond to external requests (through the firewall) one way, and to
respond to internal requests another?

Thanks,
James
the more I think about it the more I think adding another DNS server
might be the easiest

Freeswan Help

2003-07-28 Thread James Pifer
HI. I know this is better posted on the freeswan mailing list, but I
have been unable to join their list. Not sure what the problem is.

Anyway, I'm trying to get a VPN branch office type connection between 
freeswan and a Nortel Contivity switch. At this point I'm very close.
Looks like the session gets started but then I get some errors and it
drops. See the errors below. I'm doing shared secret, anyone know what
Invalid ID Information means?

By the way, I'm running IPCop and I think this is actually
SuperFreeswan. I have posted to their list, but it's more of a freeswan
issue.

Any help is appreciated.

What's the best way to resolve RPM dependencies?

2003-07-19 Thread James Pifer
I'm trying to install an application, GOPchop, which needs gtk-config. I
believe this is part of one of the gtk devel rpms. 

Every time I try to install one of the devels it fails dependencies. Try
to install those and they fail depenecies and so on. 

All the RPMs I'm trying to install are in the RPMS directory. Is there
any way for RPM to automatically figure out which ones are needed and
install them as well? 

Is there a better way to accomplish this?

My searches on google did not give me what I hope is an existing easy
solution.

Thanks,
James

upgrading doesn't help me.

Thanks for your help.

Evolution Copy/Cut/Paste

2003-07-15 Thread James Pifer
Obviously this question is probably best asked on the Evolution mailing
list, but I know a lot people on this list use Evolution. I use
Evolution for all of my mailing list subscriptions and for the most part
I really like it. Right now I'm running 1.0.8-11, which I know is a bit
old. 

One thing that really annoys me is the Copy/Cut/Paste functions. It
seems that you can only copy and paste when you are in certain fields
and at certain times. If I open a message for reading I can't copy the
text out of that message to paste into another one, unless I hit reply
or forward. Same with the Subject line. I can't copy/cut out of that at
all.

Is this common for Evolution?
Are the newer versions the same way?

If I were to upgrade my RPMs running on Redhat 8.0, where is the best
place to get the Evolution ones?

Thanks,
James

Ran it again with -f.
Then ran it one more time, this time no problems. 

Unfortunately I still have the exact same problem. :-(

Re: mailman help

2003-07-14 Thread James Pifer
Yes, in IE 5.5 SP2 I turned on cookie prompting and it does prompt me
for a cookie when I make the initial admin login. 

Then, I try to change something in the config page. When I hit submit it
takes me straight to the page for entering the admin password again. I
enter it again and it takes me back to the config page, but my change
isn't there. The second login also does NOT set a cookie, presumably
since it's already set.

Anyone have any ideas?

mailman help

2003-07-11 Thread James Pifer
Can anyone help with this mailman issue? I search mailman list archive
but all the hits were kind of old. 

I installed mailman, created a list, and I'm trying to use the web
interface to configure it. Every time I hid Submit Changes it takes me
to the admin login page and the changes are not saved. 

The only real change was modified the hostname in Defaults.py and
mm_cfg.py and changed localhost.localdomain to the hostname I want it to
use. That hostname is resolvable. 

Anyone know what the problem is?

Mailing list recommendation?

2003-07-10 Thread James Pifer
I'm thinking about running a mailing list on a specific topic. What do
people recommend for doing this? Mailman or Majordomo or something else?

There is a webmin for Majordomo, no idea if it's any good. Right now I
have mailman installed, but not sure how to do anything. I'm finding it
difficult to search for how to do things since mailman is used in so
many places. Plus I don't see a man page for it. 

Any howto's out there, I can't find one for mailman. (Maybe I'm making
this more difficult than it needs to be...)

Any other recommendations are appreciated. 

Thanks,
James

Re: RH9 home networking

2003-07-03 Thread James Pifer
IMHO you should use a dedicated system for sharing your internet
connection. All you need is a pretty low end desktop and you can load
any number of prebuilt products, such as Smoothwall or IPCop. There are
tons of others too. 

I use IPCop and had it installed in about 15 minutes the first time on
an old Pentium 233 with 128 meg RAM and 340 meg HD. Of course I have
some old systems at my disposal, so maybe it's an easier choice for me.

Need help with Lotus Notes on Wine

Converting old VHS home movies to DVD

2003-06-04 Thread James Pifer
I'm looking into how to take old VHS videos and putting them on DVDs.
These are my assumptions:

I need a video capture card for capturing the movies.
I need to convert them to DVD video
Burn them to DVDs

I have an AverTV USB capture device. It probably won't work on Linux.
Can anyone recommend one?

Let's say I get a capture device that works, what software on Linux do
people recommend for capturing?

This would be a good start, so I'll leave it at that. 

Thanks,
James

Wine on Redhat 9

2003-06-03 Thread James Pifer
I know this belongs on the wine mailing list and will go there if
needed. Just don't need yet another mailing list right now... I'm sure
most of you know what I mean

Anyway, I'm trying to install wine-20030508 on my Redhat 9 system. I
first tried the RPM but kept seeing people say use the source so you
have all the tools and everything gets setup right, etc, etc. 

When I had the RPM installed when I would try to start wineserver or
wine a program it would tell me no such file or directory. I tried both
as root and as a user. 

So I uninstalled the RPM and tried the source file. It won't let me run
it as root, so I logged in as a user and ran ./tool/wineinstall. I get
the following error:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wine-20030508]$ ./tools/wineinstall
WINE Installer v0.74

Running configure...

./configure: line 88: conf2782.sh: No such file or directory
./configure: line 89: conf2782.sh: No such file or directory
chmod: failed to get attributes of `conf2782.sh': No such file or
directory
./configure: line 201: conf2782.file: No such file or directory
./configure: line 949: config.log: No such file or directory

Configure failed, aborting install.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wine-20030508]$

Anyone know what is causing this? I googled for it but got no hits.

Since you've been so forthcoming, let me push my luck (and be a little
bit lazy), what would the command be for mkisofs if I just want to burn
a data DVD?

For example, I have a whole bunch of data I want to archive onto DVDs.
So let's say I have:
directory/data1
directory/data2
directory/data3
directory/data4

What would the command be to to burn data1 and data2 directories to a
DVD?

Thanks for all your assistance. I am interested in burning some old home
movies to, so at some point I'll have to tackle how to create the dvd
video files. 

Thanks again,

Oops, it is already installed. Sorry. Don't suppose there are any GUI
front ends for it?

That's why I was trying to use xcdroast and cdrecord-ProDVD. Supposedly
it supports it, I just couldn't get it to work. 

On the dvdrecord side, I assume you use mkisofs to create an ISO of the
structure you're trying to burn, then use dvdrecord to write the ISO to
a DVD. I'll check out the sites you sent earlier about how to use it.

Re: cdrecord-ProDVD

Hi. Thanks for the info. Do you remember having to deal with a lot of
dependency issues? I have a Linux 9 system that I installed
"Everything". I had to download transcode but it fails tons of
dependencies. Any good way of getting all the dependencies without
looking at it one by one?

Thanks,
James

cdrecord-ProDVD

2003-05-31 Thread James Pifer
Boy I could use some help with this. I can't burn a DVD with xcdroast.
I've tried following the instructions at these links but so far no
success.

http://www.fokus.gmd.de/research/cc/glone/employees/joerg.schilling/private/cdrecord.html
ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/ProDVD/README

Every time I try to burn a DVD I get an error that the cdrecord version
doesn't support DVDRW/R or something like that. 

Yet it seems like xcdroast does see cdrecord.prodvd (located in
/usr/lib/xcdroast-0.98/bin directory) because it lets me enter the key
for personal use on the options page. If that file isn't there this part
is greyed out. 

Anyone tell me what I might be missing?

Thanks,
James

GUI Tape Drive Frontend

2003-05-31 Thread James Pifer
Hi. I've just installed a new RH9 system that has an Onstream tape
drive. Looks like the OS sees it. What backup utilities are recommended
and are there GUI/X frontends for them? I did some googling but mostly
got info overload. 

Of course I'm interested in scheduling backups as well. Not sure if that
would involve cron or something directly in the backup software.

Thanks,
James

cdrecord-prodvd plus OT question

2003-05-30 Thread James Pifer
I sent this to the webmin list this morning but have not seen a single
message come across the list since. Not sure if it's me or the list. 

Anyway, I have a new DVD-RW. I have cdrecord-prodvd on the machine and
can run scanbus and get the results below (at the bottom). 

Is there a gui that works with cdrecord-prodvd? How do I take it step
farther? Is there any way to get webmin's CD Burner module to work with
cdrecord-prodvd? A wild stab...can I just replace the cdrecord
executable with cdrecord-prodvd's?

As usual any help is appreciated.

RE: LDAP on Redhat.

2003-05-30 Thread James Pifer
So the user would have an account on the linux machine. When they try to
login, redhat would look to ldap to check authentication? 

If so, that sounds pretty good, but what about other modules, such as
Samba? Since it uses smbpasswd, it would probably not use LDAP. Is that
correct?

James

LDAP on Redhat.

2003-05-30 Thread James Pifer
When you're given the option during the Redhat install to select LDAP
and specify an LDAP server, what does that really do? I know what LDAP
is, but when you enable it in this fashion, what does it do for Linux?

I looked over the LDAP howto, but I'm not sure that was referring to
LDAP in the same way. It seemed like it was referring more to running an
LDAP server not enabling LDAP support. 

Is there another howto I should be referring to?

James

DVD-RW on RH9

Hi. I'm trying to get cdrecord-prodvd to work on my rh9 system, but it
isn't seeing my drive when i use the scanbus option. The drive is by
CenDyne, but I think it's Panasonic under the hood.

What are others using for burning DVD-R/RW's on Redhat 8/9? 
Am I possibly missing something obvious?

Any help is appreciated.

Onstream SC30e and Redhat 8

2003-02-28 Thread James Pifer
I've searched google and found some hits on using Onstream tape drives
with Linux. All the ones I found were old postings, nothing very new. 

According to Onstream's web site there is now some support for Onstream
drives on Linux with a driver called osst. They even say it might
already be in the kernel. I'm running Redhat 8 with kernel
2.4.18-24.8.0. 

-How can I tell if I already have the osst driver installed? 

-I plan on using an Adaptec AHA-2930U2 SCSI card. Anyone know if there
are issues with this?

-Can anyone recommend a backup software I should start with, assuming I
get the drive working?

Any help is appreciated.

Re: Clustering on Redhat 8.0

2003-02-10 Thread James Pifer
Thanks, I'll visit that site. Is there a seperate mailing list for
people who know the clustering stuff? Or are you stuck with using RH
support? I'll check the web site you mention for a mailing list as well.
We have a copy of AS, but have had a lot of trouble getting it installed
on a couple systems. RH8 installs without any problems. 

Thanks,
James

Clustering on Redhat 8.0

2003-02-10 Thread James Pifer
I'm trying to get information about clustering with Redhat 8.0. I've
done some google searches, but not getting as far as I'd like. So I was
hoping to ask a couple general questions.

Can you use clustering with Redhat 8 or do you need to use Redhat
Advanced Server?
Is it built into 8 or are there RPMs to install?
I found a howto at www.tldp.org on clustering. Wondering if there are
either any better ones, or just a better set of instructions.

If anyone can point me to some useful information that would be great.

Thanks,
James

DVR anyone?

2003-02-10 Thread James Pifer
Anyone using Linux as a DVR? I came across a site that is an open source
DVR project. The main thing I'm looking for is what would be the
recommended TV tuner/capture card to run on RH8? Hopefully with input
and output plus easy installation.

Any recommendations and/or experiences to share?

Re: red hat 8.0 and vmware 3.0

2003-02-10 Thread James Pifer
I finally had a chance to install(upgrade) to VMWare 3.2 on my RH8
machine. It also has patch 25 installed. Unfortunately I still have
performance problems when a Windows 98 VM is running, especially when I
copy files to the host system through a mapped drive. 

I don't think it's a memory problem as I have 1Gig, plus this ran fine
when I had it on 7.3. Any suggestions? Should I do a complete uninstall 
and start with a fresh install of 3.2?

Thanks,
James

AverTVUSB by Avermedia

2003-02-07 Thread James Pifer
I'm probably be reaching here, but has anyone tried to get a Avermedia
AverTV USB TV Tuner device working on Redhat, especially 8.0? Avermedia
doesn't appear to have any support for Linux on their website. 

I'm interested in trying to setup a DVR to see how it works. Can anyone
recommend a capture card that is easy to install and can be used as a
DVR? I'm referring to this site for the DVR: http://dvr.sourceforge.net.
If there are other DVR approaches, I'm interested in that too. 

Thanks,

We're trying to install Redhat Advance Server on a Compaq Proliant 2500

always get the error that we don't have enough memory to install it.

I searched google for +Redhat +"you do not have enough memory to

Anyone have a workaround for this problem?

I've had no luck using ncpmount. I've downloaded and installed
nwclient+utils-4.2.2-2.i386.rpm. Plus I've installed
nkfs-4.2.1-1.src.rpm. Anyone used this on RH8 before?

nwclientd is running, but I can't see any NDS trees. I'm guessing I
don't have nkfs installed correctly. I tried to follow the instructions
located here: http//cwrulug.cwru.edu/docs/netware-howto.shtml.

I couldn't follow it word for word because they wanted me to use
nkfs-3.2.1.tgz, but all I could find was the src.rpm. 

Just wondering if anyone else has set this up on RH8 and might have some
input.

RE: ncmount - can't mount netware volume

I set the bindery context to the same context my user object is in. But
when I try to use the -b option I always get an error:

ncpmount: Unknown server (0x89FC) in login
Login denied.

Without the -b I get 
ncpmount: Unknown NDS error (-632) in nds login
Login denied.

Even if I get this working, I will be using this in a large environment
where controlling the bindery context and where the users are located
will be more difficult. Any other way to do it besides requiring them to
be where the bindery context is set to?

Invalid password. 

Anyone know what might be the problem?
Also, is there a better way of getting to Netware drives, maybe NFS?

Any help is appreciated.

Redhat 8.0 - G2 DL360 ---->>> DL360

2003-01-24 Thread James Pifer
I want to upgrade a server I have to Redhat 8.0. The current server is a
Compaq DL360. To make the upgrade easy I was going to build the server
on new disks using another DL360 and then just transfer the drives over
this weekend once it's up and running. That way I can always fall back
to my old drives if something unexpected happens. Problem is all I have
available is a G2 DL360. I think the array controllers are slightly
different in these two models, not sure what else is. 

Anyone know if I can build Redhat 8.0 on a G2 DL360 then move the drives
over to a regular DL360?

Thanks,
James

Re: red hat 8.0 and vmware 3.0

2003-01-08 Thread James Pifer
FWIW, I have VMWare 3 running on Redhat 8 with the patch
vmware-any-any-update20 installed. The previous post talked about a 19
patch so I assume I have a later release. All the kernel talk didn't
make any sense to me, but what I can say is that my RH8 machine
performed horribly whenever I ran VMWare, even with patch20 installed.
My machine is an Athlon 1.2 with 1gig of RAM. I don't run VMWare on it
right now because performance was that bad. 

If there's a more recent patch or workaround (that I understand... :-)
...) I'd love to try it. I'd be happy to share the patch20 I have if
anyone wants to email me directly. 

HTH,
James

Is Squid my solution?

2003-01-07 Thread James Pifer
I have a Squid(Proxy) question that hopefully can be easily answered. We
currently run a commercial Proxy Server where we pay for each client
that uses it. That's not a big deal except that we have a bunch of users
(say 200-300) that only connect to a couple web sites to do their job.
Instead of continuing to pay client licenses I think I could use Squid
(or some other open source proxy server) as their proxy. 

I've looked at Squid's web site at the FAQ, and based on that, I think I
can do it, but before taking this to my boss and proposing it I want to
make sure. 

Can I put up a Redhat machine running Squid and allow all users to hit
only a couple web sites? (I say all users because if they only go to
these couple sites it would probably be easier to just let anyone
connect if they want to use it as their proxy, hopefully without even
authenticating)

Is there another product besides Squid I should consider?

Thanks in advance!
James

Re: iptables and performance issues

2002-12-23 Thread James Pifer
Every takes longer to run. With iptables loaded webmin takes 30 seconds
load a page. With iptables off it's immediate. 

Same with applications in x windows. With iptables loaded xterm takes 15
seconds to load, while it load immediately with iptables either unloaded
or the rules flushed. 

My /etc/resolv.conf is:
search tnjinfl.com
nameserver 192.168.1.2

Routing table:

Re: iptables and performance issues

2002-12-22 Thread James Pifer
Anyone else have anything to add to this or can anyone give more detail
on how this is a DNS issue? I have a very similar problem as the
original poster.

I have two Redhat 8.0 machines, one has this same problem while the
other one does not. Both have the same DNS settings, ie they hit the
same DNS server. 

For example if I load iptables, both running the same script, one
machine immediately has problems with just about everything: ssh,
webmin, xterm, etc, everything is sluggish. The other machine responds
fine. I've never found a solution to this and could only turn off
iptables on the one having the problem. (not directly connected to the
net, so not a big deal really.)

But I would like to know what is causing the problem. 

Thanks,
James

RE: Help with RH 8.0 and VNC

2002-12-18 Thread James Pifer
This might work for you, although may not be the best answer. Once you
connect to a user VNC session open an xterm window (based on your
description I'm not sure you'll be able to) and run switchdesk. Switch
it to what you want to use and then as root restart vncserver or that
vncserver session. Sounds like a similar problem I had earlier today. 

Hopefully I didn't misunderstand the problem.

Dual Boot Compaq Proliant

2002-12-18 Thread James Pifer
I'm trying to install a dual boot Windoze 2000 Server/Redhat 8.0 on a
Proliant 1600. In the past when I've installed Linux on Compaq servers I
always put Grub on the 1st sector of the boot drive because Compaq uses
the MBR for getting to it's utilities. In this case I'm trying to dual
boot so I installed Windoze first so the the Redhat install sees it,
etc, etc. 

Problem is that I chose the 1st boot sector, but that turns out to be on
the second disk, not the first, so it goes right to Windoze. 

Anyone know how I can do this? Install Windoze and and then RH8 and
still be able to access Compaq's utilities using the F10 key. Do I have
to install RH8 in the MBR and then mess with adding Compaq's utils to
Grubs menu? (tried that in the past following Compaq's web site, but I
wasn't successful) 

Any suggestions are appreciated. 

James

Re: Troubleshooting lockups....

When it "freezes" the video stays exactly where it's at and no mouse or
keyboard input works. Console screen is locked up/frozen. Can't ping or
connect to any services. I believe the NIC is an Intel chipset(builtin).
We then have to power it off.

Troubleshooting lockups....

2002-12-16 Thread James Pifer
We have Redhat 8.0 installed on a Compaq G2 DL360 Dual 1.4ghz/133mhz,
512 cache,  1280MB RAM, Smart Array 5i controller. 

The problem is it locks up every so often. There's nothing significant
in /var/log/messages. Anyone having any problems with these systems? Any
suggestions on figuring out what is causing the problem?

We haven't done much because we're not really sure what to do in this
situation. No errors, no signs, all of the sudden, just stops It has
done this both with X windows running and with it not running. Right now
we're running top to see if it gives us any indications when it does
lockup. Any suggestions are appreciated.

SNMP Trap Collection & Deduplication

2002-12-10 Thread James Pifer
I plan on trying out some network management type software on Redhat 
8.0. I'm looking at playing around with OpenNMS, Nagios, and possibly
Big Brother. One thing I'm looking for is deduplication of snmp traps,
something like the commercial Micromuse Netcool product can do. If it
receives a trap that is the same as one it already has, it increases a
count or tally instead of looking at it as an additional trap. 

Anyone know of any open source software that can do this? It's my
understanding that these products don't collect the traps themselves,
but rather they somehow use Redhat's trapd service, but either way, I'm
trying to find something that deduplicates or recognizes multiple alerts
for the same problem and somehow groups them so actions aren't taken
multiple times.

I don't know of a better place this post this question. If there is
please let me know. 

Regards,
James

RE: GUI for Firewall admin

2002-12-03 Thread James Pifer
Jose,

What Redhat version are you running FWbuilder on? I'm trying to install
it on 8.0 and it a pain the *ss. I'm not a Linux expert and it's driving
me nuts with all the dependencies. Every time I try and install one of
the packages it needs it comes and tells me I have to install a
different package first. Anyone else have this running on 8? Maybe I'm
making this harder than it needs to be.

I have looked at their install docs on their website, which is what led
me to the packages I have right now. I've installed all the packages I
think I need, but it's still failing on libgdkmm-1.2.so.1 and
libgtkmm-1.2.so.1. 

Thanks,
James

Well, if you mean both drives as in the hard drive and the CDRW, no. 

I have 40gig and 100gig ATA100 drives on the primary controller. 
I have a cdrw and a 45x CDROM on the secondary.

Should I do this with Lokkit?

2002-12-02 Thread James Pifer
In the past I've used "setup" and selected "Firewall configuration" for
setting up my firewall (I assume this runs lokkit, at least they look
the same). I now have a Redhat 8 machine and as I understand it uses
iptables now by default. I'm looking for opinions. I have a linux box on
the internet and I want to allow some services, like SSH, SMTP, and WWW,
and I also need some ports open for a specialized app, say 11001-11020.
I can do this with lokkit, but I have to list each of those extra ports
individually. If I ever want to add a port to it, I have to enter it all
over again. I've tried doing 11001:11020 in the lokkit but that doesn't
seem to work. 

1) Can you specify a range of ports with lokkit?
2) Is there another config tool I should be using besides Lokkit?
3) Should I be using a custom firewall script for doing this?
4) Are the built in firewall tools enough, or should I add something
like FireStarter or one of the other firewall tools?

Suggestions are appreciated. (If I've worded something incorrectly or
incompletely please have mercy)

Thanks.
James

mailertable being ignored - Phase II

2002-11-27 Thread James Pifer
We reinstalled the server now using Redhat 8, which is what I ran my
test servers on. Sendmail(8.12.5-7) has the following settings:

/etc/mail/relay-domains has one line:
mydomain.com

/etc/mail/mailertable has one line:
.mydomain.com esmtp:[192.168.1.5]

/etc/mail/local-host-names has no entries

I ran "make" while in /etc/mail and it returned me to a prompt so I thin
kit ran ok. I restarted Sendmail. The damn thing is still relaying the
mail to the mail server at the MX record instead of forwarding it
directly to the server specified in the mailertable. 

What am I missing?
Thanks,
James

File Permissions and File Managers with Redhat 8

2002-11-27 Thread James Pifer
I've upgraded one of my PC's to Redhat 8 and so far like it a lot,
although I'm not thrilled with Konquerer as my File Manager.(obviously
running KDE) Can anyone suggest a better one?

Also, I have a second disk mounted as /disk2. How can I give myself
complete access to everything under /disk2 so I can read and write to
this drive at will when logged in as myself or as root?

Thanks,
James

Upgrading from 7.3 to 8.0

2002-11-26 Thread James Pifer
I have a system with an Athlon 1.2Ghz, 1 Gig of Ram, 40 Gig IDE as the
Master, and a 100 Gig IDE as the Slave. Right now I have RH7.3 installed
and the 100 Gig drive mounted as disk2. I would like to do two things,
install a small Windows partition (for games) and then install RH8.0.
One of my concerns is that I'm running Evolution and connect to several
mailing lists, including this one. 

I'm thinking of blowing away the 40 gig drive and then installing a
small Windows 2000 partition. Then install Redhat 8.0 on the rest of the
drive. My questions are these:

1) What's the best way to copy the file system from the 40 gig drive to
the 100 gig drive? That way when I install 8.0 I can get to all my old
files in case I need something? Would the simple cp command be the
easiest thing here? 

2) Assuming I don't screw up and blow away the data/partition on the 100
Gig Drive, will the Redhat 8 install see it and let me mount it again as
disk2?

3) Any suggestions on getting my current Evolution mail migrated to the
new installation assuming I have it all backed up? (via question 1)

Any suggestions are appreciated. 

Thanks,
James
