HELP! Kernel Panic: pivotroot failed 2
Hi, On boot, right after the root filesystem is mounted, I'm getting a kernel panic and it hangs at: pivotroot: pivot_root (/sysroot,/sysroot/initrd) failed 2 frees 236K of memory kernel panic: no init found. try passing init= option to kernel I'm using Grup to boot 2.4.9-21 kernel from /boot/initrd-2.4.9-21.img. I just fsck'ed all my partitions after a power outage. I used the RH7.2 install CDROM with the linux rescue option to use fsck on the unmounted partitions (I skipped finding the system), after which I was able to get into Grub and begin the boot. I can also now find and mount the system -- using the CDROM -- under /mnt/sysimage. Could anyone help me out with what is going on here? Michael __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Re: Configuring DNS on 7.2
I'm in the process of doing the same thing right now. Anyone want to debug some zone files? But anyway As far as what you mean by Linuxconf in 6.2 had a section to configure DNS, I take it you mean that you'd like to set up the DNS client side. This is relatively simple (compared to server side of BIND/named). It's basically just adding the IP addresses of your local nameservers (your ISP knows this) to the file /etc/resolv.conf in the format (3 maximum are allowed): nameserver aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd Check man resolv.conf for the full info. First, though, I'd recommend getting BIND 9.2.0 from ISC if you don't have it already. Do /usr/sbin/named -v to find out. RH7.2 ships w/ BIND9.1.3, so upgrade it. See ftp://ftp.isc.org/isc/bind9/9.2.0/bind-9.2.0.tar.gz for the tarred gzipped version. Then it's just: gunzip bind-9.2.0.tar.gz tar -x -f bind-9.2.0.tar cd /path/to/bind-9.2.0 ./configure --with-openssl make make install but you may want to less README for any other configure options. BIND9.2.0 installs into /usr/local so I just did mv /usr/sbin/named /usr/sbin/named-9.1.3 mv /usr/local/sbin/named /usr/local/sbin/named-9.2.0 ln -s named-9.2.0 /usr/local/sbin/named ln -s /usr/local/sbin/named /usr/sbin/named to maintain RH7.2 consistency. If you have a global static IP address, you may want to consider operating a DNS server yourself. Here's a good reference, albeit a bit myopic, since the authors seem to assume you know what they know already (in which case you wouldn't be reading this), but it describes the config options: http://www.nominum.com/resources/documentation/Bv9ARM.pdf the BIND 9 Administrative Reference Manual (hey, it's authoritative). You may then want to add your IP address to the first nameserver line of /etc/resolv.conf. I've found this makes browsing s much faster, it's amazing, particularly if your ISP is Qwest :/ . You may also want to do something like run named as its own user in a chroot jail for security; if so, see the Chroot-BIND-HOWTO. If you have a webserver running off a global static IP and have your own domain name and want to host your own namneserver, then reading the section on zone files in the DNS and BIND O'reilly book is a *GOOD IDEA*. Or there's always bindconf See my previous posts here and in redhat-install-list about GUIs. Uck!

Re: Resin with Apache install question
And to complicate matters, it appears that in RH7.2, apache gets installed in /etc/httpd, /usr/include/apache, /var/www, and /var/log/httpd, the last two being symlinked from /etc/httpd. So how would one instruct the configure to set things up with ServerRoot = /etc/httpd but with /usr/include/apache for the module header files?

This is tricky ... technically the server root is /etc/httpd if that's what they mean. I interpreted that differently. If what it wants is the top level directory that contains the bin/, lib/, include/, et al. for Apache, that would be /usr, if you're using the rpm install of Apache. If you installed apache to /usr/local/apache_1.3.22, for instance, then /usr/local/apache_1.3.22 would be the value of interest, given my interpretation.

Re: Unable to see SMB Shares from a Win Machine
Thanks George, I tried using webmin but I think I'd rather fully understand and tweak config file settings, since I was better off pre-webmin in terms of what the XP boxen could access. I haven't been able to get SWAT to work since I installed webmin either. It is greyed out in the KDE service configuration app, and I don't see it anywhere in /etc/rc.d/init.d, so I tried root# /usr/sbin/swat -s /etc/samba/smb.conf and I still cannot connect to port 901 on any interface, including 127.0.0.1.

How do I resize ext3 partitions?
Hi all, I've a few questions on resizing fs/partitions, and I can't find answers in any docs or LDP. Please help! Does the resize2fs tool work for ext3 filesystems as well? If not, what do I use? Do I lose all the data in the partition by shrinking or growing it w/ fdisk? If so, how do I relabel the mount point after backing up? What is a reiserfs? Does anyone have better recommended sizes for partitions for the following: ~p/vol~ ~mount point~ ~full~ ~current size (use)~ ~new size/full~ hda15/ 8.9% 5GB 1GB / 44.5% hda1 /boot 36.2% 48MB 48MB / 36.2% hda6 /home 7.5% 2GB (40 users max)6GB / 2.5% hda13/tmp7.9% 1200MB1200MB / 7.9% hda9 /usr 62.5% 5GB 9GB / 34.7% hda12/usr/tmp7.2%400MB 400MB / 7.2% hda8 /var6.6% 5GB 1GB / 33.0% hda10/var/ftp5.8% 5GB (100MB/user) 5GB / 5.8% hda14/var/log8.4% 1GB 1GB / 8.4% hda5 /var/spool 9.4% 1GB 1GB / 9.4% hda7 /var/spool/mail 5.7% 5GB (100MB/user) 5GB / 5.7% hda11/var/tmp7.2%400MB 400MB / 7.2% hda2*/var/www5.3% 20GB (500MB/user) 20GB / 5.3% hda16swap--- 2GB (1GB RAM) 2GB / --- *hda2 is physically after hda4 on the disk; hda1 is first; hd5-16 are in order within hda4 on the disk.

Samba client and server problems
Hi all, 1) is there a better list for Samba client/server q's? if not... 2) I cannot browse to lan: on my RH7.2 box while all WinXP boxen can browse to workgroup (smb.conf has workgroup name correct) and still I cannot after configuring with webmin. 3) before webmin, I could see my RH7.2 box from WinXP boxen, but could not authenticate -- it would keep prompting for user/pw in WinXP -- and now after webmin, I cannot see my RH7.2 box at all in the workgroup I have done the mksmbpasswd command thingy and then removed all lines from smbpasswd that I didn't want connecting from WinXP boxen. I then used webmin to specifically make those users and groups invalid. Webmin added a few lines, like socket address and socket options for which the respective values are the IP addresses (10.0.0.254 127.0.0.1) on which I'm listening for SMB, and TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192.

How do I set multiple IP addresses for ethX
Hi all, Is there a simple config file which I can edit which will let me have multiple IP addresses for a single interface (eth0 and eth1)? I tried using Webmin to no avail -- I changed the settings (added eth0:2 and eth0:3 and eth0:5 -- do they have to be sequential or something?) in Webmin appropriately but none of the added interfaces work after restarting the network, although the IP originally assigned does work. I restarted the network by /sbin/ifdown; /sbin/ifup which is how I've been doing it before because there is a iptables problem with the network as bootup and I have to manually start both of them (iptables or firestarter, and network eth0 and eth1 both hang at bootup, leaving me to interactively process startup then start the network later). IP masqing for the WinXP boxen is working using firestarter or you wouldn't be reading this email sent from one of them at 10.0.0.5. I'd like eth0 to have four external global IP addresses (A.B.C.241, A.B.C.242, A.B.C.243, A.B.C.245) and eth1 to have up to 255*255 IP addresses on 10.xxx.yyy.254. Could I just string these in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and -eth1 so that IPADDR=aa.bbb.ccc.241 aa.bbb.ccc.242 aa.bbb.ccc.243 aa.bbb.ccc.245 er, probably not, but something to achieve 3 virtual IP addresses?

Re: How do I resize ext3 partitions?
Thanks for the reply Ed! That was about my fourth post on that question. I back up regularly to network via FTP to WinXP boxen and CD-RWs (Samba isn't working, see other post) so it sounds like I really want a clean install with the proper sizes, then restore the data, changes, etc. Does anyone have better recommended sizes for partitions for the following: No. Only you know what your systems are used for and what the impact should be if a given partition fills vs the tradeoff of wasting space (since each partition will have dedicated extra space). I personally like fewer partitions, but that's because I know what my systems are used for and have made my own tradeoffs. For my home server, I have a *lot* less partitions. Only you know how hostile your users are - ie, do they tend to gobble up disk space or are they more reasonable? Do they care if they fill your disks? Do they use massive amounts of storage one day and none the next? Do they clean up after themselves? Do they leave their mail lying around (eg, imap) or do the delete it right away (eg, pop)? I was wondering primarily about the /usr filesystem -- how big with a bunch of apps could it really get, say one of each of the best (like one, not 3 SSH Servers, one, not two FTP Servers, etc.) of all apps at doing anything -- could you hazard a guess as to how much GB might be used? Is 9GB reasonable or is that too small? I'd like to keep the filesystems which don't change much at between 50% to 75% full, and have the ones that do change much pretty much empty 10% full. I'll quota the /home, /var/spool/mail, /tmp, /usr/tmp, /var/tmp, /var/www filesystems, so no real prob there -- but I would expect hostile users, so any insight there would be helpful. I'll get another 60 or 80 GB drive when this one's full, then another, then another. What is a reiserfs? http://www.reiserfs.org 'k...ty. BTW, why is this info not in HOWTOs or man pages? There is information in the Red Hat supplied documentation on how systems could be partitioned But I am to understand that there is no resize tool like resize2fs for ext3 filesystems, then, nor is the procedure documented other than general fdisk, which is not exactly the same as resize? I dunno, it just seemed lacking where that point could have been clarified. I may have more strongly considered ext2, although I don't think I'll change it anyway Thanks Again Ed!!

Re[4]: RH 7.2 CDROM issue, Dell OptiPlex GX1
Gene, that's weird you had to do something special to get Nero working. I installed this RH7.2 system from ISOs dled from Gnutella and rh FTP and burned on Nero 5.5.4.0 on a WinXP Pro Corporate system using this relatively standard method: Open Nero to Nero Burning Wizard check Compile a new CD Next check Other CD formats Next check Create a CD from an image file Next Finish Opens to Open dialog box, where you can browse to an *.iso or *.nrg file Open Opens to Nero Wizard [Burn CD] window check Burn or Test and burn radio button uncheck Create image box (checked will simply copy the image file to a virtual CD drive) select write speed click Burn Opens to compilation burning window, which burns. Aside from accidentally dling the second music CD from the artist Enigma from Gnutella, everything went fine for me (yes, I actually burned it and tried to put it in the CD-ROM when it asked for CD#2 during the install -- yes, I then went to rh FTP site to dl it!! ;) The installation didn't mind waiting tho' oops!).

GS On the CD's now: GS CD1: .iso boot.img GS CD2: .iso This is wrong. GS Do I need to expand the iso files or can RH install using them? The CD burner software you use should be able to expand them on it's own. GS PS. Do I need to use WinImage or WinISO, etc.? No. An ISO file is a single file representing the contents of a CD. All (that I know of) CD burning software is capable of creating a working CD from an ISO. Some have their own Image format as well. I don't use Nero so I can not tell you the exact thing to look for. What you need is something that says Create CD from Image or Create CD using ISO or something along those lines. This will expand the contents of the ISO properly onto the CD. You should wind up with the contents (once burned) looking similar to the RH 7.1 you have (of course not exactly as it is a different version). It should also be bootable at that point as well.

RE: How to (submit jobs to background)
I was commenting more on that in SCO Unix and DEC and others, the way you run in the background is with a pipe (|) immediately before the ampersand (). In other words, you pipe the command to the background (ie: sh% command | ) in Unix, like you pipe commands to grep or less. Obviously, this is not true in Linux, where one must not put the pipe, but merely the alone after the command. I wonder if there's a compendium anywhere of things that Linus changed when making Linux? I would imagine it would be quite large.

HELP! system hangs bringing up eth0, eth1 -- #8355;µ©#1046;#8362;#1573;#915; neat....
Hi again, When I used neat the last time, it said I had more cards than I really had. ifconfig -a reported correctly tho', and so I ignored the extra card reported by neat. (See what I previously wrote below.) This is only perhaps now more evidence that neat is broken and in real need of repair, since I then (perhaps foolishly) used it to swap eth0 and eth1 After rebooting (to make iptables work), the system now hangs at bringing up eth0: and at bringing up eth1:. I have to use interactive startup to get to a shell, or Ctrl+Alt+Delete after it hangs to reboot so I can enter interactive startup. I then tried swapping them back, again using neat, but to no avail (go figure?). ifconfig -a still reports both cards' MAC addresses as the same values which neat reports (well, I'd stop using it, but I had no way of verifying -- besides, this *could* be useful info, right?). I'm now writing this from one of the WinXP boxen the RH7.2 machine is meant to protect. Fun stuff. So do I have to reinstall, again, like I have been doing for something like 30 times now? I'm getting particularly good at that part, and I'd be able to fix my partition sizes without knowing how to resize a ext3 partition as I asked in a previous post Frustration leads to beer. Beer leads to heroin. -- David Talkington Thanks!! Michael [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- Michael Oatman [EMAIL PROTECTED] previously wrote: Hi all, Another question/problem...

How do I resize ext3 partitions?
Hi all, I've a few questions on resizing fs/partitions, and I can't find answers in any docs or LDP. Please help! Does the resize2fs tool work for ext3 filesystems as well? If not, what do I use? Do I lose all the data in the partition by shrinking or growing it w/ fdisk? If so, how do I relabel the mount point after backing up? What is a reiserfs? Does anyone have better recommended sizes for partitions for the following: ~p/vol~ ~mount point~ ~full~ ~current size (use)~ ~new size/full~ hda15/ 8.9% 5GB 1GB / 44.5% hda1 /boot 36.2% 48MB 48MB / 36.2% hda6 /home 7.5% 2GB (40 users max)6GB / 2.5% hda13/tmp7.9% 1200MB1200MB / 7.9% hda9 /usr 62.5% 5GB 9GB / 34.7% hda12/usr/tmp7.2%400MB 400MB / 7.2% hda8 /var6.6% 5GB 1GB / 33.0% hda10/var/ftp5.8% 5GB (100MB/user) 5GB / 5.8% hda14/var/log8.4% 1GB 1GB / 8.4% hda5 /var/spool 9.4% 1GB 1GB / 9.4% hda7 /var/spool/mail 5.7% 5GB (100MB/user) 5GB / 5.7% hda11/var/tmp7.2%400MB 400MB / 7.2% hda2*/var/www5.3% 20GB (500MB/user) 20GB / 5.3% hda16swap--- 2GB (1GB RAM) 2GB / --- *hda2 is physically after hda4 on the disk; hda1 is first; hd5-16 are in order within hda4 on the disk.

How would one block incoming socket creation to subnet via firewall?
Hi, I've been setting up a RH7.2 firewall for an internal network of WinXP boxen and I accidentally found once, but can no longer find how to go about blocking directional socket creation. In another words, I don't want GET requests and the like to reach the internal network, however, I do not want the reverse to be true -- I want (obviously) the WinXP subnet to be able to browse the internet, etc. Our old ISP (before RADSL and static IPs) had a Cisco 6400 IP concentrator/ADSL router that performed this task, amongst others. The RH7.2 is the gateway (10.0.0.254) in the internal network attached to eth1, and has a static IP attached to eth0. This machine will also function as a webserver, so I only want to block socket creation to the 10.0.0.x subnet, not to the machine in general. Could someone point me in the right direction here?

neat reports 3 of my 2 NICs
Hi, I just ran neat and it lists 3 network cards on the hardware tab. The problem is I only have 2 installed on the computer. ifconfig -a says I only have 2 (the correct ones), and neat does not have the 3rd device listed on the devices tab, although I can add it (name appears as eth2 in the select list). It then has zeros for its MAC address. I would assume I can delete this card, but my previous troubles began when I did the same thing, and then none of my NICs appeared in ifconfig -a, nor did eith card transmit any data, although the lights were on on the cards and on the hubs.
