Re: RPM dead?
You probably have some stale locked files in your /var/rpm directory - they all start with ___somefilename. mv them to a different directory, run rpm --rebuilddb and try again.

Re: nfs newbie
Oddly enough, I have that same problem earlier today. Basically, make sure that you account for the reverse of each domain. Also, in the exportfs file, the server name you are putting in should be the client or the server that is going to mount the file system on (in this, A). Like so: On server A - /backup -rw=10.0.81.115:serverb.net,anon=0,root=10.0.81.115:serverb.net,access=10.0.81.115:serverb.net On server B - mount servera:/backup /mnt/backup (it will assume that it is a remote server with that format).

Its been awhile, and I hoped that my notes would remind me what the trick was... There is a change in printing between 2.0 and 2.2 and it also gave me grief in getting it to work (I started with 2.2.0 which had a bug in the printing system). The big change is how the printer drivers are handled, with Samba now going to the Windows RPC instead of LanMan. From looking at my setup I have a directory tree /usr/local/samba/printers with subdirectories of the various Window versions that we support, ./W32X86 and ./WIN40. Then in the smb.conf I have a [print$] share, that specifies this directory: [print$] path=/usr/local/samba/printers guest ok = Yes printable=Yes and the usual entry for a printer served by the samba server: [HP4500] path=/tmp guest ok = Yes printable = Yes postscript = Yes printer name HP4500LJ Then you will use the Add Printer Wizard on the Windows client to add the printer. It may prompt for a privilege user/password which I believe I used root's on the Samba server (at the same time I was setting our system up as a PDC). It will ask for the printer driver and it will then magically show up in the Windows printers box. The documentation for this can be found in /usr/samba/docs/htmldocs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.html in section 6 which should have come with the distro, if not check www.samba.org.

If I dont use the driver disk it will usually hang at the same step but about 1 in 7 reboots it will be accepted and the install continues as normal. But booting the newly installed system also only works about 1 in 7 attempts. It seems to be the driver usually tries to turn on 64 bit addressing which causes the box to hang. The times where it does work it disables the 64 bit addressing and seems perfectly happy then. Anyone got any suggestions on this? ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
Wierd password problem - root linked to user login.
Friends, We recently setup Red Hat 6.2 (server installed) and yesterday I had to go change the root password via linux single mode (the client couldn't su to root). At any rate, here is the problem. The client can't login with the user password that he set; however, he can login via the root password. So, when he telnet to box and login with: joeuser and types the password he is supposed to connect, he gets an error. However, login with the root password (with the regular user) logs in him. At that point, he tried to change the password for user. No success. When entering the new password, he gets the message: Password unchanged. So he su to root and tried to change the password from there. No go. Still logins with the root password. One would that it is an isolated problem. Except that when I add in another user (with the password I specified), I couldn't log with that password I choose with that user - but I was able to login with the root password. It is as if the root password is linked with the users on that machine. Any ideas what is going on? (BTW, passwd does have the SETGID correctly set).

Wierd... almost as if the box was hacked! I'd consider wiping the drive and reinstalling from scratch!

RE: Wierd password problem - root linked to user login.
Thorton, Okay, that confirms the problem. Now how to recover (short of reinstallation)? Had anybody every recovered from such an incident?

That definitely looks like you've been hacked. rpc.statd is one of those notorious security holes. There are updates fixing all the known exploits, but I'm guessing this was done before you had a chance to install them. The next part shows someone adding a user account 'sql' with the same uid as root. Basically, it is a backdoor account and has no legitimate purpose. thornton ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
RE: Creative Labs 128 Ensoniq (ES1371) supported?
Toni, The Ensoniq PCI card is supported in 2.2 and 2.4. When you run sndconfig, what happens?

Hi, Can someone tell me if the Creative Labs 128 Ensoniq PCI (es1371) sound card is supported under 2.2 and 2.4 kernel? I've found a lot of documents saying the above card works with Linux, but sndconfig doesn't recognized it:( Tks in advance.
