POP Mail
Hey all. I've set up my system to receive email, and according to /var/log/maillog and my local 'mail' (from the command prompt), it's receiving it just find. However, when I try to access my server remotely, my mail program says that there was a POP3 error and that I should contact my system admin. My server is behind a firewall, and I've opened ports 109 (pop2 - both TCP and UDP) and 110 (pop3 - both TCP and UDP) to point to 192.168.1.10, which is assigned to the network card receiving outside connections (i.e., http, etc.). I've also uncommented the appropriate lines in my /etc/inetd.conf and restarted inet. However, netstat -apn | grep 109 returns tcp0 0 0.0.0.0:109 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 8879/inetd and netstat -apn | grep 110 returns tcp0 0 0.0.0.0:110 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 8879/inetd and this would seem to indicate that although it's listening to the correct port, it's not looking to the correct IP address. Right? If so, how do I get it to listen to 192.168.1.10? I've looked through various log files, but I can't find anything which would indicate what the POP3 error might be (which would be correct since it's looking to 0.0.0.0:109 and 0.0.0.0:110 rather than 192.168.1.10).

Ultra66 Performance
Now that I have my disk online and working, I ran a few diagnostics.
Unfortunately, I'm an idiot and don't really know if these numbers are
good or bad, so I'm hoping someone here can shed some light on this.
Here's the information on the disk.

IORDY=on/off, tPIO={min:120,w/IORDY:120}, PIO modes: mode3 mode4
UDMA modes: mode0 mode1 mode2
According to the promotional material, the specs of the disk are as
follows:
Western Digital Caviar 45.0GB EIDE Ultra ATA/66 3.5LP 5400RPM 9.5MS
Here's the disk performance:
# hdparm -Tt /dev/hde
/dev/hde:
Timing buffer-cache reads: 128 MB in 2.75 seconds =46.55 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 5.00 seconds =12.80 MB/sec
And here's the current settings of the disk:
# hdparm /dev/hde
/dev/hde:
multcount= 0 (off)
I/O support = 0 (default 16-bit)
unmaskirq= 0 (off)
using_dma= 1 (on)

nowerr = 0 (off)
readonly = 0 (off)
readahead= 8 (on)
geometry = 5473/255/63, sectors = 87930864, start = 0
Here's the info on the /proc/ide/pdc202xx. Although the promotional
materials state that the disk its ATA/66 and the PCI board is 66MHz, it
appears to me that it's running at 33MHz. But, again, you've got to
consider the idiot factor.

(1) I made the changes to /etc/lilo.conf as you suggested. (2) I removed the initrd reference in /etc/lilo.conf as mentioned in my most recent post. (3) I compiled aic7xxx support into the kernel as opposed to loading it as a module. My reasoning, convoluted and poluted as it may be was that ATA-DMA support didn't have a module option and was being compiled directly into the kernel, so maybe the SCSI driver should be, too. I don't think this was necessarily sound reasoning, but after chasing this shadow for almost a week, I'd grown desperate in my attempts to catch it. So now, I'm past the kernel panic. Still, although dmesg indicates that /dev/hde exists, fdisk says it can't open /dev/hde. I'll be danged if I know why, either.

Re: Promise Ultra66 FIXED (well, sort of . . .)
Okay, it finally occurred to me that my lilo.conf was wrong. Note: image=/boot/bzImage-ultra label=ultra initrd=/boot/initrd-2.2.17.img read-only root=/dev/sda1 append="pci=reverse ide2=0x78d0,0x78d3 ide3=0x78c4,0x78c7" This wasn't working because I was using the old initrd. By removing that line completely, the system came right up. Now I have yet another problem. dmesg contains the following regarding the drive: # dmesg | grep hd ide2: BM-DMA at 0x7880-0x7887, BIOS settings: hde:pio, hdf:pio ide4: BM-DMA at 0x7888-0x788f, BIOS settings: hdi:pio, hdj:pio hde: probing with STATUS(0x50) instead of ALTSTATUS(0x01) hde: WDC WD450AA-00BAA0, ATA DISK drive hdf: probing with STATUS(0x00) instead of ALTSTATUS(0x01) SCSI device sda: hdwr sector= 512 bytes.

According to the Ultra DMA HowTo, the formula is: RAID bus interface: Promise Technology Unknown device (rev 1). Vendor id=105a. Device id=4d33. Medium devsel. IRQ 12. Master Capable. Latency=32.

The SCSI device has never complained about being on IRQ 11, but just for kicks, I moved it to IRQ 3 with the same results I've been seeing for almost a week now. /proc/interrupts doesn't show it (because the only working kernel I have doesn't know about the Promise board so therefore doesn't see it), but IRQ 14 is where the Promise resides. /proc/pci shows it to be such. *sigh* -- Steve ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Promise Ultra66
Well, the fun just never ends with this new controller. This is a somewhat lengthy email, so if you're not interested, just delete it now and move on to brighter and shinier things. ;-) I've read and re-read the HOWTO on this, but I /cannot/ keep the system from crashing. It doesn't seem to like the co-existence of my PCI SCSI (from which I boot) and the Ultra66. Here's the applicable section of my /proc/pci: Bus 0, device 10, function 0: Unknown mass storage controller: Promise Technology Unknown device (rev 1). Vendor id=105a. Device id=4d38. Medium devsel. IRQ 14. Master Capable. Latency=64. I/O at 0x78d0 [0x78d1]. I/O at 0x78c4 [0x78c5]. I/O at 0x78c8 [0x78c9]. I/O at 0x78c0 [0x78c1]. I/O at 0x7880 [0x7881]. Non-prefetchable 32 bit memory at 0xfebc [0xfebc]. Based on this information, following is my /etc/lilo.conf. The label=linux kernel knows nothing about the Ultra66, and therefore boots perfectly. The label=ultra is the problem child.

I've tried pci=nobios. I've tried hde=noprobe. They all result in the following scenario. Much of what follows is a recap of my prior post, as I want to be as complete as possible. And just to be perfectly clear, the system BIOS is configured to boot from the PCI SCSI controller. I'm running v2.2.17, and I've applied the proper patch from http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/hedrick/ide-2.2.17/ and enabled the following in the config: Use DMA by default when available ATA Work(s) In Progress Promise PDC20246/PDC20262 support Special UDMA Feature Special Mode Feature (I don't know that I needed the ATA Work(s) option, but since there wasn't any documentation available for it, I threw it in for good measure.) The documentation for the Promise support option stated that I /must/ have the first option (Use DMA by default . . .). Also, just for good measure, I've flashed the BIOS on the Ultra card to the latest and greatest version. When I boot to the new kernel, everything SCSI goes south.

Fun with Ultra-DMA
Well, I'm just having a blast trying to get my Promise Ultra66 operational. (Translation: #$&%!!#&*^%!!) Here's the setup: I have an embedded PCI SCSI, which works perfectly. The BIOS is set up to boot off this device. I've added a Promise Ultra66 in one of the PCI slots, and the system BIOS properly recognizes it and the hard drive attached to it. I've downloaded the patch at http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/hedrick/ide-2.2.17/ (since I'm running version 2.2.17), patched the kernel and enabled the following in the config: Use DMA by default when available ATA Work(s) In Progress Promise PDC20246/PDC20262 support Special UDMA Feature Special Mode Feature (I don't know that I needed the ATA Work(s) option, but since there wasn't any documentation available for it, I threw it in for good measure.) The documentation for the Promise support option stated that I /must/ have the first option (Use DMA by default . . .). Also, just for good measure, I've flashed the BIOS on the Ultra card to the latest and greatest version. When I boot to the new kernel, everything SCSI goes south.

PCI Problems
I just installed a new PCI IDE board in my machine. It's a PCI ATA/IDE 66. The machine is completely SCSI, so this is the first IDE drive to be installed in the box. At bootup, the BIOS recognizes it as a PCI board and spits out the correct messages identifying the harddrive that is attached to it. Linux is having problems correctly identifying the board, though. The first time through, kudzu identified it as a RAID device. I modified /etc/sysconfig/hwconfig and removed the entry. On the next boot, kudzu again identified it as a RAID device, so I told it to ignore it and not add it to the hardware configuration. My /proc/pci contains the following entry, which I believe pertains to the card as I've never seen it before: Bus 0, device 10, function 0: RAID storage controller: CMD Unknown device (rev 1). Vendor id=1095. Device id=648 Medium devsel. Fast back-to-back capable. IRQ 9. Master Capable. Latency=64. Min Gnt=2.Max Lat=4. I/O at 0x7c20 [0x7c21]. I/O at 0x7c14 [0x7c15]. I/O at 0x7c18 [0x7c19]. I/O at 0x7c10 [0x7c11]. My /proc/interrupts also has a weird entry. Here's the last few lines: 14: 4218 4130IO-APIC-level aic7xxx NMI: 0 ERR: 0 I've never noticed the ERR: line before (although it could be normal, just that I've never noticed it before). I've compiled the kernel with PCI disk support as a module, and the insmod command works fine. However, when I attempt to access /dev/hda1, I get the following: mount: the kernel does not recognize /dev/hda1 as a block device (maybe 'insmod driver'?) Naturally, /dev/hda1 isn't being recognized because the system isn't seeing my IDE card correctly. Does anyone have any advice on how I should proceed from here? If I need to provide further info, just say the word. Thanks! -- Steve ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

yeah, aic7xxx.o is the module for my scsi board. like i said, if i boot to
the old kernel (2.2.12-20), it works fine. it's booting to the new kernel
that's giving me fits. for some reason, the system seeks to be trying to
load the old aic7xxx.o (i.e., 2.2.12-20) rather than the one compiled with
2.2.17.

I'm testing v2.2.17, and have run into a problem. While the kernel is booting, I get the following error: Loading aic7xxx module /lib/aic7xxx.o: Kernel-module version mismatch /lib/aic7xxx.o was compiled for kernel version 2.2.12-20smp while this kernel is version 2.2.17. kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k block-major-8, errno=2 VFS: cannot open root device 08:01 Kernel panic: VFS: unable to mount root fs on 08:01 Obviously, I'm upgrading from 2.2.12. Following are the steps I took: tar xfvz linux-2.2.17 cd linux make config make dep make clean make bzImage make modules make modules_install Everything /seems/ to have gone off without a hitch. All of the modules installed in /lib/modules/2.2.17 correctly. The following directories now exists in /lib/modules: 2.2.12-20 2.2.12-20smp 2.2.17 For whatever reason, aix7xxx doesn't seem to be recompiling or the incorrect version is being installed. I always assumed that when booting a kernel (such as 2.2.17), it would look to the 2.2.17 modules library. But for some reason (again, I'm assuming here - dangerous stuff), the system seems to be trying to pull the aic7xxx from the 2.2.12-20smp modules directory. Does anyone have an idea as to where I need to go from here? What am I missing? Thanks! -- Steve ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

make dep problems
i'm trying to recompile my kernel (2.2.16). I've been running 2.2.12smp, which was installed by default by RH during my 6.1 installation. I've make several recompiles in the past on 2.2.12, but I've just run into a problem I've never encountered. When testing the 2.2.16 kernel, it died on a kernel panic. After tweaking with the .config for a while, I decided to do a fresh install of 2.2.16. So, I did the following: tar xfvz linux-2.2.16.tar.gz mv linux linux-2.2.16 ln -s linux-2.2.16 linux I then copied my old .config into the new tree and did a make xconfig. After deciding everything looked okay, I entered make dep with the following results: make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16/arch/i386/boot' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `dep'. make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16/arch/i386/boot' scripts/mkdep init/*.c > .depend scripts/mkdep `find /usr/src/linux-2.2.16/include/asm /usr/src/linux-2.2.16/include/linux /usr/src/linux-2.2.16/include/scsi /usr/src/linux-2.2.16/include/net -follow -name \*.h ! -name modversions.h -print` > .hdepend find: /usr/src/linux-2.2.16/include/asm: No such file or directory make _sfdep_kernel _sfdep_drivers _sfdep_mm _sfdep_fs _sfdep_net _sfdep_ipc _sfdep_lib _sfdep_arch/i386/kernel _sfdep_arch/i386/mm _sfdep_arch/i386/lib _sfdep_arch/i386/math-emu _FASTDEP_ALL_SUB_DIRS="kernel drivers mm fs net ipc lib arch/i386/kernel arch/i386/mm arch/i386/lib arch/i386/math-emu" make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16' make -C kernel fastdep make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16/kernel' make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16/include/linux/autoconf.h', needed by `/usr/src/linux-2.2.16/include/linux/modules/signal.ver'.

Partitions
I'm preparing to install an IDE 45gb hard drive on a RH6.1 system. It's not a primary drive, and will mainly be used for extra storage of documents. I have a few elementary questions: 1) Other than making sure IDE support is compiled into the kernel, what steps do I need to take to prepare for installing this device? 2) What steps are necessary to get it properly formatted for Linux? 3) Would it be okay to devote the entire 45gb to one partition, or will it be necessary to divide it into numerous partitions? If I need to create more than one partition, how big should they be? 4) Also, I have a 4.5gb SCSI drive which currently mounts as /data on /dev/sdb1. Once I get the 45gb drive installed, all of the data on /data will be moved to the new drive, leaving /dev/sdb1 unoccupied. How do I go about (a) deleting the partition and (b) redefining it as /www? Basically, I'm wanting to move all webserver-related files to this one drive. Thanks! -- Steve ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

Securing FTP/Telnet
I've turned off FTP and Telnet access to my linux server by commenting out the following lines in inetd.conf: # ftp stream tcp nowait root/usr/sbin/tcpd in.ftpd -l -a # ftp stream tcp nowait root/usr/bin/ftpd -L -a # telnetstream tcp nowait root/usr/sbin/tcpd in.telnetd Also, I've set up my box to only allow certain IP addresses to telnet or FTP by adding the following to my hosts.allow: in.telnetd:192.168.2.2, 192.168.2.3, 192.168.2.6 and hosts.deny: in.telnetd:ALL So, the way the system is currently set up, only 3 machines on the internal network can telnet or FTP to the server. Telnet and FTP have been disabled, but ssh connections are currently working. I now have external users who need to access FTP and telnet services on the server (i.e., people from various locations with dynamic IP addresses). I need to ensure that both telnet and FTP are done only through ssh2. Is there a document that will walk me through implementing this, or can anyone give me a quick run through of what I need to do?

Port Forwarding Maybe?
I've been chasing a problem now for a few days, and it's driving me nuts. Hopefully someone here can shed some light on my obviously darkened (at best) understanding. Two NICs: 192.168.2.1 - internal network 192.168.1.10 - connects to DSL router 192.168.1.254 - DSL router/Modem I'm trying to let the external world access an internal webserver. On the DSL router (Cayman 3220-H), I've created a pinhole for incoming requests to port 80. Following are the scenarios: - If I point the pinhole to 192.168.2.1, attempting to access my webserver from outside the network results in a timeout. - If I point the pinhold to 192.168.1.10 and use ipmasqadm portfw -a -P tcp -L 192.168.1.10 80 -R 192.168.2.1 80, the system responds that the page contains no data. I'm specifically requesting http://66.xxx.xxx.xxx/index.html, which does exist. - If I configure Apache to listen to 192.168.1.10:80, the system responds that the website is unreachable. I'm using IP Masquerade to mask all traffic on the internal network out through 192.168.1.10 and the router. Can anyone offer me any advice on how to make my internal webserver available to the external world?

Pinholes, Port 80 and other nonsense
The basic problem is that when I try to access my http server, I receive the following message: Network error Unable to request URL from host 63.101.116.77:80: Connection refused The background is a little convoluted, so if I leave anything out, just let me know and I'll be glad to supplement. 192.168.2.1 is my Linux box. It's running httpd on port 80. A netstat -an | grep LISTEN | grep 80 reveals that http is listening to port 80. This machine masquerades at 192.168.2.0, forwarding external requests to 192.168.1.10, which is a network card connected to a Cayman DSL modem/router/firewall defined as 192.168.1.254. Querying the Cayman reveals the following IP information: IP Interfaces: ENET (lan): ( up broadcast default rip-send v1 rip-receive v1 ) inet 192.168.1.254 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.1.255 physical address 00.00.89.2a.e6.8a mtu 1500 PPP (vcc1): ( up point-to-point address-mapping ) inet 63.101.116.77 netmask 0.0.0.0 peer address 207.18.66.1 physical address 00.00.00.00.00.00 mtu 1500 I'm working on the assumption that 63.101.116.77 is the dynamic IP address assigned by my ISP. On the Cayman, I've defined a "pinhole" as follows: Protocol: TCP External Port: 80 Internal Port: 80 Internal IP Address: 192.168.2.1 According to the documentation, this should pass TCP requests for port 80 to the internal IP address of 192.168.2.1. Judging from the error message, it appears to be working. Internally, if I access http://192.168.2.1, everything works properly. Apache serves up the webpages. However, when I access http://63.101.116.77, I get the error message given above. Does anyone have any idea as to why this connection is being refused? Do I need to give some sort of ipchains command that will allow the request to pass through to 192.168.2.1? If so, what would that be? Again, if I need to provide more information, just say the word.

DSL (SOL/DOA)
Okay, I've taken everyone's recommendations to heart concerning eth0, eth1 and my private network. I can access all machines locally, but IP Masquerade isn't working (i.e., I can't ping outside of 192.168.2.0 UNLESS I'm working from 192.168.2.1, in which case I can access both the private network and the Internet). I've set up the following: eth0: 192.168.2.1 eth1: 192.168.1.10 192.168.2.x is now my private network. 192.168.1.x relates to the outside world. eth1 is set to 192.168.1.10 because it connects to my DSL modem/router which is set to 192.168.1.254. Following is my netstat -rn: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 192.168.2.1 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth0 192.168.1.100.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth1 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth1 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1 I execute the following in my rc.local during boot-up (this is necessary because the tulip driver conflicts with the eth0 driver if they're both activated during boot-up): insmod /lib/modules/2.2.12-20/net/tulip.o /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup eth1 route add default gw 192.168.1.254 eth1 /etc/rc.d/rc.dsl /etc/rc.d/rc.dsl contains my ipchains commands for setting up IP Masquerade.

For example, here's the netstat on one of the machines: Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface 192.168.2.6 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth0 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U0 0 0 eth0 192.168.2.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U0 0 0 eth0 127.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 U0 0 0 lo 0.0.0.0192.168.2.10.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 All Win9x machines point to 192.168.2.1 as well.

DSL & Dual NICs
My server has two NICs, eth0 (192.168.1.1) and eth1 (192.168.1.10). eth0 connects to my private network and eth1 connects to the external DSL modem (Cayman 3220 DSL router). The router acts as a firewall (which I hate but really can't do anything about). The router is defined as 192.168.1.254, and has 4 ethernet connections on the front. If I plug directly into the router, I can access http://192.168.1.254 from my browser and configure it. However, I can't access it from any station on my network (i.e., from 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.6, etc.). When I attempt, it responds with the following error: A network error occurred: unable to connect to server (TCP Error: No route to host) The server may be down or unreachable I can't ping it or telnet to it, either. So, I must have something wrong in my routing tables, right?

Here's the ls -al: crw-rw 1 root disk 9, 0 May 5 1998 /dev/st0 -- steve -- To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.

But I think you must still be root to run it. i'm running it as root. i've tried various ports (e.g., 1000, 1050, 3000, 1024, etc.) all with the same results: Network error Unable to read URL from host 192.168.1.1: no response from server -- steve -- To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.

At 2mb, and given that everything else looks correct, it's the only explanation. Since there's no other place around the place, this must be the place. Thanks, guys.

NeoMagic Chip
I'm running Linux on a Gateway Solo 2500, and I've installed the patch at ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/XFCom/XFCom-neomagic-libc5-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm, but I cannot seem to get startx -- -bpp 24 working at 1024x768. Is this possible. Attached is my XF86Config file.
