Re: Grub Problem,

2003-09-03 Thread Vincent E Parsons
Ron, it sounds like the problem is with Partition Magic and Windows.
You may have to reinstall windows. This is not a grub or linux problem.
Some useful information to include in your post would be the contents of
your grub.conf and fstab/or the output of df.

Make sure you have a linux bootdisk before you re-install windows as
windows will overwrite the MBR and you will lose grub. After windows is
up, boot to linux with your boot disk and run grub from the command
line. You'll have to do this as root.

 Hi All,
 
 I have installed Redhat 8 on a PC with windowsXP running on already and used GRUB as 
 a boot loader, till I tried to convert my windows partition from NTFS to FAT32 using 
 Partition magic.
 Now the windows doesnt boot it just goes back to the GRUB menu, the linux is up 
 and running no problem with it.
 The XP is installed on disk C and the RedHat is installed on D. the GRUB uses the 
 MBR.
 I tried to fdisk /mbr and nothing changes,I have installed the RedHat Again but 
 still no windows.
 
 Please help ;-(
 Ron

Re: How do I add a user to samba?

2003-09-03 Thread Vincent E Parsons
B McAndrews,
It's a good idea to make sure your samba users match your linux users on
the system. I would add the user to linux first then to samba. You
shouldn't have to run smbpasswd for all users.

 Running redhat 8.0.
 
 I have already gone through the method that the docs have shown 
 converting user passwords to samba passwords and it works fine.
 
 Now I have a new user. How can I add a new user so that samba recognizes 
 him without going through the procedures set in the docs?  I don't want 
 to have
 to run: smbpasswd user , for all users again.
 
 Thanks.

Re: kernel version from command line?

2003-08-20 Thread Vincent E Parsons
Type   uname -r  at the terminal.
That will give you the kernel version.

redhat-config-packages local filesystem source

2003-08-20 Thread Vincent E Parsons
This is a two part question...
1. Does anyone know how to make redhat-config-packages look to the local
filesystem for packages instead of the CD's? I tried to invoke the
following command;  redhat-config-packages --tree=/var/rh9   which
fails. Not a valid source...

2. The answer to this question may also solve my first question;
I copied all three CD's to /var/rh9 to be used for kickstart network
installs and such.When copying files from the CD's to the local
filesystem, is there anything one needs to be aware of, such as the
TRANS.TBL entries?
