Hi Russ,

To the owlriver address?  I got a bounce (and it looks like my roadrunner
server will only try for a day before it calls it permanent.)  I've just
resent it -- If you don't see it, let me know.

Couldn't  find it in the errata section, but a seach of the site yielded

http://rpm.redhat.com/hintskinks/rpmv3tv4/

which gives explicit instructions about upgrading to version 4.  However,
following these instructions I still get dependency errors (but different
ones... for rpmlib this time)

Circular dependencies for RPM on RH 6.2

2002-11-12 Thread sgarcia
I'm trying to upgrade my 6.2 server.  What I really want is a current
kernel (I'm running 2.2.14.)

Right now I'm in the Linux (or at least Red Hat) version of 'DLL-Hell'.  I
gues we'd call it 'RPM-Hell'.

The server currently has rpm 3.0.4.  Most of the RPMs on the updates site
require RPM 4 or above.  

I try to install rpm-4.0.2-6x.i386.rpm and I get a failed dependency. 
Need libdb-3.1 or higher.  That's in glibc.  

Try to install glibc-2.1.3-28.i386.rpm.  Failed dependency.  Need rpm
4.0.1 or higher.

I think you can see where this is going.

Try to install glibc and rpm in the same command line:

rpm -Uvh glibc*.rpm rpm*.rpm

Server goes away.  No response to ssh from any other machine.  No response
to anything.  Power cycle.

I can download a vanilla kernel from kernel.org and build it by hand.  But
it's still not going to solve the rpm version problem. 

Does anyone have an idea how to bring the RPM version on this machine up
to a point where I can use rpms from update.redhat.com?

Or even better, fix the PHP code to work with "register globals" turned
off.  There are some significant security implications for it turned on.

You're far safer to validate specific variables for each page before you
allow them to be used.

Another legal aspect of this sort of monitoring:

Your liability may increase simply because you can't *ever* claim you
didn't know something was happening.  And if something ever slipped past
the admin (and some things with big footprints might not necessarily jump
out at you on first reading) you could be in trouble.

I'd hate to be the admin that had to read all that.  Hope your staff is
small.

Use spadmin.  Create a new "printer".  One of the printer type options is
Convert to PDF.

Then, when you want to create a PDF file, choose that printer.

You sound like you're trying very hard to avoid setting up a virtual host. 
Why?  It's the obvious answer to your problem.  And it's not hard.

You need to include the following:

# The asterisk means match all interfaces.  If you have a fixed IP #
you'll probably want to specify it
NameVirtualHost *

# You may have as many virtual hosts as you like.  The 
# first one is the one that matches a 'bare' IP

There are many programs where ./configure is all you need.

Apache's not one of 'em.  :)  The defaults probably won't match what you
want.

Here's my setup:

./configure \
 --with-layout=Apache \
 --prefix=/var/httpd \
 --enable-module=most \
 --enable-shared=max \
 --with-perl=/usr/bin/perl

There are two basic layouts, "Apache" and "GNU".  To see which one you
like best, type:

./configure --with-layout=Apache --show-layout

and

./configure --with-layout=GNU --show-layout

I like my webserver directory structure to live in /var/httpd.  That's a
personal preference thing.

If you want to be using PHP, you need to enable module support.  The next
two directives set that up.  You probably don't need the perl directive.

If you want to keep the RPM database up to date, look for checkinstall. 
Checkinstall is a "wrapper" around `make install`.  It will watch what
files make install creates and create an RPM package for you.  Once you
have checkinstall installed, you `checkinstall make install`.

Now, I don't know from `service httpd start`.  Presumably it uses the
startup scripts in /etc/init.d?  Anyway, the httpd script already in
init.d probably has paths to the Apache binaries hard coded in it.  Best
thing to do is use Apache's startup script.  To do this, cd to /etc/init.d
and:
 mv httpd httpd.1
 ln -s /var/httpd/bin/apachectl httpd

Change the symlink to point to where YOU put Apache instead of where I put
it.  You may also need to edit apachectl to reflect where you want the PID
file stored  -- I like /var/run myself.

Keep the source directory around.  You may need to point to it when you
build PHP.

Quite possibly.  I know the /proc trick, and I think it's probably pretty

Um.  I don't know either you or Mr. Tarkington, but after seeing your
screed I then looked at the message you were freaking about, thinking it
must have been really nasty.  To my surprise, it seemed kind of mild.  

You might improve your credibility by *not* sending html messages to a

It's in /proc/cpuinfo

You'd have to parse the file if all you wanted to know was the number of
cpus, since that file has a whole section for the first cpu and then
another section for the second cpu.

Look in /etc/sysconfig

The file 'network' will contain your default route (gateway). The
network-scripts directory will contain the startup scripts for each
interface, ifcfg-eth0 and ifcfg-eth1.  These contain all the pertinent
info for IP addres, subnet mask, etc for the appropriate interface.  

>DNS 1 ip address
>DNS 2 ip address.

Look at /etc/resolv.conf.  This is your DNS resolver file, and that's
where you specify your DNS servers.

You'll also need to set up IP Forwarding.  Normally this is done by

`echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ivp4/ip_forward`

But that only sticks until the next reboot, by which time you will have
completely forgotten about it.  (Might be months or years from now.)  That
means the command needs to be in a startup script somewhere.  If you don't
have ip_forward set, you won't get communication in one interface and out
the other.

It is probably possible to configure 8.9.3 to eliminate open relaying.

When I had to do it, however, I found it was a LOT easier to upgrade
sendmail.  The relay blocking portions of sendmail were a big part of the
change to 8.10.  The current version is 8.12.x.

There's no reason to upgrade the OS, or even take down the machine.  Just
rebuild sendmail with a current version and be sure you set the cf file up
to block relaying.

You want relaying from localhost.  That means that mail originating on the
local machine will go out.

Why?

Having an old (working) kernel around is a good thing, unless you are
desperately short of space.  Go into lilo.conf (or whatever you're using
as a boot loader) and set your new kernel to be the default, but leave the
old one accessible.  If something squirrely starts happening a few weeks
down the road, you have a fallback position.

Yep.  The reason tgz exists is that many achive sites were running
non-unix operating systems which had limitations on names.  DOS was
limited to 8.3 names, VMS can have only one dot in the name, and so on. 
Even if the final system that would use the file supoorted more, it was
convenient to use the lowest common denominator, which was a 3 character
extension.

>Who came out with them anyway? Neither tar nor gzip insist on naming them

Almost right.  Gzip can be quite cranky about extracting from a compressed
file that doesn't have a .gz at the end.  You can get around it with
renaming, and it may be that some versions are more forgiving.

Unix uses linefeeds at the end of each line.  Macs use a carriage return
at the end of each line.  DOS and its derivatives use a carriage
return-linefeed pair.

The ^M is the the  from the Mac.  You'll see that with DOS files too.

To switch back and forth between DOS and Unix there are a set of utilities
(dos2unix and unix2dos) that will fix these up for you.  I have around
here (somewhere) a script that I found on the net somewhere called
mac2unix that converts the s to s.  Don't know about going the
other way, should be able to rewrite the script to do that.

Someone has already told you about nohup, and that's probably the answer
you need for what you are doing.

If you need to detach a process but still be able to get back to it, look
at screen.  Screen will allow you start a process and then detach that
process, log out, etc.  Come back and reattach to the screen session, and
it's there waiting for you.

Look for a program called "checkinstall".  It's a wrapper for 'make
install' and will create an RPM as well as update the RPM database.  I now
never look for RPMs, I look for source and build it.  No more dependency
hell.
