With anything modern you want RAM+swap == the maximum you're ever likely to run at once (including this that are "up" but idle). The "twice RAM" is simply a rule of thumb. In an ideal world you would have more RAM than you need and never swap (well, "never page", but let's not be picky). In practice you'll generally have more process memory in use than RAM available and so the overflow is stored in swap until needed. You want enough swap to never run out of overflow area, that's all. At any one time you have a "working set" - the pages of programs that are in regular use. If that's bigger than RAM your machine will spend some time paging (exchanging the less wanted data in memory for immediately wanted data in swap or from disc files not currently cached) instead of actually running your programs (because the program will be stalled waiting for its data to come back from the swap area). If your working set needs a lot of swap that "some time" will become "a lot of time" or even "almost all the time", which is called "thrashing". You can always add more swap later as a "swap file" - see "man swapon". More swap will not affect your performance at all, neither faster nor slower. It's simply room to have more programs "up" at a time.

I may be way off base, but in case it helps, here is what pops into my head upon reading this thread: How did you generate that list of open ports? It occurs to me that you might actually have iptables working just fine... A service or program can be listening on a port, even while a firewall is blocking access to that port. It is like having an earplug in your ear... The ear is still listening, but the sounds are prevented from reaching it. There may be a default firewall rule that will allow all loopback traffic through, while blocking remote hosts. So unless you are generating the list of open ports using a remote scan, you might not know what's really open or closed to the outside world. A complementary approach to using a firewall is to disable unneeded services. So for instance, you could do something like "service sendmail stop" and "chkconfig --level 2345 sendmail off" to close the smtp port. "lsof -i" and "netstat -lp" (and others) might help determine what service daemon or application is using each port; with that you can usually disable or reconfigure them to be less open. As someone else said, setting an interface as "trusted" effectively turns off the firewall for that interface, not usually the desired result unless you have a multi-homed system where one interface is on a local trusted network and the other is to the big bad world. You probably want eth0 to be untrusted, else you wouldn't bother creating firewall rules for it... Or maybe I missed some piece(s) of the puzzle... :-) Hope that helps. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

If you've got ipchains enabled and if it started first it's possible that ipchains is trying to be the firewall, not iptables.

Things you can do: 1. Check if your system is properly configured, despite instalation without a hitch it could have misconfigured something. Check if your disk drives are running in DMA mode (man hdparm). Uncomment these lines in /etc/sysconfig/harddisks file: USE_DMA=1 LOOKAHEAD=1 EIDE_32BIT=3 This should speed your disks a little. 2. Disable unwanted system services - if your system is plain desktop/workstation/network client you should not need most of them. 3. Have you installed accelerated drivers for your graphics card? 4. Try running one of light-weight window managers f.e. FluxBox, FVWM, IceWM, WindowMaker (my favourite), AfterStep or whatever (there are plenty of them) - simply KDE or GNOME *are* heavy, a bit bloated (concerning my own neds) and sluggish. 5. Instead of Mozilla (which is also sluggish) try running MozillaFirebird (which is slightly faster) or Opera (which is a speed deamon). 6. You also can just load Mozilla on startup of yours X session and keep it open in memory to prevent long load times. :-) 7. Get more RAM. But I think the issue is something wrong with your configuration, Currently I am typing from Pentium2 266Mhz box with 96 megs RAM, slow notebook harddisk and it is just fine for me. -- ,, |`..'| Konrad Kosmowski |.'`--'`.| [EMAIL PROTECTED] '' -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

RE: RedHat 9.0 and Xwindows issue.
Also, one of the times you get the computer to start up. You can go to /etc/inittab and edit this file. Change this line id:5:initdefault: to id:3:initdefault: This will make your system boot to run level 3 (5 is Xwindows). Then you will have to type startx to launch X. Now when you have the problem you won't have to reboot, and you'll be able to see what error message the machine is getting. You may not be able to ALT-CTRL-BACKSPACE, but if you let the Xserver die, you'll have output on your terminal and you'll be able to track down your issue. This is what I ended up having to do. Mine was so bad I had to use my rescue disk to get in and change my files. Hope that helps.

Muy buenas, mi consulta es la siguiente: Quiero instalar un servidor RED HAT 9.0 con un sistema mirror hardware, el problema es que no hay manera de que funcione me sale un mensaje que pone “GURB ERROR HARD DISK”. El escenario es el siguiente: Placa base intel con bios actualizada Promise fastrak 100 tx2 con bios actualizada. Red hat 9.0 i drivers de promise ultima version. Lo primero que he hecho es montar el mirror con la controladora promise en principio yo creo que esta correcto me los detecta bien y la placa base ve los discos que estan pinchados en la controladora raid lo cual supongo que es correcto. La instalación del red hat tambien la hace correctamente solo hay una pequeña duda, cuando entro en el discdruid veo 3 discos los dos que he pinchado en la contoladora raid y otro que me sale con el comentario promis raid que es de la misma capacidad que los otros, supongo que sera el mirror pero mi pregunta es, ¿no tendría que ver uno solo?. Bueno si alguien sabe algo y me quiere echar un cable estare agradecido, gracias Un saludo, Carlos Roca Inducontrol.
Re: URGENT! My RedHat 9.0 server will not boot anymore!
make your PC reboot (do it with Ctrl-Alt-Del) when grub's menu displays, move the hilighted line on your current config (this is necessary only if you have more then one bootable kernel) press e (for edit) move the hilighted line on the kernel parameters (usually containing things like root=LABEL=/) press e again then add the number 1 at the end of the line (leave a blank before) to tell the system to boot in single mode press enter to end editing press b to boot the system will start with only a very few services activated : your wrapper script should not start and the boot will end with a root shell modify your script so that it starts in the background type exit (to continue booting) or reboot (to start a new boot sequence) if this doesn't work, you might try to connect from another computer with telnet or ssh, even if the keyboard/mouse/display of your computer remain locked due to the boot sequence not complete, it's likely that network services have already been started and let you login from a remote system hth A 11:14 21/08/2003 +0100, vous avez écrit : >Hi, > >I tried to install a service using a wrapper script to run a java >application in the background.

I am curious to how well the programs work. I have a few friends that are still on windows. They use JAWS or programs of that nature. It might be better to put in a feature request for xmms to be screen reader compatible. You might put the request into Red Hat's feature request for program improvements. The xmms developers might aid in getting it to work also. There is a limitation with the default installation of xmms. It does not include an mp3 decoder. You might have to get the plugin, when you file a feature request for xmms. They have the needed mp3 plugin.

I tried it with pt_BR (portuguese_Brazil) and it gave me no error messages,
just didn't help me at all.. Anyway it seems like this is an actual mozilla bug
related to gtk2; I checked again and found this:
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=203347
and it looks like the problem should be solved, right? But I still get it with
mozilla 1.4.. so in bugzilla when a bug is marked fixed, do I have to install
a patch? The site is not very clear about that.. there are some patch code files
but I don't have a clear idea what they are there for.
Thanks for the help;

special accents on mozilla 1.2.1 or 1.4 under redhat 9.0 - won'twork
I just upgraded to RedHat 9.0 and now I can't get special characters like ã, á, à, ê on Mozilla input.. which are important to me and work just fine on all other programs, like they used to on RedHat 8.0 (Mozilla 1.0.1, which I used to have on RH 8.0, didn't have this problem).

I thought maybe I should set the locale to pt_BR (brazilian), but then again, why would that only matter to mozilla? Anyway whenever I run ]$ export LANG=pt_BR , when I enter mozilla it sets back to LANG=en_US.UTF-8 .. I don't think that's the problem since accents work fine with en_US, for example, on gedit.

Redhat 9.0 and KDE
Hi, I've recently installed Redhat 9.0 on my PC. On trying to use KDE I find that if I dial up with KPPP half of my desktop icons disappear and I lose the menu brought up by right clicking on the desktop is disabled. If I don't use KPPP it works fine, with no problems, soon as I dial the icons disappear and the right mouse key ceases to function. Although it works fine under Gnome, I would prefer KDE. I've tried upgrading KDE with 3.1.2 RPM's off the KDE website, this worked once until I rebooted, then the same fault reoccurred and has remained. Can someone give me some pointers as to what might be wrong, as I am not sure where to start.

Freefonts have disappeared after reboot (RedHat 9.0)
Hi, I just installed freefont and I can use them until my next reboot. Then, I can't see them and have to reinstall again. Any ideas? I believe I am not installing them in the correct directory. The readme file mention (bellow) /usr/X11/lib/fonts but because I don't have this directory I installed it under usr/x11R6/include/x11/fonts. So I did, xset fp+ /usr/x11R6/include/x11/fonts/freefont xset fp rehash Thank you, Ricardo Installation for X11 (readme file) ___ 1. Change to /usr/X11/lib/fonts 2. untar the archive freefont-0.10.tar.gz 3. Give the following commands to make X11 accept the new fonts xset fp+ /usr/X11/lib/fonts/freefont xset fp rehash 4. The fonts are available under X11. Check them out by running "xfontsel" for example. 5. Cleanup.

I'm not quite sure what you are trying to accomplish here. If the printer is attached to a Win98 machine, I would think you would just share it from there with the Win98 client. If you want the Linux machine to be a client, I think you need Samba, and it looks like redhat-config-printer should just do the right thing. > > I also tried to install the printer on the server via KDE, but when I > install the printer on the win98 client it crashes. > > I have tried to restart lpd.

If you are using CUPS, you are not using lpd. Did you upgrade this machine from an earlier Red Hat release? In 9.0, CUPS is the default and LPRng is not even installed on a fresh install.

RedHat 9.0 and CUPS
Hi! I am new to the list and I hope this question is on topic. If it is not please recommend another list. I have recently upgraded my system from RedHat 7.3 to 9.0. Now I have some problems when trying to print from a win98 client via CUPS to a printer which is connected to another win98 client. When i install the printer in CUPS and print a test page, everything works well. However, when I try to print from win98, my printing jobs seem to vanish into thin air. Nothing happens. I do not get an error messages from either the computer I am printing form, from CUPS or from the win98 computer where the printer is attatched. The job is not registered anywhere in CUPS either. I also tried to install the printer on the server via KDE, but when I install the printer on the win98 client it crashes. I have tried to restart lpd. When I do this I get the following warning (HP_940c is the name of my printer): Starting lpd: Warning - HP_940c: 'no :rm, :lp, or :sv entry' Warning - HP_940c: Bad printcap entry - missing 'sd' or 'client' entry? I have also tried to do this on a server which is originally set up with 9.0, and with this there are no problems. Can anyone give me a hint on what is Wrong??

Savage/IX + redhat 9.0
Just upgraded my laptop from redhat 8 to redhat 9, now I can't get better than 800x600 resolution on my laptop whats the problem? Is this a known issue? Any known workaround? it is a savage/IX chipset and both 8 and 9 recognize it fine in the install, but 9 will only let me select 800x600 and if I edit the XF86config file by hand and only give it the option of 1024x768, then X will not start. thanks for any help offered Tom _ Tired of spam?

Of course, "official" support of RH 8 supposedly will stop after 12/31/03. I think you are correct, however. I am really tired of upgrading. I was looking forward to seeing 8.1 with the hopes it might clean up some stability issues. I think I will hang for several months and then decide what I need to do. Rebuilding systems is starting to be less and less fun. I still run a RH 5.2 system and a RH 7.1 system. However, the RH 5.2 is basically dead since it will not run some newer things. The RH 7.1 will no longer have "official" support after 12/31/03 also. Maybe one of the more advanced releases might make more sense. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

(I dont have a burner.) It mostly means that rpms build on a RH9 system will not likely run on RH8 or RH7, etc. That's all. RPMs built on older systems should probably still install on RH9 (due to backward compatibility of libs). It's not a big deal. When you went from RH7.x to RH8.0 you hit the same hurdle.

Re: RedHat 9.0 - The Practical Side
The biggest problem you might run into is some config files in your home directory that have changed spec, but that has only happened to me once - I think when going from a pre 1 version of gnome to a much newer one. If that happens - just delete the config file. What you want to do - copy these files to a floppy: /etc/shadow /etc/group /etc/passwd Any data not in your home directory that you want to save, back them up too. Such as /etc/httpd/httpd.conf if you use Apache and have customized it. You might want to save your ssl key too, but I never bother to on a home machine. When you install the new distro, choose your current /home partition with a mount point of /home but DO NOT choose to format it. Let the install go, don't create a new user - just the root user is enough. Boot into single the root account, mount the floppy, and run: cat /mnt/floppy/shadow > /etc/shadow cat /mnt/floppy/group > /etc/group cat /mnt/floppy/passwd > /etc/passwd reboot - and you should be able to log into any of your user accounts just fine. If you don't have a burner - I *really* recommend you have a friend burn the iso's. Really. I don't know where you live, but in California (most of the US I suspect) you can get an IDE cdrw drive for about $50.00 now new. They really have dropped in price. But if you can't afford it, really - get a friend to burn it. You probably want to burn backups of your home directory anyway just in case something goes wrong. If I were you, though - I'd wait to install RH9 until about a month after it has been released. That way you can see pitfalls to avoid - and show stopper bugs have a better chance of having patches easily available. On Tue, 2003-03-25 at 00:36, Jim Wilferling wrote: >Alright, so I'm annoyed.
