ip alias +routing
Hello, I would like to route two networks using one network -card. I think i can set to diferent ip address for that card using alias. But how can i enroute the traficc from one network to another. suppose network1 is 10.0.0.0 and network2 is 192.168.0.0.Could it be like this?: route add -net 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 gw 192.168.0.x route add -net 192.168.0.0. netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 10.0.0.x but both are working over eth0 and also there is a default gateway to Internet (192.168.0.254). Please, open my eyes!!! I have a shutdown on my brain ;) Thank you all Chema -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list

I dunno. Seems like you allready have most of what you need. just
exchange the "mv -i" with "tar -zAF" ~/.Trash.tgz" $asolutename
(appending/prepending the timestamp to the file name is left as an
exercise to the reader :-) )

I take it you mean

This still has one problem: we have to treat deletions with absolute
pathnames.. there should be a command or something: `fullname`.. :)

Yeah.. it would be kind of boring to treat that. At least you'll know
with -i.

That sounds pretty good..
I wonder if it would be easy to pull this functionality out of
nautilus to the command line, since it implements it reasonably well.
Should be for anyone involved with it.

Quick solution:
here=`pwd`
for i in $*; do
absolutename="/${i}"
dn=`dirname $i`
bn=`basename $i`
name=$dn/$bn
echo $absolutename >> ~/.trashdb;
done
mv -i $* ~/.Trash;
You still have the massive probleme of files that all posses the same
basename even though they came from different directories.
Best bet - append the file being "trashed" to an existing gzipped tar
archive. This way the full pathname can be saved with each file nad each
file can besaved mutiple times in the archive. To save pain at a later
date you can prepend each pathname with a "date_and_timestamp" making
it easier to name each version of the same file uniquely and allow
each one to be manipulated individually.

I'm not sure this is what you want, but you could use:
del() { mv -i $* ~/.Trash; }
You can put it in ~/.bashrc
You should find a lot about this searching around.. you shouldn't use
rm as the new command's name, to keep the respect for it.

I'm using Apache as web server, and i don't know how to implement a directory alias in the Apache (like a virtual directory in the Win IIS). Suppose my web server has the following base name: "/www.my_server.com/" and it is associated with the directory "/my_dir/www_dir". My problem is that i need to associate the following directory "/misc_dir/food_dir" with the link "/www.myserver.com/food". I'm using the Apache GUI provided with Linux RedHat 9.

I'm runnning Perl 5.6 and I didn't have the time to dig through it to find out why the regex didn't work and found my workaround using the ldif exchange.

Yes, I did spend about a half hour with Google looking for tools and came up empty. I spent an hour or so working with abook to see if it was supported there (it isn't) and starting thinking about writing code to see if I could get abook to produce an intermediate format that would be easier to get into SquirrelMail (elm format is close). I also contacted the abook author to see about getting SquirrelMail added. Red Hat Linux includes both mutt and Squirrelmail, so this posting was definitely not off-topic.

Is it possible to construct the alias in such a way that I make this happen? $ ls -la /var/log|egrep ^d The alias would look something like this (as I imagine it in my head): $ alias ald='ls -la $1|egrep ^d' Hopefully I've made some sense and someone can give me a yes or no.

Multiple Network Alias
Hi all, I want to configure mutiple network aliases. With Redhat < 8.0 the next config works fine: [triton]:/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts# cat ifcfg-eth0:1 IPADDR="132.210.158.203-235" NETMASK="255.255.255.0" [triton]:/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts# cat ifcfg-eth0:0 IPADDR="132.210.158.200-201" NETMASK="255.255.255.0" But with RH 8.0 it doesn't work anymore.

I was making the problem much worse that it needed to be. My interpretation of the IP stack and routing was that the souce ip/subnet and the destination ip/subnet were compared and the routing tables only used if they didn't match - hence my attempts to alias and then forward. However, as both Linux and Win9x boxes still use the route tables if the subnets match, a simple route rule did the trick.

Go the easy route.
Just create a second user with the same UID & GID as Fred, and using
Freds home directory.
The /etc/passwd would look something like:
foo:x:500:500:Foo User:/home/foo:/bin/bash
bar:x:500:500:Fred User:/home/foo:/bin/bash
Then set the password to be the same as foo
Then when bar logs in, he is "really" foo, and uses foo's environment,
and home dirs.
NOTE: useradd will probably complain about doing this, as will nearly
all user creation tools. You'll need to add the password entries by
hand, then run the passwd command to sync the shadow passwords.
AND: YES, this can be done for a root account. We used to use what we
called a "root2" account for customers that needed root. We'd create a
shadow account like the one above. Then the passwords can be different,
and we could pull access if they acted up.
A Caviat:
If user "bar", decides to change his password, he MUST type it as:
#> passwd bar
If he just enters
#> passwd
He'll change the password for foo. Since they have the same UID, passwd
will change the first one it comes accross in /etc/passwd, so he needs
to be specific.
Easy.

RE: alias
Ahhh.. Always important to include details. Many ways to handle this, first of all, you can override unix permissions with a samba share, and only set the valid users list to any arbitrary samba user. You can also use the username map. You can also add another user with a UID and GID of '0', and that will work as well. samba example: [etc] browseable = no writeable = yes delete readonly = yes path = /etc only user = yes force group = root force user = root create mode = 644 user = jms note: this will force user & group permission on changed files to be root. That is not necessarily desirable. However, for simple cases, this would be fine and more detailed administration should happen via Putty, or SSH or whatever. js On Mon, 2003-02-03 at 20:11, Larry Brown wrote: > What prompted this line of questioning was the idea that in a closed and > safe environment one could use this method to set up an alias for root as > say...administrator.

I am working on a project where we are integrating the first samba server into a small NT network. As it is my first experience with a windows NT domain environment and the sysadmin (my brother) is not very linux savvy yet we were discussing today the best way for him to view the logs from windows, as he can for the three NT servers without having to log onto the box and going to the other tool. One of the things we discussed but have not tested is sharing /var/log and only granting access to the admin group. At least he can explore the dir and click on the logs to read them.

RH 8.0 color ls alias problems
I did a quick search of the list archives, but I couldn't find anything about this, which is a little surprising, making me suspect my search, not the obscurity of the problem. The problem I am having has to do with the file /etc/profile.d/colorls.sh, and its import by and but a regular user. By that I mean, when I log is as my normal user, color ls is enabled, and I have all the regular aliases, such as "ll" and "l.". When I perform a "su" to root, however, the aliases go away, as does the color ls. Running "bash -x /etc/profile.d/colorls.sh" as root produces the following: + alias 'rm=rm -i' + alias 'cp=cp -i' + alias 'mv=mv -i' + '[' -f /etc/bashrc ']' + . /etc/bashrc +++ id -gn +++ id -un +++ id -u ++ '[' root = root -a 0 -gt 99 ']' ++ umask 022 ++ '[' '' ']' + COLORS=/etc/DIR_COLORS + '[' -e /etc/DIR_COLORS.ansi ']' + '[' -e /root/.dircolors ']' + '[' -e /root/.dircolors.ansi ']' + '[' -e /root/.dir_colors ']' + '[' -e /root/.dir_colors.ansi ']' + '[' -e /etc/DIR_COLORS ']' ++ dircolors --sh /etc/DIR_COLORS + eval 'LS_COLORS='\'''\'';' export LS_COLORS ++ LS_COLORS= ++ export LS_COLORS + '[' -z '' ']' + return /etc/profile.d/colorls.sh: line 12: return: can only `return' from a function or sourced script + egrep -qi '^COLOR.*none' /etc/DIR_COLORS + alias 'll=ls -l --color=tty' + alias 'l.=ls -d .* --color=tty' + alias 'ls=ls --color=tty' This is all well and good except that none of the aliases at the bottom are actually created.

I've just installed Redhat 7.3 and IP alias dont work In the web I've noticed that the IP Alias is depricated with 2.4.x and is being replaced by a firewall mechanism (source: IP Alias Mini Howto), no other information given. However, when I tried a manual network configuration i.e. /sbin/ifconfig eth1:0 192.168.0.2 /sbin/route add -host 192.168.0.2 dev eth1:0 it still works, so at least its still being compiled into the kernel by redhat. However, the redhat scripts in init.d are no longer supporting the use additional interface configuration files for aliasing like ifcfg-eth1:0 ?? Can someone cast some light onto this please.

How to set up DHCP client (static vs. dynamic address, localhost alias etc.)?
Attached to this message is an entry from our internal issue tracking system which discusses (well, as you can see, it's mostly me discussing with myself ;-)) what the best way of configuring a DHCP client under Red Hat Linux is. I'm submitting it here to ask for other people's opinions on this issue. Does anyone with a similar setup, i.e. network with multiple hosts configured via DHCP, some of which may be disconnected and run stand-alone, or even connected to a different net, possibly without even rebooting, have anything to say? -- Toralf Lund <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> +47 66 85 51 22 Kongsberg Scanners AS +47 66 85 51 00 (switchboard) http://www.kscanners.no/~toralf +47 66 85 51 01 (fax) Title: Full Text Bug Listing Bugzilla version 2.14 Full Text Bug Listing DHCP client issues Bug#: 47 Product: system Version: unspecified Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: REOPENED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Resolution: Assigned To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Component: Laptop URL: Summary: DHCP client issues Keywords: Description: Need to decide how to configure DHCP client on hosts booting via DHCP, in particluar the ones that are often disconnected from our LAN, and possibly connected to alternative networks, notably laptops. In particular, we need to decide whether to use dynamic or static host names. Disadvantages of dynamic names: * Name may change in the middle of a session, which could be *really* bad. Disadvantages of static names: * IP address lookup will fail when network is not connected. A workaround is to list as alias for "localhost". IP address lookup will then return "loopback" address, and official hostname will be "localhost", which may or may not have side effects. * Host name is not fully qualified. --- Additional Comments From Toralf Lund 2001-09-19 11:36 --- Another drawback of having static names is of course that it may easlily lead to inconstencies between the (local) hostname and the official name from the host database's point of view; if the network card is changed, the DHCP server will assign a different IP address, and host name lookup thus returns a different name. Conversely, IP address lookup using the local name will _not_ return the hosts own address, which is when the fun really starts... --- Additional Comments From Toralf Lund 2001-09-19 11:48 --- Of course, dynamic naming leads to problems only when you want to start/stop/restart the network while the machine is up-and-running. This something we do a lot on laptops. That's also where a change of (PCMCIA) network cards is likely to occur. --- Additional Comments From Toralf Lund 2001-10-02 09:59 --- Moving bug to "Laptop". This is mainly a laptop issue as dynamic names or even static ones with no default address will work just fine on stationary hosts. --- Additional Comments From Toralf Lund 2001-10-02 13:16 --- Note that name as returned by 'hostname' command or 'gethostname()' call isn't qualified in the dynamic case either, at least not when using dhcpcd with our current setup (it may be possible to configure the server and/or client to qualify the name.) As for the static case, we should test what happens if we use a fully private name, i.e. one that isn't known by external hosts. --- Additional Comments From Toralf Lund 2001-12-18 21:40 --- A better solution than the one we've tried so far may be to use a static hostname, and create an entry with /etc/hosts for the name and the current address every time an IP address is received from a DHCP server. This entry should be replaced with a new one when a new address is set, but NOT removed when the network is disconnected. --- Additional Comments From Toralf Lund 2001-12-18 22:46 --- Our dhcpcd change script has now been updated as suggested in the note prior to this. --- Additional Comments From Toralf Lund 2002-06-11 20:44 --- Reopening but as /etc/hosts update doesn't help a lot. It is still not possible for the host to contact itself via its hostname when the network isn't running. Aliasing to localhost may be the only way if we want static name (but it doesn't feel right.)

RE: some detail on: Sendmail and a BIG alias file
Hello Cameron, Thanks for all of that info ! It sounds like you guys are doing what my company wants to do. Here is our problem : We have two internet links (woohoo) connecting the company to the internet. Now they want mail that is meant for office A to come to that link and mail that is meant for office B to come via that link. They don't want to use MX balance as this means internal traffic (mail for office B lands in office A and has to be send internally).Office C,D,E,F hangs off office A and Office G,H,I,J hang off office B Now my suggestion is as follow : Put a Linux box on the outside at the SP. This box will get an exported users list (from Exchange). Using the "home server" (Office A,B or D) it will build the following aliases (We are domain.com - My e-mail address, in Office D, is [EMAIL PROTECTED] A friend in Office I is [EMAIL PROTECTED]) officea.domain.com or officeb.domain.com based on your home server (office E -> Office A etc.) So : [EMAIL PROTECTED] -> [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -> [EMAIL PROTECTED] This mail server would then forward the message to the reletive office. If the internet link at office A goes down, mail can still be send via office B and it will get there (Exchange and internal routing) Any suggestion/comments ?

Nothing very powerful. The NIS servers are Sun Ultrasparcs. They aren't
very stressed; usually nearly idle. Our mail hub (which has the identical
mail file locally as a plain dbm file to make it not dependent on the
NIS servers) is a moderately specced Intel BSD box.
The alias file is actually computed from a set of MySQL tables (and
some historical flat text files) at update time. We keep out core user
records and group records (as hierachical, date-ranged structures)
in these tables and unpack them for the aliases table, and the UNIX
group table, in this way having a UNIX group to hand for every need,
with names exactly matching the mail aliases (to reduce confusion).
Example:
There's a group called "technic" for the sysadmins (of which I am one)
looking like this (some stuff elided because our management have been
getting more ana^H^H^Hcareful recently):
[~]zapff*> dbgroup technic
Group names: technic sysadmin
Account code:
Title (Long Name): IT Services
Flags: GROUPUSED
Internal PROJ_ID: 84
Membership:
{leader => [***],
manager => [*],
pc => [/technic-staff-pc],
staff => {misc => [oliverw],
pc => [robs,
desmolej,
clg,
jerome],
unix => [cameron,
raphael,
kirsty]}}
>From this come the following mail aliases and UNIX groups:
technic
technic-leader
technic-manager
technic-pc
technic-staff
technic-staff-misc
technic-staff-pc
technic-staff-unix
with the obvious memberships. (For historical reasons this group is
also known as "sysadmin" as shown in the top line of the dbgroup output,
and there are matching aliases "sysadmin-pc" etc in consequence.)
Now, we also support delivery of mail to personal workstations for the
UNIX users because many UNIX mail readers make use of local files and
don't speak pop or imap, and for convenience if the central mail host
goes down. The Windows and Mac users use the central pop/imap server.
So each user has a delivery location too.
My own user data look like this:
[~]zapff*> dbuser cameron
Internal id #56
Login cameron
Emp_Status TEMPORARY
Ilk SUPPORT SW
{ALTNAMES => [],
DATES => [{EMP_STATUS => TEMPORARY,
END_DATE => 2000-05-26,
START_DATE => 1997-01-01},
{EMP_STATUS => TEMPORARY,
END_DATE => "",
START_DATE => 2000-05-27}],
DESK => L6-019,
DIALBACKS => [],
DIVCODE => 13,
EMAIL_HOW => HOST,
EMAIL_PGPKEY => "",
EMAIL_PUBLISHED => "",
EMAIL_WHAT => zapff,

LOGIN => cameron,
MANAGER => ***,
MOBILE => [],
OTHER_EMAIL => "",
PREFGROUPS => [geeks,
web-int,
technic,
maillist],
TITLE => "UNIX Systems Admin, Standard"}
For example:
[~]zapff*> expalias technic-staff-unix
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
For purposes of this discussion, the EMAIL_HOW and EMAIL_WHAT fields
say that my email is delivered to a host (as opposed to, say, being
forwarded to an external address or suchlike) and that the host is
"zapff", my workstation.
You can see we keep desks and phone numbers. We track a bunch of info
from that. For example we keep our wiring database's per-host records USER
fields computed by backtracking user desks to host locations. Conversely,
user phone extensions are computed by tracking from the phone wiring
(to a desk) and correlating with the user's desk.
So, if we make a change to these tables which affects the alias table we
recompute the mail alias table with a perl script. The _entire_ alias
table is computed from

Sendmail and a BIG alias file
Hello Everyone, I know this might be kinda off topic, but since everyone here is in the field, I thought I would pop the question here. How well does sendmail handle a *big* alias file (around 2 entries) ? Is there another way to handle such big alias requirements ?

Network Administration Tool - alias interface eth0:0
RedHat 7.2 replaced netcfg with neat. Netcfg allowed for the easy creation of alias network interfaces. Despite numerous attempts to create an eth0:0, similar to what was created in netcfg, I have yet to manipulate the neat interface to do the same. I cannot find any documentation for this tool/feature except section 6.2.1 of the rhl-cg-72.pdf which says you can do it, but no explanation. Can someone point to a simple explanation, or more extensive documenation for this tool? ___ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
bash alias problem
Greetings. I am running RH 7.0. In my /etc/bashrc file I have alias ls='ls -Al --color' This gives me a long directory listing in color. It works as long as I am not in Gnome. If I start Gnome and open a terminal, an ls gives me the usual short directory listing. I have tried adding the alias to the user profile as well but this has no effect. Thanks for your help.

Re: Alias Substitution
This question has already been properly answered by explaining the use of
functions in bash which are used to replace csh style parameterized
aliases. But the particular question begs for one more comment:
You can say
CDPATH='.:~'
in your .bashrc, or you can just say
export CDPATH='.:~'
in your .bash_profile

A script is no more than a bunch of command line "commands" put
together. Stick the above in your ~/.bashrc and it will work.
I have tried it already. Alternatively, you can type it on the
"command line" everytime you login, but that would be tedious, so
stick it in your startup "script," ~/.bashrc.
Hope that clarifies things.
