Now I want to connect to internet and my ISP use ADSL/pppoe type of connection. I use rp-pppoe to connect to the internet when in Fedora 13. But the problem is that I have to download that package here first which I can't do without a net connection. In RHEL 6 Deployment guide I have found some work around with pppd but have not been able to figure it out. Googling about it also comes with the solution of RP-pppoe. 1) Can anybody direct me to a HOW-TO about the method ( pppd or something for which I don't have to download a package) ? 2) Why I can't use the NM applet and the DSL tab there to configure pppoe connection ? Thanks in advance. Since you could write this email I assume that you are somehow connected to the internet. If you know how to do it with rp-pppoe, I would simply Yes I am connected to internet via System Preferences Network Connections DSL tab. But connecting through this way have some problems. download the rp-pppoe rpm and put it on an USB stick. 3) I can do that. But after checking the RHEL Deployment guide - they have not mentioned this method for pppoe connection - as not being a computer student I want to know what the standard practice in this case for distribution such as RHEL. 4) Also why the Sys Pref Net Con DSL tab can not give a pppoe connection like rp-pppoe does. for 32bit: http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6.1/i386/os/Packages/rp-pppoe-3.10-8.el6.i686.rpm for 64 bit: http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6.1/x86_64/os/Packages/rp-pppoe-3.10-8.el6.x86_64.rpm Insert the USB stick into the SL61 system and install rp-pppoeas root: su - cd to_your_usb_stick yum localinstall rp-pppoe-3.10-8.el6.i686.rpm Cheers, Thanks for your reply.

I don't think there is a reason not to use NM to configure your DSL connection. It works me since Fedora 10 or so. I have tried that since I started using linux with Ubuntu 9.04 but few problems arise - check the following link and last page http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1359972 In NM configuration of pppoe I have entered the information of User id and password as in the case with rp-pppoe configuration and nothing else since I don't have other infos ( DNS, netmask etc) - with these rp-pppoe works without any problem but NM configuration face problem as in the link above. If you done things differently kindly mention those things. Thanks. Cheers, Andreas
usb 2 support
Hi has anyone managed to get usb 2 support working on sl 6. I managed to get qemu-kvm-0.15.0-3.el6.x86_64 build and libvirt-0.9.4-1.el6.x86_64 , installed and working normal. I now just need usb 2 support to work. The one vm guest runs windows 7. usb passthrough works for different linux installs I've tried as guest, but not windows 7. I've tested this on a debian system running qemu-kvm 0.14, libvirtd-0.9.4 and virt-manager 0.9.0. and it works correctly. the virt-manager in sl 6/rhel 6 is virt-manager-0.8.4-8.el6.noarch. trying to compile the latest virt-manager is near impossible now. i assuming that maybe its virt-manager not generating the correct xml tagging to execute the correct qemu-kvm command that sets up usb 2 support for windows 7. This seems to be confirmed because when u try to add the device u only see ohci, and not ehci usb hosts. is this a correct assumption Regards

SL6.1, Kerberos, bind, and MSFT Active Directory
Hello All.
Having some problems getting secure dynamic DNS updates to work with bind in
SL6.1 and windos 2k3 Active Directory. I figure that the problem may be with
bind and kerberos so I setup wireshark to listen on port 88 on the nameserver
(spritle.machx.net) and on the domain controller (chimchim.win.machx.net). The
kerberos realm is win.machx.net or in ms WIN.MACHX.NET
I have gotten kerberos working so that when I do a “kinit”:
kinit -V -k -t /etc/named/spritleDNS.keytab
DNS/spritle.machx@win.machx.net
I get a ticket and I see the kerberos request and reply.
If I do a nsupdate, the update works and I also see a kerberos request and
reply.
If I start bind, I do not get any kerberos traffic at all. If I restart
netlogon on the win2k3 domain controller, I do not get any traffic at all
either. I have run
setsebool -P allow_kerberos 1
Any ideas as to what else I should look at? Relevant stuff is below.
/etc/krb5.conf:
