Security, DOS, etc, firewalling...
We have already some attempts to solve this notes.
tcp_wrappers is one (I see it as temporary solution);
rlinetd; xinetd.
So we can see that people agree with that "plain" inetd is
not perfect. But that inetd replacements are not perfect too

In theory it shouldnt matter. DHCP servers are suppo
That may be, but that misses the important point. Your addresses are
statically assigned based on hardware. So what does the lease _really_
matter? They'll get the same IP back. My concern is that my IP is
dynamically given, theoretically with a 30 day lease which Windows boxes
DO get, yet pum
Pete,
I don't understand what the problem is. I have dhpcd working in a lab
running rh6.0 clients (with all updates) just fine with pump. As they
say, "works for me".
The server box went down for 36 hours (for a raid reconfig and rebuild
from backup) until yesterday afternoon, and while pump o

Did you ever get an answer/solution for this? I live in an area with
frequent prolonged power failures and a less than totally reliable cable
connection. With 8 hour leases and 45 minute window to renew, one could
frequently lose IP assignment.

Hello RedHat's,
i looked over the latest initscripts rpm from rawhide and saw some
constructs like
"cat file | grep expression" in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit.
Well, don't you thing a simple "grep expression file" is easier & faster ?

The spec file for ncurses has LDFLAGS=-s (strip symbols), yet also
has the configure options of --with-debug and --with-profile
Umm...why bother with debugging if your gonna strip it away...
Using %configure makes it more portable too.

Well you to to make sure that initscripts only use util
I'm creating a SIMPLE Rdist routine to update two DNS Masters. They
both are identically patched RedHat 5.2 (Linux 2.2.4 kernels) servers.
However, rdist complains that it cannot find rdistd on the remote server
with the simple command:
[root@access /root]# rdist -f /root/DNS.distfile
access2.
I wanted to download all of the RH6.0 Errata web pages, for offline
browsing while doing upgrades (and burning onto my upgrade files CDROM),
so I wrote the following quick hack, which someone might find useful.
