Help for ftp server activation (ftpd)
by denis
My need is to ftp between two boxes directly connected by Ethernet.
Ping is OK. Security level has set the two eth0 as trusted interfaces.
ftp connect say: connection rejected.
My FC1 install was all but the servers.
No info or man on ftpd.
I can't figure out if I need to install a specific rpm and what,
or if it is a settings problem.

RE: Email Servers? Basic advise needed.
by Ron Henderson
Do you think Sendmail would work with the Linux-Ha project? Is there any
documentation you can point me to for sendmail?

Subject: Re: Email Servers? Basic advise needed.
Hello all,
I am looking at building my first Linux email system. I very
much would like to use Linux over windows/exchange for all the obvious
reasons. The Servers need to host @1400 pop3 accounts. I was wondering
if
any of you could tell me if it is possible to cluster multiple mail
servers
for redundancy/performance. What distro / mail server software do you
all
recommend?
Ron
I switched to sendmail four years ago and never regretted my decision to
do
so. Admitedly there have been a couple of security issues in that time
but
doing the patches saves the heartache. I have looked at failover
solutions
but can't really comment on clustering because I've never done it up to
now.
Sendmail hasn't skipped a beat in that time so I never persued it any
further. The previous windows solution needed a poke every week to keep
it
running and I must have saved hours of the 'is the email server
running?'
questions to more than make up for doing the switch.
Have fun which ever solution you pick but I can recommend Sendmail no
worries.
Bry

DVD install
by Wayne Steenburg
While browsing the list I found quite a few posts concerning DVD
installs. After quite a few attempts I was able to make the proper
iso. On the off chance this will help someone, here's what I did.
First of all get the script at
ftp://people.redhat.com/ckloiber/mkdvdiso.sh
I copied the iso's and the script into a directory. The first time I ran
it I got an error about not finding an anaconda-runtime file.(I forget
the name. It sounded like it is used to add the md5sum to the image). A
quick "yum install anaconda-runtime" solved that problem.
With two terminal windows open I could see the script creating the
directories for the image as well as the final image in ~/mkrhdvd.
However the script would then delete everything in that directory
without leaving my output file. When I specified the absolute path to my
output file it worked great.
So if the iso's and script are in the same directory, cd to that
directory and the following ought to work:
sh mkdvdiso.sh `pwd` `pwd`/outputname.iso
I ran this as root, but that might be unnecessary. Also note that those
are back-quotes not single quotes. I hope this helps someone, but if not
it was good just to figure it out :)

Mount Drives
by Ryan Duff
I've switched from Mandrake 8.1 to Fedora Core 1. I haven't had any
experience w/ red hat before and in drake you could just right click on the
desktop to mount the drive. How would I go about mounting it under Fedora.
It's a large fat32 drive w/ all my mp3's on it and I was using smb to share
it out on my network for all the computers to access. Thanks for the help.

Upgrade from FC1 base kernel to 2.6.3: cannot start X (/dev/tty0 permission denied??)
by VB
When I try to boot my new 2.6.3 kernel I get some
output about /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit /dev/tty0 Permission
denied and then the bootup tries to start the
graphical bootup but returns to normal text bootup.
Once it's time to start gdm the screen just flickers
for a while. My setup works fine booting 2.4.22 on
the same partition, etc. The rc.sysinit error comes at
a line that contains only the code: "> /dev/tty" Any
ideas?
I'm getting errors pretty much wherever some code
tries to access /dev/ttyX. For example, I was getting
errors for lines of code that mentioned /dev/ttyX in
this snippet:
if [ "$HOSTTYPE" != "s390" -a "$HOSTTYPE" != "s390x"
]; then
last=0
for i in `LC_ALL=C grep
'^[0-9].*respawn:/sbin/mingetty' /etc/inittab | sed
's/^.* tty\([0-9][0-9]*\).*/\1/g'`; do
> /dev/tty$i
last=$i
done
if [ $last -gt 0 ]; then
> /dev/tty$((last+1))
> /dev/tty$((last+2))
fi
fi
and finally this one:
loadkeys $KEYMAP < /dev/tty0 > /dev/tty0 2>/dev/null
&& \
success $"Loading default keymap" || failure
$"Loading default keymap"
A related question I have is do I have to modify
/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit when upgrading from 2.4 to 2.6
kernel? Some tutorials have mentioned it, others haven't...

Compaq HNW-200 on FC1/RH9 will not work!!
by VB
Hello,
I've been trying to get my atmel-based Compaq HNW-200
USB Wireless Adapter to work on RH9 and now FC1
forever!
It seems the driver was installed properly (I
installed the 2002-12-09 snapshot of atmelwlandriver)
as this is what dmesg gives:
prism2_init: prism2_usb.o: 0.2.1-pre14 Loaded
prism2_init: dev_info is: prism2_usb
usb.c: registered new driver prism2_usb

at76c503.c: using BSSID 02:00:5e:28:7a:4a
I think one of the problems now is that I installed
prism2 (installed kernel-wlan-ng-0.2.1-pre14.i686.rpm,
kernel-wlan-ng-modules-fc1.1.2115-0.2.1-pre14.i686.rpm,
kernel-wlan-ng-usb-0.2.1-pre14.i686.rpm)? But my card
wasn't working before anyways.
I run iwconfig with the proper parameters, at least I
should hope. One funny thing is that when I pass the
key, which is a 26-digit ASCII string, with the s:
prefix the actual key prints out differently when I
re-run iwconfig so I've just been passing in the ASCII
string without the s: prefix.
I'm also confused on what exactly I do after this? I'm
supposed to run ifconfig and assign an IP? Buy what
about DHCP?

Sound Card Detection and Grub Loader
by pdamelio@quartus.net
Hello
My name is Paul D'Amelio and I just installed Fedora Core 1 in my Dell
computer.
I have a couple of questions that I would like to ask:
My system has a Sound Blaster live sound card and the sound card detection
utility within the Gnome desktop doesn't detect that I have a sound card
at all. I would like to know what's required to activate it.
My system has two hard drives and I installed Fedora on the second drive.
The first drive is formatted as NTFS running XP Pro. During the install I
looked at the help file and it was suggested that if NT is installed then
place the loader on the Linux partition. I can only boot into Linux via a
bootdisk. Is their a way to select lilo instead without having to
re-install?
Regards
Paul D
