FC3, Apache2 and MS FrontPage 2002 server extentsions
by Brian McDonald
Does anyone out there actually have the combination of Fedora Core 3 and
Apache2 and MS FrontPage 2002 server extensions actually working?
Please tell me how you got it to work.

Announce - Silentcat diskless NBD boot for FC3
by Andy Green
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
Hi -
NFS diskless booting is well established for Linux and works reasonably
well, if a little slowly.
However Linux also supports a "Network Block Device", in Redhat
modularized as nbd.ko, which is capable to make a remotely served file
appear as a local block device, eg, /dev/nda. You can mount this device
as if it was a regular local HDD. It operates very quickly over the
network and is perfectly capable to replace a local Hard Drive. (In
fact depending on the server spec, it can operate faster than a local HDD).
The silentcat project consists of instructions on setting up PXELINUX,
DHCP and TFTP, some usermode code and scripts to generate a 1GB ext3
filesystem file on a Linux server, and export this using the NBD
protocol such that a diskless client PC can boot from the server over
the network and have the remote filesystem file exported over NBD come
up as the root filesystem on the client machine.
The scripts also install a minimal runlevel 3 Fedora Core 3 distro into
the remote filesystem by auto-downloading a minimal set of FC3 RPMs and
installing them into the filesystem. Yum and RPM are included in this
minimal set, so once you boot your client from this filesystem you can
pull in any other RPMs you need (x.org. KDE, samba, etc) conveniently
using yum. The base, update and Dag repos are configured for use with yum.
Multiple clients are supported from a single server, each directed to
its own filesystem based on client PC MAC address.
~From the server point of view, exporting NBD filesystem files is a lot
simpler, faster and more secure than NFS, particularly is circumstances
forced the use of "no root squash".
Silentcat is in use here with a diskless EPIA board that boots into KDE
and performs mplayer-based mediaplayer duties and is proving very fast
and reliable.
http://warmcat.com/silentcat has the details and scripts. Comments welcome!

I will not top post anymore
by Phil
Due to the overwhelming number of responses to my post, I finally
understand why some people do not like top posting. I may not agree
with it but I will respect it.
I will not longer top post to this list.

Re: Possible Apache or Squirrelmail bug?
by Corey Head
The trailing slash gets me the Forbidden error still.
Can you expand on 'canonify error'?
Thanks!

Strange tripwire behaviour
by Tony Molloy
Hi All,
I run tripwire each night on all my servers to check for file changes.
This morning I noticed something strange. On this server tripwire was
installed on 26th Nov last.
[root@keano ~]# rpm -qa --last | grep tripwire
tripwire-2.3.1-18.fdr.3.1 Fri Nov 26 13:31:50 2004
Now for some reason when it was run last night the following changes had
occured to the tripwire executable. Changes to the Inode Number, the
block count, the CRC32 and MD5 checksums.
Modified object name: /usr/sbin/tripwire
Property: Expected Observed
------------- -----------
Object Type Regular File Regular File
Device Number 2053 2053
* Inode Number 681532 681460
Mode -rwxr-xr-x -rwxr-xr-x
Num Links 1 1
UID root (0) root (0)
GID root (0) root (0)
Size 1281752 1281752
Modify Time Sun Nov 30 20:21:01 2003 Sun Nov 30 20:21:01
2003
* Blocks 2520 2512
* CRC32 CpVcDQ C/vQ0R
* MD5 CFFTZS34tssRvsudSHxqNn
AOg63JUMfON3CDJOE/e2sz
Now a similar change occured on all 20 of my servers last night so I don't
think it was a compromise. At least I hope not.
Any ideas.
Regards,
Tony

strange iptables behavior
by Mike McGrath
I've got an odd iptables issue going on. Here's the setup. Host A is
using mod_jk to connect to host B running a tomcat instance on port
9009. It will work fine for a while and then I start getting denies for
no reason. When the denies start happening, the website I'm trying to
bring up freezes in the middle of the page. If I click stop and reload
the page sometimes it will come up, sometimes it will not and I will
continue getting denies. Also when its in the middle of loading a page
and it freezes, if I flush all the iptables rules out the page will
load. I'm running Fedora Core 3 on both machines, Here are my iptables
rules:

Fedora 2 not booting
by Rithin Shetty
Hi,
I have been running FC 2 on my IBM T42 for the last six months or
so without any issues. But suddenly it is refusing to boot today. I
have a dual boot setup with Grub allowing me to choose between Win XP
and Linux. I don't seem to have any issues in booting into Win XP but
when I try to boot into Linux it stops at "Red Hat nash version 3.5.22
starting". I tried to boot into single user mode as well but without
any success.
Has anyone else faced this problem in the past ? Some help would
be very helpful in rescuing my data.
Thanks,
Rithin.

Upgrading KDE in FC2
by Phil
Hi,
Can I upgrade my KDE in Fedora Core 2 by using the binairies from the
KDE website or will it cause more problems then using up2date?

not from Fedora...
Thanks.

python-imaging
by Rakotomandimby (R12y) Mihamina
Hi all,
I had to install python imaging on a server, and my only way to find it
was to take it from here:
http://apt.ling.li/rpms/python-imaging/
Is there any "official" fedora release of it?
I mean... It depends on libtcl8.xxx.so na libtk8.xxx.so.
If I update the server, I might break and I wxant to have it on an
official repository. I dont want to have hundreds of repositorie listed
in my yum.conf either. Is it available even as an unstable package but
on the fedora repo?
