Re: RH 7.2 GRUB Help

When I tell it to boot from (1,0) it just hangs, although first it does identify the drive as being VFAT or FAT32. I tried using the Map (0,1) and Map (1,0). I tried at least 20 different variations but couldn't get it to boot. I don't have my notes with me right now but I used the commands exactly as stated in the GRUB manual. Hi Greg, I'm new to the list, so if your setup is common knowledge, I apologize. In any case, is the new drive SCSI? If so, your onboard IDE will take the first physical drive slots (C,D,E,F under dos/windows if you have 2 controllers). I don't know of a way around that... I think you'd have to initialize your SCSI BIOS before your IDE BIOS, but maybe someone else has an idea there. If it's not SCSI, and you're working with all IDE drives... I'd like to understand the setup a little better. You've got 2 physical hard drives, 1 is the new one you installed RH7.2, dual boot with XP on and the other is your original 98/SE drive? If you're sure you've got the jumpers on those configured to Master/Slave correctly, they should be working. What -might- be happening under XP, though, is that - IIRC - the physical disk's primary partitions get mapped first, so - if you have 2 drives, lets call them hda and hdb, and you have 2 partitions on hda and one on hdb (hda1, hda2, hdb1) then they'll map like this under windows: hda1 - C: (Assuming it's a windows partition type) hdb1 - D: ( ) hda2 - E: ( ) Now, if you don't have a windows partition type on any of them, just bump up the lower ones... which - sounds to me like what could be going on for you - on hda1, you have linux - unrecognizeable partitionunder windows, So, hdb1 becomes C and hda2 becomes D There's a couple of ways to solve this that might work, one, you might try and throw a small linux partition in front of your 98/SE partition, making the primary be unrecognizeable... but that's really not as clean as just wiping the old drive and installing XP on there. Not sure if it's a good size or not, but, that does seem the cleanest option all around.

Re: Apache server attbi question
Just as a datapoint, I've had my Apache Server accessible via my attbi account for a few months now. Seems to work OK. (eg. Nimbda seems to have no problem hitting the server, 10-20 times a day, and trying to infect me :-) ) The way it's setup is, Apache is on my linux box, which is on my local net. The linux box is attached to my linksys router, which is attached to the attbi cable modem. I have port 80 forwarded, by the linksys, to the local ip number of my linux box. By http'ing to the ip num of my linksys box, this worked OK from the moment I first turned it on. Later, I made my local linux box a subdomain of a domain I have hosted at a commercial service. So access to quadra.da4.com works OK too. One of these days I'm gonna experiment with the mac num.attbi.com stuff to see if I can make it more self maintaining. ...be forewarned, from what I hear, running a server at your end of an attbi connection *is* a violation of your service agreement, contrary to the way things were under M1.

Here's my setup (on ATT's network): SMC Barricade forwarding all sorts of stuff to the server behind. TZO.COM handling DNS for wayga.org (which points at the SMC). Inside, I have a DNS server handling local stuff, but also does DNS for wayga.org (noone else points to it). In this case, both my DNS server and TZO are pointing at the same (physical) machine, but at two different IP addresses. Outside the SMC, the addresses are returned by TZO and users find the SMC box. Inside, the local DNS server finds a response before it goes outside, so it returns the internal address. So no matter if I'm inside or outside the network, I'll always hit the machine.

The way we get around it here is to have a DNS entry in the local hosts file for each machine: This will certainly do it, but I personally don't like maintaining config files on individual hosts when alternatives exist to allow one to make a change in one place, i.e. the DNS. An exception is when there is a mechanism in place to maintain master copies of such files, and distribute them automagically to all the hosts on the network. However, this can be accomplished quite nicely with BIND by running multiple instances of it, one for internal hosts and another for external hosts. You can even run these multiple instances on the same physical machine, by binding the several instances to different addresses, if need be. This isn't workable for every situation, but it should work nicely for multi-homed servers or servers that use IP aliasing. :) This overrides the external reference for that host and uses the internal IP address. Therefore, all references to www.myhost.com/directory are resolved properly. Note that not all services will regard /etc/nsswitch.conf when resolving hosts. Sendmail is a notable exception...

I was given a rationale for this once, but I can't remember what it was. There is a way to make it use nsswitch.conf, via configuration option.

Re: RH 7.2 GRUB Help
Hmmm, my problem is specific to GRUB. I can easily boot the machine to any of the OS's by rejumpering drives. Here is my exact config. Drive 0 (Primary, IDE) Partition 1 - /boot - GRUB and Boot Partition 2 - Windows XP (E: Drive) Partition 3 - / Partition 4 - first logical - swap - second logical - F: Drive - Data Drive 1 (Slave, IDE, same IDE Channel) Partition 1 - Windows 98SE (Drive C: both if rejumpered as master or in this exact same configuration as recognized by Windows XP, I can mount it under Linux as /mnt/win98se and easily read the drive (/dev/hdb1)) With this environment I can easily boot, via GRUB to both Windows XP and Linux. The problem is that I can't boot the Windows 98SE drive. Should I be able to? I know this would not normally work but GRUB does some things to allow it (I think). I know the drives are up and running normally. This is simply a GRUB boot question. Does anyone have something similar running?

I think you'd have to initialize your SCSI BIOS before your IDE BIOS, but maybe someone else has an idea there. If it's not SCSI, and you're working with all IDE drives... I'd like to understand the setup a little better. You've got 2 physical hard drives, 1 is the new one you installed RH7.2, dual boot with XP on and the other is your original 98/SE drive? If you're sure you've got the jumpers on those configured to Master/Slave correctly, they should be working. What -might- be happening under XP, though, is that - IIRC - the physical disk's primary partitions get mapped first, so - if you have 2 drives, lets call them hda and hdb, and you have 2 partitions on hda and one on hdb (hda1, hda2, hdb1) then they'll map like this under windows: hda1 - C: (Assuming it's a windows partition type) hdb1 - D: ( ) hda2 - E: ( ) Now, if you don't have a windows partition type on any of them, just bump up the lower ones... which - sounds to me like what could be going on for you - on hda1, you have linux - unrecognizeable partitionunder windows, So, hdb1 becomes C and hda2 becomes D There's a couple of ways to solve this that might work, one, you might try and throw a small linux partition in front of your 98/SE partition, making the primary be unrecognizeable... but that's really not as clean as just wiping the old drive and installing XP on there.

Re: Apache server attbi question
On Tue, 2 Apr 2002, Rich C wrote: I have found this to be the case with my setup, but I thought it was due to my SMC router. When I set up a virtual host in the router to route http port 80 to my internal machine (192.168.1.x) port 80, the web site is NOT visible from inside the network, but it IS visible to people outside. We have this same problem here at work with Microsoft's RAS router software too. I don't know what the mechanism is, but somehow, outgoing http requests to the same IP address are being ignored instead of looped back. Changing the port to something different either on the inside or outside does not affect this behavior. I just set up a SmoothWall box this weekend as a router/firewall for a friend's home net, and saw this same behavior. We took the Mandrake box that had previously shared NAT and server duties and brought it inside, with ports (including 80 8080) forwarded from the Smoothie. Local connections to Apache are now only possible by giving the internal IP of the server box; the old URL still works fine from the outside world - and yes, he's on attbi. :) One nice feature of SmoothWall is the inclusion of scripts to update any one of several Dynamic DNS providers automagically - we used the one for dhs.org (and it worked), but they include one for dyndns.org also. As for using the hostname assigned by attbi, I've never had a problem with it before or after the change from MediaOne. It just works. I have a new domain, less than a week old, using DNS from Granite Canyon; I just set up a CNAME record to point to my attbi hostname, and all is well. -- Bill Mullen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Apr 2, 2002 * To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the text 'unsubscribe gnhlug' in the message body. *

It's just the nature of routing. Set your browser up to use a proxy server (Mediaone used to use http://www.ne.mediaone.net/proxy/proxy.pac for auto configuration), and it should work fine. The traffic has to go out of your network, then back in. C-Ya, Kenny -- Tact is just *not* saying true stuff -- Cordelia Chase Kenneth E.

Re: Apache server attbi question
On Tue, 2 Apr 2002, Kenny Donahue wrote: I am really stuck. I changed my dyndns.org info to show ne.client2.attbi.com but I still get nothing. I tried changing apache to use port 91(random number) instead of 8080 in case attbi was blocking 8080. I tried using the IP address of my Linksys firewall directly so the port forward should pass it on but still nothing. Even stranger, I don't see the attempt coming in in the Linksys log. Can anyone help? Well, not having direct experience with the Linksys, this is only a guess, but are these ports being blocked at the router? On the SmoothWall box I set up this weekend (see other post), there are two steps to a successful port forward; first you set up the forwarding itself, then you tell the router to allow connections on that port. The former without the latter accomplishes nothing, as the packets never arrive to be forwarded. Perhaps something similar is going on there. -- Bill Mullen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Apr 2, 2002 * To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the text 'unsubscribe gnhlug' in the message body. *
Re: RH 7.2 GRUB Help
On Tue, 2 Apr 2002, Greg Kettmann wrote: Hmmm, my problem is specific to GRUB. I can easily boot the machine to any of the OS's by rejumpering drives. Here is my exact config. Drive 0 (Primary, IDE) Partition 1 - /boot - GRUB and Boot Partition 2 - Windows XP (E: Drive) Partition 3 - / Partition 4 - first logical - swap - second logical - F: Drive - Data Drive 1 (Slave, IDE, same IDE Channel) Partition 1 - Windows 98SE (Drive C: both if rejumpered as master or in this exact same configuration as recognized by Windows XP, I can mount it under Linux as /mnt/win98se and easily read the drive (/dev/hdb1)) With this environment I can easily boot, via GRUB to both Windows XP and Linux. The problem is that I can't boot the Windows 98SE drive. Should I be able to? I know this would not normally work but GRUB does some things to allow it (I think). I know the drives are up and running normally. This is simply a GRUB boot question. Does anyone have something similar running? The GRUB manual gives some great advice but I can't get any combination to work. Well, I'm a LILO user, so my GRUB knowledge is sketchy, but I can get LILO to jump through this hoop, so GRUB must somehow be able to also. In /etc/lilo.conf, I would make an entry thusly: other=/dev/hdb1 label=Win98se table=/dev/hdb map 0x80 to 0x81 map 0x81 to 0x80 The two map/to pairs are the only difference from a stock entry. What they do: Fool the BIOS into thinking that hda is hdb and vice versa. Why you need to do it: Because Win98 is very fussy about what drive it's on. It was on C: when you installed it, it wants to be on C: when it runs - and unlike XP, it starts counting drive letters from /dev/hda1. So, while running *XP* the hdb1 partition is seen as C:, but while attempting to run *98se* the same partition is seen as E: (because it's the third FAT partition, counting up from hda1). 98se says, Hey, I'm not on C:, I'm not going anywhere. The LILO entry means that when booting this o/s, first swap the drives in the BIOS so that this o/s thinks that *it* is on hda, and the *other* disk is hdb. Find the GRUB equivalent (or switch to LILO), and you're in business. :) -- Bill Mullen [EMAIL PROTECTED] Apr 2, 2002 * To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the text 'unsubscribe gnhlug' in the message body. *

Re: [off topic] legislation
The web site http://thomas.loc.gov (no www) should list it. It has been around since early 1996 and has gone through several face changes since then. It comes with an excellent search engine which can locate and display the text of any bill introduced to either House and all the subsequent changes/amendments. If such a bill was signed into law, that should be shown clearly. There are many different kinds of keys that can be used for search on that site. If I am not mistaken, last time I visited it, it listed bills dating back to at least 1992, if not earlier. Beware that the above Thomas web site has a certain latency, which in the past I found it to be of the order of one day. Some legislators seem to be aware of it and try to circumvent it by introducing their bills as amendments to bills about to be voted on. CF Derek D.
