Re: [LIH]Redhat 9 Crawls
128 MB of RAM, with GNOME/KDE is just bad nowdays. Use a *light* windowmanager, like windowmaker/icewm, turn off the themes, stop your gnome/kde apps, and try it. 256 MB of RAM is a must with KDE/Gnome stuff. You could recompile Mozilla and strip or a lot of components as well. Yeah very much truei am having 64 mb with rh 9.0 installed and using blackbox...its really smooth. Some of the appications which require memory are Evolution, Mozilla and Openoffice. I have replaced Evolution with sylpheed...(which is very much good on low memory.), Thinking of replacing mozilla with firebird..though mozilla is somewhat ok on blackbox Regards G.Vinubalaji --- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Parasoft Error proof Web apps, automate testing more.

Re: [LIH]Redhat 9 Crawls
how long will it take for me to setup a gentoo machine which has most of the things a normal redhat pc has ? I certainly would love to try out my hand on gentoo. I was vary of taking a step because, i heard that gentoo does not release patches soon and the latest libraries. I dont know how true it is, please correct me if i am wrong. Depends on your connection speed and hardware There r 3 stages of install, if u start from stage1 it will take some real time for building the base system itself. Stage3 is already a built system..i.e its equivalent to cp -ax /mnt/existingsystem /newgentoosystem After that the time depends on the number of packages you choose...

Re: [LIH]Cannot Login from Console.
I am running a Redhat Distro, the machine boots to run level 5, I cannot login to the machine through telnet, but am able to login through ssh, also do you mean root login or any login? As suggested ssh is the way to go, but still if you want to configure telnet for any reason(s) go ahead.. root login is not recommented instead you should login as any user and do a su. the biggest mystery is I am not able to login to the machine through Command Line, but am able to login in GUI mode, in command line it just gives me the login screen, when I enter a user name and press enter it just comes back to the login screen again. The /etc/securetty is fine, no changes made, there are no logs also for me to debug. Any pointers to how to troubleshoot this. The configuration file related to login is /etc/pam.d/login. May be its configured wrongly. You should get some message in the logs for invalid logins or login failure. Otherwise add some debug options in the pam configuration (/etc/pam.d/login). The securetty file should contain the list of all the terminals that the user can login from may be the terminal from which you are trying to login is not listed in /etc/securetty. -G.Vinubalaji --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.

Hi To my understanding you have a windows and/or dos system + a linux and you dual boot using grub, but your grub is being erased when you reinstall windows or some software. If this is what you want then you could just copy the kernel and initrd to the dos partition before reinstalling windows and boot up from pure dos prompt using loadlin. OR Just get a linux boot floppy or a linux boot cd. Any linux cd will do for that matter since you are going to boot in rescue mode only. -G.Vinubalaji --- This SF.net email is sponsored by: The SF.net Donation Program.

and /etc/services... when I restart the postmaster it is not starting

Check out the postgresql init script. All the error messages goes to

you wont know the real error message.
Try to run the command manually without redirecting to /dev/null.

Re: [LIH]The disadvantages of MySQL and PostGreSQL
That was a good reply to the query . However could I get any links which compare the 2 databases? Also I heard that the latest versin of MySQL is better . Google for Mysql vs Postgresql and you will find lots of link related to that and you will finally conclude that both are equally good and there is no specific benchmarking tool. You should find an article on phpbuilder which says Postgresql is better than Mysql and how sourceforge.net performed a real time analysis by shifting from mysql to Postgresql. Mysql site has justifications for this. But i think sourceforge.net uses db2 now. On the whole the performance tuning plays a critical role and the version of the db you use also makes a difference. Postgresql is more full fledged with supports for subqueries, transactions and everything. Mysql is also coming with this support by providing different table types like Berkeley DB tables and InnoDB tables. --- This SF.Net email sponsored by: ApacheCon 2003, 16-19 November in Las Vegas.

Re: [LIH]Problem starting KDE
Edit ~/.xinitrc and put startkde there. Do 'startx log.err 21' and check the error messages in there. They will tell you what is wrong..

Re: [LIH]Problem starting KDE
Yes before that I did try $ echo $DISPLAY and I got :0.0 (To Something in xinit sets the DISPLAY environment value.

Re: [LIH]Linux Installation
Unfortunately I cannot. The reasons are a) the machines do not have exactly the same configuration. b) a couple of machines are under warranty and opening them up will void their warranty. Also, I forgot to mention that I will be using Mandrake 9.1 or 9.2 Yes you can if you have the fairly same hardware. If say you have a different processor then since redhat or Mandrake copies the kernel based on the processor, you cant. The partitioning will be a bit of problem, if you have hard disk of different sizes, but still you can by just changing the ks.cfg (Kick start) file to create different partitions based on the hard disk. ks.cfg is completely configurable and i dont know if mandrake provides the method. There is no need to open the box or anything, you can install using nfs and the ks.cfg. Otherwise check out the softwares like partimage (www.partimage.org) or the systemimager mentioned earlier, which(partimage) also has an option for installing the image from network or write into a cd and install from that.

The peer insists on that level, and so it terminates the Try changing the MPPE encryption level in the client to the value of the server. I think 40 bits is the lowest. -- G.Vinubalaji MultiTech (()) Software Systems --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.

May be think of a separate home partition which could be of 5 GB size or depending on your usage. I don't know how well you can do non destructive resizing of your present root partition, any way you have to boot with a rescue floppy and then resize the partition, but i don't know if its full proof. Another method i can think of is: create a 10 GB (or whatever size you want) partition for the root file system. Copy the existing root file system to this new partition using cp -ax / /newfilesystem Update all your grub.conf and fstab file to point / as this new partition. Empty your old partition and use it for something else. -- G.Vinubalaji MultiTech (()) Software Systems --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.

Re: [LIH]LILO versus GRUB
LILO * has no interactive command interface. * stores information about the location of the kernel or other operating system it is to load on the MBR. * cannot read ext2 partitions. (http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/ref-guide/s1-grub-lil o.html) * Versions of LILO after 22.2 require nasm (http://public.planetmirror.com/pub/lfs/lfs-faq/lfs-faq.html#AEN134) Personally i like grub. The shell is simple to use and even if the grub installation fails for some reason i am landed in a shell through which i could boot to something (No more seeing of L, LI, LIL error messages). For installing new kernels, just editing grub.conf and reboot is easy and saves one step and mbr is not written quite often (but I dont think mbr can be made corrupt by just writing new values to it, its just a sector in the hard disk). I do use lilo on some machines, and i particularly like the -R option of lilo. I dont think that grub supports this -R option. -- G.Vinubalaji MultiTech (()) Software Systems --- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.

Whats your partitioning scheme? Do you have a separate boot partition? I don't know how intelligently a distro can find the existence of the same or any other linux distro and add the corresponding grub or lilo entries. But manually doing should be easy if you know the partitions and use grub or lilo to load the different kernel and the different root file system for different(or same) distro.

When I was installing Rh 10.0 I created a new swap on SDC3 Since you have installed it on separate hard disks, you have each OS on different hard disks. You need to find the partition that your RH 8.0 is installed on. Do fdisk -l /dev/sdb If sdb is your second scsi hard disk which has RF8.0 installed on it. And include that partition in your grub.conf. Read docs on grub. See /etc/grub.conf and understand and try to add the scsi partition that you have found and you are done.

[LIH]gaim proxy help
Hi all, Have been trying this for a while. Googled a lot of times on this. I want to use Gaim to connect using a proxy (with authentication). I did some ethereal capture and see that Gaim uses the CONNECT method, which our firewall (it has squid but it does not allow the CONNECT method) blocks. We have a proxy with user authentication, and when some one uses messenger on a windows machine, it works. My question: Is there anything in gaim to make it work with squid authentication, without using the CONNECT method or is there any other IM client which can be used. I have tried ayttm, but that also does not work and tried many but most of them use the CONNECT method. -- In a World Without Fences Who Needs Gates?
