_Running Linux_ attempts to be distro-agnostic, and succeeds fairly
well. If you buy the Professional edition of SuSE, you get a rather
large book geared to those people who want to know more about the
traditional system administration side of things. (They used to ship
that book with all their distros; when they split into "Pro" and
"Personal", they left the big technical book out of "Personal".)
Most of what applies to RedHat applies to SuSE. Main differences are
that SuSE has slightly different locations for init scripts and some
software packages (init scripts in /etc/init.d/ , KDE, Netscape, and
StarOffice get put in /opt instead of /usr/X11R6/bin/ ), SuSE does
not use "User Private Groups", and SuSE now includes ReiserFS as an
option in their distros. ReiserFS is still a post-install add-on for
RedHat.
Best approach, IMHO, is to install several different distros on a
machine and play around with each one, learning the differences and
gotchas.

Hi,
I guess I should have stated this differently from my previous post. After
I installed qpopper and used it, the properties/output of ps -ef changed to
the following.
PID TTY STAT TIME COMMAND
2979 ? S 0:00 -bash HOME=/home/frank USER=frank LOGNAME=frank
PATH=/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/bin MAIL=/var/spool/mail/frank SH
3000 ? R 0:00 \_ ps -ef LESSOPEN=|/usr/bin/lesspipe.sh %s USERNAME=
HISTSIZE=1000 HOSTNAME=troy-net-svr1 LOGNAME=frank SSH_T
as apposed to the traditional.
PID TT S TIME COMMAND
4194 pts/0 S 0:00 /bin/tcsh
29177 pts/0 S 5:49 elm/bin/elm
3554 pts/3 S 0:00 -tcsh
25251 pts/5 S 0:00 -tcsh
21040 pts/6 S 0:00 login -p -h ladybird -f claret
21041 pts/6 S 0:01 -tcsh
Does this mean I've been hacked or have a security issue from an install? I
don't understand how an installation can change the display properties of
the ps command.

No, that is probably too early in the boot sequence. You could try
putting the setterm statement in /etc/init.d/boot.local. I set one there
to powersave when it blanks, but have not rebooted yet since I set it.

You might like to take a look at a program called: "fetchmail" which is
capable of connecting to a remote site and download all of your mail for you
to your local host at a specified interval.
You might like to check out the following page:
http://www.linuxdoc.org/LDP/LG/issue45/pollman/fetchmail.html
This page provides a very simple overview of how it can be done.

Does anyone know that proper syntax of the rules needed to enable

My rules are "deny all" and "masq" and "allow web".
I'd like to allow NAPSTER traffic as well.....
Anyone ?

You should never type 'xhost +' at all. 'xhost +' basically gives any
user from any host X privileges on your machine.
If you use xhost, type 'xhost + <hostname>', e.g. 'xhost + localhost'
or 'xhost + myhost'.
To do this automatically add the 'xhost + localhost' or whatever to
~/.profile of the user you are using the 'super' commands from.

Basically they just are different programs with the same purpose,
which happen to have the same name.
I suggest using 'ps -aux' with BSD ps commands.
New versions of the Linux ps command give a System-V-style listing
with the '-ef' option IIRC.

it is the same with each distribution that uses sysv init. you have to
customize the /etc/rcx.d (or /etc/rc.d/rcx.d) directories. each rcx.d
directory contains the actions that are to be executed when entering
runlevel x. by convention, the files there are symbolic links to
/etc/init.d (or /etc/rc.d/init.d) prefixed by Sxx or Kxx, xx being two
digits determining the order in which the K or S files get executed. if
you want e.g. runlevel 2 not to start up with X, go into /etc/rc2.d and
rename all Sxx... files that refer to X services or delete them.

should be no problem. afaik, the debian sources are the same as the kernels
from kernel.org, without patches. redhat kernels tend to have extra patches,
so you should be careful when mixing, but otherwise everything should be
fine. you might have to be careful when compiling programs that interact
with the kernel. at one point i was trying to compile a version of ppp that
didn't have redhat patches and ran into kernel compilation problems because
one of the functions in the kernel section had a call to another kernel
routine that was incompatible with one of the redhat patches

If you have a Slackware CD, you can boot from it, possibly from another

Subject: Re: Adding a Adaptec 2940 to Linux
Date: Sat, 14 Apr 2001 20:11:11 -0500
IMHO, there are a lot of problems using the 2940 with Suse 7.0.
Here is what I have to do to get my Suse 7.0 system to boot:
lilo: manual
<Tell it the language and display type>
When it asks if I want to boot, I tell it to load device modules. I select
SCSI adapter, then I select Adaptec 2940. Now comes the important part. It
asks if I have any parameters for the device, and I enter
aic7xxx='seltime:0.extended.no_reset'
Next, it goes through a detection phase, finds my adapter and all of its
devices (two hard drives and a CDROM drive). Then, when it asks if I want to
begin installing Linux, I tell it to boot an existing installation. Then, it
asks where to boot, and I tell it /dev/sda4. Then, it boots and runs,
perfectly.
However, I have tried about forty ways to just start the machine and have it
boot my installation. Nothing ever works. It either fails to detect the host
adapter, or it detects it and then gets repeated timeouts. So, the above
procedures are a pain, but they work.

I assume this output means that nmbd is not running correctly but in my
/var/log/messages has no errors in starting smb or nmb. I have a
firewall running, what port has to be open for samba?

Let me clarify. I have a boot CD and bootable floppy. I have Corel Linux and
it has an option for "recovery console" or something like that. When I go
into that I've tried to use liloconfig but it doesnt work. Anyone know the
right commands to install LILO

you can always not use the minus to get BSD behavior.

I'm afraid I don't see this; in the context of this specific
discussion thread, while he was being fairly disagreeable, so was the
person he was responding to. I'd consider his comments sarcastic, or
perhaps acerbic, but asinine doesn't fit very well.
How _should_ someone respond to a question that's figuratively not
much different from "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?"
