Hello everyone,
Can someone plese post a faq on Sybase ASE installation in Redhat Linux?
I'm a newbie to Linux (1 week) and Sybase (3 weeks) although I have some
background in Unix and MS SQL. Got a book on Linux, few books on Sybase but
I noticed that each version and Operating system platform has certain
differences.
Linux is running without X windows yet. I still have to download
X drivers for my SIS 6326 video card. I've also extracted Sybase
using Redhat Package Manager to /opt/sybase
I need to find out the permissions, block directory structure and
general installation procedure. Don't know how to access the documentation
(*.gif files) from a Win95 station yet.
Any input on directory size requirements, connectivity via Win95- Sybase
Central, etc. I've tried open client at work.
Thanks in advance

The simplest way to add a cron job under redhat is to add a working script
to /etc/cron.daily, hourly, weekly, monthly. However, this may not meet
your needs.

I think you should try the new dhcpcd rpm. Redhat 5.2's dhcpcd doesn't work,
so you should upgrade, if you haven't already.
You could try configuring the IP address manually, if you have a static one.
This would show whether dhcpcd is to balme or not

i hate to say it, but i have to....
the installation problem is that of the admin's competency, not the OS.
while i had a few problems with the install, it was solely due to the
diverse variety (non-standardization? non-comformance to standards??)
of the pee-cee equipment NOT the OS. once the quirks of your particular
hardware are known then linux is quite capable and not that difficult to
install. in short - blame the hardware manufacturers, not the poor
souls
left trying to sort out the mess during the install.
as for uptimes, i've personally seen 4+ months on machines without UPS's
and that i don't take seriously. on the other side of the coin, those
same machines weren't under much of a load.
as for one under a load, i have one that's been up for over 30 days at
since the last reboot due to modifications that required it. prior to
that i was seeing 4 to 6 weeks, again, with reboots only due to
upgrades/mods. this machine is a 486-dx4/100, no cache, 6gb of disk,
and
two network cards. it provides NAT, DNS, mail (host and pop/imap), http
proxy, samba file/print services, DHCP, news, and a ssh/ppp VPN tunnel
to
another site running a sparc 20 under solaris 2.6. NOT ONE DAMN HITCH!
sure, it could use some cache, a faster CPU, SCSI disks (vs. eide
_crap_)
but for $0.00 investment it works - and works well. it was a
hand-me-down
from someone who had to have a 'fast' machine (if there is such a
pee-cee)
to run winblows (aka-CPU pig). sure, i'd prefer to have another sparc
doing
the job, but capability-per-dollar it can't be beat (note i said
'capability'
_not_ performance). this particular platform wouldn't be my first
choice if
wanting to run linux as a personal workstation with staroffice and
netscape,
but i certainly wouldn't turn it down as a freebie. as to providing
basic
network services where the network often tends to be a bigger bottleneck
than
the host it is *extremely* viable.
btw, the linux box _is_ scheduled to be replace by another sparc 20, but
it
got us going in the near term, while arranging for the long term
solution.
notice something? no problem with linux matching wits with solaris.
since
linux is a **IX derivative i was able to take my 'true' **IX services
and
configure them on the linux box. this linux box can participate as a
'service'
equal to the sparc although certainly not a 'performance' equal.
context
switching on an x86 and i/o on an IDE device can't come close to sparc
(or
rs/6000, alpha, etc. pick your preference) and SCSI.
back to uptimes - M$ has been quite boastful about NT running for 'up to
28
days'. sadly enough, the reboots at that point are not normally
'scheduled'.
i think most **IX admins would agree - if our track record were that bad
we'd
be on the street (voluntarily?) looking for a new line of work. hell,
win95
can't even go 28 hours without displaying its BSOD (blue screen of
death,
ie - the 'windows screensaver'). typical **IX machines run for months
(often 12 or more) without a need for rebooting - voluntarily or
otherwise.
as for our novell friend - nothing wrong with that as a solution, and
from
my observations, just about as reliable in many ways. novell's only
downside
is that it is not as flexible or widely supported as **IX. you can't
cheaply
and easily source alternative solutions to your network needs as with
the **IX
world. regardless, novell is certainly viable in a small (even medium?)
sized
operation that wants a 'turn-key' solution and little administrative
overhead.
unfortunately, it is also a proprietary solution that leaves you buying
solutions
rather than providing them.
naturally IMHO,
dp

# elections. The default value should be reasonable

# Domain Master specifies Samba to be the Domain Master Browser. This
# allows Samba to collate browse lists between subnets. Don't use this

# the default order is "host lmhosts wins bcast". "host" means use the unix
# system gethostbyname() function call that will use either /etc/hosts OR
# DNS or NIS depending on the settings of /etc/host.config, /etc/nsswitch.conf
# and the /etc/resolv.conf file. "host" therefore is system configuration
# dependant. This parameter is most often of use to prevent DNS lookups
# in order to resolve NetBIOS names to IP Addresses. Use with care!
# The example below excludes use of name resolution for machines that are NOT
# on the local network segment
# - OR - are not deliberately to be known via lmhosts or via WINS.

# WINS Proxy - Tells Samba to answer name resolution queries on
# behalf of a non WINS capable client, for this to work there must be
# at least one WINS Server on the network. The default is NO.
