Did you burn them as iso images (ie select that option in your burner
software)?  If you just burn the iso files as is, you will have a CD with the
image file on it, but not the files contained within the image.  This is not an
uncommon mistake unfortunately. I had no problem downloading, burning and
installing RH7.

An iso file cannot be extracted. You can burn it directly. Most burning
programs have something like 'create cd from iso image' or 'create cd
from image file'.

With cdrecord, you can do 'cdrecord -v -data -dev=<your_device> speed=2
<iso-file>'.

Did you update modutils? The old modutils won't work with 2.4 kernel,
as the modules tree layout is different. See Documentation/Changes

My $0.02 worth; another vote for RH6.2. Running it
here with no problems, tried 7.0, too many problems.
Red Hat won't be in business much longer if this is
the best they can do. Goes to prove the old adage
"never install software that ends in zero".

BTW, upgrading RH6.2 to XFree86 4 and kernel 2.4.0
went relatively painlessly here (just be sure to
RTFM in both cases, especially with the kernel).

RedHat 7.0 is pretty much ok when all updates have been applied and a
decent C/C++ compiler (eg. 2.95.2) has been installed.

I run run it now without problems.

I agree, however, that RedHat should make a better effort. Such
as putting a glibc beta (numerous bugs have been fixed - far too many to
make the beta a release) and a non-working compiler in seems horrible to
me.

And even when gcc is upgraded to their lates update, it broke gawk, made
my 2.4.0 kernel go oops etc.

So my opinion in short: 7.0 is ok when upgraded to the latest bugfixes -
but out of the box it isn't.

Subject: Cluster Idea

I want to implement a linux cluster with the following setup:

1.    A base implementation of 6 node
        (all Pentium 3 650mhz, 64 mb RAM, 10GB HD IDE)
 2.  To  be expanded incrementally with our old 486 workstations.

My idea is to configure all our workstations as a node of the cluster with
the purpose of standardising on SUN StarOffice for all our desktop users in
the our office.

My understanding is that a cluster is like a supercomputer so that
StarOffice will run on a 486 node using the resources of the whole cluster.

Will this work?

Hi

  I just compiled version 2.4 of the kernel and was able to create a boot

Dear Neal,

It's a tough decision isn't it?  You can read all you want and you
would still end up thinking is this really what you want.

Anyways, partitioning a drive is very much a personal preference.
Even if you follow some of the recommendation from the HOWTO's or
FAQ's you still might feel that this is not quite what I wanted.
There is no right way of doing things when it comes to partitioning
your drive.

Saying that however, I would still suggest you follow the
recommendations on the HOWTO's or FAQ's and try it out for a while.
You can then later change your setting again (something a Linux junkie
often do).

I am using a 45G, and the way I partitioned is as follows:

/ 500M
/boot 15M
/tmp 2G
/usr 4G
/home 8G
/home/ftp/incoming 2G
/tftp 2G
/iso 8G
/var 2G
/extra <the rest>

Hope this offer some comfort, and don't be afraid to do the
partitioning.

Regards.

Not quite and there is no reason you cannot use octals.  The directory
should be chmod 2775 so it looks like:  drwxrwsr-x

This will automatically give all files created there the group of the
directory.  However, users that have 022 umask would still need to do a
chmod g+w on files for the group to be able to write to them.

Did you perhaps compile for an architecture more advanced than you

Someone else asked the opposite question about an HP 4ML.  I think that
one was printing double size (1/4 page filled the page).  Setting the
print filter to 300 dpi seemed to solve that.  But I wonder if that
printer really is 300 dpi (like my HP 4L which is just smoothed to look
like 600 dpi).

But your print filter may be sending 300 dpi data to a 600 dpi printer.  
See if the print filter has a 600 dpi setting.

You must be installing an old RH version because that kernel version has a
possible security exploit and should be replaced with 2.2.16 or newer.

If you set up the network scripts, are you sure that it is not loading
automatically during boot (what does lsmod show)?  Typically all you need
is something like the following in /etc/conf.modules:

alias eth0 tulip

Then use linuxconf (or netcfg in X) to set up the IP, etc.
However, you may have an irq conflict.  My soundcard was using irq 10 and
my nic would not work until I changed the soundcard to something else.

The problem was that until recently LILO and the kernel had to be under
cyl 1024 (around 8 GB on a translated drive).  I am not sure if the Win98
MBR can boot beyond that, but reinstalling Windows can replace the MBR
which would interfere with booting to Linux.  For this reason when
starting fresh with a new drive, I put a 16 MB /boot partition first, then
a primary Windows partition, then the rest of Linux can go anywhere on any
drive (primary or logical).

With LILO on the /boot partition you can switch the active boot partition
between LILO or Windows from Linux or Windows fdisk (or lilo options) and
don't have to worry about Windows overwriting the MBR.  But the only
reason you would switch from LILO would be if Windows needs it to be able
to hyberinate, or you wanted to to a totally fresh Linux install.

>2. Does windows98 require itself to be in a primary partition, or will it
>work properly if i install it to a logical partition?

It usually needs to be a primary partition on the first drive, unless you
have a BIOS that can make any drive the boot drive.  Some people are under
the impression that Windows has to be the first partition, but that is NOT
true.  I actually have 2 /boot partitions under it, but would avoid
putting any extended partitions below it, just to be safe.

Also you can mix Linux and FAT logical partitions in an extended
partition, but the extended partition has to be the proper type (f).

Hi all ...

Well, I finally got Red Hat 7 up and running ... I am typing to

Here's a question though ...

Is there any tool for aligning the screen?

It is about 20 or so pixels too far to the right vs. the same
resolution in Windows ME.

I checked my monitor and the vertical and horizontal refresh rates
are identical.

Is there any way to adjust this whole display a little to the left or
am I going to have to realign my monitor every time I switch back and
forth between Linux and Windows?

Thanks!

Subject: Config DNS for forward how?
Date: Fri, 19 Jan 2001 22:59:20 -0700

Here's my setup (note: the names have been changed to protect the guilty) --

I have a Linux server running as a firewall/NAT machine (plus some other
services).  The machine has two NICs and two IP addresses -- one to the
outside world, 123.45.67.89, and one to the inside world, 192.168.0.1.  The
outside address is registered as mydomain.net, with a wildcard CNAME so
that, from the outside world, anything.mydomain.net resolves to
123.45.67.89.

The Linux server also runs a DNS for all computers on the internal network,
so that, internally, I can resolve bart.mydomain.net, lisa.mydomain.net, and
maggie.mydomain.net to 192.168.0.2, 192.168.0.3, and 192.168.0.4,
respectively and specifically.

Now, I've set up a Windows 2000 Server inside the domain, running a domain
of its own.  The machine is named burns, and it runs the domain
nuclear.mydomain.net.  I set up the Linux box (homer.mydomain.net)'s DNS so
that burns.mydomain.net and nuclear.mydomain.net both resolve to that
machine, 192.168.0.5.  burns is also a DNS for the subdomain, so it will
resolve burns.nuclear.mydomain.net back to 192.168.0.5.

Here comes the question.

How do I tell homer to forward DNS lookups for *.nuclear.mydomain.net to
burns?  I need to do this because, when I add the Windows 2000 workstation
smithers to the nuclear domain, it will attempt to contact the DNS
burns.nuclear.mydomain.net to resolve both burns.nuclear.mydomain.net and
smithers.nuclear.mydomain.net.

Here's what I've tried:

I've tried having bart, lisa, maggie, and smithers using both machines for
DNS lookups, but no matter which order I try, I end up getting the wrong or
no address for everybody (either homer returns the address for
nuclear.mydomain.net when either smithers.nuclear.* or burns.nuclear.* are
requested, or burns for some reason returns homer's address for anything not
in the nuclear domain).  I've tried setting burns up to forward to homer for
DNS lookups and having bart, lisa, maggie, and smithers using only burns,
but (this one's weird) burns returns the EXTERNAL IP address 123.45.67.89
for mydomain.net for anything not in the nuclear subdomain.

What I think would be the way to go is to have homer's DNS set up to forward
to burns for nuclear.* addresses.  I don't know if I am setting it up wrong,
or if it's just not possible, but in either case, I am failing to get it to
work.  Is it not correct to enter:

zone "nuclear.mydomain.net" {
 type forward;
 forward only;
 forwarders 192.168.0.5;
};

before the:

zone "mydomain.net" {
 type master;
 file "pz/mydomain.net";
 allow-update 192.168.*;
 allow-query 192.168.*;
};

in my /etc/named.conf file?  What can I do to make this work?
