????? This is totally wrong. Redhat or Mandrake or whoever do NOT keep
their iso packages up to date. Those packages are the same as they were
12 months ago when 7.0 was released. It has all of the bugs and security
holes that it had when released. You MUST do security updates
immediately after you install the OS.
Why do they not update their isos? Who knows.

Well it wasn't essential to reboot but just easier to explain and solve
the problem this way then delving into killing process ID's or forcing
them to reread their environment. Simply speaking the information from
/etc/environment, /etc/groups, /etc/passwd is only read when a session
is initiated. It isn't updated till you log out and login in again.
Rehash may allow your shell to reread certain files but not necessarily
the /etc/groups file.

I think for an fdisk/mbr to work, you may have to be able to see the
C: drive, as you say. I usually use PQMAGICT, which I had
PartitionMagic put on a diskette, boot on a Windows diskette, change
to PQMAGIC diskette, execute PQMAGICT. I hide partitions and make the
one I want for C: Unhid and bootable. Try fdisk from the boot
diskette, choose option 4 and look/see if you've managed to get your
type 44 designated as C: Then do your fdisk/mbr. (I've never had to
use the capitalization for MBR, but I'm willing to believe it may mean
something, Microsoft never documented fdisk/mbr anywhere I was ever
able to read it. I think it's possible that the fdisk/mbr just might
turn the 'type 44' back into a civilized Windows partition???
If you coexist with NT4 they tell you to
dd if=/dev/hda1 of=/bootsect.lnx bs=512 count=1
this is gonna save sector 1 (which I believe is the MBR), to
bootsect.lnx file.
and, from memory,
mcopy bootsect.lnx /dev/fdo
puts it to a DOS floppy for safekeeping. Can use Linux to write it
back if you screw up.
So... if you'd done that when you had a Windows (oops, pardon,
windoze, forgot I was in the Linux newsgroup) partition you could just
write it back from Linux, considering you could boot up from the Linux
diskette. I always do this stuff, but something else always pops up to
bite me in the ass anyway.

Hello all,
I have Redhat 7. I have been updating with new stuff from the Redhat
web when it comes available.
My question is that I'm running the wu-ftp server that comes with
Redhat 7. It is VERY VERY VERY SLOW to connect.
Even from my lan, from a "known" machine meaning it is in hosts I get
the connected message then it takes 20-50 seconds before the login
prompt appears.
How can I make this faster? Or... Is there a better FTP server I
should get?

I am sorry to hear what happened to you, but might I suggest
using a firewall unless you really want to offer nfs to the world.
Also, next time you upgrade or if you're thinking of reinstalling
your system software so you can trust it again, consider using
debian or FreeBSD as you can automatically update all the
software on your system with one or two easy commands
that can be run automatically.

Thank you for your reply.
Perhaps I did not make myself clear. What I wrote down in my previous
message was just one of the many different optimizations I tried,
including -O, -O3, -Os. None of those seem to have any effect. In fact,
no matter what I include, I cannot get any better performance than with
no optimization whatever.
And, again, this only occurs on a Pentium III (Compaq AP200), because,
as I said in my previous message, on a Pentium II I get excellent
performance (and actually, -march=pentium has no ``disastrous'' effect,
in fact it seems to have hardly any effect).
Hope this clarifies things.

If you want it while the login widget is displayed, use the Xsetup

If you want it no matter who is logged in, the first reaction is:
don't. Let the user decide for himself (and run the program if he wants

I have found in the past that the x.0 releases (5.0 & 6.0) were not
ready for release so I decided ride out the 7.0 release and wait for the
7.1 or 7.2 release (VERY Glad I did). I will wait to see if those are
worth the upgrade when they are released. I am guessing that 7.1 will be
better but will wait to see what kind of problems it has and will
probably wait for 7.2 to be released. A couple more "Redmond 7.0"
releases and I will probably be switching too.
One thing I have found is that even though they are not bug free the x.2
versions have been by far the most stable & reliable.

Yes. Do 'apt-get update; apt-get upgrade' (if you are running Debian).

LXQ,
That sounds like a hardware problem to me. First question:
Have you done all of the updates that Redhat has provided for 7? If
not... Do them. On your machine is a thing called RedHat update
agent. Run it and let it install everything. This will get your
system up to the "current" level.
Now about your problem. I have a Dell XPS 266 PII running RH7. It
has been up solid under heavy web use for 62 days now. It will
probably run the rest of the year if I let it. I have even crashed a
few X sessions, killed and restarted a few processes and yet it just
keeps ticking along.
This machine is servicing a very busy web discussion group, servicing
a fair number of mpg downloads, running setiathome, running an Amateur
radio APRSD server (serial TNC packets in, tcp/ip broadcasts out).
So while RH7 has some bugs I don't think it is that unstable. So
things to check:
1) have you done the updates
2) is your system on good power? Filtered surge protecter or better
yet, a small UPS. A fair number of folks will laugh at this one but I
had a system running a robotic workcell that was going down about
every 6 hours. We put it on a UPS with a filter, problem gone. Last
I checked the system had been up solid for 329 days running 24/7.
3) Power down your system and carefully reseat all of your cards.
Video, etc.
4) Try running it for a while after these steps.
5) If the problem is still there and your 256M of memory is in two
dimms, try removing one of the dimms. Run for a while with 128.
6) If the problem is still there try swapping the dimms and run again
for a while with 128 (other dimm).
7) If the problem is still there put both dimms back in. Memory is
not the issue.
8) Try swapping to a different video card. I had a RH6.1 system that
would "freeze" periodically. Same hardware ran perfectly under Win98.
Found that I was using a Matrox Millenium board that RH6.1 didn't
like. Swapped that with something else and it worked perfectly until
I took the system down.
9) Try swapping your network board (if you have one).
10) If all of the above fail, you may have a motherboard that linux
just doesn't like or one that has a problem.
Hope this helps.

What did you do wrong? Have wu-ftp running and rpc.statd running without a
firewall? Don't use them. Use ssh. If you must run rpc.statd. because you
must have nfs, then dedicate a firewall to the task. Don't even need to buy
a computer. If you already have a hub, $120 will buy a nice NAT/firewall
router.

OK, got it sussed:
