Colin,

Yep, that's what I thought.  I tried the dos2unix command and it worked
great.

But, what about the other problem of bash saying it can't find the
appsrvr file?  Here's the output of the command: file appsrvr:

appsrvr: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1, dynamically
linked (uses shared libs), stripped

So, it's an executable but for some reason bash says it can't find it,
even if I do ./appsrvr (when I'm in the same directory, of course).  
Any ideas?

Subject: How to configure firewall/ routing policy in Red Hat 7.1?
Date: Thu, 07 Jun 2001 23:08:41 +0800

Hello,
        I used to setup my RedHat 6.2 to share my internet access for a few 
machine. Now I upgraded to RedHat 7.1 and it seems that there are many 
things new. First, the RedHat installation asked me to choose 
High/Medium/No firewall setup. Now I run /sbin/setup and it shows that I 
have chosen "High" level firewall. Well! I change it to medium, no or 
customize, and it won't save my setting. I find my machine still deny 
all in-coming request (ping or ssh, etc. from another machine). And when 
I run /sbin/setup again, it show "High" again.

        What configuration file can I touch to set the config myself? I found the 
/etc/sysconfig/ipchains to be suspect. But don't know how to manage it. 
(I tried to change the reject to accept, then the whole file disappeared 
after reboot.)


        Can someone provide some links on the firewall/routing setting on RedHat 7.1?

        Thanks a lot!

        Yours,
        Raymond

Can I just format the 3gb HD and copy the linux files over? If i do this how

I don't know but you might have some luck if you post the same message to
comp.windows.x . scince i belive its X that handles the mouse while in X and
the console mouse server handles the mouse while in the console (then again
i could be wrong)

Hope you get your problem fixed,

You need to step down a bit:

cd /cdrom/install/linux
./runInstaller

Also, be warned that Oracle is *very* picky about what kernel and C
library you have installed.  You'd best visit Technet at oracle.com
(click on the 'Discussions' link) for better help.

I had the same problem with RedHat 6.2 it turned out that I was low on free
space on my file system (type df in the console to see how much free space
you have). Try deleting unnessicary files in /tmp or delete core dumps (core
dumps can take alot of space). Hope this helps.

Byron,

Thanks for your input.  I do have a question.
Why is raid/caching pretty pointless if we're
only going to use two drives?

For our application, we cannot afford to lose
data, and we cannot afford to be down for long
if a disk crashes.  I thought RAID 1, using only
2 disks, would be what we need to do.
What would u recommend?

If you have a 25pin serial port on a flying lead you can attach this
directly to the modem in an emergency.

A modem cable is straight through, not crossed over like a NULL-MODEM
cable
The LINUX RS232 howto describes how to make cables if you can have the
parts and tools but it is cheaper to buy ready made cables these days.

Many on-line suppliers will ship worldwide if you have no computer
stores nearby.

I too have a Logitech 3-button serial mouse model M-MD15L
I have identical problems in XFree86 3.3.36 with
kernal 2.216 (from Mandrake 7.1)
I have tried Logitech, Microsoft and Mouseman settings, with Microsoft
working best(!) i.e. as above.

I think this is right,I have problems with my console mouse too
I have gpm enabled (not sure how to disable/reenable it)
bootup says USB mouse tested [OK] although nothing is connected.
I had an Aiptek tablet in the USB when i installed Linux though
I suppose this will never work as a console mouse :(

can't think of anything else :(

I'm going to ask the X question on comp.os.linux.x too

One way to do this would be to use disk imaging software such as Norton
Ghost to copy the linux partitions, then use lilo to set up the boot
partition.  I don't recall the exact sequence of commands, but basically
you should be able to install lilo and setup your linux partition as
bootable.

Mount your install CD #1 and read the RELEASE-NOTES, then take the actions 
recommended there.  You just _may_ get it to install correctly.  I had to 
remove Windows (!!!!) and install RedHat-6.2 to do the Oracle install.  You 
are going to need a 2GB partition for Oracle.  It is installed here on /u01:

Filesystem           1k-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda6               605636    101416    504220  17% /

/dev/hda9              2661956   2315060    346896  87% /usr
/dev/hda10             1609700    323556   1286144  21% /usr/local
/dev/hda8               260240     64760    195480  25% /var
/dev/hdc                656756    656756         0 100% /mnt/cdrom

The version of Oracle is 8.1.7.1.0.  Running Oracle from RedHat-7.1 and 
Mandrake-8.0 works after the install.  But I still haven't put Windoze back 
onto /dev/hda1 :-)

You should be able to use the XFree86-3.3.6 version of XF86_SVGA with that 
POS graphics adapter.  It works but not very well.  Also check out 
www.xfree86.org WRT possible support for the chip in XFree86-4.0.3 and 4.1.

upgrade to a newer distro.  if you still have most of the default
packages from that 5.2 install, its probably riddled with holes.  also
make sure that things like named, lpd, sendmail, rpc, etc are running. 
make sure apache and mysql are running as non-root users so if some
buffer overrun occurs, a root shell is not presented.

Subject: Re: radius server

what type of remote access equipment are you using?  I would recommend
the cistron radius server.  its available as an rpm for redhat and
suse.  do a search on freshmeat for it.  once installed, there are a few
configs you have to setup and then configure your remote access
equipment accordingly.  I have done this numerous times, so if you need
help, let me know.
