SCSI Tape Drive
Greetings, I have recently installed a SONY SCSI tape drive onto my linux box. I would like to use the Taper program to back up my hard drive to tape. But I seem to be having a problem with getting the tape drive to work. When I do a cat on /proc/scsi/scsi I get: Attached devices: Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00 Vendor: SONY Model: SDX-300C Rev: 0300 Type: Sequential-AccessANSI SCSI revision: 02 So the OS is "seeing" the hardware. However when I try to tar or write to /dev/st0 I get an error saying device not found. Any insight onto this matter would be very much appreciated. Anthony
Easy Interface for IPFWADM
Greetings, I have a small ipfw set up. While I don't mind doing the work in VI to set the rules, some of the people I work with who will be managing the box want something a little easier to work with, a web based system would be great. Anyway, I don't have perl installed, and probably will not install it, lack of room. I was wondering if anyone out there has seen and/or developed either a shell or java driven script that will allow a normal user to easily add or remove IPFWADM rules via a web interface.

Debian Router???
Greetings, I am building a debian router, however I prefer to use a FLASH ROM card instead of a hard drive. The largest I can afford is a 60 meg card. Can I set up a debian router with all the drivers (three cards two DS3 and one Gigabit), VI as an editor (don't hate me because I like VI ok) and keep it running under 60 megs? Anyway have something like this running? Share the info? Would be appriciated! Thanks. Anthony Landreneau DoD Network Security Administrator Infinity Data Systems New Orleans Louisiana (504)455-8973

Mail Relay for Debian
Greetings, I host several domains and would like to have my DNSs get and hold mail when remote WAN host drop off line. I had been using sendmail, but it has become MUCH to complicated for this task. I am looking for a simple, yet controllable, program that will relay mail for my hosted domains. Thanks, Anthony Landreneau DoD Network Security Administrator Infinity Data Systems New Orleans Louisiana (504)455-8973
Re: Sendmail Relay.
Greetings Thomas, Thanks for the info, I plugged it in and hopefully it will work. Have about 200+ domains that I am hosting and trying to relay mail for.

Sendmail Relay.
Greetings, I am having a problem with the lastest dist of sendmail that is coming with Debian. With my old sendmail.cf I was able to use my DNS's as mail relay host for the several dozen domains that I host for. With the new sendmail.cf all of my domains are getting "550 we do not relay" messages. Anyone had luck working with this?

Installing Compaq Qoftpaq After Linux

SMTP Error
Greetings, After upgrading to the lastest greatest Debian Sendmail my sendmail doesn't work any longer. Using Qpopper is not a problem to retrieve the mail, but when I try to send something out I get an error: The recipient "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" is not acceptable to your SMTP server. The message is not sendable until the recipient has been changed. I am assuming that this is a SPAM feature, but for the life of me I can't find the switch that would let me send this stuff out. And insight to this would be much appreciated. Anthony Landreneau Network Administrator Infinity Data Systems New Orleans Louisiana (504)455-8973

qpopper is dead..
Greetings, Upgraded a few programs on my mailserver, went from inetd to xinetd. qpopper no longer works. Can't seem to open a socket on port 110. It is in the inetd.conf file, it is also listed in the xinetd.conf. Still not working. Any insight would be appreciated.

Hard Drive Question....
Greetings, I know I've seen this addressed before, but for the life of me I can't seems to find it, so I will ask the group. I have several machine, now running DOS 6.2. The system BIOS doesn't support large drives, 540MB is the max. I have several 630-1000MB drives and wish to use them on these machines then boot the machines up with LINUX. What do I set the BIOS to in order to correctly partition the drives with Linux? Thanks in advance. Anthony Landreneau Network Administrator Infinity Data Systems New Orleans Louisiana (504)455-8973

IPFW works a little to well...
Greetings, Looking for a little help with ipfwadm. Got a good machine running 2.0, two nics and the system is passing traffic wonderfully. Now I would like to put in packet filtering. IPFW sounds as though it will fit the bill. The HOWTO regarding IPFW suggests a script, which I have written and is below. The problem, when I execute the script nothing comes in, nothing goes out, the perfect firewall. The bad news is I need some traffic to pass. The network behind the firewall is a subnet of a class B network with 255 addresses. If you have any insight on why I might be running into trouble, or if you have suggestions, I would love to hear from you. #!/bin/sh # Setup IP packet Accounting and Forwarding # # # By Default DENY ALL services first ipfwadm -F -p deny # # Flush all Commands ipfwadm -F -f ipfwadm -I -f ipfwadm -O -f # # Allow email to NCTAMS01 ipfwadm -F -a accept -b -P tcp -S 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65535 -D 111.229.13.13 # Allow email to NS1 Relay host ipfwadm -F -a accept -b -P tcp -S 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65535 -D 111.229.13.2 # Allow email to outside mail severs from NCTAMS01 ipfwadm -F -a accept -b -P tcp -S 111.229.13.13 25 -D 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65535 # Allow email to ouside mail servers from NS1 ipfwadm -F -a accept -b -P tcp -S 111.229.13.2 25 -D 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65535 # Allow DNS traffic to NS1 ipfwadm -F -a accept -b -P udp -S 0.0.0.0/0 53 -D 111.229.13.2 ipfwadm -F -a accept -b -P tcp -S 0.0.0.0/0 53 -D 111.229.13.2 ipfwadm -F -a accept -b -P tcp -S 111.229.232.0/24 82 -D 111.229.13.2 # Allow Web connections to outside Web Servers ipfwadm -F -a accept -b -P tcp -S 111.229.13.0/24 80 -D 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65535 # Allow FTP connection to outside Servers ipfwadm -F -a accept -b -P tcp -S 111.229.13.0/24 20 -D 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65535 ipfwadm -F -a accept -b -P tcp -S 111.229.13.0/24 21 -D 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65535 # Allow Telnet connections to outside Servers ipfwadm -F -a accept -b -P tcp -S 111.229.13.0/24 23 -D 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65535 # Allow NTP time to NS1 ipfwadm -F -a accept -b -P tcp -S 111.229.13.2 123 -D 0.0.0.0/0 1024:65535 Anthony Landreneau Network Administrator Infinity Data Systems New Orleans Louisiana (504)455-8973

Re: tar and the braindead man
Ok Kenneth, I must be missing something here, other than my mind of course. This is the requirment: I have a tape with a tar file on it, lets call it thefile.tar . I need to make two copies of that file, back on two other tapes. So I will have three tapes with three identical copies of this tar file. I got thefile.tar off of the original tape using tar -xv ./thefile.tar -C /usr/thedirectorystore The tar file is now on the hard drive. Now I want to put it back onto tape, gee, simple minded me thought tar -cv ./thefile.tar -C /usr/thedirectorystore and bingo, but that doesn't seems to be happening. Any ideas on how I can complete this task?

Re: tar and the braindead man
Ok, still having a problem. Let me do some more explaining. This was a TAR file from another machine, I needed to make a copy of the tar file in order to distribute the data. THe file was tar'ed with a user and group ID that doesn't exsist on my system. So I am getting these errors: # tar -cvf /dev/rmt/0m /usr/web/1801/tape/stddb981016.tar tar: couldn't get uname for uid 100 tar: couldn't get gname for gid 204 a /usr/web/1801/tape/stddb981016.tar 440280 blocks and it isn't writing anything to tape.

tar and the braindead man
Greetings, Got what I thought was a simple problem. I have a 2GB DAT tape drive, a directory that I want to backup to that tape drive. Seems simple enough, but I can't seem to get it to work. I thought the command was: tar -cvf thetarfile.tar /usr/thedirectory But it isn't working. Now I have created a tar file on the hard drive, and thought it would be just as easy to move the file to tape, but I can't figure that out either. Tried mounting the tape drive and the machine mocks me openly. Any and all help would be apprciated! Anthony.

named-bootconf failure
Greetings, named-bootconf is no longer working on one of my DNS systems. I have two identical systems, both doing DNS with the same software loaded. Last week, the named-bootconf stopped writing the named.conf file on the primary server. The file is empty except for the header, "this file generated by" When run, I noticed that it was not reading the boot.options and boot.zones files. I compared the two systems, and I cannot see a difference between the primary and the secondary. Same perl, same bash, same sh. I even exported the boot.options file to the secondary system and ran named-bootconf and it created the named.conf file. One thing I have noticed is two files have been altered.

Debian on HP 9000

SNMP agent w/Multible Interfaces?
Greetings, I have a situation where I would like to SNMP monitor the IPX traffic on several floors of an office complex. Each floor has it's own collision domain. I could put a DEBIAN PC on each floor and run the systems SNMP agent, which should give me the information I will be looking for. However I was wondering if the SNMP agent that I can use with DEBIAN is capable of monitoring more than one interface in a single machine. It would be MUCH easier to have one DEBIAN box connected to all four domains and have a single SNMP agent report on each interface. Any help, suggestions or comments are welcome in this matter.

sendmail relay against spam on debian
Greetings, I have two Debian boxes that sit on my Network. The network is host to about 100 domains. Along with acting as the DNS for the network, the two boxes also act as MX relay for all of the domains. The problem is someone out there found my boxes and used them to dump spam. Have disabled the relay feature, but this is causing problems for my domain users. I would like to reinstate this feature, but want to limit who these boxes sendmail to. I want to me able to relay mail to all of my domains, but not to relay mail to anyone else. But I do wish to accept mail from the universe, to relay to my domains. I have read the information about configuring sendmail, spam and all that other stuff. I must say that my head is spinning. Has anyone else out there resolved this problem, and would be willing to hold my hand while I institute it on my two debian boxes?

Full Root
My root partition, of 400 megs is full. The partition /usr and that of /var are all on their own partition. I have looked in every directory for a core file, and have scanned for viruses. There is no reason that the root partition should be filled to capacity and I can't seem to find the reason that it is. Fsck, shows the drive as find. Any help in this matter would be much appreciated. Thanks Anthony [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Greetings all you helpful folks, Been ruuning an apache Web Server on a Debian box for about 6 months. Now I need to password protect the whole directory tree of web pages.

Lost the POP in smail.
Greetings, While doing some software upgrades to my debian box I lost the POP3 ability. Tried to reinstall smail, nothing, sendmail, nothing. Eudora will connect to the box, but as it starts to log in it will just hang. Any ideas on what could have happened and were I could look to respovle the situation? I am still getting incoming mail, and the outgoing mail does not seem to be effected in any way, just can't get the mail with an outside reader. All help would be MUCH appreciated.

Need Help mounting CD-ROM's w/NFS
Greetings, I have a few IP based CD towers that I am mounting to a debian box. The mount is going fine, however the sub-directories that the mounts are listing are only available to root. I need to make these sub-directories exportable to another nfs mount, so I need to make the owner nobody. When I try to chown the directory to nobody it tells me that it is read-only and no changes happen. I unmount the CDS then chown the directory without any problems. However, when I remount the CDS it all goes back to root:root. The CDS are being mounted by listing them in fstab. Any ideas would be much appreciated.
