[ilugd] Xorg standby is not working

[ilugd] OS clock problem
Hi, I also have this problem previously, but now it solved. You can explicitly set hardware time (RTC) using hwclock utility in Linux. See its man page. And make sure before setting hardware clock time, your timezone is correct. Anyways If u r on SELinux enabled system, don't delete any timezone related system files, otherwise you've to recreate those files and have to restore their security context. If u have such problem, then u can restore security contexts using restorecon utility. BTW, I've tried Ubuntu 5.10 and it is not SELinux enabled.

[ilugd] TFTP boot across firewall
Hi, assuming that the server sits inside the firewall and the client PC is outside, you just have to open the udp port 69 for the client pc. since you are not blocking any outbound ports (as is the normal case), you should not have any probs. But you might also want to consider the following: - a) what after tftp? b) you might have to allow dhcp requests inside your firewall (which is a big NO-NO) c) All other protocols like XDCMP etc I don't want to access server outside my LAN. And yes I've opened DHCP (or BOOTP) for my LAN. I also opened sunrpc port, NFS, XDMCP, mountd, statd ports also. I want to boot my thin client. So reason 4 setting up firewall is to define tightly (or tightly bound) what actually I needed. My thin clients are booting fine with firewall except I've to open all UDP ports (for TFTP). What I was looking for is some TFTP server which allows me to restricts its ports range so I can tightly define that I only wants this port range to be open.

[ilugd] Setting up Hardware SATA RAID on Server
Hi, Thanx for the suggestion. I've already gone through all those stuff. And finally configured RAID on my server. The UbuntuLinux version 5.10 (I'm using) is a slight buggy esp. the partitioning utilities like parted (debian menu based). So I'm unable to create partitions as I expected. I want to create: /dev/sda1 -- raid volume /dev/sdb1 -- raid volume /dev/md0 -- raid array [ /dev/sda1, /dev/sdb1 ] /dev/md0p0 - / partition /dev/md0p1 - /home partition /dev/md0p2 - swap partition But due to bug in the utility (I've checked dmesg, and it says the program is sending deprecated IOCTL to kernel in order to inform kernel to reprobe partitions). So I've to do: /dev/sda1 -- raid volume /dev/sdb1 -- raid volume /dev/md0 -- raid array [ /dev/sda1, /dev/sdb1 ] Over MD0 array I've to create an LVM Volume Group and that volume group contains my rest of the partitions as LVM Volumes. And then too, LILO is not installed. But now, everything is OK. Anyways, some queries related to RAID on Linux: How to add more /dev/md??? devices to the /dev tree ? I mean what major and minor numbers have to be passed to mknod or do I've to pass any parameter to md module. Well thanx for replying Ashish Shukla alias Wah Java !!
