 Hi,

 I am using Redhat Linux 7.0,  installed Java SDK 1.3, Jakarta Tomcat
 3.2.1-1(all using rpm to install), and it work fine for
 http://localhost/examples/jsp/ and http://localhost/examples/servlet/

 But I want to try to use it in other directory like http://localhost/jsp .
What is 'it'? The examples? Some webapps you make? All JSP pages??

to get the examples into /jsp :
cd $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps
(tomcat_home might not be in your path, just cd to the jakarta-tomcat
installation)
mv examples jsp
- restart tomcat...

Subject: Dell 120T DLT-4000 Autoloader w/Robot - Control?
Date: Thu, 1 Mar 2001 03:16:00 -0500

We've got a Dell 120T DLT-4000 autoloader which was purchased with a Dell
Poweredge 2450 dual-Pentium server (very recently) preloaded with RedHat
Linux.  So far, we've found no reliable way to utilize this tape drive.
Dell has not been able to help, either.

The Arkeia software originally selected had the annoying habit of crashing
the server during backup operations.  Hardware was ruled out by Dell tech
support...  so the problem is in the software.  So Arkeia was ditched in
favor of simpler backup methods, since our needs are modest. The unit was
placed in sequential mode, and loaded with tapes for daily backups using
cpio or tar or an fbackup-type program.  However, this necessitates
resetting the sequence (to the beginning) manually every Monday.  Management
wants this automated...

So the one remaining problem is how to control the DLT autoloader...
specifically, how to reset the sequence under software (or command-line
script) control.  Does anyone here know how to do this simply?  Or does
anyone know of a *reliable* and *cheap* backup package that can handle this
DLT autoloader properly?

Our management is annoyed that they've purchased a $6000 tape unit and
cannot utilize it...   and they aren't willing to shell out thousands more
trying to find software to run it...   *sigh*

 I've been fighting for a while now trying to build gcc-2.95.2 on RH6.2,

 Is it the kernel, some libraries in the distro or some mysterious black
 magic?

 AFAIK, it's the motherboard chipset.  Sounds like you've got hardware
 problems to me.  Compiling something large (liek gcc or the kernel) puts a
 lot of strain on memory, and I've had machines with flakey hardware that
 seemed fine until I tried to compile something.  The symptoms of flakey RAM
 or flakey cache are often random Sig-11's during compiles.  You CPU might
 also be overheating -- check the CPU fan and make sure you're not
 over-clocking anything.

Hardware, I know that's what keeps poping up. I am not too convinced of that.
I've tested a different memory stick and had the same problem. Unfortunately I
can't turn of the L2 cache, but I might flash the bios and see if the new
version lets me do that. What keeps me from blasting the harware is that I have
compiled gdb, Motif, and the kernel on this machine with no troubles what so
ever. This is of course enough to at least keep me guessing about the RH6.2
distro.

Thanks for the info.
Robert



 Any help, comments insight are appreciated. Also if there's a good trick
 to get gcc-2.95.2 compiling on RH6.2 I'd like to know. I am pretty close
 on just simply blaming it on RH. After all they must have had a reason
 to stay with gcc-2.91.66 instead of shipping gcc-2.95 with the 6.2

 I had no problems compiling 2.95.2 under 6.0 or 6.1, though I haven't tried
 it under 6.2.

Subject: Audio CD's not playing
Date: Fri, 28 Jul 2000 11:02:16 GMT

I'm having trouble playing audio CD's. The application (tcd in console
, xmms in X) reads the correct number of tracks and the length of the
track, however it will not play them, the time inside the app does not
progress at all and the CD does not spin up.

I can play wavs and mp3s but no audio CD, as the time does not
progress, I'm not getting any error messages in /var/log/messages
either.
Also it's not a audio cable to sound card problem because the CD simply
does spin up. However it works fine (spins up) with data CD's


CD Hardware : HP 9110i (IDE, but using SCSI emulation)
Kernels : 2.2.16; 2.2.17pre13; 2.4.0-test4

/dev/cdrom soft linked to /dev/scd0 (which is correct because I can
mount and read data CD's)


I thought it may have been a SCSI emulation problem but it's the same
with that particular module not loaded.
(/dev/cdrom soft linked to /dev/hdc (which is correct because I can
mount and read data CD's)

I read on the newsgroups that it was a 2.2.16 kernel issue, but I
upgraded to 2.2.17pre13 and got the same result.


Any suggestions welcomed, thank you for your time.

Richard.

  I see things two ways. Soft links create a master / slave situation.
  Hard links create multiple masters in a peer type arrangement.

 There's another place where soft (symbolic) links behave quite differently
 from hard links.  Suppose filename X is hard linked to file /Y/Z.  If you
 mount a new filesystem on top of Y, then the old /Y/Z becomes invisible, but X
 still refers to the old file.
 Now if X is symbolically linked to /Y/Z and you mount a new filesystem on top
 of Y, X refers to the file named Z IN THE NEW FILESYSTEM, not the old one.  In
 this way, you can have a filename that (usefully) refers to different physical
 files depending on what filesystems are mounted on the directory tree.

This, I see, is true, but the need for this is surely very abstract... I
am wracking my brains for a useful purpose for this, and all I can think
of is something like warm standby's, or perhaps multiple
configurations...

But, for each conceivable alternative use I can think of, I can think of
a better "normal" solution.

 I must have tried every permutation of -X and --exclude options, but
 the subdirectory always gets included.

When you use the "-X" switch you need to specify a file that
contains the names of the directories/files you wish to
exclude.  Eg, to back up your home directory while excluding
~/Office51 and its subdirectories, create a file calles
"~/exclude.file" with the line:

~/Office51/*

and try:

tar cvfX /tmp/test.archive ~/exclude.file ~/

First off, I notice you have a Freeserve email address.  If it's
Freeserve that you're trying to hook up to, then a rummage back through
the last couple of months in freeserve.help.unix and uk.comp.os.linux,
will reveal that many others have been reduced to tears by their inability
to get any kind of sensible connection to Freeserve (although most of the
problems seemed to resolve themselves about a fortnight ago).  Also, I
understand the PCPlus scripts use scripted authentication, but Freeserve
apparently support CHAP only.

:I have bought 2 books and

:BTW I have read the man pages and it still wont work

If you haven't already found it, can I suggest Bill Unruh's "How to hook
up PPP" (at http://axion.physics.ubc.ca/ppp-linux.html) which is a good
step-by-step approach to building up a set of working scripts.

And, if you think the problem is at Freeserve's end, there are other free 
ISPs in the UK.

Good luck.

Date: Wed, 19 May 1999 00:13:56 GMT


PIKT, Problem Informant/Killer Tool, version 1.4.0

HIGHLIGHTS: introduced a new config file, files.cfg, for managing
any system (text) file (e.g., /etc/inetd.conf, /etc/syslog.conf,
/etc/sudoers); much improved security via user-configurable
service access parameters and server-client callback; dozens of new
validation self-tests; bug fixes

"This is by far one of the most interesting/powerful tools I have
seen for Linux administration... an extremely interesting tool."
--Kurt Seifried, Linux Administrators Security Guide
  (https://www.seifried.org/lasg)

PIKT is an innovative new paradigm for administering heterogeneous networked
workstations.  PIKT monitors systems, reports problems, and fixes those
problems automatically whenever possible.

PIKT uses an embedded scripting language that sports an especially clean
syntax and introduces unique features to make your programming easier.

PIKT is also a sophisticated script preprocessor and control mechanism for
managing all of your administrative scripts.  You can, setting aside the PIKT
language, even use it to version control, install, error log, and schedule
programs written in other languages, as well as to employ macros, meta-
comments, and C-like #if, #ifdef, and #include directives in Perl, AWK, etc.
