ARG!! Where to get the #*($# glibc patch for Oracle

2001-11-19 Thread RedHat List


Does anyone know a 3rd party site that has the glibc patch for Oracle 8.0.5

I am at the point where I will pay money for it. You cannot get it from
Oracle anymore, apparently.


I desperately need to get 8.0.5 installed on to a RH 7.2 machine.

I can find one for 8.0.6 which does not work. I can find the patch
for 8.1.7 which does not work.


I appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Anyone get System Imager to work with Red Hat 7.2?

2001-12-26 Thread RedHat List


After roadbloack after roadbloack we are now stuck trygin to boot
a client machine with the image diskette.

Just curious, has anyone managed to get System Imager working with
RH 7.2? 

The documentation is pathetic and many things that they say will work
do not.

As a sidenote, does anyone know of any other utilities that assist in
building out large clusters?

Anyone get Symantec Ghost to work with RH systems?

2001-12-28 Thread RedHat List


We have created an image using a ghost boot disk and a multicast
server, but we have yet to get a client to load an image from
the multicast server. After overcoming many problems, we have
come to one we cannot work around. We get about 90% complete on
a client and the we get Ghost error 36000. We tried the workarounds
the Symantec support site suggests and still no luck.


The image was taken from a RH 7.2 system with this partition scheme:

1: /boot 50MB
2: / 9G
3: swap  1G

The Ghost update screen displays the 3 partitions correct and the drive
geometry is recognized correctly by Ghost. (1245 cylinders)

I am up against a deadline to get a large cluster online so any help
will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Chuck

Kickstart merely does an NFS install (unless it has changed) and might as well
use System Imager in that case. We are also using a custom kernel with our
custom clustering code. We need a utility that will work at the sector level
of the disk. Ghost does this but we have run into problem after problem. We are
trying their very latest version, 7.5 released Dec 15 right now as I write this.

(as a sidenote, our Windows group is having problems getting Ghost to work with
simple single partition Windows systems)

Anyone other suggestions would be great.

I guess we can try 6.5. Each rack in our cluster used an Extreme Summit48
switch, 100MB, and all NIC's are Intel EEPro 100's. 

Do you use any special options when using 6.5? Is LILO installed in the 
MBR on your systems? What method do you use to create your image? (Image All, 
Image Disk, etc...)

2001-12-28 Thread RedHat List


Yea, we already thought of that. However, the disks in this cluster are
front-panel removeable, however they are not back-plan connected thus require the
top of each system to be opened. These are 9-foot racks and very difficult
to work with. FYI: Don't ever buy a cluster from Western Scientific, it is
the biggest piece of crap I have ever seen. Extremelly poor physical design.

The rescue disk option is doable, what exactly do you do with the rescue
floppy?

ARG! Serial console woes

2001-12-28 Thread RedHat List

Hey all,

We added serial console support to some RH 7.2 system and now they 
hang at the infamous "Freeing unused kernel memory"

I noticed scads of posts on Google with this same problem but have yet
to find any posted fix.

I added this to /etc/lilo.conf near the top before the first kernel stanza:

serial=0,9600n8

And under each kernel stanza I added the following: (specifically the line
right after the line "initrd=")
append="console=tty0 console=ttyS0,9600n8"

(ran lilo at this point)

In /etc/inittab I added the following:

S0:2345:respawn:/sbin/agetty 9600 ttyS0


I know w/o a doubt this has worked in the past, and I currently
have SuSE 7.2 machines with the same config working. (I can even 
get into the BIOS remotely)

We are using kernel 2.4.13 (patched with MOSIX clustering code). This kernel IS
compiled with serial console support.

Just anyone have any ideas? I desperately need serial console support
on these nodes.

Here is the kicker: If I remove ONLY the "append=" line from /etc/lilo.conf,
this system does not hang. Why does the kernel not like this parameter???

My thoughts are leaning towards a bug with this kernel.

Thanks much,
Chuck

This is the way I have been doing it for 7 years. (since whenever the first
serial-console kernel came out) This is the first time I have seen this happen.
However, I mainly use SuSE when I need to support systems located in colo
facilities. I am a 3 hour drive from our colo in El Segundo. I do not know 100%
if I have ever had this working on RH 7.2. I am pretty sure I have had this working on
RH 7.1 and defintely 6.2.
 
I think the kernel requires the tty0 console, the second entry is telling it
to also configure a console on serial0.

  Is S0 a valid entry here? I tried this with plain numbers only.

I will try other things but as far as I know, this first field is irrelevant as long 
as it is
unique in the inittab file.


You need a motherboard that supports console redirection, Ex. Intel 440GX,
some Super Micros, and some other Intel boards. You can see the BIOS regardless
of the OS since this happens before control is passed to anything residing on the
local media.

Yes, the *etty I use in /etc/inittab appears not to affect the problem, the
existence of the append="console" entry in /etc/lilo.conf is causing the hang.
(I can manually start agetty on ttyS0 after the machine has booted, however,
the kernel has not configured a console on that port since the append="console..."
line is commented out.

Remote Syslog woes

2002-01-01 Thread RedHat List


We are using a single box in a RH 7.2 cluster for syslog. I have all 
machines logging to this machine correctly, but one problem.

The syslog messages are showing up as follows:
Jan  1 13:28:20 node-2 nfslock: rpc.statd shutdown succeeded 
Jan  1 13:28:20 node-2 nfslock: rpc.statd shutdown succeeded 
Jan  1 13:28:21 node-2 portmap: portmap shutdown succeeded 

This problem is that we have 6 racks and each rack has a node-2. We have no
way of knowing which node-2 logged the message.
The FQDN would be node-2.rack1.mydomain.com

(some @#@*-4-brains VAR did the initial config and now it would be too much work
to change)

Why is syslog not logging the FQDN which is supposed to by default?
(You have to strip otherwise with -s)

nsswitch.conf is set to resolve hosts only from files.

I can configure syslogd to log only IP addresses but this is undesireable.

Does anyone have any tricks I can try???


Thanks,
Chuck

some reason :(

Shouldn't BRU have been installed by default?

installing BRU when not done during RH install

1998-05-15 Thread RedHat List

Hi guys,

Bascially I figured out that when my system was installed (my friend did
it), he did not choose to install BRU initially.

Now how do I install it after the fact?

Are there normal RPM's on the CD? 

Any hints?

Thanks
Ricardo

Hi everyone,

I'm helping setup sendmail for a friend and have stumbled onto something
strange. I set up sendmail to prevent relay, and verified it doesnt accept
relaying.

However there are messages going out which are mysterious and I simply
don't know how it's being done and from where. Look at the maillog:

You're saying two different things here. If the cdrom is connected as the
slave device on ide1, it's /dev/hdb. If it's the "secondary slave", that 
infers it's the slave on ide2, which would be /dev/hdd.

Try mounting it as /dev/hdb.

HTH.

try this:
edit /etc/pam.d/passwd and comment the line:
password   required /lib/security/pam_cracklib.so retry=3
I've never tryed this, so it's an "experiment".

  Oh, and while I'm at it is it possible to set

Do you have shadow on ?
if yes, you can do this by editing some fields in /etc/shadow
man shadow for more details.

 Also is it possible to keep a
