tcpdump

2000-09-25 Thread James Ervin
I have verified that tcpdump will run suid in RH 6.1, but will not run suid in 6.2. This has broken some of applications that I use and has caused some consternation in figuring out the problem. If I take the binary from a 6.1 dist. and copy it over, it will run under 6.2. Any light that can

tcpdump and SUID

2000-09-25 Thread James Ervin
I have a script that needs to work with tcpdump. This worked prior to upgrading from 6.1 to 6.2. Now, even if I set the suid bit on /usr/sbin/tcpdump, is still fails to allow a user to run the script. Take a look: [root@kites /]# ls -al /usr/sbin/tcpdump -rwxr-xr-x1 root root

List problem?

2000-05-19 Thread James Ervin
What is the problem with the list? Seems to have ground to a halt. Any ideas? Do we need to complain to RH? Are they throwing enough OS, Hardware and Bandwidth at the list? -- To unsubscribe: mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe" as the Subject.

The solution to this was the fact that the card was in a shared pci/isa slot. the 2.0.35 kernel had no problem with it. the 2.2.14 kernel did. I moved the card and it worked. At 09:09 AM 4/16/00 +0800, you wrote: > > One of my web servers was a happy SMP 5.1 box with two Intel Etherexpress >

Upgrade to 6.2 breaks Intel Etherexpress Pro on my box

2000-04-15 Thread James Ervin
One of my web servers was a happy SMP 5.1 box with two Intel Etherexpress Pro nics. I upgraded it to 6.2 today and all seemed well with the exception that the network would come up, but the cards would not send or receive packets. They showed up as "up" in ifconfig, but they would eventually
