System V initialization

Strange, my man page indicates (and I find) it in /var/lib/dhcp.
Perhaps they've changed it.
 

I assume this is from your reading of source code?

My man pages indicate:

_When_ a new lease is acquired, it is appended to the
end of the dhclient.leases file.

_Before_ dhcpd grants a lease to a host, it records the
lease in this file and makes sure that the contents of the file are
flushed to disk.
 

Never compiled it or even looked at the source. All attempts to do
LFS get overtaken with other duties so it's nice to know someone out
there may be carrying through to the end.

I did look at all my init scripts and the only "call" made was to
dhclient -- a binary executable -- which I assume was made from the
ISC source. It uses(?) dhclient-script (which is supplied with the
ISC source?). BTW, this is an old (but freshly updated) box running
RH8. dhcpd has never been loaded but the dhcpd.leases file exits
(empty). ifdown simply kills the running dhclient.

Looking at dhclient-eth0.leases I can see that it was indeed updated
at boot when I acquired a new lease on boot this AM. It doesn't make
good sense (or seem to be good practice) to attempt to write to these
files at shutdown. The needed data has already been saved to disk and
you would run the risk of corruption when overwriting them with
duplicate data at shutdown. The data should be written when the lease
request is acknowledged and given. And you shouldn't have to do this
yourself -- except by way of the startup init script.

Does the source include any init examples? I assume that is why mine
calls dhclient in ifup -- to start dhclient and to force a read of the
lease file and acquire a new lease if needed.

Except for something not right/gone wrong I can't imagine why you are
having to do this. I can understand if you don't have an ifup script
that includes the proper calls to dhclient, etc. but that is about all
you should have to do.

BTW, your dhcp-3.0pl2.tar.gz is dated 01/15/03 while the newest is
dhcp-3.0.1.tar.gz (dated 07/16/04):

Probably you have to modprobe the appropriate SCSI driver.
If you look in /lib/modules/<version>/kernel/drivers/scsi/
you will see what drivers are available on your system.
lspci will tell you what SCSI controller you have.

Newbie Linux Apache setup question

Posted: 17 Sep 2004 11:17 AM PDT

(Note: $ means normal user; # means root)

"$ uname -a" will give you more information, but as for what
distribution.. the company's name should be in various places when you
do maintenance or fool around with some programs, just keep an eye out
(in other words, i don't know exactly where you could check). Do you use
GNOME? Do you have the Bluecurve theme selected for GNOME? that's
probably redhat. "$ rpm -qa | grep apache" if you have the rpm system,
this will query a list and search it for the string 'apache'. If
something appears, you'll see your apache version, etc. (if you see a
'mdk' then you have mandrake linux most likely). To remove apache, type
"# rpm -e apache" - or - to upgrade it with the downloaded rpm: "rpm -U
filename.rpm".

Alex

Newbie Question: Multiple users (server-client) ...

Almost any modern distro can do this.

Yes, via running X-Windows servers on the clients. (X has this odd idea that
the software displaying things on your local machine is a "server", rather
than calling it a "client" like a web browser is a client. Stay aware of
this or you will become confused like the rest of us.)

Fortunately, there are plenty of those available, ranging from a VNC client
(which works well on many platforms, including via Java in a web browser)
but requires a VNC server on the application server, to installing CygWin on
the Windows boxes to provide X servers, etc., etc. But you pay a real
performance penalty running those remotely, and they can be pesky to set up.
You need to spend a lot of time and thought into what you want to support
and how you want to do it.
 

Not unless it's specially licensed, such as running VMware to run Windows
applications, or unless you run out of RAM and CPU to support all the
copies.
 

Oh, yes. You can support any modern mail servers and client login systems
(such as sendmail with IMAP or preferably IMAPS access), or even a webmail
server.

Is the software you're using Linux based, or Windows based? Getting Windows
graphical software to run under Wine is, ummm.... awkward.

mandrake 10 installed OK w/out inserting UN & PW, but now insists

It is not lilo asking you a username/password, it is KDE login screen.
To assign a password to root, do this:

1. When lilo boot selection menu appears, select "failsafe"
2. It will get you into a single user, text oriented console. Issue
"passwd" command there, and set your root password.
3. Reboot and when you logged in KDE as root, go into K (the left-bottom
button with a star on it) -> System -> Configuration -> Configure your
desktop. (You can also run it via "drakconf" in console or X terminal). It
is your all-in-one system management control panel. From within
"drakconf", go to System -> Users nad Groups, and open a user account
there. I usually open an account for my daily use, and another "guest"
account so that I can let a friend or a visitor use my PC without having
to enter them into my private domain.

The "Configure your computer" (drakconf) and "Configure your desktop"
(kcontrol) are two tools that you would use to manage your PC and your
personal preferences (only relevant to your userid), respectively.

Mandrake 10 install - test X server, can't get out of X

It should have shown you a colorful backgroung with a dialog with counter
(12 secs or so) asking you whether it is OK or not. You are then supposed
to click on"Yes" button.

If that was not so, that means your settings for X didn't work. Try to
lower the specs for Monitor. For instance start with setting it to
1024x768 with 60Hz, and seeing that it works OK, increase specs gradually.
