You can use minicom for this as: setserial /dev/ttyXX port uart irq minicom -s Port, UART & Irq are the corresponding values for the specified device. In minicom select 'Serial Port Setup' & set the Serial Device as /dev/ttyXX (whatever is the device). Also set the Baudrate correctly. Now save the values & press Alt-M (or Ctrl-M) to initialise the modem. See whether you are getting OK for the AT commands you type. Ensure that the Modem is connected to the correct port & is switched on. In the above way, you can try to eliminate which ports are not working. BTW, is the problem occurring for all ports or only some specific ports ? I don't think that answers your question. But you can check the ports individually.

OOPS. nope !! bash (Bourne Again SHell) is a shell, which provides an interface for performing many tasks in a UNIX system. A shell is basically a command language interpretter, which reads your input, executes the commands & provides the output. doskey is a program to keep track of the commands you type, so that you can recall the commands (thro' up & down arrow keys). bash can provide this functionality too, but that's simply a sub-set of the large functionality provided by bash. Explaining bash is beyond the scope here. I suggest you read 'man bash' or get a good 'introduction to unix/linux' book !

Use gcc to compile it. I strongly suggest that you pick up a good book so that you don't have to ask basic questions like this on the list.

Even bash has a bunch of inbuilt commands. Many frequently used commands (echo, kill, test, umask etc.) are also bash builtins. To get a list, type 'help' at the bash prompt. But of course, bash is much more advanced that COMMAND.COM or any other command interpreter in Windows. In fact, I'd say there is no comparison at all. The real flame war should be between bash and csh fans.

I don't like vi editing of csh commands. It's too painful when it's not what you see but something altogether different. Something that often happens with telnet sessions and you execute something you don't mean to. Too bad. Bash is simple enough... Where is my petrol can?

As far as I remember, xf86config confirmation sequence was tricky when I first used it. I think even after you selected it your card it asks you to reconfirm or something where you may enter a wrong choice. Try running xf86config again and note down your choices as you go. As the card shows up in the list it should not cause much of a problem. Also remember to check the monitor parameters... A quick fix is set the whole thing as generic SVGA :-).

This is something I was putting of for a long time due to lack of time but now that I have started, I can't do anything else until I finish :( So please help before I spend too much more time on this. Now although I had everything working fine in less than an hour, ie. mutt, sendmail, fetchmail, I am not happy with one thing. My problem is as follows: When I give /usr/sbin/sendmail -q -v, everything is fine until I get the foll messages: MAIL From: 501 ... Sender domain must exist *any destination email id* ... Data format error The mail is not sent and I get an error message at the email id I had set in the From header in mutt. However, seeing headers from other's mails, I see that user@localhost is accepted. How is this? > Just configure sendmail _NOT_ to lookup DNS when you are using a smarthost, but Is this happening because of some sort of reverse DNS lookup? (I had run the pcqupdt script (June CD - RH6.2) which sets up DNS.) > If this stuff below sounds painful (it isn't too painful actually with sendmail > 8.9.x) then just install the script found at http://cork.linux.ie and use it to > configure your sendmail. > I have downloaded the script, but I don't want to use it 'coz I want to know what's actually wrong. Now for what I have already done/tried: I have enabled smart host relaying. I have tried -f option with my email id .. same error. I also spent considerable time trying out numerous other things but none acheived what I was looking for. Right now what I have done is that I have put defined $j as: Djgoatelecom.com in sendmail.cf. Now although this works, while sending, sendmail says : From ... Sender ok ( or verified ...) The mail is sent and received with correct From and Reply-To headers as set in .muttrc But, I want it to be correct ie. pgaurav instead of gaurav. (Else user@localhost.) Now I am sure one way would be to create a login pgaurav, but I also want to send mail from other ids. For this, why -f option is not working? > > Also, starting with 8.9, it may help to include the following in your .mc file: > > FEATURE(`accept_unresolvable_domains')dnl > FEATURE(`accept_unqualified_senders')dnl > Will ^^^^^ do the trick?

Are there any better nameservers I might use? Also should there be a "search" or "domain" for home m/c? If yes, what? Now although this is OT for this topic: How to "dedigestify" LI[HP] digests in mutt? One other mail client I was reading about (can't remember which one) had an option dedigestify to split up mails in a digest. Is there any similar option in mutt? Alternately, if procmail must be used, can someone please give me the appropriate procmail recipe (and tell me where it goes, haven't read up on procmail yet) as well as the mailboxes and any hooks that may have to be added to .muttrc (Phew) Sorry 'bout the looong mail Hoping for help soon (so I can get back to Tanenbaum, Aho and Ullman and the rest ;) -Gaurav From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Fri Dec 1 23:56:50 2000 Received: from srishti.cgl.co.in (unknown [202.54.16.161]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 05F754A015 for ; Fri, 1 Dec 2000 23:56:27 -0800 (PST) Received: from neeraj ([192.168.7.14]) by srishti.cgl.co.in (Netscape Mail Server v2.02) with SMTP id AAA8394 for ; Sat, 2 Dec 2000 09:05:51 -0500 Message-ID: <001201c05c11$0b81f6c0$0e07a8c0@cgl.co.in> From: "Neeraj Manral" To: Subject: no mails again Date: Sat, 2 Dec 2000 09:06:23 +0530 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2014.211 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2014.211 X-Archive-Number: 200012/45 Hi , Is the list working .I have suddenly stopped recieving mails since 1 dec 2000 afternoon?

If you download the imwheel.rpm from rpmfind all the hack for netscape is already included in /etc/imwheelrc file. Wheel works fine with WMaker+kfm+kpanel. Also works in icewm. However the cut and paste with emulate3buttons is not working. If I hightlight the text and press both left & right mouse buttons the contents are not pasted.

By removing prompt in lilo.conf you are only disabling the boot time option of starting linux in a desired mode and hence you will always boot in the default run level (which is not a very good idea if you were to have more than 1 kernel compiled on your system. If you really want to make your lilo secure, you can make use of the restricted directive. In /etc/lilo.conf add after install=/boot/boot.b password= [ type your password without the angle brackets] and also add as last line of lilo.conf restricted Now test your LILO by #lilo -v -t If this is the way you want, recompile lilo.conf by #lilo Reboot A password would not be required for a normal boot but if you pass a parameter then you would be prompted for a password. Please note, the /etc/lilo.conf will have the password in plain text. For security reasons you may like to remove the line password= after running #lilo Please take extreme caution if you are doing this. If you recompile lilo.conf after this, you will never have access. line from lilo.conf Under any circumstances do not run lilo from the prompt if you have removed the password= line Regards, -- Sunil Dhaka in search of Linux enlightenment From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Sun Dec 3 04:15:20 2000 Received: from localhost.localdomain (unknown [202.9.147.102]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id CF03F4A02E for ; Sun, 3 Dec 2000 04:15:00 -0800 (PST) Received: from localhost.localdomain (IDENT:ashwind@localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1]) by localhost.localdomain (8.11.0/8.8.7) with SMTP id eB3CDsA01238 for ; Sun, 3 Dec 2000 17:43:54 +0530 From: Ashwin D Organization: Deloitte Haskins & Sells Date: Sun, 3 Dec 2000 17:43:53 +0530 X-Mailer: KMail [version 1.1.99] Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: Hotmail MIME-Version: 1.0 Message-Id: <00120317435300.01208@localhost.localdomain> Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-Archive-Number: 200012/82 Hi I seem to have this problem for the last one week.

First see whether you have IPX available already by typing the commands: dmesg | grep ipx -i If the above command shows an output something similar to "NET4: Linux IPX 0.38 for NET4.0 IPX Portions Copyright (c) 1995 Caldera, Inc." then you have ipx built-in to the kernel. If you don't get the above output, then try: modprobe ipx; dmesg | grep ipx -i Now you should get the above output. With all the above commands you could not get the mentioned output, then you don't have IPX support enabled. So do the following to get IPX support: * cd /usr/src/linux/ * make menuconfig * Select 'Networking Options' * Select the option 'The IPX Protocol' (ie. highlight the option) & press Y * Now select 'Exit' & again 'Exit' & when you're asked 'Save Kernel Config. ?', select 'Yes'. * Now you should be back to the prompt. Compile the Kernel with the following commands. * make dep && make clean && make bzlilo * make modules && make modules_install * Now if the compilation went off smoothly, restart the system & repeat the commands (dmesg|grep ipx -i) to see whether IPX support is now available. Next is to get the necessary tools to access the Novell Server. You can get ncpfs tools from: ftp.gwdg.de:/pub/linux/misc/ncpfs or sunsite.unc.edu:/pub/Linux/system/Filesystems/ncpfs or platan.vc.cvut.cz:/pub/linux/ncpfs * Now install ncpfs & go through the documentation (man slist, man ncpmount, man nprint). There are tools available to list servers, mount volumes, print to Netware Printer & many more. (Let me know whether you're able to install ncpfs from sources. I had a lot of problems getting it compiled & had to hack a few files.) Note: If what you want is simply to login to Novell from Linux, then I'd suggest you use dosemu (www.dosemu.org). (I guess you're's is an experimental machine. Don't do recompilation or such things on a commercial server w/o assistance !!!) Happy netwaring !

Has anyone in this list done this before ? (When I specify protocol as SPX, I'm getting a 'protocol adpater not found' error. & no, there's no option to install SPX during Oracle install on Linux ;() I don't think SPX is well supported under Linux (2.2.16 says it's experimental !) & I dunno whether Oracle supports SPX on Linux (the oracle doc. says supported protocols are 'TCP/IP, BEQ, & IPC ...' No mention of SPX !) Now'd like to know the following: 1. Is there an sqlplus available for DOS (Now Windoze !) using which I can connect to Novell Oracle Server over SPX ? 2. Has any1 connected their Linux/BSD box to an Oracle Server running on Novell over SPX ? Thanx in advance. Sreeji __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

So you can determine whether to fire netscape or not..... Yes - that is true. Most of the time I don't need netscape. The one thing konqueror lacks is support for proxy servers for https: URLs. It is maddening to fire up netscape for just two web sites (hotmail and fabmart). But all in all, I find konqueror to be the best in business today - after trying netscape, mozilla and opera in that order, I have finally settled on konqueror. Good interface - I really like the 'split window' feature, something none of the other browsers have. And it supports netscape plugins - nice (Even though some sites - bbc.co.uk - decide that you cannot view flash based on the User-Agent header - have to keep those words 'Mozilla Compatible' in the header :-).

There should be a modem howto, but here goes... If it is an external modem, it connects to one of the serial ports that you have at the back of your computer. There are usually two serial ports, and one of them will be taken up by your mouse if you have a serial mouse. Just plug the serial cable to the serial port in which it fits. Plug the other end in the modem. Plug the telephone line into the 'line' socket of the modem, and optionally attach a telephone instrument to the 'phone' socket of the modem. Plug in the power cable. Make sure all connections are securely attached. You are ready to go! Login as root and run the command wvdialconf /etc/wvdial.conf and watch wvdial detect your modem. It usually detects almost every serial modem that I have seen (gvc, lanbit, d-link etc.). Edit the wvdial.conf file thus generated, insert your ISP login id and password, and run the command wvdial and you are connected to the net! This should get you started. Any problems, get back here with a detailed description.

SuSE 6.4 was working perfectly previously with XF86_SVGA. The old XF86Config is not helping much. XFCom_SiS is giving a patchet mouse cursor. Does anyone know what modeline to use (Can I copy the old modes to the new file (which does not show any interlaced modes))? The SiS530 is onboard. SuSE7.0/XF4.0 installs with no problems on RivaTNT2/Gateway17''. On Toshiba satellite notebook I had to use XF3.x but it's fantastic (I still don't know the graphics chipset).

At the height of the Intifada, the Microsoft Windoze and Linux community realized that, if they continued, they would someday end up destroying the world. So they sat down and decided to settle the whole dispute with a dogfight. The negotiators agreed that each would take five years to develop the best fighting dog they could. The dog that won the fight would earn it self right to rule the world. The losing side would have to lay down its arms. Microsoft found the biggest, meanest Dobermans and Rottweilers in the world. They bred them together and then crossed their offspring with the meanest Siberian wolves. They selected only the biggest, strongest puppy from each litter, killed all the other puppies and fed the lone dog all of the milk. They used steroids and trainers in their quest for the perfect killing machine, until, after the five years were up, they had a dog that needed iron prison bars on his cage. Only the trainers could handle this beast... When the day of the big fight arrived, Linux community showed up with a strange animal: It was a nine-foot-long Dachshund. Everyone felt sorry for the Linux users . No one else thought this weird animal stood a chance against the growling beast in the Microsoft camp. The bookies predicted the Windoze would win in less than a minute. The cages were opened! The Dachshund waddled toward the center of the ring. The Windoze dog leapt from his cage and charged the giant wiener-dog. As he got to within an inch of the Linux dog, the Dachshund opened its jaws and swallowed the windoze beast in one bite. There was nothing left but a small bit of fur from the killer dog's tail... The Ms windoze approached the Linux users , shaking their heads in disbelief. "We do not understand. Our top scientists and breeders worked for five years with the meanest, biggest Dobermans and Rottweilers. They developed a killing machine." "Really?" the Linux users replied. "We had our top plastic surgeons working for five years to make an alligator look like a Dachshund!"

I second what Suresh said, but if u dont want to start your linux experience with hassles - go for either Redhat 7 or Mandrake 7.2 which support this "mumma bo" out of the box. The easiest thing to do - if you can - is to get hold of kernel 2.2.16 or 2.2.17 and install it. One of the earlier pcquest (think Oct 2k) had it on the cd and a howto in the magazine.

Any idea what this is? In addition, could anyone give me some suggestions as to what Linux version could fit on a 486, 240MB hard disk. I know this is small, but plan to use it just for keying in articles and maybe picking up e-mail while on the road. Would it be advisable to avoid x-windows? My requirements are basically (i) word processing, non-graphical is fine (ii) e-mailing, somewhat heavy duty and (iii) if possible, a little downloading of digital photos from a Kodak280 camera (s/w comes only for Win/Mac). Could Linux offer solutions for this?

During the install process, the network card is identified properly, the network details (IP, hostname, netmask, default router etc) are entered properly, the ftp connection to the server is actually made (can be seen from the logs on the server), the retrieval of the second stage loader is proper (from messages on screen), but while loading the install fails...

There have been 2 basic problems with the version of mj2 running on lists.linux-india.org: 1. Some runaway mj2 processes take up all memory and the box has to be rebooted. This happens about once a month. 2. Some posts with incorrect headers clogging up the mj2 post queue. This happens rarely. I will be upgrading the box to the latest version of mj2 which supposedly solves at least '1'.

I'm supposed to check whether the WAN port of that router is up or not. For doing that right now I'm pinging (ping -c 3 myrouter) to that machine and verifying (I've written one perl script which pings the link and according to the exit status it drops a mail to my account). Some times what happens is , ping won't be able to reach the router , even though the router is up and returns a fail exit status. B'coz of that I'm getting mails which doesn't make any sense as the router is really UP. Is there any other method other than ping to check whether the router is up or not so that I can use it in my script ?

I also looked into /proc/sound and i see no sound card configured.

Date: Fri, 1 Dec 2000 16:52:00 -0500 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat, Inc. Security Advisory Synopsis: Updated PAM packages available. Advisory ID: RHSA-2000:120-04 Issue date: 2000-11-29 Updated on: 2000-12-01 Product: Red Hat Linux Keywords: PAM Cross references: N/A --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: Updated PAM packages are now available for Red Hat Linux 6.x and 7. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 6.0 - i386, alpha, sparc Red Hat Linux 6.1 - i386, alpha, sparc Red Hat Linux 6.2 - i386, alpha, sparc Red Hat Linux 6.2EE - i386, alpha, sparc Red Hat Linux 7.0 - i386, alpha Red Hat Linux 7.0J - i386, alpha 3. Problem description: Red Hat Linux 7 and a previous PAM errata issued for Red Hat Linux 6.x both included a new module, pam_localuser. Although this module is not used in any default configurations, the version included was vulnerable to a buffer overflow. These updates remove this vulnerability and fix various other bugs. 4. Solution: For each RPM for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Fvh [filename] where filename is the name of the RPM. 5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info): 14740 - pam_cracklib: 'similiar()' broken 16456 - files missing from pam-0.72-20 18055 - Passwords can't be changed 20542 - PAM doesn't set RLIMIT_LOCKS when compiled against glibc-2.2 headers 21467 - /etc/security/access.conf error in example 6.

All files accessible in a Unix system are arranged in one big tree, the file hierarchy, rooted at /. These files can be spread out over several devices. The mount command serves to attach the file system found on some device to the big file tree. Conversely, the umount(8) command will detach it again.

Umm..I am not sure, but does clicking on halt/reboot log you off and take you to the gdm/kdm/xdm login screen or does it just ask you for a password?

Do 'rpm -qa | grep wvdial' to confirm.... Wvdial rpms must have been on the CD. Install them. BTW, I find lot of people saying RHL 6 (or anything else) doesn't have this and that. RHL or linux is different from all these programs. You need to check out the programs installed. Linux is different from such programs.... Bye Shridhar jay wrote: > Doesn't this work with RH 6.0 ?

I have a machine with a DLINK 538DX ethernet NIC dual booting windows and Linux (Redhat 6.2). The card uses the rtl8139.o module. (This is what it uses on the other machines in my network) The card has been assigned an IP of a.b.c.d The /etc/hosts file is empty. The network starts properly, showing eth0 coming up. [root@machine]#ifconfig lo Link encap:Local Loopback This is the only interface shown. [root@machine]# ping a.b.c.d [root@machine]#/etc/rc.d/init.d/network stop [root@machine]#ping 127.0.0.1 [root@machine]#ping a.b.c.d [root@machine]#ifconfig eth0 down [root@machine]#ping a.b.c.d [root@machine]#ifconfig eth0 a.b.c.d The resource is temporarily unavailable. My question is why this wierd behaviour? I can ping the local ip, but cannot access the network. If the card is not detected, then no ip should be assigned. and if it is detected, then it should show in the ifconfig output. Could this be because the machine is being booted into Linux through loadlin? All the other machines have lilo in the MBR. Is this a known issue? Devdas Bhagat -- Has anyone seen my sig?

If you are setting up one for just dialup access, then just forwarding the queries to your ISP will usually work (and are significantly faster). If you want to setup one for a domain, you need to have the forward and reverse lookup files set up (which we here can help you setup). Please post the relevant parts of /etc/named.conf and the lookup files here. Also, the extract from /var/log/messages when you do ndc stop; ndc start.

Ispell??? > Can all of them use external editors? Ah... we are back at my favourite topic! Anyway, taking your queries one by one - All of these can use external editors. All three of them are written in mostly POSIX compliant C, and should compile on any Unix variant without problems. Pine even has a Windows port. I don't think elm has a spell checker option, but you can use a spell checker from the editor (usually vi, and vim in linux). In vim, :!ispell % followed by a :e! is usually enough. Mutt uses ispell by default, but you can specify anything else using the ispell configuration variable. The spell checker is invoked in the compose menu using the 'i' key. Pine, AFAICT, uses its internal spell checker. So, the many features of ispell may not be available. Elm package includes a program called filter, a primitive mail filtering program. Pine also has some sort of mail filtering options. Mutt does not have any - it wisely sticks to the task for which it was written - reading and writing emails. You really should use procmail for filtering - it is much more reliable and powerful. Pine and Mutt support POP3 and IMAP for remote mailboxes. Elm doesn't. Mutt can also be used as a command line mailer, like /bin/mail. It can be used in scripts. This is not possible with Pine. But I think it is, with Elm. Mutt and Pine supports PGP/GPG. Elm, the last time I checked, didn't. For further comparison of the three, you should go to Sven Guckes' pages. Point that browser to http://www.math.fu-berlin.de/~guckes and navigate from there. I should warn you, Sven has a marked bias towards Mutt. :-) Binand -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE6LoFPGXtiwttetWoRAjI5AKCSNp70jQaoM202jHTN3TIcYQUm6QCgk6Dt ndOXlxbBq6v0L97FcWpkR2Y= =E/DT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Thu Dec 7 07:31:08 2000 Received: from srishti.cgl.co.in (unknown [202.54.16.161]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AD0CA4A00C for ; Thu, 7 Dec 2000 03:36:27 -0800 (PST) Received: from neeraj ([192.168.7.14]) by srishti.cgl.co.in (Netscape Mail Server v2.02) with SMTP id AAA27796 for ; Thu, 7 Dec 2000 16:14:21 -0500 Message-ID: <005b01c0603a$b631a390$0e07a8c0@cgl.co.in> From: "Neeraj Manral" To: References: Subject: Re: what is bash ?

When I tried the GUI mode installation of Mandrake 7.2, after the initial few screens which were in GUI mode, I got thrown into the text(???) mode again for configuration of network etc... I was facing this problem with the ftp install... Later on trying the NFS install, it succeeded, but it somehow screwed up the LILO installation (on reboot it said, second stage boot loading failed - or something similar - my eye-sight gets pretty sore at 2AM in the morning!!) and I was running out of time so I couldn't try things further... One more thing I noticed was - I chose "Expert mode" installation and it promptly asked me "Are U sure U are an expert??"(!!!) etc, but gave me no further choices!!! I was not allowed to choose my partition sizes (only full disk or not - even in full disk I wud've expected to make my own partitions). The only choices I got wrt package installations were (KDE - 300 odd MB, GNOME - 300 odd MB, utitilies - 400 odd MB, miscellaneous - 400 odd MB (what can anyone ever get out of these messages - reminds one of winduz)!!! One really appreciable thing about the install process anyway was that hardware detection was superb!! It detected my old ISA NIC, graphics card etc without any problems whearas even with RH 6.2, I had to specify the settings manually. Was I doing something wrong??? One doubt here - where is the source for the install program?? I'll be trying the same install again this week-end, so if U want me to try out a few things or make notes etc - just let me know and I'll report to the list about my findings... Thanks once again, Cheers, Narain. On Wed, 6 Dec 2000, Archan Paul wrote: can u please make me know whether u are facing same problem in GUI mode installation of Mandrake7.2 ?

After doing so the problem i faced was that the gui was not working. With a little bit of research i came to know that i had to update my kernel with a couple of rpm's which i downloaded from the intel site. After which everything has been working fine. But there are a couple of issues i'd like to get your comments on : a)Using loadlin when i boot into linux the gui doesnot work. b)When i boot into linux using a boot disk it takes a hell of a long time for linux to start but when it does start everything works fine. Looking forward to hearing from you. _____________________________________________________ Chat with your friends as soon as they come online.

Help required Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archive-Number: 200012/201 X-Sequence-Number: 4600 Hi, I'm having RH 6.2 and have installed sendmail 8.11.0. I've seen that for local mail delivery sendmail doesn't uses SMTP, but for outgoing mails it does. I've a script written in PHP which uses the inbuilt mail() function of PHP, I want to tell sendmail to use SMTP always for all mails irrespective of local or outgoing. How to do that ? I've seen "pine" uses some feature with which all mails are being redirected to SMTP. How it does ? Can I configure sendmail in such a way that it does the same ? Please help !!! I need this b'coz I'm using Perl Sendmail Milter script which waits for mails at SMTP port. Since "pine" uses SMTP for all mail delivery , my script works perfectly for pine. But when I'm usinf PHP's mail() function to send mail, for outgoing mails my script works but for local delivery it doesnot respond. Expecting your early response.... regards Vinoos.

Now we ran into a particular problem in which we have to read the shadow file and authenticate users.(No we don't want to use the passwd C libraries) I noticed a weird thing. Isn't MD5 strings supposed to be in hexadecimal? The shadow file passwords are not so. I tried a small experiment. I put the password of a known person in a text file (without newline) and run md5sum on it. The hash had nothing in common with the /etc/shadow equivalent. What am i doing wrong?

That is because the MD5 sum in the shadow file is not just that of the password - it is of the password along with other information - like password expiration time and so on. You can peek into the source of the shadow-utils RPM to figure out how the process works. But, why don't you use PAM?

I think it is the old kernel that's why gui is not working. Copy the new kernel from /boot in your loadlin directory and start loadlin with this new kernel. Everything should be fine after that. By the way why are you not using lilo. With the new lilo you need not have /boot below 1024 cylinder limit. Sometime ago a link was posted to the mailing list to the new lilo sources. Compilation is simple too. make;make install. That's all. I am using this new lilo. It also has a menu interface to lilo. Cute............., no typing of lable at lilo prompt. Hope this helps.

The password stored in /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow is never just a simple 1 to 1 encryption. Two similar strings, when encrypted seperately, do not result in the same encrypted string. This is a measure of security. If two users sharing the same password or passphrase had the exact same entries in the /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow file, it would become easier to break into other user's account. Something called a "salt" is used to ensure that the same string, when encrupted on multiple occasions does not result in the same encrypted string. Thaths -- "This is a very, very proud day for us!

The MD5 passwords in Redhat /etc/shadow are base64 encoded. 2. The format of the password is: $type$salt$password type: 1 -- MD5 encrypted. Presumably other encryption schemes will use $2, $3, etc. salt -- 8-character salt used to permute the MD5 algorithm. password -- the base64 of the actual MD5 hash. 3. Here's the easiest way I found to make an RH-compatible MD5 password: perl -MCPAN -e 'install Crypt::PasswdMD5' (just once) perl -e 'use Crypt::PasswdMD5 ; print Crypt::PasswdMD5::unix_md5_crypt "plaintext" , time() % 100000000' (line may have wrapped). Should be trivial to modify this to do whatever you want with it.

What all things you have explained me , I've already come accross. Really thanks for taking effort in replying. Sorry for replying to your personal mail-id previously, b'coz I'm a newbie to this mailing list. I'll surely take care of that and won't repeat it. As you have metioned I'm attaching the entries of maillog file when I send mails locally and outside using the mail() function in PHP. It is clear from the maillog file that for the localmails it is not going thru SMTP. As far as sendmail -bs switch is concerned I've already experimented and it is working when I'm using sendmail at command prompt. # /usr/sbin/sendmail -bs -t < data.txt ########## Content of data.txt ############### helo localhost mail from: xyz@myhost.com rcpt to: abc@myhost.com data Subject : Test Mail This is a test mail using -bs switch .................... ................... . quit ############# End of data.txt ############# Some errors are being displayed , but the mails get delivered The above procedure I've used in PHP (opening a file writing all the data to a file , using 'exec' finally I'm sending); This is really a tidious job for aeach and every mail. I'm looking for an alternate solution so that I can use PHP's mail() function as it is and all mails(no matter whether it's an outgoing or local) should be routed through port smtp/esmtp. This is my final aim. Hope you have understood the problem, If not let me know ............. Expecting your early reply. regards Vinu Chandran --------------ED52885A32EDF602D1AA888C Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; name="maillog" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline; filename="maillog" ################### MAILLOG entry when I send mail to a local user of the same machine ############################## Dec 8 15:05:21 myhost sendmail[25095]: eB89ZK325095: from=nobody, size=250, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<200012080935.eB89ZK325095@my.myhost.com>, relay=nobody@localhost Dec 8 15:05:21 myhost sendmail[25097]: eB89ZK325095: to=sandy@my.myhost.com, ctladdr=nobody (99/99), delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=local, pri=30250, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent ################### MAILLOG entry when I send an outgoing mail ############################## Dec 8 15:08:24 myhost sendmail[25146]: eB89cO425146: from=nobody, size=242, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<200012080938.eB89cO425146@my.myhost.com>, relay=nobody@localhost Dec 8 15:08:36 myhost sendmail[25148]: eB89cO425146: to=vinoos@usa.net, ctladdr=nobody (99/99), delay=00:00:12, xdelay=00:00:12, mailer=esmtp, pri=30242, relay=mxpool01.netaddress.usa.net.

Grab a newer version of the package that contains /usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure from the Incoming directory (See Developers Corner in the Debian website). apu:/u/thaths 11% dpkg -S /usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure debconf: /usr/sbin/dpkg-preconfigure Then install that package using dpkg --install debconf*.deb Alternatively, you can also grab the /usr/sbin/dpkd-preconfigure from another machine which hasn't be upgraded recently. 2. If dpkg --install does not work in either cases, grab the latest known working version of debconf. Unpack it by running 'ar -x debconf*.deb' and 'cd usr/sbin/' and copy over the extracted dpkg-preconfigure to /usr/sbin/ Thaths -- "This is a very, very proud day for us!

I know the explanation for crypted passowrds I think. Correct me if I am wrong. For crypting you need a salt. You can use the text to be crypted as the salt itself if you want. Now if you have a crypted password and a plaintext to match with it, you can use crypt() on the plaintext with the encrypted password as the salt. If the resultant output is the same as the crypted password, the password is correct. i.e. crypt(, salt) = if crypt(, ) = the given text is correct. thanks, Sandip - -- - ------------------------------------- Sandip Bhattacharya sandipb @ bigfoot.com - ------------------------------------- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE6MR25Lbo5p3iZaVgRArcfAKCQApY8ZDHx4Rtbmr/7FtaB88kSyACgpega acckMz2kc9nG019Dyo6g11U= =BM0r -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- From linux-india-help-owner@lists.linux-india.org Fri Dec 8 16:16:35 2000 Received: from mail20.bigmailbox.com (mail20.bigmailbox.com [209.132.220.51]) by www.aunet.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id B359849F60 for ; Fri, 8 Dec 2000 09:14:08 -0800 (PST) Received: œby mail20.bigmailbox.com (8.8.7/8.8.7) id JAA15646; Fri, 8 Dec 2000 09:13:59 -0800 Date: Fri, 8 Dec 2000 09:13:59 -0800 Message-Id: <200012081713.JAA15646@mail20.bigmailbox.com> Content-Type: text/plain Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary X-Mailer: MIME-tools 4.104 (Entity 4.116) Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Originating-Ip: [203.109.64.29] From: "dodobh@nettaxi.com" To: linux-india-help@lists.linux-india.org Subject: RE: Re: weird MD5 encryption of shadow files X-Archive-Number: 200012/222 X-Sequence-Number: 4629 Dr. Sharukh K.

Right. >So how come if the result of encrypting the same string seperately gives >different results, does user authentication occur ? Someone else has already posted the format of the password in the shadow file. The DES encrypted password in /etc/shadow similarly contains the salt. Now your crypt function uses the salt in encryption. So if two different people have the same password, but a different salt, the resulting hash will be different. Say you use a one character salt, which is first XORed with your plaintext before encryption with your algorithm. So for the same string, with two different salts, you will get different results. (This may or may not be actually used somewhere, just a random example). Hope this clears some of your doubts.

The string under the password entry in /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow is not exactly the encrypted password. It is a combination of the encrypted password and the salt that was used. Here is what happens when authentication occurs: 1. The password typed in by the user is passed to crypt() along with the salt that was used when the user's password was first created (which is got from the password entry in passwd or shadow). 2. The encrypted string is then compared against the encrypted string in the password file. If they match, then the user is authenticated. The trick is the salt. The salt is something that varies quite a bit. If you and I choose the same word as our passwords, the salt used to encrypt that word is different between us.

What exactly are you looking for? Here's some info which may be useful: Go to the ``Tools'' menu. Select all the tools you wish to use (I usually enable IP Monitor and IP Trouble for systems and SNMP monitor for networking devices). Create your devices on the canvas using the mouse (or use IP Discover to discover them automatically). For each device (system or networking device), select it and use IP Monitor and/or SNMP Monitor to setup monitoring parameters (e.g. interface load for routers or CPU activity for servers). HTH.
