View 4 RepliesI've got a strage problem with openssh-server on debian lenny. I've done setup of sshd and basically everything works fine. I can check the fingerprint of the ssh-keys on the server and it matches with the fingerprint shown on the client for the first connection. so the key is stored in the known-hosts-file on the client.
The problem occurs after a "connection reset by peer" (i guess when the connected client goes to sleep or a timeout occures)!
After such a reset, when I try to connect to the server, the banner "WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!" appears and the shown fingerprint of the server-key is totally wrong (it differs from the one on the server, BUT it is everytime when this problem occurs the same fingerprint). If I nevertheless remove the correct key from the known-host-file and accept the new key, I still can't login (permission denied).
To fix this situation temporarily I just need to restart the networking on the server. After the network-restart I get (again) the correct fingerprint of the server-key and can login without problems. Until the next connection reset.
I've recently installed a new graphic card after my old one started to go belly-up and it works nicely in X with twinview. The card have one VGA, one DVI and one HDMI. I have the monitor connected to the VGA and my projector connected to the DVI. However, when I boot the monitor (VGA) don't receive a signal. It is dead until X comes up (and when X comes up it does exactly what I want, it uses the VGA monitor as the main screen).
I had this setup on my old card to and it worked fine. Grub and boot console showed on both screens and I never had to tweak anything to make it do this.
how to enable the VGA outlet, either have boot enabled or only the VGA enabled (either way is fine by me but I really want to see Grub and the boot console on startup).
I have installed apache and oracle 10g R2 and I have compiled php with oci8. After compilation it seems to work fine and my application can connect to oracle database server. But when I reboot my system and browse the same application it gives me " problem connecting to x.x.x.x server".and then If i again compile my php with oci8 then it again works fine. This scenario goes on and on and on.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI tried to set up my first dual boot, Ubuntu 10.04 already on drive, added Dream Linux 4 beta 6.3. Now the default is Dream Linux, and the boot option flies past so fast that if you don't have your finger on the down arrow and press immediatly when the screen flashes, you go to Dream. I did a search that said to run grub-mkconfig and add the second os to the file. I got

Another thread said to use chroot, but no instructions. I am not knowledgable in command line, and am unsure how to proceed. What I want to accomplish is Ubuntu as the default OS, and more time to decide before the default is loaded.
My environment is RHEL5. For the sake of discussion, I have two systems, each with multiple ethernet ports.
To simplify the discussion, let's say each computer has two ports. One port is the "public" ethernet (eth0) and the other is the "private" (eth4) ethernet.
All the boot activities must occur on the private site, and to a point this works well. DHCP works, the pxelinux.0 file is transferred (seen using wireshark) and the client appears to bootstrap, when the bootstrap restarts the DHCP handshake using the wrong ethernet port (eth0).
The client does NOT get far enough along to read the client's configuration document under pxelinux.cfg.
How do I instruct pxelinux.0 to use eth4 and not eth0 to continue the boot process?
I have been working on a network problem and have found what the actual problem is. For some reason on boot the netmask for my eth0 is set to be 255.255.255.255 In the network GUI application it is set correctly to 255.255.255.0
I looked in the following files and it is set there correctly too.
/etc/sysconfig/networking/devices/ifcfg-eth0
/etc/sysconfig/networking/profile/default/ifcfg-eth0
/etc/sysconfig/networking-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
If I check the box to "controlled by network-manager" the eth0 interface is started at boot but with a netmask of 255.255.255.255. If I uncheck this box then the interface does not come up at boot and I have to go to the GIU application to start it. It still comes up with the netmask of 255.255.255.255
I have to use ifconfig to set it to the right netmask and then everything works until I reboot.
"ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.65 netmask 255.255.255.0"
How do I get this to work properly? I need it to come up with the correct netmask.
I'm running windows 7 and the F12 Beta (although the same issue existed in my f11 distro) on an asus g71 bb. When ever I boot into windows my time is correct. If I boot into to F12 my time is wrong. Usually by 4 hours. If I change it in Linux when I boot into windows I end up switching the time on my windows partition. I tried searching the forum (rather casual I'll admit) and couldn't find any solutions.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI've set-up dual boot on my laptop. Ubuntu installed first, then Windows 7 so it uses Grub2 to control the booting on start-up. I've noticed that my system clock goes out by an hour on both OS's, I change the clock to correct time & on reboot the time is usually (not always straight away) an hour behind. Has anyone else had this problem & know how to fix it?

My old server machine running Ubuntu 6 experienced hardware failure, so I built a new machine with spare parts and decided to install 10.10. I used the 2 HDDs from the old machine and decided to use existing partitions for the 10.10 installation. I specified the existing partitions on a 250 GB PATA drive for root, /boot, /home, and swap. For some reason when I booted up 10.10 for the first time, the other HDD (750 GB SATA) was mounted as /boot. I never specified the second drive to be used for anything during the installation, so I have no idea why this happened.and how can I change the mount point for /boot? I would like the highlighted partition in the attached screenshot to be /boot. I really hope nothing on the 750 GB drive was overwritten in this whole process, because it contains all of my photo and video backup.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just updated my server from Ubuntu 8.04 to 10.04 and now it cannot go past grub, at boot time, it would "give up waiting for root device", asking me to check whether I gave the right "root=..." or if I should increase the "rootdelay=..." in the command line argument and end up with the initramfs.
The machine is a Dell Poweredge 2900 with a HW RAID controller (I hope that should not matter, but just in case...). I tried to follow the instructions there to make sure grub is setup correctly, but without any luck.
Below is the output from the bootinfoscript (while running on the LiveCD). Anybody has any idea what can be the problem or what I could do to debug this ? I am running out of ideas.

A while ago I moved partitions from sda1 to sda6 because the original partition wasnt big enough. So when I update grub (now grub 2) it resets everything to sda1 and I've no idea how its doing it. Does anyone know where grub 2 gets the default partition from or does it just select sda1 automatically?

I recently installed another Linux distro, Kali Linux, alongside my Debian 8 and discovered to my chagrin that my computer boots to Kali's grub rather than to the Debian grub. I had spent some time customizing Debian's grub and would hate to see that effort go to waste. Is there a way I can get my computer to boot to Debian's grub instead? I tried deleting Kali's boot partition with gparted but that did not seem to do anything.
View 14 Replies View RelatedToday I fresh installed the latest stable version of debian (jessie) with gnome from the USB DVD image for a 64bit machine. Everything got fine except the graphic driver, I think.
Now Gnome 3 is running but graphic is super slow. My previous debian/gnome 3 ran much better and I think there is a problem with the graphic driver.
I'm on an thinkpad t61.
Processor: Intel Core2 Duo CPU T7500 @ 2.20GHz × 2
Ram: 4GB
Graphic: VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (primary) (rev 0c)
Now the graphic is: Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.5, 128 bits) which is likely wrong. If I'm not mistaken llvmpipe is pure slow software acceleration.
Moreover this was different on my previous debian (wheezy), which was faster. Anyway I don't know what " Gallium 0.4 on llvmpipe (LLVM 3.5, 128 bits) " is and it was for sure different in wheezy.
According to apt-get I have the latest intel graphic divers installed. So maybe this an X-org confic problem?
A couple of days ago I asked why my pc changes the wireless card name.It switches between AR9285 ( right) and AR5008 ( wrong). Well, it is not the case. When system identified with AR9285,it loads ath9k and I can connect to the router. When system identifies my card as AR5008, no kernel module is present at all ( lspci -k). The wrong card name occurs only when system rebooted. If I gracefully shut down the system, it always comes up with a right name for the card( AR9285). So, how to force the system identify my card right no matter if I reboot or shut down?
