I run SSH daemon on my Fedora 15 (server). When I generate public/private key on my laptop (client) and put public key to authorized_keys on server it works excellent. But when I change IP address of laptop (change WLAN) I have problem to connect. I searched GOOGLE but I havent find any information. I also tried the same from other laptop with the same result.
View 11 RepliesA week ago or so neither ssh nor scp were working when attempting to connect to my on-campus computer from home. ssh was complainig about the key not matching and I figured out I could just delete the config file it was reading the (now old) key from and let it create a new one with the updated key upon prompting me whether or not to trust the remote host.
However, even though ssh is now working, I can no longer use scp. I issued scp -v and discovered a bunch of errors. scp prompts me for the remote password and even prints the message of the day on the remote computer but then just hangs and doesn't seem to be copying any files. I'm sure the issue is with the whole key change issue but I can't quite figure out why ssh would be working just fine and scp would be failing.
I am using the default CVS available in Fedora 9. I initiated the CVS server by
cvs -d /usr/local/cvsproj init
To check-in and check-out the following exports commands are used
export CVS_RSH=ssh
export CVSROOT=:ext:swathi@SERVER:/usr/local/cvsproj
I shall explain problem by taking an example. A project was checked in long before (for example the checkin date is 25 Feb 2010). And today (i.e. 21 June 2011) I checked out the project from the repository. After checkout, the date of the project in the repository is changed from 25 Feb 2010 to 21 June 2011. This date is set to all the subfolders in that project. But the files in the project retains the checking date i.e. 25 Feb 2010. Why the check-in dates are getting updated/changed to the system time after doing check-out.
I upgraded from Fedora 10 to Fedora 11, and it seems that when I saved my main.cf file, something changed in the versions and it no longer works. I've tried going through the file and tweaking it, but it's not working. Here is the postconf

I have a recently setup my first linux server (hardy) and am having problems with the permissions for a log file being changed. I believe this is caused by syslogd, but am not sure how to correct it. Bacula will report it is unable to start a backup because it is unable to open the log file (/var/lib/bacula/log) "permission denied". After changing the owner from syslog to bacula, the backup will resume. However, the following day I encounter the same problem because the owner of the log has been changed back to syslog.I see where the permissions for logs are altered in sysklogd, but I am not certain how to make bacula exempt or if this is the right approach.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have set up Ubuntu 10.04 and am running it on a VPS. I have everything the way I want it but I have encountered a problem. When I created my user, I did this:
adduser myname
that worked fine, it also assigned me to group called myname, which isn't what i wanted. so i tried to change my group to staff with the following:
sudo usermod -g staff myname
it works fine and i can verify my new group by:
groups myname
and get:
staff
but...now here come the bit I don't understand, when I make a new file/folder and then look at their ownership it is the old group (ie. myname). is this right? shouldn't the ownership of the file now be myname staff? not myname myname.
this is what i did to create a new file, while logged in under myname:
touch a
mkdir da
ls -al
I have followed the tutorial from this site [URL]. I have changed this file /etc/apache2/sites-available/default and in this file I have changed AllowOverride None to AllowOverride All but still I get:

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@localhost and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error. More information about this error may be available in the server error log. I have installed and reinstalled apache 2 time already.
I'm going to make a nightly backup copy from one server to another, using rsync. If I have a sufficiently large file, say 4+ GB or so, I'm not interested in copying the whole file if only a small change has been made. Can rsync detect small changes on block level and backup only those if needed?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI run Samba version 3.4.7 as a Domain server for our company, and recently we reorganized our IP-addresses. And the Samba server also got a new IP-address. (192.168.1.60 -> 192.168.1.22). However, now new computers can not join the domain, and old ones can not connect to it correctly (they get a temp profile).
Windows XP gets a temp profile when connecting, and when trying to join a domain I get this error "A domain controller for the domain HAWAR3 could not be contacted. Ensure that the domain name is typed correctly. If the name is correct click Details for troubleshooting".
When trying to connect Windows2008R2 (already a member) it says:
"There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request."
My guess is that is is some problem with WINS or something.
Im wondering about proxy servers, see it is like this: I got banned from a samp server and i can't get my ip changed (it's not the local address it's the one all the computers in my house shares) I searched a little bit and discovered that a proxy server would be the best option. If I have it in some one else house I will get another ip right? Is it possible to install some software on my laptop and just use that? and how do I do that? Btw I found this: [URL]. But I didn't understand so much of it.

I recently installed virtual box on debian and after it had finished my terminal informed me that I could remove some "unnecessary" software by use of sudo apt-get autoremove.

View 4 Replies View RelatedF12 completely patched. Can someone provide some insight into the various volume controls available and why they seem to conflict with each other? The incognito application that loads up on the task bar as a speaker icon keeps getting changed. I try to nail it at 100% but it keeps getting altered - how I don't know. BTW - I say its an incognito application as there is no way to identify what piece of software it actually represents. I assume it's the gnome-volume-control-applet, but there is no way to know for sure as it is devoid of any identification. I run rhythmbox and its volume control also gets altered from where I attempt to set it.
I assume that gnome-volume-control-applet is the master to set a limit on what anything else can do. I then assume that rhythmbos's volume control operates within the envelope that gnome-volume-control-applet allows. Both assumptions are probably wrong as nothing makes any sense. Maybe all the pulseaudio stuff is also in there somewhere messing with the controls, but I see no user space apps to influence pulseaudio. To top it off, I can push the volume control on rhythmbox around from 100% down to 16% and there is no discernible change in volume. When I hit 14% there is a halving of volume, and from there on down to 0% seems to function linearly as expected. Why is there this non responsive range between 16% and 100%?
I've been using Linux for about 15 yrs.. and this is driving me crazy.My daughter often plays on my linux box - a kinda-fresh f12 install.. running gnome.SO one day I go on my computer and my icons on my desktop are as if she changed my display to 800x600 - since the icons are so huge - but web browsing & once i open an application the sizing is fine.Wondering what she may have done to make my icons so huge.i can't seem to figure out any settings for this - she was messing with accessibility options since she had some software keyboard coming up at login too

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am trying to recover some data on some drives that are in the same LVM. When I upgraded the motherboard, I had complications getting the drives to all load under the LVM, and in the process I made the mistake of formatting one of the drives. The problem now is that the UUID changed on the drive so when I try to mount the LVM it can't find device with a certain UUID. When I try to set the UUID back to the old one it says 'Invalid UUID format'.
I can set it to a UUID generated through 'uuidgen', si I then noticed that the format of that UUID is different than the old one which I'm trying to set it to. Why is that? Is there a way I can get it to change to the old one in the different format?
The old format: yQtrVB-5jCk-vF10-05c2-AcDL-GNn1-ivdxxh
The new format: d5224587-a6cd-4a66-a12b-d7b75eec5871
I've done a search thru the forums on a recent headache but couldn't find anything. now we all know that windows installations knackers the grub boot-up, and it becomes modus-operandi to repair the boot loader, with a live distro. however, in my current dual boot system (vista.sp2/fedora12), i've done a clean install of windows7 over the current windows ntfs partition. as standard, the boot menu would vanish. but when i put in the live-linux cd, gparted now shows the fedora partition (sda6) as LVM2. i'm somewhat of a neophyte with linux, but fedora12, suse11.2 and ubuntu don't seem to yet support this file system. since i don't have critical data on the fedora partition yet, i usually wouldn't mind reformating this part', but the wireless chipset on my laptop cost a fortune on cups of coffee and beer to install, and in addition i used the fedora12 FEL spin and want to keep the installation intact. is there anyway to make the LVM2 indentifier back to ext3 or 4 and repair grub form there (without loosing the current partition kernal etc.)?

View 10 Replies View Relatedim having an intel E2180 processor with 2 gb RAM and an nvidia 8400gs graphics card. Lately i installed Fedora 12 on my system and found that with default settings the desktop 3d is not working. so installed the kmod-nvidia using yum after following the instruction.i also edited the grub.conf file to rdblacklist=nouveau to blacklist nouveau drivers.
Then once i rebooted i found two kernels in grub ie the old one and the one with PAE extension. when i booted into the old kernel its Xwindows failed to load showing a black screen and when i tried the new PAE kernel it booted in 640 x 480 resolution. {earlier i was getting a resolution of 1440 x 900 on my 17" widescreen monitor}. it also showed that the nvidia drivers failed to load. I also read in some forums that the PAE kernels are for systems with 4gb+ of ram. So i thought it better to reinstall the whole thing.
then i reinstalled the whole operating system using my fedora 12 dvd and performed the 'upgrade or replace the existing linux distribution'. interestingly now my older kernel has disappeared and the PAE kernel is the one that is remaining.
