I am writing this second topic to know how I can have hamachi automatically loaded at startup of PC (with fedora 10) without having to manually start. I tried several scripts but nothing works .

I have recently installed denyhosts to help guard against bruteforce ssh attacks on my Fedora 12 server from the Fedora repositories. If I manually start denyhosts (as root) using: /usr/sbin/denyhosts.py --daemon
it works fine. The denyhosts log file is created and indeed the /etc/hosts.deny file is updated. However if I make attempts to start denyhosts automatically upon the server restart denyhost fails with a permission denied error for /etc/hosts.deny (error 13) I have tried using chkconfig to enable /etc/init.d/denyhosts on run levels 3, 4 and 5. I have also tried including the line:
/usr/sbin/denyhosts.py --daemon
in /etc/rc.local Both of these attepts report the same error. anyway to automatically start denyhosts or know why this problem might be happening?
I just updated both my KDE 3.5.10 and KDE 4.5 today (OpenSuse 1.11). The problem that I have now is that the Plasma Desktop is loaded automatically after KDE 3.5 has started. So, depending on where I click or what I do, plasma and kdesktop fight for the control of my desktop.
I searched in every corners of my KDE 3.5 --and a bit in KDE 4 since somebody forced kdm4 on me-- but I haven't found who or what starts "plasma-desktop". Definitively not me! I can kill it safely but that's very irritating.
In Ubuntu 9.10 I configured manually network settings to /etc/network/interfaces, and it works fine when I run /etc/init.d/networking restart.
Problem is that those settings are not loaded to GUI application (Preferences/Network connections).
I don't want to edit my preferences there, I just want to use my interfaces file as default! Do you know what's going on?
I have 10.04 NBR and have set a desktop background image which is fine until I shut down and then upon booting it is not shown until I go to appearance->background and it suddenly apears as the desktop
why it is not shown automatically on starting ?
I do need KInternet to connect. Although if in the KInternet preferences I selected that KInternet should load automaticly at startup/boot, this just this doesn't happen. A workaround is possible, by placing an alias of KInternet on the desktop and clicking on that one after startup. However, couldn't I get it to load automaticly like it worked under 11.1 / KDE 3.5 ?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI was messing around with my newly installed Archlinux, in a virtual machine (thankfully not my main computer) and now I cannot boot up. The issue is, I read that I could add commands in the rc.local file so that they would be automatically executed after booting up... so, I added the "pacman -Syu" command there, but it usually asks for a confirmation to continue, and that's why I think it is getting stuck there (it gets stuck just after running the daemons).
So, is there a way to stop the rc.local file to be loaded at startup?

I am an administrator of a student lab with 20 PCs. I was thinking of a way to protect those machines in the long run with the presence of some students with destructive behaviour. The most suitable solution to install a Linux OS and use virtual machines to load Microsoft OS. This way once the OS fails I can simply replace the VM with a clone that was previously made.
The point is that most students have no experience with Linux, that's why I need to load the Virtual machine automatically at login and in full-screen view so that The startup process ends up in Microsoft OS through the virtual machine (VMWare based) in Linux platform.
update : I'm using Fedora13 Linux distribution. I believe that part of launching the VM in full-screen is more difficult than automatically launching VMWare at startup. Is there some way I can tell VMWare to launch a particular virtual machine in full-screen when it starts on boot?
My software RAID setup is as follows.
/dev/md0 (made from sda1 and sdb1) RAID1 /boot partition
/dev/md1 (made from sda2, sdb2, and sdc2) RAID5 / partition
Earlier on I had some trouble with my sda drive, it dropped itself from both arrays, screwing up the mirroring of my two raid partitions participating in the /boot partition. I eventually got everything sorted out and back in sync. (I also have grub installed to MBR on both sda and sdb). Things are working fine regarding that, but since then I've had this issue:
During boot up, I'll get an error message that it could not mount my /boot partition (when fstab is set to either /dev/md0 or the UUID). It claims c9ab814c-47ea-492d-a3be-1eaa88d53477 does not exist!
My fstab:
Code:
[mark@mark-box ~]$ cat /etc/fstab
#
# /etc/fstab
# Created by anaconda on Wed Jan 20 16:34:41 2010
[code]....
As far as I know, it isn't neccessary for /boot to be mounted always, correct? Although, as I understand, I need to have it mounted whenever making kernel changes correct?
I simply cannot get this to work, has anybody managed it?
My problem is related to tuncfg I believe. I make the modification to the source of tuncfg to change ifconfig to /sbin/ifconfig. If I run hamachi start debug I get the following output:
It appears it cannot create the hamachi network interface because it doesn't appear under ifconfig.

For the x64 version i need to start skype with a bash command so that the video and sound works and i thougth that a simple batch in folder bin would solve it.

How can I turn off specific authentications? I don't want to have to authenticate every time I mount a different drive (in a different partition). (Because I can't open Mozilla, since it pulls a profile from that partition, without authenticating; and I want to have Mozilla automatically launch on startup, but it can't launch if I need to type my password to gain access to the drive first!).

Recently I have had a run of random errors on boot up. Finally, the quit button, top right of the screen disappeared permanently. I am convinced it is because I added Evolution to the programs that start automatically when I login to Ubuntu (auto login). Evolution uses the Internet connection which hasn't been successfully established by the time it starts. In the past, this would crash Ubuntu. It seemed to be fixed by this stage, but maybe not. Is there some way of delaying the startup of a program in the automatic startup list - to give the rest of everything time to settle in - before it starts trying to use other startup resources?
