View 5 RepliesI need to set ulimit values according to
I used
Code:
ulimit -c unlimited
ulimit -s unlimited
ulimit -u unlimited
But after I log again to my session values are set to default. Now can I set this values so they don't change after log out of after reboot?
i m using following kernal.
Code:
# uname -r
2.6.18-128.2.1.4.9.el5xen
According to security manual i need to incorporate following changes into kernal parameter but i m not sure when and how these changes will be implemented.
Code:
net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_source_route must be set to "0"
net.ipv4.ip_forward must be set to "0" (zero)
icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts must be set to "1"
net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies must be set to "1"

I recently enabled noapic on my laptop because it was experiencing strange input freezes on several distros that I tried.Ok, so it does not use the ioapics. My question is, what does this mean for the system? If it used apics before, what happens now? I am a freshly graduated computer science major, and I have worked with basics pics on projects before, but I am curious how this effects the running system.

edit: Added "kernel.semmni = 2048" to the tail of /etc/sysctl.conf and then ran "sysctl -p". End result is an unknown key error (apparently kernel.semmni isn't the valid name anymore?).
I am trying to do a fsck on my ext3 partition, but so far failed to let the system come up in single user mode and having the partition mounted read only. It says in the kernel parameter that it is read only (RO) but still mounts it RW. A remount with mount -o remount,ro does not work, since / is always busy. what to do to get a fsck done? I don't want to boot into a rescue system, this should be possible on a running system (like Windows does it, when rebooting)

Is there a way to make this change using kernel boot parameters?
My question is about TCP parameters in Linux. By now, I want to change the default values of:
Initial Timeout
ACK Delay
Idle Connection Timeout
I have a Linux Box with kernel 2.6.x and 2 ethernet interfaces. I know TCP is a stack that doesn't have anything to do with ethernet devices. Said that, the question: is there a way to set custom values for each interface? For example, a server listening to connections in eth0 would use one value for Idle Connection Timeout and another server listening to connections in eth1 could use a different value for that parameter.
I got the following modprobe scripts modprobe -k -q streams what does the -k parameter mean?. is it exist in older modprobe? I don't see -k parameter in recent modprobe.

I need to place an Ubuntu machine on a network where I have a DHCP server which does not configure the Degault Gateway parameter (we don't want ordinary users to browse the internet). Is it possible to leave the machine using DHCP and define the Default Gateway manually (as in Windows XP i.e.)? How?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have not dug into Ubuntu for almost a year now (Since Jaunty, really). I am trying to come to grips with Grub2, but have just now encountered it in Lucid. I am having a terrible time with the graphics chipset, and it may well be that Ubuntu cannot be used on this computer (an older laptop with the dreaded Intel 82845G graphics chip). There are a number of older bug reports that it is unsupported, but some success in more recent versions.
Anyway, one suggestion has been to add i915.nomodset=1 to the kernel boot line. Now, this was a cinch in Legacy Grub, but I have been reading Grub2 wikis and tutorials for two days now, and I know about the config files, but I cannot find anything which tells me specifically how to add a parameter to the kernel boot line.
I have a "Chicony 1.3M UVC Webcam (Asus G1S notebooks)" webcam, which is supported by Linux UVC [1]. However I'm unable to find the kernel parameter that I should select to compile my kernel to support this device.

Modified boolean values are stored in

Can I just delete the file and reboot to get the defaults?
I made some changes to the Nvidia Xserver settings and now I get no signal to my monitors. I also have grub configured to only display the main ubuntu kernel and windows so there are no recovery options. How do I restore Xserver to working or default values?

It works fine, but is it possible to have default values using bash read(1b)? I mean if user is prompter for sex, he just pushes ENTER and by default 'm' is chosen. Or if user is prompted for hometown and he doesn't insert anything, but just pushes ENTER button, 'New-York' sis chosen by default Are such default values possible in bash?
It's documented in the howto's that you need to have the nomodeset kernel parameter specified if you want to run the proprietary Nvidia driver. But I read in certain posts that this is only required for "older" graphics cards.Can someone shed some light on this? Is the parameter ALWAYS required when running the nvidia driver, or only for certain graphic cards?

We are trying to implement a firewall as kernel module through netfilter hooking (in C). In the following code we are allowing only TCP traffic. Source port number and destination port number are printed for every TCP packet. On execution, this code prints wrong port numbers. This is the first time we are using skb_transport_header function for accessing tcp headers.
We verified port numbers being printed by firewall through NFS traffic. On the same machine where firewall is running, we hosted an NFS server. An NFS client (from a different system) puts a file in exported mount. Firewall is able to capture packets for this file transfer but port numbers printed are wrong. It prints '69' for source portnumber (whereas ethereal capture shows it as 790) and prints '553231' for destination port (whereas for nfs version 4 it has to be 2049).

I dual-boot my machine and I want it to default to boot into windows so that whenever I restart the machine remotely from my home it will be able to get back into Windows (instead of Ubuntu).
The problem is that every time Ubuntu upgrades the kernel, I have to reset the default boot item of grub back to windows. This is because the grub menu loader uses positions i.e. 6 for default OS to boot. And when Ubuntu installs a new kernel it changes that order.
I am looking for a way to configure grub to remember its default boot item under kernel updates.
Possible Duplicate:Make grub keep its default boot under kernel updates.I have just installed Linux with my windows 7 pre-installed and i got it working fine. Since i use windows 7 more than linux, i would like to have "Windows 7" option on the top of "Linux" option.
"When i have turn on my computer, the first thing i see is an Option asking me whether i want to use windows 7 or Linux and there's a countdown timer below it which is 10seconds countdown and if i don't select it on time, it will automatically select the first choice which at the moment i've got Linux pre-set as my first choice."
I was trying to know if relatime or noatime was set on a filesystem, but i didn't found the information, neither in /etc/fstab, neither in kernel boot options.
First of all, it seems clear that i don't have the "normal" behaviour on atime:
root@antec:/tmp# rm -f test.txt; echo a>test.txt
root@antec:/tmp# stat test.txt | grep -i 2011
Access: 2011-08-01 21:54:30.000000000 +0200
Modify: 2011-08-01 21:54:30.000000000 +0200
[Code]....
- Is noatime or relatime a default mount options, and if yes, from which kernel release ?
- Is there a way to see the default mount options (ie: how can i see why i don't have the "normal" atime behaviour ?)
differences between Kernel Default and Kernel Desktop? I've found some past threads like this link and this other link, and some other google info, which suggest the only difference would be the io scheduler. Also, I see the default grub choice is "Desktop" and not "Default", so I take this as a suggestion to prefer one over the other.
However, my broadcom 4312 wireless only works on the "default" and not on the "desktop" kernel, so I guess there must be other differences. I just want to evaluate which one is the less long-term risk option to go.
