Now while installing, I had 2 Hdds. at the time of partitioning, i used both as separate Hdd and made a /backup. I used that for my backups. That was RH9. Now I want to install Centos 5. and i wish to keep the /backup as it was. (as my cron scripts and others are written in this way)I wish that it will be mounted at the time of boot. And moreover, I can add a new hdd (using the manuals) but I need to keep the data.
Also the second question:: I have implemented a WiFi hotspot in a hotel with a Cisco WLC and several Cisco APs. Now I wish to restrict and log on access for both wifi and wired LAN using user names. Raduis is okey... with a mysql password database... I found a thing named hotex hotspot billing. But that's expensive. Also FCS's module is expensive too. I do not need billing, just access control. Any ideas on this?? It must be a linux based kind of baremetal package...
I am running Red Hat 5.5. Yesterday, a simulation software program I was running froze. I attempted to abort the program but the computer was unresponsive. When I attempted to copy my data to an external drive, the computer completely froze. After 30 minutes of not responding, I did a hard shutdown. When the computer rebooted, it appears that it has reverted to a state from 4 days ago. All of the data files that my simulation has created in the last 4 days are gone completely. However, some data that I removed 3 days ago seems to be back on the computer.
I opened some of the "removed" files and they are not corrupt, the data appears as it should. I contacted Red Hat support but all they could tell me is that there is no record of anyone logging into the computer between 4 days ago and when I rebooted yesterday. They claim to have never heard of this problem before. I have had this problem once before on a different computer but the simulation program completely filled the hard drive, which is when it crashed and "reverted" to a previous time. But it looked like I still had 11GB free yesterday when it crashed.
how can i prevent erase of screen data while scrolling. When i use the ANSI cursor movement commands(27[PnS , 27[PnT etc) say for scroll down the top lines get erased. i.e. if i scroll up after scroll down, i am unable to view top lines again.

Situation: I upgraded by way of a fresh install from openSuSE 11.2 to 11.3 (GNOME desktop).
Before upgrading, I produced the above mentioned backup file so that I could import all the mail, addresses etc. into the new application.
Result: it does not work. The process starts up seemingly normal but then simply sits there forever with the message "evolution shuts down" - but it does'nt. I have to kill it to stop it.
I am looking forward to a resolution since it would be a real pity if I lost the mail history.
When I install Fedora 12, I tried to use manual partition like before. But installation failed somewhere. So I have to accept Fedora 12's default partition. Once I experienced slow login problem. I have to reinstall. But the reinstallation would delete the previous installation. Is there a good way to keep personal files intact on reinstallation?

Wanted to make sure I added safe repositories, and why these changes?
ps. i checked some websites and seems like it is installing alpha/beta versions. so since it is not working now - how do i revert to previous versions without losing data, and how do i install thunderbird 3.0 then.
I want to install (or compile myself) a previous kernel release (2.6.31.13). Where can I get it?
I mean a Debian Kernel with all your patches etc.
I'm using Debian Unstable. I just noticed that it was the quickest kernel (well, maybe for me only and my hardware).
I'm using F11 and I've downloaded and installed kernel 2.6.30.4-25.fc11.x86_64 from koji.
Since I'm dumb.... I've installed with rpm -Uvh kernel* so now I've loose the latest stable fedora kernel...
I've tried to manually download kernel but when I try to install it complains because it's older then the current installed.
How can I restore to kernel 2.6.29?
I used to have 2.6.34-12-default kernel. Recently I downloaded and installed 2.6.35.1-1.1 DEBUG kernel. Because I cannot either use pre-compiled packages or compile new package from source, I want to go back to 2.6.34-12-DEFAULT kernel.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have looked for existing threads on this issue, but found no matches, so I am starting a new one.I first installed Ubuntu 9.04 on my laptop from a bought CD last year. When I later installed the kernel updtates with the Update Manager, I noticed the the list of versions growing when I booted up. Then something horrible happened. After installing maybe the third or fourth kernel update, I couldn't boot into Ubuntu, it failed every time. After that I left Ubuntu broken on my laptop for a while.I have now reinstalled from the CD again However, I am now very wary when it comes to installing even the important security updates, never mind the recommended ones! I prefer to keep it simple, because I don't want to do any more reinstalls for a while. So far I have just one kernel headers update on the boot list, and I am trying to figure out how to remove the previous one. I do not see the point in having a growing list of them again.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI upgraded to 2.6.35-30.56 last night and now my system's a little flaky. Everything seems to be running ever-so-slightly slower and fullscreen flash is now choppy. The weird thing is the Grub menu upon bootup only shows the latest kernel, but not the previous kernels. Doing an "ls" of the /boot folder only shows this newest kernel. I'd like to revert back to the previous kernel but don't know how.

However, when I open it all I see is grub. Palimpsest sees both the 250MB of grub and efi etc., and it also sees 120GB of LVM2. I cannot however access any of my data.

I found that the modules usbserial, option, qcserial were missing. I installed them using "insmod".After that I have removed and reconnected the device. Still the OS is not detecting the device.After the reboot of the machine, again the modules related to USB are missing.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWe purchased a new database system at work last October, ditching the old system because of a lack of support from the vendor. This is a retail Point of Sale and Backoffice database system. I am not sure what system the new one runs on, but the system we replaced was a Firebird data base. The reason I am posting is because we are now in need of the information contained in the old database which was not completely imported into the new system.
Basically the problem is this: The database in on a Windows XP system and I found a copy of SQL Manager Lite 2008 on the system, which after quite a bit of studying, I figured out how to extract the database into a removable file. I have this file (178MB) on a USB stick in a file called Backoffice.fbd.
My studying suggests to me that I can get into this database with MySQL. I have never used this and have no clue how to do this. All I want to be able to do get into the database and create tab deliminated spreadsheet files for each of the database sections (Customers, Repairs, Sales History, stock files, etc.) Is it possible to do this with Ubuntu and MySQL and if so, can expert suggest one or two things to get me started. While a guided tutorial would be nice because I am not an expert, I am willing to learn on my own if someone could point me in the right direction.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a powerful network traffic monitor that can do all of the following (or at least a combination of tools that can do the following):
Tell me how much data was downloaded/uploaded on an interface this month and the previous month tell me how the traffic was used throughout the monthshow which internal IPs (IPs in the 192.168.1.0/24 network) used how much traffic show which ports/protocols on those IPs used all that traffic
Hhow LIVE traffic flow statistics that can tell me total speed of traffic going through an interface as well asshow which internal IPs (IPs in the 192.168.1.0/24 network) are using how much of the traffic show which ports/protocols on those IPs are using that traffic
This tool will run on a linux router through which all my internal PCs are connected to the Internet. This means the tool(s) need to work with NAT (traffic being forwarded and not necessarily destined for the interfaced being monitored).
The distribution being run doesn't have a package manager so any packages or dependencies have to be manually compiled and SCPed over file by file. For this reason, the tool/tools need to be simple (things like vnstat, not things like ntop that have their own web interface).
I know that vnstat can tell me the first bullet point so it's only there incase there's a tool out there that can do everything. If there's a tool that can only do the second or third bullet point, that's great too - I'll just keep using vnstat and look for something else to do the other task.
Iam using snmp to access the remote system data.But according to the requirement iam encoding the snmp request data to OAMPDU packet format and sending to remote system.the remote system receives the OAMPDU packet,decodes it and is sending the snmp packet to snmp agent through UDP socket which is bind to port 161.but iam unable to receive the response from snmp agent.i have created a udp socket which is bind to 161 port to receive the response.
if i use any other free port number other than 161 for receiving snmp agent is not sending the response to that port.can any one please suggest me how to overcome this problem.Can we configure the different ports for tx,rx ?How do we know on which port does snmp sends the response ???

After a kernel update, the system always updates the GRUB menu, and the newer kernel is the default boot option.However, after an update on my F13 X64 system, the GRUB menu was updated, the config file still sets the default to "1" but if i left the automatic boot it will boot the previous kernel... am I crazy or missing something here?Here is my /boot/grub/grub.conf file:
Code:
#boot=/dev/sda
default=1

On my Mac, OS X Snow Leopard 10.6, I copied my itunes music files onto my external hard drive, which is HFS+ formatted (as FAT32 just wouldn't cut it for the other files that are on this drive, mainly 1080p video spanning several gigs on a single file)..
Here's the problem, Linux doesn't have ANY permissions it seems to access it.. I did nothing special on the Mac side, just drag and dropped all the files over.
As a normal user I can't open the folder. As root, I can go into the folder, but still can't access the files themselves!
I can't write to it either to change permissions because HFS+ is read only.
I need these files IMMEDIATELY, and I need to know how to do this now.

As root: [URL]

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a server which had one drive in it that was using LVM. I removed it and moved it to the secondary bay in the same server, then installed a fresh new blank drive in the primary bay on this server.
I then installed CentOS 5.2 on the new drive. During the partition phase of the install, I partitioned my new drive and MAY or MAY not have removed the LVM from the second drive and left the partition there, not sure exactly what I did.
After install I wanted to try to mount the old drive so I could access the files on the old drive. The /boot partition shows up when I do a df -h but not the / partition where everything I need is stored.
When I look at the drives in Webmin, the second drive is there and shows up as LVM but has not LVM name.
Basically what I need is on /dev/sdb2.
How I might be able to mount this partition which seems to still exist when looking at webmin.
I have been tasked with accessing data stored on a WD Sharespace drive. I have a machine running Fedora 13 at my disposal to do this. So far I am running into dead ends. The drive is connected via Ethernet, but I have never accessed a network drive in Linux before.
