General :: How To Obtain Installation From Source
Jun 22, 2010
I have the fedora 13 installed on my pc, but I have chroot debian in my NAS arm. My question is for NAS, but is the same for only linux generally. Regarding NAS, some packets are old, because there are not binaries for latest version for a software. But I can install latest software from source configure, make, make install etc... In the case of NAS, this process goes for many hours like 12hours or more.
In order to avoid the same process again in the case of a clean install of chroot debian, or to configure 2-3 NASes that I have, how can I "backup" the software that other times fast install.

I've recently had a new Video Card installed in my Ubuntu machine. (the old card failed)...
SYSTEM >> ADMIN >> HARDWARE DRIVERS - says my video card is active / running.
- The Installation guy - Didn't install the drivers (the CD was for a WINDOWS machine)
1) The driver may be installed & running - However - How do I know / test that it is the *RIGHT* driver for the new video card installed ?
2) How do i tell / find out the brand name of the physical card ?
(the CD disk says SAPPHIRE / ATI Radeon)

I have a Norton Ghost .gho file, and basicly I want to extract the raw image out of this, for example to use with with tools like dd. (So using any symantec/windows tools is not an option). Is there any open source tool which can deal with these .gho files ?
(Note: the.gho file I'm using is a sector based one, and not a file-based one, which implies that things such as Ghost explorer won't work either (see this page)

I am trying to figure out a way to pull the user information from local users on a Linux server. I have approximately 40 servers running SUSE and Ubuntu that are using Microsoft Active Directory in order to authenticate. Our internal auditing group has made us disable root ssh ability, I was doing this with clusterssh, but I can login as me then su on the server to conduct root, admin, work. This is an ongoing request to get the local users and it is a painfully slow process since I have to login to each server to get the /etc/passwd file. Is there another way to get the local user information? They are now asking about seeing the last logon date or if the account is disabled, any thoughts there as well?Most of our auditors think Windows and I am trying to make my life easier but not sure what options I have. I need to get local accounts and if they are active or disabled plus last logon date. I'm sure there will be more but if I can get the basics adding more shouldn't be too difficult but I guess I'll cross that bride when I get there.

I accidentally deleted my .config for my kernel configuration on Linux, and seem to remember there was a way to retrieve the kernel configuration via the proc filesystem somehow. Is this still possible, and if so how would I do it?

I'm having some problems bringing up my wireless card at boot time on my Red Hat Linux 9.0 box. After some investigation with the boot scripts, I noticed that it was having problems with the DHCP negotiations when the ifup wlan0 command is issued.I then tested the command outside of the booting process and everytime the command is issued the first time, the dhclient fails to get any DHCP offers and returns with the message Unable to obtain a lease on first try. Exiting. and then exits.
If I then issue the same ifup command again a second time, it successfully receives a DHCP offer from the router and receives the needed IP address, and after this, the Internet connection on the box works fine. It is consistently doing this everytime. Why is it failing to obtain a lease the first time?

I am trying to write a bash script that would save the current state of my konsole terminals and sessions. I'm using KDE3.X and for some reason the "profile" save does not save the current working directories... Anyway, I would like to know if there is an elegant way to obtain the current workdir of each terminal and session ? I've managed to do something with a clever use of DCOP extended functions, but it requires me to start every konsole with the --script option enabled, and I don't want to do that.

Is there any way to get the configure line that was used to build an Apache installation from source.
I compiled Apache 2.2.14 a while ago on Ubuntu and I can't remember the ./configure line I used to build it. Is there any way I can retrieve it?

My first installation of RedHat was in 1996 , version 3, then I switched to Mandrake because they supported the hardware I had at that time. Now I am a little worried about the direction Mandriva has taken lately so need to reconsider RedHat. I was hoping to buy the distribution on a disk medium but the main site seems to be addressed to the business community not home users like me. Downloading is not attractive so I wondered if it was possible to buy a boxed set of Fedora or RedHat for a home user.

In other UNIX-like OS I can go to an rc file (like kdmrc) and find the line "Allow root access at login=no" and change it to yes. How would I do this in Fedora-12, or what do I need to do to obtain permanent root accessed including with-in the GUI and not just at the command-line. I use only GNOME for Fedora-12

Been a ubuntu user for almost a year. I've decided to branch out and install fedora on my other laptop.
Currently I'm trying to create a bootable usb using this guide:[url]
Using rpm to check for livecd-tools tells me it's not installed.
I tried to get it through apt-get install livecd-tools. But that didn't find anything.
I tried installing yum and to obtain it but to no avail. Same error as apt, "Not available".

I have an Ubuntu server running behind a router and I generally manage it from a remote location. I ran into a problem today when I changed the subdomain that the router is on and in turn changed all of the ip addresses for everything on the local network. After restarting the router, I can no longer access the Ubuntu server.
I made sure that I changed the port forwarding settings to reflect the changes in ip addresses. Also the router does not even show the Ubuntu server as having an ip address issued to it. So from that I guess that the server never requested for a new ip after the router restarted. I think I've had this problem before and I ended up restarting the entire server manually. I know that if I restart it, everything should be back to normal. That's what I'll have to end up doing, but I wanted to avoid having this problem in the future, so I was wondering if there is any way to set up the server so that it requests for a new ip address automatically.

I just been given a project to compile code to run under Red Hat Enterprise Desktop 5.3.
Does anyone know if Red Hat sells older versions of Red Hat Enterprise Desktop? RHEL 6 was just released last month. As I understand it, code compiled under RHEL 6 will probably not work under 5.3 due to difference in glibc.
Can I compile code using a Fedora distribution and run the code under Red Hat Enterprise Desktop 5.3 without recompiling the code? If so, does Fedora offer older versions of their distribution?

But i can under an alternate profile. Running ubuntu 10.04 and cannot seem to pin point the problem. When I was doing some looking into it, it appeared that the wpa-supplicant.conf wasn't where the man page indicated it should be. ie /etc/, but then it wouldn't or shouldn't work for the other profile either, right? i tried to post this before but i couldn't find it anywhere.
