Networking :: Cannot Unload Or Blacklist Bcm43xx On Redhat Enterprise Server?
Jan 21, 2010
I installed Redhat nash version 5.1.19.6 with kernel 2.6.18-128.el5-xen-i686 on a Dell Inspiron 1300 with Broadcom BCM4401 (eth0/LAN) and BCM4318 (eth1/WLAN). eth0 is working fine, but eth1 was causing trouble. After some difficulties with missing packages I managed to install ndiswrapper, blacklisted module bcm43xx in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and removed it, loaded module ndiswrapper and had connection. But after reboot module bcm43xx was again loaded. So blacklisting does not seem to work.And additionally strange to me, I cannot unload module bcm43xx anymore. And if I load ndiswrapper driver bcm43xx is still used as the terminal command 'dmesg' is showing me in the system log, while ndiswrapper was used when the connection was once and only once established
Installing CVS on Redhat Linux Redhat Enterprise 4.0
The following steps give simple steps to install CVS software on Redhat Enterprise Linux 4.0.
1) Download the tarball cvs-1.11.1p1.tar.gz 2) Run "gunzip cvs-1.11.1p1.tar". You will get file called cvs-1.11.1p1.tar. 3) Then extract this file using command "tar -xvf cvs-1.11.1p1.tar". 4) Then go to directory cvs-1.11.1p1. 5) There you will find a file called INSTALL. Read it once carefully. 6) Now run the command "./configure." 7) Build it using the command "make". 8) Install binaries/documentation using command "make install". 9) Now open file called /etc/services and add the following lines. Cvspserver 2401/tcp # CVS client/server operations cvspserver 2401/udp # CVS client/server operations 10) Open file called /etc/xinetd.conf and add the following lines to that file. service cvspserver { Port = 2401 socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = root passenv = server = /opt/bin/cvs server_args = --allow-root=/home/cvs -f pserver env = HOME=/home/cvs log = /var/log/cvslog } 11) Space on both sides of = in the above file is a must. 12) Restart xinetd services by running command " services xinted restart " 13) Check whether CVS is running on the port 2401 by using the following command "nmap IP |grep 2401". If the CVS server is running correctly it will give output as "2401/tcp open cvspserver ".
I have a problem in connecting from windows xp OS to the REDHAT LINUX through vncviewer. The first connection works fine. However, if I want to add more than one connection by establishing the hostname:2 through vncviewer, it stops working. I have tried modifying the file /etc/sysconfig/vncservers to add more than one allowable connections. It still fails...
at work place I have an HP ProLiant DL580 with RedHat Enterprise Server 5.4 x64. Today I cloned this machine using clonezilla. What I would like to do is restore the image to VMWare machine for personal purpose (I cannot perform tests on production machine). But after restoring on VMWare I got "Kernel Panic". That's normal due to different hardware.
Now, is there a way to remove the Kernel Panic and correctly boot the machine? I ask our tech department for the RedHat CD1 to enter the "linux rescue" enviromnent, then try to re-read the hardware list with
just set up a windows server and other windows boxes send alerts to it no problem.Yesterday I configured my linux box (RHEL 5) using /etc/sysconfig/syslog and /etc/syslog.conf so that all alerts would go to the syslog server.There are no external firewalls involved and while the firewall is working on my linux boxI have made sure port 514 TCP/UDP are let through.Ive checked syslogd and klogd are running.I've also applied the '*@10.20.30.40' line in etc/syslog.conf. Basically Id like everything to go to the syslog server.Now if I telnet to the syslog server on port 514 I can type text on the linux box and it comes through on the syslog server. Great - but no syslog alerts seem to come through normally, even when I reboot the box.I've tried *., .*, and * to no avail, ive got an entry in my hosts file for the server 10.20.30.40 and tried using a name instead of an ip address, no luck.

Im am working on a system which runs on RedHat Enterprise I have been asked by superiors to see if the following is possible. (sudoers file config change i guess)
Example User1 has root access user2 has root access, but must not be able to access ctmag (user account)
I know the obvious here is that if user2 can switch to root then it won't work. But i just need to prevent user2 from su - ctmag. A password is set on the account ctmag, but as user2 has root access it switches without a password prompt
Is there anyway i can prevent user2 from switching to ctmag but still have access to root?

I am a first timer in setting up a mail server. As I heard that Postfix is a very simple mail server to configure I decided to use it on the same server where we have our squid. It seems that it is really simple enough because immediately after configuring,I can send and receive internal e-mails and send external emails. As I replied to the external emails that I received myself I found out that all of them just landed on the mail queue and this is where my problem starts. I cannot make Postfix deliver the messages to my outlook mailbox. By the way, I am sending the emails the through outlook also.
