I know UDP is much much better for DNS resolution but because of so many issues an restrictions, I need to use TCP instead, is this really possible and how can I do it? I'm running Centos 5.5 and all I want is that ANY DNS query uses TCP instead of udp.
View 3 RepliesI just installed ubuntu 9.10 32-bit on my parents computer. My dad was having this weird problem where it would only randomly allow him to log in every few tries. Let's say every 1 out of 12 tries.
I believe I have figured what is keeping him from logging in. Only on his user is there an issue with logging in. Only on his desktop have I turned the screen resolution down. From 1152 to 1024.
The usual sequence goes like this -
- I choose his user
- I enter his correct password
- It appears to be logging in, half the log in sound happens and the splash screen runs for 6 or so seconds
- The splash screen flickers between a 1152 and 1024 resolution
- Reverts back to the log in screen, his desktop is never visible.
any ideas on how to fix this? The computer in question is a Compaq Presario circa 2000-2001 if that makes any difference. I have not looked into the video card make yet
I have a problem with the screen resolution in that most of the time it defaults to 800 x 600. However on occasions when I switch on the resolution increases however just today when it happened after typing in my password it refused to log me in.
Before anyone asks my password is in lower case and the NUMLOCK is off and I know I'm not mis-typing it.
here's the strange bit, when I reset the computer and the resolution goes back to 800 x 600 it then accepts my password. go figure!
I recently installed Deluge 1.2.0 from the following PPA:[URL]I using this on two different Linux computers. One is running Linux Mint 8 and the other is running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10. The first time on either computer when I enable WebUI in the Deluge GUI it works fine. However if I ever disable it in plugins section I am subsequently unable to re-enable it (doesn't appear in the side panel again). Rebooting or reinstalling Deluge seems to have no effect.Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

After that everything works fine untill i shutdown and restart my laptop. I would like a way to change this so that my wifi connection is working whithout having to click something first..

I just upgraded to natty last night, and everything is working fine except for the network manager. I can enable and configure the wireless card via bash, but the network manager widget will not manage the wireless card.
When I first boot up, the "Enable wireless" check box is greyed out. After I enable the card via the terminal, the "Enable wireless" check box becomes ungreyed, but every time I click it, it instantly unchecks itself. I feel like Currly from the Three Stoogies. Check, uncheck, Check, uncheck.. "Slaps face repeatedly."
I had the elrepo kmod-r8168 driver running smooth for a while on my development box.
Yesterday, I did a clean install on it and when I tried to install the latest kmod-r8168 rpm, it failed to enable the networking support:
# yum --enablerepo=elrepo install kmod-r8168
The install performed all proper steps to disable the 8169 driver, I double checked to be sure.This is not a connectivity issue. If I remove the kmod-r8168 rpm, reboot the server and run the ifconfig eth0 up to activate the interface, everything works as expected. I use the latest kernel (2.6.18-194.26.1.el5 x86_64).
First, I performed a clean install, activated the eth0 and did a yum update, then installed the kmod-r8168 with yum. Then, I reinstalled the OS again, activated the eth0 and installed the kmod-r8168 on a 5.5 CD based kernel, same fail results. The only hiccup is: every time I start the box, I have to activate the eth0 interface (with default CentOS 8169 driver):
# ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.3
# ping -c 3 192.168.1.1 (no packets lost)
# ifconfig eth0 up
Once I do this, I have network connectivity.
I've been experiencing a problem with Fedora in which when I enable Wireless in Fedora, Wireless networking does not work in windows. HOwever, when disabled, it works correctly. Windows claims it is "not able to find any networks to connect to"
EDIT: It seems that when wireless is disabled manually on fedora before shutdown, there are no problems in windows.
My wireless can connect to my router without a problem, but in order to do so (after boot) I must first disable networking in the Notification Area and then re-enable it. I don't mind it too much, but when other people use my computer, it's made painfully obvious to me, that this was never an issue with Windows 7 (as much as I despise MS).

View 1 Replies View RelatedHow do I enable networking in Debian? I just installed Debian on my iMac 7.1 (which works perfectly well with ubuntu - but I'd like to get away from ubuntu because it seems to be targeting teenagers now which is only going to get worse). I used the latest daily build of the netinstall CD and had the network configured with DHCP, but now I find I have to enter my root password (login password will not do) to activate the network.
Of course, coming from ubuntu I disabled root login during install. I have to say, so far my impression of Debian isn't so good. For starters, to be able to boot at all I had to look for my refit CD which I hadn't used in ages because I don't need it in ubuntu. Also scrolling is wonky, like with the realtime kernel in ubuntu. How do I enable root login, or more to the point, how do I get by in Debian without enabling root login? I am not a systematic person at all, and one day I'm bound to forget that I'm root when I go online.
We have on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS installed on one m/c which is connected to office network using pptp vpn.Now i want to enable ip-forwarding on this m/c so that i can connect my RH9 m/c through this. For enabling ip forwarding i did the basic thing "echo "1">/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward" And added route on the RH m/c as route add -net 10.254.254.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.1.10 dev eth0" (IP of Ubuntu m/c is "192.168.1.10 and RH m/c is 192.168.1.15) But some how ip-forwarding is not working properly.

I am a day old in ubuntu-world, and I am having internet issues. Yesterday, after i had installed ubuntu alongside windows 7. To begin with it did not detect wireless (not networks but wireless itself), so i figured it was something to do with the adapter and came to these forums where many things were suggested. none worked. So I restarted the system for good measure and lo and behold it detected wireless networks and connected to the internet almost immediately.
Now, after a day, when i have logged in to ubuntu again, there is no wireless detected. The same problem. When I right click on the network icon in the notification area i see that Enable Networking is checked but "Enable Wireless" is darkened. There is no way to check it.
Can anybody please advise as to what to do next. I am using ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx I believe).My system config is i7, 512MB ram.
