Im using Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) version 5.Im SAP administration system, and I m stuck in prerequisite check, what I have to ensure, before installation of sap system, is check if the S.O. red hat have installed some things that are required... which are some package and groups/categories... I dont have any experience in Linux and so I ask for help please how can I know, from Terminal command line which packages are installed in this S.O. and more I want to know whats mean "Categories / Groups", because I read in a sap note that mandatory to have installed some categories / groups which are for instance:

I just installed a fresh copy of RHEL 5.4 64-bit on a new machine, taking default configuration during the setup process. Then I realized we need to install SNMP on it. I found the following packages on the RHEL DVD and tried to install them, using both the Red Hat GUI for package installation and also through the command "rpm -i {package_name.rpm}". But I am getting dependency errors. The dependent components are not found on the DVD even though I have it inserted in the drive. Can someone advise how I can add SNMP to an existing RHEL machine?
Packages I tried to add:
net-snmp-5.3.2.2-7.el5.x86_64.rpm
net-snmp-devel-5.3.2.2-7.el5.x86_64.rpm
net-snmp-libs-5.3.2.2-7.el5.x86_64.rpm
net-snmp-perl-5.3.2.2-7.el5.x86_64.rpm

I already know of a work around to fix this problem, but I guess my question is why is this not working as expected? I am using a Windows Server 2008 R2 Active Directory for authentication.
I have run auth-client-config for the ldap profile and pam-auth-update. When running getent passwd, I get a list of both the local users and the users in the active directory (with populated information in the Unix schema extension). When running getent group I get a list of both the local groups and the groups in the active directory (with populated information in the Unix schema extension).
Interestingly enough, though, when I run su DOMAINUSER, after the prompt for the password I get an authentication error. In /var/log/auth.log I can see an entry with pam_ldap: missing "host" in file "/etc/ldap.conf". The SRV records in the DNS servers resolve correctly. I've checked this with nslookup and I have seen the records within my zone file. Obviously if the ldap.conf file is working with getent and the ldap server is resolving from the SRV records, it is working fine.
The interesting part is that the Windows Server 2008 R2 AD machine shows in the event viewer that there was a successful authentication, yet the Ubuntu box says no. When I add the host within the ldap.conf file, everything works...getent and the actual authentication, either initial login or su.

I ran into some errors while installing Oracle Grid Control on RHEL 5.4. I believe I need to install some packages. Where is the right place to download packages for RHEL? I would prefer binary code. Also, I downloaded a source file somewhere. Can you please tell me how to build and install it?

Having trouble installing packages on a RHEL5 box, when trying to list packages etc I get an error saying: "This system is not registered with RHN. RHN support will be disabled."
Does this mean I can't install packages? This is a licenced copy of RHEL. The reason being I need to install VMware tools on this machine for the memory management facility in VMWARE ESX. I Dont think the fact its running on ESX has anything to do with the error. what I am restricted to, and if I have the licence for this how I can register to enable the use of YUM?

I am currently trying to set up a Samba domain server. In the Samba-HOWTO-Collection I found an
example file.(Point 3.3.3.1) In the explanations of the example below, the author says I need to map UNIX Groups to NT Groups. He writes a shell-script of how one could do it, but when I copy it and then execute it, I get the error:
Bad option: rid=512
Bad option: rid=513
Bad option: rid=514
The other groups do get mapped, just the Domain Admins, Domain Users and Domain Guests dont. This is the shell from the HOWTO:
#!/bin/bash
#### Shell-Skript f ̈r sp ̈tere Verwendung aufbewahren
net groupmap modify ntgroup="Domain Admins" unixgroup=ntadmins rid=512
net groupmap modify ntgroup="Domain Users" unixgroup=users rid=513
net groupmap modify ntgroup="Domain Guests" unixgroup=nobody rid=514

So i am at the stage of about to install the basic system and am using a derivation of the package management provided by Matthias S. Benkmann. To this end I am using his useradd and groupadd scripts to update the files:
/etc/passwd
/etc/group
My issue is that when I run the commands(created as part of temporary system when installing coreutils):
Code:
/tools/bin/su linux
#then as user
/tools/bin/groups
(here linux is the name of the user) This only returns the user being in the group named after user but not the additional group of 'install' Also, prior to logging in as user, if I use this command as root:
Code:
/tools/bin/groups linux
linux install This then returns that the user is in the correct groups. Lines from relevant files look like:
Code:
#/etc/passwd
linux:x:10000:10000::/usr/src/build:/bin/bash
#/etc/group

recently I installed gDesklets with some minor problems that I fixed along the way.. But now that it finally works, I don't see all the categories? For example, the System/CPU category is missing etc.. Here is a screenshot of gDesklets Shell open:So, the problem is that it's not showing all the categories needed.. So, any advice? Edit #1: I found out that what I was looking for was the SideCandy things from gDesklets.. And I tried Screenlets, but it doesn't have what I need and the look is not really me..PS. If anyone could tell me what "desklets" these are: [URL]- I would really appreciate it! The theme is Mira, but I tried installing it, but it didn't really change a lot of my main Ubuntu theme, and it didn't install the desklets

A browser extension is a computer program that extends the functionality of a web browser in some way. Depending on the browser, the term may be distinct from similar terms such as plug-in or add-on. Mozilla Firefox was designed with the idea of being a small and simple web browser, delegating more advanced functions to Mozilla extensions.Question: may all programs be classified into these two categories?: Firefox plugins or extensions and external (to firefox) programs? If so, what of these two is the category into which gxine falls?I could, maybe, manage to make mplayer the default player for .pls files sent over internet by radio statios..

I want to find some interesting games but the complete list looks a bit daunting. I can search the web for this information but what would be even better is if I could search a category in order of popularity. Is there a way to do this? Categories can be found here: [URL]
If not, is there a way I can find a list of packages in textlist format (like here: [URL]) for each category (rather than a complete list)?

just getting startedin linux <fedora9> and haveseveral questions. first what bookwould be best to start the learning process? have looked at fedora 9 and enterprise and the newest fedora 10 with enterprise and these seem to be aimed at networking setups which I do not have.also in adding users and groups which I have done I think successfully however when I use the newgrp command and try to access a file I have saved under a group with two members the file does not show in the ls command.
users are jevans in group programmers cevans in group programmers in creating the file I didthe newgrp programmers command and created the filein the cevans spotand changed to jevans and negrp programmers and the filedoes not show.so what do I do here, or is my understaning of this incorrect?

I'm setting up a Fedora 11 server for the company of one of my friends. So far so good. But now he has asked me to setup access restrictions to folders through samba. Now I'm quite familiar with user access policies, even though I'm quite new to the GNU/Linux world. What I want to know is : what is the best way to give and remove, on the go, rwx access for a specific user to a certain folder in a linux system? Can I create groups for each folders, whose members will have the given permissions? Or do I have to create users for each folder and add to their group the user witch i want to give privilege to?

I recently upgraded from F13 to F14 using "preupgrade". This is the first time I've used preupgrade. So far, F14 is running OK. There are some leftovers from F13 and I'm wondering if this is correct.
Q1: There are 176 F13 packages remaining. [alfrugal@localhost Documents]$ rpm -qa | grep fc13 | wc -l 176 Is this OK? FWIW, after the upgrade, I ran "package-cleanup --orphans" as recommended by the "preupgrade" page on the Fedora Project wiki.
Q2: Also, my GRUB menu was correctly updated for F14, but it still contains the three entries it had for F13. Is it normal for the preupgrade process to require the user to clean up the obsolete entries from the GRUB menu?

I have searched for days on Google and can't find a clear answer to my question. I have a NT4 PDC which I am migrating to Samba 3 (Version 3.4.2-47.fc12) on FC12 with kernel(2.6.31.5-127.fc12.i686). I am using tdbsam as my passdb backend.I setup Samba as a BDC and then joined to NT4 Domain succesfully. When I go to vampire the accounts I get lots of errors and some user accounts get transfered over. It turns that all the user accounts that transfer are those that don't have a capital letter in their username on the NT4 domain server. Most do and don't get transfered. There seems to be errors with my groups and Computer accounts.Is there a way to change the requirements in Fedora 12 for username, groups and computernames?

I've just installed Fedora 14 x64 and had a few problems. I have a GT9800 video card and after installation x wouldn't start untill I added xdriver-vesa nomodeset to the kernel line. Anyway I've just got it to the point where it will actually boot but wasn't asked to create a user - the live cd installation only asked for root user password. So I used useradd to create a user and I'm finally at the desktop. My question now before I go about installing the nvidia driver is can someone confirm which groups my user should belong to. I haven't used Fedora since FC3 so I can't remember.

I installed F14, then dropped in my passwd, group, and shadow from F9 w/o backing up
what F14 had done. So now I get some messages about missing users like rtkit
and missing groups.
Is there an easy way to find out what default users and groups F14 would have installed?
