i am bit confused about /Usr /Var /Boot partitions, as i need to manage perfectly in 130 GB
if i go with 4 Gb swap and remaining for " / " is that will be fine ? should i need to specify partition sizes separately for / tmp /var / usr ..

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have 3 Ubuntu installations & a PCLINUXOS, plus Windows XP installed on one hard disk. I still can boot to each one of them and can mount each one using Ubuntu.
The problem "may" have occurred when I reduced the size of some linux partitions using gparted. I still have plenty of space in each of those partitions.
When I started gparted all of the HD was unallocated. I did that from each ubuntu installation and the PCLINUX installation, plus LIVECDs. All indicated the space was unallocated.
When I did an fdisk -l from a Puppy Linux LiveCD I got a normal start and ends of each partition.
When I tried it from Ubuntu installation or live cd, I received the following types of responses:
Code:
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda5
Disk /dev/sda5: 28.5 GB, 28566397440 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3473 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo fdisk -u /dev/sda5
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 3473.There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK) Plus the Windows partition seems to go over its limits.
Since all of my OS installations are still working, I don't know how critical this is. From reading another post, I understand this might be able to be fixed by making some changes in fstab.
I am trying to implement a NAS running Debian to replace the Windows 2003 file server.We implemented the system and we integrated it with the active directory. Is it possible to manage the access rights using windows tools and get the same amount of detail(not the right word) on access.As an example, we have the following folder structure:
Teams&Projects All users list, admins full
Team1 All users list, admins full, some users modify
Project1 All users no access, admins full, some modify, some list
I have read some articles on the internet that this is possible but I do not have enough information to implement this.
Installation of CVS on Redhat linux
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 ".
It doesn't output like "2401/tcp open cvspserver"

Want to access usb drive in redhat enterprise linux
View 2 Replies View RelatedIm 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.
