View 1 Repliesis possible to edited the default RHEL CD to have it automatically install RHEL based off of a kickstart file that I will store locally on the CD. My plan would be to put a cd in a server and have the OS automatically being installed.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a database server running RHEL 5.1 32 bit that suffered some catastrophic failures about 6 months ago. We were able to patch it back together and keep it running, but now the manufacturing site it supports is going to shut down for two weeks and I would like to replace it permenantly. Does anyone have any guidance for that sort of thing? I'd like to have the new server up and running before hand, basically changing the hostname/ip and restoring the databases only on conversion day. I've done this in the past with HP UX - Red Hat conversions, but this is my first red hat to red hat move. Any advice or shortcuts?I forgot to add the other wrinkle. The new server will be running 64bit linux.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm planing to get 4 dedicated, remote servers for my start up, the question I have is: how to do only one installation and then duplicate or clone this installation into all the other machines. I could install those 4 servers manually, but the problem is - we have a lot of things that our application needs, and later there will be more servers. So an automatic way to do that would be better. We are using Debian. Perhaps there's a way to create a "big package" that will contain all of the necessary software in it, then simply require from the hosting provider that all of our servers come with Debian installed, and then manually upload the "big package" and install it?

Now we are wanting to create a new 11.2 server that is basically a backup / clone of 1st server in case it goes down.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a bunch of computers with the same configuration, so I would like to install Ubuntu only to one master computer and later on just copy the partition layout and the filesystem unto other computers. Previously I was able to simply copy the partition layout (via the sfdisk utility), the filesystem (a simple "cp -a") and install Grub (via script). Now I had to use the parted utility to partition the 2TB drive and Grub2 is the default boot loader.
My questions are now:
1. How do I copy the partition layout from /dev/sda (master) to /dev/sdb (clone)?
2. How do I batch install install Grub2 to the other disk (e.g. /dev/sdb) ?
In Grub 0.97 it used to be something like that:
Code:
# GRUB the disk
grub --no-floppy --batch <<EOF_GRUB
root ($GRUB,0)
setup ($GRUB)
quit
EOF_GRUB .....
In Grub 2 I tried with:
Code:
grub-install --force --root-directory=/mnt/sdb1/ /dev/sdb
Only to get this error: .....
The Grub2 syntax is way different compared to Grub0.97. Yes, I do could use the Grub2-suggested option but since the partition layouts on both partitions are equal, I see little point in setting the BIOS Boot Partition option, since the master computer works without it and I don't remember any error message during the install.
if there is available SLES clone out there. Like Red Hat Enterprise Linux = CentOS?

I cannot ssh into an RHEL 5.5 server (192.168.20.104) from another RHEL 5.5 server (192.168.20.101) unless server debug is turned on 192.168.20.104, and even then, I have to wait several minutes before the connection is established. scp to and from the 104 server is also not working.Here is the debug output on the 101 server when server debug is not enabled on the 104 server-:

Having some issues setting up sendmail on a (basically) blank RHEL 5.5 server setup. My ultimate goal is to be able to automagically send logs / errors / notifications to ourselves from the server.
Our basic setup is a Win 2003 domain with exchange running on mail.domain.com.au.
I've edited the '/etc/mail/sendmail.mc' and added the :
Code:
line to it.
Also added the domain (domain.com.au) to the '/etc/mail/local-host-names' files
Also edited submit.mc and added
Code:
When I try and send a mail from root or a test user to one of the domain accounts, it seems to go fine, i.e no errors are reported but it never gets delivered.
From the mail logs:
Code:
So it seems to be sent to the queue no problems and when I check the queue :
Code:
Total requests: 0
Not nothing ever gets received. Am I missing something? I have read and read and read but dont seem to be getting any furthur.
So in the end this server doesn't need to do anything except be able to send mail from root to an external mail address.
In oreder to run an application software on RHEL 3 ES server, I created a link forcefully using following command from root id:
# cd /lib64/tls/
# ln -sf libc-2.3.4.so libc.so.6
before that I copied file libc-2.3.4.so from a workstation with OS RHEL 4 WS so that a link can be created.
Now I am unable to run any command except cd & pwd and it gives error messaage as given below:
ls:relocation error:/lib64/tls/libc.so.6:symbol _rtld_global_ro,version GLIBC_PRIVATE not defined in file ld-linux-x86-64.so.2with link time reference.
Before running this command libc.so.6 was pointing to libc-2.3.so file in path /lib64/libc-2.3.2.so.
I am now unable even to open a new window on the server.Please send me some solution as early as possible because this server is running production data and many users are runnig application on this server.
we are running a Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3 (Taroon Upd 5) Kernel 2.4.21-32.ELsmp since several years. The server hosts an old ERP system who will be replaced at the end of the year.However it is necessary that some collegues are able to write some files to that server regulary. Since we are running Windows 7 on several machines, those users aren't anymore able to write to the samba share. Getting files from the share works fine.
But the problem seems not to be situated at the samba service because also the transfer using SSH (WINSCP) from any Win7 system to the server doesn't work.During testing we recogniced that transfering files smaller then 1kb works fine ... any file greater then 1kb ends up in an connection abort. This works with samba and also using SSH.All the workarounds editing some registry entries in Win7 for improving the interoperability between vista / win7 and samba don't work for us ... and also seem not to be the source of the problem.Is there a general known incompatibility between our RHEL version / kernel and Windows 7 regarding file transfers?
I have a RHEL 5 server with 32 bit architechture that is not recognizing more that 4 GB of RAM and I am trying to locate a version of the kernel-PAE package that will work well with the 2.6.18-53 kernel. I found something on Open VZ called ovzkernel-PAE that is built for the 2.6.18-53 kernel [URL]
and wanted to find out if there were any known issues with this release before I attempted to install it. Is anyone aware of any issues with any rpms on openvz.org or with this particular rpm in general?
I have a RedHat box that I have configured, security, audit rules, latest updates, etc. I want to be able to "image" that configuration so I can kick other boxes with that "image", that way no other configuration/updating needs to be done on the newly kicked boxes. What is the best way to accomplish this? To make things more difficult, it would be near to impossible for me to pull any software off the internet for this.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to look at installing the PAE module on a RHEL 5 2.6.18-53 system and I cannot seem to find that around. I had hoped to find out if installing the CentOS 5 2.6.18-128 or 2.6.18-164 kernel-PAE modules would have a lot of negative consequences? Perhaps one of you could direct me to a download site that would provide kernel-PAE for a 2.6.18-53 build?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have seen and tried a lot of web information about issues with VNC and the RHEL 5.x implementation of VNC.
I can't seem to get the behavior I want. Let me explain.
With SLES 10, I can use YaST and with a few clicks end up with a system that when rebooted, accepts VNC viewer connections to :1 and displays the system login screen.
Here I can log in as root or any user. Once logged in, I can choose to use the command line to restart the system if necessary and eventually, I can reconnect with the vncviewer to the system login screen.
RHEL 5.2 has a "share your desktop" setting in preferences which works fine, but requires that I be logged in locally, which prevents remote restarts. There is also a system services dialog that refuses to start vncserver as a service. There are numerous tutorial in the RH knowledge base and the web that explain how to specifically setup individual displays, :1, :2 for specific users and claim that it can work after boot. I have not been able to get these working, but what I really want is a simpler, single display, :1, that will present the RHEL login screen so I can log in as any user I want. I am the only person accessing these servers and they are behind a firewall using secure protocols when remote.
I think Red Hat did not want to make this too easy as VNC users need to consider the security risks. Is there a way to get the SLES 10 VNC approach to work on RHEL 5?
I'm using java socket server program for transaction routing on rhel5. So I make a jar file of server to be run.
Now I need to add my application as a service. I just search in google how to do that, And i found some way and it is bellow,

I have a situation where I want to install various versions of RHEL on removable drive. My first option was a flash drive or an external USB hard disk, but its speed is too slow.Now I have been assigned a task to search for more options about this requirement. If anybody has experience in installing the same, then please share with me.
