Good evening, Neuby

When you boot into rescue mode are you given the option to 
continue-mount or read-only-mount the system to /mnt/sysimage?  You 
could try to view /mnt/sysimage/etc/fstab to find the partition types.

My apologies, Fidel.  I didn't pick up on that when I read your post.

Install yum-utils, which will provide reposync.

Of course install the rpmforge repo RPM.

For an initial download:

# reposync -g -r rpmforge -p /local/destination/directory

The man page is pretty straightforward, you should be able to whip up a 
cron job to keep the local repo up to date.

Hello everyone,

I was, of course, a numbnut for suggesting this.  I don't normally LVM 
the / partition, so I didn't think of it.  I'll try to, er, open my mind 
out of my environment for future helpful suggestions.

Actually, the thread was an example of why I don't LVM /.  I think it 
adds another layer I'd rather not have to deal with when things go 
casters up.  But that is just My Way and it is not The Only Way.

Not a knock on Neuby, since it wasn't installed by him.

How goes the battle, by the way?

Hello Carlos,

When named is running:

- Is port 53 listening?
- Can you telnet into that port from another server?
- Can you lookup (dig) your own domain or a remote domain from the server?
- Were either xinetd or iptables updated or changed?

key "rndc-key" {
 algorithm hmac-md5;
 secret "";
};
