Solid Database question

2003-07-08 Thread Leonard Miller
Hi,
has anybody had any experience using a Solid database 
on Redhat?  I am considering pulling my HP OpenView
database over to my RH system and doing some custom
development with it.

Thanks

ip command line question

2003-07-08 Thread Stephen Liu
Hi all folks

On issuing following command

# ip addr
1: lo:  mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
inet 127.0.0.1/8 brd 127.255.255.255 scope host lo
2: eth0:  mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 100
link/ether 00:50:fc:39:3b:59 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
3: ppp0:  mtu 1492 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen
3
link/ppp
inet 202.123.68.48 peer 202.123.71.254/32 scope global ppp0

What does point 3. above indicate?

What command line to be issued to find the current ip address assigned
by ISP (broadband)?

Thanks in advance.

B.Regards

It indicates that you are connecting to the net via the Point to Point
Protocol. And this is usually used with some sort of DSL.

Actually the ip address is in point 3:
"inet 202.123.68.48 peer 202.123.71.254/32 scope global ppp0"
This inet line tells you your ip address, 202.123.68.48

You system time/date is set to zero.

You can use the "date" command to set it to the correct time.

  date [MMDDhhmm]

Like this:  date 07081655

for July 8, 4:55 PM

With no arguments date displays the current time.

what kernel to choose?

2003-07-08 Thread Stephen Mah
I have a dell two way running 1000mhz Pentium IIIs. It has a gig of ram. 
I'm looking to upgrade  the kernel to the latest errata stable version.

I'm currently running 2.4.7-10smp on RH 7.2.

I'm looking at the redhat site, and I see many choices:

kernel-bigmem, kernel-smp, kernel-enterprise, etc...

Are they pretty much the same kernel, but optimized for specific hardware?

thank you.

 You want kernel-smp*i686.rpm.  (IE kernel-smp-2.4.20-18.7.i686.rpm) 
Bigmem, and enterprise are really the same, and are only useful to 
people with more than 4G of memory.

Re: ssh key type ?

2003-07-08 Thread Gordon Messmer
Allan M. Stewart wrote:
   I'm curious if there is any clear cut preference in choosing
RSA or DSA keys. 
I believe that DSA is more resistant to current theoretical attacks.

   I have been using DSA since this guarantees a connection under
protocol version 2.
RSA1 keys are different than RSA2 keys.  It doesn't matter if you use 
"rsa" or "dsa" as your key type; it will only work for ssh2.  Only 
"rsa1" keys work for ssh1.

Also, I seem to recall (but now can't find) that there was some question
about RSA copyright. 
It was patents which posed a problem.  Those patents are up, and there 
is no longer a problem.

For my purposes, the main use will be for batch jobs of scp. 
If you're security minded, it's more important to tie the key to the job 
than to pick the right key, I think.  For instance, if you want to copy 
files from one system to another, generate a key on the source, and 
install the public key on the destination with a "command" option like this:

command="scp -t /var/www/html/index.html" ssh-rsa .
(on the client, use "scp -i  new-index.html \
destination.host:/var/www/html/index.html" )
or:

command="rsync --server -a . /var/www/html/" ssh-rsa .
(on the client, use "rsync -a -e 'ssh -i ' \
/var/www/html/ destination.host:/var/www/html/" )
