Re: GGoogle chat vs Skype

2011-09-27 Thread Aaron Gray
Hi Guys,

This is well worth looking at, it was GNU SIP Communicator :-

http://jitsi.org/

It supports lots of formats, including Facebook, Google and Skype I believe.

MySQL not working with PHP

2010-09-11 Thread Aaron Gray
I have an F11 system.

I have several PHP apps that use MySQL including MediaWiki but they are
failing to work giving error 500

phpinfo() is working and showing MySQL.

When I try to connect to it I get the following error :-

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (13)

Have have done a 'service mysqld start' and the 'mysql' command line looks
fine.

Many thanks in advance,

Aaron

It was a fresh installed machine that has been a dormant rsync'ed mirrored
machine. Unfortunately I am not sure it ever worked.

PHP Version 5.2.13
*mysql-5.1.37-1.fc11.i586*

/etc/init.d/mysqld not installed on F12 machine

2010-09-12 Thread Aaron Gray
I don't seem to be having any luck with Fedora and MySQL on multiple
machines at the moment.

MySQL does not seem to be installed on my F12 machine.

I have done a :-

   yum install mysql

but /etc/init.d/mysqld and friends are not installed.

Is there a separate package that installs them ?

Help,

Fedora on HP ProLiant DL140 G3 Dual Core Xeon 2.33Ghz SATA Server

2011-03-13 Thread Aaron Gray
I am looking at buying a HP ProLiant DL140 G3 and am wondering what the
support on Fedora for this is like.

Does latest or still supported Fedora support this hardware ?

If so are there video drivers ?

I found some forum which says it has Matrox G200 video driver.

Many thanks in advance,

PXE instillation of Fedora

2011-03-13 Thread Aaron Gray
Since these HP ProLiant DL150's dont have CD's, I need to do a PXE
instillation from another Fedora box.

Does anyone have a link to proper instructions on how to do this. I have
looked at quite a few instructions but non that outline the Fedora files
necessary to be put under /tftpboot on the server.

Also it says on the ProLiant documentation that you only need tfpd and bootp
and not full DHCP ?

Any advice welcome, particularly if you have done a PXE instillation of
Fedora.

Many thanks in advance,

Ah right, if the ProLiant has DL140 has a USB drive option then that will be
great, many thanks,

I am wondering due to the lack of replies whether servers tend to be

What about the SATA driver ?

Its not really mission critical, I have been running two mirrored old
Fujitsu-Siemens servers for over five years now and thought it about time to
get something new :)

FC4 was 2.6.11, looks like it may have been jettisoned later.

Yes, Anaconda used to detect and load the DAC960 driver on FC4, but post FC4
Kudzu but does not seem to support DAC960 detection any more.

Thanks Alan,

So possible the driver code got broken in newer kernels. I know FC4 used to
use Kudzu and moving to FC5 the detection of the 960's no longer worked in
Anaconda.

How does driver detection work now, is it the same for all Linux distros now
?

Like you said I'll try a live distro and dmsg anyway, and see if that
reveals any more info.

Its more than a couple of years since I removed the RAID cards, the poor old
Primergy 470's servers are not as fast as with the DAC960's.
I would really like to get the DAC960 working again.

F14 not supporting mouse clicks or left mouse button on HP Pavillion laptop

2011-04-01 Thread Aaron Gray
I have just installed F14 LIVE on my HP Pavillion ze4427 laptop mouse
movement works fine but there is no double click tap and the left mouse
button does not work.

F10 used to work fine on it.

Also is there a short cut key combination to get back to the Fedora Gnome
menu in order to shut it down ?

Help,

DAC960 works again on F14. It was still broken on F9, not sure about the
gap.

F14 server

2011-04-01 Thread Aaron Gray
Someone said not to use F14 for servers. What is the reasoning of this if it
is true ?

Surely with SELinux its going to be more secure than other distros ?

Yes, I have run FC4. and FC5 for several years, then FC10 on two mirrored

No complaints in all that time, very good up times.

dhcpd gateway settings

2011-04-22 Thread Aaron Gray
I am trying to set up a network and gateway on 192.168.1.x that I am using
for BOOTP'ing servers.

dhcpd.conf
~~~
allow booting;
allow bootp;
ddns-update-style interim;
ignore client-updates;
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option subnet-mask 255.255.255.0;
option broadcast-address 192.168.1.255;
option routers 192.168.1.1;
option router-discovery true;
option domain-name-servers 8.8.8.8;
range dynamic-bootp 192.168.1.200 192.168.1.240;
next-server 192.168.0.140;
filename "pxelinux.0";
}
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
}
~~

But I cannot seem to get HTTP or other services to work on 192.168.1.x

I have the existing 192.168.0.x network and was wondering how gateway
requests should get from 192.168.1.x to 192.168.0.1 ?

Many thanks in advance,

How do I do that ?

traceroute works that way round but not the other.

I have a Netgear router serving 192.168.0.x and the laptop is at static IP
address 192.168.0.140.

I want the laptop to serve as a gateway between the 192.168.0.x and
192.168.1.x subnets, so it can serve BOOTP and TFTP to provide PXE booting
for diskless servers.

No the Netgear router provides 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.0.140 is the static
IP address of the laptop.

I need DHCP to serve the BOOTP protocol, so static IP's other than the

It needs to be a DHCP server to serve the BOOTP protocol. Also I need to
access HTTP to do netboot.

Yes but it would not be separately serving DHCP on 192.168.1.x.

Just to allow 192.168.1.x to have access to the internet.

Thanks. Yes I really need to learn about the ins and outs of Linux networking.

Okay, it helps if its physically pugged into another ethernet
connection at the other end.

Is there anyway of bringing it up automatically for router like behaviour ?

Creating a Gateway

2011-05-11 Thread Aaron Gray
I now have DHCP working fine and a client attached, but am having
problems adding a gateway.

I have used WebMin to attempt to do it, adding a Static route and
setting the "config as Router" option.

This has added a file :-

$ cat route-eth1
ADDRESS0=192.168.1.0
GATEWAY0=192.168.0.1
NETMASK0=255.255.255.0

have also tried with :-

ADDRESS0=192.168.1.1

but I cannot get the remote computer to ping to 192.168.0.1

Many thanks in advance,

Yes Network Forwarding is enabled.

I have an existing network on 192.168.0.1 served by a Netgear Router,
then a Linux box with two ethernet cards. I am trying to get the
gateway working for the 192.168.1 subnet to be able to see the
internet.

I tried the gateway address as 192.168.0.254 but that did not work either.

Okay, on checking today NetworkManager seems to be running and I am not
getting any Network Connection warning box anymore. So I am presuming this
was a temporary glitch, despite having done two resets and changing the
network adapter.

Still stable an hour later :)

F18: Update problems ?

Hi,

Is anyone experiencing update problems with Fedora at the moment ?

I keep getting restarts and Gnome 3 boot failures into old desktop.

Then restart and I get Gnome 3 again after a restart and then it wants to
do updates again.

And the whole thing goes in a circle.

Sorry I decided to do a netboot reinstall and everything seems fine now.
There maybe a problem with updates from the install DVD or I may have had a

Advice needed on setting up a second DHCP network on separate Ethernet controller with access to internet

2013-01-28 Thread Aaron Gray
Hi,

with the new firewalld and possible changes to Fedora. I need advice on
setting up a second DHCP network on 192.168.01.x on a separate Ethernet
controller with access to internet for http and https and DNS for the
second network from the existing 192.168.0.1 DHCP network and controller.

This is for PXEBOOT'ing new servers. I managed to do this before once on
F14 with the old Fedoras configuration and Shorewall, but could not get it
to work on F16 when I tried again. I am now wanting to do this again on
F18. And would like to ideally do it without Shorewall. And would like to
do a HOWTO to accompany the PXEBOOT HOWTO.

Hope you can help.

Many thanks in advance,

Aaron

"Error: connection activation failed: Device not managed by NetworkManager or unavailable" after moving machine

2013-09-03 Thread Aaron Gray
Hi,

"Error: connection activation failed: Device not managed by
NetworkManager or unavailable"

I am getting the above error and have tried all my normal mods to try
and get a connection.

I did move the SATA drive from one machine to another and back,
changing the MAC address and putting it back in the process.

I have tried adding 'NM_CONTROLLED="yes"' to
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-em1

but still am not able to get it to work.

As I cannot connect to the internet on this device I cannot do any yum
reinstalls.

Hope you can help,

Okay iotop showed ext4's jdb2 to be the process accessing the disk
periodically. btrace did not reveal anything obvious.

Found this bug report which seems to be with lots of different distros, so
its a Linux problem rather than a problem with Fedora :-

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/607560

I have two HP DL140 G3 machines, and multiple swappable drives, two lots of
F14 SATA mirrored drives, one pair with the problem one without, and an F16
pair which also exhibit the problem. The F14 pair without the problem were
installed sometime before the second lot with the problem.

The kernel versions of the two F14 pairs are the same.

I have tried removing all the RPM's from the newer pair exhibiting the
problem but this does not seem to have solved the problem.

I have not tried systemtap yet, should I try this, it seems a bit low level
and I am not sure on how to use it without quite a lot of looking into
things ?

Many thanks in advance,

Please read previous mails.

I have the same problem on F16. I just have two F14 instillations on
swappable drives, one which exhibits the problem and the other that does
not.

libaugeas0 equivalent on Fedora

2015-02-24 Thread Aaron Gray
Hi,

I am using F20 and am wondering if there is an equivalent to Debian's
libaugeas0 or libaugeas ?

Or whether I have to build it for myself ?

Many thanks in advance,

Aaron
