Chaps, I'm trying to install the digest-MD5 module on an AS 3./0 server and am having a wee problem.
perl Makefile.PL generates a Makefile, but if you look at it,there are bits missing, values that have quotes at the beginning but nothing at the end etc.
Basically the generated Makefile isn't usable. This is using version 2.33 of the module
Anybody managed to get it working?

I'm having an issue with egrep on Fedora Core 3.
Historically on SunOS, Solaris and RedHat 7.3 we've always used egrep-2.2.  However, Fedora Core 3 comes with egrep-2.5.1 and it doesn't seem to work anymore and I can't figure out why.
The line:
/bin/egrep -B1 '^[A-z][A-z0-9]*[     ]*(\(.*\))' 
Is what's causing us problem.  I don't know much regex but I've traced it down to that one line.  Can someone tell me how to make this work with egrep-2.5.1 so I can use the system installed grep/egrep/fgrep and now have to worry about private copies of stuff.
Thanks,
-brian

Hello,
I have this X configuration in my kickstart file.
xconfig --depth=16 --resolution=1024x768 --defaultdesktop=KDE --startxonboot (used kickstart configurator to generate the line).
Nothing special or am I missing something?
Installation starts, but then I get a screen full of errors about anaconda and monitor display (etc) and this is the last line:
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'split'
Installation stops. I Reboot the machine.
At best I remove the xconfig line and the install goes ahead and asks questions about X setup at the end of the installation.
Thank you for any help,
James Harrison

This is the RedHat list not the Fedora list!
The problem might be with unicode.  
The regex is wrongly constructed anyway `A-z' should be `A-Za-z'. 
(Even though A-z works in ascii - with a few extra characters
thrown in - it's not going to work in every language locale).
To see if unicode is the problem you could try this:
   export LC_ALL=C
then run your script.  (Or put the line at the top of your script).

Hi all,

Have configured squid proxy on Red Hat 8.0 and I can able to access internet fine.
This server is directly on internet with valid IP. 
Now I have installed another network card and configured IP address for local LAN.

First question. Is it required to configure ipchains or iptables to access internet via this proxy server?? it is so please mail me how to do that...

Second question. If you know with out using ipchains or iptables we can do that please let me know.

Third Question. Do we need to add any route manually to do that and what will be entry in /etc/defaultrouter file when we have configured both network cards.

Requsting your help on this above matter...

Thanks

This is a well known error under RH9. I had the same while installing an
FlexLM stand alone server for ANSYS. I looked at the vendor's homepage
and found some helpful hints - but I can't find them anymore on their
website. Maybe I looked to slightly ;) However, I store always all pages
I needed during an installation (because of license texts and so) and
here are some infos from my archive (17 Oct 2003):
RedHat 9.0 is not yet supported by FlexLM. When lmgrd is invoked the
following error message appears: "Incorrectly built binary which
accesses errno, h_errno or _res directly. Needs to be fixed."
The above error message is due to an incompatibility between the FLEXlm
lmgrd binary and the GLibC version 2.3 libary from RedHat 9. The site:
http://www.rsinc.com/services/techtip.asp?ttid=3496 provides the
following explanation and workaround:
"To address this error message, replace the file lmgrd in the /idl/bin
subdirectory with the latest version of the file (Intel Linux Glibc 2.3,
Redhat v5.x), available from
http://www.macrovision.com/solutions/esd/flexlm/lmgrd.shtml#unixdownload
This page doesn't exists anymore. Try the Web-Archive to view it (Even
the download files seem to be stored on this server!):
http://web.archive.org/web/20030812082130/http://www.macrovision.com/solutions/esd/flexlm/lmgrd.shtml
Once the new binary for the license manager launches, the system may
still display the above error message twice. However, the license
manager administers available licenses correctly."
~From the old FlexLM homepage:
Recommended Procedure for Starting lmgrd on UNIX Systems
Any normal, non-privileged user (non-root user) can start lmgrd.
Security experts recommend that users and administrators avoid running
daemons as root - when such daemons do not require root privileges.
Since lmgrd does not require root privileges, we recommend you do not
start lmgrd as root.
To start lmgrd from a system startup script try this stripped-down code.
All paths are absolute paths to the particular files.

Hmm, doesn't seem to work...

RedHat official support says USB modems are not supported.  But I have

Thanks for all the extra info, Stu and Ed.
What do you mean by "rebuilds"? Where can I find more info on Tao, and
rebuilds?
We would love to purchase one copy of RHEL and then somehow distribute
it to other machines without violating licences.

Use iptables: they have statefull inspection (a good thing).

You can't do this.  If you license one copy of RHEL, then you need to
license them all.  You can run as many copies of the forks/rebuilds as
you want.
