If you want to turn off pass. auth. then change: PasswordAuthentication yes to no, and restart ssh daemon. If your key gets refused, it could be that you have not set restrictive ownership on the .ssh directory, but you should also bear in mind that putty key generator and ssh are not the...

Hello all, I'm having a "challenge" finding solution for sata driver or any solution without recompiling the kernel (Red Hat Ent. Linux 4 Upd. 3) The machine is a remote one (and that is the biggest problem), some Z intellistation as I recall (I'll try to ask somebody for the exact model), which...

So, you want to say that "/80" is a "lie"? Yes, I understand that for example txt file can be compressed to 20% of its original size etc etc, bit that's what "-z" does... Well, thank you both, I was hoping that I have to change some parameter about densities to get 2:1 compression... :-( In...

Yes, you are right - z option is compressing the data, but on software level. "mt -f /dev/stX compression 1" should set the hardware compression with ratio 1:2, so no matter what "-z" does, it should be twice smaller than regular backup. To put it simple: I have 68 gb of movies, installations...

Hello all. I'm having troubles making big tar backup (68GB) on 40/80GB tape, on Red Hat 9. From what I noticed so far, no matter is it HP, IBM or any other tape manufacturer, I have about 20% less of noted capacity. So, on 35/70 I can put only about 28GB. Same with 40/80 GB "Hardware...

Well, to tell you the truth, AIX was in "the second plan", since we are planning migration to linux. "We" have 2 system disks, 36.4 gb each, and they were in raid (1-1 mirror), so now they are separated. One (hdisk1) contains AIX (installed "version 2"), and the other (hdisk0) had AIX shipped...

I did not thank you both for your replies. Genfilt is much like iptables on which I'm used to. So, thank you for your help.

Hello all In short - I'm receiving error code 20ee000b after instalation of fedora 4 for ppc. It is supposed to be the code for "boot image too large", but I found that firmware 3R040323 is supposed to be "enough": http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=775569 Do I have to apply a...

Just to make sure - genfilt is NOT system command? It is a package that needs to be installed / downloaded? Or am I wrong?

Hello all. I tried to find something like iptables for aix 4.3.3, but had no luck. Is it possible to install iptables rpm with rpmrte, and what other packages do I need to do so (if there is no such package specially for aix)? Thank you very much

So, if I got it right, it's not possible to connect a "image of streamer tape" and some device, and use it as a dummy device?

I was wondering if I could (and how to) use a simple file as a device I could read from, like you can do cat /dev/cdrom? The problem is that I have streamer tape image, and that image is in some weird format, and it has variable block factor (data can be even "a few" hundred mb in 1 block), so...

Thanks for your fast reply - I found 2 ways of solving it, one of it is the right one that's actually working. Printer was supposed to be on the network, not attached on a computer.

Hello all Has anyone had a situation like this: IBM 6400 line printer needs to be connected as a network printer, and access machine/os is rs6000/aix(4.3). How to make a (I guess) virtual printer, what protocol is to be used etc etc... Is there a good document describing this (haven't found one...

well, the drive is seagate dat 9sp40-000 actually, but you gave me another idea-to look for the dip switch. Thanks
