I tried something... Removed the SATA drive and rebooed. My boot drive was now /dev/sda2 like normal, but could not boot. So I booted with rescue mode and did this 1. mount /dev/sda2 /mnt 2. chroot /mnt 3. grub-install /dev/sda2 Gave an error first about stage1-2 problem and then I re-ran the...

Hi all, I have a SUSE enterprise server with one raid and one SATA drive. In normal operation (for more than 1 year), the boot drive, RAID controller is /dev/sda2. /dev/sda1 is the swap and the other SATA drive is /dev/sdb1 for backup purposes. Everything was ok up to an uncontrolled power...

Here you go... /dev/sdc1 /media/onetouch vfat suid 0 0 I found something in boot.log... first I see <6>usb 1-2: new device found, idVendor=0d49, idProduct=7100 <6>usb 1-2: new device strings: Mfr=1, Product=3, SerialNumber=2 <6>usb 1-2: Product: OneTouch II <6>usb 1-2...

I have a problem mounting a USB hard drive at boot time. No problem doing a "mount -a". If I understand correctly, it should mount at boot time what is in fstab. Maybe the USB HD is not still recognize when the system parse fstab. I did not find anything relevant in var-log. Using SUSE...

Thanks for the info... I have now bypassed the firewall and the problem is gone. But funny enough, now I don't need two rules in the filters to access my servers... I will have to read more, because a lot to me does not make sense... Thanks, Simon

My VPN server is windows 2003 STD SP1 fully updated. I have seen this one http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=897651 but I do not think it applies to me... My connection drops like clockwork after 3min + or - a few seconds. I have seen some post here and on the net about some firewall problems...

Thanks for all the help... I tested my VPN from home and I always get disconnected. I don't see any bad logs and-or event viewer items... Any clues why I would always loose the connection. Thanks

Thanks... So my last question would be... Will IP filters will make it harder, will it protect more? From what I see only port 1723 is opened on the internet. IP filters will only make a differences after you have successfully login into the VPN... Do I understand correctly? Simon

Ok thanks... it works if I put those rules... What is the potential problem if I remove those filters, is there any way a hacker can do stuff from the web... Thanks

I think I have some limitations on my firewall, the test I did running on 2 different subnet is not working. Cannot connect. My lan is 10.1.1.x On my firewall I have tried connecting my second WAN static IP to a 192.168.2.x network but that did not work. Now my setup works with this Lan --...

Update: When I do my setup with two IP but without the IP filters, the VPN works. Do there is a problem with my 2 IP setup and IP filters combination. Anybody seen those problems Thanks, Simon

I did another test, if I use only one IP on the vpn server with no ip-filtering, everything is ok. So the problem seems to be related to the way I use the two IP... VPN server config... that does not work 10.1.1.223 (intranet side) -- Server -- 10.1.1.4 (internet side) -- FW VPN server...

Hi all, Just starting to play around with VPN... Here's what I plan on doing... any comments suggestion are welcomed. Internet --- FW(netgear FVL328) -- VPN server -- domain (dns) on the FW, I have configured a second static IP to point to the second IP of the VPN server. everything is on...

Found the problem... This module ata_piix was not loaded at boot time. Now everything is OK.

This is a SATA drive, probably detected has SCSI by linux for some reason... Is there a way to change the SCSI id on an SATA drive ? Like I said, I have a raid controler detected has /dev/sda and an SATA drive detected has /dev/sdb. I can manually mount /dev/sdb but not from fstab at boot...
