It seems silly asking this question but honestly I don't know how to do this. Let's say I have a folder called "main". I set the permissions so that everyone can read and write to it. How can I set the permissions so that if I create a subfolder called "folder1", the folder...

I'm trying to install 98 onto a workstation. I bootup off the cd/floppy just fine. Run setup. It starts and finishes scandisk with no problems. It goes to a black screen and says to "Please wait while setup initializes....Scanning system registry...Copying files needed for windows...

(Running Red Hat 7.1) Yesterday, our building lost power. Upon reboot, one of my linux server's screen was "flickering" to a black sreen (never being able to get into X). I reboot at level 3 with no problem and tried to start X from the command line. The screen goes...

I am in the process of setting up a computer that the workers will use for general internet use during lunchtimes and breaks. I'm using Red Hat 8.0 with Phoenix as the browswer, and I was wondering if someone has some pointers on how to lock down the machine. I was thinking of making a group...

I installed Red Hat 8.0 with no problems. I set up the ip address and gateway correctly but I can't ping anything other than the local machine (and localhost). For example, internal network is 192.168.0.x with subnet 255.255.255.0. On this machine I set it's ip as 192.168.0.12 sub...

Here is a bit of information that may help some people if they are having this particular problem installing RH. I was trying to install 7.3 but when I came to installing the last few packages to install, the installation asked for cd 3. I would put in cd 3 but I kept on getting the error...

I've downloaded the iso's for RedHat 7.3 Checked the md5sum and did a "mediacheck"....everything is okay so far. Now, when I start the actual install and anaconda starts running I get this error.... "/usr/bin/python1.5: error while loading shared libraries: /lib/libc.so.6...

I am having some problems with a certain network printer of ours. I am wanting to take the results of me pinging the printer and write the results to a file. But I would like the ping results to show the time of the ping so I can check the results against the times of the failed prints. Right...

Background info.... I have a few users that send large files to print (upwards to 800 megs). It takes quite awhile for things to go through. We have a basic network....everything is connected through a couple of 3com 10/100 hubs. The printer is shared out on the print server. Problem..... In...

I've recently setup a dns server. I found an online site that will do nslookup to see what records it could find. My MX record with the highest priority doesnt show up BUT...the lower priority MX record does show up. Any pointers on correcting this? I know it's vague but I can give more detail...

I am having a problem with the autoreply. The autoreply gets sent but the senders email address is not getting saved in the vacation.cache. The following is the error that I get in the procmail log file. procmail: Locking "vacation.lock" procmail: Error while writing to...

I am running a sendmail server. I allow the server to relay emails from the internal network only. Problem is....if I have a user that wants to check his email while he is at home(using his account on our server), he can check the emails just fine, he can even send an email to other internal...

I haven't tried this yet but I wanted to get some of your comments. Would I be able to set up a server and have it act as the mail server, dns server and proxy server ALL under the same IP address? If I am, are there any "gotchas" that some of you have come across when doing this? I...

I'm running Red Hat 7.1 with sendmail. On the computer, I can "telnet localhost 25". I can go through and send email out through the command line. I can't "telnet nameofserver 25". Also, I can't telnet to port 110 or 143 under localhost or the name of the server. Any...

I feel a bit silly but this one is stumping me so I thought I would get your guys/gals input. A friend recently purchase a new optical ps2 mouse for her computer. She has an older computer so I had to try to use a converter to change the mouse to serial (the computer doesn't have a ps2 port)...

I want to restrict some of my users from being able to pull up the internet through Microsoft Outlook but still give them the ability to receive emails. I've checked the configuration options but I can't find anything. Any ideas?

We had a problem with getting a workstation to join the domain AND to use dhcp. If I tried to tell it to use dhcp, it would give us the error that no domain controller could be found. I did try to release/renew the ip address but that did not help. IPCONFIG/ALL just returned an ip address of...
