  1. I just purchased a IOGEAR KVM:http://www.iogear.com/main.php?loc=product&product_id=283&sec=Function%20Diagram It works fine with my Mandrake system and other systems switching back and forth with no problems. One thing that does not work on it is that there are 2 extra usb ports that allow you to plug in additional usb devices to be shared with all the other machines that are connected to the KVM. The windows machines have no problem picking the other usb devices up. Mandrake 10 however is. When I go to the hardware configuration and look at the KVM it is in unknown devices section with the folllowing description: Vendor: ‎ATEN Bus: ‎USB Description: ‎4 Port USB KVM B V1.60 Module: ‎unknown Media class: ‎Human Interface Devices|Boot Interface Subclass|Keyboard Is it possible that anyone has had this same problem as I am having or knows how to make this kvm a recognized device. If anyone needs additional info to help with this please let me know. MB

  3. Last night i Installed nessus and got it working fine. This morning I had to reboot my system and I can not get nessus to start now. This is the output that I get: root@localhost mblanco]# nessusd -D /usr/local/var/nessus/services.tcp: No such file or directory Could not initialize OpenSSL - please use nessus-mkrand(1) first ! What should I do here? I am a very newbie. Thanks MB Edit: moved from Software by spinynorman
  4. I am running MDK 10 on a Dell C810 and the screen is just not showing a very crisp picture. I have installed the Nvidia drivers for the 2.6 kernel already and that is working fine. I am looking for the right combination of resolution settings and monitor. Does any one know this? Currently I am running these settings: Monitor: Generic ( I assume this is right b/c it is a laptop) Flat Panel 1400x1050 Resolution: 1152x864 24bpps Does any one have a crisp picture out there??
  5. Ok all of that worked but I want these settings to survive a reboot also. I was able to find where the defualt route gets set. /etc/sysconfig/network Where does the static ip and netmask get set? Thanks for the help
  6. I am using MDK 10 CE. Before all this I was using dhcp with no problems. I am setting up a server and I need it to have a static ip address. So I set it up in the mandrake control center. I gave it an ip address outside of the range gave it a subnet 255.255.255.0 and the gateway. I can ping everything internally but can not ping or get out of the gateway. Can someone please help I thought this would be alot easier than this.
  7. When I run rpmdrake from the command line I get the following output. What does it mean. There are not all updates that I need to install are they? [root@localhost bind]# rpmdrake examining synthesis file [/var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.Installation CD 1 (x86) (cdrom1).cz] examining synthesis file [/var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.Installation CD 2 (x86) (cdrom2).cz] examining synthesis file [/var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.Installation CD 3 (x86) (cdrom3).cz] examining synthesis file [/var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.plf.cz] examining synthesis file [/var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.main.cz] examining synthesis file [/var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.contrib.cz] would install instead of upgrade package kernel-multimedia-2.4.22.21mm.2mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-2.4.25.2mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel24-tmb-2.4.25-2.tmb.1mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel2.4-marcelo-2.4.25-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-secure-2.6.3.7mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel24-tmb-enterprise-2.4.25-2.tmb.1mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-tmb-enterprise-2.6.4-1.tmb.5mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-enterprise-2.6.3.7mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-tmb-i686-up-4GB-2.6.4-1.tmb.5mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-enterprise-2.4.25.2mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-i686-up-4GB-2.6.3.7mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-smp-2.6.3.4mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-multimedia-smp-2.4.22.21mm.2mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-p3-smp-64GB-2.4.25.2mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-smp-2.4.25.2mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-p3-smp-64GB-2.6.3.7mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-secure-2.6.3.4mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-i686-up-4GB-2.4.25.2mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-smp-2.6.3.7mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-enterprise-2.6.3.4mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-i686-up-4GB-2.6.3.4mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-2.6.3.7mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-tmb-2.6.4-1.tmb.5mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-2.6.3.4mdk-1-1mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel22-smp-2.2.20-9mdk.i586 would install instead of upgrade package kernel-linus2.2-2.2.25-1mdk.i586
  8. Yes I would like to set it up manually just to get more experience in linux and I do know that it called bind. I have tried to install bind from source on the ISC site but I just do not know if it is acutally installing or not. How do I be sure. I have done it a few times now. Should I uninstall it? If so how would I go about uninstalling a source package? So what I have done thus far is just get the mdk packages: bind-9.2.3-6mdk.i586 bind-utils-9.2.3-6mdk.i586 And installed those. Is there a document on how to set these up manually?
  9. I am running Mandrake 10 CE and loving it even though I am new to the Linux Environment. Now I am trying to setup a DNS Server to host my new domain name. Is there some sort of tutorial out there that could help me with this? I have read the How-Tos on TLDP site but they are not helping. Is there something specific to Mandrake? MB
  10. All I am new to Linux and trying to setup a DNS server on my box using the TLDP How TO document Chroot-Bind How TO. http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Chroot-BIND-HOWTO.html#toc1 When I try to start the named service it seems like nothing happens. I go to ps -ef | grep bind and nothing is returned except my grep process for bind. Can someone please help me out here. I can provide more information as needed. Thanks, MB Moved by Ixthusdan
  11. In the searching tab in Search Scope I had it set to one it needed to be set to "sub" Is there a way in evolution when you are writing an email to automatically resolve against the ldap server. Instead of clicking the "To" button and then going to the ldap address book and adding your reciepients. For instance when writing an email in Outlook you could just press Alt+K and it would resolve the common names to email address. Can evolution be setup to do the same?
  12. I have been beating my head against the wall to get Evolution to resolve against our ldap server here at work. ldap.atos.slb.com is the server with a search base of o=slb,c=an we can bind to it anonymously. can someone please help me with this. If there is additional information that you need please let me know. Thanks MB
  13. I am new to linux and mandrake and I am enjoying it thus far. I am running 10 CE and saw this on a board recently....

Now lets see what the others have to say wr How do I get the updates to 10 CE if there really are 500MB of bug fixes? MB
  14. I now have a docking station at work and when I boot up on it. I get errors and it will only boot to run level 3. Do I need to create a docked profile or something like that. I am a long time Windows user (please forgive me)
  15. Well I finally got it working this morning. I installed the driver with the -ane option. Then went and edited the /etc/X11/XFConfig-4 file like the Readme file explained. So now my laptop can boot up fine and load the right drivers. Thanks alot.
