...start. A check of the log files shows it has been working right up until the system was rebooted Sunday night. The reboot itself was not the problem as there had been previous reboots after which krb5kdc was able to restart. Here are the log entries for that latest retry: Jun 10 16:29:38 fisds0.forsoft.com krb5kdc[12490](info): setting up network...

...I have been able to get rsync working enough to be able to list modules but not transfer files. When I try to transfer a file from the client to the server I use the command: rsync -avz fapmenu fisdev::bak The client displays the following messages: @ERROR: access denied to bak from pgiprd.forsoft.com (192.168.2.19) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (80 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(150) While the server issues the following log message: 2003/07/04 12:01:53 [15981] rsync denied on module ba...

...r and this appears to work fine (once I disabled all the "Register this connection's address in DNS" options on the workstations). I have found one suspicious entry in /var/log/messages: Apr 12 17:34:14 fisds0 named[5210]: client 192.168.2.7#10242: updating zone 'forsoft.com/IN': deleting an RR This would seem to indicate that the printer itself has issued the request to the DNS server but for the life of me I cannot see what might be doing it. Has anyone encountered something similar and can point me in the right direction? TIA Regards, Hugh -- Hugh E Cr...

Hi All: I am looking for some possible recommendations on the handling of our internal DNS services. First some background... Until recently our entire network was located within a single facility with internal DNS services provided by our CentOS 4.7 (using BIND). While I had problems with DHCP/DNS communications it was basically working. At the beginning of the month we moved the production

CentOS 4.8, BIND 9.2.4 Hi All: I have a rather annoying problem with rndc which I have not been able to resolve despite much searching and many attempts to correct. When making changes to our DNS entries I have tried to use the following procedures: 1. Flush the cache buffers: rndc flush 2. Stop named: rndc stop 3. Delete the journal files: rm *.jnl 4. Edit the forward and/or

CentOS 4.8 Hi All: We recently had a Sony SDX-500V tape drive fail on one of our servers running CentOS 4.8. I have now replaced it with a spare SDX-500C. The problem that I am having now is that the failed drive had ceased responding to SCSI commands and we have since rebooted the system which resulted in the tape drive being removed from our current hardware configuration and the system does

CentOS 4.6 Hi All: Is it possible to force sendmail to use a specified host name for outbound email to a selected domain name instead of the host name that can be found by looking up the DNS entry? The problem is that we have a client that uses the same ISP as we do and the IP addresses assigned to both of us are very close. This has resulted in connection problems specifically with our
