similar to: OpenSSH name resolving problems

Hello there, In OpenSSH 3.0.2p1 there is a strange name resolving bug: /etc/nsswitch.conf shows: hosts: files dns When I am trying to connect to a host that is in /etc/hosts using the hostname, ssh tries to first resolve this name using the dns, regardless to the resolve order in /etc/nsswitch.conf, if the dns is timeout or the machine is not connected to the Internet at this time -

Almost forgot... I already reported this but a few months ago when I was using openSSH 2.9x, it's the same bug. And no - it's not the server end that is stalling me on a revese lookup: 1. I was doing ssh localhost, localhost resolves perfectly, the same for 127.0.0.1 (reverse) 2. ssh -v shows me: debug1: Reading configuration data /usr/local/etc/ssh_config debug1: Seeding random number

Hello there. Sorry for bothering you regarding this, but I am really looking for a solution to this problem, maybe you saw it in the SSH mailing list... but just in case... I remember you tried helping me once... If you could at least tell me who should ask regarding this issue, that would be quite a nice start... The problem: I have noticed that when I am forking something to the background

I'm currently setting up a large mail system, with different services split out onto different machines. What I want is this: machine1: dovecot smtp auth, no pop/imap machine2: dovecot lda, no pop/imap machine3: pop/imap, nothing else machine3 is obviously not the issue. Is there a way to run machine1 and machine2 with just their respective services, but no pop/imap? -- Marshal Newrock

I am trying to do an rsync or scp from machine1 to machine2. I am getting arg list to long. I am using centos 5 machine 1 and centos 4.5 on machine2. I am using the default shell which is bash. How can I get past this? THanks, Jerry

Hi all.. I'm using Samba 3.0.2a on Mandrake 10, serving +/- 50 win98 clients. I'm using this options: logon path = \\%N\%U\profile logon home = \\%N\%U\profile but the roaming profile seems do not working... at least the way that I want. (maybe this is the right behavior). What I want: -> When an user logins on MACHINE1 the profile that is saved in Linux begin download to

(I asked an earlier question on the rpy2 installation to the rpy2 list, the solution there was to edit the setup.py script, but this looks beyond what I can do unless someone tells me exactly what to modify). I have R 2.8.1 on 2 machines running ubuntu 8.04 (packages R-base and R-base-dev, among others, installed using Synaptic) and while the installation of rpy2 went fine on machine1, failed on

Hi All I have compiled rsync on a Solaris 5.5.1 machine1 . I have compiled this on a partition on the machine as root. I have done the following shared the Partition on the machine i have compiled. mounted this partition this partition on the machine2 where I need to rsync data then When I issue the command on machine2 as rsync -avz machine2:/x machine3: It gives me sh :rsync not found EOF

Folks; I couldn't find anything on my archive of the mailing list on this, and it may just be my mis-understanding, but: When I "ssh machine1 -l user1" as user2 on machine2, if user2 has the same uid on machine1, then user2's name ends up in lastlog, instead of user1's. This is a bit disconcerting when user2 is root, and root isn't allowed to remotely log in on

Hi all, SPN = servicePrincipalName A simple search returning all servicePrincipalName declared in your AD: ldbsearch -H $sam serviceprincipalname=* serviceprincipalname An extract from result concerning a lambda client: # record 41 dn: CN=win-client345,OU=Machines,DC=ad,DC=domain,DC=tld servicePrincipalName: HOST/MB38W746-0009 servicePrincipalName: HOST/MB38W746-0009.ad.domain.tld

Hi all, I'm trying to scp some files from machine1 to machine2. But, I'm in an environment where PubKeyAuthentication is not allowed in ssh :( So, I'm confused how to automate it as cronjob. However, I read somewhere that we can write a little bash script that will utilize 'expect' to answer for the ssh password prompt? Can we do this? Any examples are great help. Thank you.

Hello all: I have two machines with btrfs, that give me the "blocked for more than 120 seconds" message. After that I cannot write anything to disk, i am unable to unmount the btrfs filesystem and i can only reboot with sysrq-trigger. It always happens when i write many files with rsync over network. When i used 3.2rc6 it happened randomly on both machines after 50-500gb of writes.

Hi, we have a Samba 3.0.24 server on a Fedora Core 5 system and we use it as PDC. I have client machines with Windows XP SP2. What I want: - some machines (for example machine1) should be used only by user1 and user2 - allow user3 to use ONLY some machines (for example machine2) I tried the following: [global] include = /etc/samba/smb.conf.%m invalid users = user3 here's the

hi, I have two machines, machine1 and machine2 both in the same network. The command I have been using to install a paravirt guest is virt-install --name=test --ram=512 --vcpus=1 --file=/dev/vgraid/puremessage-vm-root --paravirt --location=http://mirror.centos.org/centos-5/5.2/os/x86_64/ In machine 1 it is working. But not in machine 2. It is not able to retrieve or access url in machine 2.

We are planning to run an outbound only campaign. A 20-second voice message will be played to callers and our dialer on machine1 will send to machine2-asterisk (1.4) instructions to dial 400 calls, play the message and hang up. This will be done for about 1 million phones. The asterisk box will communicate via SIP to a voice carrier. the voice carrier will then place the calls on pstn. The codec

hi, i'm using machine 1 (SuSE 9.0 32Bit): rsync 2.6.2 (from SuSE RPM) machine 2 (SuSE 9.1 64Bit): rsync 2.6.2 (from SuSE RPM) my command looks like the following: /usr/bin/rsync -W --progress --rsync-path=/usr/local/bin/rsync -e ssh --delete --force -av /data/ machine2:/data/machine1/ after rsyncing both machines, some files differ ! i verified these differences with "diff",

Has anyone ever setup a pair of fileservers running Samba such that each server can takeover the other server's functionality and identity? It seems to me that a Samba HA setup would be very similar to a virtual server Samba setup. In other words, use the 'include' directive in conjunction with the %L variable to make each smbd process act as the server named by the client. So far so

Greetings All. First let me introduce my situation Machine1: Pdc Samba + OpenLDAP(master) Machine2: Bdc Samba + OpenLDAP(slave) LDAP stores Samba and POSIX information for each user. Case1: I login to Machine1 and invoke smbpasswd. I change my passwords (samba and posix without any problem). In next few seconds they get propagated to Machin2 wher I can login with new credentials. ldap log

Hi to all rsync users. rsync's `--delete' option works fine in the following example: I'm sending all the content of /home/rodolfo from machine1 to /home/rodolfo in machine2: $ rsync --dry-run -vrtul --delete --exclude='/.*' . 192.168.0.2:/home/rodolfo , and --delete works perfectly. Instead, in this other example: $ rsync --dry-run -vrt --delete --modify-window=1 file1
