Re: [Wlug] CentOS 4.7 webserver help

If this is a fresh system, I'd recommend you flatten & start over with CentOS 5.3, which is the current version, rather than trying to debug an old 4.7 version. Configuring smb can be a pain.

My soon to arrive KVM switch.

by Ken Jones

Thanks, everyone. I have learned allot. I have eight computers in my home office. One is a SUN ULTRA 1, the rest are various makes and models of PC desktop machines. On these I have Windows plus Linux (Aurora and Red Hat Fedora. Why do I have these machines? That's what my wife asks. Maybe in my dotage I have become victim to a hoarding syndrome I am trying to get organized so I purchased a "IOGEAR 8-Port KVM Switch Kit, PS/2,with KVM Cables (GCS78KIT)" from amazon.com. They gave me free shipping and handling. My conclusion after reading this thread is that I need one "13W3-to-VGA" adapter to connect the ULTRA to the KVM switch. Stephen Thamel has one available.

The bigger problem is the mouse/keyboard, since the U1 uses a totally different and non-standard setup. The old Sun Type 4 & 5 keyboards. Some KVM switches supported the older sun standard. Newer suns all use USB mice/keyboards with minor extensions and are perfectly compatible with KVMs. In this case, you might be out of luck. Exactly which model KVM did you buy? John

Re: [Wlug] WLUG..KVM...Sun keyb/mouse, old and new

by Ken Jones

Doug, you are correct. My ULTRA 1 has a "funny" 25 pin sized connector with 13 pins. My mouse plugs into the keyboard. If I could get the terminal to work thru the kvm switch it would not be too bad to have a second keyboard and mouse on my desk. I can use VNCviewer if necessary, but I would prefer a "real" connection. Is there an adaptor between kvm and the "funny" terminal? What is it called? Ken ----- Original Message ----- From: Doug Mildram To: kjones(a)ziplink.net Sent: Tuesday, May 12, 2009 12:40 PM Subject: WLUG..KVM...Sun keyb/mouse, old and new I get WLUG in digest (usually noon time). I see some answers on Sun KVM but I think they do NOT tell you that.... a) OLD sun monitors have that funny DB25-shaped connector, and matching/old-style video adapter cards/mboard. there ARE "adapter/converter" gizmos in both directions. I think I have one at home, I should junk the ultra10 (style "b" below) that I don't use. I forget which adapter I have (for old sun and newer VGA; or newer sun and oldSun Monitor). b) NEWER sun's e.g. ultraNN (i think Ultra1 is in the OLD camp above) have: "new" VGA style adapter, works with any VGA monitor BUT: "OLD" sun keyboard is still required unless you are going headless (on the Sun, at BOOTup powerup time, if keyboard is detected, Sun boots in normal/console mode; if NOT detected, it considers /dev/ttya as serial console ) The sun keyboard is totally incompatible as far as I know. compare the DIN pins to the DIN pins on a PS/2 keyboard(or mouse). and the sun MOUSE is attached to the sun KEYBOARD, which rather proves the imcompatible point. Though you could just do the "V" portion thru a KVM, maybe, with 2 keybds on your desk.

Summer internship: Linux system administrator (Worcester)

by Brian Conway

Hi guys, the company I work for is hiring a summer intern with Linux experience and interest in network and VoIP engineering. We're a small startup in the Worcester area, near 290 and the Pike. Experience with *any* of the following is great: Red Hat/CentOS, Asterisk, Python, PHP, networking, firewalls, and VPNs. Feel free to hit me up with questions or resumes. I don't know what computer/*NIX mailing lists at WPI are popular, but a forward would be cool, too. Thanks much. Brian Conway

HI Chuck et al, I have received emails from folks who sent them encrypted with my key, and that is working for me. When folks download my key from the key server, they should see about 5 signatures on it. I'd like somebody to confirm this so I know if I'm doing it correctly. The key is 0x268E4CEA.
