How do I put the server into secure mode?

Hi, this may sound funny but here goes... I needed to attach a monitor and keyboard to my E220R to configure it (couldn't configure it remotely). Now that I have it configured, I want to remove my keyboard but every time I remove my keyboard, I'm kick out onto the boot prom. I do not want to go...

I want to learn AIX but I don't know where to start? Is AIX really OpenSource? If it is, where can I get it? If it isn't, maybe I can try to get it on ebay. However, do you really need to run it on an IBM computer? I'm pretty proficient in Solaris and Linux but want to learn AIX so that I can...

Well, I'm trying to simulate a headless server with my other Red Hat 8.0 box. Let's assume that my box is racked and my only option (meaning no access server was setup) was to directly serial into the box. Assume that also this server does not have any ports for monitors or keyboards. It's...

I'm wondering if I can connect my two Red Hat 8.0 boxes through a serial connection? And how? Thanks in advance.

I have Oracle 8i installed on a Sun server. I log in to the server and then start dbastudio: oemapp dbastudio The GUI loads up and I'm able to get as far as the Security folder (where I see the USERS folder). I try to open up the USERS folder but it hangs for a long time... Any ideas on what...

Hi there, I'm trying to install the following driver onto my Red Hat 8.0 system so that it can support my Adaptec SCSI Host Adapter 29160N.I have a Seagate Python external SCSI tape device. I'm a newbie so I don't know how to install drivers on a Red hat 8.0 Linux system. I was able to install...

Anyone know of a GOOD step by step, idiot's guide to configuring NTP to point to an outside server on Red Hat 8.0? Because that's what I need. Focus on the idiot's guide part. I tried configuring to outside server but it keeps reverting to my local server.

I have three primary partitions: /boot, /, and swap on my system. I use the following command: #fdisk /dev/hda to create an extended partition called /dev/hda4. Out of this extended partition, I create a logical partition called /dev/hda5. I write the partition table but this is error I...

Thanks for the explanations. :-) Can you give me an example of a process where nohup would be used? Thanks.

Just to learn what nohup can do, I executed the command: # find -name grep a / '{}' \; -print > newfile & nohup is supposed to keep executing this command in the background even though I log out. The thing is, I executed this command, logged out, then logged back in. The process was still...

Also what does the run-parts command mean in the anacrontab file? Thanks!

One more question, if anacron doesn't use minutes, what is the delay field for? Thanks.

I read that the difference between cron and anacron is that cron assumes that the system is on continuously and will only execute a command if the system is on. This doesn't make sense. Isn't it a fundamental requirement that the system be ON in order for the shell to execute a command...

Use the following command: # set -o vi Or, if you want this to always be set, make sure you put this command in an initialization file.

I understand the function of pwunconv to remove the shadow file and place the encrypted passwords of the shadow file to the passwd file. But why would you need to use this? Thanks.

Does anyone know what the following directories are for? /etc/magicfilter/*/ /var/lib/apsfilter/* /etc/apsfilter/* Honestly, I looked all over google and no help there. Thanks.

I know this isn't a certification forum. But what IS /etc/usbmgr? I have Red Hat 8.0 installed and it doesn't have it. I've been looking everywhere for a short definition on it. Help!
