I have/had the same problem. look for /usr/sbin/in.ftpd - if it doesn't exist, then that's why you couldn't ftp to the box - you need to load wu-ftp. redhat have a page on it:
http://www.redhat.com/support/docs/tips/FTP-Setup-Tips/FTP-Setup-Tips.html
They say you should load NetKit-B (an RPM)...
I've installed redhat 6.2, and I want to set it up as a firewall - so I need to be sure that I'm using the most up-to-date versions of packages. I want to load wu-ftp, and the (pretty crap) redhat doc says load up NetKit-B, which isn't on the CD. But wu-ftpd source is, but that comes with...
Our problem is that we're running 3rd party software, and they say they only support it on Workstation - but we need the ftp conections to feed data to the application - which again is 3rd party software.
It looks like we're going to have to break the support agreement purely to get the...
Bizzare...
I'm fighting exactly the same problem at the moment. we have software running on NT Workstation which has a persistent connection to another box. Then we have 6 connections 'reserved' for ftp transfers to the machine, and a shared drive. That makes 8 connections we have to have.
We...
Try this:
(dump / then /var):
ufsdump 0vf /dev/rmt/0n /
ufsdump 0vf /dev/rmt/0n /var
(rewind the tape):
mt -f /dev/rmt/0 rewind
ufsrestore -ivf /dev/rmt/0
(you should now be in an interactive restore of / - quit the session.)
ufsrestore -ivfs /dev/rmt/0n 1
(the 's' flag combined with the...
If that doesn't work in x86, you can specify the MAC address using the ifconfig command.
From the ifconfig man page:
ifconfig le1 ether aa:1:2:3:4:5
You would probably want to put it in an appropriate script in /etc/rc2.d
Assuming your tape device is /dev/rmt/0:
use /dev/rmt/0n instead - that will stop the tape rewinding after the dump of / and will append the dump of /usr to the tape.
To restore from the dump, you would use the 's' flag for ufsrestore to skip over the dump of /
