RHEL 6.5 Machine Keeps Auto Rebooting

Hi Team,

I have RHEL satellite login credentials and I am able to update successfully my machine.Updating single worked for sometime.

My current requirement is to keep a separate VM locally in my environment and sync the RHEL repo to my machine.

How do I do it.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, wasn't sure which was most appropriate...

I've built a Redhat 7 VM from an ISO and I've carried out various configuration on it and for some reason when I now run ip commands (for examnple 'ip addr show') I no longer get any output on screen.

Example...
[root@rhel-7-xx2 ~]# ip addr show
[root@rhel-7-xx2 ~]#

Version I'm using is:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.0 (Maipo)

I built another server and had the same problem and managed to fix it by yum updating all packages so it looks like a package needs to be updated but not sure which one.

If I pipe the output to a text file I can see the output okay in the file.

I have a ticket open with Redhat but it's taking a while to troubleshoot with them so thought I'd see if anyone else had seen this in the meantime...

Thanks
James

Can you guys advise on how to resolve this? We have a machine (RHEL 6 32bit 2.6.32-504.8.1.el6.i686) that boots to a black screen. I can SSH into it from my machine, but when you're physically at the machine it just displays a black screen.

I have tried booting from the previous 2 kernels, but still get the black screen.

I am assuming something got hosed with the video stuff? Its an ATI Radeon 4000series card. Should I install the ATI driver from their website and try? We have never had to do that with these machines though.


Also, when running a yum update, we receive this error. I'm not sure how to resolve this and if resolving this will fix the video issues.

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Heres after running yum update --skip-broken:

I have configured RHEL cluster by installing ricci and luci server. I have successfully tested it for httpd service. Now my target is to achive the HA of python. Can anyone help me with it?

In Mint Cinnamon 17.1, every time I reboot, I get an option in GRUB to boot into recovery mode. I have to then manually select normal (not recovery mode) booting, after which I get to the regular Cinnamon desktop. This started happening after the computer froze one time and I had to power it off, but it happens every time I reboot now. Bottom line: on reboot, I need to go through an extra, unnecessary step of selecting normal, rather than recovery, mode. Does anyone know how to get rid of this recovery mode option in GRUB?

I have an Intel x86_64 system running rhel 7.0 I want to use this system as a Firewall. The system has two NICs. one NIC is defined with the static IP address from my ISP. The other NIC is also static i.e. no dhcp, and is assigned a LAN addrs of 192.168.10.6 It is plugged into a switch (192.168.10.1) that has other three devices plugged in. Each with it's own hard-coded LAN address (Netmask is 255.255.255.0) I have two zones active in the firewall config External (using the static ip from the ISP) and Internal (using the IP addrs of 192.168.10.6) I'm forwarding the following two ports 80 & 443 in both zones. External zone: ports 80 & 443 are forwarded to my switch (192.168.10.1) Internal zone: ports 80 & 443 are forwarded to my static IP addrs from my ISP. I have IP masquerading turned on in the External zones. However none of the other workstations (Windows 7 professional) and my "smart" TV (netflix access) are able to access the internet. Again I'm NOT using any dhcp, all IP addresses are hard coded. I can ping any LAN address from any LAN node. The Linux FW machine can access the internet. I've read thru the RHEL 7.0 Security guide regarding setting up the firewall and I believe I have all the elements defined properly ... It just doesn't work. I have the same set of DNS values defined on all systems.
They are the three DNS servers assigned by my ISP. I have ipv4 forwarding active on my Linux system. I have masquerading "turned on" in the External zone. The resolv.conf file has the ip addresses of the DNS servers as well as my switch.
However the windows 7 systems and my "smart" TV cannot access the internet.
Anyone who's really familiar with rhel firewall-config GUI and has any suggestions please respond.
Thanks
Guy

Hi all.
RHEL 6.0 in Virtual Box, network is ok, it can resolve all repos (f.e. dl.fedoraproject.org, nginx.org),
but when I'm trying
Code:

# rpm -Uvh http://nginx.org/packages/rhel/6/noarch/RPMS/nginx-release-rhel-6-0.el6.ngx.noarch.rpm

I get:
Code:

curl: (6) Couldn't resolve host

When I'm trying with ip instead name:
Code:

curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404

Only rpmforge repo enabled, but it can't find any packets for install/update.

What can I do?
Thanks.

Hello again,

i need to understand once for all the syntax of files.repo.

When i need a repository i create under /etc/yum.repos.d/ the repository file

goofy.repo

with this syntax

[repository_name]
[goofy]
baseurl=ftp:///mydirectory/myrepodir
gpgcheck=0

---
Myrepodir contains all the *.rpm files i need

when i exit and save i get anytime this error

Code:

ftp:///mydirectory/myrepodir/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] PYCURL ERROR 6 - ""
Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: repobase. Please verify its path and try again

What am i wrong for? How can i just say to my rhel/centos system
"Ehy, for rpm look inside /mydirectory/myrepo" ?

Thanks

Hi - I have the most aggravating problem. On my RHEL 5.2 w/s using gnome (or KDE), if you select "lock screen" from the pulldown and then try to unlock the screen with your password you logged in successfully with in the first place, it comes back shaking it's head INCORRECT PASSWORD. I did some digging and the /var/log/secure file is spitting out:

gnome-screensaver-dialog: pam_unix(gnome-screensaver:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=500 euid=500 tty=0.0 ruser= rhost= user=username

Then below that also:

gnome-screensaver-dialog: pam_unix(gnome-screensaver:auth): auth could not identify password for [username]

I find this is happening on a few of my other RHEL systems too: RHEL 5.5, 6.0, and 6.5.

Help!

I need to take log from Chrooted DNS Server on RHEL.
I do not understand how I get the logs.
Please help me.
