Hi there
I just installed red hat linux 9 on vmware and am having trouble getting vmware tools to install i found some instructions and this is what they tell me to do:
im already logged in as root
mount /dev/cdrom /mnt
cd /tmp
first 2 go fine but its the next
rpm-Uhv/mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-6.0.0-45731.i386.rpm
another tut tells me: tar zxf /mnt/vmware-linux-tools.tar.gz for the 3rd one.
i get an error saying that the destination directory doesn't exist! Can someone tell me exactly where it points to i know the iso with VMwareTools-6.0.0-45731.i386.rpm and VMwareTools-6.0.0-45731.tar.gz inside it is called linux.iso its in the main vmware directory and ive copied it to temp folder in c directory also directed vmware to where it is.
Any help would be appreciated, cheers i don't want spoon feeding i just want to know what the 3rd line refers to and where in my directory!
I've been googling since this morning and now its 21:41 I just get the same guides over and over and they are no help!

| Bandwidth Quotas using iptables |
|

Well, I thought I would step into the realm of iptables again. This little tutorial will show you how to setup the quota patch for iptables.
The quota patch allows you to well... set a quota, when the quota is match or exceeds the number of bytes, you can perform a certain action.
The first step to this guide is to download the iptables source code from netfilter's website (www.netfilter.org) and you will also need the patch-o-matic-ng.
Once you have downloaded both files you will need to get the kernel source, this can be done by simply issuing the following:
Code: yum -y install kernel-devel
Once you have the kernel source installed you can begin unpacking the iptables source file and the path-o-matic-ng file using the tar utility as shown below.
Code: tar jxf iptables-1.3.7.tar.bz2
tar jxf patch-o-matic-ng-20040621.tar.bz2
Once you have successfully extracted both iptables and path-o-matic you can begin with installing the quota patch as shown below.
Code: cd patch-o-matic-ng
IPTABLES_DIR=/usr/src/iptables-1.3.7 KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.21-1.3194.fc7-i686 ./runme quota
You will want to replace the iptables source code path with the one that suites your machine and also the kernel directory.
Once this command has been issued you maybe given an error saying it couldn't apply the patch, you can ignore this.
Once you have applied the patch you will need to recompile the iptables source code, this can be done by simply issuing the following:
Code: cd iptables-1.3.7
make BINDIR=/sbin LIBDIR=/lib KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.21-1.3194.fc7-i686
make install BINDIR=/sbin LIBDIR=/lib KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.21-1.3194.fc7-i686
make clean BINDIR=/sbin LIBDIR=/lib KERNEL_DIR=/usr/src/kernels/2.6.21-1.3194.fc7-i686
Thats it you now have successfully applied the quota patch :).
Now lets try out our new iptables module :)issue the following to check that the quota module is loaded and can be used:
Now that ipt_quota is loaded a simple rule as follows can be used to block web traffic that exceeds 100 bytes.
Code: iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -m quota --quota 1024 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j DROP
What the above rule does is count down from 1MB (1024 kilobytes is a Megabyte) and when the quota hits zero the second rule will kick in which drops all the traffic.
To prove this issue the above two commands and then view the details in OUTPUT chain by issuing
Code: iptables -L OUTPUT -v
This will produce similar output to:
Quote:Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 3640 packets, 1753K bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination
1 40 ACCEPT tcp -- any any anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:http quota: 984 bytes
0 0 DROP tcp -- any any anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:http
Notice the quota for HTTP, now if you open your web browser and visit www.linux-noob.com you should be able to view the front page
once or at least start to transfer traffic before you will be cut off.
If you issue the command iptables -L OUTPUT -v again you will notice that the quota should of or has almost hit 0 which is when the second rule
kicks in as shown below.
Quote:Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 3814 packets, 1773K bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination
8 996 ACCEPT tcp -- any any anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:http quota: 0 bytes
9 504 DROP tcp -- any any anywhere anywhere tcp dpt:http
Well I hope you enjoyed this little guide :)and be sure I'll have more on iptables soon :)

Hi, my names Scott. I've tried Linux a few times but always got bogged down with it. Now I've found this forum I think I'll give it another go. I'm in the process of downloading Fedora and I've already set up a virtual machine to play with a couple of live cd's. I'm determined to get it licked this time, with your help of course.
I'm looking forward to being an active member of this community.
