Atheros AR5005GS Wireless Network Adapter (802.11b/g) in this machine is supported by the MadWiFi driver.
Code: # su -
# vi /etc/yum.repos.d/livna.repo
Then add this:
Code: [livna]
name=Livna for Fedora Core $releasever - $basearch - Base
baseurl=
http://rpm.livna.org/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/
http://livna.cat.pdx.edu/fedora/$rele...$basearch/
http://wftp.tu-chemnitz.de/pub/linux/livna...$basearch/
http://ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de/pub/Mirro...$basearch/
failovermethod=priority
#mirrorlist=http://rpm.livna.org/mirrorlist-5
enabled=0
gpgcheck=1
(NB that i have the "enabled" bit set to "0" (off) in this file so that the livna-stable repository will not conflict with our RPMForge repositories for automatic updates.)
Be sure there is a carriage return (blank line) at the bottom of the file. Click the "save" icon in gvim or save with :wq
When all is done:
Code: yum update && yum install madwifi
Wait until it gets installed with no errors.
Now check and see if you have in your network connection the Atheros Communicator detected. To open network connections just type 'neat' as root, then Hardware section and you should see Atheros in there.
Manually load the module with:
Code: /sbin/modprobe ath_pci
Manually create the configuration files, network interface configuration scripts are located in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts and are named ifcfg-xxxx, where xxxx is the name of the interface.
MadWiFI driver creates an interface named ath0, so you should create a /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ath0 with:
Code: vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-ath0
And its contents:
Code: DEVICE=ath0
NAME=ath0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
ONBOOT=yes
MODE=Managed
ESSID=
Again save with :wq
ESSID entry should be set to the SSID of the wireless access point you are trying to connect to. If you omit this line, the card will simply attempt to connect to the most powerful access point. If you want to know what access points are available you can use the iwlist command:
Code: /sbin/iwlist ath0 scan
Start up the interface.
Then "Hello Wireless World" on fedora with Madwifi driver!
I just love this free world and many thanks to this forum and #linux-noob @ efnet!

Latest Update: Our webserver just got way overloaded and was pretty hard to access over the last couple hours. I've rebooted the machine and it's doing fine. I'll monitor the machine and we're going to ensure that it's stable. We will also ensure a failover webserver is properly configured in the future at a different location. There was no DNS outage during this problem as the web server does nothing besides serve webpages and do some email for us.

where you say there was no DNS outage,
well I was experiencing it, so that's why I'm emailing you, on IRC I asked a few friends from different parts of the world to ping linux-noob.com (they couldnt) and then to ping the everydns name servers (they couldnt)
you can see snippets of that conversation below
so, this email is to wish you good luck in fixing this issue and also to inform you that DNS was inaccesible for me and others last night.

if you've ever setup vsftpd and noticed that when you login it defaults the user to their home directory
eg: user anyweb will ftp in to
/home/anyweb/
then how can you let that user access another folder outside of their home ?
using bind !
here's a quick example
Code: [root@www anyweb]# mkdir ftp2
[root@www anyweb]# mount --bind /ftp2 /home/anyweb/ftp2
[root@www anyweb]# mkdir ftp3
[root@www anyweb]# mount --bind /ftp3 /home/anyweb/ftp3
now when you ftp in, you'll see the contents of /home/anyweb PLUS ther'll also be two additional folders called ftp2 and ftp3 and anything you dump in there or read from there comes directly from the 'real' directories
/ftp2
and
/ftp3
got it ?
thanks to jY in #linux-noob for this tip
cheers

Hi folks,
Ubuntu-6.06.1-LAMP-server-amd64
Apache2
Domain: satimis.homelinux.com
(registered with dynsdn.com)
Apache is running on this server which is for test purpose.
On browser
[/url]http://satimis.homelinux.com
https://satimis.homelinux.com
satimis.homelinux.com
http://satimis.homelinux.com:443
https://satimis.homelinux.com:443
satimis.homelinux.com:443
http://satimis.homelinux.com:8080
https://satimis.homelinux.com:8080
satimis.homelinux.com:8080
all of them failed to visit the homepage on /var/www/. They only hung there until time out.
Both ports 443 and 8080 are open and not stealth. I have them checked on;
[url=http://www.grc.com/]http://www.grc.com/
SheildsUp
# cat /etc/hosts
Code: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.0.100 sever1.example.com server1
ubuntu
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
However
//localhost
//localhost:443
//localhost:8080
all displayed the homepage.
There is no hardware firewall between server and Internet. The server is connected with a CAT5 cable to an ADSL modem. Another end of the ADSL modem is connected to telephone wall socket with a telephone line. The ADSL modem is supplied by ISP and does not require setup.
Please help. TIA

hi guys,
first of all thanks to Ritter for pointing this out to me,
secondly thanks to znx and grep for testing it, and thirdly thanks to google for providing the service !
quick FAQ
1. what is this ?
it's a gmail account with a difference, instead of yourname@gmail.com you'll get yourname@linux-noob.com
2. how do I sign up ?
contact anyweb@linux-noob.com directly (for now) with the following info
desired username=
firstname=
lastname=
3. how do I access it ?
Once you have been provided with the temporary password to login, please go to
[/url][url=http://email.linux-noob.com]http://email.linux-noob.com and login !
please note: this is still in TESTING phase at the moment but I hope to have it rolled out properly soon.
4. known issues ?
currently until i redirect mail provider, you can only SEND mail using your new username@linux-noob.com email address,
replies to that address will not reach your inbox,
I will fix that soon.
feel free to test this by emailing ME with your new email account and the subject 'testing email@linux-noob.com'
cheers

Almost every boot of my FC6 system, I see these errors:
Code: hda: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
ide: failed opcode was: 0xb0
hdb: drive_cmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdb: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
ide: failed opcode was: 0xb0
(from dmesg | tail)
Are both hda (newish Western Digital) and hdb (older Maxtor) dying or is there something else going on?
I ran an fsck on boot, and it came up clean for both / and /home (both on hda).
