[opensuse] MDADM - can't force build with 4 disks
by Steve Pritchard 01 Apr '07

01 Apr '07

Hello, I'm trying to build a 4 disk ATA raid with OpenSuse 10.2. In both the Yast module and CLI using mdadm I get the same error: invalid raid level: =raid5 My command line looks like this: mdadm --create --force /dev/md0 --chunk=64 -l=raid5 -n=4 /dev/hde /dev/hdf /dev/hdg /dev/hdh Both Yast and the CLI will allow the build using 3 disks and a spare...but --force SHOULD tell mdadm to use all disks for the array....and it does not seem to work. Any thoughts and ideas appreciated! cheers, Steve -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] VPN connection to Sonicwall
by David Brodbeck 01 Apr '07

01 Apr '07

Has anyone successfully set up a VPN connection from a mobile Linux system to a SonicWall firewall? Their Global VPN Client is Windows-only, as far as I can tell. I found this whitepaper: http://www.vpn-technology.com/Interoperability/SonicWALL VPN with Red Hat Linux.pdf But it assumes a static IP on each end, and the remote end of my connection is a laptop with a dynamic IP. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse] time difference between system clock and OS clock
by dwain 01 Apr '07

01 Apr '07

Could some one explain why there is a 5 hour difference between my system clock and the clock in opensuse? Opensuse is running 5 hours behind. I have the time zone set to Central. I don't quite understand. I downloaded the time zone patch today when I reinstalled the os. I'm puzzled. Dwain -- Dwain Alford P.O.

[opensuse] 64bit 10.2
by sfreilly＠adelphia.net 01 Apr '07

hi all, trying 64 bit 10.2 on my acer...... a first. never had a problem getting madwifi to work for the atheros chip on this acer with 32 bit 10.2 or any version of suse for that matter. deleted and installed madwifi from tarball, 64 bit rpm from madwifi site, and also 64 bit from guru via smart, none of which are providing the kernel module ath_pci. I am getting no errors when installing via any of the above means. Rebooting does not do anything either. Has anyone had luck on 64 bit 10.2 with the madwifi package? thank you. opensuse:/home/steve # athstats --version input output altrate short long xretry crcerr crypt phyerr rssi rate athstats: wifi0: No such device opensuse:/home/steve # modprobe ath_pci FATAL: Module ath_pci not found. opensuse:/home/steve # ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:16:D4:66:39:84 inet addr:192.168.1.105 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::216:d4ff:fe66:3984/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:2867 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:2176 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:157 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:2966912 (2.8 Mb) TX bytes:321246 (313.7 Kb) Interrupt:50 Base address:0x8000 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:25 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:25 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:2004 (1.9 Kb) TX bytes:2004 (1.9 Kb) opensuse:/home/steve # -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help(a)opensuse.org
