The collected works of marmotta

I need to use nfs for a sharing mi files in my linux server. I use a mandriva dist and i succesfully setup my linux box as nfs server/client.

The problem is the irix client side. The gui tools not find my shares... if i use a command mount (in prompt or fstab) all work but show my this message: "mount:server does not provide support for any security mode, will use
default even if it violates RFC 2623" this is a problem? Why show me this message? Is possible to fix it? Why gui tools of irix not find my shares? I not have firewall end i have tryed some variant of /etc/exports in linux side but with no success.

I have tryed to use "unfs3" instead of "nfs-server" in linux side and my sgi don't show the message but when i list the shared diretory work.... when i go in one of the shared directory and list the contenent my shell crash....

Sorry for my poor english...

i have tryed cd /hosts/mynfsserver/dir but the result is no file or directory (my automount is off)

I have tryed your settings in my linux /etc/exports but nothing change

with editing fstab my nfs net work correctly but remain the question why gui tools (system preference, add remote resource ecc) not view my shares, and what does the message "mount:server does not provide support for any security mode, will use
default even if it violates RFC 2623" ????? when i launch the mount command...

P.S. irix sever linux client work perfect without any problem...

I solved the problem with a option sec=sys in exports (linux side) now automount go correctly and mount command don't show any message

Now the problems: toolchest "find shared resource" continue at no work...

I have analized my sys log and i have two errors: "portmap:Address tcp6 family not supported by protocol family" and "portmap:Address udp6 family not supported by protocol family" another error is "sendmail: unqualified host name (Octane) unknown; sleeping for retry"

How do I fix this errors?

I solved the errors with the neko wiki! My hostname is now complete end i have enabled ipv6

Now i have only one error in syslog relative at nsd... it try to find yp and start nis... with no luck, i not use nis! This error is normal?

I have a strange issue... I have fresh installed Irix 6.5 in my Indy, configured all... Dns not work! I able to ping only ip address's, not names!

This is the situation:

-The problem is with ping, netscape ecc...
-My resolv.conf is ok and the nameserver is the ip of the router (i have custom nameserver on it)
-My nsswitch.conf is "Hosts = files dns"
-NIS is off
-Gateway is ok and is the same address of the dns server
-I tried to use google nameserver (8.8.8. without success

If I insert a ip address of one of my servers is ok, if I insert names... no.

I have another Irix machine, one Octane with 6.5.30 and dns resolution work without problems...

What I missed on the way?

Solved!

resolv.conf want domain or search path! But the GUI configuration don't add it.... I have inserted the search path and now is all ok

I have Sgi Indy with R5000 and from specs it also have scsi2-fast interface and in theory have a transfer rate of 10MB/Sec

I have connected a very fast Fujitsu Mas3735np (73gb, 15k rpm, U320) with 68 to 50 pin adaptor and works great! But with diskperf I have the speed limited to 5MB/Sec... Sure the scsi controller of Indy is Fast Scsi? Why not go at 10MB/Sec?

This is a screenshot of diskperf and scsicontrol



I have already closed the jumper of "SE"

Ops... Now is good



Why with filesystem the limit is 5MB/Sec?

I have a problem with my Irix 6.5.22 on Indy, I have 2 minutes of loading pause during boot and 1 minutes for desktop icons appears (without hdd work or cpu busy). For the boot screen I have resolved tuning off esp, but for desktop icons I not found a solution...

I have disabled nfs,nis,automount,autofs,webserver,mediad,ts and ecc... nothing! I have edited nsswitch.conf and removed nis, but nothing.... All users is affected. Why? 4Dwm not have a log file for investigate?

Yes, dns point to my router/gateway (same others computers in the network) and netscape work. (at the moment I not have Nekoware, is a vanilla 6.5.22)

I need to watch indetd.conf?

Yes dns is ok and I able to go in Internet

nslookup point to my router

Solved!

It's very simple... I have a name resolution order: "dns files" and now I have changed to: "files dns" and work great!

Edit: the problem with esp remain... I able to turn off with chkconfig but at shutdown and login show me the annoying message of service disabled. No way for fix or completely remove esp?

what matters is whether it's running or not. as long as it's not running the messages don't matter

Is not possible to disinstall with software manager? What package is?

Is a normal to wait 2 minutes to esp start at boot? Is a 6.5.22 bug?

I already have Octane with 6.5.30 and esp start immediately.

Sorry for resuming this old post, but the link for Macintosh drivers is no longer work... someone have the driver or working link?

You can build e-uae for 6.2 or 5.3?

You can confirm is not easy? Or if you give me the instruction (source and string) I try to compile myself

My r4400 250mhz have 6.2.... is a good idea upgrade to 6.5?
