The first thing I need is something to list the IP and MAC addresses of a network card and it's DNS. with this I can list it up: MAC: ifconfig eth0| grep -i HWaddr IP: ifconfig eth0| grep -i 'inet addr' DNS: more /etc/resolv.conf | grep -i nameserver these will get something like this: eth0 Link enc...

OK, then I'll set a F12 machine up later cos I gotta test some applications of that before I go ahead with the upgrade. I also read something about data corruption with ext4, but they wouldn't let it out if it was that of a big deal right? didn't they hold it back a while just cos of things like this?

I created xfs volumes before and you might remember that too with your help. So what is best, upgrade to Fedora 12 first and then use ext4 or use xfs and then later upgrade?

My xfs I use now havent had any problems (yet, knock knock )

I'm about to switch some disks due to some sector errors that I've seen lately so I wonder... First, is this possible with this kernel? I just read that it wont. if I can do it, how do I format it? I can't use fdisk or parted cos it seems that they only see 2Tb and not the full 3Tb. Can I skip the p...

DOH, I knew that

so when does "my" version run out?
I use Fedora on my server and that is: FC10

when do I need to upgrade to get... hehe... upgrades(thus patches )

so... you DO use yum....
I'm, gonna tell

nope, not running the GUI thing. whenever I feel like it I do the 'yum update' and that is all in console mode. The only time I use the GUI if for setting up the NIC 'since I have no clue how to do that without help... all the text that should be written in the file for the NIC's. So I'm kinda right...

As you may know I keep on the "crappy" yum for updates since I use Fedora but I want to know when I need to reboot so take use of the new programs installed? I know that some updates that I know I don't use and is not running won't make me to reboot, but there are a lot of stuff that I hav...

lol

I just had this again and this time a module called: ktorrent was having dependency problems, so I removed it and the update worked. Too bad though that I had to check this post to be able to remember it. Hopefully I can remember it next time :) (if that is within like 6 months or I'll forget it aga...

yep that worked, damn you're good

thx again

Just a 'yum update'
I tried the 'package-cleanup --problems' and 'package-cleanup --dupes' but those didn't help.
Have not tried the '--skip-broken' or 'rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest yet'

I get this on both servers: --> Processing Dependency: perl(the) for package: swig-1.3.39-1.fc10.i386 --> Processing Dependency: perl(it) for package: swig-1.3.39-1.fc10.i386 --> Processing Dependency: perl(argv) for package: swig-1.3.39-1.fc10.i386 ---> Package wsdl4j.i386 0:1.5.2-5.4.fc10 set to b...

As I thought the NIC was on the same network so I got the MAC address with all this: ifconfig eth0:0 10.16.201.200 netmask 255.255.255.0 ping 10.16.201.24 arp -an <- this listed the MAC address and finally: ifconfig eth0:0 down Then I sent a mail to my ISP to let them know. Haven't heard anything fr...
