Oh my, I think that did it!

On the slow server, /etc/resolv.conf had:
; generated by /sbin/dhclient-script
nameserver 10.10.10.1

and on the fast server, /etc/resolv.conf was:

hey guys,

We have two Sun x2100 servers running RHEL5 in a test environment. Both servers are fresh OS installs and hooked up to the same network switch.

When ssh'ing to one server, there is a...

I am doing some new SOlaris Installs and the man pages do not seem to be included. Do you know how I can add them after the fact?

Thanks!
Aaron

Does anyone know how I stop nfs/lockd and all of the associated services from starting at bootup? There's nothing in the /etc/rc*.d files to rename. That was my first idea. I also tried renaming...

Oh, ok, I was hoping to have something to put in the profile so we could avoid running that command everytime. :D

Thanks! So put that in the .profile statement, without the "#" sign in front? Or is that needed?

Is there a way to edit a .profile file that would let a user have bash as their login shell?

We tried adding:
exec /bin/bash --login

to the .profile, but this produced an endless loop and we...

Thanks guys. Well maybe this was real simple. I thought if I have an /etc/profile, it will be overwritten with the users .profile. It sounds like they can work in conjunction.

Basically, we're installing some new software and we want the path to those new scripts, etc, to be in everyone's profile. But....everyone also has their own .profile, so it sounds like if I set...

Hi, for all of the users on our boxes, we have a .profile in each home directory. That's fine. But I have some PATH statements that I want to apply for ALL users once they log in. And I'm hoping...
