Pardon me for reviving this thread from the grave, but I was in this precise situation and found a solution.

Chances are you don't have sendmail configured. I commented out all sendmail[] statements in /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf and I can now start and stop fail2ban as I please!

DERP. Missing menuconfig->device drivers: [] Fusion MPT Device Support. Compiling now. hopefully this should be my last kernel compile for a while.

Newest kernel boot, same KP. This time it says #7.

According to the IRC guys that's normal. x86_64 and i386 were merged into x86.

I recompiled, verified that /boot was mounted, copied the kernel over, updated grub.conf, and rebooted, same error.

Okay, I just checked the output... for some reason it built an x86 kernel. This would explain why it's not updating as it should as i've been copying the 64-bit kernel. I'm chrooting ...

Whoops.

the disks for the kernel will appears as sda and /dev/mapper will remain empty as it's not for hardward raid but software volume Derp. You most definitely did tell me that. My apologies for failure to read.

Thanks for the reply.

No this isn't my personal desktop, it's a Dell PowerEdge SC440 server. According to Dell the part number for the RAID controller is UN939, which is listed as "PERC 5/ir SAS PCI-e"

I'm new to installing Gentoo on hardware RAID... I'm using the newest version to date, amd64, on a hardened profile, with hardened-sources. /dev/sda* recognizes all of the partitions on the device. I applied new filesystems to them and started building, assuming the hardware RAID was invisible to ...

vmware overlay it is then!

Man, that was a headache.

I'll report back if I have issues...

I'm working to set up a gentoo box for some dev work on VMware VMs. (take a snapshot from ESX, fire up in VMware Server, test stuff without production risk)

I've been having some roadblocks that I've gotten around, but this one I can't fix. vmware-modules fails every time I've tried to emerge it ...

Okay, I'm an idiot. It should have been eth2 instead of net.eth2 on the interfaces line of my smb.conf. Apparently it was never listening on eth2 because of it!

Still can't connect though. Now it asks for a user and password (it shouldn't need to?!?). I try WORKGROUP\chris with the password I set ...

Still unable to connect from Win7.

I've configured samba according to this guide. It seems that it's rejecting any connection attempts:

Trying to strip a block of HTML code from an email body string (before it goes into a database)

It starts with a <font face='monospace'> tag and ends at the end of the string.

I'm trying to formulate the code I need to accomplish this

I'm a little confused. I'm testing a program that starts with a simple window asking for login and password. If I type a password incorrectly, the authentication fails. If I type it correctly, it succeeds. But if I give no password (String of value "") it still succeeds. Can somebody tell me why ...

I'm working on a ticket tracker application in java that connects to a mysql database. (code below).

I've been following the Gentoo nagios guide, but I'm having an issue with cgi files. When I click links in Nagios it tries to open the respective .cgi file, rather than running its code.

What do I need to do to make it run the code?

<host.domain.tld>

I don't have it set up as www.domain.tld. Does apache set up the www subdomain by default?

EDIT: it seems like it does.

I'll have to check it when I get home from work. My laptop with remote access must have shut down
