Dear Linuxers, We have Red Hat 9 Personnel Edition. We install Custom-Everything onto the Desktops requiring DB2. Previously we installed DB2 Version 7.1 on Red Hat Linux 7.2. For us Installing Db2 same version onto Red Hat 9 is first time. It installs all the components. But the last before successful completion, it should creates a DB2 Instance. It is creating a problem there. I'm attaching db2setup.log file for your reference. Hoping of early reply, Thanks for help. Pankaj Sarda EDP - Breach Candy, Cell No: 98208 - 15827.

tcpdump and iptables
by Subba Rao 23 Jun '03

23 Jun '03

I am using iptables on my system. It is very basic setup that denies all outside connections. When an outside connection is attempted, the packet is dropped and logged into the syslog. When I run tcpdump on the same interface, I do see a lot of ARP requests and bootps/bootpc (UDP) requests. Why are these attempts not logged into syslog? Is it because ARP requests are a lower level protocol? Another question is, when a legitimate packet is allowed and climbing the TCP/IP stack, who (iptables or tcpdump) gets to see the packet first? -- Subba Rao subba9(a)cablespeed.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Old American Wild West saying: God created men but Colt made them equal.
