I have a few servers running Fedora 4 core, And I would like to keep them update using yum. This way I will have the security updates and such. I have been using the command from the fedora.redhat.com website su -c '/sbin/chkconfig --level 345 yum on; /sbin/service yum start' But I do have a few servers that run as postgresql and mysql databases will yum wipe my database if it decides or see an update for mysql or postgres

Hi all, I am currently upgrading a Linux router on my net and I found some problems with the network card: On this new router I am using a 3com590c which works fine when I use the RJ-45 (10/100) conection. This card has an RJ-45, a BNC and an AUI conector. But I have to use the AUI conection. The fact is that it doens't work with the AUI conection, only with a RJ-45/Twisted pair. I have tried to load the module (3c59x) with "options=1", to force AUI conection, but I dont know if the option is correct (1). The cables are all ok, because the old router is up and running just fine, using a 3com Etherlink II. I cannot use this card because its an ISA card, and I dont have ISA slots on the new machine. Is that possible for this card (3c590c) to be damaged only on the AUI conector? (I do the test pinging a machine on the same network, which is my gateway) Is it possible that this gateway is doing a MAC address filtering and I will have to ask the backbone admin to alow my new NIC? I have very little experience with this AUI conections, so any tips would be very helpfull. Thanks a lot. Gustavo Gouvea

Back in those days we used to have to run a 3COM utility (check their web-site), to set the flash ROM to AUI mode. It may not have changed? Have you even checked the 3Com site for support?
