<p>called addr = 947100006, routing on GT<br />
calling addr = 2976, routing on ssn 146</p>
<p>#NOTE the ss7 return route doesn&#8217;t go through the original route, but this doesn&#8217;t matter.</p>
<p>#NOTE gsh create_ss7_sccp_gtrule -rn GtRule77 -tn GtTranslator1 -addr 947100053 -ti 1 -tis 0 -en EntitySet3, the termination</p>
<p>indication here is set to yes &#8211; route on ssn because the CCN uses ssn 11 and 146 for same addr 947100053.</p>
<p>But since it uses routing on GT to 947100006, it will match the gtrule</p>
<p>gsh create_ss7_sccp_gtrule -rn GtRule3 -tn GtTranslator1 -addr 947100006 -ti 0 -tis 0 -en EntitySet2<br />
gsh create_ss7_sccp_entityset_local -en EntitySet2 -opc 2976 -ssn 149</p>
<p>But since ssn 149 is configured, the ss7 stack will send it on ssn 149 to the SGSN application. But no dialogue exists for</p>
<p>ssn 149, the dialogue is for 146.</p>
<p>Then you will see the following alarm in ss7trace.log;</p>
<p>****Â Â TCAP:1Â mIETtcap.cÂ Â 2532Â Â Â Â 1Â Â Â 21Â Â Â Â 1Â Â 107Â Â 15014</p>
<p>TCAP: ERROR IN DIALOGUE IDENTITY<br />
A continue or abort message has been received from a remote node for a<br />
non-existing dialogue.</p>
<p>SOLUTION<br />
&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-</p>
<p>The way to solve this is to configure the CCN to use termination indicator set to YES when routing to the CGSN. This will</p>
<p>force it to route on SSN instead of GT. Therefore it will not match GtRule3 anymore, but it will match (N1 section);</p>
<p>gsh create_ss7_sccp_local_sap -opc 2976 -ssn 146 -nocon 0</p>
<p>Since the CGSN is a live node, we didn&#8217;t make any changes on the CGSN, we changed the CCN instead (CCN is not live).</p>
<p>Now PDPCA is working and SMS over GPRS is too.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>লিঙ্গ সমস্যা:</p>
<p>একবার সরকারের নীতি নির্ধারকদের একটি দল জটিল সমস্যায় পড়লেন।সমস্যাটা লিঙ্গ নির্ধারন সংক্রান্ত।</p>
<p>তো তারা গেলেন খালেদা জিয়ার কাছে।ম্যাডাম, কাঠাল কোন লিঙ্গ ? ম্যাডাম বললেন, এটা নির্ধারন করা কোনো সমস্যা না।আমি আজকেই বাংলা একাডেমীর ডিজিকে বলে দিচ্ছি তিনি জানিয়ে দিবেন।</p>
<p>কিন্তু দুইদিন গেল, ডিজি জানালেন না।তখন তারা গেল এরশাদের কাছে।এরশাদের ঝটপট জবাব-আরে কাঠাল হল পুং লিঙ্গ।কারণ কাঠালের বিচি আছে।</p>
<p>এরপর পত্রিকার খবর বের হল-পুলিশ একদল ছাত্রকে ডান্ডা দিয়ে বেধড়ক পেটাচ্ছে।<br />
আচ্ছা, পুলিশ কোন লিঙ্গ ? জানতে চাওয়া হল প্রধানমন্ত্রী খালেদা জিয়ার কাছে।খালেদা বললেন, এটা স্বরাষ্ট্র মন্ত্রণালয়ে খোঁজ নিতে হবে।সেই খোঁজ আর আসে না দেখে এরশাদের কাছে জানতে চাওয়া হয়।তিনি বললেন যেহেতু পুলিশের ডান্ডা আছে তাই পুলিশ পুংলিঙ্গ।<br />
এরপর প্রশ্ন উঠে আইন কোন লিঙ্গ।এবারও যথারীতি খালেদা জিয়া ফেলটুস।বলতে পারলেন না।অগত্যা আবার কাবিল এরশাদের কাছে জিজ্ঞাসা।তিনি ভেবেচিন্তে বললেন, আইনের ফাঁক আছে, তাই আইন স্ত্রী লিঙ্গ। </p>
<p>Cheers.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Red Hat includes the checkconfig &amp; service utilities to help you manage your start up scripts and save you a lot of typing. This is handy when you&#8217;re adding your own services and also in managing the already existing services. chkconfig is available if you want to use it on other distributions that may not come with it &#8211; just go to freshmeat.net and look it up. /sbin/service is just a shell script that comes as part of Red Hat&#8217;s initscripts package.Without a tool like chkconfig, symbolic links to the scripts in /etc/rc.d/init.d are typically created by hand at the appropriate run levels. This can be messy &amp; difficult to standardize. Also, it is necessary to view the contents of each run level directory to see which services are configured to run. Here&#8217;s some ways to use chkconfig: What&#8217;s enabled at run level 3?</p>
<pre>[root@usr-3 init.d]# <strong>chkconfig --list | grep  3:on </strong>
atd             0:off   1:off   2:off   3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
syslog          0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
sendmail        0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
autofs          0:off   1:off   2:off   3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
network         0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
random          0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
apmd            0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
iptables        0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
sshd            0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
portmap         0:off   1:off   2:off   3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
nfs             0:off   1:off   2:off   3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
nfslock         0:off   1:off   2:off   3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
crond           0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
anacron         0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off
xinetd          0:off   1:off   2:off   3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off</pre>
<p>Enable a service for runlevel 3</p>
<pre>[root@usr-3 init.d]# <strong>chkconfig  wine on </strong>
[root@usr-3 init.d]# <strong>chkconfig --list wine</strong>
wine            0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:off   5:off   6:off</pre>
<p>Disable it</p>
<pre>[root@usr-3 init.d]# <strong>chkconfig wine off</strong>
[root@usr-3 init.d]# <strong>chkconfig --list wine</strong>
wine            0:off   1:off   2:off   3:off   4:off   5:off   6:off</pre>
<p>Checkconfig reads some lines at the beginning of an rc script to determine what run levels the script should be run at. We&#8217;ll use the openssh rc script as our example.</p>
<pre>[root@usr-3 init.d]# <strong>head -8 sshd</strong>
#!/bin/bash
#
# Init file for OpenSSH server daemon
#
# chkconfig: 2345 55 25
# description: OpenSSH server daemon
#</pre>
<p>The chkconfig line &amp; description line must go into every script that is to go under the control of chkconfig. The description line seems pretty self-explanatory. the chkconfig line:</p>
<pre># chkconfig: 2345 55 25
|   |  |
|   |  priority for kill scripts
|   |
|   priority for start scripts
|
run levels at which to start service</pre>
<p>If you&#8217;ve created an rc script for a service, put your chkconfig line &amp; description line in as listed above. Then you need to add your service to those under the management of chkconfig.</p>
<pre>[root@usr-3 init.d]# <strong>chkconfig sshd --add</strong></pre>
<p>Now you can enable it.</p>
<pre>[root@usr-3 init.d]# <strong>chkconfig sshd on</strong></pre>
<p>You can see by looking at listings of the directories that the appropriate links have been created in each of the run levels.</p>
<pre>[root@usr-3 rc.d]# for i in  1 2 3 4 5 6
&gt; do
&gt; ls rc$i.d/*ssh*
&gt; done
rc1.d/K25sshd
rc2.d/S55sshd
rc3.d/S55sshd
rc4.d/S55sshd
rc5.d/S55sshd
rc6.d/K25sshd</pre>
<p>If you didn&#8217;t know, the K links pass a stop parameter to the script and the S links send a start parameter. The numbers determine in what order they&#8217;ll run relative to the other scripts at a given runlevel. The rc scripts are executed in the order you see when you list them in the directory, first the K&#8217;s in numerical order, then the S&#8217;s in numerical order. So at run levels 1 and 6 the script is run with a stop parameter, and in run levels 2,3,4,5 it receives a start parameter. We also see this by running a simple command:</p>
<pre>[root@usr-3 rc2.d]# <strong>chkconfig sshd --list</strong>
sshd            0:off   1:off   2:on    3:on    4:on    5:on    6:off</pre>
<p>Now that you can manage your scripts using chkconfig, here&#8217;s a tip that will save you a little bit of typing. When running an rc script to restart a daemon or what have you, the path is pretty long:</p>
<pre>[root@usr-3 rc2.d]# <strong>/etc/rc.d/init.d/sshd restart</strong></pre>
<p>or you could type this instead:</p>
<pre>[root@usr-3 rc2.d]# <strong>service sshd restart</strong></pre>
<p>Hey, it&#8217;s 9 keystrokes less! It has some other cool features &#8211; get the status on all your services:</p>
<pre>[root@usr-3 rc2.d]# <strong>service --status-all</strong>
apmd (pid 682) is running...
arpwatch is stopped
atd (pid 1151) is running...
cannaserver (pid 985) is running...
crond (pid 1003) is running...
cserver (pid 966) is running...
jserver (pid 946) is running...
gpm is stopped
identd is stopped
ipchains: Incompatible with this kernel
No status available for this package
kserver (pid 1023) is running...

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For UNIX like system shutdown command is the best way to reboot system in a safe way. Whey you issue graceful shutdown command all logged-in users are notified that the system is going down and, within the last five minutes of TIME (if time is specified), new logins are prevented. Shutdown / reboot procedure will stop all services and unmount the file system. Login as root and type the command:<br />
<code># shutdown -r +5<br />
# shutdown -r now</code></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fortunately this can be easily done with openSSH. Just edit the /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and add the desired directives shown below. You don’t need them all, just use what suits you needs.</p>
<p>openSSH provides 4 directives, AllowUsers, AllowGroups, DenyUsers and DenyGroups</p>
<p><code>AllowUsers buddy john doe</code><br />
Only users <em>buddy</em>, <em>john </em>and <em>doe </em>will be able to log in via ssh.</p>
<p><code>AllowGroups sysadmin bkpadmin</code><br />
Only users within groups <em>sysadmin </em>and <em>bkpadmin </em>will be able to log in via ssh.</p>
<p><code>DenyUsers rambo tina</code><br />
This is the opposite of AllowUsers. All users except for <em>rambo </em>and <em>tina </em>will be able to log in via ssh.</p>
<p><code>DenyGroups hr payroll</code></p>
