Editing File Associations in KDE

Editing File Associations in KDE

[Sadanapalli, Pradeep Kumar (MED, TCS)]

Hi All,
I want to change the default file associations in KDE . From there on,
if I create a new user, he should inherit these modified file
associations as default. How can I do this?
If I edit KControl->File Associations, will the changes be only effected
to root and do they become default for the users created thereon? How do
I edit these associations manually by editing some files? On the whole ,
I want to change the default file associations permanently. Please help
me. I am running RedHat 8.0 with KDE. Thanks in advance...

Routing Problem

[lance turner]

I am having difficulty permanently adding a route to the routing table.

I used the following command to add a route:

route add -net default gw 192.168.1.3 dev eth0

This resulted in the following routing table:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags   MSS Window  irtt Iface
192.168.1.0     *               255.255.255.0   U         0 0          0 eth0
127.0.0.0       *               255.0.0.0       U         0 0          0 lo
default         192.168.1.3     0.0.0.0         UG        0 0          0 eth0

But after restarting, the routing table changes to this:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface
192.168.1.0     *               255.255.255.0   U     0      0        0 eth0
127.0.0.0       *               255.0.0.0       U     0      0        0 lo
default         192.168.1.254   0.0.0.0         UG    0      0        0 eth0

Which does not work. The server can not get to the gateway and thus to the internet.

I also checked the/ proc/net/route file, and it matches what is displayed by "route" and "netstat -r".

/proc/net/route before restart

Iface	Destination	Gateway 	Flags	RefCnt	Use	Metric	Mask		MTU	Window	IRTT

lo	0000007F	00000000	0001	0	0	0	000000FF	0	0	0                                                                                 
eth0	00000000	0301A8C0	0003	0	0	0	00000000	0	0	0                                                                               

/proc/net/route after restart:

Iface	Destination	Gateway 	Flags	RefCnt	Use	Metric	Mask		MTU	Window	IRTT                                                       
eth0	0001A8C0	00000000	0001	0	0	0	00FFFFFF	0	0	0                                                                               
lo	0000007F	00000000	0001	0	0	0	000000FF	0	0	0                                                                                 
eth0	00000000	FE01A8C0	0003	0	0	0	00000000	0	0	0     

The following is the from the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file:

DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=static
BROADCAST=192.168.1.255
IPADDR=192.168.1.7
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.1.0
ONBOOT=yes

Obviously I'm doing something incorrect, but I'm not sure what. 

Any idea why the routing table is being modified at startup? What do I need to do to permanently set the routing table?

thanks,

on "6-6-2003" "lance turner" writ:

: route add -net default gw 192.168.1.3 dev eth0

... i'm just guessing here, but shouldn't the device be something like
'eth0:0' or 'eth1'.  this to me seems self-referential.

    in addition, i thought 192.168.x.x protected space, and not reachable
from the internet.  i would suspect the 'gw' "address" to be one
your ISP maintains.  here at 206.124.156.176/29: 176 is the network
address, 177 my gateway to the internet, 178 this domain, and so on.

    if yours is a 'stand-alone' system, then your local network is of no
consequence, because it will change.


: Any idea why the routing table is being modified at startup? What do I
: need to do to permanently set the routing table?

    in '/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-routes' it uses:

"grep "^$1 " /etc/sysconfig/static-routes | while read device args; do".

    now, i was going to suggest you take a look at 'static-routes', but
noticed that i'm not using it here.  now, i don't know what to say ...


-- 
... i'm a man, but i can change,
    if i have to , i guess ...

Make sure /etc/sysconfig/network has the following line in it:

GATEWAY=192.168.1.3

--Jo
