I have a linux server that is exporting NFSv4 as well as NFSv3. I have a Fedora14 client that is defaulting to NFSv4 when automounting NFS shares off of the linux server, and it seems to be causing some problems. All my other linux clients on the network are mounting via NFSv3 without issue, so is there a way I can tell automount to mount the share via v3?

I am pulling my automount maps via LDAP, with an entry in my /etc/auto.master file like so: +auto_master, so I assume it's a bit different than listing options with a regular automount map?

(.i.e. /home --nfsvers=3 fileserver:/DATA)

I am writing a RHEL kickstart script, and in my %post, I need to install a JRE.

Basically, the current setup involves me needing to manually go in after first boot and set the newly installed JRE as the default using the alternatives --config command. Is there a way for me to pass arguments to alternatives so I don't have to manually pick the correct JRE?

I have an OS X 10.6 Server running the iCal service. When users on machines that are bound to Open Directory open their iCal client, it automatically configures their connections to the iCal server at port 8008, even if the user has already manually added their calendar with SSL at port 8443, which results in the user having duplicate calendars.

Is there a way to turn off iCal access for non-SSL connections, or at least the automatic configuration of clients in the Open Directory domain?

I have a server that I rebooted without using the f option in my shutdown command, and it started doing a fsck of a very large filesystem... which will take a very long time, as you can imagine. Is it safe to reboot while this is in progress to get around it?
