Disk Image Installation Must Complete
In Red Hat Linux 9, if the installation processis aborted anytime during installation,
the diskimage created will not work.
Tofix this issue, you must delete the disk image, and use the Create a New
Emulated Drive option to restart the installation process.
Firewall Prevents NIS From Working
In Red Hat Linux 9, NIS does not function after a fresh installation due to the
firewall blocking a NIS broadcast reply.
Tofix this issue, lower the firewall setting from the default of “High” to a lower
setting.
Note – If you choose the “No Firewall” option during installation, you must choose
that option again after installation is complete, since Red Hat automatically defaults
to the “High” option after installation.
This is a known Linux Red Hat bug and is currently under investigation.
