DNS is the Domain Name System, which maintains a database that can help your computer translate domain names such as to IP addresses such as 216.148.218.197. As no individual DNS server is large enough to keep a database for the entire Internet, they can refer requests to other DNS servers.

DNS is based on thenameddaemon, which is built on the BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain) package developed through the Internet Software Consortium

Users wants to access by name so DNS will interpret the name into ip address. You need to specify the Address if DNS server in each and every client machine. In Redhat Enterprise Linux, you need to specify the DNS server into /etc/resolv.conf file.

After Specifying the DNS server address, you can verify using host, dig and nslookup commands.

Do the following steps as:

1.vi /etc/mail/local-host-names

example.com

2.vi /etc/mail/sendmail.mc

dnl # DEAMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1,Name=MTA`)dnl

3.m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc >/etc/mail/sendmail.cf

4.vi /etc/mail/access

example.comRELAY

RELAY

5.service sendmail start | restart

6.chkconfig sendmail on

/etc/mail/local-host-names file contains the aliases to hostname. Mail server program reads the /etc/mail/sendmail.cf. To change the configuration on mail server, we should edit the /etc/mail/sendmail.mc file and should generate the sendmail.cf using m4command.

By default sendmail server allows to connect to local host only. So we should edit the /etc/mail/sendmail.mc file to allow connect to other hosts.

By default sendmail server will not forward mail. we should specify on /etc/mail/access to relay or to block mail coming from domain or network or individual email address.

The LVM system organizes hard disks into Logical Volume (LV) groups. Essentially, physical hard disk partitions (or possibly RAID arrays) are set up in a bunch of equal-sized chunks known as Physical Extents (PE). As there are several other concepts associated with the LVM system, let's start with some basic definitions:

Physical Volume (PV)is the standard partition that you add to the LVM mix. Normally, a physical volume is a standard primary or logical partition. It can also be a RAID array.

Physical Extent (PE)is a chunk of disk space. Every PV is divided into a number of equal sized PEs. Every PE in a LV group is the same size. Different LV groups can have different sized PEs.

Logical Extent (LE)is also a chunk of disk space. Every LE is mapped to a specific PE.

Logical Volume (LV)is composed of a group of LEs. You can mount a filesystem such as /home and /var on an LV.

Volume Group (VG)is composed of a group of LVs. It is the organizational group for LVM. Most of the commands that you'll use apply to a specific VG.

1.Verify the size of Logical Volume:lvdisplay /dev/vg0/lv1

2.Verify the Size on mounted directory:df –h or df –h mounted directory name

3.Use :lvextend –L+400M /dev/vg0/lv1

4. ext2online –d /dev/vg0/lv1to bring extended size online.

5. Again Verify using lvdisplay and df –h command.
