Hi,

I had been running a Redhat 9 Linux server. Today when i ran nmap I
saw a new entry called Elite using port 31337. I disconnected the
computer from the network and tried to restart the machine. On
restarting it went to INIT-2.05b
prompt. Is there anyway i can restore my server back?:((

I removed this hard disk and tried to make this a secondary hard drive
on another redhat linux machine(whose hard disk will serve as the
primary hard disk.) in the hope that i can mount the second hard disk
and browse the contents and make backups..After i install the
corrupted hard disk along with the good redhat linux hard disk, and
restart it, it shows the primary hard disk(the good redhat disk) info
and then it just hangs. I read some where that the second hard disk
should be automatically be detected by the redhat machine, but it
doesn't get there..Does it matter if the hard disks on both the
machine are named hda? Is there a way to rename one of them to hdb? I
know all these must be stupid questions..I am kind of new at this..

Can anyone please help me? I'll be eternally grateful..

Thanks,
Ann
