Linux – Redhat Linux: How to know the system configuration

commandconfigurationlinuxrhel

I am using Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.9 (Tikanga).
For installation of any application, it is very important to know the system configuration, is it 32 bit or 64 bit system, Installed OS is 32 bit or 64 bit etc…
Is there any command which provides me information about my system configuration just like Windows provide when go to Control Panel\System and Security\System.

Please suggest…

Use uname:

uname -i

For more information, see

man uname

If you get x86, it means you have 32 bit Linux OS and if you get x86_64, it means you have 64 bit Linux.

Linux – ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)

Error code 49 indicates a wrong password! Please make sure you typed the same password when creating the crypt-hash. Maybe you want to debug this part and use a clear-text password instead a hash at this position in your slapd.conf:

rootpw {crypt}49/WKVk.6oz3o

Btw. which ldap version do you use? Afaik it supports better hash mechanisms, like MD5 or SHA1. Not sure, but there may be a problem with the / in your crypt hash!?
