Scientific Linux 6.0 released (based on RHEL 6.0)
by Arun Khan 02 Sep '11

02 Sep '11

I know this is the CentOS list. However, as there has been some interest in CentOS 6.0 (RHEL 6), I thought I'd share the news here. Scientific Linux 6 is based on RHEL 6 with add-ons for scientific computing. FWIW, the Admin tools etc. are pretty much the same as in RHEL, so are the base packages.

Intel 82599 driver?
by Lars Hecking 22 Aug '11

22 Aug '11

Which version of the ixgbe driver is included in 5.6? I went through all the RHEL5 release notes, but they only ever state that the driver was updated, not which devices was added. This device is not supported up to CentOS 5.5 (2.0.44-k2), but the latest driver from the Intel web site works fine (3.2.10). 05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation Unknown device 151c (rev 01) 05:00.0 0200: 8086:151c (rev 01) Subsystem: 8086:a03c Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 170 Memory at de400000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2M] I/O ports at ecc0 [size=32] Memory at de3f8000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Expansion ROM at de200000 [disabled] [size=1M] Capabilities: [40] Power Management version 3 Capabilities: [50] Message Signalled Interrupts: 64bit+ Queue=0/0 Enable- Capabilities: [70] MSI-X: Enable+ Mask- TabSize=64 Capabilities: [a0] Express Endpoint IRQ 0 Capabilities: [e0] Vital Product Data Capabilities: [100] Advanced Error Reporting Capabilities: [140] Device Serial Number 2c-cf-9a-ff-ff-21-1b-00 Capabilities: [150] Unknown (14) Capabilities: [160] Unknown (16)

Redirecting PHP error messages into a log file
by Alexander Farber 30 Jun '11

30 Jun '11

Hello, I'm using CentOS release 5.5 x86_64 with the stock php-5.1.6-27.el5 and would like to redirect PHP messages into /var/log/httpd/php_log First I tried adding that file name to /etc/php.ini: error_log = "/var/log/httpd/php_log" and restarted httpd, but the file didn't appear. I've touched it and changed owner to apache.apache, but that didn't help. Then I've changed that line to error_log = syslog and now I get the messages in /var/log/messages: Jul 29 21:29:24 hXXX httpd: PHP Notice: Undefined index: REMOTE_ADDR in /var/www/html/odnoklassniki/index.php on line 44 Jul 29 21:29:45 hXXX httpd: PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[' in /var/www/html/odnoklassniki/index.php on line 44 I still would like to move those message to a separate file though, so I've added the following line to /etc/syslog.conf and reloaded syslogd service: httpd.* /var/log/httpd/php_log but the file is still empty. Any hints please? Thank you Alex -- http://preferans.de

Lingering dhclient issue
by Alfred von Campe 23 Jun '11

23 Jun '11

I recently reconfigured some CentOS 4.3 systems that were using DHCP to use static IP addresses. At the same time, the systems were moved to a new VLAN. Here is the approximate sequence of events that took place: 1. ifdown eth0 2. edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 with static IP address 3. wait for network folks to reconfigure switch 4. ifup eth0 I may have reversed steps 1 and 2 on some of the systems. The problem was that the dhclient process didn't go away, and kept renewing the old lease. Our DHCP server is configured to contact the DNS server and update the entry for each host it serves. So the DNS entries for these systems were pointing to the old address in the old VLAN. The eth0 interface itself just kept the static IP address for which it was configured. It took me a while to figure out what was going on. My question is, what could I have done to avoid this (other than killing the dhclient process)? Is there a better way to reconfigure an interface to use a static address? I am not interested in solutions that involve using a GUI (i.e., only command line solutions). Thanks, Alfred

CentOS 5.6 - Samba server + Windows error 233
by Guy Boisvert 14 Jun '11

14 Jun '11

Hi! I have upgraded my servers yesterday to CentOS 5.6 via yum update. Everything went smoothly except that i have client workstations not part of the domain that are not able to access the samba server anymore. The samba server is part of the domain. We recently added Windows 2008 R2 DC. Everything was working smoothly until the CentOS update. I had a Win7 Workstation that i had success connecting when using the "net use" command: net use g: \\sambaserver\share /user:domain\username The mapping worked right away and didn't even asked for the password. Normally, before the CentOS upgrade, i'd put \\sambaserver in the UNC line of the Windows Explorer and i'd get a box asking for credentials. Entering "domain\username" as user and giving the password in the password line was working. Not anymore. I have another XP workstation on another subnet (router wide open) and the mapping with the command line as specified above doesn't even work. For this subnet, i have to use the IP address because the workstations on it use a DNS which isn't aware or active directory (and cannot change this). samba-3.0.33-3.29.el5_6.2 samba-common-3.0.33-3.29.el5_6.2 Here is my smb.conf: =================== [global] workgroup = DOMAINNAME realm = DOMAINNAME.COM server string = Servername File Server socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 security = ADS encrypt passwords = yes passdb backend = tdbsam password server = * preferred master = No local master = No domain master = No cups options = raw hosts allow = 10.0.2., 10.0.3., 127., 10.0.4.40 pam password change = Yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *New*Password* %n\n *Re-enter*new*password*%n\n *Password*changed* username map = /etc/samba/smbusers unix password sync = Yes log level = 1 syslog = 0 log file = /var/log/samba/%m max log size = 50 smb ports = 139 name resolve order = bcast hosts time server = Yes printcap name = CUPS show add printer wizard = No add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -m '%u' delete user script = /usr/sbin/userdel -r '%u' add group script = /usr/sbin/groupadd '%g' delete group script = /usr/sbin/groupdel '%g' add user to group script = /usr/sbin/usermod -G '%g' '%u' add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -s /bin/false -d /tmp '%u' shutdown script = /var/lib/samba/scripts/shutdown.sh abort shutdown script = /sbin/shutdown -c # separate domain and username with '\', like DOMAIN\username winbind separator =+ # use uids from 10000 to 20000 for domain users idmap uid = 10000-20000 # use gids from 10000 to 20000 for domain groups idmap gid = 10000-20000 # allow enumeration of winbind users and groups winbind enum users = yes [homes] comment = Home Directories read only = No browseable = No writable = yes [Videotheque] comment = Fichiers MPEG2 path = /home/Samba/Videotheque read only = No available = Yes public = Yes writable = yes admin users = domainname+user1,domainname+user2,domainname+user3 TIA, Guy Boisvert

CentOs 5.6 and Time Sync
by Mailing List 12 May '11

12 May '11

Hi, I have upgraded my Dell C151 to the latest 5.6. I have always used ntp to sync this machine and then the rest of the machines in the network would sync from it. Since the update I cannot keep the right time on the machine. This is with / without ntp. I have attempted various scenario's with no luck. I am now trying the old kernel now as I type this out. If anyone else has any links or ideas that I should check out It would be greatly appreciated. Just a quick note about my setup. I do not use any gui. As mentioned I have not had any issues with this machine and it's time until I upgrade. AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+ 3gb of ram. TIA. Brian.
