VoIP FXS port?
by Robert Moskowitz 26 Aug '15

26 Aug '15

Does anyone know of an VoIP FXS port other than the one for Raspberry PI: http://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=86601&p=716025 Or if this will work on other boards like my Cubies? One of the targets I have for C7-arm is a PBX and support for a fax machine to efax is a critical component particularly with the detarrifing of PSTN coming in the next few months (well rule making by FCC, we will see what each state does).

Missing packages compiled
by Nicolas Repentin 26 Aug '15

26 Aug '15

Hello When I'm trying to install my favorites services on banana pi, I saw some packages missing from C7 pre-alpha repo. So I have compiled some packages on the BPi, using sources downloaded on my Centos7 x86_64. Actually I've compiled missing packages to install pcs (cluster system) : - corosync* - pacemaker* - sdb My repo is actually behind a low connection (above 1MB/s in upload), so it can't be use by all, but you can access it if you want to get the packages and add them to c7 armdev repos. http://repo.shivaserv.fr/centos/7/armv7hl/Packages/ I will add others packages in the future.

sata boot
by Robert Moskowitz 26 Aug '15

26 Aug '15

I have not tested this yet, as I am working on the sernet stuff first, but... The version of uboot we are using supports sata boot. Kind of. You still need a microSD card that ONLY has uboot on it. Thus it can be a small, cheap, mSD card. You put all of your partitions on your sata drive and it SHOULD boot right up. I have tested this in F22, but I have not done it yet with the pre-alpha and my Cubies. I believe it works with the BananaPi as well (and other Allwinner SOCs with sata). You cannot put uboot on NAND yet, don't try until Hans reports he has it working, and he has higher priority work items. If you want to boot from USB HD, ask me, and I will send you the notes Hans sent me; he is open to someone else doing the little bit of work for this and he would see it gets upstream. I have also ordered a sata multiplexer board that Hans uses. I want more than one sata drive on my file server. It also allows for RAID if that is your druthers. I will report when I get it working. Finally uboot 2015.10 is wrapping up and it probably will include Cubietruck WiFi support. Of course you can add a WiFi usb dongle now, but it will be nice to be able to use the included wifi.

samba sernet for arm
by Robert Moskowitz 25 Aug '15

25 Aug '15

Sernet is the integrated Samba software: http://www.samba.plus/ Suppose to have everything you need for an AD, currently based on Samba 4.2. For RHEL/Centos, it has to provide its own Kerberos due to the different kerberos used by Redhat vs Samba. This is SUPPOSE to be fixed in Samba 4.3; perhaps this year. It IS available for Centos7-x86_64 at: https://portal.enterprisesamba.com/ But of course no arm builds there. If someone can help me with setting up the build environment, I would take a hack at building for armv7l. I don't know what they have done with the various pieces. I probably could just try for their Samba 4.1 which is the same version in Centos7. Anyone here interested in helping me out on this?

sernet
by Robert Moskowitz 24 Aug '15

24 Aug '15

Has anyone worked with sernet? Can I expect it to build on C7-arm? Particularly the armv7l base? My current thrust with C7is to build a new Samba server. I would like to do a full AD, but that means sernet becuase of the Kerberos differences on Centos vs Samba AD. If I can't I can probably stay with my current NT domain model that is running on ClearOS and just move the config files. Note that ClearOS is on Samba 3.6.23.

2nd day with C7 pre-alpha on Cubietruck
by Robert Moskowitz 23 Aug '15

23 Aug '15

So I see how little is there. Well at least selinux is running disabled, so I can move sshd to a different port without semanage. Since no ntp function, no date time update. Well this is pre-alpha. Speaking about pre-alpha and the status of the armv7hl development, now that AArch64 is launched, will effort be applied here? I have NO experience with github and have looked at the rbf information and don't have a cue how I can build any images myself. So I either need a lot of education, or some newer images for me to work with. And a repo of armv7fl rpms to work with! So any pointers would be appreciated.

armv7 kernel and uboot version
by Robert Moskowitz 22 Aug '15

22 Aug '15

I am asking this to find out what capablities I have for my Cubietruck. For example, there is a multiport sata card like: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-To-5-SATA-2-0-Port-Multiplier-Card-3Gbps-SATAII-R… you can use. The otg usb port is almost working. And with patches (soon to be moved upstream) the wifi works. I see that the kernel I cannot get working yet is 4.2.0-0.rc2 (I have rc6 on f23a and still would need to patch that for wifi), but I can't figure out which uboot is on the image. Plus whatever is there was part of the pre-alpha, as my understanding, you would have to dd any new .bin to the boot SD card. Oh, also all you really need on the SD card is uboot. You can put all the rest on your sata drive. A USB drive does not work yet, but Hans says it would not be hard for someone that knows dracut to work that out and provide the instructions to get included upstream.

I installed Chrony and rsyslog, neither were in the minimal pre-alpha image. I see NTP starting and date is getting set. journalctl was already present thanks On 08/19/2015 04:48 PM, cc35359(a)gmail.com wrote: > Chronyd and rsyslog should both be available via the special yum repos > pointing to the plague builds, if they weren't in your base install. > You should also have the journalctl command at you disposal. > > > > > On August 19, 2015 11:42:53 AM CDT, Robert Moskowitz > <rgm(a)htt-consult.com> wrote: > > > On 08/18/2015 12:20 PM, Robert Moskowitz wrote: > > Since no ntp function, no date time update.

semanage error
by Robert Moskowitz 18 Aug '15

18 Aug '15

/etc/selinux/config has selinux as disabled and maybe that is why the error, but I would not expect that to be the cause... anyway: # semanage port -a -t ssh_port_t -p tcp 614 SELinux: Could not downgrade policy file /etc/selinux/targeted/policy/policy.2. SELinux: Could not open policy file <= /etc/selinux/targeted/policy/policy.29:y /sbin/load_policy: Can't load policy: No such file or directory libsemanage.semanage_reload_policy: load_policy returned error code 2.

dependency errors with installing ntp
by Robert Moskowitz 18 Aug '15

18 Aug '15

Not knowing what to install for ntp, I tried: yum install ntp* And got the following errors: Error: Package: ntp-perl-4.2.6p5-19.el7.centos.noarch (c7buildroot) Requires: ntp = 4.2.6p5-19.el7.centos Installing: ntp-4.2.6p5-19.el7.armv7hl (c7pass1) ntp = 4.2.6p5-19.el7 Error: Package: ntp-doc-4.2.6p5-19.el7.centos.noarch (c7buildroot) Requires: ntp = 4.2.6p5-19.el7.centos Installing: ntp-4.2.6p5-19.el7.armv7hl (c7pass1) ntp = 4.2.6p5-19.el7 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest Just doing: yum install ntp got at least ntp installed. But afterwards: yum install ntp* still gets these messages.
