phpMyAdmin-2.7.0 testing rpm is now available for i386 or x86_64
by Jim Perrin 06 Dec '05

06 Dec '05

The following rpm is now available in the c4-testing repository: phpMyAdmin-2.7.0-1.c4.noarch.rpm For security reasons, a phpmyadmin.conf file has been created for /etc/httpd/conf.d/ Currently this restricts phpmyadmin to https, and makes it only available to 127.0.0.1. This forces the user to relax permissions if they require, but should keep a default install reasonably secure. These are all available for install via "yum --enablerepo c4-testing install $APPNAME", or if you don't have the testing repository installed, you can get the .repo file from http://dev.centos.org/centos/4/CentOS-Testing.repo -- Jim Perrin

glibc.spec patch for Xen compatibility/repo

The version of glibc that comes in the Xen-3.0 binary release is 2.3.4-2.9 and is outdated by the new glibc package 2.3.4-2.13 this is a patch to the glibc-2.3.4-2.13.src.rpm to build an up to date xen compatible glibc.

yum-utils-plugins and yum-utils
by Johnny Hughes 26 Nov '05

26 Nov '05

All, In an effort to better distribute files for our users, we have been working with some of the yum-utils-plugins from the yum website. Specifically, we have done some work with protectbase and fastestmirror. Here is the wiki concerning yum plugins: http://wiki.linux.duke.edu/YumPlugins We are currently testing these plugins, and they seem to work well. After a couple weeks of testing, we will move these into the main CentOS tree. Attached is the readme file for the new yum-utils-plugins RPM. If you want to test these plugins, they are currently in the dev.centos.org testing repo ... do this to test: 1. Download the file repo file and put it in /etc/yum.repos.d/ http://dev.centos.org/centos/4/CentOS-Testing.repo 2. Install yum-utils and yum-utils-plugins with this command: yum --enable=c4-testing install yum-utils yum-utils-plugins 3. Enable plugins in yum by editing the file /etc/yum.conf and adding this line: plugins=1 4. To use the protectbase plugin, edit your repos in /etc/yum.repo.d/ and add the following lines to repos you wish to protect (ie, the Official CentOS repos): protect=1 and add the following to third party (or other repos) which you want to use, but do not want to update/upgrade packages that are part of the protected repos: protect=0 see the attached readme file for an example. 5. To use the fastestmirror plugin, make sure you have the plugins=1 in /etc/yum.conf (see number 4. above) and then edit your /etc/yum.repos.d/ repos and add more than 1 mirror (as baseurl= ) for some of your repos ... see the attached readme file for some examples. Currently, the verbose setting is high for fastestmirror ... you may adjust that in /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/fastestmirror.conf. We will probably make this verbose=0 on final release. 6. There are other plugins that are not enabled by default .... you can see all the plugins in /usr/share/doc/yum-utils-0.3.1/plugins To enable a plugin that is not currently enabled, copy the .py file from it's directory to /usr/lib/yum-plugins/ and it's .conf file to /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/ (and make sure that /etc/yum.conf has a plugins=1 line in it) yum-utils is also installed. See the README in /usr/share/doc/yum- utils/ for all the commands you can do with yum-utils. ---------- Thanks, Johnny Hughes

Re: [CentOS-devel] New XFS code for the CentOS-4 Kernel from SGI

I would personally prefer if this XFS code could be merged into the CentOS Plus kernel. Having it as a separate RPM is a bit messy. If anyone is interested, I've done this and it's available as a patch to the existing kernel-2.6.9-22.0.1.106.unsupported.src.rpm via: http://home.btconnect.com/james/centos4/ BTW: what is the significance of '106' in the unsupported kernel name?

kernel-sourcecode RPM?
by Charlie Brady 22 Nov '05

22 Nov '05

I notice that CentOS 4.2 has no kernel-sourcecode RPM, unlike 4.0 and 4.1. Is that intentional or an oversight? --- Charlie

New XFS code for the CentOS-4 Kernel from SGI
by Johnny Hughes 22 Nov '05

22 Nov '05

The new XFS file system code from SGI is now available on the CentOS-4 Developer's testing site. You can install the dev-testing repo from here: http://dev.centos.org/centos/4/ And putting the CentOS-Testing.repo file in your /etc/yum.repo.d/ directory. You can then install the new xfs module on the standard centos i686 or x86_64 kernels. You have to pick the proper kernel that you are running. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Here is the command that would install the XFS module and the minimum required XFS tools: yum install dmapi xfsprogs xfsdump kernel-module-xfs-`uname -r`-0.1-1 -------------------------------------------------------------------- This will install the just released XFS code from SGI. BUT ... this code is still not 100% working with 4K stacks (which all EL 4 and FC 3/4/5 kernels currently use). A note from SGI on this code: ################################################################# # # # NOTICE # # This xfs module rpm has been provided for testing purposes # # only. It is believed to be functional, but it has not been # # heavily tested. In particular, you may have issues with the # # 4KSTACKS option on RHEL4 ia32 kernels, depending on your IO # # hardware, layering, nfs usage, etc. # # # # Please do NOT report any problems with this module, or with # # the kernel when this module is loaded, to Red Hat. # # You may report issues to the linux-xfs(a)oss.sgi.com list. # # (Please also report successes!) # # # ################################################################# You may also report successes and failures to the CentOS-Devel list. I installed this and ran 15 full tests with Bonnie++ on the XFS partition without any errors. I was using a PATA drive and a pIII 800 Mhz PC. ------------------------------------------------------ NOTE: This will not run currently with the CentOS Plus kernel, as XFS is already compiled as a module on that kernel. After some testing here (if all goes well), a new CentOS Plus kernel w/out XFS will be compiled and this code will also be moved (with instructions) to the CentOSPLus repo. ------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: After completing the install of the XFS code, you should edit /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Testing.repo and set the line: enabled=1 TO enabled=0 to turn off the testing repository for CentOS-4 until you want to upgrade items from it again. This repo will get other Alpha/Pre Release type code in it and you would not want to accidentally overwrite stable CentOS packages during updates. --------------------------------------------------- Thanks, Johnny Hughes CentOS-4 Lead Developer
