Legato Networker packs a sad (it handles sparse files, but it takes a *very* long time to do so). ;-) C ======================================================================= Attention: The information contained in this message and/or attachments from AgResearch Limited is intended only for the persons or entities to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.

I resolved the problem with the PuTTY in XP. but what you mean running/accessible via firewall and system-config-securitylevel? in XP or CentOS? and what is this? can i use samba in centos? and how connect from XP? ----- Original Message ----- From: George Ginis To: ivazquez(a)ivazquez.net Cc: centos(a)centos.org Sent: Sunday, November 06, 2005 11:24 AM Subject: Hi Ignacio Hi Ignacio, apology for my English... my name is George Ginis... what you mean running/accessible via firewall and system-config-securitylevel? in XP or CentOS? and what is this? the PuTTY I have in XP or in CentOS? thank for your answer... By default CentOS doesn't have ftp, telnet, nor rlogin services running/accessible via firewall. Use an ssh client such as PuTTY. And don't forget to use system-config-securitylevel to open the ssh port.

auto hide gnome desktop TOP panel - solved
by Jerry Geis 06 Nov '05

06 Nov '05

I turned on the auto hide of the TOP panel on gnome desktop. I does hide but I still see like 2 or 3 pixel lines of the panel??? How can I completely hide the top panel? I tried change the number of pixels in the panel it always still shows a couple pixel lines. I have a dell inspiron 8200 laptop. THanks, for any suggestions. Jerry -------------- Using gconf-editor path /apps/panel/toplevels/top_panel I found auto_hide_size=6 and change to 0 That seems to have taken care of it. Jerry

Sendmail
by Sam Drinkard 05 Nov '05

05 Nov '05

I am apparently doing something wrong somewhere, as I cannot get sendmail to listen on port 25. I've edited the sendmail.mc, commenting out the daemon process on port 127, rerun the m4 macro, rebuilt per documentation on sendmail, yet I still get a refusal on connection when trying to telnet to port 25. Is there something else I'm overlooking causing sendmail to not listen on port 25? Getting desperate now! Sam -- Snowman

NCP, nprint and ncpfs
by JC 05 Nov '05

05 Nov '05

Hi everyone, I tried to use yum to search for ncpfs-2.2.1-1.i386.rpm, but it couldn't find it. I googled and found this package is included with redhat,but i'm not sure if it's included with CentOS 4.2. Any idea where I can find and install it using yum? Thanks JC

fatal rpm/cpio error
by Akop Pogosian 05 Nov '05

05 Nov '05

How am I supposed to deal with this error? # rpm -Uvh filesystem-2.2.1-3.centos.1.i386.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:filesystem ########################################### [100%] error: unpacking of archive failed on file /home: cpio: chown failed - Operation not permitted # rpm -q filesystem package filesystem is not installed # ls -dlL /home drwxr-xr-x 301 root root 8192 Nov 2 18:25 /home /home mounted from NFS server. Of course, I could unmount /home to install this. But I have many machines like this one and /home can't always be unmounted when we do updates. I personally feel it's a bug in filesystem package. rpm shouldn't blow up like that because of this issue. -akop
