Network Install Problems
by Nick Wales 03 Nov '05

03 Nov '05

Installation over the network has seemingly failed, for the second time. Everything goes smoothly until about 1/3 to 1/2 of the way through the downloading packages stage, at which point it hangs (both times its been 8% through a package, not sure if this is of any significance, 1st time cups and now gawk). I set the install to look on the mirror.centos.org site and use the centos/4/os/i386 folder. For the second attempt I chose a server install, with no additional packages... hoping this would help, apparently not. Its been hung for about 30 mins now, I would've thought this isn't normal, but maybe someone can enlighten me. Nick

openssl update
by Brad Olin 03 Nov '05

03 Nov '05

Hi all, Just a quick Q on the new openssl update. I recently converted from wbel3 to centos3, so my installed version of openssl _seems_ newer than the new version. Below are some details that may help... So the question is... should I force the install of the newly released version? # find /var -type f -name openssl096b* -print /var/cache/yum/base/headers/openssl096b-0-0.9.6b-16.i386.hdr /var/cache/yum/updates-released/headers/openssl096b-0-0.9.6b-16.i386.hdr /var/cache/yum/updates-released/headers/openssl096b-0-0.9.6b-16.22.3.i386.hdr /var/cache/yum/update/headers/openssl096b-0-0.9.6b-16.22.4.i386.hdr /var/cache/yum/update/headers/openssl096b-0-0.9.6b-16.42.i386.hdr # rpm -qa | egrep openssl openssl-devel-0.9.7a-33.17 openssl-0.9.7a-33.17 # I'd also like to add my thanks to the kind people who are providing the updates. Thanks Brad

Upgrade 4.1 --> 4.2 Question
by Thom van der Boon 03 Nov '05

03 Nov '05

Hi, I am in the proces of upgrading my CentOS 4.1 servers to 4.2. I've burnt CentOS 4.2 CD's from the ISO images (these images work because I already installed a new server with it), but I am unable to upgrade the existing servers to 4.2 using the CD's.... Does anybody have a clue, why this is not working... or is the online update option the only one... Thom

firewall dilemma
by JC 03 Nov '05

03 Nov '05

Hi everyone, I have this problem that I'm not sure what's the best solution for it. I need your input & help... I have an internal network behind a hardware firewall. All traffics go thru. the firewall. One of the firewall's rules is that it doesn't allow internal network accesses internal resources that travels outside then come back. In the other words, it drops all packets originate from inside the network that travels outside and then come back to access internal resources. For example: I have web server (used internal ip 10.1.1.10) behind the firewall, internal network can access this web server with http://10.1.1.10, but they can't access http://www.mydomain.com. Assume that I have static IP (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) maps to 10.1.1.10 and dns record www.mydomain.com points to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx What I want is to allow users inside the network be able to access http://www.mydomain.com instead of http://10.1.1.10 Here is my question: should I change the rule of the firewall? If so, is there a security risk? Is there any other solution for this? By the way, I don't have an internal DNS, I use my ISP DNS service. Thank you so much for your help, JC

RE: [CentOS] Has anyone successfully used centos 4 as an iscsi CLIENT/w CHAP?
by Drew Weaver 03 Nov '05

03 Nov '05

Well, Im using an Adaptec Snap 4500 and I've had nothing but problems with it, initially I thought it was an issue with CHAP authentication so I completely disabled authentication and the kernel is still reporting in dmesg and /var/log/messages that it cannot authenticate with the target /boggle... On a side note, I know the iscsi slice works because I can connect to it just fine on Windows XP pro. So go figure :-) ;-) -Drew -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org [mailto:centos-bounces@centos.org] On Behalf Of Robin Mordasiewicz Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2005 4:43 PM To: CentOS mailing list Subject: Re: [CentOS] Has anyone successfully used centos 4 as an iscsi CLIENT/w CHAP?

I am curious as to how this works. We are expecting a IPSAN device to arrive and Iam hoping iSCSI under CentOS will work _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Does the rest of the world have a route back to the server for that new IP address? That is, you may be using the VPN address as your source and the server side as your default gateway so the packets go out, but you need routes back for the return packets. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

Has anyone successfully used centos 4 as an iscsi CLIENT /w CHAP?
by Drew Weaver 02 Nov '05

02 Nov '05

I am having a very hard time getting iscsi to work with CentOS 4, if I put the same exact settings into the Microsoft ISCSI initiator it works great, however I continually get authentication errors from the kernel driver for iscsi when I try it on my *nix machine. Any advice? Thanks, -Drew
