YUM and RPM often freezes my computer
by Dave Gutteridge 20 Aug '05

20 Aug '05

Sometimes when I attempt a YUM install, it will get to the point where it is looking for packages to install, and my hard drive will make a lot of noise, but there is no progress. My mouse cursor freezes, and I can not switch between programs or kill the process. Eventually I have to reset the computer in order to get control back. The same thing will also happen when I install an RPM. When it checks for dependancies, it will freeze up my computer in the same way. This happens about 50% of the time. However, after resetting and rebooting the computer, if I attempt the same install again, it will work fine. Also, this may or may not be related, but in the case of YUM, when it's installing multiple RPMS, sometimes it will install only some of them, and then stop, without any explanation. If I repeat the install, then it will install the remaining packages, and complete the process. Any possible explanations for this behaviour? Dave

Poprelayd parser released for Dovecot on RHEL 4
by dan1 20 Aug '05

20 Aug '05

Hi all. For those of you who are interested by using Poprelayd, I just made a fix today for using Dovecot and sendmail with poprelayd. Poprelayd allows you to log the IP addresses of people logging in through POP and allowing them to send e-mails using your smtp server (allowing relaying) for 15 minutes. It is very handy. You can download the parser here: http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=21494 It is just a little info that might be useful for some people. Kind regards, Daniel

configuring a program vs installing rpms (giftui)
by Dave Gutteridge 20 Aug '05

20 Aug '05

I decided to try the program giFT, and went to their web site to see what to do. It wasn't clear at first that any RPMs would be available, so I tried installing it using configure, make, and make install. It was only after trying to find a GUI interface, and I decided on giFTui, that I discovered that RPMs were available. So I downloaded and isntalled them, and then found an incon in my Applications menu. Unfortunately, clicking on the menu to start giFTui doesn't start the program. I get a little notice in the bottom of the screen saying that giFTui is starting. And then it goes away and the program hasn't started. Is it just that giFT, or giFTui, is unstable, or did I mess things up with my previous attempts to manually install the program? And is it possible for me to tell which is the problem? Dave

please notice that at this url http://www.centos.org/modules/smartfaq/faq.php?faqid=13 that there might actually be some misrepresentation of others based upon what i have read in this thread.... or the other... i deleted all my messages and had to cut and past the subject from the online archive... sorry. ummmmm it is Fedora Core and not Fedora Linux right? or am i missing something? im trying to understand..... does Red Hat have a license to say "Linux" and CentOS does not so that Red Hat can say Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Red Hat Linux X.x and CentOS is just a distribution that has linux in it or??? i know i am somewhat confused. anyone? - rh -- Robert Hanson Abba Communications http://www.abbacomm.net

Does anyone know how to setup wildcard DNS using bind? I am working on a small network that will be mobile and not connected to the internet. What I'd like to happen is no matter what URL a user might type in, their browser always goes to the same website located on the same mobile LAN. Mike
