Is there an equivalent command or application to "sockstat" as in the BSD camp under CentOS? How about systat ? Thanks... -- Snowman

Incompatible Libraries
by Sam Drinkard 04 Sep '05

04 Sep '05

Fellow users, I'm running into some rather odd behavior trying to compile some software, and would like to know if there is maybe a fix or if I should revert back to a 32-bit version of Centos. I'm trying to compile NCAR Graphics, as well as some other weather related software on this machine which is running the Centos 4.1 x86-64 version. It's a dual Xeon processor. I've installed all the required rpms, i.e., xdevel, xaw, etc. The problem I'm seeing is during linking of the various packages, where I get messages of "skipping incompatible /usr/X11R6/lib/libXaw.so when searching for -lXaw". I see similar other messages when trying to link to -L X11, and so forth and so on. I've got the correct paths set in the makefiles, but not sure I understand why the libs are being shown as incompatible. If any of you have built ncarg on the x86-64 OS, I'd sure like to hear from you, and what you did to effect the compile. Thanks.. Sam -- Snowman

[OT] Services for Unix being built into Win2K3-R2
by Johnny Hughes 04 Sep '05

04 Sep '05

I found this article about Microsoft SFU being built into the new Windows 2003 Server R2 very interesting. http://news.com.com/Microsoft+makes+Unix+changes/2100-1016_3-5845790.html?t… What does this signify? Is Windows ready to really co-exist with Unix / Linux ... or are they going to try and provide similar functionality because they recognize it is better technology moving forward?

Accents in filenames on vfat filesystem
by dan1 04 Sep '05

04 Sep '05

Hello. I am trying to create a text file that contains an accent like 'é' in it's filename on a vfat filesystem. This generates an error like the following: "testé.txt" E212: Can't open file for writing I have made a 'modprobe nls_cp850' and 'modprobe nls_iso8859-1' to load those needed modules. Then I mounted my FAT32 partition like this: mount -t vfat -o iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 /dev/hdb1 /samba_backups The mount succeeded but I still cannot create or copy a file that has an accent in it's filename. Of course I can create without any problem a file without any accent once the filesystem mounted the same way. It seems that other people on other systems are having no problems. Does somebody knows what happens and what I am doing wrong, and that would have any suggestion ? Thank you. Daniel

CentOS bootstrapper for chroot(2) environment
by Jan Kratochvil 04 Sep '05

04 Sep '05

Hi, just some script built along: Unattended install & run CentOS-4.1 just using chroot(1). Mostly a surprise for me it was so easy to reach that goal. It requires rpm(1) based host OS and it was tested only on Fedora Core 4. I needed it to do only a bit customized CentOS kernel package rebuild. Regards, Lace

installing on 915GAVL motherboard kernel bombs and/or X bombs
by Jerry Geis 03 Sep '05

03 Sep '05

I got a new box today. 915GAVL motherboard. Celeron 2.4G 1 GIG mem 80GIG SATA drive. When I boot centos I have had various stages of success. Once I got as far as partitioning the disk manually and X blew and the machine rebooted. Couple times I have had kernel crashes at different stages of install. I have not has trouble installing before and was wondering if there are suggestions. I did try installing without X "linux text pci=noapci" and that stopped also. All anaconda says is "install exited abnormally". I went ot the hardware monitor portion and seems stable CPU temp at around 48-50C. Any ideas? Jerry

question on cut
by Jerry Geis 02 Sep '05

02 Sep '05

I am trying to use cut to tell me the suffix of a file. for example: echo /home/silentm/log/file.machine.log | cut -d . -f 1- I was expecting to get .log or log but I get the entire string echoed back. doing the opposite gave me what I expected: echo /home/silentm/log/file.machine.log | cut -d . -f 1 gives me /home/silentm/log/file I am trying to find a way to test if the file ends in .log? How might I do that. Thanks, Jerry
