Pointer to documentation on PCMCIA network cards
by Robert Moskowitz 11 Jan '06

11 Jan '06

A Centos 4.2 workstation install on a notebook with Gnome UI. I have used the system-config-network UI and know a LITTLE bit about ifconfig. ========================================================== How do I 'properly' stop a network card before removing it? Restart it after insertion? Add drivers for: An Orinoco Gold 11b card (the classic. I believe it has the Hermes 2 chips, probably have at least one with the Hermes 1 chips around someplace (I paid $2400 for my first AP and $900 for my first network card years ago)). A DLINK AG660 with the Atheros chipset. A Hawkings card (not with me here in my hotel, can't get model number) with the Broadcom chipset. Of course I did the install on the notebook with a 'classic' 3COM 3CCFE574BT. Got a few different 3COM cards sitting around. But know I have to get wireless working and be able to switch cards.

Selfmade ... Samba 3.0.20a on CentOS 4.0 x64
by Gernot Stocker 11 Jan '06

11 Jan '06

Hi all, has somebody already tried to compile the rpm of the newest samba package on a 64-bit CentOS. I tried to do it with the Fedora spec file and it quit with an error, that some files are not located in the lib64 directory. These required files are located in the lib directory. Any sugesstion how this problem could be fixed in a clean way? How is this problem solved during the CentOS internal package building for x64 packages? Thanks, Gernot -- Gernot Stocker, Institute for Genomics and Bioinformatics(IGB) Petersgasse 14, 8010 Graz, Austria Tel.: ++43 316 873 5345 http://genome.tugraz.at

2 SSH questions
by Robert Moskowitz 11 Jan '06

11 Jan '06

I am away from my office for the week. In Sacramento for the IEEE 802.1 interim meeting (for anyone in the neighborhood...). And I am working on SSH with my Centos install(s). 1) For right now I am using my XP drive with Tectia client. I have SSHed into my Centos server using password method and uploaded my public key and such. I see everything there. I think. I then delete all authentication methods but public key and am told that no recognized authentication match. When I add password back into my client, I get the password authentication method. My hunch is there is something I need to do with the SSH server config to access client certificate authentication? What do I need to do, and remember, all I have is a text window into my machine (can su) and I do not have my VI manual with me! (I will go and look for one online). 2) later this evening, I will pop in my Centos drive and then SSH from a Centos client. But of course my keys and such are on my XP drive. I know where Tectia keeps all of its keys, as I have moved them from one XP drive to another. Anyone know what I need to do? I do have a USB drive for the transfer. Or I can upload everything to my Centos server, then download to my Centos client. Thank you for your continued help. Oh, I have been going back into all of my threads here and pulling out notes on what to do to avoid asking something more than once.

Compile vs. RPM
by Mickael Maddison 11 Jan '06

11 Jan '06

Hello CentOS, I'm an old hat, and have been compiling my own MySQL, Apache, PHP, OpenSSL, ModSSL, etc. for my webservers for years. I'm playing around with the RPM installs on CentOS, and have basically been able to get most things setup so that they "function" about the same. If I could stick to RPM's rather than compiling my own sources, it would save me a fair bit of time, but of course, it would limit the customization benefit. what I'm wondering, is if anyone on this list has any good reasons why one method would be better, more secure, etc than the other. I'm tempted to start using RPM's instead of compile sources. Comments appreciated, thanks. -- Best regards, Mickael mailto:centos@silverservers.com

DNS maybe problems
by Robert Moskowitz 11 Jan '06

11 Jan '06

I am setting up a new DNS server. It will be primary for my domain. This server is in an active subnet with a real public address. It is not setup yet properly in .com, but that is in the works. In the var/named/chroot/etc I added: named.custom (which I 'included' in named.conf) and my various zone files. All the log entries look good. Oh in /etc/resolv.conf, I added my system as one of the namewervers. When I go into nslookup and type any host name I get the error: ** server can't find foo:NXDOMAIN where foo is whatever I typed in. so what else did I forget to change?

CentOS x64 on non-64 bit systems
by Fong Vang 10 Jan '06

10 Jan '06

In our environment, we have a mixture of 32 and 64 bit systems. Would the 64-bit CentOS flavor work 32 bit systems? What kind of impact would this have on performance if the 64-bit OS on 32-bit hardware?

RE: [CentOS] pci sata raid card

Thanks for your help. This IS WHILE installing centos 4.2. I can't install centos because of this problem with the card or the drives (not sure which one). My install is i386 while the drivers that are on the software cd are rhel4 i686.

You need a different image for normal operations. Is this during an install of CentOS, or are you adding it to an already running server? Second ... Precompiled drivers are for a specific kernel version, and if you want to use the precompiled driver, you need to use the kernel it was built for. CentOS kernels WILL USE drivers compiled for RHEL AS IS. I tried looking up that card on the internet, but could find no drivers or website that was in English.

pci sata raid card
by Noel Sanchez 10 Jan '06

Using centos 4.2. Trying to install pci sata raid card, Pacific Digital QM-4300R10. Raid card box reads that it supports linux. raid software has rhel 4.0 dd image. I write to floppy and use linux dd to "try" install drivers on my centos 4.2. I see the card in the list that centos gives me after loading the drivers, but when I try to use them, it doesn't do anything. Nothing works. I've read that rhel 4.0 drivers will not work on centos 4.2. What I do? Is it my sata drives or the pci raid card or both? What is recommended? Should one use regular sata drives and use them on the motherboard and use linux software raid? What do others use? and how? Should one contact Pacific Digital for correct drivers? Do i need to compile centos drivers from the rhel 4.0 drivers? Are there any pci sata raid controllers that work right out of the box on centos 4.2? duel
