I saw these links at RedHat about active directory and such while looking for recompiling kernel questions http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_71_2337.shtm http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_71_2336.shtm It might point you to more specific articles that will help. > -----Original Message----- > From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org > [mailto:centos-bounces@centos.org] On Behalf Of Chris Peikert > Sent: Tuesday, April 18, 2006 10:24 AM > To: 'CentOS mailing list' > Subject: RE: [CentOS] Backing up CentOS > > Thanks guys I will look into using Veritas as soon as I > figure out how to > get Windows and Linux to talk. > > -----Original Message----- > From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org > [mailto:centos-bounces@centos.org] On Behalf > Of Barry Brimer > Sent: Tuesday, April 18, 2006 8:42 AM > To: CentOS mailing list > Subject: RE: [CentOS] Backing up CentOS > > > > On Tue, 18 Apr 2006, Chris Peikert wrote: > > > Well the idea is if I can get my CentOS box to communicate > with my Windows > > 2003 network I was going to do a backup and put the backup file on a > windows > > box where I would have Backup Exec put it on Tape.

kernel source 2.6.9-34.EL 4.3
by Peter van Eck 18 Apr '06

18 Apr '06

Hi, I've hit an unpatched kernel issue while trying to build on sources see the header for version details.. arch/i386/kernel/built-in.o(.init.text+0x1585): In function `setup_arch': : undefined reference to `acpi_boot_table_init' make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1 It seems that I would need to install (centos/redhat) patches after installing/building the kernel source tree from the kernel-2.6.9-34.EL.src.rpm Is that correct ?? thanks, Peter

rpm build difference?
by Akop Pogosian 18 Apr '06

18 Apr '06

I noticed a strange thing on my CentOS 4 workstations today. Immediately after installing the tetex suite (tetex-xdvi tetex-dvips tetex tetex-latex tetex-afm tetex-fonts), "rpm -V tetex" reports some package inconsistencies: rpm -V tetex ........C /usr/bin/amstex ........C /usr/bin/bamstex ........C /usr/bin/bplain ........C /usr/bin/lambda ........C /usr/share/texmf/web2c/amstex.fmt ........C /usr/share/texmf/web2c/bamstex.fmt ........C /usr/share/texmf/web2c/bplain.fmt ........C /usr/share/texmf/web2c/cont-en.efmt etc.. After investigating, it appears that these files belong to tetex and rpm -V inconsistencies appear only after I also install tetex-latex. The strange thing about it is that I can't find the definition of "C" in the rpm manual page. Moreover, the entire field where C is printed on CentOS is not printed on RHEL4. I tried looking at the differences in the source RPMs for RHEL 4 and CentOS 4 but couldn't find anything. Any thoughts on the rpm issue? -akop

Since you mentioned BackupExec, I use the backup exec linux agent and it works fine and ties into our centralized backup system for our windows,linux and unix systems. I used to use Mondo Archive (I was going to provide a link but their site is unavailable now...) to create automated cd restore images on a weekly basis. I could then quickly recover via ISO images and then would restore the incremental changes via backup exec. I am using another commercial product now though for the images. -greg > -----Original Message----- > From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org > [mailto:centos-bounces@centos.org] On Behalf Of Chris Peikert > Sent: Tuesday, April 18, 2006 8:08 AM > To: 'CentOS mailing list' > Subject: RE: [CentOS] Backing up CentOS > > Well the idea is if I can get my CentOS box to communicate > with my Windows > 2003 network I was going to do a backup and put the backup > file on a windows > box where I would have Backup Exec put it on Tape.

force 10 megabit full duplex
by William Warren 18 Apr '06

18 Apr '06

I figured out how to force 10 megabit full duplex on my ethernet interface. The trick is i need it to stick in case of a reboot so i don't have to reforce it. I have not been able to figure that one out yet. I have not found it in the man's or google yet. If someone could point me in the right direction i would be much obliged. -- My "Foundation" verse: Isa 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn.

Need? php-iconv-?
by James B. Byrne 18 Apr '06

18 Apr '06

I am experiencing a folder display problem in squirrelmail [SF issue 1471703] which is caused by messages containing a From: header whose data string matches the following regexp: =?iso-2022-jp?B?[.*]=?=[.*] It has been suggested that I require php-iconv extentions to solve this but I seem unable to locate a CentOS or RedHat-EL4 rpm providing this package. Can anyone point me to a location where I can get this package for CentOS-4.3? My current install looks like this: php-4.3.9-3.9 php-pear-4.3.9-3.9 php-ldap-4.3.9-3.9 php-odbc-4.3.9-3.9 squirrelmail-1.4.3a-12.EL4.centos4 As I am a digest subscriber I request that any answers to the list also be copied directly to me.

Automounting Problems (CentOS 4.2 v/s CentOS 4.0)
by Raj Singh 18 Apr '06

18 Apr '06

Hello, Auto-mounting of USB flash-drives and CD-RW (as well as CD-R) was working fine with CentOS 4.0 release for all users. This feature of auto-recognition and mounting is not working with CentOS 4.2 release for any user. I have checked the usual possible points of problems -- fstab, fstab-sync, haldaemon, etc. -- but have found no problems. Any suggestions on other possible work-arounds ? Thanks, -- Raj

Re: [CentOS] Dovecot 1.0.something rpm for CentOS?

I thought, maybe it's meant to require people to import the key first. It looks like when I don't import the key it gets retrieved with each installation (and then discarded), so it's retrieved multiple times instead of just once.
