unsupported sector size 4096 on /dev/sda
by Rene Salmon 19 Sep '06

19 Sep '06

Hi list, I just received a storage array and created a 3TB LUN with a block/sector size on the disks of 4096. When I boot the our centos-4.4 box attached to this array I get the "unsupported sector size 4096" message: Remounting root filesystem in read-write mode: [ OK ] ERROR: unsupported sector size 4096 on /dev/sda. No RAID disks Setting up Logical Volume Management: [ OK ] Checking filesystems Checking all file systems. [/sbin/fsck.ext3 (1) -- /scratch] fsck.ext3 -a /dev/hdb1 /scratch: clean, 90/14663680 files, 485450/29304560 blocks [ OK ] Mounting local filesystems: [ OK ] Any ideas as to why centos does not like the 4096 sector size on /dev/sda? What are the supported sector/block sizes in centos on disks/LUNs? Eventually I will be creating an LVM and ext3 file system on this. Any one know what the file system size limits on LVM/ext3 are? Thanks in advance for any help on this.

RE: [CentOS] ssh key question
by Alex Palenschat 19 Sep '06

You generate the key pair on the client (what you called the parent) and then copy the public portion to each server (what you called the child). Here is a quick Google that I think should help: http://itt.theintegrity.net/pmwiki.php?n=ITT.SSHKeyManagement alex > -----Original Message----- > From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org > [mailto:centos-bounces@centos.org] On Behalf Of bruce > Sent: Tuesday, September 19, 2006 9:37 AM > To: 'CentOS mailing list' > Subject: [CentOS] ssh key question > > > hi... > > if i have a machine that i want to be able to automatically > ssh into multiple child machines within the network, do i > have to create a key for the parent machine, and supply the > key to the child machines, or do i create a key for each > child machine, and supply the keys to the parent? > > thanks > > > _______________________________________________ > CentOS mailing list > CentOS(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos >

by Ivan Arteaga 19 Sep '06

19 Sep '06

Hi List, First time posting here^^ I had installed centos 4.3, working fine with the built-in samba package but I cannot see the swat package installed. Does somebody know if it's installed by default with samba or it should be installed separately? Any comment will be appreciated. Regards, --Ivan. BTW.. tried the yum update and install and got this output [root@mail ~]# yum install swat Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories update 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 base 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 addons 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 extras 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 Reading repository metadata in from local files Parsing package install arguments No Match for argument: swat Nothing to do

OT: Openwebmail and speedcgi suidperl

Hi, I use Centos 4.4, latest rpm for OWM. OWM runs fine but i want to enable speedy, so after I enable it I get the error: Not a perl script at /dev/fd/9 line 1., referer: http://mywebserver/ speedy_backend[3633]: perl_parse error, referer: http://mywebserver/ speedy[3631]: Cannot spawn backend process, referer: http://mywebserver/ my speedy is installed from RPM. perl-CGI-SpeedyCGI-2.22-1.2.el4.rf openwebmail-2.52-1 perl, v5.8.5 built for i386-linux-thread-multi Server version: Apache/2.0.52 Linux Centos 2.6.9-42.EL # ls -la /usr/bin/speed* -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 51865 Dec 25 2005 /usr/bin/speedy -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 105324 Dec 25 2005 /usr/bin/speedy_backend all my openwebmail .pl scripts call #!/usr/bin/suidperl -T and I want to change them to speedy. However it seems that the speedy rpm is not? suid compiled. Can you suggest how to add the suid capability to the RPM? or maybe another method?

Firewire question (Centos 4.4)
by chrism＠imntv.com 19 Sep '06

19 Sep '06

Assuming I have a firewire card with a supported chipset, is there anything special I need to do in order for the kernel to recognize the card? Shouldn't kudzu "wake up" and configure the card when I boot up after installing it? This is a brand spanking new 4.4 system and a supported Agere chipset firewire card. I'm having trouble tickling devices connected to the card. In particular, I'm trying to mount a firewire external DVD device. Lspsi shows the following so I *thought* the kernel found the card: [ritz@localhost ~]$ /sbin/lspci 00:06.0 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 PCI (rev 07) 00:07.0 ISA bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 LPC (rev 05) 00:07.1 IDE interface: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 IDE (rev 03) 00:07.2 SMBus: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 SMBus 2.0 (rev 02) 00:07.3 Bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 ACPI (rev 05) 00:0a.0 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8131 PCI-X Bridge (rev 13) 00:0a.1 PIC: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8131 PCI-X IOAPIC (rev 01) 00:0b.0 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8131 PCI-X Bridge (rev 13) 00:0b.1 PIC: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8131 PCI-X IOAPIC (rev 01) 00:18.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] HyperTransport Technology Configuration 00:18.1 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Address Map 00:18.2 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] DRAM Controller 00:18.3 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Miscellaneous Control 00:19.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] HyperTransport Technology Configuration 00:19.1 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Address Map 00:19.2 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] DRAM Controller 00:19.3 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 [Athlon64/Opteron] Miscellaneous Control 01:01.0 RAID bus controller: 3ware Inc 9550SX SATA-RAID 02:05.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 10) 02:05.1 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5704 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 10) 03:00.0 USB Controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 USB (rev 0b) 03:00.1 USB Controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 USB (rev 0b) 03:04.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Rage XL (rev 27) 03:05.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB Live!

Gnome Desktop Screensaver Security Lock Override?
by James B. Byrne 18 Sep '06

18 Sep '06

We deployed our first CentOS-4 based workstation this past spring to see if we can conveniently replace all, or at least most, of our MS-Win based user systems with Linux boxes instead. Generally this trial unit has proved a success but there is one lingering problem that I cannot seem to find a straight-forward answer to: Is there an administrator override to a user's password protected screensaver terminal lock? So far the solution seems to have been brute force system resets and I am not happy with this caviler approach to what should be a simple, and safe, administrative procedure. So, is there an equivalent function to MS-Win's administrator login to force entry into a locked terminal and make it available for others?
