Apologies for sending again, I did not include the correct perl grep the first time. Please forgive the temporary idiot and do not feed the trolls. :-) Greetings again :-) On this particular production centos 4 mail server system if I rpm -qa | grep perl I get... perl-Filter-1.30-6 newt-perl-1.08-7 perl-DateManip-5.42a-3 perl-libwww-perl-5.79-5 perl-XML-Encoding-1.01-26 perl-Time-HiRes-1.55-3 perl-CDB_File-0.94-1.2.el4.rf perl-Archive-Tar-1.30-1.el4.rf perl-URI-1.30-4 mod_perl-1.99_16-4.centos4 perl-HTML-Tagset-3.03-30 perl-Parse-Yapp-1.05-32 perl-XML-Parser-2.34-5 perl-XML-Dumper-0.71-2 perl-libxml-enno-1.02-31 perl-5.8.5-36.RHEL4 perl-IO-Zlib-1.04-1.2.el4.rf perl-Digest-SHA1-2.07-5 perl-Net-DNS-0.48-1 <------------------------- ***** perl-Statistics-Distributions-1.02-1.2.el4.rf perl-DBI-1.40-8 perl-HTML-Parser-3.35-6 perl-libxml-perl-0.07-30 perl-Digest-HMAC-1.01-13 perl-Parse-Syslog-1.03-1.2.el4.rf perl-Mail-SpamAssassin-3.1.7-1 perl-suidperl-5.8.5-36.RHEL4 right now I am focusing on perl-Net-DNS-0.48-1 and I want to figure out how to migrate to the latest version of Net::DNS on the http://www.net-dns.org/ website or learn if .59 has been rolled into the upstream and therefore to centos 4 or ??? i ask this as I am leary of upgrading production centos servers via CPAN I am looking to list wisdom to get some direction to help solve this one first please. I have researched the basics yet if I may please get a little help to continue going in the right direction I would be most grateful. I am sure I will want to add or upgrade some of the others as well. Ummm much of this is in relation to Spamassassin 3.1.7 issues Please chime in on creating a new RPM or using CPAN and any other ways that you folks are dealing with this pleasae? Thank you and kind regards - rh -- Robert - Abba Communications Computer & Internet Services (509) 624-7159 - www.abbacomm.net

Centos 4.4 install on ASUS A8V-VM does not find SATA drives
by Don Levey 17 Jan '07

17 Jan '07

Yes, I know someone last week asked a similar question (Problem with ASUS P5VD2-X X SATA II) but the only answer I saw on that thread was the equivalent of "I've heard it's bad so I won't do it." Unfortunately, that doesn't help me much. The BIOS does indeed recognise my two SATA hard drives, and I've got the BIOS set to "IDE" (which disables "hardware" RAID but not the SATA but itself). The install routine for Centos, however, does not seem to recognise that the drives are there (or even that the VIA bridge exists via auto search); if I try to manually select it I'm told it found a VIA VT86c100A Rhine-II PCI (via-rhine). Setting to AHCI does not seem to have an effect. I was hoping to use software RAID, and so didn't want to enable RAID on the motherboard. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to either nudge the installation, or configure the hardware, to find the SATA drives so I can configure RAID? This is a NEW install on new drives, so it's not as if I've got an existing configuration I'm trying to augment. Thanks in advance, -Don

dhcpd errors
by Kanwar Ranbir Sandhu 17 Jan '07

17 Jan '07

Hello Everyone, I'm running a dhcp server on CentOS 4.4. It's providing IPs and remote booting for a number of thin clients. I've recently had problems rebooting a few thin clients. Here is the error I've been seeing: Jan 16 14:16:45 at01 dhcpd: DHCPRELEASE from 00:40:63:e5:71:4f specified requested-address. Jan 16 14:16:45 at01 dhcpd: DHCPRELEASE of 10.1.1.150 from 00:40:63:e5:71:4f via eth0 (not found) Depending on the thin client, the MAC and the IP changes. Otherwise, the errors are all the same. The effect on the thin client end is that it doesn't get an IP, and so it doesn't boot. The usual remedy is to unplug/plug-in the cat5 cable at the thin client, or to move the thin client to another network drop. This has me thinking there's a problem with the cat5 cabling (the office is going through a major renovation). But, I'm not 100% that is the case. It could be a problem with the dhcp server. I don't have easy access to that office - it's remote, and I'm only out there once every few months. It's why I want to make sure it's not a software problem first. At the moment I have no clue what's going on. My searching with google hasn't turned up anything useful. I'd appreciate any comments/suggestions.
