23 Dec '07

Hello, Got a 2gb mp3 player. The issue is it needs a usb2 card and the only available one is on a centos 5.1 box. I was wondering how do i get this device to show up? I'd like to share it's directories via samba, so that windows users can manipulate it's files, add more, etc. Thanks. Dave.

Install question
by Jeffrey Ross 23 Dec '07

23 Dec '07

I have been running Fedora for a number of years and have decided that for my mailserver system (which doubles as a small time web server) I want to go to an OS that has a supported lifespan of more than a year, especially since this machine has in the past been up longer than a year without reboots. The machine that it will ultimately host the OS is a dual processor P3 machine with 2GB of RAM (the machine was free and is normally running idle so cpu isn't an issue), I also plan on (continuing to) running software RAID 1 on this system. So I'm not rushed into an install I plan on installing the OS on different hardware My questions are several. 1) The build hardware is only a single processor with 768MB of memory (also a P3) what if anything will I need to do to enable the second processor? (I'll make provisions for a larger swap space at build time) 2) The build hardware won't have a second disk usable for RAID, is it possible to build the RAID as degraded during the install? Or am I better off building it as a non RAID system and transfer everything to a RAID disk later? 3) The system bios will allow me to boot off the network, can I do an install from that boot? there is no CD/DVD reader in the box, nor is there a floppy drive. USB (flash?) may possible, but it is USB1.0 (1.1?) and quite slow and I'm not 100% positive the BIOS will support booting from a USB device. Any other caveats to be aware of? My experience with linux has been several Fedora (core) releases some Redhad releases prior to that, and many many many years ago slackware (when the install was a stack of diskettes!) TIA, Jeff

saslauth in postfix 2.2 on CentOS 4
by Kanwar Ranbir Sandhu 22 Dec '07

22 Dec '07

Hi All, I have a mail server with CentOS 4 (fully updated) running dovecot and postfix. I have a couple of virtual domains, so I've setup postfix and dovecot accordingly. That is, dovecot is doing the auth for internal hosts, and postfix is handling sending/receiving for both domains. What I want to do now is open up pop3s and smtp over TLS, which will give me access to my two domains from external clients. The pop3s bit was easy, and my tests have been successful. The hard bit is the smtp over TLS. Since I'm using dovecot to handle the authentication, how do I tell postfix that the sasl auth should be passed to dovecot? I know how to do this in CentOS 5 since it has postfix 2.3, and that version has support for dovecot authentication. So far, I haven't been able to figure out how to do the same thing in CentOS 4 and postfix 2.2. Any tips? Regards, Ranbir -- Kanwar Ranbir Sandhu Linux 2.6.22.9-61.fc6 i686 GNU/Linux 14:41:05 up 4 days, 13:10, 3 users, load average: 0.12, 0.06, 0.07

System freezes with i8042_panic_blink on suspend
by Olaf Mueller 22 Dec '07

22 Dec '07

Hello, I am using CentOS 4.6 (2.6.9-67.plus.c4) on a toshiba tecra 8000 notebook. If closing the panel, "Panel Power On/Off" is enabled in bios, the notebook does suspend. But after opening the panel, the notebook completely freezes. If the suspend only takes a few minutes, then everything is working fine. But if the suspend takes a time more than five or ten minutes, the system completely freezes. The error message is: [<c032bbe7>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb [<c032007b>] xfrm_find_acq_byseq+0x100/0x10f Badness in i8042_panic_blink at drivers/input/serio/i8042.c:992 [<c0254fe6>] i8042_panic_blink+0x188/0x1a0 [<c0123ea2>] panic+0xf7/0x142 [<c010cd7a>] set_rtc_mmss+0x6c/0x204 My system: # cat /etc/grub.conf | grep kernel kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-67.plus.c4 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 noapic acpi=off rhgb quiet # lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 440BX/ZX/DX - 82443BX/ZX/DX Host bridge (AGP disabled) (rev 02) 00:04.0 VGA compatible controller: Neomagic Corporation NM2200 [MagicGraph 256AV] (rev 12) 00:05.0 Bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ISA (rev 02) 00:05.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE (rev 01) 00:05.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 USB (rev 01) 00:05.3 Bridge: Intel Corporation 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 ACPI (rev 02) 00:09.0 Communication controller: Toshiba America Info Systems FIR Port (rev 23) 00:0b.0 CardBus bridge: Toshiba America Info Systems ToPIC97 (rev 05) 00:0b.1 CardBus bridge: Toshiba America Info Systems ToPIC97 (rev 05) 05:00.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2561/RT61 802.11g PCI The system freezes too, if com-ports and sound is disabled in bios. Could the network controller 'RaLink' causes this problem? I am using the centosplus kernel cause of its support for isa sound cards. Is there an other kernel with that I could avoid this panic? Thank you very much! regards Olaf

by Jerry Geis 22 Dec '07

22 Dec '07

Hi all, I was running centos 4.5 with not issues on my main box. I updated to (fresh install) to 5.1 Things run fine except I use vnc alot from home to connect back into my machine and sometimes on connecting it is crashing the vnc session and then it kills my entire login session. Is anyone else having this on 5.1? This is my modules section in xorg.conf Section "Module" Load "dbe" Load "extmod" Load "fbdevhw" Load "glx" Load "record" Load "freetype" Load "type1" Load "dri" Load "vnc" EndSection It worked flawlessly on centos 4.5. Any ideas about how to get it not to crash. Jerry

4.6 update overwrote my /usr/lib/python2.3/site.py file
by Jeff Larsen 21 Dec '07

21 Dec '07

We had some custom additions to our site.py file for a third party application. 'yum update' to 4.6 overwrote the file with no backup or warning. Not hard to repair, but it did have me worried there for a few minutes when the application failed to start. Is this a python issue, an upstream issue or a CentOS issue? Can something be done about it going forward? Jeff

SCSI bad block table display
by Hugh E Cruickshank 21 Dec '07

21 Dec '07

Hi All: Is there a utility available that will allow for the dump/display of the bad track table of a SCSI drive. We had this capability on SCO OSR5 but I have not been able to locate anything similar for Linux. The closest I have found is the badblocks utility that is part of the e2fsprogs package but this appears to only test for bad blocks not display the current bad block table contents. I have done quite a bit of searching with Google but either it does not exist or (more than likely) I am using the wrong search parameters. TIA Regards, Hugh -- Hugh E Cruickshank, Forward Software, www.forward-software.com

File description left open in LVM
by Reuben D. Budiardja 21 Dec '07

21 Dec '07

Hello, I used to have LVM on my machine to combine the capacity of a hard drive and a partition on a different drive as one volume group. I had problem with one of the disk but I was able to remove all the data of the computer, and replace the disk, and add another disk Now I want to start over and create LVM again. However, I keep getting this message: # vgdisplay File descriptor 128 left open File descriptor 129 left open No volume groups found # pvdisplay File descriptor 128 left open File descriptor 129 left open What does this mean ? Also, in /etc/lvm I found archive/ and backup/ directory which seems to refer to my old LVM, and also .cache. Are they safe to remove ? Thank you for any help. RDB

Dear All, My Requirement is 1. I am taking backup from client to server and i configured floating IP Address at the client 2. From primary or secondary server rsync command will be triggerd via floating IP Address to the client PC I am using the following rules in firewall scripts /sbin/iptables -F INPUT /sbin/iptables -F OUTPUT /sbin/iptables -F FORWARD /sbin/iptables -F RH-Firewall-1-INPUT # Default Rule /sbin/iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT /sbin/iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT /sbin/iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT Rsync Source NAT rules is iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -p tcp -s 192.168.13.179 --dport 873 -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.13.83:873 192.168.13.83 is floating ipaddress 192.168.13.179 is primary ipaddress 192.168.13.110 is secondary ipaddress The following rules is working fine . But the problem is at every trigger of rsync command we will restart the iptables and firewall scripts, then only it will works fine. If the services are not restart then it will send the following error message "rsync: failed to connect to 192.168.13.100: Connection timed out (110) rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(94)" I need to solve the following "iptables and firewall restart" issue in Cluster Suite Setup.

Postfix Configuration Setup for 2+ domains
by Rick Barnes 20 Dec '07

20 Dec '07

Hello, I have a client that wants to have a dedicated smtp sending host. But they have 2 separate domains then that don't want to have share IP address. The reasons from this is long and drawn out. Is it possible to setup postfix in a virtual host config, like apache for example, such that, domainA.com listens and sends on one IP address and domainB.com listens and sends on another address. This host is simply a email forwarding host, so no user accounts are on the server, they have about 5 servers serving websites for 2 domains and subdomains and want email coming from a common source for both domains (this will be the relayhost for the web servers). I have it setup to listen to 2 ip addresses but as of now I get: 220 smtp.domainA ESMTP Postfix on both addresses. Is there a way to have one address show as: 220 smtp.domainA ESMTP Postfix and the other: 220 smtp.domainB ESMTP Postfix More importantly, email send via 1 should look like it came from that domain and email sent to the other look like it came from its domain. I can find info on virtual domains, but its geared for receiving email for multiple domains. Thanks, Rick

Problem after crash during yum update
by Alfred von Campe 20 Dec '07

20 Dec '07

I was doing a "yum -y update" on a CentOS 4.5 system to get to 4.6 when my system froze. I couldn't ping it nor switch to an alternate console. It was completely frozen. The only recourse was to cycle the power. So I did that, and now when I try to do a "yum update" I get the following error: [many package header downloads deleted] tkinter-2.3.4-14.4.el4_6. 100% |=========================| 21 kB 00:00 ---> Package tkinter.i386 0:2.3.4-14.4.el4_6.1 set to be updated ---> Downloading header for oprofile to pack into transaction set. oprofile-0.8.1-33.i386.rp 100% |=========================| 20 kB 00:00 ---> Package oprofile.i386 0:0.8.1-33 set to be updated --> Running transaction check --> Processing Conflict: python-devel conflicts python < 2.3.4-14.4.el4_6.1 --> Processing Dependency: kdebase = 6:3.3.1-6.el4 for package: kdebase-devel --> Processing Dependency: httpd = 2.0.52-32.3.ent.centos4 for package: httpd-manual --> Processing Dependency: xorg-x11-devel = 6.8.2-1.EL.31 for package: xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-devel --> Processing Dependency: rpm = 4.3.3-22_nonptl for package: rpm-build --> Processing Dependency: xorg-x11-deprecated-libs = 6.8.2-1.EL.31 for package: xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-devel --> Processing Dependency: httpd = 2.0.52-32.3.ent.centos4 for package: httpd-suexec --> Processing Dependency: rpm = 4.3.3-22_nonptl for package: rpm-devel --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: python-devel conflicts with python < 2.3.4-14.4.el4_6.1 Error: Missing Dependency: kdebase = 6:3.3.1-6.el4 is needed by package kdebase-devel Error: Missing Dependency: httpd = 2.0.52-32.3.ent.centos4 is needed by package httpd-manual Error: Missing Dependency: xorg-x11-devel = 6.8.2-1.EL.31 is needed by package xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-devel Error: Missing Dependency: rpm = 4.3.3-22_nonptl is needed by package rpm-build Error: Missing Dependency: xorg-x11-deprecated-libs = 6.8.2-1.EL.31 is needed by package xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-devel Error: Missing Dependency: httpd = 2.0.52-32.3.ent.centos4 is needed by package httpd-suexec Error: Missing Dependency: rpm = 4.3.3-22_nonptl is needed by package rpm-devel From the attached log file, you can see that yum was able to install/ update 120 packages before it crashed. Any ideas on how to recover from this state? Alfred

Hello All, I write in hope that there is a person willing to contact me and assist in setup a server that is being hosted by ServerBeach, this is for a non-profit , I don't know much about this stuff and I would like to get it setup so I can do the things that I need to do which is get the website up and running.

Resizing a Xen DomU disk image
by Matthew Lind 19 Dec '07

19 Dec '07

Hello Mailing List! A quick question. Has anyone gotten a resize (in my case grown) a Xen DomU disk image? Here is the procedure I have followed: 1. Install a DomU using virt-install Customize xvda to be all one partition ext3 2. On Dom0: dd if=/dev/zero bs=1G count=1 >> <my_disk_image> ll -h (Image is now 1GB larger) xm create <DomU> On DomU: df -h (Size has not changed) shutdown -h now On Dom0: e2fsck -f <my_disk_image> (Errors Bad Magic...) resize2fs -f <my_disk_image> (Errors Bad Magic...) xm create <DomU> On DomU: df -h (Still reports old size) I am assuming that because resize2fs didn't run that the DomU doesn't know about the additional space. Thanks in advance!
