When using gimp on centos 5.1 when I select File save it never comes back with a dialog to save the file. Is something broken on gimp? Jerry

OpenSSL binary compatibility between CentOS 4 and 5
by Ed Schofield 13 Dec '07

13 Dec '07

[Re-sending ...] I would like to ask why upstream and CentOS provide no compat-openssl packages like Novell does in SUSE. We are trying to install binaries for gLite (a huge toolkit for grid computing linked against upstream v4 libraries) on CentOS 5. I was under the impression that this would be possible because v5 is "binary-compatible" with v4. But it seems this "binary compatibility" doesn't extend to OpenSSL. What, then, is the scope of the upstream and CentOS binary compatibility guarantees? (OpenSSL is not yet in the LSB; is this significant?) We will probably want to roll our own compat-openssl packages to provide the relevant libssl and libcrypto .so files, using e.g. compat-openldap as an example. Is this something we could contribute? It doesn't seem to exist yet in any repositories linked from http://wiki.centos.org/HowToContribute/Packages. Assuming it makes sense to contribute this, we'd want to do it right. Could anyone outline steps to make the packages secure and compatible? For example, is it sufficient to roll up the .so files from the CentOS 4.xopenssl packages into rpms and add Requires tags for .so files from compat-glibc? Thanks in advance for any help! -- Ed

Tons of SNMP ?errors? in /var/log/messages
by Timothy Selivanow 12 Dec '07

12 Dec '07

I'm running up-to-date CentOS 5 w/ Xen. I'm getting tons (tons = 13787 just yesterday, presumably because I have a monitoring system poll every 5 minutes) of log entries of the following: netsnmp_assert index == tmp failed if-mib/data_access/interface.c:467 _access_interface_entry_save_name() and netsnmp_assert rc == 0 failed if-mib/ifTable/ifTable_data_access.c:209 _check_interface_entry_for_updates() When I do an SNMPWalk, everything looks ok (now that IPv6 is back on) on the host doing the walking, but on the other side it is spewing the above messages. I have not been able to find out anything about these. I had IPv6 turned off (by the "alias net-pf-10 off" method), but in troubleshooting these messages I turned it back on (because there were other snmpd messages complaining about unable to find ipv6 entries). Anyone have some knowledge about this? --Tim ___________________________________________________________________ / No one regards what is before his feet; we all gaze at the stars. \ \ -- Quintus Ennius / ------------------------------------------------------------------- \ \ \ \ /\ ( ) .( o ).

vsifax on Centos 5.1
by Gregory P. Ennis 12 Dec '07

12 Dec '07

All.... I am trying to install vsifax on a 64 bit Centos 5.1 system. The Esker staff have been helpful but no cigar. At first they thought the problem might be related to a 64 bit machine so I tried to install vsifax on a 32 bit Centos 5.1 machine and received the same error. One of their installation scripts is trying to execute a binary called eula which fails. ./eula: cannot execute binary file The tech support of vsifax advised me they had one other customer use Centos 4.5 and succeeded in a vsifax installation. I was hoping whoever had the other vsifax installation might be listening to this list and could give me a hand. Thanks much!!! Greg Ennis

[OT] Connecting to a Windows server via NFS
by Rick Barnes 12 Dec '07

12 Dec '07

Hello, I realize this may be off-topic for this mailing-list, but at this point I am not sure where the problem is continue troubleshooting. We have a server that has Windows Unified Data Storage Server that is supposed the be able to provide NFS shares. I have attempted to setup a NFS share and I think I have it setup correctly on the server. I have the User Mappings created on the Windows server and share setup. When I mount the share from my CentOS server, I get this: # mount -o rw storage:/share /srv/nfs # ls -l total 1 drwx------ 2 4294967294 4294967294 64 Dec 11 14:46 nfs # ls -l nfs ls: nfs: Permission denied My guess would be permissions on the Windows server, but the test it, I have setup "Everyone" to have full control of the share while I test it. If anyone has experience with SFU and would be will to give me some pointers that would be great. Thanks, Rick

I am also trying to select File Open and a dialog box does not pop up to let me open a file. I have straight 5.1 installed. Jerry

Custom Installer Kernel
by Darryl Ross 12 Dec '07

12 Dec '07

Hi All, I'm trying to remaster the boot.iso image with a custom kernel as the nForce based boards I have are not supported by the stock CentOS 5.0 installer, but they are supported by newer kernels. I need this so I can do kickstarted network installs. Is there a howto available for how to go about this? My google prowess must not be as good as I thought as I've not been able to find anything relevant. Thanks Darryl
