Server Tutorials but written in Spanish
by Erick Perez 06 Feb '07

06 Feb '07

this message is mostly for the spanish speaking people on this list. To avoid reinventing the wheel, i was doing a google search for centos based server tutorials but in spanish. I found several things, but not much. I am looking for tutorials about: How to setup postfix with centos, dovecot, creating rpm, apache,bind I will teach some unix basics to my students (Oh God!) but I'm a lazy teacher and I don't want to write from scratch. Pointers for manuals will be gladly accepted (centos/rpm based). Otherwise, I will have to write 'em from scratch. thanks, -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Erick Perez Panama Sistemas Integradores de Telefonia IP y Soluciones Para Centros de Datos Panama, Republica de Panama Cel Panama. +(507) 6694-4780 ------------------------------------------------------------

vsftp
by John Hinton 06 Feb '07

06 Feb '07

I'm having an odd behavior with vsftp on all CentOS 4 servers... maybe 3 too, but I'm not on those much. I am transferring in port mode as I've never managed to get passive to work with a firewall running. Anyway, this is what happens. During normal transfers with few files.. it works perfectly. During the transfer of like a large website with hundreds of files in various directories, from a fast connection, vsftp stalls out with a high degree of consistency. I thought this was happening only when I was doing this locally through the intranet, but I have now discovered our outside users are having the same problem when they are on a hi speed connection. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening? Thanks, John Hinton

Problem with 2.6.11.4 kernel and e1000 driver
by Mark Hull-Richter 06 Feb '07

06 Feb '07

I get the following results when I try to load the 2.6.11.4 kernel with an Intel e1000 driver (the one that comes in the kernel source): 1) If I build it into the kernel, nothing shows up at all. 2) If I build it as a loadable module, I get errors on eth0 and eth1 that the MAC address is different than expected, and it ignores the controller. What's up with this? Thanks. mhr

KDE oops
by Ted Miller 06 Feb '07

06 Feb '07

I realize this may technically be "off topic", but I have made all the icons on my KDE desktop disappear. It is something in the KDE setup in my /home/tmiller/... setup, as my wife's icons work fine. It is probably the result of something I deleted or moved in moving my home directory from Mandriva 2006 to Centos 4. The files are all in /home/tmiller/Desktop, but they don't show up on the desktop. Neither do the device icons, or any other icons. I have the Configure-Desktop -> Behavior -> General -> Show icons on desktop box checked, but the don't show. I hope someone will recognize my problem and be able to help me with 10 seconds of typing. If no one knows what I have done I will quietly go looking for a KDE forum or mailing list to plead my case in. Ted Miller Indiana

Recommendations for Lexmark Z11 driver install?
by Bart Schaefer 06 Feb '07

06 Feb '07

I've "inherited" an old Lexmark Z11 and would like to plug it in to my CentOS 4 box as a second printer. I shut down, hooked it up to the parallel port, rebooted, and hwbrowser recognizes it on /dev/lp0, so I ran through setting it up as a queue with printconf-gui. However, printing the test page fails because the renderer "lz11.foomatic" is not found (details below for anyone who wants to read that far). A quick look at linuxprinting.org leads me to the lz11 project. I've downloaded lz11-V2-1.2 which contains lz11.foomatic, but after reading through the installer shell script I'm not exactly happy about what it's going to do to my rpm-based cups install (clobber files in the foomatic directories and drop a whole lot of utility scripts in /usr/bin, among other things). Any advice on how best to proceed would be appreciated: What's the least disruptive way to do the upgrade? As an aside, why does printconf-gui allow one to select a printer for which the driver is not installed? (Should lz11.foomatic be available from somewhere else, and I simply haven't installed all the right centos packages?) __________ Here's the rundown of what I've tried so far, starting with the log output when the test print fails: I [04/Feb/2007:20:33:06 -0800] Adding start banner page "none" to job 4. I [04/Feb/2007:20:33:06 -0800] Adding end banner page "none" to job 4. I [04/Feb/2007:20:33:06 -0800] Job 4 queued on 'Lexmark' by 'root'. I [04/Feb/2007:20:33:06 -0800] Started filter /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstops (PID 6400) for job 4. I [04/Feb/2007:20:33:06 -0800] Started filter /usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip (PID 6401) for job 4. E [04/Feb/2007:20:33:06 -0800] PID 6401 stopped with status 1! I [04/Feb/2007:20:33:06 -0800] Hint: Try setting the LogLevel to "debug" to find out more. I [04/Feb/2007:20:33:06 -0800] Saving printers.conf... If I look with "lpq" I find: Lexmark is not ready Rank Owner Job File(s) Total Size 1st root 4 testprint.ps 15360 bytes (Jobs 1-3 were previous failed attempts at printing the test page, which I deleted with lprm.) Any clues as to why "Lexmark is not ready"? "lpstat -a" says: Lexmark accepting requests since Jan 01 00:00 Obviously that date is a bit wacky. I tried "lpc": lpc> status Lexmark: printer is on device 'parallel' speed -1 queuing is enabled printing is enabled no entries daemon present So I rebooted again, and now lpc shows exactly the same but lpq says: Lexmark is ready no entries However, printing the test page still fails with exactly the same "stopped with status 1" error. (The printer remains "ready" now, even after the job fails.) So I set LogLevel debug as suggested and this appears to be the relevent part of the output: D [04/Feb/2007:21:45:18 -0800] [Job 6] renderer command: lz11.foomatic --papersize=letter --color=0 --inksaving=1 --resx=582 --resy=582 D [04/Feb/2007:21:45:18 -0800] [Job 6] renderer return value: 16777215 D [04/Feb/2007:21:45:18 -0800] [Job 6] renderer received signal: 16777215 D [04/Feb/2007:21:45:18 -0800] [Job 6] Process dying with "The renderer command line returned an unrecognized error code 16777215.", exit stat: 1 D [04/Feb/2007:21:45:18 -0800] [Job 6] The renderer command line returned an unrecognized error code 16777215.
