dell 2950 servers and centos 4 or 5
by Robert - eLists 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Greetings Part of this may be OT Anyone running CentOS 4 or 5 with the newer Dell 2950 servers? Mainly thinking in terms of basic Internet facing applications Anything special to report good or challenging? Any hardware or drivers issues? Anything not to order as an option or not do? Should one stick to dual core or go to quad core? Does it really matter? What is the best way to order raid1 and raid5 storage on these units with and without hot plug Will either way keep the deployment of CentOS easy and happy. I am used to ordering and deploying hp proliant intel rackmount servers using 3.5 hotplug scsi Im not that familiar with the terms on the dell website for SAS (cant tell if hotplug) although I know what SATA is and I am not familiar with Serial-Attach SCSI hotplug. Thank in advance for your advise or experiences. - rh

There is a front end for GnuPG in KDE. It's called KGpg. Makes it a lot easier to do many tasks.

Recommendation/pointers please - Need to brush up on CentOS/Linux command line tools
by Dale 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Hi all, I would very much appreciate any suggestions on any online resources, or even a decent book to purchase with the focus of brushing up on Linux command line tools. The focus is on troubleshooting type commands, adding users from command line and so forth. While I am reasonably comfortable using the command line, I will be the first to admit I am slow on some things and have gaps in my knowledge especially for those commands I have never needed to use. I tend to use Webmin for a lot of things. For an upcoming job transition I need to fill in the gaps to be able to do these same things I currently do via webmin at the command line. So any suggestions/pointers, etc would be very much appreciated. I wonder if there is a Linux for Dummies book out there (provided it deals with the command line vs. a GUI). Thanks Dale

kickstart fails statically built custom kernel: anaconda doesn't honor static NIC/SATA driver in kernel?
by Guolin Cheng 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Kickstart fails for statically built custom booting kernel, although the custom kernel is built form the same version stock kernel source. My anaconda and kernel source are both of stock versions on Centos 5. At the kickstart 'F3' screen, the following error messages appear: Modules to insert tg3 ... ... ERROR: no network devices in choose network device! ERROR: no network drivers for doing kickstart ERROR: unable to bring up network. The network card driver tg3 is statically built into custom kernel to fix NIC driver loading sequence problem( I have mixed type NICs on these boxes), so there is no tg3.ko in my rolled modules/modules.cgz file. Does this problem mean that kickstart/anaconda doesn't recognize NIC/SATA drivers statically built into booting kernel? Anaconda needs everything to exist in dynamic module form (*.ko in modules.cgz)? Thanks.

How to setup both Transpaent Proxy and firewall on the same Machine.
by Indunil Jayasooriya 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Hi ALL, I want to setup Transpaent Proxy on the box running iptables Firewall. With iptables, I have given below rules. iptables -F INPUT iptables -F OUTPUT iptables -F FORWARD iptables -F -t nat iptables -F -t mangle #Enabling ip forwarding echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward #enable syn cookies (prevent against the common 'syn flood attack') echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_syncookies #do source validation by reversed path echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/rp_filter #Enable tracking mechanism /sbin/modprobe -a ip_conntrack_ftp ip_nat_ftp iptables -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT iptables -A FORWARD -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT iptables -A OUTPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT DROP iptables -A FORWARD DROP iptables -A OUTPUT DROP in addition to that, There are many rules , ALL work fine. in squid.conf file, I have added below rules, http_port 3128 cache_mem 64 MB cache_dir ufs /var/spool/squid 100 16 256 cache_access_log /var/log/squid/access.log cache_log /var/log/squid/cache.log cache_store_log /var/log/squid/store.log httpd_accel_host virtual httpd_accel_port 80 httpd_accel_with_proxy on httpd_accel_uses_host_header on And, Then, I did below command. iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128 But, When I browse Internet , request will not get ridirected to 3128 port. So I can not use squid as a Transpaent Proxy. Where have I gone wrong? I reffered to below URL. http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/TransparentProxy.html#toc2 Pls help me. -- Thank you Indunil Jayasooriya

Ndiswrapper for Realtek 8180L on CentOS 5.0
by Manish Kathuria 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Hello, I had installed CentOS 5.0 on my desktop PC having a Realtek 8180L based PCI wireless card. Since the drivers for this chip are not available in the kernel, I created RPMs for ndiswrapper-1.43 from the source code and installed them. I could configure the wireless card and use it but invariably the system freezes after sometime. No such thing happens if the wireless card is disabled. In the past, I have been using ndiswrapper on the same system on CentOS 4.3 and 4.4 and multiple Fedora distributions without any problem. I have also updated to the latest kernel and recreated the ndiswrapper modules but the problem persists. What could be the possible reason ? Thanks, Manish

Dual boot in CentOS 4.4
by Andrew Allen 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

I've recently upgraded from RedHat 9 to CentOS 4.4. With RH9 I had a dual boot system with Windows XP (RH9 as the default of course!), which was automatically set up when I installed RH9 in the remaining partition after I'd installed XP. However, I appear to have lost my dual boot with CentOS 4.4 (no option to boot into DOS now), even though I still have the Windows XP partition, so how can I (re-) set up the dual boot? Thanks, Andy
