Hi, I want to setup vsftp on centos 4.5. 2 types of ftp. they are active and pasive. What is the default type ftp type o CentOS ? Is is PASIVE ftp? in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf, I found below line. What should I do for below line? # Make sure PORT transfer connections originate from port 20 (ftp-data). connect_from_port_20=YES Should I COMMENT it out? I need a very secure ftp service.

I've done something a while back that has messed with my named.conf and prevents me from restarting named service normally... My problem... # service named restart Stopping named: [FAILED] Starting named: named: already running [FAILED] nothing gets logged in /var/log/messages obviously, I can do this to restart it... [root@srv1 etc]# ps aux|grep named named 26598 0.1 0.3 72168 3732 ?

CentOS5 Network Problems
by semi linux 21 Sep '07

21 Sep '07

I have a very odd problem connecting to some websites from my CentOS 5 box Target websites: www.connecttech.com www.3ware.com (two of my HW vendors) I can usually get some kind of response, but if the content (download or page itself) is larger in size (downloads never pass 100K), then it hangs... When I fire-up wireshark, I get a lot of ougoing highlighted Checksum Errored packets but I don't know what's causing it... Here's what I've eliminated thus far: - Websites are up and responsive - Cable(s) is fine - Network drop is fine - I put myself behind a firewall to make sure it wasn't my network - Network card has been switched - Driver has been switched - Removed any firewall - wget has problems as well - Other computers on the same network work fine. Sites like maps.google.com work just fine... I'm open to any suggestion at this point. I'm completely lost. - G.

logrotate /var/log/maillog
by Thomas Antony 21 Sep '07

21 Sep '07

Hi, I want to create a new log /var/log/maillog for postfix each day and so i created a new logrotate config for the log and removed it from /etc/logrotate.d/syslog. ~]# cat /etc/logrotate.d/maillog /var/log/maillog { daily rotate 31 start 1 compress create 0600 root postrotate /etc/init.d/postfix reload > /dev/null endscript } After /var/log/maillog has rotated, postfix doesn't log anything to the new log file till i restart syslog. It doesn't matter if i reload or restart postfix. Is this a normal behaviour with this log file and if yes why? Thomas

Absolutely right. I never intended to imply anything else. Sorry if there was any confusion. robert
