Problem accessing my webmail
by Jun Salen 10 Jan '08

10 Jan '08

Hi, I just finished replacing my mail server with the new one from CentOS 4.6 to CentOS 5.1. The mail are running smoothly with user able to send/receive mail from Outlook using IMAP or POP3 and Webmail locally. My problem is that when I am outside my network like in home, I cannot able to access the Webmail. In my prior mail server, it is ok. Is there anybody here have clues for me to look for? DNSReport states that my mail server was accessable. Please help.

Slightly OT: Dual-booting two Linux dists
by Bart Schaefer 10 Jan '08

10 Jan '08

I'd like to set up a machine to dual-boot Ubuntu and CentOS5. Any problems foreseen with this? I'm mostly worried about disk labeling; they each need their own /boot and / filesystems. (Or do they need separate /boot partitions? Obviously there's an issue with boot.* and *.b and what System.map is symlink'd to, etc., but maybe there's a way to work around that.)

IAXmodem 1.0
by Robert Moskowitz 10 Jan '08

10 Jan '08

Has anyone built an rpm for Centos 5 and IAXmodem 1.0? I need it, and I thought to ask before struggling to get it. The Trixbox people are saying a couple of weeks still on their side...

Anyone know of complete hardware solution based IDE Raid Controllers?
by Brett Davidson 10 Jan '08

10 Jan '08

Years ago Accusys made an IDE raid controller that presented itself as one drive to the BIOS, making the unit completely OS agnostic. Anything like that out there, anymore? Cheers, Brett.

building internal yum / rpmforge repo
by Rogelio 10 Jan '08

10 Jan '08

I am looking to create an internal yum repository on my LAN in order to save on having to constantly go to the internet to download new packages. Where might I look (or what might I search for) to get going in the right direction? (I googled, but I cannot seem to find a good answer. I'm guessing that I'll just need to sync the main RHEL repo, as well as the RPMForge one?)

I got it cleaned up and back running and tried again to recreate the problem. This time my tar command worked just fine (Nicholas, I'm using tar piped to gzip to mimic what amanda does). I tried it again and got a seg fault from a file that had just been tarred and gzipped with no problem. I fired it off again and got the seg fault from a different file. At this point I'm thinking I have an intermittent hardware problem. It just happened to seg fault twice on the same file when I tried it yesterday. After several runs, there appear to be certain files that I preferentially get the seg fault on if I rerun the backup several times. Sometimes it works; sometimes it seg faults. When it seg faults it's frequently on certain specific files. Kind of weird. Hopefully, it's nothing worse than the CPU fan has ingested too much cat hair (http://davenjudy.org/interests/pets/img011.jpeg.medium.jpeg) so the CPU is running hot. Thanks for the help.

by Joseph L. Casale 09 Jan '08

09 Jan '08

Given my experience in Linux is limited currently, what do you guys use to monitor logs such as 'messages' on your centos servers? I had a hardware failure that happened in between me manually looking (of course...). I would hope it might have a some features to email critical issues etc... Thanks! jlc

Xen clock drift
by Jack Bailey 09 Jan '08

09 Jan '08

Hello All, Consider a CentOS-5.1 Xen server (2.6.18-53.1.4.el5xen) hosting two domains running CentOS-5.1 (2.6.18-53.1.4.el5). One domain has a fairly accurate clock, the other domain has a clock that gains ungodly amounts of time, roughly one minute every two or three minutes. For a fix, one suggestion is to run this command in DomU: echo 1 > /proc/sys/xen/independent_wallclock This didn't change anything. As an experiment, I wrote a script to call ntpd -q, sleep 60, and repeat indefinitely. Here are a couple of snippets of output: goodclock# ksh ./xenclockdrift ntpd: time slew +0.001211s ntpd: time slew +0.001200s ntpd: time slew +0.001855s ntpd: time slew +0.001532s ntpd: time slew +0.001603s ntpd: time slew +0.001320s ntpd: time slew +0.001931s badclock# ksh ./xenclockdrift ntpd: time slew -0.000193s ntpd: time set -57.356377s ntpd: time slew +0.002352s ntpd: time slew +0.003018s ntpd: time set -57.417488s ntpd: time slew +0.012089s ntpd: time slew -0.000985s These domains are fully virtualized and set up identically, except "badclock" is allocated two processors versus one processor for "goodclock". DomU's clock is running normally. Anyone know what's going or know how to fix it? Jack
