NTP server
by Scott Ehrlich 04 Feb '08

04 Feb '08

I have a Centos 5 64-bit server that has ntp service enabled. Windows XP with SP2 cannot properly sync to it for time, but can communicate with it via samba, ssh, and anything else. I also disabled the Windows Firewall. The C5 system does not have any firewall enabled. Other C5 workstations can successfully sync to it via ntpdate. What else could cause the XP machine to not be able to time sync with the C5 server? Thanks. Scott

Fatal server error: no screens found XIO: fatal IO error 104 (Connection reset by peer) on X server ":0.0" after 0 requests (0 known processed) with 0 events remaining. I like getting a new install stable and fully functional with open source drivers before introducing perturbations like using a proprietary display driver. That being said, I just installed the ATI proprietary driver. So far the system is stable. I'll see whether the monitor correctly goes to a low power mode tonight. Cheers, Dave -- Politics, n.

DVD support on CentOS 5.1
by Sysadmin＠dte.net 03 Feb '08

03 Feb '08

Hello out there! Been around the block trying to get DVD support for Totem, but I keep running into dead ends everywhere I go. Looking for CentOS 5.1-compatible xine and xine-lib packages as that seems to be the answer, but the only ones I find (like on DAG) seem to be just dead links or I get a message that the mirrors are unavailable when I try to run the rpm. Can anyone provide a link for rpm's that will provide DVD support on CentOS 5.1 32bit? I installed the Gstream rpm's so at least I have mp3 and mpeg support, I just really want DVD support as well. Many thanks in advance, Manuel Alvarez P.S. If anyone can chime in the question below I would greatly appreciate it. I still have no idea on this one. L From: Sysadmin(a)dte.net [mailto:Sysadmin@dte.net] Sent: Tuesday, January 22, 2008 5:14 PM To: 'centos(a)centos.org' Subject: Wireless PCMCIA/PC Card for CentOS 5.1? Hello everyone, I would really like to get wireless working on my CentOS 5.1 install. I have a LinkSys WPC54G (I guess version 1 since no version is listed) but everything I've read indicates that this would be a nightmare for a Linux newbie like myself. I got as far as NDISWrapper, but right off the bat I am getting issues with KBuild and I guess my kernel source so I can't even get as far as compiling NDISWrapper. My question is mainly: Can anyone recommend a PC Card for a laptop that will work on CentOS without NDISWrapper? If not, is there an idiot guide for installing NDISWrapper on Centos 5.1? Thanks and best wishes, Manuel Alvarez
