deny other hosts from synchronizing time with NTP client
by Simon Jolle 23 Apr '08

23 Apr '08

Hi CentOS users We are running CentOS 4.5 with NTP 4.2.0. # cat /etc/ntp.conf restrict default ignore restrict dns1.xxx.xxx mask 255.255.255.0 nomodify notrap noquery restrict dns2.xxx.xxx mask 255.255.255.0 nomodify notrap noquery restrict 127.0.0.1 server dns1.xxx.xxx server dns2.xxx.xxx fudge 127.127.1.0 stratum 10 driftfile /etc/ntp/drift broadcastdelay 0.008 authenticate no The problem is that other hosts are able to synchronize the time from our servers. How to disable that? # lsof -i :123 COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE NODE NAME ntpd 4874 ntp 4u IPv4 35805 UDP *:ntp ntpd 4874 ntp 5u IPv6 35806 UDP *:ntp ntpd 4874 ntp 6u IPv4 35807 UDP localhost.localdomain:ntp ntpd 4874 ntp 7u IPv4 35808 UDP xxx:ntp ntpd 4874 ntp 8u IPv4 35809 UDP xxx:ntp ntpd 4874 ntp 9u IPv4 35810 UDP xxx:ntp ntpd 4874 ntp 10u IPv4 35811 UDP xxx:ntp NTP listens on every interface. cheers Simon -- XMPP: sjolle(a)swissjabber.org

Which other hosts? Other hosts in the same subnet as dns1 and dns2? If that is the problem, maybe you should try changing "mask 255.255.255.0" to "mask 255.255.255.255". The "mask 255.255.255.0" means all the class C subnet. HTH, Filipe _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos ######################### Or just create an IPTABLES-Rule to keep those "unwanted" hosts away from Server's NTP-Service...

mount: /dev/sdb1 already mounted or /blah busy
by Al Sparks 23 Apr '08

23 Apr '08

How do I go about troubeshooting this? I'm using RHEL 4 update 6. mount: /dev/sdb1 already mounted or /blah busy It's actually an iSCSI LUN (NetApp filer). I successfully configured (ext3) and mounted it, but when I rebooted, the /dev/sdb1 device/partition is seen by the kernel and it shows up with "fdisk -l". Nevertheless I get that error. I've tried "umount" and am informed that /blah isn't mounted. I've tried "lsof" and don't find a process that's attached to /blah. I also tried "fsck -t ext3 /dev/sdb1" which worked (so it detects the ext3 file system). Any other tools to check out? === Al

vectoring IRC / Jabber logins to AD?
by Rogelio 22 Apr '08

22 Apr '08

Excuse my ignorance (I just got crap on the #centos IRC channel for this question), but is there a (easy!) way to have and IRC and/or Jabber server relay a login to a Microsoft Active Directory server for authentication? If there's a better question to ask this question, please point me in that direction, and I'll be happy to do so Thanks

Can't get .htaccess to work
by Pam Astor 22 Apr '08

22 Apr '08

Hi, I'm trying to password protect one of my web accessable directories and I can't get .htaccess to work in a Centos 5.1 box Here's what I did I created an .htaccess file with the contents: AuthName "Restricted Area" AuthType Basic AuthUserFile /home/mysite/.htpasswd AuthGroupFile /dev/null require valid-user and I uploaded it to the dir I want to protect. Then I created my password outside of my web dir with the command: htpasswd -c .htpasswd pam then followed password prompts, created my password. So then I go to the site, and am not seeing any password required box, I can see site without a login. So then I figured it's not turned on in apache, and went to httpd.conf and changed AllowOverride None to AllowOverride AuthConfig When I reload, apache will not reload. What am I doing wrong? _________________________________________________________________ Pack up or back up–use SkyDrive to transfer files or keep extra copies.
