pptp server configuration
by Ramon Nieto 24 Jul '08

24 Jul '08

Hello all, i'm using the poptop server with centos 5.2 to give the vpn service at the company i work for. Some people are using the same account to use the service. 've been searching in google and the poptop site but i have not found any information about blocking multiple connections using the same account. The goal is to restrict only one connection per account. Any suggestions or pointers to documentation will be really apreciated. __________________________________________________ Correo Yahoo!

Possible bug in ifup-eth script of Centos 5.2 (combination of bond and bridge)
by Marco Fretz 24 Jul '08

24 Jul '08

Dear CentOS, I think i found a "bug" in the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-eth script of CentOS 5.2. i can post the my changed ifup-eth script if you want. Am I the first one with this problem? Situation: - eth2 and eth3 should be in bond1 interface - bond1 should be an interface of bridge named "iscsi" the problem is that the brctl addif command in ifup-eth gets executed before the slave interfaces of a bonding are enslaved. brctl addif fails if you are trying to add a bonding interface to a bridge and the bonding interface have no slaves. my solution was to switch the order in the ifup-eth script: - to the bonding (slave interfaces) stuff before the bridge stuff and its working... the bonding interface gets his slaves and can be added to the bridge without any errors. best regards Marco

OK, so does anybody have a good firewall rule solution for what we're supposed to be doing with bind these days? Obviously port 53 is no longer enough. TIA John Hinton

OT: Content system preferences, KnowledgeTree vs Alfresco
by Jim Perrin 24 Jul '08

24 Jul '08

We're in the market for a new content system at work. Right now it's between KnowledgeTree and alfresco. Mostly we're looking for something with the ability to upload, tag with various meta-data, and share among various other systems via webdav, cifs, etc. Does anyone have any personal preferences or experiences with these two products? -- During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.

BackupPC won't fork after CentOS 5.2 upgrade
by Ben 24 Jul '08

24 Jul '08

For some time now i have been running BackupPC 3.1.0 on CentOS 5.1 x86_64 however after upgrading to CentOS 5.2 BackupPC will not start. "sudo /etc/init.d/backuppc start" return OK but there is no BackupPC processes. This fails also. # sudo -u backuppc /usr/bin/BackupPC -d # echo $? 0 This succeeds, but of course does not fork. # sudo -u backuppc /usr/bin/BackupPC So for some reason after the CentOS 5.2 upgrade it will not fork into the background. I have run the perl debugger over it and up until the fork everything is fine. Nothing appears in the LOG. Any ideas would be appreciated. Ben PS. Here is a list of installed perl packages. # rpm -qa | grep perl perl-String-CRC32-1.4-2.fc6 perl-Crypt-DES-2.05-4.el5 perl-Compress-Zlib-1.42-1.fc6 perl-DateTime-Format-Mail-0.30-4.el5 perl-libwww-perl-5.805-1.1.1 perl-MIME-Lite-3.01-5.el5 nagios-plugins-perl-1.4.11-2.el5 perl-Config-IniFiles-2.39-6.el5 perl-Digest-SHA1-2.11-1.2.1 perl-Digest-HMAC-1.01-15 perl-File-RsyncP-0.68-1.c5 mod_perl-2.0.2-6.3.el5 perl-Params-Validate-0.88-3.el5 perl-URI-1.35-3 perl-Archive-Zip-1.16-1.2.1 perl-DateTime-0.41-1.el5 perl-DateTime-Format-W3CDTF-0.04-1.el5 perl-HTML-Parser-3.55-1.fc6 perl-XML-Parser-2.34-6.1.2.2.1 perl-Time-modules-2003.1126-4.el5.1 perl-MailTools-1.77-1.el5 perl-5.8.8-10.el5_2.3 perl-Net-SNMP-5.2.0-1.el5.1 perl-BSD-Resource-1.28-1.fc6.1 perl-Class-Singleton-1.03-3.el5 perl-HTML-Tagset-3.10-2.1.1 perl-XML-RSS-1.31-1.el5 perl-Geo-IP-1.28-3.el5 perl-TimeDate-1.16-5.el5

Help recovering from an LVM issue
by Clint Dilks 24 Jul '08

24 Jul '08

Hi People I just updated a CentOS 5.2 Server that is a Guest inside VMware ESX 3.50 Server using "yum update". As far as I can tell the only three packages were updated Jul 24 16:37:49 Updated: php-common - 5.1.6-20.el5_2.1.i386 Jul 24 16:37:50 Updated: php-cli - 5.1.6-20.el5_2.1.i386 Jul 24 16:37:50 Updated: php - 5.1.6-20.el5_2.1.i386 But when I rebooted the Server one of my Volume Groups VolGroup01 would not mount. By removing all references to VolGroup1 in /etc/fstab I was able to get a system that boots. Unfortunately I am not that familiar with LVM but using the following commands it looks like all the information about my logical volumes on VolGroup01 is gone is this correct? Is there likely to be any chance of recovering from this ? vgscan Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while... Found volume group "VolGroup01" using metadata type lvm2 Found volume group "VolGroup00" using metadata type lvm2 pvs --units=h PV VG Fmt Attr PSize PFree /dev/sda2 VolGroup00 lvm2 a- 9.88G 0 /dev/sda3 VolGroup00 lvm2 a- 90.00G 0 /dev/sdb1 VolGroup01 lvm2 a- 19.97G 19.97G lvdisplay --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 VG Name VolGroup00 LV UUID cEWsVM-8M8w-0gWY-FFoh-bGLT-sf0M-sbosUD LV Write Access read/write LV Status available # open 1 LV Size 98.00 GB Current LE 3136 Segments 2 Allocation inherit Read ahead sectors auto - currently set to 256 Block device 253:0 --- Logical volume --- LV Name /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 VG Name VolGroup00 LV UUID B8Y0UO-LATT-ohl2-kvfZ-bO1W-4cP8-3a6pVz LV Write Access read/write LV Status available # open 1 LV Size 1.88 GB Current LE 60 Segments 1 Allocation inherit Read ahead sectors auto - currently set to 256 Block device 253:1 Thank you for any advice you may have relating to this.
