Hi all.. I have centos 5.2 There is a cron file that is commented out to auto update the rules of spamassassin Location: /etc/cron.d/sa-update This file is chmod 600, should it not be 755? All the other crons are 755 This line is commented. #10 4 * * * root /usr/share/spamassassin/sa-update.cron 2>&1 | tee -a /var/log/sa-update.log Questions 1- should I re chmod it to 600 or leave it at 755? Is anyone else using this? The cron file says to read a certain wiki page and do this cron at your own peril. Yet I find no warnings on that wiki page that would make me think this was bad. Thanks all

4.7 update issues?
by RobertH 13 Sep '08

13 Sep '08

Greets, Thank you to all the CentOS team and supporters. :-) Just wondering though... Any 4.7 update issues or horror stories yet? Also, anyone that has upstream support and previously updated, any issues for Internet facing, or other, production machines ? - rh

Java install
by Ric Moore 13 Sep '08

13 Sep '08

While using Fedora, I always used java straight from Sun. What is recommended for CentOS?? Getting jetty, java and other java apps working correctly has been a real chore. If I used nothing but RPMs for CEntOS, would I have a real working java install? I need some help on this one badly.

Standby Issue
by Test 13 Sep '08

13 Sep '08

Hi List, I'm running Centos 5.2 on an Pentium III-1000 The box has been running for almost a year without any (hardware) issues. SInce a few weeks the box goes into standby (power led flashes) without any obvious reason (ie. i cannot find anything). This happens randomly (box runs for 1 day and does this, next time it runs for 5 days and it happens). Normally when a box goes into standby, you should be able to start it again pressing the power button, but this does not work. I have to completely unplug it and then it boots up again (after plugging it in again ;-)) I thought it was due to a kernel upgrade from 2.6.18-92.1.6 to 2.6.18-92.1.10, but after a downgrade the same issue occurred I have checked about all settings (loaded modules, logfiles, bios etc.) I have stopped the acpid, still no go... cpuspeed is not running... Bios has got all powermanagement stuff disable.. So basically i am looking for some hints on solving this... Anyone...? -- Test <test(a)remedial-teacher.nl>

DNS Logging with Selinux enabled
by Josh Donovan 12 Sep '08

12 Sep '08

I rebuilt my server and setup bind to log queries in a chroot. ################################################################################ # Logging Configuration # logging { # # Define channels for the two log files # channel query_log { severity info; print-time yes; file "/var/log/query.log" versions 3 size 100M; }; channel activity_log { severity info; print-time yes; print-category yes; print-severity yes; file "/var/log/activity.log" versions 3 size 100M; Below is the security context of the files in the chroot. [root@josh log]# ls -alZ /var/named/chroot/var/log/activity.log -rw-r--r-- named named root:object_r:named_conf_t /var/named/chroot/var/log/activity.log [root@josh log]# ls -alZ /var/named/chroot/var/log/query.log -rw-r--r-- named named root:object_r:named_conf_t /var/named/chroot/var/log/query.log I temporarily disabled selinux but there was one simple step I missed (forgot since i did this years ago). I briefly recall creating a symlink and/or using chcon or one of the selinux commands. Thanks, Josh
