Starting slapd: /bin/bash: /tmp/start-slapd.K12378: Permission denied
by Brett Wiesner 20 Jan '09

20 Jan '09

Hi, I'm running Centos 5, with openldap Version: 2.3.27 Release: 8.el5_2.4. When I run: $ sudo /etc/init.d/ldap start I get the following error: Starting slapd: /bin/bash: /tmp/start-slapd.l14891: Permission denied (obviously the temp file number changes every time). It appears to be a permission problem but I thought I did everything to set up the permissions correctly... Everything is owned by the ldap user: $ cd /etc/openldap/ $ ls -al total 40 drwxr-xr-x 4 ldap ldap 4096 Jan 16 18:07 . drwxr-xr-x 66 root root 4096 Jan 16 17:55 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 ldap ldap 4096 Jul 9 2008 cacerts -rw-r----- 1 ldap ldap 886 Jul 9 2008 DB_CONFIG.example -rw-r--r-- 1 ldap ldap 246 Jul 9 2008 ldap.conf drwxr-xr-x 3 ldap ldap 4096 Jan 16 17:40 schema -rw-r----- 1 ldap ldap 3456 Jan 16 18:07 slapd.conf -rw-r----- 1 ldap ldap 12288 Jan 16 18:07 .slapd.conf.swp $ sudo ls -al /var/lib/ldap/ total 572 drwx------ 2 ldap ldap 4096 Jan 16 17:41 . drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 Jan 16 17:40 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 ldap ldap 2048 Jan 16 17:41 alock -rw------- 1 ldap ldap 24576 Jan 16 17:41 __db.001 -rw------- 1 ldap ldap 278528 Jan 16 17:41 __db.002 -rw------- 1 ldap ldap 270336 Jan 16 17:41 __db.003 -rw------- 1 ldap ldap 98304 Jan 16 17:41 __db.004 -rw------- 1 ldap ldap 352256 Jan 16 17:41 __db.005 -rw------- 1 ldap ldap 24576 Jan 16 17:41 __db.006 -rw------- 1 ldap ldap 10485760 Jan 16 17:41 log.0000000001 When I run slaptest, it doesn't look great, but it doesn't look like a problem... $ sudo /usr/sbin/slaptest bdb_db_open: Warning - No DB_CONFIG file found in directory /var/lib/ldap: (2) Expect poor performance for suffix dc=XXXX,dc=net. bdb_db_open: db_open(/var/lib/ldap/id2entry.bdb) failed: No such file or directory (2) bdb(dc=XXXX,dc=net): Unknown locker ID: 0 backend_startup_one: bi_db_open failed!

prettyprint problem in CentOS 5.2
by tbuchanan＠vinu.edu 19 Jan '09

19 Jan '09

I'd like to ask for help with a problem in CentOS 5.2 when printing from the command line with the prettyprint option selected. Program students print out their code with the command: lpr -P<printer_name> -o prettyprint -o job-sheets=none <filename_to_be_printed> The prettyprint option, as you know, puts a banner with file name and date at the top, and uses a small font, and (for a color printer) uses different colors for different parts of the file. This last worked with a fully updated CentOS 4.7 server but after a move to a different fully updated CentOS 5.2 server the prettyprint option does nothing unless the first line of the file to be printed contains /*hello*/, (discovered quite by accident). CUPS on CentOS 4.7 was cups-1.1.22-0.rc1.9.27.el4_7.1 while the version on CentOS 5.2 is cups-1.2.4-11.18.el5_2.3. I tried printing from a couple other Linux distros, Fedora 10 (cups-1.3.9-6.fc10.i386) and Ubuntu 8.04 LTS, both of which were fully updated. The Fedora 10 exhibited the same problem while the Ubuntu 8.04 LTS printed properly with the prettyprint option. Is this a bug with the way RedHat implements CUPS or am I missing something? The only thing I found in a quick Google search that was similar (but with opposite effects, if I understand correctly) was this CUPS bug report http://www.cups.org/str.php?L2158 which gives no resolution. For now the instruction is having the students print via a script he created which adds \*hello*\ to the first line of their code. Any help would be appreciated. Ted

CENTOS 4.7 or 5.2 32 bits O.S. for ORACLE DB server??
by mcclnx mcc 19 Jan '09

19 Jan '09

we plan to setup our ORACLE database server (32 bits DB) and use dell r900 server. This server can put up to 128GB RAM. We are thinking use 32 bits CENTOS 4.7 or 5.2. My concern about CENTOS 5.2 is it only support up to 16 GB RAM on 32 bits O.S. Any suggestion? ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ 付費才容量無上限？Yahoo!奇摩電子信箱2.0免費給你，信件永遠不必刪！ http://tw.mg0.mail.yahoo.com/dc/landing

Cron daemon with better precision?
by Tim Nelson 19 Jan '09

19 Jan '09

Greetings list- I'm on the hunt for a cron scheduler that supports definitions to the second. Obviously, every cron daemon supports minute/hour/etc but I have a special application that requires finer granularity. I know I know... someone will say "The load will be horrendous on your system" or "Why don't you simply schedule your cron every minute and make up the higher precision in your application?". Unfortunately, this will not work. I really need a cron daemon that can schedule to the second. All ideas/thoughts/suggestions/etc welcome. Thank you!

exim rpm with DKIM support for CentOS?
by Timo Neuvonen 18 Jan '09

18 Jan '09

I haven't learned a lot about DKIM yet, but I guess I'll need to implement it in the near future, at first for signing outgoing mail. I'm using exim as an MTA. I guess the standard exim 4.63 binary rpm from CentOS repos propably does not have DKIM support yet? Or does it, maybe? Provided the standard binary rpm does not provide this functionality, what would be the most decent way to get this functionality? Does the standard source rpm already include the necessary code, re-building the binary rpm with some additional option wouldn't sound bad. If not going this way, what could be a realiable source for a suitable exim rpm (either source or both the x86 and 86_64 binaries) for use in CentOS? Regards, Timo

IPSEC tunnel for remote internet access
by Mr.Vandeley 18 Jan '09

18 Jan '09

Hello list, I need to provide internet access through a proxy server on a central office to a remote Lan on a branch office (LAN-B). Also there is an internal server that LAN-B machines should reach. Below there is a simple diagram. Right now I have an IPsec VPN tunnel between offices, and LAN-B can acces LAN-A machines without problems. But LAN-B machines can't access the remote proxy or the internal server on a different LAN. Pings from a LAN-B PC to the PROXY server actually reach the proxy but answers get stuck on the VPN-Gateway-A. VPN-Gateway-A says to the proxy server that network LAN-B is unreachable. I am really confused. Both, router and VPN-Gateway-A knows how to reach LAN-B machines. I think that this behavior is due to the fact that VPN tunnel is up only for packets between LAN-A and LAN-B, so packets from the proxy server (on a different LAN) doesn't get routed to the tunnel. And since this, VPN-Gateway-A doesn't know how to reach LAN-B. All routers, proxy and VPN gateways are Centos based PCs. VPN gateways have Centos IPSEC implementation. Maybe IPsec is not appropriate on this case. Maybe openvpn fits better. [internet] | (proxy) (internal server) | [LAN] | (router) | [LAN-A] | ((VPN-Gateway-A)) | [wifi link] | ((VPN-Gateway-B)) | [LAN-B] Hope it is clear enough. -- Mr. Vandeley.

stack overflow
by Peter Doherty 18 Jan '09

18 Jan '09

Hi, I've got a fileserver that runs Centos 5.2. It's been stable otherwise stable for maybe a year or more, and now it's crashed three times since Saturday. The first two times the computer was completely unresponsive, and there was nothing on the console, and nothing in the logs. I was beginning to suspect hardware, (esp. RAM, PSU, or maybe a failed fan) Last night it locked up again, but this time there was something in / var/log/messages. (see below) So far my searches indicate that increasing to 8K kernel stacks would fix this. The server has a couple 3ware SATA RAID cards, and I'm running xfs. The server does nightly disk to disk backups of a few dozen workstations. The server does always seem to crash overnight. If the problem really is in the kernel stack size, it's odd that it just started all of a sudden. I thought I'd post here before I looked into compiling a new kernel with 8K stacks. Thanks for any advice! --Peter 2.6.18-53.1.21.el5 #1 SMP Tue May 20 09:34:18 EDT 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: do_IRQ: stack overflow: 464 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: [<c04073bd>] do_IRQ+0x5c/0xae Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fc7ff0aa Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: printing eip: Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: c0606da4 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: *pde = 00000000 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fc7ff226 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: printing eip: Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: c060704e Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: *pde = 00000000 ----clip for repeating info------ Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fc7ff226 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: printing eip: Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: c060704e Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: *pde = 00000000 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: Oops: 0002 [#1] Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: SMP Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: last sysfs file: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1e.0/0000:04:04.0/irq Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: Modules linked in: ipv6 autofs4 hidp rfcomm l2cap bluetooth sunrpc xfs(U) dm_mul tipath video sbs backlight i2c_ec button battery asus_acpi ac lp i2c_i801 e7xxx_edac floppy edac_mc i2c_core ide_cd serio_raw e100 parport_pc cdrom e1000 mii parport intel_rng sg pcspkr dm_snapshot dm_zero dm_mirror dm_mod ata_piix libata 3w_9xxx sd_mod scsi_mod ext3 jbd ehci_hcd ohci_hcd uhci_hcd Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: CPU: -1065923552 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: EIP: 0060:[<c060704e>] Not tainted VLI Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: EFLAGS: 00010046 (2.6.18-53.1.21.el5 #1) Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: EIP is at do_page_fault+0x3c5/0x4b8 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: eax: 00000013 ebx: 00000000 ecx: c0626aae edx: 00006dbf Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: esi: fc7ff226 edi: fc7ff026 ebp: 00000002 esp: f0b69170 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: ds: 007b es: 007b ss: 0068 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 000100ca Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: printing eip: Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: c0606da4 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: *pde = 707f0067 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 826ef258 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: printing eip: Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: c041fa82 Jan 14 03:06:21 fs2 kernel: *pde = 00000000
