Problem mounting CIFS shares with credential file after SAMBA update
by José María Terry Jiménez 11 Dec '09

11 Dec '09

Hello all, This morning i updated my CentOS (5.4) and that included: samba-3.0.33-3.14.el5.i386.rpm samba-client-3.0.33-3.14.el5.i386.rpm samba-common-3.0.33-3.14.el5.i386.rpm samba-swat-3.0.33-3.14.el5.i386.rpm I have several mounts if fstab using a .credentials file that worked until i rebooted with this updates. I remember time ago was an issue with the format of credentials file (something about a LF at the end or something else) I've checked the file, added spaces between "=", added a line at the end, between username and passwd... but it doesn't work, i always get an error like (when i do mount -a): mount error 13 = Permission denied Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs) (this is repeated for every CIFS share mounted in fstab) If i mount it "by hand" it works fine: # mount -tcifs -ousername=xxxx //192.168.0.100/xxxxx /media/xxxxx Password: And then, if i do a mount -a then works! (until i reboot, of course) # mount -a # Do anyone knows what is happening?

I just created a 4 drive mdadm --level=raid10 on a centos 4.8-ish system here, and shortly thereafter remembreed I hadn't updated it in a while, so i ran yum update... while installing/updating stuff, got these errors: Installing: kernel ####################### [14/69] raid level raid10 (in /proc/mdstat) not recognized ... Installing: kernel-smp ####################### [19/69] raid level raid10 (in /proc/mdstat) not recognized is this a problem? the raid10 'seems' to work....

Migrating to RAID
by Matt 11 Dec '09

11 Dec '09

I have CentOS 4.x installed on a single 500GB SATA drive. Drive is about 10 percent used. I would like to migrate to software RAID 5 without reinstalling the OS. Was thinking 3 500GB drives. Is that possible or must I reinstall? Matt

An error message I don't recognize
by Bob McConnell 11 Dec '09

11 Dec '09

I have recently been told I will have to maintain some CentOS servers at work. Since I have only been using Slackware for the last 16 years, I decided to install CentOS on one of my servers at home to get an idea of the differences. I installed CentOS 5.4 from CD with no problems, did a yum update, set up a couple of samba shares and started to copy over some files from one of my other servers. Everything looks ok, but I keep seeing this message on the active console. I have no idea where it comes from nor what it means. type=1400 audit(1260446462.444:9): avc: denied { getattr } for pid=2200 comm="smbd" path="/proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc" dev=binfmt_misc ino=4348 scontext=root:system_r:smbd_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:object_r:binfmt_misc_fs_t:s0 tclass=dir What is it, what is triggering it and how do I fix it? Thanks, Bob McConnell N2SPP

Screen capture in Terminal
by Robert Moskowitz 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

I don't see how to do it. I had to telnet into a firewall and run a trace, and I had to stop it, copy and paste to gedit, then start again, etc. I find it interesting, and sad, that there is no easy 'output to file' profile setting.

Unable to share directory via Samba?
by James Bensley 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

So I went to System > Administration > Server Settings > Samba and added a folder to share and initially set it to guest access to get things going. I couldn't access this one and only share on this server with guest access from either my Windows laptop (XP Pro SP3) or a Leopard server (10.5.8) so I changed the settings to use user authentication and added my local user details (this is a stand alone file server with one user and the root user running CentOS 5.4). I made sure I hadn't put the entries in iptables incorrect by stopping iptables (sudo /etc/init.d/iptables stop, which executed just fine). SELinux kept popping up so I disabled that and restarted the server also. So now with no iptables nor SELinux enabled flicking between guest and user access I still can't access the share (I have also tried authenticating as root to no avail), my Windows and Mac test machines are erroring out saying they don't have permissions to access the share (I am an administrator on both machines so its not a local permissions issue). There are no firewall restrictions between my test machines and the CentOS server as I would even get prompted for authentication so that's not a problem and my test machines work fine because I can mount smb shares on other files servers in the same subnet as the CentOS server, what's going on? Ideas are welcome! Thanks for reading... -- Regards, James ;) Pablo Picasso - "Computers are useless.

Re: [CentOS] Quagga ECMP
by Cristian Carstea 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

yes, that's right, but i am asking here about Quagga, which is a routing software (OSPF, BGP etc.), not about kernel multipath, i mean if Quagga is compiled with Equal Cost MultiPath (ECMP), the "-enable-multipath" compile option. Can someone post here the spec file from which quagga rpm was built for CentOS? Thanks.

Those are the configs that it was built with. In my 5.4 system: [root@xm-c32-001 boot]# grep -i multipath config-2.6.18-128.2.1.el5xen CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH=y # CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_CACHED is not set CONFIG_MD_MULTIPATH=m CONFIG_DM_MULTIPATH=m CONFIG_DM_MULTIPATH_EMC=m CONFIG_DM_MULTIPATH_RDAC=m CONFIG_DM_MULTIPATH_HP=m

Is lsb 3.2+ detrimental to CentOS 5.4?
by MHR 10 Dec '09

10 Dec '09

I found out today that Google Chrome is now available for Linux. However, and this is a big but: $ sudo rpm -ivh google-chrome-beta_current_x86_64.rpm Password: warning: google-chrome-beta_current_x86_64.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 7fac5991 error: Failed dependencies: lsb >= 3.2 is needed by google-chrome-beta-4.0.249.30-33928.x86_64 xdg-utils is needed by google-chrome-beta-4.0.249.30-33928.x86_64 $ yum list | grep -i lsb redhat-lsb.i386 3.1-12.3.EL.el5.centos installed redhat-lsb.x86_64 3.1-12.3.EL.el5.centos installed I'm not that familiar with lsb, but from what I can find, it does not seem like it would be a good idea to install a more recent version of lsb than the official release, or am I way off base here? I can get xdg-utils easily enough, but it doesn't seem relevant if I can't use the newer lsb. So, is it possible to use lsb 3.2+ on CentOS 5.4 without breaking anything? Is there anything else I'd need to do, other than convert to Fedora (not going to happen)? Thanks. mhr
