help with alternatives
by Tony Schreiner 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

I've installed java-1.6.0-openjdk (from EPEL) on a CentOS 5.2 x86_64 system and see that it has not registered itself with alternatives. First, is there a reason I should know about that it does not set itself up as an alternative? But second, if I was to configure it myself, the syntax is alternatives --install link name path priority ... and other optional stuff Looking at other examples, I'm not clear on the difference between link and path in this command Thanks, Tony Schreiner Boston College

BiND Failover
by Per Qvindesland 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

Hi list, I've two servers running the same ldap service. A is primary server and B is simply a mirror, and accounts from server A are constantly synchronized with B. Now I don't have a automatic failover solution, whenever server A goes down, I have to point the domain's A record to server B and wait for the DNS to get updated. Takes quite a lot of time but the ldap service is crucial to the system and shouldn't be down for longer than a few minutes. I've heard about Dyndns? They provide automatic failover if one server does down, what I want to know is if I can do the same using Bind? And if it's possible to do it automatically? Without human intervention. I don't want a round-robin solution, I want a automatic switchover if primary box goes down. Regards Per Qvindesland

I am trying to hwclock to set the time. (hwclock -w) this is what I get on standard 5.2 x86_64. hwclock --debug hwclock from util-linux-2.13-pre7 hwclock: Open of /dev/rtc failed, errno=19: No such device. No usable clock interface found. Cannot access the Hardware Clock via any known method. [root@devcentos5x64 src]# ls -l /dev/rtc crw------- 1 root root 10, 135 Feb 6 13:32 /dev/rtc Any thoughts? Jerry

Getting "poll: protocol failure in circuit setup" from rsh
by Sorin Srbu 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

Hi all, I inherited a cpu-stats script from the previous *nixadmin at our department. This script relies on a rsh-command to get the vmstats from the remote machines and then using a perl script to push it to a web server. Now I've just added a new machine running CentOS 5.2 x64 to the script and I get the error message in the subject line; "poll: protocol failure in circuit setup". What I've done so far is to check whether the command "rsh mach218 uptime" from m2 works with and w/o iptables running on mach218, checking that m2 is allowed to rlogin in m218 hosts.allow, hosts is properly setup, xinetd rsh and rlogin services are on and started AFAICT. In neither case does rsh work when run against m218, I still get the protocol failure-message. I have another machine, m14, that also runs CentOS 5.2 but the x86-flavour, and here rsh works. As far as I can tell, the machines are identically setup with respect to iptables, hosts and hosts.allow. Also the /etc/xinetd.conf are identical on both m14 and m218. Feels like I'm missing something obvious... Can you guys help?

CentOS 5 video driver for Intel DG965WHMKR at 1680X1050 resolution?
by Dick Holland 20 Feb '09

20 Feb '09

I'm trying to find a CentOS 5 x86_64 video driver for an Intel DG965WHMKR mobo to support 1680X1050 resolution. There appears to be nothing at Intel - or anywhere else that I can find. Anyone know where I can find one? -- Dick Holland
