According to the guidance a linuxwireless.com the b43 driver (not bcm43xx or b43legacy) should work with the 4312 device. If I can't get bcm43xx and bcm43xx-microcode5.fw to work, then I may try to install the b43 driver and blacklist bcm43xx. Dave

can't access remote Windows 2008 desktop via Krdc / Remote Desktop
by Rudi Ahlers 12 Jun '09

12 Jun '09

Hi all, Does anyone know why CentOS 5.+3 + latest KDE won't connect to a Windows 2008 server via Remote Desktop, yet it will work on a Windows 2003 server? I can easily connect to a Windows 2003 server, using rdp:/196.34.x.x and login and use the Windows 2003 server. But when I try the same with a Widows 2008 server, it just fails. I see if connecting, and then it "dies" without even displaying me the login screen. Is there something else I need todo to make it work? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Hosting Web: http://www.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532

how to set ntpd listen only 127.0.0.1 ?
by MontyRee 12 Jun '09

12 Jun '09

Hello, all. I would like to use ntpd for time sync not rdate or ntpdate. but after installation the ntpd, I found that listened at all interfaces like below. udp 0 0 192.168.111.2:123 0.0.0.0:* 11528/ntpd udp 0 0 xxx.xxx.62.20:123 0.0.0.0:* 11528/ntpd udp 0 0 127.0.0.1:123 0.0.0.0:* 11528/ntpd udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:123 0.0.0.0:* 11528/ntpd Is there any way or option that only listen 127.0.0.1 for security reason?

Re: [CentOS] Btmp and Wmtp log rotate
by Bob Hoffman 12 Jun '09

12 Jun '09

========= WTMP and BTMP BTMP is getting huge after a year, about 800MB, WTMP is getting close to 1MB. ============== I am on the digest, so I hope this does not start a new thread (responding to my own thread). I went and added a file to /etc/logrotate.d and ran it to rotate the file /var/log/btmp { minsize 1M create 0600 root root rotate 1 } Then I added the same to the logrotate.conf and deleted the file I had added for manual rotation. To /etc/logrotate.conf /var/log/btmp { monthly minsize 1M create 0600 root root rotate 1 } The manual worked. I am gonna delete the 800mb file and call it a wash. Good thing I left enough on that partition to deal with it. Chmod 0600, root/root, add to etc/logrotate.d, monthly. Any other ideas to optimize this are welcome. This was as installed and quite odd that it was not included in the setup. Thanks
