virt-manager crashes Host during installation of guest
by Bernhard Gschaider 24 Aug '09

24 Aug '09

Hi! I have the following problem: I have a server (CentOS 5.3 x86_64) on which I want to install a virtual Xen-machine (CentOS 5.3 x86_64), I ssh from my workstation (Centos 5.3 x86_64 .... do you see the pattern ;) ) to that server and start the virt-manager. I create a new Guest (Paravirtualiuzed) and point it to the server with the installation files (CentOS 5.3, but I already said that). The manager creates the disk image an then opens the Graphical console for installation. Sometime around the point where the installation program wants me to select the keyboard the graphical console it freezes. The server is completely dead (no console, no disk activity, no ping, only a reset will "repair" it) My question: am I doing something stupid? But I figured "They're all the same system, this must work" I don't want to play around with it too much as the server is also our file-server and people start complaining. So any hint will be greatly appreciated (otherwise I'll have to setup another machine for the guests) Bernhard -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- DI Bernhard F.W.

Firewall and nfs mounts
by Anne Wilson 24 Aug '09

24 Aug '09

Which ports need to be open on a nfs mount server? And does the client need anything opening? I tried setting 2049 udp and tcp, using system-config-securitylevel, but it doesn't seem to save the settings. First, am I trying the correct ports? Second, what am I missing in making the changes stick? Anne -- New to KDE4? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org Just found a cool new feature? Add it to UserBase

Re: [CentOS] Samba "use sendfile" configuration option set do disabled as default - why?
by Per Qvindesland 24 Aug '09

Hi Have you tried this one socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_RCVBUF=65536 SO_SNDBUF=65536 Also look at the log level reduce it to level to or lower. Per --- Original message follows --- SUBJECT: [CentOS] Samba "use sendfile" configuration option set do disabled as default - why? FROM: happymaster23 TO: "CentOS mailing list" DATE: 24-08-2009 12:47 Hello, I had problems with speed of Samba, so I was looking for some solution and I had discovered "use sendfile" configuration option. I was checking all Samba release notes and I had discovered, that from some version (older than is in CentOS repo) this option was turned on as default. So my question is, why in CentOS 5.3 is that option in default set to off? Thank you for responses Martin Šťastný _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Need Java plugin for Firefox in CentOS 5.3
by Robert Nichols 24 Aug '09

24 Aug '09

Somewhere during the course of recent updates I've lost the Java plugin for Firefox. Not sure when it happened, but I know Java was working in Firefox earlier this year. Firefox comes up empty when searching for a suitable plugin. I'm running a fully updated CentOS 5.3 with the following packages installed: firefox-3.0.12-1.el5.centos.i386.rpm java-1.4.2-gcj-compat-1.4.2.0-40jpp.115.i386.rpm java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0-1.2.b09.el5.i386.rpm Any ideas what I'm missing? The Java plugin is not something I use often, but when I need it, I need it. Do I need to dump openjdk and get Java directly from Sun? It looks like libjavaplugin_oji.so went away when Sun Java got replaced by the openjdk version. -- Bob Nichols "NOSPAM" is really part of my email address. Do NOT delete it.

Using Thunderbird as local mail reader
by fred smith 24 Aug '09

24 Aug '09

Hi! I'm trying to figure out how to use Thunderbird as a local mail reader. So far I don't see any way to configure it other than as a POP3 or IMAP mail reader, but I get my mail locally and would like to try using Tbird to read it. What am I overlooking? Thanks in advance! -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex(a)fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ------------------------ ---- Do you not know? Have you not heard?
