UID GID Problems.....
by Tom Bishop 19 Jan '10

19 Jan '10

Hoping someone can help me fix something that I apparently messed up, i have the issue that when I untar a file as root the uid and gid that get set are not roots'. I had change a user uid and gid to 1000 via usermo -u etc.... but somehow it appears to have effected the root user. When I touch files as root the correct uid and gid are root, however when untaring an archive the directory and files are uid and gid =1000. Hope someone can point me in the right direction....oh yea, running centos 5.4, and when I run the command id = uid=0, gid=0, etc,,,,all appear to be right for root....Thanks in advance.

19 Jan '10

Hi All, All of my systems are running 5.4 x64. The are all AMD x64 processors with at least 2gb of RAM in each. I am running SSH on a non standard port. When I SSH into ANY of my systems, I get prompted for my password right away, but after entering, it takes 30+ seconds to get logged in and get a prompt so I can work. I dont quite know what to look for here Does anyone have thoughts? -Jason

CentOS 5 and webex wrf files?
by Scott Ehrlich 18 Jan '10

18 Jan '10

Anyone have experience playing back a Webex wrf file on their CentOS 5.x system? I have a newly installed CentOS 5.4 i386 system and want to play such a file, but the Webex.com web site says it only supports Windows and MacOS for playback. Any other options next to creating a VM of Windows (I'm not buying a Mac for this). Thanks. Scott

I think nobody has yet mentioned rdiff-backup. I have very good experiences with it. Easy to setup and control (only remember first to install the required packages, and I think rsync-devel was not mentioned but is required). Rdiff-backup keeps up an exact copy of the source director(ies), plus it maintains a separate directory for deleted/changed items. With an appropriate command you can restore the source directory as it was at a given point of time. Very neat, and space-saving. http://rdiff-backup.nongnu.org/ - Jussi -- Jussi Hirvi * Green Spot Topeliuksenkatu 15 C * 00250 Helsinki * Finland Tel. +358 9 493 981 * Mobile +358 40 771 2098 (only sms) jussi.hirvi(a)greenspot.fi * http://www.greenspot.fi "Remember that if you can't understand an answer, it's okay, we'll just keep going forward as if you do." -- Peter Gulutzan, "MySQL 5.0 Stored Procedures"

Don't forget to use the '-E stride=XX,stripe-width=YY (where XX and YY are replaced with the appropriate values) options creating your filesystem on the RAID. Otherwise your disk drive usage will have 'hot spots' and slower than optimal speed. Do a man mke2fs to understand how to use them correctly. -- Benjamin Franz
