Mailman - searchable archive
by Jussi Hirvi 01 Oct '10

01 Oct '10

Mailman works well for our mailing lists, but the archive is unacceptable - the worst thing is lack of search function. I got one tip for this: 1) emails converted to html format with mhonarc 2) search can be done with htdig Opinions? Maybe there are better software solutions for this - I hope. - 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

Transferring system to new RAID drive
by Matt 29 Sep '10

29 Sep '10

> Is there a document with instructions for this? > I've had smartd warnings that a hard disk in my server is sick, > so I am installing a new drive (in addition to the old). Not to hijack a thread but on a similiar note. I have a Centos 4.x server with a 500G sata drive working fine except for disk I/O issues at peak times. I have copied it to a new drive before using 'dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=16384' in middle of night offline. I did that in past because 'smartctl -a /dev/sda' did not work on the old drive. Is there a way to copy it to a hardware RAID 1 array of two drives in a similiar way? If so what not too expensive 2 port hardware raid controller do you reccommend and how do you do it? Thanks.

Acronis True Image or Clonezilla
by Timothy Murphy 29 Sep '10

29 Sep '10

I want to clone a small (80GB) disk on my CentOS server to a large (1.5TB) disk, as smart has been giving me warnings of unreadable sectors. Both disks are Western Digital, and WD has a WD version of Acronis True Image. I'm not sure whether to use this or Clonezilla. My worry with Acronis is that I want to keep the original disk, and I'm not sure from the documentation if True Image allows this. Any opinions on the better of the two? -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland

XFS on a 25 TB device
by Boris Epstein 29 Sep '10

29 Sep '10

Hello all, I have just configured a 64-bit CentOS 5.5 machine to support an XFS filesystem as specified in the subject line. The filesystem will be used to store an extremely large number of files (in the tens of millions). Due to its extremely large size, would there be any non-standard XFS build/configuration options I should consider? Thanks. Boris.

[Slightly OT] "Open Source Development + Tools" - Book/Resource?
by Tim Nelson 29 Sep '10

29 Sep '10

Greetings all- My apologies for the slightly OT post. My primary production platform *IS* CentOS 5.x with a minor scattering of 4.x machines behind firewalls here and there... I find that I'm being placed more and more into a 'quasi-developer' role which strays some from my normal system/network admin duties. Specifically, having to work with the deep internals of make, autoconf, libtool, cross platform compilation, non-standard libs, etc. My head spins some days trying to work through some of these types of issues. I'm hoping someone knows of a good resource or book that explains the general 'open source' or '*NIX' method of application development, compilation, and dependency/library handling. Specifically, how to take source, and turn it into a "./configure, make, make install" type release and everything that is involved in doing so. I certainly have experience compiling, installing, using software in this manner, but I would like (need?) to learn more about how it all works. Google has been helpful if I'm looking for direct documentation of each of the standard tools (gcc, make, autoconf, libtool, etc), but I've been unable to find something that details the components together, and explains their relationship. Again, my apologies for the OT post. I hope some bright minds on the list can shed a few thoughts. --Tim

Forbidden: can't access *.html files in /var/www/html
by Alexander Farber 29 Sep '10

29 Sep '10

Hello, I'm using the latest CentOS with phpBB 3.0.x + postgreSQL + sendmail (relayed through gmail.com) - all those programs working fine, with no big modifications of the CentOS defaults (i.e. SELinux is on). Now I'm struggling with the seemingly simple problem, that when I put an .html file into /var/www/html/ then Apache won't serve it. In the browser I see: "Forbidden You don't have permission to access /Alex.html on this server. Apache/2.2.3 (CentOS) Server at XXXX Port 80" In the /var/log/httpd/error_log (I've set "LogLevel debug") I only see: "[error] [client 10.216.40.68] (13)Permission denied: access to /Alex.html denied [error] [client 10.216.40.68] (13)Permission denied: access to /Alex.html denied" The other filetypes like crossdomain.xml and index.php or hello-world.php are served just fine. Also, if I move my *.html files under /var/www/html/test/ - then they are served ok. The permissions are ok in my book: # ls -al Alex.html index.php hello-world.php -r--r--r-- 1 root root 599 Sep 29 15:49 Alex.html -rw-r--r-- 1 afarber afarber 33 Jul 29 11:32 hello-world.php -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5631 Jun 27 09:38 index.php # ls -ald / /var /var/www /var/www/html drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 4096 Sep 29 15:54 / drwxr-xr-x 22 root root 4096 Jun 22 15:25 /var drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 Sep 29 11:45 /var/www drwxr-xr-x 16 root root 4096 Sep 29 15:59 /var/www/html # cat /var/www/html/.htaccess (installed by phpBB) <Files "config.php"> Order Allow,Deny Deny from All </Files> <Files "common.php"> Order Allow,Deny Deny from All </Files> # /usr/sbin/getsebool -a | grep http allow_httpd_anon_write --> off allow_httpd_bugzilla_script_anon_write --> off allow_httpd_cvs_script_anon_write --> off allow_httpd_mod_auth_pam --> off allow_httpd_nagios_script_anon_write --> off allow_httpd_prewikka_script_anon_write --> off allow_httpd_squid_script_anon_write --> off allow_httpd_sys_script_anon_write --> off httpd_builtin_scripting --> on httpd_can_network_connect --> off httpd_can_network_connect_db --> off httpd_can_network_relay --> off httpd_can_sendmail --> on httpd_disable_trans --> off httpd_enable_cgi --> on httpd_enable_ftp_server --> off httpd_enable_homedirs --> on httpd_read_user_content --> off httpd_rotatelogs_disable_trans --> off httpd_ssi_exec --> off httpd_suexec_disable_trans --> off httpd_tty_comm --> on httpd_unified --> on httpd_use_cifs --> off httpd_use_nfs --> off I've looked into /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and conf.d/ files... Does anybody know what is wrong, how to find out? Regards Alex
