Thank you very much. I checked the dependencies against what was installed as x86_64 versions and cold find nothing missing. Do you happen to know, or strongly suspect, why the 32 bit version works and the 64 bit version does not? -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

by Keith Roberts 21 Oct '12

21 Oct '12

Is there any differences between the repos used by Centos 5.8 and those used by Centos 6.x please - ie does C6 use the same 3rd party repos as C5 does? Is there a Centos wiki article for C6 repos?

Hi all, Is it possible to setup a private local CentOS mirror only for the latest release (http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/) via http only?? I know how to do using rsync, but I need to accomplish this via http service only ... Thanks.

Skype and Sound
by James B. Byrne 19 Oct '12

19 Oct '12

I have installed Skype 4.0.0.8 on my new workstation running CentOS-6.3 (kvm) and the Gnome DTM. This host has an Intel DG43GT motherboard with on-board audio. The sound works when tested in the sound preferences in the desk top. Skype runs and the integrated usb video and microphone both work (I infer this from the mic test in Skype options showing movement on the intensity bar as I can hear nothing). I have gone through all of the choices in the audio setting and none of them work. Are there any other packages or settings I should have installed or set to get audio working in skype? -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

OpenLDAP on CentOS 6.3
by Hugh E Cruickshank 19 Oct '12

19 Oct '12

Hi All: I am attempting to setup OpenLDAP on c CentOS 6.3 platform. I have been able to locate numerous online how to documents but none seem to work correctly on CentOS 6.3. I believe that the reason is the new dynamic configuration (AKA cn=config). Can someone provide me with a pointer or two in the right direction I would greatly appreciated it. I have been fighting with this off and on for the couple of weeks and it is driving me up the wall! TIA Regards, Hugh -- Hugh E Cruickshank, Forward Software, www.forward-software.com

SeaMonkey on CentOS 6.3
by Tim Evans 19 Oct '12

19 Oct '12

Been a while since I used seamonkey, but needed it yesterday. The old version I had installed (2.11) threw an error when I tried it, so I grabbed 2.12.1 from mozilla.com. It throws the same error: $ /usr/local/seamonkey/seamonkey & [1] 7050 $ XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /usr/local/seamonkey/libxpcom.so: libxul.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Couldn't load XPCOM. Of course libxul.so is right there in /usr/local/seamonkey, as it is in the other expected mozilla-related places. Reminds me of the old LD_LIBRARY_PATH issues in Solaris and others. What's the modern way to address this? Is there a yum-installable version of seamonkey somewhere? -- Tim Evans, TKEvans.com, Inc. | 5 Chestnut Court UNIX System Admin Consulting | Owings Mills, MD 21117 http://www.tkevans.com/ | 443-394-3864 http://www.come-here.com/News/ | tkevans(a)tkevans.com

Centos 5.8: starting firefox-16.0.1 kills X
by fred smith 19 Oct '12

19 Oct '12

This just started happening this evening. a little history: way back last year, or thereabouts, I posted about a weird problem I was having. over the course of 2 or 3 days I figured out how to fix it, but not what the cause was. the fix amounts to navigating to my user's .local/share/mime directory and removing the file named "globs". So, back in the present: this evening that same problem recurred for the 3rd or 4th time since the original event mentioned above. so I deleted that file, logged off and back on (without the log off/on, the problem still occurs). Having done that, I went to fire up firefox and KABOOM!! X dies and I land back at a login prompt. several times. every time. tried running firefox from a terminal but I don't see anything echoed to the terminal before it is blown away. I still have the tarball from mozilla.org, so I moved aside the directory where the firefox runtime stuff is, re-extracted the tarball and it still croaks in the same way. I'd appreciate some ideas to try, if anyone has any. Thanks in advance! In the meantime, Opera works (though I can't install 12.0.2 for lack of a suitable version of rpmlib, so I'm not left browseerless.

CentOS6 and pam_access
by lhecking＠users.sourceforge.net 19 Oct '12

19 Oct '12

I just realised that pam_access no longer works under CentOS6 - or it works differently from CentOS5. Under CentOS5, I used this configuration to restrict access to root only: # cat /etc/security/access.conf + : root : ALL - : ALL : ALL # cat /etc/pam.d/system-auth-ac ... account required pam_access.so account required pam_unix.so account sufficient pam_localuser.so account sufficient pam_succeed_if.so uid < 500 quiet account required pam_permit.so ... # Under CentOS6, this has no effect and I can still login as non-root user. What am I missing?
