6.2 How to change hostname for each individual IP
by Jonathan Vomacka 10 Apr '12

10 Apr '12

Good day, I was wondering if there was a way to change the hostname for each individual IP address allocated to a system. For example if only one NIC card is being used (single port) and the hostname of the machine is "example.example.org", this hostname is being displayed for all applications no matter what IP I set the application to BIND to. My server has multiple IP addresses setup as an ALIAS and ive tried setting up ptr's, A records, and even specifying the new hostname in /etc/hosts. No matter what I do when I connect to the application it read "example.example.org" which is the hostname of the machine rather then the hostname I want it to read on a particular IP. Is this possible to change?

yum priorities and obsoleting...
by John Doe 10 Apr '12

10 Apr '12

Hey, I ran into a yum conflict regarding an repoforge extra package obsoleting a base package. The thing is that I set a lower priority to repoforge extra... Any idea how come I ran into this issue...? The question is more about the yum priorities than repoforge. ... 1743 packages excluded due to repository priority protections ... --> Running transaction check ---> Package perl-rrdtool.x86_64 0:1.4.5-1.el6.rfx will be obsoleting --> Processing Dependency: rrdtool = 1.4.5 for package: perl-rrdtool-1.4.5-1.el6.rfx.x86_64 ---> Package rrdtool-perl.x86_64 0:1.3.8-6.el6 will be obsoleted --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Package: perl-rrdtool-1.4.5-1.el6.rfx.x86_64 (rpmforge-extras) Requires: rrdtool = 1.4.5 Installed: rrdtool-1.3.8-6.el6.x86_64 (@base) rrdtool = 1.3.8-6.el6 lua-rrdtool.x86_64 1.4.7-1.el6.rfx rpmforge-extras perl-rrdtool.x86_64 1.4.5-1.el6.rfx rpmforge-extras python-rrdtool.x86_64 1.4.5-1.el6.rfx rpmforge-extras rrdtool-devel.i686 1.3.8-6.el6 base rrdtool-devel.x86_64 1.3.8-6.el6 base rrdtool-doc.x86_64 1.3.8-6.el6 base rrdtool.i686 1.3.8-6.el6 base rrdtool-perl.x86_64 1.3.8-6.el6 @base rrdtool-php.x86_64 1.3.8-6.el6 base rrdtool-python.x86_64 1.3.8-6.el6 base rrdtool-ruby.x86_64 1.3.8-6.el6 base rrdtool-tcl.x86_64 1.3.8-6.el6 base rrdtool.x86_64 1.3.8-6.el6 @base ruby-rrdtool.x86_64 1.4.5-1.el6.rfx rpmforge-extras tcl-rrdtool.x86_64 1.4.5-1.el6.rfx rpmforge-extras Thx, JD

totem-nautilus and totem - mp3 duration
by Frank Cox 10 Apr '12

10 Apr '12

I have both totem-nautilus and the assorted gstreamer-plugins installed for playing mp3 files through Totem. I note that Totem doesn't appear to know the duration of an mp3. For example, if I right-click on a wav or ogg file and click on the audio tab, one of the fields is Duration and it tells me how long that file will play. If I do the same with a mp3 file the duration field is always 0 seconds. When I play a mp3 file with Totem the progress bar across the bottom doesn't move and the elapsed time display at the bottom says "Streaming" while counting up the seconds. Have I missed something when setting up Totem to play mp3's? -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com www.creekfm.com - FIFTY THOUSAND WATTS of POW WOW POWER!

Problem with NFS4 and CentOs 5.8
by Veli-Pekka Kestilä 10 Apr '12

10 Apr '12

Hi, I hope someone could give me help with following problem on centos 5.8 kernel and nfs4. On server i have bind mounted directory shared to the client with following setup: mounted directory: /srv/nfs/imagetest on /exports/imagetest type none (rw,bind) /etc/exports file: /exports 10.0.4.0/24(ro,insecure,sync,wdelay,no_subtree_check,no_root_squash,fsid=0,crossmnt) /exports/imagetest 10.0.4.20(rw,insecure,sync,wdelay,no_subtree_check,nohide,no_root_squash) On client I have mounted it with following command: 10.0.4.2:/ on /media/nfs type nfs4 (rw,nodev,sync,proto=tcp,retry=10,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,hard,intr,addr=10.0.4.2) This works fine with kernel: 2.6.18-274.17.1.el5.centos.plusxen But with 2.6.18-308.1.1.el5.centos.plusxen I get the following error: -bash: cd: imagetest/: Not a directory when accessing the share. If I disable nohide-option I can access the directory, but with the contents of the original /exports/imagetest without the mounting. Greetings, -vpk

Need to split long lines in mail archives
by James B. Byrne 10 Apr '12

10 Apr '12

CentOS-6.2 I am investigating how to split long lines present in a Mailman generated html archives. Mailman places the email bodies within <pre></pre> tags and some users have MUAs that send entire paragraphs as one long line. I have looked at fmt and fold but these assume a pipeline from stdout to a fixed filename, which presumably is best done at the time of the original file's creation. I am looking for a way to deal with multiple existing files in a batch fashion so that the reformatted file is written back out to the same file name oin the same location. I cannot seem to hit upon a way to get this to work using find, xargs and fmt (or fold). Nor can I seem to find an example of how this might be done using these utilities. What I would like to discover is the functional equivalent of this: find /path/to/archives/*.html -print | xargs -I {} fmt -s {} > {} This syntax does not work of course because the xargs file name substitution only occurs once in the initial argument list of the following command. But, this example does describe the effect I wish to obtain, to have the original file name receive the reformatted contents. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

vpostmaster and Centos 6
by Tom Bishop 09 Apr '12

09 Apr '12

Read through several vpostmaster email threads via the centos mail list, I am about to go down the vpostmaster bunny hole. I need a spam filter for a very small site, my church, 20 or so mailboxes and just need something easy to setup and maintain. One of my inital thoughts when I was creating the centos 6 VM was what sort of disk space is required, nothing in the docs called anything out, they talked about memory which is not an issue for me and I gave 2Gb for the memory and threw a small disk out of it. Is anyone running it with Centos 6, it appears from the mailing list that it should work with centos 6 but wanted to see if anyone was using it. Also, if anyone has any tips/guides/tweaks that they can recommend/share that would be great, Thanks in advance.

Monitor disc write in preparation for move to Solid State Disc
by Brian Jameson 09 Apr '12

09 Apr '12

I am planning on changing/upgrading one of my systems to Centos 6.x with a solid state system drive and conventional 'data' drives. Any suggestions for a good simple tool, or way to give ongoing monitoring of writes to files on what will become the system drive. The I can then move as much as possible of the changeable files to the data drives. Suggestions much appreciated. regards Brian
