how to identify build options
by kqt4at5v＠gmail.com 20 Oct '14

20 Oct '14

If using the standard CentOS packages is there a way to print the options that were specified when the package was built? For example # rpm -qi at Name : at Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 3.1.10 Vendor: CentOS Release : 44.el6_5.2 Build Date: Tue 07 Oct 2014 03:35:22 AM CDT Install Date: Fri 17 Oct 2014 02:38:44 PM CDT Build Host: c6b9.bsys.dev.centos.org Group : System Environment/Daemons Source RPM: at-3.1.10-44.el6_5.2.src.rpm Size : 86228 License: GPLv2+ Signature : RSA/SHA1, Tue 07 Oct 2014 07:57:22 AM CDT, Key ID 0946fca2c105b9de Packager : CentOS BuildSystem <http://bugs.centos.org> URL : http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/a/at Summary : Job spooling tools Description : At and batch read commands from standard input or from a specified file. At allows you to specify that a command will be run at a particular time. Batch will execute commands when the system load levels drop to a particular level. Both commands use user's shell. You should install the at package if you need a utility for time-oriented job control. Note: If it is a recurring job that will need to be repeated at the same time every day/week, etc. you should use crontab instead. What options were used to build this package? Richard

CentOS 5.11 / Firefox 31 -- totally borked...
by Robert Heller 20 Oct '14

20 Oct '14

OK, I just updated my two CentOS 5 boxes (my laptop and by desktop) and discoved that FF 31 is totally borked -- it seems not to be possible to install either Firebug (either 2.0.4 or 1.12.8) or Firefox 2, the theme reloaded (1.0.8). These two addons are critical to me. So I have snaged the FF 24.8.0 rpms from the CentOS 5 vault and downgraded to this version and blocked further updates of FF. Where is the best place to report this problem? -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 Deepwoods Software -- Custom Software Services http://www.deepsoft.com/ -- Linux Administration Services heller(a)deepsoft.com -- Webhosting Services

djbdns under CentOS7: startup and socket issues
by Boris Epstein 20 Oct '14

20 Oct '14

Hello all, I am trying to get djbdns ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Djbdns ) running on CentOS 7. So far I have wirtten the djbdns.service and djbdns.socket files. The sockets (TCP and UDP 53) for some reason would not start and I don't know how to debug that; the service does start but only when I start it manually by running systemctl start djbdns So, I am a real noob when it comes to systemd, hence any advice on how to proceed will be much appreciated. Cheers, Boris.

Your experience with os hardening tool - Bastille?
by Rafał Radecki 19 Oct '14

19 Oct '14

Hi All:) I would like to start using a tool for automating of os hardening. I found some informations about Bastille. One things which attracted my attention is that in http://bastille-linux.sourceforge.net/news_updates.htm the last post is from January 29th, 2012 :D Is the tool ready to use at the moment with CentOS 6/7? Are there any alternatives which you can recommend? Thanks for all info :) BR, Rafal.

CentOS-6 updates
by Johnny Hughes 19 Oct '14

19 Oct '14

We are currently building and testing our CentOS-6.6 release. It normally takes about 2-4 weeks for us to get a full point release out. We can not release updates that are based on 6.6 until we get 6.6 out. All current updates will be released on the same day as the release. We have a CR repo ( http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/CR ) and we are likely going to release the CR repo around 7-10 days after the release of RHEL-6.6. All updates will also be released into there when it is released. Please remember, there are around 350 Source RPMs that need to be built and tested for 6.6 and it normally takes 7-10 days for CR and 14-28 days for the full release. We are going as fast as we can, but point releases take time. Thanks, Johnny Hughes

KVM does not start anymore
by Bernd Bartmann 19 Oct '14

19 Oct '14

Hi, I had a C7 virtual machine running on a C7 host for several weeks without any problems. Today I rebootet the host and now the virtual machine does not start anymore. I can see grub coming up and starting the kernel. After some seconds the last thing that is visble on the VM console is "ss perfctr msr (MSR c1 is0)" then the screen goes blank with just a blinking cursor in the upper left corner. After that nothing happens anymore. The CPU load on the host is nearly 0%. Any ideas what could be the reason and how to solve this? Best regards, Bernd

Centos 7 tmpwatch
by Frank Cox 18 Oct '14

18 Oct '14

I have noticed that tmpwatch isn't automatically installed with Centos 7, or at least it wasn't when I set up this computer. I further noticed that the Centos 7 tmpwatch rpm no longer includes /etc/cron.daily/tmpwatch I suspect that at least part of the reason for this is because the /tmp directory is now mounted as a tmpfs by default, so it's automatically cleared when the machine is rebooted. However, this does nothing to maintain /var/tmp and /var/cache Installing the Centos 7 tmpwatch rpm and copying the /etc/cron.daily/tmpwatch file from a Centos 6 installation onto a Centos 7 machine might not be particularly wise because the excluded directories listed in the Centos 6 tmpwatch script don't include such things as the systemd-private* directories that should probably not be made to disappear on a Centos 7 installation. This leads to two questions: Is tmpwatch even required on Centos 7 anymore, or has it been superseded somehow? And if it is required (or a good idea), is there an updated script to put into /etc/cron.daily that accounts for directories and files that should not be molested by tmpwatch? -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com
