CentOS 6.5 printer weirdness...
by Robert Heller 10 Aug '14

10 Aug '14

Ok, it is consistent and repeatable: *Everytime* I do a routine 'yum update' on the CentOS 6.5 server (64-bit) the printers (both of them networked laser printers, one an [old] HP Laserjet 4200 and one a [new] Brother MFC-9970CDW), cups loses the ability to print (its filter chain becomes broken). According to the CUPS mailing list, this error is 'never' because of of problem with cups, but always with the 'underlying operating system' -- eg the 'underlying operating system' has messed with the filters CUPS uses for the printers. So is this a *known* problem? Or is there something Redhat has done to the distributed cups RPM (or is it something the CentOS developers have done to the Redhat source rpm)? I noticed that the update I just did included an updated cups RPM. The *appearent* cure (workaround?) is to delete the printers, and re-install them. Has anyone else had 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

centos 7 iscsi saveconfig doesn't
by me＠tdiehl.org 08 Aug '14

08 Aug '14

Hi, I am working to get iscsi running using targetcli. So far everything seems to be working except for the fact that when I run saveconfig, exit the targetcli shell and reboot, the iscsi configs are gone. If I run restoreconfig, the configuration gets reloaded and all is well. Can someone tell me how to get the targetcli configuration to persist through a reboot? Regards, -- Tom me(a)tdiehl.org Spamtrap address me123(a)tdiehl.org

Per process memory monitoring tool
by przemolicc＠poczta.fm 08 Aug '14

08 Aug '14

Hi all, I am looking for a tool which let me monitor memory consumption per process on CentOS 5/6. The tool should be able to save its history so I could see what amount of memory was consumed yesterday/week ago/etc by each process. Can you recommend anything like that ? Best regards P.

sssd and authconfig and ldap database lookups
by Mauricio Tavares 08 Aug '14

08 Aug '14

So I am feeling rather frustrated with sssd today: 1. I see that when you install sssd (this is centos 6), sssd.conf is not created. https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/ht… implies that if I want to use sssd I need to create the sssd.conf file first. Any reason why? 2. I also noticed if sssd.conf is not there, authconfig won't create it even if you tell it to --enablesssd. How so? I thought that if you are using sssd, it would have stuff like kerberos and ldap (to pick a couple of examples) configured there. 3. It seems if I want to, say, define ldap_user_search_base I must do it directly in sssd.conf instead of passing some kind of argument to authconfig. Am I correct? If so, which files does authconfig affect? I thought it was the *proper* way to configure all the authentication thingies so to make sure they all played together. But, it seems that you have to configure sssd.conf and then use authconfig... or not. Brain hurts

KVM in CentOS 5?
by Marko Vojinovic 08 Aug '14

08 Aug '14

Hi folks, I've been trying to do some KVM virtualization on a C5 host, and to my surprise, there seems to be no kvm package in any of the repos. Yum install kvm says: No package kvm available. Nothing to do This machine is a CentOS release 5.10 (Final) with the 2.6.18-371.11.1.el5 kernel. Also, the docs related to C5 on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/KVM seem to be terribly outdated. What am I missing here? TIA, :-) Marko

rsyslog does not log on a separate partition/FS mounted on /var/log/
by Arun Khan 07 Aug '14

07 Aug '14

The system is an AWS Instance based on a community CentOS 6.4 AMI snapshot. The vdisk is as follows as shown below [1] The root LVM contains /var/log/ I have attached another block device with ext4 FS. I copied the files from /var/log to this device (mounted on /mnt) and then changed /etc/fstab to mount this device on /var/log on boot. However, I do not see anything being logged in /var/log/messages. To test the logging, I used the 'logger' command to log some string; nothing appears in /var/log/messages. 'service rsyslog status' reports the daemon is running. When I stop rsyslog, umount the /var/log device and then restart rsyslog, I can see that logs are being recorded in /var/log/messages. Using the 'logger' command I can see messages written in /var/log/messages. man pages of ryslog.conf and rsyslogd show nothing related to logs being on a separate device Any pointers to fix the problem would be much appreciated. [1] Disk /dev/xvda: 8589 MB, 8589934592 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/xvda1 * 1 64 512000 83 Linux /dev/xvda2 64 1045 7875584 8e Linux LVM Disk /dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root: 7205 MB, 7205814272 bytes Disk /dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_swap: 855 MB, 855638016 bytes -- Arun Khan

CentOS 6 - Lost Console Login
by Kirk Bocek 07 Aug '14

07 Aug '14

Just had a problem with CentOS 6.5 x86_64 after the last kernel upgrade. It looks like the boot sector got hosed somehow and the system was unbootable. I was able to fix it with a boot to an install image USB and running grub-install. System is now bootable. However, I've lost the system console. No login prompt is provided at the console. The system boots and is remotely accessible. Services seem just fine. I don't see any error messages after booting, either dmesg or /var/log/messages. Can anyone tell me what packages provide console login so I can try a reinstall. Thanks.

Centos7 - Terminal not blanking
by david 07 Aug '14

07 Aug '14

Folks Apparently "new" in Centos 7 is that the terminal screen does not blank after a period of time. This is a server configuration, and no GUI is involved. Is there some magic setting I need to tweek? Thanks in advance David
