pcl to pdf
by Gregory P. Ennis 14 Feb '13

14 Feb '13

Everyone, I am currently using a vsifax program (pcltotiff) to convert pcl files to tiff files on a SCO Unix box, and then I am using tiff2pdf on a Centos 5.9 box to convert the file to a pdf. There are other commands that deal with multiple page tiff's and pdf's that are part of the process, but the above basic process has worked very well. The only thing I would like to enhance is a better resolution of the tif file and therefore the pdf file; the problem being the resolution capability of pcltotiff that comes with vsifax. I am limited on the SCO box as to what I can install; it is too old to admit to, and is scheduled to be upgraded to a new Centos system. Obviously, I can get the pcl file to the Centos system easily, do any of you have suggestions of being able to convert a pcl file to pdf on the Centos system. Greg Ennis

selinux and tinydns
by Philip Manuel 14 Feb '13

14 Feb '13

Hi all, tinydns starts up fine, selinux reports no issues (now after a day of clearing errors). If I turn selinux back to permissive in /etc/sysconfig/selinux, and reboot, tinydns responds to queries. If I turn selinux back to enforcing and reboot, tinydns does not respond. Monitoring /var/log/messages shows no errors from iptables/shorewall or selinux. The only way I can find an error is performing the following:- netstat -npl | grep tinydns # gives me the process id strace -f -p <process id> From this I can see that tinydns is reporting an error of:- recvfrom(3, 0x606720, 513, 0, 0x7fffc7321ec0, 0x7fffc7321edc) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) I've got setroubleshoot set to send me an alert on first occurrence of an issue, so far none received. Does anyone know how I should proceed from here ? Thanks Phil.

check file changes within several directories
by Mihamina Rakotomandimby 14 Feb '13

14 Feb '13

Hi all, I forgot the name a sofware (I think it was something related to security) wich checks for file content/permission changes, on a cron trigger basis. I could then have the list of added/changed files. I dont want to use some selfmade git-based or "find|xargs"-based piece of scripts. Thank you. -- RMA.

Overdue upgrade of bind
by Robert Moskowitz 13 Feb '13

13 Feb '13

I am **FINALLY** starting in on upgrading my domain server. Right now it is still on bind-9.3.6 via Centos 5.5. Stepping right up to 9.8.2 in Centos 6.3. I am pretty good with zone files and the like, though I will finally get to tackle DNSSEC (and I can go to the sources Austien, Vixie, and Liu if need be or even the bind list!), but right now I have much more mundane issues. Like it looks a bit like the chroot tree has changed! In particular under /var/named/chroot/etc I use to put my named.conf with all the include files. Now I see sub-directories named and pki there. I am ASSuMEing that pki will be for the DNSSEC; but where is the documentation? I tried looking for readme files, but can't find anything related to the chrooted bind environment. What file is the location of named.conf set up in? The zone files look to go in the same place I have them on the old server under /var/named/chroot/named/var/named.

Intel video
by Birta Levente 13 Feb '13

13 Feb '13

Hi all Please someone tell me how can I enable intel video driver on centos 6.3 x86_64? It's an acer laptop (5736z) with Mobile intel 4 Series graphics. I tried with Xorg -configure, but give me an error something like number of created screens not match number of detected screens. Anyway, I tried to copy xorg.conf.new to /etc/X11/xorg.conf and reboot, removed nomodeset ... on laptop display I can't see anything, even the backlight is turned off, but on the VGA output appear the desktop background without menu, taskbar and icons and I can switch between tty-s. Could anyone help me? Thanks Levi

mdadm: hot remove failed for /dev/sdg: Device or resource busy
by Keith Keller 12 Feb '13

12 Feb '13

Hello all, I have run into a sticky problem with a failed device in an md array, and I asked about it on the linux raid mailing list, but since the problem may not be md-specific, I am hoping to find some insight here. (If you are on the MD list, and are seeing this twice, I humbly apologize.) The summary is that during a reshape of a raid6 on an up to date CentOS 6.3 box, one disk failed, and was marked as such in the array, but is not allowing me to remove it: # mdadm /dev/md127 --fail /dev/sdg mdadm: set /dev/sdg faulty in /dev/md127 # mdadm /dev/md127 --remove /dev/sdg mdadm: hot remove failed for /dev/sdg: Device or resource busy And in dmesg, I get an error like so: md: cannot remove active disk sdg from md127 ... More details, including mdadm -D output and other diagnostics, are at http://www.spinics.net/lists/raid/msg41928.html . As I note there, the array seems fine otherwise, but is not currently in active use (so perhaps my options are greater than if I wished to keep it deployed). As the other messages in that thread show, I think I've already done the ''obvious'' steps to try to remove the device from the array. Checking things out further, I found that it may be that udev did not completely remove the disk, even though the controller no longer believes that the exported unit exists. (udevadm output is here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/raid/msg41950.html ) So my hypothesis is that if I can somehow force udev to drop the references to the disk completely, perhaps I can remove sdg from the array and start a rebuild with the spare already available. I found these docs for Fedora: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/14/html/Storage_Administration_… But of course I can't do step 3, since md is refusing to give up sdg. But sdg is already gone, so I really don't care about outstanding IO, and it's a bit too late to worry about a 100% clean removal. So my questions are, will step 7 actually clean up references to sdg, and how likely is it that doing so would let me remove it from the array? And finally, if the above is not a wise way to go, are there better things to try? If other diagnostic output is desired please let me know. Thanks! --keith -- kkeller(a)wombat.san-francisco.ca.us
