Mail notification in panel/system tray on CentOS 6
by Toralf Lund 25 Jan '13

25 Jan '13

Hi. Does anyone know of a way to add a "new mail" notification icon to the panel/system tray under CentOS 6? On CentOS 5, I used the "mail-notification" software package provided by the Fedora "EPEL" distribution, but this is gone from the version 6 repository, and the one from version 5 won't install just like that due to dependency issues. Maybe it's possible to resolve those, but I'm wondering if that's the way to go, or if there is a better alternative these days. - Toralf This e-mail, including any attachments and response string, may contain proprietary information which is confidential and may be legally privileged.

CentOS 5.8, Adaptec 6405 but lsmod lists dmraid?
by Jobst Schmalenbach 24 Jan '13

24 Jan '13

Hi I have (actaully on a number of machines) various Adaptec card installed, yet lsmod shows "dmraid" loaded? How come? I thought that dmraid is software raid? Is this part of the booting and if so How do I tell mkinitrd NOT to make it part of the bootup process?

Software Updater issue
by Mark LaPierre 24 Jan '13

24 Jan '13

Hey All, Heads up! For some reason the Software Updater thought it would be interesting for me if it upgraded my nvidia 304 driver with the nvidia 310.32-1 driver. That would be nice if the 310 driver supported my crusty old GS 7600 but it doesn't. I had to run two yum downgrade sessions to get it back to working again. First downgrade brought me 310.19-2, which doesn't support my video card, in place of 310.32. The second downgrade restored the 304 driver. I'm not sure about this but that seems like a bug when it thinks that the 310 driver package is an upgrade for the 304 driver package.

How to setup RAID 5 + 1 hot spare?
by Ren Wen shan 24 Jan '13

24 Jan '13

Hello everyone, I am new to this group so please forgive me if this question has been already asked. With four identical hard drives, I want to setup RAID 5 + 1 hot spare by a fresh CentOS (6.3) installation. I have read this article ( http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Deployment_Guide-en-US/s1-raid-config.html) and watched this video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qm3MkuTfDLw) now I have the basic ideas. However, due to my limited experience and knowledge on this area, I am still confused. To make things easier, I only need a swap and a `/' partition. Could you give me any hint on this? What should I read to get the basic knowledge? How can I setup a simple RAID 5 + hot spare? Regards, - Meatball

load balancer recommendations
by Boris Epstein 24 Jan '13

24 Jan '13

Hello all, The question is not necessarily CentOS-specific - but there are lots of bright people on here, and - quite possibly - the final implementation will be on CentOS hence I figured I'd ask it here. Here is the situation. I need to configure a Linux-based network load balancer (NLB) solution. The idea is this. Let us say I have a public facing load balancer machine with an public IP of, say, 50.50.50.50. It is to receive the traffic (let's say, HTTP traffic) and then route it to two private HTTP servers, let's say, 192.168.10.10 and 192.168.10.11. It has to have persistence - i.e., be state- and session-aware. If for whatever reason one of the servers goes down the remaining pool shares all the traffic in some fashion (be it eound robin, saturation based, whatever). We have tried Vyatta ( http://vyatta.org/ ) and ZeroShell ( http://www.zeroshell.org/ ) and both are very good but their NLB seems to be externally facing (i.e., you have several internet connections and are trying to divide your traffic between them). What we need is an "internally facing" one, if I may say so. Any advice on what may help us would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Boris.
