Hi CentOS community Friends, It is CentOS 6.2 x86_64 machine, i have upgraded few packages using "yum -y update", after the reboot machine does not show login screen, i have allowed enough time to show the screen that are about 2 hours. booting process does complete, it just hangs when it is about to show the screen. i tried to check by doing ssh for warring/error logs. nothing serious was there. but when i did the ssh to the server then i saw the following error. Prior to the upgrade machine was just okay.. ) MacBook-Pro:~ prabhpal$ ssh -l mike 41.211.25.233 mailer(a)41.211.25.233's password: -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied -bash: /dev/null: Permission denied Thanks / Nath

'yum update' rollback or .. ?
by przemolicc＠poczta.fm 22 Jun '12

22 Jun '12

Hello, we have several physical servers (CentOS 5.*) with rather critical applications where (because of stability) we don't do regularly 'yum update'. In virtualized environemnts (under Vmware) we do a snapshot, then 'yum update', reboot and if something is wrong we rollback the snapshot. On physical servers we cannot do that. I have read about rollback option of rpm but not sure if this is reliable solution. What is your best practise regarding "rollbacking" 'yum update' on physical servers ? Regards Przemyslaw Bak (przemol)

Realtek chips are junk with unpredictable reliability, especially under heavy load. I have had several problems with various versions of the 81xx chips. When I tossed the cards in the garbage and switched to Intel-based NICs, all the problems went away. Every time I build systems with Realtek network chips on the motherboard, I disable them in the BIOS and add Intel NICs instead. YMMV, but please consider ditching Realtek altogether. Chuck

Hanging issue with sudo command
by Kaplan, Andrew H. 21 Jun '12

21 Jun '12

Hello -- We are running Centos 5.2 64-bit on a system that functions as a mail server, and also runs a virtual server via the Virtualbox application. A user account was given sudo access via the sudoers file several years ago, and that account has worked well with various administrative jobs on the server. Recently it was observed the user account took longer to complete its login from a terminal window and console. It is also now having problems when running the sudo command. Essentially when the user runs the command, the latter hangs, and the administrator is forced to log in as root, and kill the hung progress. What would cause this issue to occur, and how can it be corrected? Thanks. The information in this e-mail is intended only for the person to whom it is addressed.

how is this possible?
by Bob Hoffman 21 Jun '12

21 Jun '12

I got a spam today (from a yahoo server, surprise!) with nothing but a single link. http:// 2927755261/ I separated the http so it would not be a link in your email... suggest not going to it without proper measures. it takes you to a record search site. When I look up this number block here, http://www.ip-adress.com/ip_tracer/2927755261 it comes up with a different ip address... The ip address has no correlation to the numbers I searched for though. How is it possible to have a url that does not conform to the internet standards? Even ip addresses need 'periods' between each group of numbers.... and everything seems to require a period somewhere or the browser will get angry. At first I thought it was some kind of browser hack, but then the iptrace pulls up an ip. so how is this possible?

Bug in Latest Adobe Flash Plugin
by Keith Roberts 20 Jun '12

20 Jun '12

I'm running Centos 5.7 32 bit with Firefox 10.0.5 ESR Not sure if this has been mentioned on the list yet, but the latest version of Adobe flash-plugin 11.2.202 has a bug which causes it to hang and not play SWF files. I've been pulling my hair out trying to identify why I could not get any SWF videos to play. I finally found the answer here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1080414 I have downgraded the flash-plugin now to version 10.3.183 from rpmforge repo. It works fine now :) I've also added exclude=flash-plugin to the end of /etc/yum.conf file, to make sure this does not get upgraded again.
