Re: [CentOS] Problem getting eth0 up
by Lisandro Grullon 17 Aug '11

17 Aug '11

Is you network card even loaded when you type "ifconfig -a" in the $hell? Give us more details as to what you are doing to get the DHCP address. >>> Alfred von Campe 08/16/11 4:57 PM >>> I'm just starting to test CentOS 6 in our environment, and as a first step did a basic install from DVD (Desktop target, all defaults). Next I will try to automate the installations as I did for CentOS 5 using the anakonda-ks.cfg file generated by the manual install. However, I can't wrap my brain around the new NetworkManager to get it to configure the eth0 interface to obtain an IP address from our DHCP server. I've seen the FAQ on the wiki and the interface is up, but it doesn't get an IP address. I've done the installation from DVD multiple times now, each time with the same result. What am i missing?

OT?
by Dave Stevens 16 Aug '11

16 Aug '11

I have a CentOS server with postfix running. A pop user's account was compromised and a lot of spam started being sent. My upstream ISP's mail program started refusing to talk to me because of the very high rate of mail, error 451. I disabled the compromised account. I then changed the postfix settings to deliver mail directly and flushed the mail queue. This resulted in spam being sent out. There were about 20K mails in the queue. I don't know how I might have handled this better, I would have preferred to not send the spam, but the volume was large and the labour of sorting out spam from legit email was prohibitive. Advice? A better list for this issue perhaps? Dave -- "It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society." Krishnamurti

Are file system mounts costly?
by Reynolds McClatchey 16 Aug '11

16 Aug '11

I recall a kernel parameter on Unix System V of number of mounted file systems. Max recommended was 8. Larger numbers slowed down inode location and impacted performance. Has Linux solved that bottleneck? Are 20 or 30 mounted efs and cifs file systems on one system OK? -- M Reynolds McClatchey Jr VP Engineering and Inventory Southern Aluminum Finishing Co Inc 404-355-1560 x222 Voice 1581 Huber St NW 404-350-0581 Fax Atlanta GA 30318

ext4, 4k sector alignment
by Les Mikesell 16 Aug '11

16 Aug '11

I've mentioned this problem before but put off doing anything about it and maybe now someone can suggest the best solution. I have a 3-member RAID1 set where one of the members is periodically swapped and rotated offsite. The filesystem contains a backuppc archive which has millions of hardlinks that make it impractical to copy with a file-oriented approach. The current filesystem is ext3 with one partition that uses the entire disk capacity (no lvm). It works as is, but... I'd like to use a laptop size drive for the swapped member and the only ones available that match the size have 4k sectors. I have swappable, trayless SATA bays available for both drive sizes. The problem is that with the current partition layout, the drive with 4k sectors takes more than a day to re-sync even though on read access the speed is a match for the full sized drives that sync in a few hours. My questions for any filesystem experts are: Is there a way to adjust the existing md partitions to get the right alignment for 4k sectors without having to do a file-oriented copy to new partitions? A resize + a dd copy to shift the position might be feasible time-wise if that would work. Is it worth converting to ext4? Is there a difference between doing this on 5.6 or 6.x? If I start over from scratch with 6.x, will the partitioning tools automatically align for 4k sector drives (with/without lvm?)? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

How to open several tabs in a gnome-terminal window and run a command in each tab?
by Pete O'Connell 16 Aug '11

16 Aug '11

"gnome-terminal --tab-with-profile=AAA --tab-with-profile=BBB" Hi I am trying to open several tabs in a gnome-terminal window like above. I want to run a command for each tab within the body of the above command. AAA and BBB are both profiles I have created and also predefined environment variable on my system (each representing a path to a folder). The code I was hoping would work was something like: "gnome-terminal --tab-with-profile=AAA -e='ls AAA' --tab-with-profile=BBB -e='ls BBB'" in order to list the folder contents within each tab, but no dice. Anyone know how to do this in a single command? Thanks Pete

However nothing new shows in /etc/yum.repos.d Looking at it, the downloaded file, I notice a catalogue-file string of /./etc/yum.repos.d/ Where has the file gone ?
