CentOS 5.5 x64, HP ProLiant Microserver and eSATA
by Andy Holt 27 May '11

27 May '11

Hello all. Not sure how many people here also frequent the CentOS forums, so apologies for the 'cross post'. I know some here are using CentOS on HP's ProLiant Microserver, so if anyone's tried eSATA on their box, please let me know. Perhaps best to reply over at the forum - https://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?viewmode=flat&topic_id=3… Thanks Andy

calendar

Folks, My manager's asked me about something that can run on our CentOS boxes that can connect to an (bleah!) Exchange server's calendar. It doesn't look like Lightening can, and from some googling, it appears that Evolution claims to, but.... It's got to be able to set dates, etc. Can Evolution? Any other suggestions? mark

securing ldap with tls and security
by David Mehler 27 May '11

27 May '11

Hello, I'm trying to set up a centos 5.3 machine to do authentication via openldap. I've got it working, I'm not sure if I have it 100% right, but I can use ldapsearch to query the directory, use finger, id, chown, and other utilities with ldap usernames and groups, log in via ssh as an ldap user and if it's a new user automatically have the home directory created. Having got this far if anyone with a working ldap authentication system could give my config a sanity check let me know. My goal now is to get tls encryption going so that usernames and passwords aren't sent in the clear. I'm using self-signed certificates for now. Any help appreciated. Thanks. Dave.

yum check-updates script not working correctly
by brian 26 May '11

26 May '11

Hi all... A few weeks ago, I installed (and configured) the three recommended scripts to run yum update check via cron.daily on my CentOS 5.6 server (a Dell 2650). Although it is clearly configured to "check only", it appears to be updating, instead. Has something (environmentally?) changed between the version of CentOS under which those scripts were originally authored and version 5.6, or do I have something (and please, tell me what!) mis-configured somewhere?? Every couple of days (when there are updates, obviously) I'll see something like this in my Logwatch report: --------------------- yum Begin ------------------------ Packages Updated: nss_ldap-253-37.el5_6.1.i386 poppler-0.5.4-4.4.el5_6.17.i386 ksh-20100202-1.el5_6.5.i386 poppler-utils-0.5.4-4.4.el5_6.17.i386 ---------------------- yum End ------------------------- The scripts are set up as follows: in /etc/cron.daily/yum.cron: --------------------- yum.cron -------------------------- #!/bin/sh # Pull in sysconfig settings . /etc/sysconfig/yum-check if [ -f /var/lock/subsys/yum ]; then if [ ${CHECKONLY} = "yes" ];then /usr/bin/yum-check fi else /usr/bin/yum -R 10 -e 0 -d 0 -y update yum /usr/bin/yum -R 120 -e 0 -d 0 -y update fi ---------------------------------------------------------- in /etc/sysconfig/yum-check: ---------------------- yum-check ------------------------- # yes sets yum to check for updates and mail only if patches are available # no does enable autoupdate if /var/lock/subsys/yum is available CHECKONLY="yes" # defaults to root, leave empty if .forward/alias in place for root MAILTO="" # Set to yes for debugging only!
