Locked myself out of MySQL
by Todd Cary 26 Mar '11

26 Mar '11

Darn! I must have either made a typo or my use of a ";" in the MySQL root password so now I am locked out. Is there a work around or do I have to uninstall MySQL and reinstall? Todd -- Ariste Software Petaluma, CA 94952 http://www.aristesoftware.com

Mounting an external USB drive
by Todd Cary 26 Mar '11

26 Mar '11

With Centos 5.5, my external USB drive appears to self mount in that the icon appears on the desktop and when I double click on it, the files are there. However, I recall that I need to make an entry in the fstab as well as some other changes. When I do a # /sbin/fdisk -l I learn that the device is /dev/sda1 and the system is HPFS/NTFS I am not sure what to enter into the file system table, fstab and if other entries/directories need to be made.

Default permissions for creating a new user
by Todd Cary 26 Mar '11

26 Mar '11

I know this is a Linux 101 question, however I am unable to locate the answer in my O'Reilly Linux book: how to set the default for permissions when creating a new user. The default for the GUI in my newly installed Centos 5.5 is 700. I usually use 774. And when root creates a new directory, is there a way to have a default there too? Lastly, if root or someone with root privileges creates a sub-directory, is there a setting so that the sub-directory will have the owner/group and permissions as the parent directory?

How to limit ftp users to just view their directory
by Todd Cary 25 Mar '11

25 Mar '11

I am in the process of bring up Centos 5.5. My ftp server is vsftp. When I add a user (e.g. brian), the "brian" directory is owned by "brian" and is in the "brian" group with 700 permissions. However, using a FTP client, the user "brian" can view all of the directories. I do not see any directive in vsftpd.conf to limit this. What have I missed?

Can't build PHP 5.3.6 with MySQL 5.5.10 on CentOS-4
by Santi Saez 25 Mar '11

25 Mar '11

Hello, I'm trying to build PHP 5.3.6 in a CentOS-4 server with MySQL 5.5.10 and I get this error: //usr/include/mysql/my_config_i386.h:610:1: warning: "PACKAGE_NAME" redefined /usr/include/mysql/mysql/psi/mysql_thread.h:100: error: syntax error before "pthread_rwlock_t" /usr/include/mysql/mysql/psi/mysql_thread.h:100: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union /usr/include/mysql/mysql/psi/mysql_thread.h:107: error: syntax error before '}' token /usr/include/mysql/mysql/psi/mysql_thread.h: In function `inline_mysql_rwlock_init': /usr/include/mysql/mysql/psi/mysql_thread.h:683: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type/ Full build log is available at: http://pastebin.com/NBfB5PzZ This only happens on CentOS-4 with GCC 3.4.6, I can build PHP 5.3.6 with 5.5.10 in CentOS-5 without problems. Also, there is no problem building with MySQL 5.5.8 and previous versions. The problem **only occurs with MySQL 5.5.9 or MySQL 5.5.10** and any PHP version on C4. Anyone knows how to fix this problem? thanks!! Cheers, -- Santi Saez http://powerstack.org

Remote-logging nginx? (or other non-syslog-enabled stuff)
by Dr. Ed Morbius 25 Mar '11

25 Mar '11

I'm looking for suggestions as to a good general method of remote-logging services such as nginx or anything else which doesn't support syslog natively. I'm aware that there's an nginx patch, and we're evaluating this. It may be the way we fly. However there are other tools which may not have a patch for which remote logging would be useful. If there's a general soution (something as naive as tailing local logs and firing these off on a regular basis). I've heard rumors of a Perl script used for apache logs. Also that rsyslog supports logging from local files to a remote syslog server, possibly. I'm RTFMing on that.

Apache/Active Directory authentication
by Dvorkin, Asya 25 Mar '11

25 Mar '11

Hi everyone, I'm trying to figure out the best way to accomplish below project and would appreciate your input. I need to setup a web page on CentOS with Active Directory authentication. So far I've accomplished the following: - Setup httpd.conf to successfully authenticate against AD by passing my username/passwd. <Directory /var/www/html/secure> Allow from All AuthType Basic AuthName "Ldap test area" AuthBasicProvider ldap AuthzLDAPAuthoritative on AuthLDAPURL "ldap://server:389/OU=OU=name,OU=area,DC=core,DC=test,DC=edu?sAMAccountName?sub?(objectClass=*)" AuthLDAPBindDN "username@core" AuthLDAPBindPassword password require valid-user </Directory> - In addition, I used LikeWise software and was able to successfully join AD. I was wondering if there is a way to do http authentication without passing my username/password considering server is already binded to AD, thus authenticated. Would I be able to utilize PAM authentication for this purpose? # httpd -v Server version: Apache/2.2.3 Server built: Aug 30 2010 12:28:40 # more /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5.5 (Final) Thank you! Asya
