by fakessh 03 Oct '10

03 Oct '10

Can't login after installing Centos 5.5
by Peter Crighton 03 Oct '10

03 Oct '10

I've done a clean install of Centos 5.5, largely using the default options. Those I changed were: * Changed to KDE Desktop * Added Samba and NFS4 to firewall * Changed NTP servers to those of my ISP When Centos boots what I think is a progress bar shows no progress but eventually (probably about the right amount of time for booting the OS) the user login screen partially appears (username and box, time and name of machine, a flowing "tree" symbol), but the bottom of the screen does not appear to be completed. This login screen clears and redisplays several times. Finally the screen locks with the time displayed in much exaggerated height (about a quarter of the screen height) and nothing more works. At no point can I get to a text login screen (Ctrl-Alt-F1) so I can't even debug it! Can anyone suggest what is wrong or how to overcome it?

The internet filter coming to the US — with barely any dissent
by ☼ francis mendoza 03 Oct '10

03 Oct '10

http://www.crikey.com.au/2010/10/01/the-internet-filter-coming-to-the-us-wi… The US Congress spent yesterday packing up and heading home for mid-term re-election campaigns, having failed its most important job — passing the annual budget. But even this deadlocked Congress is capable of doing what the Australian Labor Party cannot — pass a mandatory ISP-based Internet filter — and do so before the end of the year. Speaker Nancy Pelosi will recall the current congress for a special lame-duck session later this year before newly elected representatives are sworn in, to pass last-minute reforms in case the Democrats lose power, as widely predicted in the polls. Among those reforms include a low-profile copyright proposal with bipartisan, almost unanimous support that just so happens to include censoring whole websites included on a government-run blacklist. The *Combating Online Infringements and Counterfeits Act*(COICA) will blacklist sites that are “dedicated to infringing activities” regardless of where the site is hosted, with exceptions for commercially-oriented sites but not political speech. Originally planned as two blacklists, one controlled by the courts and one by the US Attorney General, the latter was dropped from the bill yesterday after ISPs raised early complaints. Aaron Swartz from Progressive Change and Australian Peter Eckersley from Electronic Frontier Foundation began a petition campaign<http://demandprogress.org/blacklist/> this week to fight the bill at demandprogress.org<http://www.demandprogress.org/>, garnering 100,000 signatures in two days. http://www.crikey.com.au/2010/10/01/the-internet-filter-coming-to-the-us-wi…

Patching openssl rpms
by Al Sparks 02 Oct '10

02 Oct '10

Running CentOS release 5.5. I'm trying to update or patch an SRPMS file, specifically openssl-0.9.8e-12.el5_4.6.src.rpm. Basically, I'm trying to change one line in the source, in ssl/ssl.h. I create a "diff –u" file called openssl-ssl-h.patch. I then edit the openssl.spec file, and add 2 lines to that in the appropriate place: Patch88: openssl-ssl-h.patch And %patch88 -p1 I then do rpmbuild -ba openssl.spec and the last lines of output are: Patch #87 (openssl-fips-0.9.8e-cve-2009-3245.patch): + patch -p1 -b --suffix .wexpand -s + echo 'Patch #88 (openssl-ssl-h.patch):' Patch #88 (openssl-ssl-h.patch): + patch -p1 -s 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file ssl/ssl.h.rej error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.52066 (%prep) The ssl.h.rej file has: *************** *** 497,503 **** /* SSL_OP_ALL: various bug workarounds that should be rather harmless. * This used to be 0x000FFFFFL before 0.9.7. */ - #define SSL_OP_ALL 0x00000FFFL /* DTLS options */ #define SSL_OP_NO_QUERY_MTU 0x00001000L --- 497,503 ---- /* SSL_OP_ALL: various bug workarounds that should be rather harmless. * This used to be 0x000FFFFFL before 0.9.7. */ + #define SSL_OP_ALL (0x00000FFFL^SSL_OP_NETSCAPE_REUSE_CIPHER_CHANGE_BUG) /* DTLS options */ #define SSL_OP_NO_QUERY_MTU 0x00001000L How do I go about troubleshooting this? === Al

error when logging into system
by Ski Dawg 02 Oct '10

02 Oct '10

Hello everyone, I have a CentOS 5 system. On this system, I used the usermod -n and groupmod -g to change the user id and the group id for a standard, regular user from 500 to 1000. I then ran the following commands (as root), to make sure all the files were changed to match: find / -uid 500 -exec chown 1000 {} \; -- and -- find / -gid 500 -exec chgrp 1000 {} \; Now, whenever I try to login as that regular user, I get the following error: id: can't find name for groupd ID 500 I have checked /etc/passwd and /etc/group and both files are correctly showing 1000 as the user and group ids. I didn't see the id isn't listed in either of the shadow files. All of the files in the user's home directory have the ownership and group set to id 1000. I have rebooted the system to make sure nothing was being stored in memory, with the same results. Any other thoughts to look into to correct this error? -- Doug Registered Linux User #285548 (http://counter.li.org) ---------------------------------------- Never trust a computer you can't throw out a window. -- Steve Wozniak

by Dario Lesca 01 Oct '10

01 Oct '10

Hi! I have install Centos 5.5 on HP ProLiant ML110 G6 with RAID-1 hardware active. (00:1f.2 RAID bus controller: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset SATA RAID Controller (rev 05)) I have follow this suggest: http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?la… ... start with "linux dd" and, at the end of setup, install the hpahcisr into kernel 2.6.18-194.el5PAE But after reboot if I run a "yum update" and reboot, the new kernel not contain the driver hpahcisr for new kernel and I get a kernel panic. The question is: How to update to last kernel without lost the proprietary driver? It's possible? Where is the new driver for new kernel? Many thanks. -- Dario Lesca <d.lesca(a)solinos.it>

MegaRAID Storage Manager on CentOS 5.5?
by James Pearson 01 Oct '10

01 Oct '10

Does anyone have the 'MegaRAID Storage Manager' GUI working on CentOS 5.5? I can run it, but it won't let me log in. The docs state that it requires the local root username and password - but it always rejects this with "Message = Login failed: Invalid username or password!" Thanks James Pearson
