a VNC client suitable to monitor 15 desktops in 1 screen, automatic reconnect. Exists?
by Andres Salazar 17 Feb '10

17 Feb '10

Hello, Is there a VNC client out there that can permit me to run it 15 times simultaneously and scale them smaller so that I can view 15 little remote screens (at the same time) in my one big monitor? Also, is there a way to make it so if the PC is rebooted the client automatically reconnects ? The goal of this is to have one big monitor to view in realtime what people are doing in their PCs. Without interaction from me with the mouse/keyboard.. all I need to do is watch. A plus if this VNC client is compatible with MacOS/windows Andres

SAS raid controllers
by Gordon McLellan 17 Feb '10

17 Feb '10

Is anyone running either the newish Adaptec 5805 or the new LSI (3ware) 9750 sas raid controllers in a production environment with Centos 5.3/5.4? The low price of these cards makes me suspicious, compared to the more expensive pre-merger 3ware cards and considerably more expensive Areca ARC-1680. I've been 'burned' by the low cost of Promise raid cards (just as this group pointed out, they're crap cards!), but I'm still not convinced that most expensive == best. When it comes to parallel scsi cards, Adaptec has always been my choice regardless of platform, but I've never used their serial scsi products. I have several older pre-merger 3ware cards installed and have been working flawlessly for years, but under a windows environment. I noticed none of these manufacturers are listed on the upstream provider's HCL, yet they all eagerly claim "Linux" support on their respective websites.. The Adapetc website actually names both Centos and the upstream provider as 'supported'. Kind Regards, Gordon

Load Balancer (heartbeat, ldirectord, ipvsadm) + Apache Problem
by Roberto HT 17 Feb '10

17 Feb '10

Hi, I'm having this problem with load balancer. I already setup the load balancer and two servers behind it with this kind of topology ----------------------------------------------------- request -> DIRECTOR -- Server 1 \ Server 2 ----------------------------------------------------- DIRECTOR's (RHEL 5) Virtual IP = 192.168.1.1 Server 1's (RHEL 4.4) Virtual IP = 192.168.1.2 Server 2's (CentOS 5.3) Virtual IP = 192.168.1.3 The problem is when I try to hit the 192.168.1.1, it sometimes give me a HTTP 200 and sometimes it will timed out. I hit it using lynx -dump. It should return "Hello world!" if success. But if we hit it directly to 192.168.1.2:80 and 192.168.1.3:80, it will return HTTP 200 which means no error and no timeout. Since the Server 1 is the same as Server 2 in configuration, are there somethings I missed here? Another information is that I set the director using round robin algorithm, so everytime a successful hit returned from server 1, the next one is surely heading to Server 2 right? Based on the Apache's access log, I also knew that the timed out occured when it is the Server 2's turn to handle the request. Aside from the same httpd.conf and the same httpd version are there any things in the system level, kernel level that should be the same between those two servers? Thanks. Roberto

Anyone using Active Driectory auth with Centos 5.4.....?
by Tom Bishop 17 Feb '10

17 Feb '10

Setting up a new backuppc for a small group of device and I am running centos 5.4 with winbind setup and working. Everything is working and I would like the users to authenicate using their AD creds and was wondering what folks are using to do that with apache 2.2 and centos 5.4. I know about mod_auth_pam but that seems pretty dead so I was just wondering what folks were using and whats the easiest to setup. Any pointers to any how to's would be appreciated...Thanks.

priorities don't prevent other repos overwritting packages?
by Stephen Harris 16 Feb '10

16 Feb '10

Either I've made a mistake in my configuration or else packages from other repos can obsolete core packages For example, I did a "yum update" on some rpmforge packages and saw this: Installing: perl-Date-Manip noarch 5.54-2.el5.rf rpmforge 210 k replacing perl-DateManip.noarch 5.44-1.2.1 perl-IO-Compress noarch 2.024-1.el5.rf rpmforge 242 k replacing perl-Compress-Zlib.i386 1.42-1.fc6 If I try to install the original packages: % yum install perl-Compress-Zlib Loaded plugins: priorities 476 packages excluded due to repository priority protections Setting up Install Process Package perl-Compress-Zlib is obsoleted by perl-IO-Compress, trying to install perl-IO-Compress-2.024-1.el5.rf.noarch instead Package perl-IO-Compress-2.024-1.el5.rf.noarch already installed and latest version Nothing to do % yum install perl-DateManip Loaded plugins: priorities 476 packages excluded due to repository priority protections Setting up Install Process Package perl-DateManip is obsoleted by perl-Date-Manip, trying to install perl-Date-Manip-5.54-2.el5.rf.noarch instead Package perl-Date-Manip-5.54-2.el5.rf.noarch already installed and latest version Nothing to do I have rpmforge with priority=10 I have the centos base and update repositories with priority=1 Have I made a stupid mistake with my configuration? -- rgds Stephen
