CentOS 5 file system read only issue
by Xinhuan Zheng 21 Aug '19

21 Aug '19

Hello Everyone, We are using CentOS 5 system for certain application. Those are VM guests running in VMware. There is datastore issue occasionally, causing all file systems becoming read only file systems. So application stop working, and opened files cannot be written either. We cannot even ssh login to the system. Typically we had to power cycle the VM. We are trying to add reliability to the application so that if files cannot be written, application should time out. We are trying to use IO::Select to handle timeout. Per investigation, we found below does not work as expected: my $s = IO::Select->new( $fh ); if ( $io->can_write( 10 ) { # print to the file } It seems like can_write returns true even we manually made file system read only in our testing case. Is this something we can accomplish using select system call with timeout value? Thanks in advance, - Xinhuan Zheng

CentOS Amazon Machine Image?
by Robert Moskowitz 20 Aug '19

20 Aug '19

I am totally new to AWS. There was a posting here ~ a year ago making claims about setting up a CentOS image on AWS. I have created a free AWS account and am looking at the available images. None are named CentOS. There is a Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 and Amazon's own Linux and SUSE, Ubuntu, but I don't find CentOS. This is a learning endeavor. I was thinking to first set up a BIND slave for my domain. Then move on to a http image, then work with MariaDB. All to see what I can do with AWS that is familiar to what I do on my own servers. Any pointers greatly appreciated.

CentOS 6 SELinux question: inbound ssh.
by Robert Heller 18 Aug '19

18 Aug '19

OK, after beating my head against the wall for an hour or so, I finally figured out why I could not ssh from a MacMini (running MacOSX 10.11.6) to my Linux Desktop (running CentOS 6), using the amandabackup account with public key authentification. SELinux! It seems the SELinux won't allow this if the target user's "home" directory is does not have a <mumble>_home_t security context. It there some trick/hack to fix this *specifically* for the amandabackup account? Right now the amandabackup $HOME is /var/lib/amanda/ and its security context is system_u:object_r:amanda_var_lib_t:s0 It of course needs to retain this for amanda to work. But I need to do something non-standard: I am not able to build a *working* version of the amanda client on the Mac. Despite what it says on the amanda.org website, Amanda is basically not supported under BSD (MacOSX is basically BSD) and I am not getting help on the Amanda mailing lists. I need to backup this machine, so I am going to punt and resurect a script I was using before I started using Amanda and do an independent backup process, but I want to put the backups on the same disk that amandabackup is using and the disk is set up to be written by amandabackup, so I want to use the amandabackup to write the files, using ssh from the amanda account on the Mac. Is there some hack to get SELinux to cooperate with this scheme? Or do I have to do something else? -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 Deepwoods Software -- Custom Software Services http://www.deepsoft.com/ -- Linux Administration Services heller(a)deepsoft.com -- Webhosting Services

Hi, I'm currently trying to install 389 Directory Server on CentOS, but it looks like related packages are broken. Here's what I get: # yum install 389-* ... --> Processing Dependency: libadminutil.so.0()(64bit) for package: 389-dsgw-1.1.11-5.el7.x86_64 --> Processing Dependency: libadmsslutil.so.0()(64bit) for package: 389-dsgw-1.1.11-5.el7.x86_64 ---> Package avahi-libs.x86_64 0:0.6.31-19.el7 will be installed ---> Package libfontenc.x86_64 0:1.1.3-3.el7 will be installed ---> Package python-lxml.x86_64 0:3.2.1-4.el7 will be installed --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Package: 389-ds-1.2.2-6.el7.noarch (epel) Requires: 389-console Error: Package: 389-admin-1.1.46-1.el7.x86_64 (epel) Requires: libadminutil.so.0()(64bit) Error: Package: 389-dsgw-1.1.11-5.el7.x86_64 (epel) Requires: libadminutil.so.0()(64bit) Error: Package: 389-admin-1.1.46-1.el7.x86_64 (epel) Requires: libadmsslutil.so.0()(64bit) Error: Package: 389-dsgw-1.1.11-5.el7.x86_64 (epel) Requires: libadmsslutil.so.0()(64bit) You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest Any suggestions ?

Availability of rsyslog-8.24.0-41.el7_7.x86_64
by Dennis Well 16 Aug '19

Hey there, RedHat released the new version 8.24.0-41 of rsyslog on 2019-08-06. We need some fixes of this version and would like to know about which time this version will be available for CentOS. http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/Packages/ still lists rsyslog-8.24.0-34 ( 2018-11-12). Currently I assume the maintainer might be on vacation? CheersDennis

failing to install LibreOffice 6.3.0.4
by Fred Smith 14 Aug '19

As in subject, am attempting to install latest LibreOffice on C7. unpack all the rpm files, type "yum install *.rpm", or "yum localinstall *.rpm" and yum spews the list of filenames (with the word "examining" in front of each file) then says "nothing to do". what the hey? I tried "yum clean all" but it didn't help. I also verified the sha256sum of the download. Anyone got any good advice? thanks in advance!

DHCP and no network for long time
by Jerry Geis 13 Aug '19

Odd thing happened... A centos 7 install set for DHCP. boot the box no network connected. I let it like this overnight. I come in this morning and plug in the network. Is it supposed to get a DHCP address at that time ? It did not . service network restart did get an address. if I unplug the network, reboot the box, want a minute or so - then plug the network in - it gets a DHCP address. Is there a "limit" to the time that the OS will keep trying to get a DHCP address ? Thanks, Jerry
