Web proxy/content filter w/ AD integration
by Joseph L. Casale 09 Jun '08

09 Jun '08

I need to setup a proxy that does transparent auth to AD, does anyone have experience or suggestions for a setup that will run in CentOS? I came across an article on integrating Squid with Windows AD for auth but it doesn't auth transparently (is that even possible?). Thanks! jlc

EVMS?
by drew einhorn 07 Jun '08

EVMS Enterprise Volume Management System sounds interesting, looks like it supported CentOS4, but not CentOS5. But maybe I'm not looking in the right places. -- Drew Einhorn

using /dev/hda system to build initrd for /dev/sda system
by Jerry Geis 07 Jun '08

07 Jun '08

I think I have booting issues for my custom kernel on centos 4. the sda system cannot find the disk. I used a qemu image to build a centos 4 MATH_EMULATION kernel. This system has /dev/hda. The system I am putting the vmlinuz and initrd files on is a /dev/sda system. I dont think the initrd image is getting built correctly. Does this make sense? What might I look at changing to ensure my initrd is made correctly. Jerry

Live CD?
by MHR 07 Jun '08

07 Jun '08

I just used a Live CD for the first time today, in part to show what CentOS can do for a co-worker who is looking at using it at work and home, but I got the strangest result. We booted the CD and let the centos user log in. It took a really long time to load the desktop and there were no panels, so the only things we could do were browse the computer, CD, home, file system, keyboard (sort of) and pretty much nothing else. <alt><f2> and <alt><f1> did nothing, either - no menu, no input windows - nada. Is that normal? If not, what did I/we overlook? I was expecting a lot more, and from looking around the wiki, there should have been, but I couldn't find a good reference for what the Live CD is supposed to be able to do or let a user do. Thanks. mhr

SELinux error message on CentOS 5: "multiple same specifications"
by Filipe Brandenburger 06 Jun '08

06 Jun '08

Hi all, I just installed a CentOS 5 machine from Kickstart. I configure NSS and PAM to lookup and authenticate users from LDAP with authconfig. On my LDAP I also have some automount configuration, but I'm not running automount on this server. SELinux is installed and enforcing. Whenever I try to install an RPM (and in other occasions during boot) I see those messages: # rpm -Uvh ... .rpm /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts: Multiple same specifications for /usr/local/lost\+found/.*. /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts: Multiple same specifications for /usr/local/\.journal. /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts: Multiple same specifications for /usr/local/lost\+found. The RPM installs fine, I guess those are just warnings. (Actually, /usr/local is practically empty, and there are no lost+found or .journal there, so I guess those are really innocuous.) I dug in deeper and I found out that the source of the problem is most probably in this file: /etc/selinux/targeted/contexts/files/file_contexts.homedirs Among its contents are these lines: /usr/local/[^/]*/.+ user_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 /usr/local/[^/]*/.*/plugins/nprhapengine\.so.* -- user_u:object_r:textrel_shlib_t:s0 /usr/local/[^/]*/.*/plugins/libflashplayer\.so.* -- user_u:object_r:textrel_shlib_t:s0 /usr/local/[^/]*/((www)|(web)|(public_html))(/.+)? user_u:object_r:httpd_user_content_t:s0 /usr/local/[^/]*/\.mozilla(/.*)?/plugins/libflashplayer\.so.* -- user_u:object_r:textrel_shlib_t:s0 /usr/local/[^/]* -d user_u:object_r:user_home_dir_t:s0 /usr/local/lost\+found/.* <<none>> /usr/local -d system_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 /usr/local/\.journal <<none>> /usr/local/lost\+found -d system_u:object_r:lost_found_t:s0 I saw that /home and /root are there, since they are really home directories. But /usr/local shouldn't be there! And there's a fourth directory there, which is based on the name of our NFS fileserver: /colossus/users/[^/]*/.+ user_u:object_r:user_home_t:s0 /colossus/users/[^/]*/.*/plugins/nprhapengine\.so.* -- user_u:object_r:textrel_shlib_t:s0 /colossus/users/[^/]*/.*/plugins/libflashplayer\.so.* -- user_u:object_r:textrel_shlib_t:s0 /colossus/users/[^/]*/((www)|(web)|(public_html))(/.+)? user_u:object_r:httpd_user_content_t:s0 /colossus/users/[^/]*/\.mozilla(/.*)?/plugins/libflashplayer\.so.* -- user_u:object_r:textrel_shlib_t:s0 /colossus/users/[^/]* -d user_u:object_r:user_home_dir_t:s0 /colossus/users/lost\+found/.* <<none>> /colossus/users -d system_u:object_r:home_root_t:s0 /colossus/users/\.journal <<none>> /colossus/users/lost\+found -d system_u:object_r:lost_found_t:s0 I tried to edit the file to remove the offending entries, but after I installed another RPM I saw that the file was regenerated with the other entries. So, I would like to know: Where is this coming from? How is this file being generated? What's the command that generates it? Which command (semanage?) apart from rpm can I use to reproduce and test the problem? (In other words, another command that won't install or change anything on the system but check the integrity of this file.) How can I tweak or control the way this file is generated? Thanks a lot! Filipe

Frequent Gnome Terminal crashes in CentOS 5.1
by Alfred von Campe 06 Jun '08

06 Jun '08

Ever since I upgraded all my systems to CentOS 5.1 I have been getting reports from users about "all their windows disappearing". A little digging revealed that they meant all gnome-terminal windows. Since there is only one gnome-terminal process by default for all your open terminal windows and tabs, a crash of that process means losing all your terminal windows. These crashes often (but not always) occur over night when the system is otherwise idle. A quick Google search found a problem on Ubuntu related to VTE (the terminal emulator widget used by gnome-terminal) but not much else of interest. Has anyone on this list experienced this? I find it hard to believe I'm the only one. I never saw this issue while running CentOS 4.X on these systems... Alfred
