Missing Dependency problem while upgraing a pure (?) whitebox 4 install to Centos 4.2
by Sanjay Arora 15 Mar '06

15 Mar '06

Hi all I don't have the full Centos 4 CD distro, only the minimal server one (single CD). I use whitebox 4 for desktop installs and then change the necessary files whitebox-release, diskdumputils, yum etc. & change it to centos...never had a problem. This time however, I don't know why, but I chose the "Everything" option in the package selection dialog during install. Post installation, I changed the server to centos, by changing the appropriate files & installed postgreSQL 8.1 from local HDD using yum localinstall option...it installed perfectly. Then I gave a yum -y update command & went to sleep...& found the errors below in the morning. I agree that it is not a centos problem...but whitebox too is a RHEL derived OS and quite strict about remaining with the upstream. One doubt I have is that maybe I'm mistaken & the fresh install was not a fresh install after all (done in the middle of night with drooping eyes)...the earlier install on this system was centos 4.2 with centos extras & dag repo enabled and I may have chosen not to format the system & keep data or maybe the upgrade method. Can someone look at the files below & tell me these are from out of centos 4.2 repo and confirm the above doubt (another prob is that the rpm database should have been recreated on fresh install & there should be an upgrade log file in my root from anaconda...not there) Comments? Also, how do I downgrade packages using yum to get out of this dependency hell? Can I do it with one yum command or do I have to uninstall packages creating problems one by one? Sanjay.

For the interested, I've been debugging a similar problem all day yesterday. In my case it's not a transparent proxy, but it's a proxy that for some awful reason doesn't seem to want to support byte-ranges. Python urlgrabber doesn't seem to handle asking for a byte range and getting back the whole file, so it chucks the whole rpm to disk where yum is expecting just the header. So a possible solution is to fix your proxy to handle byte-ranges (assuming that's the problem - a packet sniff of the transaction should show it up pretty quickly, if the response that comes back is a HTTP 200 rather than a HTTP 206) HTH, Craig Miskell ======================================================================= Attention: The information contained in this message and/or attachments from AgResearch Limited is intended only for the persons or entities to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.

can't boot from install cd
by Richard Andrews 15 Mar '06

15 Mar '06

We are migrating from Fermi Labs linux distro to the Centos 3.6 distro. So far all of the Dell's we have installed on have worked fine but we have two generic servers that are using Tyan Thunder K7X motherboards with built in Adaptec Ultra 160 SCSI using AIC7899 chipset. When we try to install on these systems the install cd seems to lockup loading the AIC7xxx driver. Adaptec says they do not support OEM embedded products and Tyan says that any embedded firmware is included in the bios upgrades which we have upgraded. We can migrate "online" by following the White-box to Centos migrate instructions and that works fine but it worries me that if I lost a hard drive in one of these systems I could not install Centos directly. Any suggestions for work arounds? Thanks Rich A.

error while loading shared libraries: libpam.so.0
by Ian mu 15 Mar '06

15 Mar '06

Hiya all, am currently running centos 4 on a dual xeon (emt64). I get the following error.."error while loading shared libraries: libpam.so.0" from a dell info app. I'm guessing its because currently it wants the 32bit ver of pam? (As the file can be found fine in /lib64). Tried linking, but guessed that wouldn't work. Does it need a compat set of libs for it libpam.so.0, or is it ok to just yum install pam.i386 or is that going to break it, so was hoping for some gentle guidance as not so familiar with the 64 bit side yet :/. Thanks in advance, Ian

Printing problem
by Jose Alburquerque 14 Mar '06

14 Mar '06

Hi. I've been running CentOS 4 since it was released (since 4.0). I did a fresh install and have kept it updated using up2date and yum so at present my system is running CentOS 4.2. I mostly use my system as a super-user and so I can mostly do everything without worrying too much about permissions. Not too long ago I created a "general" user account which is automatically logged in after a few seconds for others to have (limited) access to the system (default desktop is GNOME). Mostly everything works (ie. CD/DVD writing, sound, floppy access, etc.) But when it comes to printing, only a specific "lpr" at the command prompt (in a terminal) does the job. I've tried printing from mozilla, ggv and firefox without success. The funny thing is that an app such as gedit does print. (I'm guessing it's because gedit uses some sort of a2ps -> lpr combination). I have an Epson Stylus C82 connected via a USB cable and my system is running CUPS. Can anyone enlighten me? Thanks so much. Sincerely Jose Alburquerque

PXE boot, Kickstart NFS install and %include...
by Will McDonald 14 Mar '06

14 Mar '06

I was just wondering how (or indeed if) people use the %include directive in Kickstart configuration files when building systems via NFS. I've been trying to modularise our Kickstart files a little to make things more readable, having generic defaults and role specific stuff split out into separate configs. I've tried this configuration... [root@archive kickstart]# cat centos4-install-ks.cfg # Kickstart to build default CentOS system # # $Id: centos4-install-ks.cfg,v 1.2 2006/03/13 14:21:32 root Exp root $ # # Setup kickstart defaults (keyboard, NFS server etc.) %include /opt/kickstart/include/kickstart.cfg # Setup partitions (mailstore specific) %include /opt/kickstart/include/disk.cfg # Package list to install %packages %include /opt/kickstart/include/packages.cfg %post # Setup /etc/hosts with required ip/name mappings (mailstore specific) %include /opt/kickstart/include/hosts.cfg # Setup CentOS Yum repository %include /opt/kickstart/include/centos4-yum.cfg # Add CentOS GPG key used to sign their RPM packages rpm --import /usr/share/doc/centos-release-4/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4 # Setup Dag repository %include /opt/kickstart/include/dag4-yum.cfg # Setup users and their authorized_keys %include /opt/kickstart/include/users-and-keys.cfg # Setup secure SSHD configuration %include /opt/kickstart/include/secure-sshd.cfg # Setup Sudo %include /opt/kickstart/include/sudo.cfg # Setup Nagios Remote Plugin Execution %include /opt/kickstart/include/nagios-nrpe.cfg # Setup Bacula, /etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf still needs to have the finalised # hostname entered manually :( (for now) %include /opt/kickstart/include/bacula.cfg # Install "standard" additional components yum -y install keychain bash-completion multitail webmin And a sample of one of the modular configs... [root@archive kickstart]# cat include/secure-sshd.cfg # Lock down sshd_config to only accept SSH2 keybased auth mkdir -p /etc/ssh/RCS ci -t-"Main SSHD configuration file." -u /etc/ssh/sshd_config co -l /etc/ssh/sshd_config cat <<EOF > /etc/ssh/sshd_config # # Main SSHD configuration file. # # \$Id\$ # # FILE UNDER RCS, DO NOT EDIT WITHOUT CHECKING OUT!!! Port 22 Protocol 2 HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key HostKey /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key SyslogFacility AUTHPRIV PermitRootLogin without-password StrictModes yes PubkeyAuthentication yes AuthorizedKeysFile .ssh/authorized_keys IgnoreRhosts yes PasswordAuthentication no X11Forwarding yes EOF ci -m"Kickstart: Secured SSH configuration, locked down to keys-only config." -u /etc/ssh/sshd_config Which doesn't work, Anaconda runs and starting prompting for input as it would for a manual install. If I include everything pre-%post (IYSWIM) in the main Kickstart file then everything works as expected up till the %post %includes when Anaconda complains it can't find blah.cfg, presumably because it's not local. I could live with the body of Kickstart config in the main file and then manually NFS mount and reference the modular configs, if I have to, but I wondered is there a better method? I've Googled around a bit and found these threads from '02... https://www.redhat.com/archives/kickstart-list/2002-May/msg00184.html https://www.redhat.com/archives/anaconda-devel-list/2005-October/msg00080.h… Which clarify what's going on but not really how people deal with %include and NFS. Will.

The warning message tells you the line number of the entry in the known_hosts file: Add correct host key in /home/rmy/.ssh/known_hosts to get rid of this message. Offending key in /home/rmy/.ssh/known_hosts:22 RSA host key for localhost has changed and you have requested strict checking. Host key verification failed. Ron
