by Peter Farrow 26 Feb '06

26 Feb '06

Dear All, I just upgraded my firewall/smarthost to a 2.6 GHz P4 on a Gigabyte board with the ATI RS350 chipset. Unfortunately the chipset isn't support on the kernel and I get slow disk performance lspci gives this: lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon 9100 IGP Host Bridge 00:01.0 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon 9100 IGP PCI/AGP Bridge 00:13.0 USB Controller: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 4367 (rev 01) 00:13.1 USB Controller: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 4368 (rev 01) 00:13.2 USB Controller: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 4365 (rev 01) 00:14.0 SMBus: ATI Technologies Inc ATI SMBus (rev 03) 00:14.1 IDE interface: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 4369 (rev 01) 00:14.2 IDE interface: ATI Technologies Inc ATI 436E Serial ATA Controller (rev 01) 00:14.3 ISA bridge: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 436c (rev 01) 00:14.4 PCI bridge: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 4362 (rev 01) 00:14.5 Multimedia audio controller: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 4361 ( rev 03) 01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon 9100 PRO IGP I am running this kernel: 2.6.9-22.0.2.ELsmp Anybody know if there is a kernel out there to support this chipset?

Well, I just tried new batteries. No different. Now I have cascaded KMS. My graphical Centos boxes are at: Switch 1, 'port' 8 Switch 2, 'port' 1 (port 6 on Switch 1 is the cascading port) This system is on Switch 2, 'port' 5 Tomorrow morning, I will move it to port 4 on switch 1 (only open port on switch 1) and see what happens. The frustrating part is that everything was fine until I did that java install. folllowed by a yum update (which only pulled down a update to yum). If no change, it is back to reinstall. Maybe that is just as well. I had to do a manual disk partition and did not make notes. Redoing it will force me to make some notes....

xen vs. vmware server
by James B. Byrne 25 Feb '06

25 Feb '06

Can anyone offer informed comments on the relative merits of choosing xen over vmware server, or vice versa? The target OS would all be CentOS4.2 or later as they become available. The host hardware would all be 2.8GHz i86-P4 with 250 GB IDE drives and 2 GB RAM. Regards, Jim -- *** e-mail is not a secure channel *** mailto:byrnejb.<token>@harte-lyne.ca James B.

Apache patching questions
by U n d e r a c h i e v e r 24 Feb '06

24 Feb '06

Hi I'm using CentOS 3, and it's fully patched using yum. Apache reports version 2.0.46 (CentOS) A colleague ran a copy of Nikto, a scripted vuln. finder, against my server, and reported the following problems. The only one I've tested is the directory traversal, and it seems to be an issue. Will the upstream vendor patch these issues in Apache 2.0.46, or not? If not, does anyone know why not? # Apache/2.0.46 (CentOS) - Apache 2.0 to 2.0.49 may allow unescaped data into logfiles, which could pose a threat when logs are viewed/parsed. CAN-2003-0020.

Duplicating an install
by Robert Moskowitz 24 Feb '06

24 Feb '06

I just completed YAI. The install was done via HTTP from an HTTP server (duh!). Is there some file I could copy into the directory structure (anaconda-ks.cfg) so that once I point the install to that server, it will do the second install just like the first?
