problem in getting data through cacti from windows xp
by ankush grover 22 Feb '06

22 Feb '06

hey friends, I am using cacti cacti-0.8.6-1.2 on Centos 4.0. I want to monitor my network through cacti, I have few windows and linux clients in my network. I have created a device or a host for Linux. I am able to get most of the information except Available Disk Space "Unix Available Disk Space". The client is Fedora Core 3 and the system on which cacti is running is Centos 4.0. Moreover I am not able to monitor the Windows XP Clients.The snmp is running on the Windows XP PRO SP2 but the cacti shows "SNMP Error" I am selecting Windows 2000/XP host and snmp version 1 with community string as "public". Please let me know if you need any further inputs. Thanks & Regards Ankush Grover

Below is a cut and past from my log files that are sent to me. This is from the last day that proftpd worked correctly.

RE: [CentOS] mkdir Fail when creating multiple directories

mkdir -p <list of dirs to create> ________________________________ From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org [mailto:centos-bounces@centos.org] On Behalf Of Data Control Systems - Mike Elkevizth Sent: Tuesday, February 21, 2006 4:44 PM To: centos(a)centos.org Subject: [CentOS] mkdir Fail when creating multiple directories Hi, I use the program Unison to synchronize two servers and have been having a problem recently with errors saying mkdir failed. The program tries to make backup copies of any file it is going to overwrite before it actually does the sync. The backups have been failing because of the mkdir failure. To try and find the problem, I logged in as root and then tried the same command that unison was trying and it failed for me also. I can't seem to get mkdir to create more than one directory at a time which is a real problem for unison, because sometimes the file to be backed up is 5 or 6 directories deep. Does anyone know why this could happen? I am running CentOS 4.0 with all the available security updates applied. Thank You, Mike Elkevizth

ports appear as filtered to internal network
by Roger D Vargas 21 Feb '06

21 Feb '06

Im developing an online game. After upgrading from Fedora to Centos 4.2 I noticed I no longer can connect to the server when the client is running outside the Centos PC. Making an udp scan from my internal network with nmap revealed that the port used by game server application appears as "filtered". In my firewall script I have a rule to allow all trafic in the internal interface, so, I dont know why does the port appears as filtered. How can i solve this? -- Roger D.

OT Proftpd stopped authenication for users
by Ed Morrison 21 Feb '06

21 Feb '06

For some reason proftpd stopped authentication for users. Anonymous access still works but when someone tries to access the server via their login it no longer authenticates them. I recently ran yum where proftpd was updated (that said, I'm not sure that caused the problem). I uninstalled the new version and and installed a prior version with no change. Below is a look at my config, a debug cut and paste and the current version I am running. This is a production server with a loss of revenue generation for the company and is imperitive that I get resolved asap. Any help would be appreciated! * Proftpd Conf:* # # This is the ProFTPD configuration file # $Id: proftpd.conf,v 1.1 2004/02/26 17:54:30 thias Exp $ ServerName "ProFTPD server" ServerIdent on "FTP Server ready."

installing on HP DV5000 64 bit
by mrrs 21 Feb '06

21 Feb '06

Has anyone managed to install CentOS 4.2 on an HP dv5000 64 bit laptop? I boot from the install cd, and all of the options I have tried ( return, linux text, linux noprobe, linux lowres ) have had the same result: some text scrolls by really fast ( looks like the start of the install), then the screen goes blank with no activity of any kind. The processor is the turion 64, and it has ATI video. The odd thing is, I was actually able to boot knoppix 4.0 to repartition it for dual boot any ideas would be greatly appreciated. markus __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Serious desktop/mouse problem in Gnome
by Robert Moskowitz 21 Feb '06

21 Feb '06

I have just gone through a java install. Don't know it that is the cause or just someother freeky thing. My mouse is in total run-away mode. Just touch it and it goes all over the place. Things start dropping and draging. The system bar is on the top now and the action bar on the side. If I manage to get a terminal window open and leave the mouse alone, I can type. Also <alt-cnlt-F1> gets me to display 1. If I go back to display 0, everything is still hosed. Any pointers? Some mouse file out of align and too sensitive? How I fix this and reset things?

Detecting second network interface
by Bart Schaefer 21 Feb '06

21 Feb '06

Me again. The ASUS P5N32-SLI motherboard in my new machine has dual NICs but CentOS has only detected one of them. I've tried rebooting with the network plugged in only to the second one, but kudzu still doesn't find it. Any suggestions?
