Restart after crash

Hi, Is it possible do have fsck to run automatically [without operator intervention], if it was not a clean shutdown. Right now, somebody has to bring a monitor & keyboard and say Y, if not it will not run and verify the drive. This is for remote headless servers. -- Thanks http://www.911networks.com

Re: [CentOS] ATA-over-Ethernet v's iSCSI
by Dave Hornford 09 Nov '05

Nick, What are you planning on running over the shared connection? Database, eMail, File Shares? How many users? How much data? What is your I/O profile? I've worked with 'enterprise' storage most of my career either as a consumer, adviser or provider - can't comment on AoE other than to suggest you look at what are the business & technical goals, how they solve it and what is your risk profile against the business need of the system. (I'm currently working as an adviser) When you have an opportunity to chase into "enterprise support" of new disk is usually comes down to insufficient time for testing, or known problems (heat, torque, variability in sample, failure rate & edge-case incompatibility with previously certified products are normal) You have hinted with the concern over TCP offload that you may have higher-end performance needs and that this system carries a high business value and needs a lower risk solution. Remember risk is a cost. regards Dave www.hornfordassociates.com >Nick Bryant >Subject: [CentOS] ATA-over-Ethernet v's iSCSI > >Just wondering if anyone out there has any opinions or better still >experience with Coraid's AoE products in a centos environment? > >We're looking at developing a very basic active/standby 2 node cluster >which will need a shared storage component.

sendmail & mail() in php
by hiep＠ee.ucr.edu 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

Hello everyone, I tried to configure sendmail so that I can use mail() in php. I don't host my email server, my ISP does. I just want to configure sendmail so that it uses external email server (my ISP) to send mail. When I executed mail(), i got no error report from php. I checked /var/log/maillog and it indicated that the message was accepted for delivery. However, it didn't delivery and indicated DSN: Service unavailable. Can someone help or suggest any other way to get this thing works? I'm not in the position to setup and a fully function email server for this at this time. I just want to use my ISP email server for now. thank you so much for all your help.

USB Stick Install
by Bards1888 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

Hello all, I'm looking at setting up a sort of 'appliance' server and as such its really not going to have a lot packages etc. I thought of installing 4.2 on a 1gb USB stick, however, the stick is not even recongnized by anaconda. It did appear when I did 'modprobe usb-storage.ko' as /dev/sdc (i have already have 2 SATA disks which are sda, sdb). Then the disk partitioner does not allow me to install on the USB stick, its not even listed as an available drive. Does anyone have any redhat/centos experience with this ? I've successfully managed to get OpenBSD and Ubuntu to install and boot on exactly the same kit so there is nothing wrong hardware wise. I might try and disconnect the SATA drives before attempting the install to see if that make any difference. Thanks. Bards.

centosplus kernel
by Johnny Hughes 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

Just for the record, we are currently working with someone from SGI to get a much better implementation of XFS working with the centosplus kernel. I want to wait to push the centosplus unsupported kernel (2.6.9-22) until we have this new and much more stable version of XFS code implemented.

Syslog x Samba VFS audit
by Marcelo Renan Becher 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

Hello all, Recently I,ve activated the Samba vfs audit module on my CentOS server. Then, I configured syslog to save the events, how open files, create directories.. in /var/log/samba/audit.log, but the same information are being stored in /var/log/messages too.. How I can configure Syslog to store this informations only in messages log file? Bellow, a part of my syslog.conf user.*;user.!warn /var/log/samba/audit.log *.info;mail.none;local5.none;authpriv.none;cron.none;auth.!=info /var/log/messages Thanks, -- Marcelo Renan Becher Linux User: #296657 pMSN: morgaux{at}hotmail.com Skype: marcelod2.gmail.com

Packages
by Sam Drinkard 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

I am in need of the udunits and udunits-devel packages. I know I remember seeing the udunits package on the CD's but don't recall seeing the udunits-devel. Looking at the rpm-pbone.net, I only found versions avilable for FC. Would it break a bunch of stuff to install both packages on a 4.1-i386 system ? Also looked via yum, at Dag's repository, and mirrors, but nothing shows up for it. I'm still new enough to CentOS to not know where and what I can install from other versions without breaking things... Sam -- Snowman
