Please recommend a DVD writer for CentOS 4.1
by Morten 29 Sep '05

29 Sep '05

Hi. I need to install DVD writers in a CentOS box as part of a backup setup. I want as little fuss as possible both with HW recognition and functionality. Can any of you recommend a vendor/product ? Performance of the drive is not an issue. I get confused looking at all the "+/-RW +R double layer yada yada" when skimming the hardware lists.. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks Morten

A little iptables help
by James Pifer 29 Sep '05

29 Sep '05

Wondering if anyone is willing to give me a little assistance with some firewall rules. I think what I'm looking for is fairly simple, and I've been trying to use webmin's firewall module without success. I have a web server that I'd like to open up port 80 and forward a specific port for a select number of allowed ips. That's it. Everything else is dropped. allow: port 80 allow: forward port 8000 for x.x.x.x to y.y.y.y Anyone willing to assist with the rules? And lastly, how would I apply it in a way that it will always be in affect? If the machine reboots for example. Any help is appreciated. James

virtual interfaces
by Ryan 29 Sep '05

29 Sep '05

I have CentOS 4 running on an old (early model) p3 with 64 MB RAM. It is acting as a router and firewall for my LAN. CentOS is doing a really good job with Shorewall + DHCPd - on a 10 Mbps cable modem, I see ~ 9.7 Mbps of throughput even when numerous tcp streams to different LAN hosts are running. I would like to add a virtual interface to one of my LAN interfaces. My LAN interface (/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth2) looks like: DEVICE=eth2 BOOTPROTO=static BROADCAST=192.168.10.255 HWADDR=00:60:08:C3:F9:71 IPADDR=192.168.10.1 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=192.168.10.0 ONBOOT=yes TYPE=Ethernet would adding the below: /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth2:0 DEVICE=eth2:0 BOOTPROTO=static BROADCAST=192.168.20.255 HWADDR=00:60:08:C3:F9:71 IPADDR=192.168.20.1 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 NETWORK=192.168.20.0 ONBOOT=yes TYPE=Ethernet Would this create a virtual interface eth0:0 with the IP address 192.168.20.1? Thanks in advance.

NFS Mount - RH7.3 Server - CentOS 4.1 Client
by Tom Brown 29 Sep '05

29 Sep '05

Hi Just upgrading one of my dev servers - I'm replacing a current box that runs 7.3 to one that runs CentOS 4.1 Currently the 7.3 dev box talks to a fileserver also running 7.3 over NFS and that works fine. I'm now trying to get the CentOS 4.1 box to talk NFS to the 7.3 server. When i try and mount the NFS share on the CentOS box i get the following error # mount /mnt/cvs mount to NFS server 'Server Name' failed: server is down. Now i know the server is not down as the 7.3 client is connected fine. Anyone seen this before or know a work around? Nothing in any logs from client or server to give me any hints? thanks
