Hello, Anyone running netatalk on CentOS? Appears that the newer version 2 has no rpms that I could find. Trying to install from source didn't do the job either. Would appreciate some help/input. Thanks

Signing key for recent x86_64 CentOS-3 updates
by Nels Lindquist 27 Oct '04

27 Oct '04

(reposting 'cause I sent the last one from a non-subscribed address) Hi there. I tried "yum update"ing my x86_64 CentOS-3 box today, but the packages won't install and yum claims I don't have an appropriate signing key. I've been happily doing updates all along (last time was Oct. 12) with no trouble. The key ID used to sign the x86_64 packages is 219180cddb42a60e and the key ID used to sign the i386 packages is 7049e44d025e513b. Is there a new key just for the x86_64 build? ---- Nels Lindquist <*> Information Systems Manager Morningstar Air Express Inc.

Release of centos-3.3 ISP bill
by Greg M. Kurtzer 27 Oct '04

27 Oct '04

It turns out that the release of Centos-3.3 was so popular, that it threw us way over the threshold of our ISP's, and now we are stuck with a _very_ large bill (as in an estimated 6TB of transfers). While in one hand I am ecstatic that we are so successful, but on the other hand, that is coming out of the developers pockets. The developers should be the last ones footing these bills (and this one was very large). You can help. Please consider a donation for each of the systems that you are using. A reasonable donation we think starts at $12US per system per year. That money is only spent on infrastructure and development. $12 is much cheaper then a magazine subscription, and if everyone contributes their share, we will be able to grow our infrastructure to better handle our growing user base, and continue to provide software to the community. Please visit http://www.caosity.org/contributing/ to do your part. -- Greg M. Kurtzer http://runlevelzero.net/ http://caosity.org/ http://warewulf-cluster.org/

RE: Release of centos-3.3 ISP bill
by Rick Graves 27 Oct '04

27 Oct '04

Greg, Maybe a glitch in CentOS or YUM made the bill higher than it needed to be. I recently moved two systems from CentOS 3.1 to 3.3. On both machines, I started with yum.conf files pointed at my own mirror. On both machines, all I did was "yum update", but my yum.conf was renamed, and I got new yum.conf files pointed at mirror.centos.org. I was watching this carefully only because I migrating these two systems in part to test my own mirrors. If not for that, I might not have noticed the switch. (And because I am testing my own mirrors, I got rid of the new yum.conf files and put my own back immediately.) Maybe lots of other sites got switched to mirror.centos.org and they have not even noticed. Or they assumed the upgrade switched them because cAos wants them to update off mirror.centos.org, so they left the new yum.conf as is. This could be the main cause of the big bill. Rick
