RDP for Centos 7
by me＠tdiehl.org 22 Jun '17

22 Jun '17

Hi, Does anyone know of a good program for doing RDP to windows servers on C-7? The "Remote desktop viewer" program that comes with C7 is not reliable for me. I frequently have multiple long running RDP sessions and the keyboard will stop responding. The only way I can find to get it started again is to restart the program and login to the servers again. In addition, I cannot find a way to make copy and paste work. On the plus side, I like the way Remote desktop viewer displays the desktops in tabs. Suggestions? Regards, -- Tom me(a)tdiehl.org Spamtrap address me123(a)tdiehl.org

why would ls, while or ci use NIS?
by Dave Burns 21 Jun '17

21 Jun '17

I have an entry in root's crontab: #ls -1 /etc/RCS|sed "s~$.*$,v~\1~"|while read file; do ls -la /etc/$file|ci -q -l /etc/$file ;done Error output I received: do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = No route to host YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound This looks like NIS (DNS?) error output, but what could be invoking anything that uses NIS or DNS in that command? ls, ci, and while don't need it unless they are applied to some NFS mounted file, but this is executed as root with a *local* home directory on *local* files, no need for YP. The only hypotheses I can think of are "my copies of bash or ci have been compromised" or "I am stupid". Enlighten me, please. Dave

I didn't want to join yet another mailing list.... Is anyone/everyone having issues? Our hourly cron job checking update is failing on EPEL: Updateinfo file is not valid XML: <open file '/var/cache/yum/x86_64/7/epel/gen/updateinfo.xml', mode 'rt' at 0x1dd46f0> When I try to look at it, it appears to have binary data in it. mark

CentOS 6: cannot open gnome-session
by wwp 21 Jun '17

21 Jun '17

Hello there, trying to open Session settings in GNOME's System/Preferences, I get this error: ===== Error opening current splash image. The current splash image filename is: /usr/share/pixmaps/splash/gnome-splash.png ===== I get this exact same error on 2 different CentOS 6 systems (up-to-date). On both systems, /usr/share/pixmaps/splash/ does not exist. Did anybody already face that issue? Creating the missing file (out of any .png) doesn't solve the problem: I don't get the error anymore but the Session setting never open. Regards, -- wwp

Hi! I have bazillions of incoming (rejected) attempts to connect to my SMTP server, and I'm interested in separating out those that seem to come in huge bunches (e.g., the one from yesterday that ran for about 10 hours and sent over 4100 attempts), and graphing them so I can see the spacing and/or distribution in time. I can figure out some simple scripting to turn the maillog entries into times since the epoch, or other formats, if needed, but I have no experience with the various graphing tools availabe, or even what (or where) they are. I'd appreciate pointers-and-or-advice, should any of you have any such things to give. thanks in advance!

CentOS 6 and luksOpen

Upgraded a RAID. Copied everything from backup. And then my manager said I had to encrypt the drive. I've done that, and made the filesystem, but I can't mount it. CentOS 6. I have the entry in /etc/crypttab, and a key in /etc/crypt.pw, and the luks UUID in /etc/fstab. I cannot find the command that tells it to create the device in /dev/mapper from the info in /etc/crypttab. Clues for the poor? Yes, the server will, at some point in the future, go to CentOS 7, but that needs my user to be off for a while, and his jobs run literally for weeks, with loads upwords of 30 on an HBS (honkin' big server).... mark

Updating to CentOS 7.3
by Jerry Geis 20 Jun '17

I have remote systems that need updating. C5 and C6 systems. Is there a "method" that is out there that you can load an ISO of 7.3 on a different partition (other than root) tell the boot up process that the ISO is there, do a clean install, install everything, auto reboot, and now C7 is installed and running. Some configuring will be required after - but that is fine. The OS will be updated. Has anyone worked out something like that ? I'm shocked after all these years Redhat does not have a good upgrade path from version to version. Thanks Jerry
