Issue with MariaDB-server
by Clint Dilks 05 Jan '17

05 Jan '17

Hi, Today I have updated a CentOS 6.8 system that has MariaDB-server installed from http://yum.mariadb.org/5.5/centos6-amd64 and found that I had an SELinux issue. I know this is not really CentOS related, but thought I would check if anyone else on this list uses this repository and has also seen a problem ? Using the information at https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/SELinux I have created a local policy that seems to fix things module marialocal 1.0; require { type mysqld_safe_t; class capability { setuid setgid }; } #============= mysqld_safe_t ============== allow mysqld_safe_t self:capability setgid; allow mysqld_safe_t self:capability setuid; My own research suggests this is reasonably safe, but does anyone see a reason why this shouldn't be used ? It may be useful to know that the particular rpms are MariaDB-server-5.5.54-1.el6.x86_64 and selinux-policy-3.7.19-292.el6_8.2.noarch. Thanks for any feedback, and Happy New Year :)

microcode_ctl-2.1-16 hard crash on Intel E5 2667 v4 CPUs
by Locane 04 Jan '17

04 Jan '17

Hello all! I'm brand new to the mailing list, and I've encountered an issue with the microcode_ctl package version 2.1-16 being installed during the CentOS 7.3 upgrade. It causes my servers to hard stop and they need to be forcibly powered off and back on again with the power button to continue. This RedHat thread https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1398698 details the issue, and version 2.1-18 available from Petr Oros' personal section of RedHat http://people.redhat.com/poros/e6a8cc19d733b1526c2519fbaa1e231d/ is supposed to fix the issue. I haven't had a chance to test it yet. My questions are, who decides what packages are current for CentOS when I "yum upgrade"? When can version 2.1-18 be released to avoid this problem? Thanks in advance!

Amavis on Centosl help
by Tim Smith 04 Jan '17

04 Jan '17

I'm moving from Ubuntu to CentOS 7 Previously, on Ubuntu, installing amavisd would lead to etc/amavis/conf.d that contained: 01-debian 05-domain_id 05-node_id 15-av_scanners 15-content_filter_mode 20-debian_defaults 21-ubuntu_defaults 25-amavis_helpers 30-template_localization 40-policy_banks 50-user However installing amavisd on centos leads to a spaghetti config file (i.e. /etc/amavisd/amavisd.conf and nothing else) For obvious reasons I want to avoid spaghetti config, not only is it poor practice, but also nigh on impossible to maintain properly without breaking stuff. Assuming it is possible, how would I go about changing the Centos "dump" based config into a more sensible one where local site customisations are clearly deliniated ?

selinux & rsyncd: Allowing global read for backup
by Kenneth Porter 04 Jan '17

04 Jan '17

I want to set up rsyncd to expose the whole drive read-only to BackupPC running on another machine. So I need to set selinux to allow this. According to the Fedora wiki I can do so like this: setsebool -P rsync_disable_trans 1 <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SELinux/rsync> But when I run the command on CentOS 7.3 it tells me that this bool is not defined. So what do I do now? (Everything works fine if I set SELinux to permissive.)

CentOS 7 samba server + mac client problems
by Noam Bernstein 03 Jan '17

03 Jan '17

We’ve just started to try to configure a new CentOS 7 disk server, and NFS seems OK so far, but I’m having problems with smb mounts to a Mac OS X client. I have the [homes] section as usual, and some additional shares restricted to specific users, but none seem to work. I know I’m authenticating OK (both from the smbd logs and because when I type the wrong password the Mac’s behavior is different), but in no case can I see any files. The Mac gets as far as creating a mount point and opening a blank Finder window, but it’s completely empty, and when I try to select the server in the Finder sidebar it says “Connection failed” and shows a “Connect As” button, which just initiates another login/mount dialog window. I don’t know what configuration bits are important, so I’m not sure what to include with this message. I do know that I have things set up very similarly to our previous CentOS 6 smb server, and that one seems to work fine. If anyone has gotten such a configuration working, or has any suggestions as to what options in the smb.conf file to focus on, I’d appreciate any clues. thanks, Noam

cron job failures with a perl script containing Astro::Time
by Gregory P. Ennis 03 Jan '17

03 Jan '17

Everyone, I am building a gateway server with a new : CentOS Linux release 7.3.1611 (Core) with 3.10.0-514.2.2.el7.x86_64 kernel. Everything was going find, but I was not able to get a particular cronjob to function properly that contained a perl script with Astro::Time as an include file. Astro::Time was installed with the use of the cpan module downloaded from the Centos repositories. The error message I get in the logs is : Can't locate Astro/Time.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /usr/local/bin/s.bkup.degw3.prl line 12. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/bin/s.bkup.degw3.prl line 12. Line 12 is the line in the perl scrip that contains : use Astro::Time; The script works find from the command line, but will not work at all in a cron job. After I reviewed the previous posts on this mail list about Centos 7 cron job problems I was motivated to change the PATH statements in the /etc/crontab file to include all of the PATH's in my root environment while using a terminal interface. /etc/crontab file : SHELL=/bin/bash #PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin PATH=/usr/lib64/qt- .3/bin:/root/perl5/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bi n:/root/bin QT_PLUGIN_PATH=/usr/lib64/kde4/plugins:/usr/lib/kde4/plugin MAILTO=root The original /etc/crontab file was : SHELL=/bin/bash PATH=/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin MAILTO=root Unfortuantely I am still not able to get this script to work. Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution? Greg Ennis

Noise Cancellation of Server Noise
by H 02 Jan '17

02 Jan '17

Has anyone come across a device that could cancel out the noise from servers, ie. the fan noise? I have a server rack near my office and would like to see if i can decrease the noise level. It would seem to me that the steady drone of the fans could be cancelled out to a large extent.
