[KVM] reporting VM state
by Joe Tseng 06 Jun '12

06 Jun '12

I recently set up a CentOS 6.2 hypervisor and created a Win2k8 virtual machine. In order to save space and time backing up the VM, I want to minimize the amt of unused disk space in the VM. Does KVM have the built-in ability to view the amt of free space left in a VM? Or is this feature I have to create myself to have the hypervisor and VM aware of each other? - Joe If you type "Google" into Google, you can break the Internet. -- Jen Barber

CentOS 5.8 Samba and Windows 7
by John Doe 06 Jun '12

06 Jun '12

Hi, any one has successfully joined a Windows 7 workstation to a samba (3.0.33) domain on CentOS 5.8? I am wondering if I need to install a newer version (from sernet by example) or if I can keep the old one and try harder... Thx, JD

Mysql cluster vs. mysql-libs
by Dennis Jacobfeuerborn 06 Jun '12

06 Jun '12

Hi, it seems even a minimal install of Centos 6.2 now requires mysql-libs as a dependency for postfix and cronie. When I try to install the mysql cluster rpms from mysql.com I get a collision between the files. Since this is the first time I get into contact with mysql cluster I wonder if somebody has an idea how to resolve this or knows alternative packages that don't conflict with mysql-libs? Regards, Dennis

75% - 80% Rebuild Complete
by Gene Poole 06 Jun '12

06 Jun '12

First I want to thank all of you who responded to me both on this list and in the CentOS wiki. Your responses helped greatly! I want to say that if you are running CentOS 5 and you do not have a overriding reason to go to CentOS 6, stay where you are. It was so much easier installing CentOS 6 on a new machine, migrating is next to impossible. Here's where I am today: 1. The base DVD install would not allow me to run the gnome desktop at 1920x1080 resolution with the default nVidia driver, the highest resolution I could obtain was 1024x768. However the text screen worked just fine after I introduced the video=1920x1080 in the grub.conf file. 2. When I installed the nVidia closed source drivers, the gnome desktop ran perfectly in the high resolution mode. The text mode then dropped to 1024x768 even though it retained the video=1920x1080 parameter (could it be those blacklist parameters introduced to disable the noveau drivers?). 3. During the installation I instituted software raid-1 along with LVM. It all worked perfectly until I got to the Boot Loader screen and instead of using the default (/dev/sda) I used what I thought would work in a raid-1 environment IF one of the hard drives went bad. I chose to install the boot loader in /dev/md0. Of course it would not boot. I recovered from this by going through the install and choosing to upgrade a existing installation and it allowed me to place the boot loader in /dev/sda. What that leaves me with is a raid-1 environment that works great as long as /dev/sda remains. How do I fix that??? 4. I still need to add all of those extra repositories (adobe; webmin; rpmfusion; etc). 5. I'm still trying to decide if I want a high resolution text screen (that I would use almost everyday) or a high resolution GUI screen (that I'll only use for certain application installs)??? At my 'real' job, we use RHEL and we've done some things using RHEL 6.2 for POC (Proof Of Concept) projects. With a POC, we install using a standard installation DVD (as opposed to using our RH Satellite Server). All of this to say that there are application installation options that really fit the needs of a server installation, you can choose 'Server' and 'Server GUI', which installs the gnome GUI without selecting a desktop environment.. Some things we run require a GUI to install (Oracle DB; IBM DB2 UDB; IBM WebSphere; etc.). How do I select this type of environment using CentOS 6.2? In other words, I'm running CentOS 6.2 x86_64 Desktop TIA, Gene Poole + It's impossible for everything to be true. +

cluster.conf validating, but cman not starting

Hi all, since the last yum update cman does not start any more with the following entries in /var/log/messages: > Jun 5 20:50:39 pclus1cent6-02 corosync[1852]: [MAIN ] Corosync > Cluster Engine ('1.4.1'): started and ready to provide service. > Jun 5 20:50:39 pclus1cent6-02 corosync[1852]: [MAIN ] Corosync > built-in features: nss dbus rdma snmp > Jun 5 20:50:39 pclus1cent6-02 corosync[1852]: [MAIN ] Successfully > read config from /etc/cluster/cluster.conf > Jun 5 20:50:39 pclus1cent6-02 corosync[1852]: [MAIN ] Successfully > parsed cman config > Jun 5 20:50:39 pclus1cent6-02 corosync[1852]: [MAIN ] parse error > in config: parse error in config: . > Jun 5 20:50:39 pclus1cent6-02 corosync[1852]: [MAIN ] Corosync > Cluster Engine exiting with status 8 at main.c:1680 But the cluster config is okay: > [root@pclus1cent6-02 ~]# ccs_config_validate > Configuration validates Before the last yum update the cluster config was okay, cman started. The config has not been changed. Has anyone run into this problem? Even disabling config validation in /etc/sysconfig/cman does not change this behaviour. I am lost, and my cluster does not start.

There was a small hitch in that the "Twinview" option wasn't available (it was present but grayed out) on the NVidia control panel, but entering nvidia-xconfig --twinview on the command line as root did the trick.

What to use on CentOS 6.2 w/ an Epson Stylus Photo 2200
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 05 Jun '12

05 Jun '12

Epson doesn't seem to have one; I see an rpm at openprinting.org, but that .rpm d/l I started around 11:30 my time, and the d/l slowed, and slowed, and it's been at 21% and "1 hr 17 min to go" for it seems like close to half an hour. I d/l a tar.bz2, but I'm not sure I want to build and install it - my use of this printer is temporary, and I want to be able to uninstall it all. I also can't seem to find what some of the Epson drivers in the std. CentOS CUPS packages handle. Anyone have any pointers? mark

How to rotate PHP error log - since it belongs to apache
by Alexander Farber 05 Jun '12

05 Jun '12

Hello, I'm using CentOS 6.2 with the stock rpm php-5.3.3-3.el6_2.8.x86_64 and the following /etc/php.ini file: error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED display_errors = Off error_log = /var/log/php/php_errors.log and that file is very useful for me because I have many custom PHP-scripts at my site, but that file keeps growing too... :-) So my question is for how to rotate it (esp. since it should be owned by "apache" user) - what do you guys use? Regards Alex

rsyslog.conf - why the "-" in this entry? mail.* -/var/log/maillog
by James B. Byrne 05 Jun '12

In dealing with an unrelated issue I came across this in rsyslog.conf. # The authpriv file has restricted access. authpriv.* /var/log/secure # Log all the mail messages in one place. mail.* -/var/log/maillog # Log cron stuff cron.* /var/log/cron Why is there a "-" before /var/log/maillog? This character is not present before any of the other log files specified in /etc/rsyslog.conf. I have looked in the documents to discover the purpose of the leading "-" character in the mail log file specification but either I missed the reference or it is not there to be found. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

custom kernel build
by Jerry Geis 05 Jun '12

05 Jun '12

Hi all, I have donwloaded 2.6.32.59 from kernel.org, extracted the source, did make menuconfig to select/deselect items then did make bzImage, make modules, make modules_install, make install and rebooted. first message I got was that ext4 was not supported. So I verified that ext4 was selected and it was. So I looked at the size of the /boot/initramfs* items. My custom one is really small compared to the normal one. My question is - what controls the items that get put in there (the initramfs stuff) when you do a "make install" for a custom kernel? Clearly it is not picking up the "normal" centos items that are in the other initramfs files. Thanks, Jerry

gnome / gdm mess
by Philippe Naudin 05 Jun '12

05 Jun '12

Hello, My first attempt to install Gnome is not a bright success. If I boot in runlevel 5, using gdm, I get the login screen, but after login I get sometimes only the root window (no icons, no toolbar, no menu, nothing but keyboard shortcuts), sometimes the icons are here but not the toolbars... If I use startx from runlevel 3, everything is fine. As I don't know Gnome, I have very probably messed something during install (CentOS-6, x86_64, using uptodate netinstall iso, starting from Minimal Desktop). But I have no clue about where to look, or how to debug it. Can someone point me to some useful doc ? P.S. I'm surprised to see gdm and X running on tty1 (in runlevel 5, not 3). Is it correct ? Thanks for your help, -- Philippe Naudin

R packaging question
by Weiner, Michael 05 Jun '12

05 Jun '12

I have been working on packaging (for internal use only) multiple versions of R (eg 2.14.1, 2.14.2, 2.15.0) such that I can install these RPMs and provide the different versions of R (especially 2.14.x and 2.15.x) to the biostatisticians that require them. I have been messing around with the R.spec file but I have been unable to get the package to provide R in the location I would like: /usr/lib64/R-2.14.1/ /usr/lib64/R-2.15.0/ Now I know this can be done but I am just having some difficulty in getting it to work correctly. I have tried multiple variations in the spec playing with adding -%{version} to the paths within the spec file, as well as even using -libdir=/usr/lib64/R-%{version} which works to a point, but basically provides: /usr/lib64/R-2.14.1/R/ /usr/lib64/R-2.15.0/R/ I have attached the spec file I have been modifying and would appreciate any insights into getting this packaging correct.

Dual NVidia cards, dual monitors
by Steven Chall 04 Jun '12

04 Jun '12

I've just installed CentOS 6.2 on an HP xw8600 with two NVidia GeForce 8800 GT video cards in it. I have two Dell monitors than ran configured as a single contiguous desktop when this was a Windows 7 machine. I've only been able to access one of the two monitors under CentOS, although the system demonstrates some awareness of the second GPU/monitor, because the second monitor shows the standard CentOS 6 image while the machine is running. In addition, when it's starting up or shutting down a large wait cursor is displayed in that second monitor, and also shows the message "shutting down..." when that's going on. However, the Display applet in the System | Preferences panel menu shows only the one monitor, and hitting the Detect Monitors button doesn't help. Just to test the obvious, I switched the DVI cables coming out of the two video cards and as you'd expect what shows in the two monitors is also switched. When I do an lspci at the command line I see at the bottom of the listing: 60:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G92 [GeForce 8800 GT] (rev a2) 80:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G92 [GeForce 8800 GT] (rev a2) And the output from xrandr is: Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2560 x 1600, maximum 8192 x 8192 DVI-I-3 connected 2560x1600+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 646mm x 406mm 2560x1600 59.9* 1280x800 59.9 DVI-I-4 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) I've done some considerable googling, and haven't found any discussions that offer a solution for my situation (dual video cards). I did see the following from almost two years ago saying X Windows just doesn't support it: >From http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.freedesktop.libdlo/448, Bernie Thompson says (on October 13, 2010): <begin quote> On Wed, Oct 13, 2010 at 1:44 AM, Christoph Rissner <c.r@...<http://gmane.org/get-address.php?address=c.r%2dxV8MHogwf5Dk7%2b2FdBfRIA%40p…>> wrote: > I think I've read somewhere that even XRandR 1.3 isn't up to multi GPU > environments, so I guess Xinerama is the only option here. Yes, unfortunately that's the fundamental problem. http://superuser.com/questions/139818/ubuntu-10-04-not-detecting-multiple-m… I really only understand the low-level stuff (framebuffer driver), but here's my understanding ... The plumbing isn't there in X to support multiple graphics cards the way Windows has since Win 98. The main low-level features xorg needs are in the area of things like "GPU object" and "shatter" support to allow screens to be split across GPUs/framebuffers. Right now, with RandR hand-config, you can get multiple X screens [can't drag windows between them], one per-GPU, each of which can have multiple monitors connected if that particular GPU reports multiple outputs. With GPU object support, rendering could span GPUs and several GPUs could be merged into one X screen similar to the classical Xinerama setup. <end quote> So is this [still] the case? Is Xinerama a viable alternative? I'd also appreciate some help with the "RandR hand-config" that Bernie mentions.

Hi all, I am trying to configure utf8 in mysql under centos6 to display special characters, like accents. I use this mysql instance to store plain syslog logs. I have configured this under my.cnf: [mysqld] init_connect = 'SET collation_connection = utf8_general_ci' init_connect = 'SET NAMES utf8' character-set-server = utf8 collation-server = utf8_general_ci [client] default-character-set = utf8 but it doesn't seems to work ... Any idea?? Thanks.

Hello, I am trying to setup a node.js based website called 'hummingbird'. It's a monitoring package that you can read about here: http://projects.nuttnet.net/hummingbird/ My question is when I hit the site all I see is a directory listing http://107.21.183.42/hummingbird/ Similar to what would happen if you went to a php site without php being configured in apache with the lines LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so AddHandler php5-script .php I've never actually setup a node.js based site before and I was wondering if there might be something I was missing. I'd appreciate any advice you might have. Thanks Tim -- GPG me!! gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys F186197B

xeyes kills freenx session
by Les Mikesell 02 Jun '12

02 Jun '12

I was trying an assortment of things to get a remote X session working (where I had forgotten to install the xauth package...) and noticed that running xeyes kills my freenx session. This happened whether in the NX/freenx session itself or when run on a remote machine via 'ssh -Y', started from a window in a freenx session. Is that a known problem or do I have something set up wrong? Other GUI programs that open their own windows seem to work, including jconsole which is what I really wanted to run in the first place. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

Install 6.2 via wireless
by david 02 Jun '12

02 Jun '12

Folks I have a HP 8540w workstation, and just for kicks, I wanted to see if I could install Centos 6.2 using only the wireless connection, and the cd/dvd reader. I tried the "net-install" CD image, but it never found the wireless adaptor. How for up the chain must I go to succeed? Net-install (doesn-work) CD containing minimal DVD containing the full image? This effort was more than academic; one of my clients has a box that is connected only through wireless, and we need to do the install. Any advice you may have would be appreciated. David

Dmesg shows link up but ifconfig does not give me an address? service network restart shows OK no errors but again no address. I set the ifcfg-eth0 file to not be NM controlled, onboot yes and rebooted. Same no address. I run 5.8 images all the time and they get the address? Did I forget something? Jerry

Re: [CentOS] Add another one: the same sealert problem
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 01 Jun '12

01 Jun '12

Well, this is getting more and more unpleasant. Turned out my manager and the other admin were also working on this. One of the times they restarted *something*, or maybe my reinstall, took care of the first problem. Now, however, we're seeing a ton of exceptions... and what's struck me is that I'm *not* getting the normal output from sealert. For example, sealert -v -l 42f9d4f6-6327-4030-b927-d17ab9f4f0d6 2012-05-31 16:52:13,387 [plugin.INFO] importing /usr/share/setroubleshoot/plugins/__init__ as plugins SELinux is preventing /bin/chmod from using the fowner capability. I used the -v to try to get more; I'm not seeing the screenful that usually has more useful info. Could something have been screwed up with selinux, in some way? I know that the other admin installed something, but that was via a ruby-on-rails utility, and shouldn't have looked at anything, much less modified anything.... mark

When I issue "service autofs start (or restart)" the automount daemon starts as expected, however, I am not able to access any of the exports nfs directories; but if I shutdown the automount daemon and start it by just issuing "/usr/sbin/automount", I am able to access all of the nfs directories. If the system reboots, the nfs directories become no longer available until I stop the automount daemon and restart by issuing "/usr/sbin/automount". Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. doverbey(a)optonline.net

portmap/NIS mystery
by Boris Epstein 31 May '12

31 May '12

Hello all, I have a server on my private network that is configured as an NIS server and mapped to a "public" IP address on a firewall. All other TCP ports (SSH, iperf, you name it) are visible from the outside - but the portmapper-managed ports (port 111 itself and the YPSERV/YPXFRD ports, etc.) are not visible from the outside - even though they are alive and well on the internal network. So, here's the question: is there anything special as far as portmapper's networking/security setup that is at play here? Thanks. Boris.

question for those who run mail servers
by Bob Hoffman 31 May '12

31 May '12

Not technically a centos question, but a lot of you guys seem to manage some large systems and I could use some clarification on a postfix setting.* *reject_unknown_client_hostname (in postfix < 2.3 reject_unknown_client) When I first used this there were issues with users trying to send mail through the server from hotels, wireless spots, etc. This was solved by pushing up permit sasl_authenticated. I took it out after those issues. I read many online posts from 2008 saying too many false positives. (though none were clear if those were incoming mail or from mail users) Do you use reject_unknown_client_hostname? Other than someone trying to access the server to send mail through it as a user I do not see how this could be a bad setting and am thinking of using it. A person sending out a mail to the server, even if in that badly set up hotel wireless should be using their gmail, yahoo, own server, isp mail servers and should not be directly sending from their iphone....is that correct? or do you ignore the use of this setting still? -thanks for any updates on the use of this setting.

Setting up an iSCSI SAN
by Beth Albertson 31 May '12

31 May '12

Hi, Has anyone ever actually implemented a replicating iSCSI SAN using CentOS? I saw directions here: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Ha-Drbd It looks doable, but I am not the strongest linux person and would like to hear if anyone has tried and if there any caveats. Also, I noticed that these directions are for CentOS 5. Is it pretty much the same for CenOS 6? Lastly, this might sound crazy, but we are mostly a Hyper-V shop. Hyper-V supports CentOS 6.0-6.2 and 5.5-5.7. Could I implement this as a guest in Hyper-V or am I just asking for trouble?

postfix and upstart
by James B. Byrne 31 May '12

31 May '12

Postfix on CentOS-6.2 evidently does not use upstart style configurations. The author evidently has no plans on altering Postfix's structure to accommodate upstart any time soon, if ever (http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/postfix-users/message/274670) Thus Postfix starts and stops using a sysvinit style script. Nonetheless, I have an upstart configuration that I wish to be dependent upon Postfix start and stop events. Is anyone here aware of some straight forward way of accomplishing this? I am considering placing initctl emit statements into the sPostfix script. Before I go down that rabbit hole I would like to know if there is any other way provided by CentOS handling startup and shutdown dependencies between the two forms of scripts. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

udev and mobile broadband
by Jure Pečar 31 May '12

31 May '12

Hello, I have a strong suspicion that something is not working right on my el6 laptop. I have a usb 3g dongle that works fine on windows and ubuntu. It's one of those ZTE dual-personality devices (usb id 19d2:2000). When it's plugged in, it appears as usb storge device, then needs to be ejected, then it appears as usb modem with few serial ports. This is handled properly by udev on ubuntu, however when I plug the thing into el6, nothing happens. I don't even get an usb storage device: kernel: usb 2-1.2: New USB device found, idVendor=19d2, idProduct=2000 kernel: usb 2-1.2: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=4 kernel: usb 2-1.2: Product: ZTE WCDMA Technologies MSM kernel: usb 2-1.2: Manufacturer: ZTE,Incorporated kernel: usb 2-1.2: SerialNumber: P680A1ZTED010000 kernel: usb 2-1.2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice kernel: scsi34 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices usb_modeswitch: switching 19d2:2000 (ZTE,Incorporated: ZTE WCDMA Technologies MSM) And it just sits there. What I need to do to make it appear as usb-storage is run some virtualbox vm, attach this device to it, detach it and then it pops up on gnome desktop with these messages: kernel: usb 2-1.2: reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 22 kernel: scsi35 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices kernel: scsi 35:0:0:0: CD-ROM ZTE USB SCSI CD-ROM 2.31 PQ: 0 ANSI: 2 kernel: sr1: scsi-1 drive kernel: sr 35:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 5 Only now I have a handle that I can umount (/dev/sr1), either via cli or via gui. Then the magic I seek happens: kernel: usb 2-1.2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 23 kernel: usb 2-1.2: New USB device found, idVendor=19d2, idProduct=0016 kernel: usb 2-1.2: New USB device strings: Mfr=3, Product=2, SerialNumber=4 kernel: usb 2-1.2: Product: ZTE WCDMA Technologies MSM kernel: usb 2-1.2: Manufacturer: ZTE,Incorporated kernel: usb 2-1.2: SerialNumber: P680A1ZTED010000 kernel: usb 2-1.2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice kernel: scsi36 : SCSI emulation for USB Mass Storage devices kernel: usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial kernel: USB Serial support registered for generic kernel: usbcore: registered new interface driver usbserial_generic kernel: usbserial: USB Serial Driver core kernel: USB Serial support registered for GSM modem (1-port) kernel: option 2-1.2:1.0: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected kernel: usb 2-1.2: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB0 kernel: option 2-1.2:1.1: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected kernel: usb 2-1.2: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB1 kernel: option 2-1.2:1.2: GSM modem (1-port) converter detected kernel: usb 2-1.2: GSM modem (1-port) converter now attached to ttyUSB2 kernel: usbcore: registered new interface driver option kernel: option: v0.7.2:USB Driver for GSM modems logger: usb_modeswitch: adding device ID 19d2/16/0: to driver "option" modem-manager: (ttyUSB1) opening serial device... modem-manager: (ttyUSB2) opening serial device... modem-manager: (ttyUSB0) opening serial device... etc. And the thing works. I wonder why ubuntu does this automatically and why el6 fails to do so. I've compared some udev files like 77-mm-zte-port-types.rules and 61-mobile-action.rules and they are esentially the same. So the difference must be somewhere else. Does anyone know off hand it or do I have to dig in to find it? -- Jure Pečar http://jure.pecar.org http://f5j.eu

Centos 6.2 ATI Rage XL on board graphics seg faults when setting up the screen saver
by Seth Bardash 31 May '12

31 May '12

I have installed Centos 6.2 on: 1) Tyan S2892 with ATI on board Rage XL graphics ( Centos x86_64 version), 8GB memory, 3ware Raid array 2) Supermicro Dual Xeon Single core, old machine, with ATI onboard Rage XL graphics (Centos i386 version), 12GB memory, 3ware Raid array Both machines exhibit the same error. While trying to select a screen saver (clock or blank screen) the application seg faults. Other machines that we have installed 6.2 on with either a newer graphics chip set on board or a separate graphics card seem to work fine. Anyone with a work around or fix for this? Has anyone reported this upstream as a bug?

Just Stuck
by Gene Poole 31 May '12

31 May '12

OK, I did the deal and I am in the process of upgrading/migrating from CentOS 5.8 x86_64 to CentOS 6.2 x86_64. But, I'm stuck with a gnome GUI that only sees 1024x768. Under CentOS 5.8 it saw 1920x1080 (without much work from me). The command I was used to , system-config-display, is gone and I've read that xrandr is the replacement. I can't find a usage document on this command. The basic description of the hardware involved is: nVidia GT 7300 video card Viewsonic 24" monitor I don't have the exact specs for this hardware, but I can post it later if needed. I've run the following command: xrandr -q And sometimes it returns a list of modes that range from 5 entries to 15 entries. Any help will be appreciated! TIA, Gene Poole + It's impossible for everything to be true. +

iSCSI offload with Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5709.
by Svavar Örn Eysteinsson 31 May '12

31 May '12

Hello all. We recently purchased HP Proliant DL380 G7 server and also a HP Lefthand P4500 G2 24TB iSCSI box. The server itself has Quad Ethernet based on the BCM5709 Chipset from Broadcom (NetXtreme II). My main question is about iSCSI offload mechanism, as iSCSI itself is pretty new to me but I have gotten a good hold on it tho. I have managed to setup and configured our Lefthand box into our iSCSI Network. iSCSI network : 192.168.200.0/24 I have also managed to setup and configure a fully operational Software based iSCSI traffic from the server to the Target without problems. Everything just works fine. Until I thought about iSCSI offload functionality offered by the Network Adapter in the server. As for the Software based iSCSI connection I have bonded(NIC Teamed) two NIC's on the server into a ALB(Adaptive Load Balancing) configuration. Those are eth2,eth3 interfaces configured as bond1 with IP address of : 192.168.200.20 (iSCSI network). My decision to team up eth2 and eth3 into ALB was clearly based on the HP Lefthand configuration guidelines. They state that the Lefthand box itself should be configured into ALB. So I configured the server also. But, am I misunderstanding the iSCSI thing about offload and or network configurations ? If I'm going to use offload mechanisms do I need to get rid of the bonding setup ? I'm asking because the server offers 4 interfaces, and also 4 iscsi offload interfaces :S These are the messages from dmesg : bnx2: Broadcom NetXtreme II Gigabit Ethernet Driver bnx2 v2.1.12b (Oct 14, 2011) bnx2 0000:03:00.0: eth0: Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5709 1000Base-T (C0) PCI Express found at mem f4000000, IRQ 16, node addr e4:11:5b:b6:92:e0 bnx2 0000:03:00.1: eth1: Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5709 1000Base-T (C0) PCI Express found at mem f2000000, IRQ 17, node addr e4:11:5b:b6:92:e2 bnx2 0000:04:00.0: eth2: Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5709 1000Base-T (C0) PCI Express found at mem f8000000, IRQ 18, node addr e4:11:5b:b6:92:e4 bnx2 0000:04:00.1: eth3: Broadcom NetXtreme II BCM5709 1000Base-T (C0) PCI Express found at mem f6000000, IRQ 19, node addr e4:11:5b:b6:92:e6 After I launch up iscsi, and iscsid these messages appear : iscsi: registered transport (tcp) iscsi: registered transport (iser) Chelsio T3 iSCSI Driver cxgb3i v2.0.0 (Jun. 2010) iscsi: registered transport (cxgb3i) Chelsio T4 iSCSI Driver cxgb4i v0.9.1 (Aug. 2010) iscsi: registered transport (cxgb4i) cnic: Broadcom NetXtreme II CNIC Driver cnic v2.5.7g (September 23, 2011) bnx2 0000:03:00.0: eth0: Added CNIC device bnx2 0000:03:00.1: eth1: Added CNIC device bnx2 0000:04:00.0: eth2: Added CNIC device bnx2 0000:04:00.1: eth3: Added CNIC device Broadcom NetXtreme II iSCSI Driver bnx2i v2.7.0.4i (Nov 01, 2011) iscsi: registered transport (bnx2i) scsi123 : Broadcom Offload iSCSI Initiator bnx2i [04:00.01]: ISCSI_INIT passed scsi124 : Broadcom Offload iSCSI Initiator bnx2i [04:00.00]: ISCSI_INIT passed scsi125 : Broadcom Offload iSCSI Initiator scsi126 : Broadcom Offload iSCSI Initiator bnx2i [03:00.00]: ISCSI_INIT passed iscsiadm -m iface -P1 shows me these interfaces Iface: default Iface: iser Iface: bnx2i.00:00:00:00:00:00 Iface: bnx2i.e4:11:5b:b6:92:e1 Iface: bnx2i.e4:11:5b:b6:92:e5 Iface: bnx2i.e4:11:5b:b6:92:e7 Am I correct that you can't bind more then one interface to a iscsi target ? As the physical interfaces (eth2, eth3) are bonded together how would I use those virtual bnx2i (offload) interfaces as bond ? Is that what they call multipath ? Do I need multipath in this setup? One server, one switch, one iSCSI target box. Any help, information and guidelines would be much appreciated about this scenario. I'm really lost about this one, and would clearly like my server to operate at the top... :) The server is running up_to_date Centos 6.2 x_64 and with the newest Broadcom drivers.

snmpd not working well with selinux?
by John Horne 31 May '12

31 May '12

Hello, I am trying to use SNMP on a CentOS 6.2 server, and am using the 'pass_persist' configuration command: pass_persist .1.3.6.1.4.1.141.1 /usr/local/sbin/snmp-iostat I have set the file context of 'snmpd_exec_t' on the snmp-iostat program. If I disable SELinux, then it all works fine (that is, I can then snmpget/snmpwalk for OIDs in the configured pass_persist OID, and values are returned). If I enable SELinux and start the snmpd daemon, as root, from the command line, then again it all works fine. However, if I enable SELinux, and startup the SNMP daemon using the 'service' command, as occurs at system boot, then I get no values returned. I get, for example: snmpwalk -v 2c -c public localhost enterprises.141.1.1.10 SNMPv2-SMI::enterprises.141.1.1.10 = No Such Instance currently exists at this OID (Yes I am using the enterprise number 141 which doesn't belong to us. I have applied for a site enterprise number, but heard nothing yet.) I really don't want to disable SELinux completely, but 'getsebool' shows no variables relating to SNMP so I am a bit stuck as to how I can get this to work. I also don't understand why it works with SELinux enabled when started from the command line, but not when started by the 'service' command. That seems very odd. Anyone any ideas about this? Thanks, John. -- John Horne Tel: +44 (0)1752 587287 Plymouth University, UK Fax: +44 (0)1752 587001

Probably. Lots of other things broke in same-major-rev updates until I gave up at FC6. Whether any particular machine runs or not has never been a priority for fedora. Maybe your hardware matches one of the developers. On the other hand, I had 2 4-year uptime runs with a pre-fedora RH 7.3. (had to move it once). For about 6 of those years it was very busy. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

oVirt on CentOS 6
by John Blaut 30 May '12

30 May '12

Hi Are there any future plans for CentOS to build and directly provide oVirt packages compatible with CentOS 6? If not, has anyone tried the packages available at http://www.dreyou.org/ovirt/ and would these be considered fit for a CentOS-based oVirt production setup? I've heard many great things about oVirt. However I would prefer to use a CentOS-based solution in a production environment rather than Fedora. Thanks in advance.

LVM superblock version

Is there an lvm command to print out any kind of version information for the LVM superblock, similar to what "mdmadmin -E" does for raid. How can I tell whether a mountable device with LVMs on it can be safely moved between CentOS 5 and CentOS 6 and/or potentially other Linux distributions? I know that that CentOS 6 supports 'lvconvert -merge'. Is this implementation purely in the lvm software or does it require a different superblock? Can I take an LVM setup created under CentOS 6 and read it on a CentOS 5 system? Thanks, Nataraj

KVM and vnc together
by Jerry Geis 29 May '12

29 May '12

Ran into something weird. I have my machine CentOS 6.2 running KVM guest of Windows 7. This works fine while I'm in the office... Then when I remote in using VNC to my machine - the VNC always works fine. However, when I try to access the KVM session its like the mouse has lost its brain. Anyone ran into this? I startup with this command: qemu-system-x86_64 -net nic,model=rtl8139 -net user -hda win7.img -usb -m 4192 -vga std & Thanks, Jerry

anyone care to helop with a fail2ban problem on Centos 5.8?
by Dave Stevens 29 May '12

29 May '12

I've got an up-to-date Centos 5.8 and can't seem to get fail2ban to get rid of troublesome sshd login attempts. /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf has these sections: [ssh] enabled = true port = ssh filter = sshd logpath = /var/log/auth.log maxretry = 6 # Generic filter for pam. Has to be used with action which bans all ports # such as iptables-allports, shorewall [pam-generic] enabled = false # pam-generic filter can be customized to monitor specific subset of 'tty's filter = pam-generic # port actually must be irrelevant but lets leave it all for some possible uses port = all banaction = iptables-allports port = anyport logpath = /var/log/auth.log maxretry = 6 and an excerpt from a logwatch run just now is: --------------------- pam_unix Begin ------------------------ sshd: Authentication Failures: unknown (190.145.98.179): 2460 Time(s) root (58.51.95.75): 285 Time(s) unknown (122.70.128.5): 125 Time(s) postgres (190.145.98.179): 64 Time(s) mail (190.145.98.179): 40 Time(s) mysql (190.145.98.179): 40 Time(s) root (190.145.98.179): 36 Time(s) unknown (58.51.95.75): 26 Time(s) ftp (190.145.98.179): 17 Time(s) root (122.70.128.5): 15 Time(s) root (221.226.215.117): 13 Time(s) root (cloud-128-117.diagcomputing.org) 13 Time(s) adm (190.145.98.179): 12 Time(s) so advice? redirection? rtfm?

How do downgrade mozilla ?
by Timothy Madden 29 May '12

29 May '12

Hello Sorry to say this to everyone, but since I installed CentOS 6 a month ago I found that both Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Thunderbird crash big time (meaning every day and even more than once a day) with a large INBOX or newsgroup, or with many tabs open in the Firefox windows. I also keep my work computer running over night usually, maybe this is also a factor. Knode does not do a better job than Thunderbird with the newsgroups, either, it still crashes on large ones. Konqueror too consumes many gigabytes and becomes unresponsive if I have many tabs open and keep it running over night. I got pan newsreader though, and it is very nice with a 126000-articles a newsgroup (like on CentOS.general :)! And that reporting tool that pops up every time says it can not upload the crash report (because it does not have some valid URL or something)... Is there a nice way to downgrade Mozilla Firefox to say version 4 or 5 please ? And something similar for Thunderbird ? Thank you, Timothy Madden

openldap mmr + heartbeat hot standby
by Wessel van der Aart 29 May '12

29 May '12

Hi List, I've setup 2 openldap servers in n-way multimaster replication mode in a test environment, both run centos 6.2, this works well but now i'm trying to make these 2 servers failover using heartbeat. i've got no experience with heartbeat (or setting up clusters in general) however from what i understand heartbeat starts/stops the service if the server has the virtual IP assigned or not. this would be fine for httpd , but since replication doesn't work when slapd is stopped i was wondering if anyone knows if there is a way to setup heartbeat with a hot standby? so that the service keeps running but the ip does gets reassigned when one goes down. Thanks, Wessel

The evidence I have indicates that when the host kvm system is powered off and restarted then the guests do not restart. This behaviour is at variance with a controlled shutdown wherein active guests are (usually) restarted when the host reboots. I infer from this observation that system scripts already handle this more or less correctly. I suppose that I could just create an init script that read a custom status file and restated every domain that it found therein using virsh. However, if such a beast already exists then I would rather not have to reinvent the wheel. Is anyone aware of such a script or where one might be found? I am not havig much luck with Google this morning. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

PCI/DSS compliance on CentOS
by Arun Khan 28 May '12

28 May '12

I have a client project to implement PCI/DSS compliance. The PCI/DSS auditor has stipulated that the web server, application middleware (tomcat), the db server have to be on different systems. In addition the auditor has also stipulated that there be a NTP server, a "patch" server, The Host OS on all of the above nodes will be CentOS 6.2. Below is a list of things that would be necessary. 1. Digital Certificates for each host on the PCI/DSS segment 2. SELinux on each Linux host in the PCI/DSS network segment 3. Tripwire/AIDE on each Linux host in the PCI/DSS segment 4. OS hardening scripts (e.g. Bastille Linux) 5. Firewall 6. IDS (Snort) 6. Central “syslog” server However, beyond this I would appreciate any comments/feedback / suggestion if you or your organization has undergone a PCI/DSS audit and what are the gotchas that you encountered, especially with respect to CentOS/ open source stack. I came across this which kind of brings out issues between the implementer and the PCI/DSS auditor. <http://webmasters.stackexchange.com/questions/15098/pci-dss-compliance-for-…> Thanks very much. -- Arun Khan

However, an semodule -l does not reveal any local policies installed on this server, so whatever is wrong it does not seem likely that the cause was a local modification. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

I have no idea. Perhaps I misunderstood what the ntpd man page referred to as a panic. If it is not ntpd then I still need to discover some way of ensuring that all the KVM guests that were active at the time of a power failure automatically come back on line when the KVM host system starts up. I cannot find any reference to how this is done. Are there any recommended solutions? These systems are on UPS already but the power failure duration exceeded the endurance of the the UPS. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

NTP and virtual guests
by James B. Byrne 28 May '12

28 May '12

We encountered a problem with respect to KVM virtual host restore and NTP. Specifically, our VM test host was shutdown by an extended power outage and when power returned all of the restored guests were immediately shutdown by ntp because the time differential between the restored systems and that of the ntpd sync servers exceeded the panic threshold. This is not an acceptable situation so in the absence of something more elegant we are contemplating shutting down ntpd on virtual hosts and scheduling regular ntpd -q from cron instead. Is there an alternative to this? If not then what would be a recommended scheduling interval? -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

Where did it find it and why is that number not the same as the other stuff, notably the kernel, since it appears to be a kernel version number?

Users on Machine A with rights to log into and run jobs on Machine B using ssh want to be able to view and cancel print jobs on Machine B.

Installing CIFS on CentOS4
by Jeff Sadino 25 May '12

25 May '12

Hello, I have a CentOS4 install and I am trying to mount a Windows Server 2008 folder. When I use this command: mount -t cifs //10.1.1.17/Org/MR\ Ops/ test, it only mounts the Org folder. When I try the same thing on a newer computer (Fedora 15), it mounts all the way to MR Ops. So I am pretty sure that my cifs file needs to be updated, but I am having a really hard time doing this. I updated to the newest cif available for CentOS 4.9, but that still is not new enough. Can anyone tell me how to install the newer cifs on my CentOS 4? Thank you, Jeff Sadino

200 Stream not found errors in flash player and firefox
by Rob Kampen 24 May '12

24 May '12

Hi List, I have been getting the above errors for the last few months and extensive google foo has been less than conclusive - but indicates that the requesting flash player is somehow putting the wrong url content into the request. After I recently did a yum update on my wife's laptop she too started getting these errors. She has an old sony laptop running 5.8 and other than this error on various streaming tv links it is working just fine. Needless to say, she is less than thrilled with my IT skills at this point as she can no longer watch her favourite TV programs. So I decided to try and track down the problem on my own machine (CentOS 6.2) where yumex allows you to see and load older versions of a package. I started with a downgrade (and then a 2nd one .... and then the 5th one) of libflashplayer.so - fortunately rpmforge has older versions. Going right back to a 10.x version did not fix the problem. Thus I guess it is a firefox / xulrunner problem, however I am not happy to go back too many versions here as the exploit potential is much higher. Then I tried konqueror with flash enabled and guess what - no problems with any of the links that fail under firefox / libflashplayer. So my question to the list members - does anyone else have this problem with flash under firefox?? What do I do to fix it? TIA Rob

pvcreate limitations on big disks?
by Alan McKay 24 May '12

24 May '12

OK folks, I'm back at it again. Instead of taking my J4400 ( 24 x 1T disks) and making a big RAID60 out of it which Linux cannot make a filesystem on, I'm created 4 x RAID6 which each are 3.64T I then do : sfdisk /dev/sd{b,c,d,e} <<EOF ,,8e EOF to make a big LVM partition on each one. But then when I do : pvcreate /dev/sd{b,c,d,e}1 and then pvdisplay It shows each one as only half its actual size. But if I take the last one and wipe the partition table and just do pvcreate on the entire disk, it works pvcreate /dev/sde And then if I take the results from that and use the size to force a size on another PV I get it right too pvcreate /dev/sdd1 --setphysicalvolumesize=3.64T I'd use the entire disk expect that this seems dangerous to me because you do "sfdisk -l" and the disk appears to have no partition table which might entice someone to thing it is unused. And I'm not sure whether it is safe to use setphysicalvolumesize. Anyone know for sure? What are my alternatives?

SMB shares and LDAP
by aurfalien 23 May '12

23 May '12

Hi, I have a scenario were I only have OpenLDAP running for authing my Linux and Windows client. Windows is using the pGina LDAP client to talk to my OpenLDAP server, no problems, working like a charm. However I need to setup a simple Samba file server-only. None of my Unix boxes have a compete /etc/passwd file as every one auths against OpenLDAP. Is there some kind of passwd backend option in my smb.conf that allows it to query my OpenLDAP server? Thanks in advance, - aurf

Reset adapter
by sebastian 23 May '12

23 May '12

Hi, one of our rented root-server has a problem with the network-adapter.The network is interrupted from time to time and i can not longer connect to our server. We can only reboote (remote) the server and restart the network. I think it was an network-driver-problem from an "Intel Corporation 82574L Gigabit Network" --- e1000e But now i have install a new kernel-driver and i have the same problem again. Here an extract of the logs: <---//first log with old driver//--- May 22 16:52:40 mega2 kernel: e1000e: Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Driver - 1.4.4-k May 22 16:52:40 mega2 kernel: e1000e: Copyright(c) 1999 - 2011 Intel Corporation.

Centos 6 - vnc - authentication is required to set the network proxy used for downloading packages
by Frank Cox 23 May '12

23 May '12

A window keeps popping up on my remote desktop stating "authentication is required to set the network proxy used for downloading packages. An application is attempting to perform an action that requires privileges. Authentication as the super user is required to perform this action" and asking for the root password. If I hit cancel it comes back several minutes later. I've found several references to this issue doing various google searches, but nothing that clearly states a solution. How can I get rid of this? -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com www.creekfm.com - FIFTY THOUSAND WATTS of POW WOW POWER!

Secure VNC access from iPad
by david 23 May '12

23 May '12

Dear Gurus If any of you have been successful in using an iPad as a VNC client with SSH tunnelling, I'd love to know how it's done. I have tried using the iSSH application, but without success. I know that the server is accessible from a Windows client (using TigerVNC), via an SSH tunnel, so the server is properly configured. If you have a working example, please let me know what magic sauce you used. Thanks David

Centos 6 - tigervnc - numbers on keypad
by Frank Cox 23 May '12

23 May '12

I have a ncurses-based program that runs on a vnc desktop on a remote computer. On Centos 5 you could enter numbers into the program using the numeric keypad. I just installed a new machine running Centos 6 to do this same job and now numbers can only be entered using the numbers across the top of the keyboard. The program still recognizes the keys on the keypad when numlock is not set (so you get home, pgup, left and right cursor, etc.) but I get nothing when I set the numlock key. Having said that, I do see activity when I set numlock and run the xev program, so the keypresses are obviously getting through. How can I make this thing accept numbers from the numeric keypad on Centos 6? Do I have to re-write the ncurses program to recognize some different keycodes? -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com www.creekfm.com - FIFTY THOUSAND WATTS of POW WOW POWER!

Centos 6 - Networking: Some Queries
by Sanjay Arora 23 May '12

23 May '12

Hello all I am setting up a Centos 6 machine with one network card & one onboard network port. Both are recognized & work. Onboard Network port is unused yet, but is required for dedicated access to LTSP LAN, which would allow older PIII machines to boot from this system. I have installed LTSP but again Networking seems to be the problem area, as the clients won't boot from this machine. Have muddled & tinkered with Networking a bit...deleted & reconfigured the ifcfg files again & again but as I don't understand NetworkManager and Google is not helping get relevant results, so I have brought the system to minimum working condition, where one network card is providing LAN access on which Internet Router is configured. And now I am posting my system's condition below as output of various commands. My network-scripts directory: [root@swyam network-scripts]# ls ifcfg-Internet_GW ifup-eth ifcfg-lo ifup-ippp ifdown ifup-ipv6 ifdown-bnep ifup-isdn ifdown-eth ifup-plip ifdown-ippp ifup-plusb ifdown-ipv6 ifup-post ifdown-isdn ifup-ppp ifdown-post ifup-routes ifdown-ppp ifup-sit ifdown-routes ifup-tunnel ifdown-sit ifup-wireless ifdown-tunnel init.ipv6-global ifup net.hotplug ifup-aliases network-functions ifup-bnep network-functions-ipv6 Ifconfig output: [root@swyam network-scripts]# ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr E0:69:95:77:A7:F3 UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 b) TX bytes:0 (0.0 b) Interrupt:20 Memory:fe600000-fe620000 eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:60:52:0C:0B:DE inet addr:192.168.1.3 Bcast:192.168.1.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:2245698 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:1785431 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:3105161344 (2.8 GiB) TX bytes:148843277 (141.9 MiB) Interrupt:16 Base address:0x2000 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:525 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:525 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:53459 (52.2 KiB) TX bytes:53459 (52.2 KiB) [root@swyam network-scripts]# cat ifcfg-Internet_GW TYPE=Ethernet BOOTPROTO=none IPADDR=192.168.1.3 PREFIX=24 GATEWAY=192.168.1.1 DNS1=218.248.245.1 DNS2=8.8.8.8 DOMAIN="218.248.245.1 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4" DEFROUTE=yes IPV4_FAILURE_FATAL=yes IPV6INIT=no NAME="Internet GW" UUID=d4535709-a05b-459d-a4fd-f08ec9460bcc ONBOOT=yes DNS3=8.8.4.4 Network Manager is running and the above card "Internet_GW" was configured through the NetworkManager applet. Internet works. One can disconnect Internet through the NetworkManager applet. Yet the applet's Edit Connection --> Wired --> Last Used status shows "Never". Now let's come to what I want to do with this machine....The Onboard network port for LTSP services....Network card on network 192.168.1.0/24(192.168.1.1 is the ISP ADSL router) to provide LAN access & Internet access. Now what I want to do is to create a third network for my virtual machines (KVM) say 172.16.1.1/24. Now create some sort of dummy bridge and get these machines talking to the Internet....said bridge to either forward the packets through the normal Internet path or somehow use NAT to do it. I think this should be doable but haven't come across any example or any tutorial for this. Now comes why I want a separate network....why not use 192.168.1.0/24...problem is...I don't want to disable Network Manager by putting Managed=NO in my ifcfg file. As with Network Manager enabled, I can use USB devices whenever my ISP goes down....and I'm afraid it happens more frequently than I care to bear. I frankly also don't understand how Network Manager works....in a broad manner....literature I found was either too technical or too old or was focussed on a particular problem. I would like to know a network/bridge/device topology that can solve my issue....three networks...lan. ltsp, virtual machines, all having access to each other & the net, while keeping the option of using networkmanager or any other tool (I'm open) to plugin any other wireless internet access device. I am not very advanced admin, but can follow instructions. Kindly help. With regards & thanks. Sanjay.

Error in Squirrelmail
by Edson - PMSS 22 May '12

22 May '12

Yesterday I upgrade my CentOS e-mail server and I changed the version of Squirrelmail and PHP. Now, after the changes, I can't send e-mail by squirrelmail. I can send only by e-mail clients like Thunderbird and Outlook in the network. I did a backup of the old configuration and data files and I replaced it on the new configuration, but nothing happen. I need someone's help. Thank you. Edson

Hello list I use sendmail-8.14.4-8.el6.x86_64 and I wonder how to restrict the number of emails sendmail sent over an hour. Is the define(`confMAX_QUEUE_RUN_SIZE', `200') command what I'm looking for? Thank you in advance. Nikos

rpm user and groups
by Markus Falb 22 May '12

22 May '12

Hi! This is a rpm question. For example, mysql-server is adding mysql user with uid 27 Is this something I can ask the rpm db? It seems not, because something like the following seems to give me no useful information regarding users or uids $ rpm -qa --provides|grep mysql I would like to ask: what package would install uid XXX. How? Not possible? -- Kind Regards, Markus Falb

st1000spex ethernet card and centos 6.2
by Gregory P. Ennis 21 May '12

21 May '12

Dear List, I am still having difficulty installing a second ethernet card in a new CentOS 6.2 install. Tom Bishop was kind enough to give me an excellent link to figure out how to change the device names the way I need to have them. It looks to me that CentOS is recognizing the st1000spex card from StarTech but I am unable to get data to go in or out of it. The StarTech manual for this card does not include linux as being supported, but several vendors do have their blurbs with linux support caveats. Unfortunately, the StarTech site appears down today, and I have not been able to see if they have documentation as to whether there is a need for special linux drivers. Do any of you have a StarTech st1000spex, or any suggestions? Thanks, Greg Ennis
