ext3 bug?

Hi, on one of my Systems I'm seeing a strange phenomenon. When I do a "ls /var/log/named/" that command just freezes. An strace shows that ls is endlessly doing this: ... getdents(3, /* 66 entries */, 32768) = 3888 getdents(3, /* 85 entries */, 32768) = 5000 getdents(3, /* 70 entries */, 32768) = 4128 getdents(3, /* 80 entries */, 32768) = 4696 mremap(0x2b8b2b181000, 311296, 618496, MREMAP_MAYMOVE) = 0x2b8b2b181000 getdents(3, /* 82 entries */, 32768) = 4736 getdents(3, /* 50 entries */, 32768) = 2920 getdents(3, /* 53 entries */, 32768) = 3088 getdents(3, /* 82 entries */, 32768) = 4800 getdents(3, /* 73 entries */, 32768) = 4248 getdents(3, /* 54 entries */, 32768) = 3240 getdents(3, /* 51 entries */, 32768) = 2944 getdents(3, /* 67 entries */, 32768) = 3928 getdents(3, /* 63 entries */, 32768) = 3712 getdents(3, /* 48 entries */, 32768) = 2816 getdents(3, /* 59 entries */, 32768) = 3448 getdents(3, /* 66 entries */, 32768) = 3792 getdents(3, /* 60 entries */, 32768) = 3440 getdents(3, /* 67 entries */, 32768) = 3912 getdents(3, /* 83 entries */, 32768) = 4808 getdents(3, /* 90 entries */, 32768) = 5256 getdents(3, /* 50 entries */, 32768) = 2888 getdents(3, /* 80 entries */, 32768) = 4600 getdents(3, /* 70 entries */, 32768) = 4088 getdents(3, /* 54 entries */, 32768) = 3168 getdents(3, /* 63 entries */, 32768) = 3760 getdents(3, /* 49 entries */, 32768) = 2864 getdents(3, /* 67 entries */, 32768) = 3960 ... The problem is that this directory only really contains two relatively small log files. I cannot remove the directory because rm gets stuck with the same problem. The only way is to move the directory elsewhere and create a new one though apparently after a while the same thing happens. So I decided to take the system offline and do a fsck. The check went through without a single error so apparently the filesystem is fine. Does anyone have an idea what could be going on here? Regards, Dennis

libguestfs-winsupport package for CentOS-6
by James B. Byrne 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

Is this available for CentOS and if so then where is this package located? Yum cannot find it in the configured repositories and I can seemingly only locate the Scientific Linux version through Google. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

How can rpm "%{SUMMARY}" not be consistent?
by Denniston, Todd A CIV NAVSURFWARCENDIV Crane 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

I have been seeing something for quite some time which has confused me considerably for over a year, perhaps one of you can help me understand. Assumed: rpm queries are against _a_ database. Assumed: database queries against the same database, without changes to the data in the database, will return the same data. Confusion: then why are some of the summaries reported by rpm different? Each day I (cron.daily) run the following command rpm -qa \ --qf '"%{VENDOR}","%{NAME}","%{VERSION}","%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}","%{ARCH}","% {SUMMARY}"\n' \ | sort -t\" -k3 > ${OUTFILE} Stuff the resulting ${OUTFILE} in an rcs file. And some days the rcs file will show deltas such as the following (which was pulled from a rather recent set of flipflops): --- mach.csv 2011/11/15 10:50:04 +++ mach.csv 2011/11/15 09:22:53 -"CentOS","bash","3.2","3.2-32.el5","i386","The GNU Bourne Again shell (bash) version 3.1." +"CentOS","bash","3.2","3.2-32.el5","i386","The GNU Bourne Again shell (bash) version 3.2" -"CentOS","compat-db","4.2.52","4.2.52-5.1","i386","The Berkeley DB database library for CentOS 2.1 compatibility." +"CentOS","compat-db","4.2.52","4.2.52-5.1","i386","The Berkeley DB database library for Red Hat Linux 7.x compatibility." -"CentOS","firefox","3.6.24","3.6.24-3.el5.centos","i386","Mozilla Firefox Web browser." +"CentOS","firefox","3.6.24","3.6.24-3.el5.centos","i386","Mozilla Firefox Web browser" -"Adobe Systems Inc.","flash-plugin","11.1.102.55","11.1.102.55-release","i386","Adobe Flash Player 7.0" +"Adobe Systems Inc.","flash-plugin","11.1.102.55","11.1.102.55-release","i386","Adobe Flash Player 11.1" -"CentOS","gdb","7.0.1","7.0.1-37.el5_7.1","i386","A GNU source-level debugger for C, C++, Java and other languages." +"CentOS","gdb","7.0.1","7.0.1-37.el5_7.1","i386","A GNU source-level debugger for C, C++, Java and other languages" -"CentOS","gettext","0.17","0.17-1.el5","i386","GNU libraries and utilities for producing multi-lingual messages." +"CentOS","gettext","0.17","0.17-1.el5","i386","GNU libraries and utilities for producing multi-lingual messages" -"CentOS","htmlview","4.0.0","4.0.0-2.el5","noarch","Tools for launching Preferred Applications" +"CentOS","htmlview","4.0.0","4.0.0-2.el5","noarch","Launcher of Preferred Web Browser" rpm -q --last compat-db htmlview compat-db-4.2.52-5.1 Tue 17 Mar 2009 02:32:59 PM EDT htmlview-4.0.0-2.el5 Tue 17 Mar 2009 02:21:59 PM EDT i.e. these have been there, at this version, since machine install. poking around in /var/lib/rpm/, with strings and grep, the only file I find "Adobe Flash Player " in is Packages and I only find the "Adobe Flash Player 11.1" variant of the string.

Note: rpm does seem to be fairly consistent in its inconsistency, the above applications are a small sampling of a larger *set* (out of ~180 packages that show this) that seems to keep flip flopping from one SUMMARY to the other, *usually* in the day or two post a yum update (not sure if reboots also affect it). The summaries always bounce between the same text, i.e., htmlview has always used either "Launcher of Preferred Web Browser" or "Tools for launching Preferred Applications" and bash has always used either "The GNU Bourne Again shell (bash) version 3.1." or "The GNU Bourne Again shell (bash) version 3.2" (and a 3.1 version has never been installed on the system). RHEL machines show the same flip flops with the same packages and same flopping summary texts. So where is rpm getting the bad information from????? Can it be cleaned out? What would be lost by cleaning it out?

DHCP_HOSTNAME in ifcfg-eth0
by Timothy Madden 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

Hello Is there a way for the dhcp client to send the current host name of the machine when requesting a lease ? Currently I have to include a line like DHCP_HOSTNAME=appserver2 in my /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0, but I would like to tell the dhcp client to just 'also send the hostname' and then the client to get the current hostname itself, instead of having the name hard-coded in the ifcfg-eth0 file. I am trying to get my router to know the names of all my CentOS machines, as currently I can access none of my CentOS machines by their node name (I get 'unknown host' upon name lookup) and maybe it will help if the router knows all the computer names. Thank you, Timothy Madden

Using the CR repo
by david 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

Folks I am trying to use the CR repo in for yum, but find that nothing is getting updated. The repository isn't even listed in the yum run. The file contents of /etc/yum.repo.d/CentOS-CR, after I adjusted the priority is: # CentOS-CR.repo # # The continuous release ( CR ) repository contains rpms from the # next point release of CentOS, which isnt itself released as yet. # # Look at http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/CR # for more details about how this repository works and what users # should expect to see included / excluded [cr] enabled=1 priority=3 name=CentOS-$releasever - CR baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/cr/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6 The YUM output does not list the CR repository. What am I doing wrong? David Kurn

Forget SMB password immediately
by Guitart Francesc 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

Hi, I'm new to CentOS and also on the list, since I usually work with Debian. My problem is as follows: I have a NAS where users connect to do their backups. Each user has a folder shared where only he can enter. Multiple users get connected from a CentOS 5.7 to the NAS, each in its shared folder. I connect to the NAS by entering the login, password and shared folder of user A (here I connect through SMB port 445) and I get disconnected by removing the volume. I re-connect in the same way with the user B and then disconnect. Now if I connect with any user without entering the shared folder (I get a netbios connection to port 139) I can enter to the shared folder of user A and B without entering their credentials. A netstat -an shows me a connection to port 139 and 445 per user. After a while (too I think) connections over ports 445 and 139 are automatically cuted and I have to authenticate again. How I can force always the request of login and password? Thanks in advance. -- Francesc Guitart

Hello, Can someone explain why I don't get a timeout when I use the community string "public" even if I don't have it defined in my snmpd.conf file. It doesn't return data but it also doesn't timeout. See example below. ... rocommunity nobody 127.0.0.1 ...

NFS: hostname vs IP address
by Steve Thompson 28 Nov '11

28 Nov '11

CentOS 5.7 x86_64. Lots of hosts NFS mounting a file system. All are configured identically (same LDAP servers, same DNS, same autofs config, same patches, etc). On some of them I see an NFS mount displaying a host name: % df -P | grep smt <hostname>:/mnt/foo 1651345888 264620688 1386725200 17% /fs/home/smt and on some just the IP address: % df -P | grep smt aa.bb.cc.dd:/mnt/foo 1651345888 264620688 1386725200 17% /fs/home/smt I cannot see any difference between the configuration of these two clients. Everything works. Anyone have a clue as to the source of this difference? -steve

It might be overkill but OpenNMS does that along with monitoring via SNMP. http://www.opennms.org > Also, does a script exist that checks all the services listed by chkconfig > and reports those that should be up but are down? OpenNMS normally probes to auto-discover running services, then alarms if they go away, but there is also a provisioning mode where you provide the nodes and services to monitor. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

Pipes (fifos) not working in concurrently
by Timothy Madden 26 Nov '11

26 Nov '11

Hello I have a large list of URLs (from a database, generated automatically during tests) that I want to download using several wget processes at the same time. With our internal web servers, this will be a lot faster than downloading the pages one at a time with a single process. So I create 20 pipes in my script with `mkfifo´ and connect the read end of each one to a new wget process for that fifo. The write end of each pipe is then connected to my script, with shell commands like `exec 18>>fifo_file_name´ Then my script outputs, in a loop, one line with an URL to each of the pipes, in turn, and then starts over again with the first pipe until there are no more URLs from the database client. Much to my dismay I find that there is no concurrent / parallel download with the child `wget´ processes, and that for some strange reason only one wget process can download pages at a time, and after that process completes, another one can begin. My script does feed *all* the pipes with data, one line to each pipe in turn, and has all the pipes written and closed by the time the first child process has even finished downloading. Do you know why my child processes manifest this behavior of waiting in turn for each other in order to start reading the fifo and download ? I figure it must be something about the pipes, because if I use regular files instead (and reverse the order: first write the URLs, then start wget to read them) than the child processes run in parallel as expected. The child processes also run in parallel if I open the write end of the pipes first, and the start the wget processes for the read end. They even run in parallel with my pipes, but I could see them run like this only for once in all my attempts. I do not know what was special about that attempt, it happened at the beginning of the day, and the computers where not restarted nor logged off over night. The pipes are created and deleted on ever run, with mkfifo and rm. Is there something special about fifos to make them run in sequence if I open the read end first ? My script is attached here, I believe it is nicely formatted and clear enough. Thank you, Timothy Madden

Add new host to /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml without virsh net-destroy?

Hi, When I setup a new KVM guest and add it's mac address to the default NAT'ted network, it would be nice to have that become active without having to destroy the network and recreate it - as that tends to make the other guests rather upset. Anybody knows how to achieve that? I've tried virsh net-edit but that doesn't seem to do anything useful :-( BR Bent

I don't know the price - I've only been here a few weeks. I'll have to check when I'm back at work for details on it - don't have my VPN login yet. I'm going into work tomorrow to migrate another filesystem to the ZFS so I'll try to remember then. I am pretty happy with it so far - nice system with a relatively simple but powerful GUI.

CentOS fileserver migrating to ZFS appliance
by Alan McKay 26 Nov '11

26 Nov '11

Hey folks, I've got a CentOS / RHEL (5.x) environment and am in the process of migrating the 5.3 file server over to an Oracle/Sun 7120 appliance. I want to keep my main 5.3 server as our NIS server but am moving NFS and Samba functions over to the appliance. NFS was a no brainer as one can imagine. Samba seems a bit trickier because of the authentication requirements in the ZFS server. They seem to want a domain controller which we don't have. Has anyone been here recently and can help with how to config the appliance for Samba but to authenticate from NIS ? thanks, -Alan -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"

CentOS6 yum-plugin-fastestmirror spectacular failure

Re: [CentOS] Forget SMB password immediately

Dear Guitart, You have Microsoft Windows on your mind . . . Microsoft has left the building! ----- Original Message ----- From: Guitart Francesc Sent: 11/23/11 05:11 AM To: centos(a)centos.org Subject: [CentOS] Forget SMB password immediately Hi, I'm new to CentOS and also on the list, since I usually work with Debian. My problem is as follows: I have a NAS where users connect to do their backups. Each user has a folder shared where only he can enter. Multiple users get connected from a CentOS 5.7 to the NAS, each in its shared folder. I connect to the NAS by entering the login, password and shared folder of user A (here I connect through SMB port 445) and I get disconnected by removing the volume. I re-connect in the same way with the user B and then disconnect. Now if I connect with any user without entering the shared folder (I get a netbios connection to port 139) I can enter to the shared folder of user A and B without entering their credentials. A netstat -an shows me a connection to port 139 and 445 per user. After a while (too I think) connections over ports 445 and 139 are automatically cuted and I have to authenticate again. How I can force always the request of login and password?

Bacula dbcheck in CentOS6

[Is it true that nobody replied to this in four months?] On Mon Jul 18 09:34:08 EDT 2011, Joseph L.

That's an error in the RPM install script. It uses the "alternatives" mechanism for switching between database backends but messes up. /usr/sbin/dbcheck ends up being linked to /usr/sbin/bscan.mysql instead of /usr/sbin/dbcheck.mysql. Consequently, when make_catalog_backup.pl tries to run dbcheck it's actually bscan which gets run. Not understanding the -B option is probably the least of its problems. :-) Until the RPM gets fixed, you can manually correct the bad symlink with: ln -sf /etc/alternatives/bacula-dbcheck /usr/sbin/dbcheck HTH T.

SSD diagnostics / test suite?
by Alan McKay 24 Nov '11

24 Nov '11

Hey folks, I looked back through the list archives and there are surprisingly few threads with "SSD" in the subject. In my new job I've been handed over a number of things that were outstanding with the previous Sys Admin, and one of them was an SSD that was suspect. I just plugged it into a diagnostics laptop to use the Linux Smart software to check it - and it all seems fine even after running the disk test suite from the GUI. In digging for more info I discovered that the errors were actually coming from the RAID controller - and the SSD has obviously been removed from there for the time being. While I have it in my hands I'd like to do some kind of complete test / diagnostics suite on it. Preferably Linux based since that's what we have here. I found a few windows-based tools with my googling. I did stumble upon this page which looks like it has a few useful tips for using SSDs on Linux http://danweinreb.org/blog/using-solid-state-disks-on-linux Now, what about comprehensive suites? Should I just run some IO suites on it like bonnie++ or something like that, and see what SMART says in the process? I'm suspecting the RAID controller at this point ... but want to be as thorough as possible while I have it in my hands. cheers, -Alan -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"

Problem with gdb or maybe gcc

I have CentOS 5.7. Before the last updates, when I ran gdb with a program name gave a breakpoint and then typed run it would stop on that breakpoint. Now it prints the message "Warning: no loadable sections in added symbol file." It then just runs the program without stopping. What could have changed? Are there some flags that need to be set when invoking gcc? Thanks, John -- John J.

Corosync init-script broken on CentOS6

Hello all, I am trying to create a corosync/pacemaker cluster using CentOS 6.0. However, I'm having a great deal of difficulty doing so. Corosync has a valid configuration file and an authkey has been generated. When I run /etc/init.d/corosync I see that only corosync is started. >From experience working with corosync/pacemaker before, I know that this is not enough to have a functioning cluster.

bind slave sync takes long
by Götz Reinicke 22 Nov '11

22 Nov '11

Hi, I do have two DNS servers running bind 9.7.3. One master, one slave. If I add/update a record on the master, it takes up to more or less 20 hours until that change is transferred to the slave. That is a long time for me :-) May be I got some settings wrong which would sync much faster ... ? What could be wrong? What might I check? Thanks for any suggestion and hint! Regards .

I'd check the NS records first to make sure both master and slave are listed. Is this server providing external DNS behind a NAT? It could be that you are trying to to zone transfers over the external IP to 2 servers on the same external firewall. in this case, you can add the also-notify { internal ip of slave}; stanza to the named.conf to force it to notify the slave on updates.

not using LVM for Linux VM guests?
by Smithies, Russell 21 Nov '11

21 Nov '11

I came across an old post comment yesterday (from http://echenh.blogspot.com/2010/04/how-to-extend-lvm-on-vmware-guest-os.html ) discussing the "hack" of LVM on Linux VM guests and whether it's better not to use it to simplify disk management. I've re-posted the comment below, does it sound reasonable? Is it better to not use LVM on Linux VM guests? --Russell ----------------------------------------------------------- At my job, after doing the same kind of procedure graph, we began to ask ourselves, why are using a LVM on a Linux VM guests? Since we're no longer living in the physical OS world, we didn't need to use the OS hacks(LVM) to overcome physical disk limitations anymore. We decided to Just let the hypervisor and virtual storage do that work for us. For example, in our production setup (3 tier commerce with VMs for database , webserver, and appserver), we're see a great improvement in managability and performance (>10%) by just dropping LVM, and most partitions. In your example, the resize process is 7 functional steps: 1. Increase size of VMDK 2. In VM OS, Create Partition (??) 3. REBOOT (!!) 4. PVCreate 5. VGExtend 6. LVExtend 7. Resize2fs Going to a LVM/partition-less setup reduces expansion to 3 steps and we don't need to take the VM OS offline! 1. Increase size of VMDK 2- Inside the VM, OS, rescan the scsi drive with:'echo 1 >/sys/class/scsi_device//rescan; dmesg' (dmesg will check that you drive isize has grown) 3- Resize2fs. Our current disk arrangement has 3 VM HD devices 0 - small device (100M) with a single BOOT partition 1 - entire device is / 2 - entire device is SWAP Doing this has simplified resizing so much, I now let the junior admins and my manager expand drive space as needed. It's also let's us really be spartan on space since expansion is so quick. Instead of increasing systems in 30-50GB chunks, we can do 10-15GB and let our rmonitoring system warn us when space gets tight. ------------------------------------------------------------- ======================================================================= Attention: The information contained in this message and/or attachments from AgResearch Limited is intended only for the persons or entities to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.

Having less languages in Firefox (hunspell dictionaries provide too many locales)
by Mathieu Baudier 21 Nov '11

21 Nov '11

Hello, on CentOS 6, I am routinely writing mails in English, German and French and using the related hunspell dictionaries for the spelling in Firefox (I'm using Google Apps). This works fine but the problem is that languages are added for all the possible locales (English US, UK, Philippines, Bostwana, Trinidad and Tobago, Denmark (sic!), ... and German Germany, Austria... and French France, Canada, Belgium...). So each time I want to switch from one language to the other (which sometimes happens every few minutes), I need to choose in a very long list (with non-deterministic ordering). First I thought it was no big deal, but with time I realize this is a loss of time and concentration which while not big is recurrent. Does anybody knows how I could reduce the list to English UK, German Germany and French France? (no offence to the other locales) An option would be to uninstall the hunspell dictionaries and install the dictionaries manually as Firefox addons, but I find it nice to have them provided by the base OS, and anyhow, I don't think that it is possible for English. Thanks in advance, Mathieu

serial console oddities with CentOS Linux release 6.0 (Final)
by Dennis Clarke 21 Nov '11

21 Nov '11

It seems as if /etc/inittab has undergone some changes. That doesn't seem to be related to my issues however. I am able to setup the grub.conf ( menu.lst if you like ) to use the serial console ttyS0 at 9600 baud and the usual bits. However I can not actually see the GRUB menu at boot time. I see nothing until the server begins to boot and then I can see everything. However the grub menu is absent entirely. My config looks like so : # grep -v "^#" /boot/grub/grub.conf default=0 timeout=30 serial --unit=0 --speed=9600 --word=8 --parity=no --stop=1 terminal -timeout=30 serial console title CentOS (2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64 ro root=UUID=2396ae8a-7eaa-4690-8701-10fb1b604e21 rd_NO_LUKS rd_NO_LVM rd_NO_MD rd_NO_DM LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 KEYBOARDTYPE=pc KEYTABLE=us crashkernel=auto rhgb console=tty0 console=ttyS0,9600n8 initrd /initramfs-2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64.img Everything runs fine, however the GRUB menu is no where to be seen at boot time. Any ideas ?

Setting up a Virtual Machine
by John J. Boyer 21 Nov '11

21 Nov '11

I have CentOS 5.7. How would I go about setting up a virtual machine so as to run another Linux distro on top of it? Specifically Scientific Linux or Vinux, a special distro for blind users. I will be using the latter to test my BrailelBlaster software with gtk and the Orca screenreader. Will I have to assign memory to the VM permanently? Thanks, John -- John J.

2 network card setup
by Johan Vermeulen 21 Nov '11

21 Nov '11

Dear all, I have a question regarding 2 network card setup, when e.g. using dhcp. Until a few months ago, I worked with OpenSuse. There in firewall config, you had to assign each NIC to a zone, either internal, external, DMZ or custom. Without it not much would work. I don't seen anything on CentOs in firewall config. So how does this work in CentOs? greetings, James -- Johan Vermeulen IT-medewerker Caw De Kempen johan.vermeulen(a)cawdekempen.be 0479.82.01.41 Opensource Software is the future.

build postfix spec w/ mysql
by Tim Dunphy 21 Nov '11

21 Nov '11

hello list! I am attempting to build an rpm of postfix that includes support for mysql. I've done this before with earlier versions on postfix but I am staring at this spec file until my eyes bleed and I just don't see why when I build the spec with rpmbuild mysql support isn't there. After I install the rpm I have a look at the modules as such: ldd $(which postfix) | grep -i mysql and nothing's there. I was hoping someone out there might not mind having a look at the spec file and let me know what I'm missing. # W A R N I N G -- DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE -- W A R N I N G # # postfix.spec # # This file was generated automatically from /home/sjmudd/RPM/SRC/postfix/postfix.spec.in. # If you want to build postfix with other options see make-postfix.spec in # the same directory for instructions. # -- # # File used to generate the distribution-specific postfix.spec file. # If you need to make changes to postfix.spec, make them to postfix.spec.in # and regenerate the spec file. # # See make-postfix.spec in %{_sourcedir} for more information. # # This spec file was built on distribution: rhel-5.0 # # Information imported from postfix.spec.in: DO NOT CHANGE IT BY HAND # # mysql_paths - paths where locally installed MySQL resides (or 0) # - if using this option mysql_paths should be as # follows: </pathto/mysql/include>:</pathto/mysql/lib> # e.g.: /usr/mysql/include:/usr/mysql/lib # - The order is important and only 2 directories may # be given. # requires_db - used to add dbX dependencies in the package # smtpd_multiline_greeting - my patch to allow multiline banner # mps - man page suffix, .gz except Mandrake >= 8 which uses .bz2 # with_cdb - include CDB support by Michael Tokarev # <mjt(a)corpit.ru> # with_dovecot - include DOVECOT SASL authentication # with_ldap - include LDAP support # with_mysql - include support for www.mysql.com's MySQL rpms # with_mysql_redhat - include support for RedHat's MySQL rpms # with_pcre - include pcre support # with_pgsql - include Postgres database support # with_sasl - include Cyrus SASL/AUTH support (0 to disable sasl, # 1 for sasl v1, or 2 for sasl v2, sasl_library is # the sasl library to link against, distribution dependent) # with_spf - include libspf2 library support (EXPERIMENTAL) # - rpms for libspf can be found at http://www.sosdg.org/rpm/libspf/ # with_tls - include TLS support # with_tlsfix - include TLS fix # - needed for rh6.2, rh9 and rhel3 # with_vda - add virtual delivery agent patch # # Please send bugfixes and comments to the packager. # # distribution which the spec file was built from %define distribution rhel-5.0 %define MYSQL 1 # distribution which we are building Postfix on # - call my script once to speed up build process %define distro_info %(sh $(rpm --eval '%{_sourcedir}')/postfix-get-distribution --distro-info) %define build_dist_full %(echo "%distro_info" | cut -d" " -f5) %define build_name %(echo "%distro_info" | cut -d" " -f1) %define build_major %(echo "%distro_info" | cut -d" " -f3) %define build_minor %(echo "%distro_info" | cut -d" " -f4) %define build_dist %{build_name}-%{build_major}.%{build_minor} %define mps %(test "%{build_name}" = mandrake -a "%{build_major}" -ge 8 && echo .bz2 || echo .gz) %define mysql_paths 0 %define mysql_local %(test "%{mysql_paths}" != 0 && echo 1 || echo 0) %define mysql_include %(echo "%{mysql_paths}" | cut -d: -f1) %define mysql_lib %(echo "%{mysql_paths}" | cut -d: -f2) # determine PCRE library based on distribution name %define pcre_requires %(test %{build_dist} = mandrake && echo libpcre0 || echo pcre) # determine SASL library based on distribution name %define sasl_library %(test %{build_dist} = mandrake && echo libsasl-devel || echo cyrus-sasl-devel) %define requires_db 4 %define requires_zlib 1 %define smtpd_multiline_greeting 1 # alternatives priority can now be changed in one place. # - this used to be 30 but RH seems to have defined other higher values # and some users need another value. # Don't change this unless you really think you need to. %define with_alt_prio 30 %define with_cdb 0 %define with_ldap 1 %define with_mysql 0 %define with_mysql_redhat 0 %define with_pcre 0 %define with_pgsql 0 %define with_sasl 0 %define with_spf 0 %define with_dovecot 0 %define with_tls 1 %define with_tlsfix 2 %define with_vda 0 # support the conditional builds via rpm's --with debug %define debug %{?_with_debug:1}%{?!_with_debug:0} # patch and version information %define V_vda 2.5.4 %define V_cdb 1.1.11-20021104 %define V_postfinger 1.30 # If set to 1 if official version, 0 if snapshot %define official 1 %define V_postfix 2.8.4 %define rel 1.rhel5 %if %{official} %define V_tarball %{V_postfix} %define ftp_dir official %else %define V_release_date RC2 %define V_tarball %{V_postfix}-%{V_release_date} %define ftp_dir experimental %endif # rpm does not accept '-' in version strings so replace them with a '.' # - (only affects snapshots) %define V_package %(echo %{V_tarball} | sed 's/-/./g') # rpm-workaround: # # We can NOT use %{_docdir}/%{name}-%{version} for installing the docs # from the 'install' section as RPM kindly removes this directory after # we have installed files to it.

The binary and source rpms I produce are currently available at http://postfix.WL0.org, ftp://ftp.WL0.org and the mirrors which can be found at the following URL: http://postfix.WL0.org/en/mirrors/ This package/specfile was built from postfix.spec.in. To see the build options used to build this package see the file %{_sysconfdir}/postfix/postfix.spec.cf To use postfix with alternative options download the source package and rebuild the binary package following the instructions in the source package or on my web page. %prep umask 022 %{die_cmd} # check custom MYSQL path values are sensible to avoid problems # with people mixing include and lib directories if [ "%{mysql_paths}" != 0 ]; then exit_error() { cat <<-EOF ************************************************************************* CUSTOM MYSQL configuration error mysql_paths=%mysql_paths (0=Not used) mysql_local=%mysql_local (0=Not used,1=used) mysql_include=%mysql_include (include directory) mysql_lib=%mysql_lib (lib directory) ERROR: $1 If you don't want to use a custom mysql installation set mysql_paths to 0. ************************************************************************* EOF exit 1 } [ $(echo "%{mysql_paths}" | awk -F: '{ print NF }') = 2 ] || \ exit_error "mysql_paths should be of the form /pathto/mysql/include:/pathto/mysql/lib, with only 2 directories" echo "%{mysql_include}" | grep -q "/lib" && \ exit_error "The first path in mysql_paths appears to be a library path: it should be an include path (e.g. /usr/local/include)" echo "%{mysql_lib}" | grep -q "/include" && \ exit_error "The second path in mysql_paths appears to be an include path: it should be a library path (e.g. /usr/local/lib)" fi # Warn if the distribution this spec file was made for isn't the same as # the current distribution, using a script in the SOURCES directory. # This will be removed and built into the spec file later. distribution=$(sh $(rpm --eval '%{_sourcedir}')/postfix-get-distribution) if [ "${distribution}" != "%{distribution}" ]; then cat <<ENDTEXT ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR This postfix.spec file may not work correctly.

I have also added a symbolic link to the readme_files and html directories from %{_sysconfdir}/postfix. The main Postfix web site is http://www.postfix.org. Packages -------- Newer versions of source and standard binary packages may be available from http://ftp.WL0.org or the mirrors listed at http://postfix.WL0.org. Look in the appropriate directory according to your distribution. Mailing List ------------ I host a mailing list to announce new packages as they are released. If you are interested in subscribing take a look at http://postfix.WL0.org/en/lists/. Previous announcements are archived. Chrooting --------- The chroot behaviour of my packages has changed over time. Current packages will NOT turn on the chroot environment in Postfix. Older versions did the opposite. If you upgrade from an older version of my package the chroot behaviour will NOT be changed. (Check %{_sysconfdir}/postfix/master.cf for details.) I have provided a simple script postfix-chroot.sh which attempts to cover most situations and should enable you to disable or enable the chroot on your system with little effort. Package Build Options --------------------- This package can be built on several Linux distributions and with several optional features. %{_sysconfdir}/postfix/postfix.spec.cf contains the information used to build this version of the rpm. It can also be used to build a new rpm with the same options. Enjoy!

high availability ideas
by nux＠li.nux.ro 19 Nov '11

19 Nov '11

Hi, I'm looking for some recommendations. I need to have some sort of high availability for a set of php & mysql web sites, they must be hosted on 2 servers, in separate data centres and obviously on differrent IPs. I can't use a load balancer because that will introduce a single point of failure making the "distributed setup" useless. I was thinking some sort of drbd/glusterfs/mysql-master-master replication and figure out how to make the dns system responsible with the fail over. Am I going too far with this? Thanks.

Changes at Red Hat confouding CentOS (was: What happened to 6.1)
by Alan McKay 19 Nov '11

19 Nov '11

These seems to me to be the first message in the series and provides a really good summary of the changes at Red Hat which seem to be making life a lot more difficult for CentOS. Just figured I'd pull it out of that thread and change the subject line. Below Johnny's email I've copied another from the original thread, written by Lamar Owen, which gives some good explanation on how Red Hat is able to get away with this. Basically from what I gather, while Red Hat cannot restrict access to sources, they can restrict access to binaries. And since CentOS has a goal of binary compatibility with upstream, they are essentially left trying to hit an unknown target. But (now I'm stretching my limited knowledge even further) Scientific does not have this restriction since they are less concerned about exact binary compat.

The RHN AUP simply says that if you redistribute information from RHN you lose access to RHN. It does not restrict your right to redistribute anything; it restricts access to future information distributions from RHN. I know that's splitting hairs, but it does seem to meet the letter of the license. After all, RHN access is not required except for updates; if I really wanted to do so I could redistribute everything I have from RHN at this point in time and upstream has no legal recourse against that distribution that I know of (but I am neither a lawyer nor a paralegal; Russ on the other hand knows of what he speaks....). They can, however, choose to not distribute anything else to me in the future, and nothing in the GPL or any other license used by upstream forces them to distribute anything new to me. And that's the gestalt of the RHN AUP; it states under what conditions RHN will distribute the compiled binary code (treated specially by GPL and not as a derived work) to you, its customer. Once you have received the binary of a particular version you have the right, under GPL and only for GPL-covered packages, to receive the source code for that particular version of that package. Upstream is very gracious (in my opinion, at least) and distributes all of its source, not just GPL source and not just to customers but to the public at large (I say all; I haven't personally verified that all source in any given RHN channel is indeed available publicly on ftp.redhat.com, primarily because I don't have access to all channels). They could distribute only the source that they legally have to under those licenses that require it, but not for the source covered under other licenses that do not require redistribution of source plus modifications. But just because I have version 1.2.3 of a package does not give me a guaranteed right under GPL to get 1.2.4 from them. And just because I can get the source to the 1.2.4 package they distribute does not give me an automatic right to the corresponding binary as the GPL does treat the compiled code specially. If you get the binary, you have the right to the source; if you have the source it is assumed you can generate the binary yourself (as is proven by the various EL rebuilds). The level of difficulty required to generate the binary is not specified or even addressed by the GPL, nor does the GPL guarantee your ability to generate the exact same binary as someone else distributes..... nor is the distributor of the binary restricted at all in how difficult generating their exact binary, or a 100% compatible binary, can be. This seems to be the current holdup with C6.1, in my opinion; you can build *a* binary but will it work just like *the* binary? Upstream can make it even more difficult than they already have (and I know it's currently very frustrating to the CentOS team just from reading this thread!). Russ, is that summary even close to accurate in your opinion? These are the facts of life for an EL rebuild distribution user. If you want a primary access distribution (rather than a secondary rebuild) you need to find one that meets your needs, either by paying up for upstream or by going to something else (and there are really only two suitable enterprise choices for 'something else' in this case (and in my opinion): OpenSuSE or Debian Stable). I'm evaluating Debian Stable on IA64 myself, as Debian Stable is the only actively maintained enterprise-grade distribution (again, in my opinion) freely available for IA64 (yes, upstream's EL5 is still available and is still maintained, but it costs six arms and eight legs to purchase for the machines I have; SLES likewise). And I don't really currently have the time to rebuild C6 for IA64 myself. I'd love to, and I've had conversations with like-minded people, and I don't really want to go to Debian on it since I really want the IA64 boxes to work like all the other servers here which are running upstream EL rebuilds. But I have more important and necessary things to do with my time at the moment than to get into the game of maintaining a private rebuild for IA64 (I say private; even if I had time to maintain the build I don't have time to deal with the 'issues' of a public build!). -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"

Is this ok? ip addr add 10.1.22.100/22 dev eth0:1 2. Should I define the broadcast too in the above command? If I don't define it, will the above command means the broadcast would be 10.1.25.255?

nfs4 problem in CENTOS6
by Michael Schumacher 18 Nov '11

18 Nov '11

Hi, This is slightly offtopic, but I have been trying to resolve that problem for two days now without much success. It looks like this may be something that works with CENTOS5, but not with CENTOS6! I have two machines, fileserver1 and server5. fileserver1 runs on CENTOS6 (virtualized, if this is important), server5 runs on Centos5. Both are running with the most recent updates. Server5 is a machine to store backups on. Several servers, including fileserver1, are mounted with nfs4 on server5. fileserver1 has this /etc/fstab: ---8<---/etc/fstab--- UUID=73254e19-895f-4190-b2e3-13a2b0bec9ce / ext4 defaults 1 1 UUID=ac658802-73e4-4c87-bb03-6f9af1ebc4f8 /mnt/data ext4 defaults 1 2 UUID=4836335a-2d66-4d12-9dec-7197dc772d77 swap swap defaults 0 0 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /mnt /mnt dazukofs / /nfsexport/root none bind 0 0 /mnt/data /nfsexport/data none bind 0 0 ---8<--- AS you can see, /mnt/data is a partition mounted below /.

The active mount /mnt/nfs/fileserver/root is working nicely, but if I cd into /mnt/nfs/fileserver/root/mnt and enter ls there, the console hangs infinetly. As I wrote, server5 also mounts other servers filesystems without problems. All working systems are CENTOS5, the one not working is CENTOS6. Any idea? best regards --- Michael Schumacher

Hello, I have a server working on centos 5.7-64 minimal installation. I have 3 separate physical drives: 120 gb ssd, 2x 3tb disks for storage. My linux installation is on ssd disk, and I want to make raid 1 for these two 3tb disks and store data, like under /mnt/data. Can you please tell me the path how this is possible?

CentOS 6 smb authentication?
by Les Mikesell 18 Nov '11

18 Nov '11

I have some services on Centos5 boxes that use smb authentication against the Windows domain as a low-maintenance way to handle most of our office users for things that don't need home directories (web/file shares, etc.). Running authconfig is all it takes to add it to PAM, then adding mod_auth_pam to apache makes it work with that and local users. This all works without any particular involvement with the Windows group or administrative access there. Is there a better way to do this on C6 that does not involve 'joining' the windows domain? And is there a way to make samba (C5 or 6) work with Windows7 other than configuring every client to to send NTLM authentication when requested? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

Difference in gnome between centos <> fedora
by Andreas Reschke 17 Nov '11

17 Nov '11

Hello, I've on my home PC CentOS 6 and Fedora 13 on different disks. When I log on the gnome enviroment at Fedora knows exactly which programm was started at which desktop (for example: thunderbird on desktop 1, firefox on desktop 2, nautilus on desktop 3, ..). The same procedure on Centos takes all programs on the first desktop, so I must arrange the programs on the right desktop. Question: why kows the gnome of Fedora al the postions and the gnome from CentOS doesn't? Is there a way to automaticly arrange the programs ?

Where is source address info of a route kept?
by Dale Dellutri 16 Nov '11

16 Nov '11

I have an ethernet device in my lan with a primary address 192.168.5.205 and a secondary address .217. I added the secondary address after network startup established the primary address by an ip addr add command: # ip addr add 192.168.5.217/24 broadcast 192.168.5.255 dev eth0 # ip addr show ... 2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast qlen 1000 link/ether 78:2b:cb:23:21:4c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff inet 192.168.5.205/24 brd 192.168.5.255 scope global eth0 inet 192.168.5.217/24 brd 192.168.5.255 scope global secondary eth0 inet6 fe80::7a2b:cbff:fe23:214c/64 scope link valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever ... Then I add a new route via a network gateway but I want the route to use the secondary address as a source. # ip route add 11.11.11.11 via 192.168.5.148 src 192.168.5.217 And the ip route show command shows that it knows the source. # ip route show 11.11.11.11 via 192.168.5.148 dev eth0 src 192.168.5.217 But where is the source address kept? If I look at /proc/net/route, it shows the route (0B0B0B0B = 11.11.11.11), but not the source address. # cat /proc/net/route Iface Destination Gateway Flags RefCnt Use Metric Mask MTU Window IRTT eth0 0B0B0B0B 9405A8C0 0007 0 0 0 FFFFFFFF 0 0 0 ...

lm_sensors on Sun (x86) Hardware
by Alan McKay 16 Nov '11

16 Nov '11

Hey folks, I'm running RHEL 5.3 on 6 boxes - and on every one of them sensors-detect finds nothing. 5 of them are Sun fire 2250 machines, and 1 is Sunfire 4170. Googling and searching this list does not seem to find anything. When I log into the Sun hardware management interface (web interface) I see that it of course is correctly detecting various temperatures of things. But for some reason Linux is not. Does anyone here have experience in this area and can tell me how to fix this? thanks, -Alan -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"

clustering
by Alan McKay 16 Nov '11

16 Nov '11

Hey folks, I just went through the archives trying to find some info on this but did not come up with much other than it seems there are a few experts here on the list. I have no experience with clustering and have just taken over a Stem Cell Research Lab that has a Grid Engine cluster. I have not yet dug into the details of Grid Engine (only been here a week now) but am just trying to get up to speed on clustering in general. I was just looking at Red Hat's site and they have this HPC thing http://www.redhat.com/promo/mrg/ but damned if I can find any actual details on it there - that data sheet they link to is just a bunch of marketing gobble-de-gook as far as I can make sense of it anyway. Quick question : what are Red Hat using to do that, and can CentOS do the same thing? How hard is it to configure? How does it compare to Grid Engine? I have to say I'm a bit hesitant about Grid Engine because of the whole Oracle takeover. I just don't trust Oracle. Basically I'd like to get up to speed really quickly on different clustering technologies, and maybe even set up a CentOS (or Scientific) based cluster in a sandbox to play with. I guess - looking for reading to get up to speed on clustering, and wondering what my options are with CentOS, RHEL and Scientific. thanks, -Alan -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"

pgadmin3 missing dependencies
by Alan McKay 16 Nov '11

16 Nov '11

I searched the list archives and I found one answer to this which suggested I should install the PG yum repos. I don't like that answer for reasons which follow. I'm running Centos 6.0 freshly installed, and I've decided that with this box I'm sticking as much as possible to just the CentOS repos that go with that release. I figure in particular I do not need any PG features above what are offered in release 8.4 that comes from the CentOS repos, so I don't really want to install PG repos. But first of all I do not even see pgadmin3 in the CentOS repos anywhere. Am I correct that in order to get this tool I need to get it from the PG repo? It seems odd to me that CentOS would not have it but stranger things have happened. So I pull down the pgadmin3 RPM manually, and try to do a manual install only to find that a number of RPMs are missing and required. I guess at this point I could just install the repo for PG to yum it all, but I'd like to know what RPMs are required and I am unable to figure that out. I figured out at least that I need libxslt, but cannot figure out from the below output what other RPMs are needed and where I get them. libxslt I got from 6.0 yum repos.

"Overlay" Filesystem Mounts?
by Tim Nelson 15 Nov '11

15 Nov '11

Greetings- Is it possible to mount multiple block devices (or network devices over NFS/CIFS) such that the contents of the mounts appear in one location? For example, lets say I have these shares available: \\server1\volume1\ \\server1\volume2\ \\server1\volume3\ All three contain a directory called data, with different subdirectories. Typically, these would be mounted like so: mount \\server1\volume1\ /mnt/s1v1 mount \\server1\volume2\ /mnt/s1v2 mount \\server1\volume3\ /mnt/s1v3 And, each would have a corresponding 'data' dir at those mounts: /mnt/s1v1/data /mnt/s1v2/data /mnt/s1v3/data However, it is possible to mount all of the shares to one location, such that there is one 'data' dir, with the combined contents of each of the three shares? So, all shares are mounted at /mnt/s1, and the contents of the multiple data dirs appears in one single data dir? The only time I've seen such functionality is within the XBMC media center application. It allows you to mount multiple network shares, but shows them all in one location as a sort of 'overlay' view. Duplicate directories are shown have their contents merged, but remain intact on the actual shares/filesystem. Does any of this make sense? Is it possible with CentOS (pref. 6) ? --Tim

Centos6 and samba and nmblookup
by david 15 Nov '11

15 Nov '11

Folks I've installed Centos6 and Samba. I noticed that the program "nmblookup" and a few other Samba related programs, documented in the RHEL6 guide, are not included in Centos6. A search using YUM also did not find "nmblookup", using the repositories: base, centosplus, contrib, cr, epel, extras, updates, virtualbox Has its functionality been moved elsewhere, or should I try to find something wrong in my environment? Thanks David Kurn

bond of bonds
by Paras pradhan 15 Nov '11

15 Nov '11

Hi, I am trying to use Link-aggregation with redundancy between switches that doesnot support SMLT in switches. I have 4 network ports. First two are connected to a switch and LACP/LAG is enabled. Third and Fourth ports connect to another switch with another LAG group. I was thinking create two mode 4 bonds and bond those bonds to mode 1 (Active/Passive) bond. But it seems this is not supported yet in kernel (?). How do you guys handle this kind of situation. (And yes without using SMLT between switches). Thanks Paras.

Redhat vs centos vs ubuntu
by Bob Hoffman 15 Nov '11

15 Nov '11

This is a continuation of the thread about redhat vs centos and the thought of moving from centos due to redhats new business model. Forgive the length, but I had to share. I went ahead and downloaded the 5 year supported version of ubuntu server. You think centos/redhat is a bit tough or not polished? One day with ubuntu server and you will look at centos install and setup as a god! Where do I begin? 1- you download the iso, burn a cd. But guess what? It is only a small boot setup (about 600mb). The install actually sets up your eth port and then SLOWLY downloads a base set of packages. Then when you are done with your drive set up, you get to pick a package. Then it downloads and installs, asking you a few questions as it does. Then it upgrades itself. About 40 minutes due to the downloads for me... 2- uses a really lame 1980 DOS version of a text installer. It does not and will not use a basic vid driver install which means your setting up of lvms and such during the install is really fun. 3- I don't know about having a server being forced to connect to the internet before you can even begin to secure it up. But the only way to really install it is to do that. Wait til you see the insecure firewall setup if gave me too.. 4- I picked the virtual host package, as the machine will hold guest OS's (presumably ubuntu). 5- booted up fine. 6- uses upstart and init, mixed up a bit. Upstart, BY DESIGN AND ACCORDING TO DOCUMENTATION is new and still being built so they do not want to put any documentation out on it yet. This makes chkconfig and things like that useless. Hence, if you want to know what is running, set to run, etc, you need to dig in multiple folders and read the scripts. There is no other way. What a horror. 7- The install, of the virtual host, added libvirt. It did not however install things like virt-install or any other virt software. Infact, no guest installation tools were added, though things like virsh were installed. Sigh. 8- The firewall and network do not have the scripts folder. You have to build your own firewall file and add scripts to make it over ride the stock one via the eth you want to use it for....wtf? 9- here is the firewall, for a virtual host, that should not have anything but port 22 open as far as the initial install should (at least in my opinion).....Ubuntu starts with this.... (remember, ubuntu forces you to be online to install and this is how it protects your server) I was not blocked on a single port going from my desktop to my server via my router. ALL PORTS were accessible. This is out of the box. Shell 22 was open from all my computers. Not listed in the firewall as open. You can see it is quite different than the centos stock and I think ubuntu is a 'run away' install. There is no bridge set up in the network interface files either. There is no bridge set up. The firewall is looking at virbr0 but there is no such configuration I could find in the etc folder, anywhere. Very odd. # Generated by iptables-save v1.4.4 on Mon Nov 7 23:35:47 2011 *nat :PREROUTING ACCEPT [84:12492] :POSTROUTING ACCEPT [9:626] :OUTPUT ACCEPT [9:626] -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.122.0/24 ! -d 192.168.122.0/24 -p tcp -j MASQUERADE --to-ports 1024-65535 -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.122.0/24 ! -d 192.168.122.0/24 -p udp -j MASQUERADE --to-ports 1024-65535 -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.122.0/24 ! -d 192.168.122.0/24 -j MASQUERADE COMMIT # Completed on Mon Nov 7 23:35:47 2011 # Generated by iptables-save v1.4.4 on Mon Nov 7 23:35:47 2011 *filter :INPUT ACCEPT [3701:295955] :FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0] :OUTPUT ACCEPT [793:1276008] -A INPUT -i virbr0 -p udp -m udp --dport 53 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -i virbr0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 53 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -i virbr0 -p udp -m udp --dport 67 -j ACCEPT -A INPUT -i virbr0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 67 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -d 192.168.122.0/24 -o virbr0 -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -s 192.168.122.0/24 -i virbr0 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -i virbr0 -o virbr0 -j ACCEPT -A FORWARD -o virbr0 -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-port-unreachable -A FORWARD -i virbr0 -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-port-unreachable COMMIT # Completed on Mon Nov 7 23:35:47 2011 In closing, it is down to suse or back to centos and just pray redhat turns around. Maybe scientific linux. Ubuntu is not ready for prime time and a HUGE step backwards. It is not cutting edge and very insecure. So maybe centos, even if a year or two behind, is way better than ubuntu will ever be. I took a shot at paid support. You have to send them a contact mail. I did. After 3 days sent them another. 2 days later, no response from that one either. down to suse or back to centos. One good thing about ubuntu was the bug redhat has for the ati onboard video is not an issue making no errors on boot and no long hang time that centos was causing me.

CentOS versus Scientific
by Alan McKay 14 Nov '11

14 Nov '11

Hey folks, I was just reminded of the Scientific distro, which on the surface appears to be quite similar to CentOS even when the developers over there are rather coy about which Enterprise Linux distro they base theirs on. I wonder if anyone here has done a comparison of the two that they'd care to share. I work in a Scientific Research Lab (Stem Cell Research) and am wondering if there is anything about the Scientific disto that might be better suited to our needs, even if it is only the fact that it is put together by people who work in similar environments and would therefore understand our needs better. I'm just starting to read up on it to see what I think and thought I would ask what others think. One thing I will have to look into of course is what kind of support there is - this list is absolutely fantastic for CentOS and that alone is worth a lot. cheers, -Alan -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"

Misterious hang
by Fajar Priyanto 14 Nov '11

14 Nov '11

Hi all, Recently one my Centos 5.7 VM just crashes at least once a day randomly (hang). In /var/log/messages there is nothing at all that there is problem (no error, no failure). The log just stops. The only change I did before this crashes is I activated LDAP authentication, and also auditd. But I don't see any evidence relating to it. Any clue where to look for the cause? Thank you. Fajar

fdisk on centos 6
by Jerry Geis 14 Nov '11

14 Nov '11

I am getting the WRONG values reported from fdisk on centos 6. This is listing an 8G CF card on /dev/sde Disk /dev/sde: 8019 MB, 8019099648 bytes 247 heads, 62 sectors/track, 1022 cylinders Units = cylinders of 15314 * 512 = 7840768 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0xd1b46611 It should be 255 heads, 63 sectors/track. Under centos 5 this is reported correctly. I even tried specifying the -S 63 -H 255 on the fdisk command line - that did not help. my symptom is when I setup my CF card to run linux - I get a grub error 2. What kind of madness is happening?

VM Philosophy 101 - How many and for what?
by James B. Byrne 14 Nov '11

14 Nov '11

We are at the stage, finally, where we are prepared to deploy public facing VM guests. Now we have to answer these questions: How many guests in total should we contemplate and what services are placed on which guests? My question comes down to whether it is considered advisable to run the primary DNS and IMAP, or indeed all services, on separate vm guests; or should we continue, more or less, with the present split and just move everything into guests on a one-for-one basis from our existing hosts? Will additional vms necessarily increase the amount of time given to system maintenance as I suspect? Previously, with only a few physical hosts, the number of platforms was fixed and services were split more or less on the basis of internal and external users. Not to mention which host had more available resources at the time the service was implemented. For example, presently our primary DNS and the IMAP services runs on one server with MailScanner controlled Sendmail used only for local delivery and forwarding. On another host we run the publicly accessible MX MTA and a secondary public DNS. On a third we run our fax server and public web site together with a caching only DNS service. I very much would appreciate any relevant comments from people who have already resolved this matter together with their reasoning. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

Postfix mail server procedure
by Jonathan Vomacka 14 Nov '11

14 Nov '11

CentOS Community, I was wondering if anyone had a good resource or procedure for a step by step in installing a mail server with Centos. There ARE documents on google, however almost all that i've found were outdated from 2005. Does anyone know where I can find this type of document for a mailserver Postfix + MySQL + SpamAssassin + ClamAV + Squirrelmail + Postfixadmin, etc?

No more sound since gfx card update

Our workstation vendor EOL'd the gfx card we were buying and replaced it with a different model. With the new card, sound is no longer working.

binding additional IP addresses to centos6 on one interface
by Jonathan Vomacka 14 Nov '11

14 Nov '11

I know this was discussed before, and I have seen a million ways of doing this via online docs. I have a quick question that hopefully the community can help me out with I am trying to add a block of 10 IP addresses. Rather then create 10 different alias files, I want to use the RANGE file. Docs say to use the following format: IPADDR_START=x.x.x.x IPADDR_END=x.x.x.x CLONENUM_START=0 If the IP's that are given to you are on a completely seperate gateway / netmask, how would you enter it into this file? Is it necessary? Please advise.

Trouble with Mailman
by John J. Boyer 13 Nov '11

13 Nov '11

I have set up Mailman on a virtual private server from 1and1 running Centos, though I can't tell which version. The system has 2 GB of memory. Mailman is receiving posts, but it is not sending them out to everybody. It is also getting some out-of-memory errors. The server is also runing Plesk for Web hosting. Something on the server is leaking memory. When first booted it has nearly 1.5 GB of free memory. Now this is down to .75 GB. Any hints will be appreciated. Thanks, -- John J.

how to get dev/dsp and oss modules back
by Shaun Jones 13 Nov '11

13 Nov '11

Hello I have some older programs that require OSS and /dev/dsp I have tried the pulseaudio trick with padsp but some work and some don't. I have also edited the /etc/modprobe/dist-oss-conf and uncommented the line that says install snd-pcm /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install snd-pcm && /sbin/modprobe snd-pcm-oss && /sbin/modprobe snd-seq-device && /sbin/modprobe snd-seq-oss This was supposed to work at least from what I have read to get the modules back but unfortunately it has not. I have no /dev/dsp at all or any oss modules when doing a lsmod. As you can see here snd_emu10k1_synth 4968 0 snd_emux_synth 30789 1 snd_emu10k1_synth snd_seq_virmidi 4176 1 snd_emux_synth snd_seq_midi_event 5815 1 snd_seq_virmidi snd_seq_midi_emul 5187 1 snd_emux_synth snd_seq 46091 4 snd_emux_synth,snd_seq_virmidi,snd_seq_midi_event,snd_seq_midi_emul snd_emu10k1 128854 5 snd_emu10k1_synth snd_rawmidi 18705 2 snd_seq_virmidi,snd_emu10k1 snd_ac97_codec 95710 1 snd_emu10k1 ac97_bus 942 1 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcm 66969 3 snd_emu10k1,snd_ac97_codec snd_seq_device 5354 5 snd_emu10k1_synth,snd_emux_synth,snd_seq,snd_emu10k1,snd_rawmidi snd_timer 18308 3 snd_seq,snd_emu10k1,snd_pcm snd_page_alloc 7080 2 snd_emu10k1,snd_pcm snd_util_mem 2950 2 snd_emux_synth,snd_emu10k1 snd_hwdep 5320 2 snd_emux_synth,snd_emu10k1 snd 52754 17 snd_emux_synth,snd_seq_virmidi,snd_seq,snd_emu10k1,snd_rawmidi,snd_ac97_codec,snd_pcm,snd_seq_device,snd_timer,snd_hwdep soundcore 6460 1 snd I have tried it with both pulseaudio installed and pulseaudio not installed and no go either way. So my question is this, have the OSS modules and support been removed from the kernel like many other distros have done? If so I will have to rebuild the kernel to get this functionality back which really is no big deal, but was hoping someone would know something I do not, thanks in advance. -- Mister Jones

Re: [CentOS] Redhat vs centos vs ubuntu

Hi, Sorry about the top-posting, I'm replying from my blackberry. I've been following this thread for a while and really don't see why people respond so rabidly to criticism. If something bothers/bores me about a thread I just Ignore the thread/user. If no one is interested the thread dies out on its own. However, let if someone has something to say let them. The people who reply/comment *want* to talk about it. No one forces anyone to *read* the thread. Just ignore it. It's that simple. Going as far as threatening to ban a user for commenting negatively or positively or. even "off-topic" (this is relative, e.g., I found the discussion on the strengths & weaknesses of ubuntu/centos/redhat el interesting & in some cases informative as the various issues were debated). I would think that there's nothing wrong with allowing people the freedom to discuss centos-related stuff on the centos list. As I mentioned earlier it's as simple as ignoring a thread if don't like it. There's no need to flame, ban or go on a rant just because someone says something you don't like about your favourite OS has been attacked. For the record I *like* centos & am in the process of replacing some of my fedora & ubuntu server installations *with* centos.

But if you install 6.0 and use CR, you are in good shape. There are even updates in there that are newer than 6.1 (it also contains the updates TO 6.1).

Convert RTF to ANSI color codes

Anyone have a script or utility to convert an RTF file to ANSI? The main idea here is to preserve the color codes that are specified in the RTF file, so they can be displayed easily in a terminal window.

Hello all, I noticed that pirut is no longer part of CentOS6. Does anybody know if there is a different graphical interface to yum that came to replace it? Thanks. Boris.

CentOS 6 Active Directory 2008 R2 kickstart
by James A. Peltier 10 Nov '11

10 Nov '11

Hi All, Anyone have a working CentOS 6 kickstart file that they are using to bind a host to Active Directory 2008 R2? I'm working on a full AD/Linux environment and would like to stand on the shoulders of others if they are already doing such a thing. I'm thinking I need to enable LDAP and Kerberos, although Winbind might also be the key here. The config will ideally get the UID and GID from the AD UNIX Attributes tab and not some random UID/GID hash. -- James A.

restricting access to an NIS netgroup
by Mike VanHorn 10 Nov '11

10 Nov '11

I am using CentOS 5.7. I have an /etc/security/access.conf file which has the following: + : root : LOCAL + : @mynetgroup : ALL - : ALL : ALL I thought this is supposed to restrict access to the system to only root and the accounts in the mynetgroup netgroup; however, anyone NIS account is still able to login. It appears that the access.conf is being ignored completely, so I'm thinking there's something I'm missing. How can I restrict access to a system based on NIS netgroups? Thanks! --- Mike VanHorn Senior Computer Systems Administrator College of Engineering and Computer Science Wright State University 265 Russ Engineering Center 937-775-5157 michael.vanhorn(a)wright.edu http://www.engineering.wright.edu/~mvanhorn/

coordinated NIS and LDAP servers
by Boris Epstein 09 Nov '11

09 Nov '11

Hello listmates, We are currently running NIS for authentication but would like to migrate to LDAP. Thing is, though, that some of the machines that authenticate via NIS are so old I'd rather not even touch them. Hence the question - is there a good way to have an NIS server for user authentication that is a mirror image of an LDAP server, with a proviso that an update introduced there is replicated in the LDAP server's databases? Thanks. Boris.

Fwd: centos Wireless - Broadcom BCM4313
by Johan Vermeulen 09 Nov '11

09 Nov '11

Dear All, I'm trying to configure wireless card on a Dell Vostro 1540. I had a look at this site : http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless/Broadcom?action=show wireless card :# /sbin/lspci | grep Broadcom 12:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4313 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Controller (rev 01) I decided to follow the ELrepo instructions suggested on the site : http://elrepo.org/tiki/wl-kmod because it would give me a clear and present rpm that I can use on different machines and that will survive kernel updates. This all goes down without error messages. After installing, there is a new entry in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules : # PCI device 0x14e4:0x4727 (wl) SUBSYSTEM=="net", ACTION=="add", DRIVERS=="?*", ATTR{address}=="94:39:e5:dc:3a:cf", ATTR{type}=="1", KERNEL=="eth*", NAME="eth1" and there is now a blacklist-Broadcom.conf in /etc/modprobe.d/: blacklist b43 blacklist b43legacy blacklist bcm43xx blacklist ssb So I think the driver works and the blacklist - issue that is reported on different sites is ok. I then made an entry in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts: vi ifcfg-eth1 DEVICE="eth1" #BOOTPROTO="dhcp" HWADDR="94:39:e5:dc:3a:cf" NM_CONTROLLED="yes" ONBOOT="yes" TYPE=Wireless *The problem is* I'm not seeing any wireless networks.

Linux hosts file /etc/hosts
by Jonathan Vomacka 08 Nov '11

08 Nov '11

Good afternoon Gentlemen, I have a question regarding /etc/hosts for CentOS 6 x64. I already have a hostname set on my server, however there are 10 additional IP aliases assigned to the box, one which I plan to use as a mail server. The mail server will be serving mail for a completely different domain (different then the default hostname of my box). My question is this: If I take one of my additional IP addresses and bind it to postfix for mail, do I also have to specify the remote IP and mail server hostname in /etc/hosts? For example my hosts looks something like this 127.0.0.1 localhost Can I add? 66.x.x.x mail.foo.bar Is this even necessary?

redhat vs centos
by Bob Hoffman 08 Nov '11

08 Nov '11

I have been reading the threads on here with great ernest about redhat making a move to throw off centos compilations. I read some stories about microsoft wanting to work closer with centos http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/05/17/microsoft_and_centos/ I have to update to centos 6 due to some needs of clients who need newer mysql and php (and installing them on centos5 was too hard for me). I am thinking of going ubuntu server but at the same time I have this feeling centos team will pull through, make a new method to streamline this, and redhat will back down and stop being REDa$$-hats. Redhat thinks us 'freebie' people will move to them to get the quicker updates and releases. I look at the pricing and I say they must be out of their minds. The server comes at 1,999 a year for 2 sockets and more than 4 guests...which is what I would need. The virtualization package, which may or may not be needed is thousands more. All for one server. that ain't gonna happen. Personally I am thinking of staying away from all red hat clones due to redhat's actions for my own security. The only thing on the horizon I see is ubuntu server as best supported and up to date. I am teetering tonight. I have downloaded it and am thinking of wiping my new centos6 install and trying it out. How do you all feel about this turn of events and what is your gut feeling on where this is going? And how about them hard drive prices?!!

CentOS 6 yum Groupinstall vs Manual install
by Jonathan Vomacka 08 Nov '11

08 Nov '11

Gentlemen, I have a question regarding yum groupinstall vs just using yum install. I have been reading tutorials online (for example how to run a Centos LAMP). Most of the tutorials have examples to install httpd, mysql, etc using yum install httpd.... The reason for this e-mail is that I noticed in yum grouplist that there is an option to install Web Server, MySQL database server, etc. Question: Is there any advantage to using yum groupinstall for a webserver as opposed to using yum install httpd? I am just curious why most online docs dont mention groupinstall and only reference installing each app manually one by one. Any information would be appreciated
