HP OfficeJet Printing
by Chris Olson 02 Jan '16

02 Jan '16

There has been a bit of grumbling recently about HP printer capability in one of our smallest prototyping Labs. We have a single GigE switch connecting a Windows 7 machine and a Dell/CentOS-6 machine. The CentOS machine also has connectivity via another network. Currently, only the Windows 7 machine has been setup for printing on our HP OfficeJet 8615. Our Samba effort on the CentOS system has not been successful so we use Cygwin and ftp to move files to the Windows 7 system for printing. Being able to print directly from the CentOS 6 system would be most convenient. Software supporting the HP OfficeJet Pro 8615 is apparently available as indicated in the links and other information below. We also see that hplip was apparently part of an installation or update performed on the CentOS 6 Dell machine at some point in time. http://sourceforge.net/projects/hplip/?source=typ_redirect http://hplipopensource.com/hplip-web/index.html The current version of the HPLIP solution is: 3.15.11. [user@dell ~]$ uname -a Linux dell 2.6.32-573.12.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Dec 15 21:19:08 2015\ x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [user@dell ~]$ [user@dell ~]$ rpm -qa hplip hplip-3.14.6-3.el6.x86_64 [user@dell ~]$ [user@dell ~]$ which hp-setup /usr/bin/hp-setup Using this open source software seems easy enough, but we have concerns about printing from the Windows 7 machine if the CentOS 6 system is setup for printing. Is there any significant possibility that printer setup or printer use on the CentOS 6 system will negatively impact printing functionality on the Windows 7 machine? Thanks in advance for any help or advice, and Happy New Year.

Centos 7, grub2-mkconfig, unsupported sector
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 02 Jan '16

02 Jan '16

Hi, folks, Well, I get back from vacation, and three CentOS 7 boxes didn't come up this morning (my manager and the other admin did the update & reboot). On these three - but *not* another one or two, and I don't think those others are Dells, they're supermicro's - the 327 kernel fell into the rdosshell, I guess. I finally got one the three up by going back to the 228.14 kernel. Now, after googling and finding the CentOS bugzilla, 0009860, that referenced the upstream bugzilla, I applied the workaround discussed in it, Adding initcall_blacklist=clocksource_done_booting to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX in /etc/default/grub and then grub2-mkconfig -o /etc/grub2.cfg" On one. On the other, that's got a *large* RAID appliance (a JetStor w/ 42 4TB drives...), it seemed to work... then gave me a dozen or so ERROR: unsupported sector size 4096 on /dev/sdd. ERROR: unsupported sector size 4096 on /dev/sde. 0. Did the grub2-mkconfig actually work correctly? 1. Is it safe to ignore the errors and reboot? 2. This seems to be an old bug in os-prober, that was fixed years ago - has it slipped back in? mark

NFS problem after 7.2
by Mark2015 01 Jan '16

01 Jan '16

I just updated my fileserver to version 7.2 and got some NFS problems after that. In /etc/exports I have the following line /path hostname(ro,insecure) Now that host can no longer mount that share. I get mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting x Also when I do restart of the NFS server I get following in the logs Dec 30 21:59:33 files systemd[1]: Starting NFS server and services... Dec 30 21:59:33 files nfsdcltrack[31076]: sqlite_query_reclaiming: unable to prepare select statement: no such column: has_session Dec 30 21:59:33 files polkitd[28879]: Unregistered Authentication Agent for unix-process:31032:12640806 (system bus name :1.635, object path /org/freedesktop/PolicyKit1/AuthenticationAgent, locale en_GB.UTF-8) (disconnected from bus) Dec 30 21:59:34 files nfsdcltrack[31412]: sqlite_insert_client: insert statement prepare failed: table clients has 2 columns but 3 values were supplied What to do?

CentOS 7, annoyances in the logs
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 31 Dec '15

31 Dec '15

Annoyances: 1. I'm seeing a lot of noise in the logfile for a workstation that I just built a couple months ago. One complaint is that Configuration file /usr/lib/systemd/system/ebtables.service is marked executable. Please remove executable permission bits. Proceeding anyway. *Should* anything named <servicename>.service have any permissions other than readable (and write for root)? 2. A lot of python: SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/NetworkManager from write access on the directory /sys.#012#012***** Plugin catchall (100. confidence) suggests **************************#012#012If you believe that NetworkManager should be allowed write access on the sys directory by default.#012Then you should report this as a bug.#012You can generate a local policy module to allow this access.#012Do#012allow this access for now by executing:#012# grep NetworkManager /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol#012# semodule -i mypol.pp#012 Which policy I implemented, but why is that incorrect in the first place? 3. Finally, the noisiest of all, NetworkManager[7723]: <warn> error requesting auth for org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.settings.modify.hostname: (0) Authorization check failed: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply: Message did not receive a reply (timeout by message bus) and for what seems like every possible network type NetworkMangler handles, including wifi, and I yum removed NetwoworkManager-wifi.... Anyone have any answers so I can shut this up? mark

Centos7 and clamd
by Robert Moskowitz 31 Dec '15

31 Dec '15

On my Centos6 mailserver (really Redsleeve6), I installed clamav and clamd (and lots more). I am working up to moving to Centos7 (really Centos7-arm), and no clamd. clamav is there. So is the clamd functions moved into clamav now or what do I do to get whatever clamd did for me? :) thanks

Systemd and systemd-sysv-generator
by Mike - st257 30 Dec '15

30 Dec '15

Hello CentOS List, I have a server that has SysV script supplied by a hardware manufacturer, which is not functioning properly. From my reading, systemd-sysv-generator should handle them (like it did for Dell OpenManage software which supplied SysV init scripts). /usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-sysv-generator Takes no or 3 arguments (it tells me), but I didn't find clear documentation on this binary. And no arguments doesn't seem to fix the issue. The particular software in question is LSI MegaRaid SNMP daemon. I retrieved the latest version from LSI's site which was provided for EL7. ~]# systemctl lsi_mrdsnmpd.service start Unknown operation 'lsi_mrdsnmpd.service'. ~]# service lsi_mrdsnmpd start Reloading systemd: [ OK ] Starting lsi_mrdsnmpd (via systemctl): Failed to start lsi_mrdsnmpd.service: Unit lsi_mrdsnmpd.service failed to load: No such file or directory.

Re: [CentOS] hostname service?

>The service you are referring to is hostnamed [1]. hostnamed is >designed to start on request and terminate after an idle period. >Programs on your computer are probably querying the service to >determine if your hostname has changed. I see that I couldn't previously find it with systemctl because it is a "static" service, neither enabled nor disabled. What is "static" really intended to mean here? The other static services seem to be boot-time related for the most part, eg anaconda, pvscan.... Man for hostnamectl (also new to me) indicates some potential uses for the hostnamed-maintained names, yet I see nothing obvious making use of that info. Can you give me an example?

Re-booting into CentOS-7.2 - advice sought
by Timothy Murphy 30 Dec '15

30 Dec '15

I have a remote home server updated to CentOS-7.2.1511 (as stated in /etc/redhat-release) but I have not re-booted since the update. The machine is currently running kernel 3.10.0-229.11.1.el7.x86_64. I'm wondering if anyone has advice on any safety steps I can take before re-booting, so that in the event of failure I can give simple instructions to my daughter at the other end on how to get the system running? Any suggestions gratefully received. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin

weird usb/sound problem on C7
by Fred Smith 30 Dec '15

30 Dec '15

I'm running C7, fully up to date. I'm also running the MATE desktop (from epel) though the original installation was Gnome. a couple weeks ago my USB headset worked as both earphones and mic. today when I plug it in I get nothing. right-clicking on the speaker icon in the upper panel I can choose "sound preferences" (as an aside, how can I figure out what program that actually is? it has no help or about option) and in the "Hardware" tab it shows several devices. One of them is the 'Plantronics C320' and it is listed as "Disabled". As far as I know I've done nothing to make it disabled, can anyone advise me how to UN-disable it? I can't figure it out... since this isn't windoze, I'm not in the habit of rebooting every time something weird happens, but I'm wondering if that's the practical solution for this, or not. thanks for any advice Fred PS: Oh, regarding what program it is, what appears to be the same program also exists in the menus from the top panel under System/Preferences/ Hardware/Sound. It still doesn't identify itself, but if I right-click on it and choose add launcher to desktp, I can then right-click on it, choose Properties, and see it is "mate-volume-control". I'll do some searching on that name for advice, and if I turn up anything I'll post it here. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Under no circumstances will I ever purchase anything offered to me as the result of an unsolicited e-mail message.

firewalld services
by Robert Moskowitz 29 Dec '15

29 Dec '15

I am familiar with using commands like: firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=http To enable firewalld services. I am also aware that this is through xml 'scripts' in: /usr/lib/firewalld/services/ But what I find interesting is what services are there and which are not. I went a'lookin with: grep "port=" /usr/lib/firewalld/services/*|more And found some like: http, https, imaps, smtp, and pop3s What I do not find are others that I would think are 'standard' like: pop3 (110) and imap (143) I can understand 587 not being included, but imap? I can always just add them with: firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=587/tcp But I want to use the standard files. Perhaps because they are there. Have I missed how some are handled? thanks

Perl DBI 1.52 on el6
by Erick Ocrospoma 28 Dec '15

28 Dec '15

Hello guys, I was told by the client to install Perl DBI version 1.52 on a el6 box, by default el6 branch comes with DBI version 1.6x, this version is AFAIK not the desired one. First I tried installing DBI 1.52 from some rpm package [1], which had some dependencies, Perl 5.8.8 and dbd.4.4.x, this last package was also present el6, so it made conflict and it was not possible to install DBI 1.52 from a rpm. Then, I downloaded version 1.52 [2], and tried to compiled it, but it failed while doing the make test. I'm not sure if it is not a problem, because while doing make, it did not show error/failure messages. Finally, it seems I'd have to compile Perl 5.8.8 by hand, and then try to add DBI module also. Is this possible to install it safely and make it coexist with default Perl version (5.10.1) in el6 ? I'm also writing to DBI user list, about make test failure messages. But maybe, I guess, it is failing because it is not supported by Perl 5.10.1 and Perl 5.8.8 does. No clue about this, in my opinion it should compile with Perl 5.10.1 Regards. -- Erick. --- IRC : zerick Blog : http://zerick.me About : http://about.me/zerick Linux User ID : 549567

Hi all, I've been googling for this for a day now and I can't seem to find a coherent structured way to build a fiber channel storage box where CentOS 6.7 is used both at the fiber channel target and initiator ends. My Brocade HBA:s are installed and the driver loads just fine in both boxes. Any ideas, pointers or URL:s are more than welcome. Thanks, Joacim

CentOS 7 pcp-pmda-nvidia-gpu SELinux problems
by David O'Shea 28 Dec '15

28 Dec '15

Hi all, I installed Performance Co-Pilot 3 days ago, and installed the nVidia PMDA according to the instructions at https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/ht… and was able to view metrics about my video card using pmchart. I then played around a little with the lmsensors PMDA (but it doesn't look too useful to me - it doesn't support my sensors, and I think it's for a 2.x kernel). After not looking at PCP at all for a few days, today I tried using pmchart to look at the nVidia metrics again but they were unavailable, and after checking /var/log/messages I found SELinux complaints. After a few iterations of the suggested 'grep pmdanvidia /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M [...]', 'semodule -i [...].pp', restarting the PCP service, getting new SELinux errors, going back to step 1, I ended up with this content in the .te file: """ module doshea-selinux-pcp-pmda-nvidia-gpu 1.0; require { type xserver_misc_device_t; type pcp_pmcd_t; class capability sys_admin; class chr_file { read write ioctl open }; } #============= pcp_pmcd_t ============== allow pcp_pmcd_t self:capability sys_admin; #!!!! This avc is allowed in the current policy allow pcp_pmcd_t xserver_misc_device_t:chr_file { read write ioctl open }; """ I don't get why this worked 3 days ago and not today. I haven't installed many packages in the meantime. Should I file a bug somewhere about this? I don't know much about SELinux - I have a slight ability to edit those .te files and I think I remember what to do with them afterwards - but it seems like the sys_admin capability is pretty significant to be granting. Is there any way to work out why that's needed? Thanks in advance, David

KDE Dying Overnight After Centos 7 Upgrade
by pro alias 27 Dec '15

27 Dec '15

On two blades both with Atom Processors but different Graphics chips (a Matrox WPCM450 on one, Intel 82945Gon the other). One machine had distorted video and required logging out of KDE and then back again. The other one had no video and required ssh from another box to restart X remotely (which I didn't think I should be able to do). Does anyone else see problems with KDE ( or X) after the upgrade? I'm not getting any obvious error messages, but my gut level says it is a problem with X rather than KDE. I haven't had the time to troubleshoot this properly, but when (if) it happens tomorrow I will see what I can find.

Centos7 poblems with dnssec-keygen
by Robert Moskowitz 24 Dec '15

24 Dec '15

I am reading: https://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Deployment_Guide-en-US/s1-bind-rndc.html I have bind installed and default config running. I have not applied my customizations yet. The first step I am taking is getting rndc.key created. So reading the guide I am trying to run (while logged in as root, and in /etc): dnssec-keygen -a hmac-md5 -b 256 -n HOST rndc.key The system is just sitting there and doing nothing. I have sshed as another session and do not see any processing being done by dnssec-keygen. Has anyone else done this? Am I doing things in the right order? If it works for others, then there is something wrong with my setup...

CentOS 7.2 installer missing virt-what
by Chris Adams 24 Dec '15

24 Dec '15

In previous CentOS releases, virt-what was included in the install image. This made it easy for me to spin a custom ISO with my package set and a kickstart that would add open-vm-tools or ovirt-guest-agent as appropriate (when installing the respective guest environments). I updated my ISO to 7.2, and virt-what is nowhere to be found. I assume this is copied from RHEL; anybody know any explanation? For now, I'm falling back to matching strings in /sys/class/dmi/id/product_name. Is there some better way to determine what (if any) virtual environment the installer is running under? -- Chris Adams <linux(a)cmadams.net>

Network configuration issue with second public ip on CentOS 6
by Meikel 24 Dec '15

24 Dec '15

Hi folks, I have a server at Soyoustart.com (which is a brand of OVH). I run CentOS 6.7 and have problems with network configuration. I want to add a second public ip (failover ip) to the server and did follow the instructions in the CentOS-section of http://hilfe.ovh.de/AdministrationIpAliasHinzufuegen After executing the required steps I'm not able to reach the host via the second ip from an external host. I tried it with ping and with ssh commands. Here the content of the config files (I anonymized the server ip with xx.xx.xx.xx and the failover ip with yy.yy.yy.yy): $ cat /etc/sysconfig/network NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=<name-of-my-host> NOZEROCONF=true GATEWAY=xx.xx.xx.254 $ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=xx.xx.xx.xx NETMASK=255.255.255.0 ONBOOT=yes GATEWAY=xx.xx.xx.254 $ cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0:0 DEVICE=eth0:0 BOOTPROTO=static IPADDR=yy.yy.yy.yy NETMASK=255.255.255.255 ONBOOT=yes When I restart the network I get a message (two times) saying "RTNETLINK answers: Operation not supported". $ service network restart Schnittstelle eth0 beenden: [ OK ] Loopback-Schnittstelle beenden: [ OK ] Loopback-Schnittstelle hochfahren: [ OK ] Schnittstelle eth0 hochfahren: Determining if ip address xx.xx.xx.xx is already in use for device eth0...

Just to be sure that there isn't an issue with the firewall I did "service iptables stop" and ran the "ping" and "ssh" commands again with the same result. For ip xx.xx.xx.xx it works, but not for yy.yy.yy.yy. Not sure if this is important, just in case it matters, some additional information: IPv6 is disabled by kernel parameter "ipv6.disable=1" in /etc/grub.conf The two mac addresses I see for eth0 and eth0:0 with the "ifconfig" command are the same. In the OVH/Soyoustart.com GUI I created a virtual mac for the failover ip, I'm not sure if that virtual mac should come into play somewhere? $ uname -a Linux <name-of-my-host> 2.6.32-573.12.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Dec 15 21:19:08 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux $ LANG="" route Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface xx.xx.xx.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0 default vss-gw-6k.fr.eu 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 Why is yy.yy.yy.yy not reachable from outside? What am I doing wrong or what can I do to narrow down the problem? Regards, Meikel

C7 apache file access
by Robert Moskowitz 24 Dec '15

24 Dec '15

Pulling out what little hair I have here, but stumbled onto a possible problem. I have a server running C6 apache that is set up with personal directories and no problem showing the files.

Starting stunnel on boot with CentOS7
by Leroy Tennison 24 Dec '15

24 Dec '15

The stunnel package doesn't come with an init script and systemctl doesn't list it as a service I recognize, I guess I could put it in /etc/rd.d/rc.local or create a script in /etc/rc.d/init.d but thought I'd ask before creating my own solution.

Recovering LVM after crash
by Emmanuel Noobadmin 23 Dec '15

23 Dec '15

I've been trying to cover data from a disk that appeared to had been corrupted after a power outage. The original setup was lvm on md raid 1 which appears to be what is complicating the issue. Apart from /boot, everything was on LVM partitions so I don't have any backup lvm information. Following various guides online, I've recreated duplicated the raid partition with dd onto a new disk, recreated the raid 1 array with missing device, but the pv cannot be found. I've tried to find the lvm uuid using this guide https://www.howtoforge.com/recover_data_from_raid_lvm_partitions but despite dumping twice the data to file, there are no plain text configuration information. The drives are not encrypted so that isn't likely to be the problem. I also used testdisk to try to recover the partitions but it says they cannot be recovered. During analysis, it was able to detect the lvm partitions, extracted output: Linux LVM 1069 146 38 60799 228 29 959567608 Linux 1069 179 7 57740 22 10 910409728 Linux 790 66 45 59780 237 33 947685112 Linux 1069 179 7 57740 22 10 910409728 Linux 29283 103 5 85953 201 8 910409728 Linux 29292 181 10 85963 24 13 910409728 The numbers are start CHS, end CHS and size in sectors. There seems to be way more possible partitions than there should be, possibly results of previous LV resizing. With only such data left, is there any possible way to reconstruct the PV/VG/LV without the uuid and recover data?

Likely the case if you recently updated to 7.2 as others have reported the same thing. You can try to perform a manual download and install, thus bypassing the whole SSL mess, and see if that works. Quoting from the Calibre website: http://calibre-ebook.com/download_linux Manual binary install or reverting to a previous version If you wish to revert to an earlier calibre release or download a calibre upgrade manually, download the tarball of that release from here (choose the 32-bit or 64-bit version, as appropriate).

Centos7 Raspberry Pi 2 Login

Folks I'm not sure this is the right mailing list for the Centos7 port to Raspberry Pi. On the chance that this is the right place... I just booted the Centos Linux 7 for Raspbery Pi 2, but have no idea what the built-in accounts or passwords are. I've tried user: pi password: raspberry and user: root password: password to no avail. Does anyone know? Is there a HOW-TO file with helpful information? Thanks David

Lustre 2.7.0
by Ben Archuleta 22 Dec '15

22 Dec '15

Hello All, I need to get a Lustre 2.7.0 system running from scratch and I was wondering if anyone knows what the most current version of CentOS with Lustre support is server-wise. As I poke around the documentation it looks like CentOS 6.3, 6.4, and possibly 6.5 are supported. Regards, Ben J. Archuleta Systems Staff Center for Advanced Research Computing (CARC)

CentOS and typical usage
by Alice Wonder 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

I share some of the frustration with Fedora developers "not listening" but I don't share all of the frustration. As far as customizing CentOS / Fedora for server vs desktop vs laptop vs whatever, to me that is a moot issue. In the server environment you almost certainly are using a virtual machine, and to use a virtual machine you create an image. Set up the image how you want and be done with it, you can then deploy it thousands of times and it is set up the way you need it. I typically use the default image provided by Linode - it is a good image for a server, just remember to install the yum-cron package and enable the firewall. I was one of the systemd haters initially but now I don't have an issue with it. Yes it is different than what I learned, but once I stopped yelling at the kids to get off my damn lawn, it wasn't that hard to figure out what I needed to do to get systemd to work for me instead of me working against it. Gnome is the only place where I have serious issue with the direction Fedora is going. I loved Gnome 2 but hate Gnome 3 with a passion. I tried to love it, but I just can't. They took away my vertical scroll bars. I understand most people scroll with a mouse wheel, but it is really hard to do that from my T series thinkpads. The solution they gave me in the forums involved needing to write some CSS stuff - no gui checkbox, I had to create a CSS file. And even that didn't fully work, some applications still didn't have scroll bars. Apparently that's because they weren't "ported" to the newer gtk or something. But if that's the case, where adding the CSS won't bring the scroll thing back, then they shouldn't lose it. Fonts - they look horrible to me in Gnome 3 and no setting I could figure out made them look good. Graphics - moving stuff around the desktop really taxed my built-in video, what use to be smooth was often choppy, especially on my Thinkpad T410. Totem - for the life of me I couldn't figure out how to get it to not be full screen. Switched to mate and all those issues instantly went away. Gnome3 I think is an area where the Fedora developers are refusing to listen, but that isn't really an issue because they do package Mate and Mate is in EPEL so I can install it in CentOS and be done with it. But things like systemd, wireless drivers, etc. - there, I don't think there is a good argument because it is easy to set up a system and make an image that you then use as your base for creating new VMs for the server. As someone who uses CentOS on the desktop quite a bit, I am glad that RHEL / CentOS does pay attention to the needs of use desktop users. I use to use CentOS on the server and Fedora on the desktop, and then, RHEL/CentOS as a server OS made sense to me. But Fedora is too bleeding edge for my liking now, and CentOS is the Linux distribution I recommend for desktop use. So no, I don't think it should target servers at the expense of the desktop users. Just my two cents, don't mean to stir the pot, just giving my opinion.

CentOS-7.2 USB stick problem
by Timothy Murphy 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

I've installed CentOS-7-x86_64-LiveKDE-1503.iso and CentOS-7-x86_64-LiveKDE-1511.iso on two USB sticks. The first boots up in 90 seconds, but the second takes almost 7 minutes. (I'm talking about the time until my laptop becomes usable.) After 5 minutes a small window comes up saying it cannot save bookmarks because it does not have permission in the required directory. I assume the delay is a timeout, perhaps due to SELinux? Once it has started up it seems to run properly. I wondered if anyone else has encountered this? I'll try installing the minimal version of CentOS-7.2 on the USB stick and see if that is better. -- Timothy Murphy gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin

Centos DVD -
by Bob Goodwin 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

I have been trying to run Centos 6 and 7 in virtualbox on this Fedora23 computer. Actually I also tried Scientific Linux and a DVD copy of Fedora 21 XFCE Live that I had on hand. The Fedora21 works as expected but I seem to be missing something in Centos and Scientific Linux. They boot and run with a text screen but startx reports "command not found" and a ping to other than localhost, reports network unreachable. So I assume I am missing something. The virtualbox version is 5.0.10 r104061. And Centos was downloaded a few days ago and should be the latest available. Any help is appreciated, Bob -- Bob Goodwin - Zuni, Virginia, USA http://www.qrz.com/db/W2BOD box10 FEDORA-23/64bit LINUX XFCE POP3

What might be my options to understand upstream's reasoning for this change and any possible workaround?

Dealing with MS Outlook winmail.dat on Linux mail server
by Valeri Galtsev 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

Dear All, Does someone do anything on your Linux (or UNIX) mail servers to convert darn proprietary MS Outlook winmail.dat attachments your users may receive (occasionally if lucky) into readable e-mail format. I know quick answer to my question (good quick answer would probably be: just trash them). Still, being involuntarily immersed into corporate world (even at Educational institution), I'd like to know what clever and wise people do. I can refer my users to some free online converters and get over with that. The only thing that makes me think about potentially investing more effort into dealing with this garbage is: google mail just seamlessly shows users such e-mails with all contents. And I'm really reluctant to quietly outsource services we were providing on our servers to google. Thanks in advance for all your advises and input.

boost-openmpi problems in 7.2
by Pete Biggs 21 Dec '15

After the 7.2 upgrade boost-openmpi-1.53.0-25 was installed, along with openmpi-1.10.0-10. The old openmpi was then replaced with compat- openmpi16-1.6.4-10. All fine. Except boost-openmpi has a dependency on the old libmpi.so.1 and the new openmpi has libmpi.so.12: # ldd libboost_mpi-mt.so.1.53.0 linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007ffe8c182000) libboost_serialization-mt.so.1.53.0 => /lib64/libboost_serialization-mt.so.1.53.0 (0x00007f39da4d2000) libmpi.so.1 => not found libmpi_cxx.so.1 => /usr/lib64/openmpi/lib/libmpi_cxx.so.1 (0x00007f39da2b6000) librt.so.1 => /lib64/librt.so.1 (0x00007f39da0ae000) libstdc++.so.6 => /lib64/libstdc++.so.6 (0x00007f39d9da5000) libm.so.6 => /lib64/libm.so.6 (0x00007f39d9aa3000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007f39d988d000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib64/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f39d9670000) libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x00007f39d92af000) libmpi.so.12 => /usr/lib64/openmpi/lib/libmpi.so.12 (0x00007f39d8fcc000) libopen-rte.so.12 => /usr/lib64/openmpi/lib/libopen-rte.so.12 (0x00007f39d8d4f000) libopen-pal.so.13 => /usr/lib64/openmpi/lib/libopen-pal.so.13 (0x00007f39d8aac000) libdl.so.2 => /lib64/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f39d88a8000) libutil.so.1 => /lib64/libutil.so.1 (0x00007f39d86a4000) libhwloc.so.5 => /lib64/libhwloc.so.5 (0x00007f39d8476000) /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f39da987000) libnuma.so.1 => /lib64/libnuma.so.1 (0x00007f39d8269000) libpciaccess.so.0 => /lib64/libpciaccess.so.0 (0x00007f39d805f000) libxml2.so.2 => /lib64/libxml2.so.2 (0x00007f39d7cf6000) libz.so.1 => /lib64/libz.so.1 (0x00007f39d7adf000) liblzma.so.5 => /lib64/liblzma.so.5 (0x00007f39d78ba000) We have tried switching to using compat-openmpi - but then the programs don't find the boost library. There are other ways around it (setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable or putting in symlinks so things are found), but they seem to throw segfaults with the code. Presumably this is just a packaging/compiling error - is there anyway to trigger an update for the boost-openmpi package? Pete

"installation source" specification for netinstall
by ken 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

Trying to specify the "installation source" in the configuration of netinstall for centos 7 (7.1). Three places on the web said mirror.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64/ But that configuration page probes, then it says, "Error setting up base repository". What's the magic needed? Also, if anyone knows specs for epel and others, they might help too. Thanks.

Supermicro CentOS 7 install failure
by dsavage＠peaknet.net 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

My workhorse server is a SuperMicro with their H8DM8-2 motherboard. For many years it ran CentOS 5.x and 6.x until the boot drive failed last year. I installed a 1TB SSD as /dev/sda and planned to install CentOS 7 on it, replacing CentOS 6.5 on the failed drive. Unfortunately every CentOS 7 media I tried, either optical disk or USB thumb drive, breaks down just a few seconds after selecting "Install..." The H8DM8-2 motherboard is based on the nVidia MPC55 Pro and NEC uPD720400 chipsets. It has an on-board Adaptec AIC-7902W dual-channel SCSI controller and companion Zero-Channel RAID card. It has twin AMD Opteron HE processors and 32GB of registered ECC DDR2 memory. The RAID array is populated with ten Fujitsu 300GB 15K SCSI3 drives. I took it into a friendly Linux shop where they reviewed / verified all of my work and confirmed the boot-time problem. Two hours into the effort, my friend plugged in a bootable Windows 10 thumb drive and to our amazement, it came up very normally. So did another thumb drive with a Fedora 23 installation image. So there's nothing wrong with my hardware. We believe the problem is due to Red Hat compiling RHEL7 without at least one old device driver that I still need. My friend thinks we should build an installation disk from a modified CentOS 7 live CD kickstart file and a CentOS-Plus kernel. While that may work, I think there may be a simpler boot-time kernel option I could use to successfully install from a stock ISO. Does anyone have any suggestions for boot-time options I could try? --Doc Savage Fairview Heights, IL

yum/RPM and Trust on First Use
by Alice Wonder 21 Dec '15

21 Dec '15

I'm not on the yum / RPM list and I don't know that I want to join just to discuss this but with respect GPG keys - it is a classic example of trust on first use. The first time yum installs a package, it asks to import the GPG key used to sign the packages. Most people accept without validating the key. This is potentially exploitable because most repositories are http What if there was a DNS TXT record that corresponds with the repository, with the fingerprint of the key? The DNS record could be DNSSEC secured (I believe Fedora already uses DNSSEC - some of their servers anyway) and yum could refuse to ask if the fingerprint of the key it is importing does not match the DNSSEC secured fingerprint. Something like TXT record for _rpmkey.security.centos.org. could be requested for the fingerprint for security(a)centos.org Advantage over gpg keyrings is that it can be implemented by anyone without needing to manage your keys with specific gpg keyrings, which has always been messy. When yum is first asked to import a key, it refuses if it can not DNSSEC validate the fingerprint. After it DNSSEC validates the fingerprint, it can then does what it currently does, where the user can verify they trust the key. To get a fingerprint in the centos.org zone and signed by DNSSEC would not be easy for a malicious packager to do. Furthermore when a signing key has been compromised (happened with Fedora once) changing the DNS record would prevent the key from being imported in the future, and could even prevent packages signed by that key from being installed in the future even if the key is already imported. For offline yum usage, a switch could be used to tell yum not to do the DNS lookup and DNSSEC validation. Thoughts?

Power Management
by Chris Olson 20 Dec '15

20 Dec '15

Recent power management discussions plugged into one of our current frustrations, namely the interaction of the screen lock and power-save features on Intel/CentOS 6 platforms. We certainly would not have guessed that locking the screen would inhibit going into the power-save mode, but it sure seems to do exactly that on some of our test platforms. If one leaves the desktop idle for the timeout period, the computer sleeps. If one locks the screen and then leaves the machine idle, the computer does not sleep. We were hoping that this "feature" was isolated to just our older Dell desktop machine hardware and firmware, but it appears elsewhere as well. Possibly more interesting is that most of our systems were loaded with CentOS 6.X almost two years ago and have been updated at least weekly ever since. This new power-save scenario has appeared just within the last three weeks,and our investigations have not discovered the cause ora solution.
