CentOS 7 - Limiting rescue kernel imeges
by Luigi Rosa 24 Aug '15

24 Aug '15

In order to keep only 3 kernel images on a CentOS 7 I edited /etc/yum.conf and I put installonly_limit=3 This parameter works for standard kernel images, but does not work for rescue images: $ ls -al /boot/vmlinuz* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5027376 May 13 20:46 /boot/vmlinuz-0-rescue-2554e2ffad84452bb07401bed0a61089 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 3084288 Jun 27 06:42 /boot/vmlinuz-0-rescue-2be43759d5354c5a84125dea5b4a02ab -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5029136 Mar 18 05:18 /boot/vmlinuz-0-rescue-3871136569fb49cb934a276af5e09b32 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5029008 Mar 31 19:54 /boot/vmlinuz-0-rescue-ca5579e88a014362836fa90f4aa34248 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5029744 Aug 6 16:31 /boot/vmlinuz-0-rescue-e2ae4db2b909488088e78ac4064661d2 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5029744 Aug 6 03:15 /boot/vmlinuz-3.10.0-229.11.1.el7.x86_64 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5027376 May 13 12:15 /boot/vmlinuz-3.10.0-229.4.2.el7.x86_64 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 5029200 Jun 24 00:15 /boot/vmlinuz-3.10.0-229.7.2.el7.x86_64 Is there a way to keep rescue images within a certain limit?

Host does not respond to nmap
by Mark LaPierre 24 Aug '15

24 Aug '15

Hey Y'all, I just set up a new old machine on my network. I did a net install of CentOS 6.7 on it replacing an outdated copy of Win XP. Of course I'm now in the throws of configuring the machine to be a useful member of society. [mlapier@peach ~]$ nmap -sn 192.168.15.0/24 Starting Nmap 5.51 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2015-08-23 20:12 EDT Nmap scan report for 192.168.15.1 Host is up (0.00043s latency).

I spent a good part of the day trying to connect the FAHControl on my machine to the Folding@Home client on 192.168.15.107 without success. Maybe the reason why 192.168.15.107 does not appear on the nmap output has something to do with my lack of success connecting the control to the client. Maybe not. I'm not having any problem connecting to the FAH client on 192.168.15.105 from my machine. I even copied the FAH configuration file from 192.168.15.105 to 192.168.15.107 and then restarted the client. Still no joy in Mudville. I figure I should quit while I'm behind. Anyone have any suggestions? -- _ °v° /(_)\ ^ ^ Mark LaPierre Registered Linux user No #267004 https://linuxcounter.net/ ****

Make USB bootable drive: Rufus
by Bill Maltby (C4B) 23 Aug '15

23 Aug '15

Had seen various folks ask about how to do this (I did mine long ago and far away to make my Windows machine dual-bootable to Win or CentOS) and while looking for some HD repair diagnostics, ran across this and thought it may be useful to some folks. http://rufus.akeo.ie/ I've not yet used it, but it looks easy. YMMV, of course, as may mine! :-) Bill

rpmbuild dwz error
by Andrew Neuschwander 22 Aug '15

22 Aug '15

CentOS, I'm not sure where to ask this, please let me know if there is a more appropriate place. On CentOS 7, I'm building a large C++ package with rpmbuild. Arachne (https://www.broadinstitute.org/crd/wiki/index.php/Arachne_Main_Page) During the debuginfo extraction stage, I get the following error: + /usr/lib/rpm/find-debuginfo.sh --strict-build-id -m --run-dwz --dwz-low-mem-die-limit 10000000 --dwz-max-die-limit 110000000 /home/andrew/rpmbuild/BUILD/arachne-46233 dwz: Multifile temporary files too large cpio: /builddir/build/BUILD/glibc-2.17-c758a686/math: Cannot stat: No such file or directory cpio: arachne-46233/src/Calculator.cc: Cannot stat: No such file or directory cpio: arachne-46233/src/Calculator.y: Cannot stat: No such file or directory 36150 blocks rpmbuild/dwz appear to be using /var/tmp for large temporary debug info files.

Hello Everyone, We have centos6 server. And we are planning to upgrade it to Centos7.And GRUB 2 needs a new bios grub partition. Creating a new partition is too much risky. I am wondering if it is possible to replace Grub2 with Grub legacy on Centos7 machine? Thanks!! Sachin

fsck mdraid root partition
by Bowie Bailey 20 Aug '15

20 Aug '15

There are some errors on my root filesystem, so I need to fsck it. In order to do this while the filesystem is unmounted, I'm booting from the install disk. However, since the filesystem is on an mdraid device, I'm not sure of the right way to get it assembled so I can check it. If I do, mdadm --examine --scan, then I get this: ARRAY /dev/md/2 metadata=... (and others, but I'm only interested in md2 at this point) It shows as /dev/md/2, while it is called /dev/md2 if I boot into the OS. If I do this: mdadm --assemble --scan /dev/md/2 I assume it will assemble it. Is it going to cause and problems assembling it under a different name in order to run the fsck? Should I rather force it to have the same name like this: mdadm --assemble /dev/md2 /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 if that will even work? Thanks, -- Bowie

"UMask=0002" ignored in httpd service file
by Dennis Jacobfeuerborn 20 Aug '15

20 Aug '15

Hi, I'm trying to get Apache httpd to create new files with the group writable bit set and thought adding the directive "UMask=0002" to the service section of the service file would be enough (after copying it to /etc/systemd/system). But after a systemctl daemon-reload followed by a service restart files are still created as "-rw-r--r--" instead of the expected "-rw-rw-r--". Does anyone have an idea what is missing here or how I can debug why the directive is apparently ignored? Regards, Dennis

TLS for all CentOS websites but not for smtp?

20 Aug '15

Hello everybody, I just got the email about the enforcing of HTTPS for the CentOS Websites which I really appreciate: „The CentOS Project infra team has decided to implement TLS wherever we can (…)” Does anybody know if and when mail.centos.org will be able to deliver its mails with STARTTLS? There seems to be no support for STARTTLS at all: $: openssl s_client -connect mail.centos.org:25 -starttls smtp (…) didn't found starttls in server response, try anyway...

20 Aug '15

HI, Is the CentOS 7 PV kernel available? I installed latest CentOS 7 & I found out that it is a HVM guest. So, if we wanted to have CentOS PV guest for CentOS 7, is there any specific steps to follow? or the same kernel will work as both PV & HVM? -- Thanks & Regards, Venkateswara Rao Dokku.

Fwd: ABRT Daemon/sosreport disaster
by Robert Inder 20 Aug '15

20 Aug '15

On Sunday, I did a "yum update" which installed kernel 2.6.32-573.3.1.el6.i686 on half a dozen virtual machines running CentOS 6.7. Since then, two of them have gone into "meltdown", and started spewing "ABRT Daemon" emails: one on Tuesday, and one tonight. The machines have a very light workload -- one runs "trac", and a handful of development systems, for a small team of developers. The other is primarily a git repository. So, aside from housekeeping jobs, both machines are more-or-less idle. Both machines generated SEVERAL HUNDRED "ABRT Daemon: a crash has been detected again" email messages in something over an hour. (That said, one of the two machines sent a (single) "crash detected": it had the same "missing module" error message, but only one message was generated) I include a sample message below. When I logged on to the machines when they were in "mailing frenzy", the only processes that "top" showed me using any CPU were "sosreport" and "abrtdaemon". They seemed to be vying for "top spot". In each case, I rebooted the machine, and all is now calm. But I am worried that it will affect other, more "visible" ideas. So, Q1: Is this a known problem? Q2: And how do I stop this happening again? Roll back to a previous version of something? Disable abrt? What?

Optimum Block Size to use
by Jatin Davey 19 Aug '15

19 Aug '15

Hi All We use CentOS 6.6 for our application. I have profiled the application and find that we have a heavy requirement in terms of Disk writes. On an average when our application operates at a certain load i can observe that the disk writes / second is around 2 Mbps (Average). The block size set is 4k ******************* [root@localhost ~]# blockdev --getbsz /dev/sda3 4096 ******************* OS , Kernel Version: ***************** [root@localhost ~]# uname -a Linux localhost 2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Oct 15 04:27:16 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [root@localhost ~]# cat /etc/*release CentOS release 6.6 (Final) CentOS release 6.6 (Final) CentOS release 6.6 (Final) ***************** File-System being used: ******************** [root@localhost ~]# df -T Filesystem Type 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/sda3 ext3 100934056 20298152 75508688 22% / /dev/sda1 ext3 198337 34459 153638 19% /boot tmpfs tmpfs 16440152 0 16440152 0% /dev/shm ********************* I have a few queries with respect to the block size being set in the system: 1. Is 4k the optimum block size considering the amount of writes / second the application performs ? 2. How do i find out the optimum block size given the application load in terms of reads / writes per second ? 3. If there is a better block size that i can use , Can you suggest one ? 4. What are the pros / Cons of changing the default block size ? 5. We use ext3 as the file system for the partition which has heavy writes per second , Should we migrate it to ext4 ? Any pros / cons for it ? Appreciate any response / pointers in this regard. Thanks Jatin

shared memory - shmmax - shmall - page_size
by Michael H 19 Aug '15

19 Aug '15

Hi List, I'm tuning up a new database server and I'm finding very mixed information online. Here are the default shmmax and shmall from my new system cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax 4294967295 cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmall 268435456 SHMALL is close enough to being SHMMAX / 16. Now, everything I'm finding online tells me that SHMALL = SHMMAX / PAGE_SIZE. default page size is 4096. Has something changed in this calculation? should the defaults be set on SHMALL = SHMMAX / 16?? I'm running CentOS Linux release 7.1.1503 (Core), my old database is running CentOS release 6.6 (Final) and I'm seeing the same calculations there too. Can somebody please point me in the right direction, I've had a look at pgtune here http://pgtune.leopard.in.ua/, I will not be using the 'default' calculated configuration that it suggests but I noticed the shmall = shmmax / page_size (4096). I'll benchmark with both calculations but I would really appreciate some confirmation on this. thanks Michael

Converting HVM to PV kernel CentOS7
by Venkateswara Rao Dokku 19 Aug '15

19 Aug '15

Hi, I have installed CentOS 7 HVM kernel. I would like to convert it to CentOs 7 PV kernel. When googled about it, I found that this can be done by following commands yum install xen or yum install kernel-xen But, when I tried the below commands, I am getting the error *"No package kernel-xen available.**"* What am I missing here. Any help is much appreciated. -- Thanks & Regards, Venkateswara Rao Dokku.

how do I stop automount of Hitichi Lifestudio USB drive
by Michael Hennebry 19 Aug '15

19 Aug '15

Most of the time, if I plug a USB drive into my computer, gnome/centos/whatever will ask me what I want to do with it. With a Hitachi Lifestudio, all the partitions mount without asking me. How do I stop that behavior? My suspicion is that the same kind of mechanism is what makes candy drops work. So far as I know, my backup drive is not candy, but I would still like to be able to control my computer. -- Michael hennebry(a)web.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu "SCSI is NOT magic.

initial setup of centos linux 7 core license information license not accepted
by Dave Burns 18 Aug '15

18 Aug '15

Did all this happen because I switched monitors? Or because I did all my setup over ssh? Otherwise, this is an FYI for other newbies who get confused by this like I did. Yesterday I set up a new centos 7 install, did updates, made all the config tweaks I like to make, and rebooted at the end to see if it would start up properly. No problem. (I logged in as the single user to see if it worked but did *nothing* as that user and did the rest of my work over the network via ssh.) This morning I shut it down and moved to a different location with a *different monitor.* During boot, it stopped with the following on the screen: After [ OK ] Started D-Bus System Message Bus. ==================================================== ==================================================== Initial setup of CentOS 7 (Core) 1) [!] License information (License not accepted) Please make your choice from above ['q' to quit | 'c' to continue | 'r' to refresh]: My caffeine-deprived response was to try q, c, and r, none of which got me unstuck. Forced to actually use my brain, I typed 1. More confusing text appeared, and I finally understood that in order to accept the license I must type 2. Then I had to type 1 again for some reason. Then my machine booted. It is probably apparent that I wouldn't have all this text to email you if the process had been as smooth as described. I have elided a certain amount of cursing and hair-pulling as unnecessary and embarrassing detail. I am curious as to the cause of the timing of this interruption. An attempt at a helpful suggestion: I am assuming that in some other circumstance, I might have more than one problem presented to me to deal with at the same time using this interface. I should think that the prompt should read like this: Please choose the number of the item above that you wish to try to fix, 'q' to quit and shut down, 'c' to continue booting, or 'r' if you are unable to read this text (or wish to petition the gods for mercy). cheers, Dave

C5 recent openssl update breaks mysql SSL connection
by tony＠softins.co.uk 18 Aug '15

18 Aug '15

I recently applied updates to a CentOS 5 box running MySQL. I've discovered that the new version of openssl, 0.9.8e-36.0.1.el5_11, breaks MySQL SSL connections. If I rename /lib/libssl.so.0.9.8e and replace it with the old version of that file from openssl-0.9.8e-27.el5_10.1 (not sure if that is the next oldest, but it was handy), then SSL connection to MySQL works again. I then performed cross-checks using the server with new libssl and the client with old, and then vice versa. What I found was that it didn't matter whether the server was started with the old libssl or the new libssl. In both cases, the mysql client would only connect using the old libssl, and not when using the new libssl. When it works with the old libssl, I can confirm that SSL is in use: mysql> \s -------------- mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.95, for redhat-linux-gnu (i386) using readline 5.1 Connection id: 2 Current database: Current user: root@localhost SSL: Cipher in use is DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA The error with the new libssl looks like this: [root@hostname ~]# mysql ERROR 2026 (HY000): SSL connection error Has anyone else come across this? Is it a bug in SSL? Or a new restriction? Do I need to regenerate my certificates using the new openssl?

persistent change of max_stack_depth

Hi All, Could anybody point me in the right direction for setting the kernel parameter, max_stack_depth, to 10240 for database tuning? I have currently set it by running 'ulimit -s 10240' but this does not survive a reboot. I've Googled plenty and can't find any solution, thanks Michael

Shared folders with Centos-7 guest in VMware-10 using open-vm-tools
by Bob Hepple 18 Aug '15

18 Aug '15

Hi! Just wondering if anyone has this working ... Centos-7 guest in VMware-10 host (on Windows-7 :-( ) Out of the box, shared folders and drag&drop do not work although X screen resolution sensing is fine (ie xrandr reports the resolution of the host screen as well as the peculiar screen options built-in) and I can Alt-Enter to full screen quite happily. I tried Fedora-22 too but did not even get that far. It's the shared folder that I would really like to get working. vmware- hgfsclient reports my share but there is no /mnt/hgfs directory. Also 'lsmod|grep hgfs' reports nothing. 'systemctl restart vmtoolsd' (bah!) does not help. Thanks Bob

additional X11 issues with CentOS 6.7
by Kay Schenk 17 Aug '15

17 Aug '15

OK, I need to start with a basic "dumb" question. What named xorg version does my package version 1.15 correspond to? X11R7.? Currently, I'm having some bad flicker problems I didn't experience previously. I have an old old radeon graphics card and note that the ati driver was updated with 6.7. This loads for X before the radeon module. I didn't find any release notes pertaining to this specifically. Can someone point me to information on the ati module changes. -- -------------------------------------------- MzK “The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” --Lao Tzu

I would be cautious about using it on production servers, but it seems to be behaving itself for me. https://librelamp.com/ I packaged it to install in parallel with OpenSSL rather than replace it. Apache (2.4.16), MariaDB (5.5.45) and PHP (5.6.12) complete the lamp stack. With MariaDB I did have to disable six tests in the make test section that were SSL related, I haven't investigated them yet to see if legitimate test failures or not. My main interest with LibreSSL is public facing servers. I have no interest in replacing things like authconfig. I have noticed that some of the switches the /usr/bin/openssl command accepts are not accepted by libressl, some of that may be configuration file related - it is hard to tell because the openssl.1 man page is extremely sparse. But the LibreSSL equivalent is packages as /usr/bin/libressl - so installing it won't break any shell scripts that expect certain behavior because they will continue to use the OpenSSL /usr/bin/opennsl. For example the -rand switch used in the CentOS packaaged mod_ssl post scriptlet doesn't work with LibreSSL binary. Anyway I thought some people on the list might be interested, so far it is working well for me but I would be very cautious about critical production use.

wordpess can't connect to DB but mediawiki can
by Tim Dunphy 17 Aug '15

17 Aug '15

Hey guys, I'm running both a wordpress site as well as a mediawiki off of the same web servers. The mediawiki site works great! The wordpress site, meh. Not so much. I keep getting the common database connection error: Error establishing a database connection And as far as I can tell the settings between the mediawiki site and the wordpress site are nearly identical. Here's the media wiki config first since that one's working: ## Database settings $wgLBFactoryConf['class'] = 'LBFactorySimple'; $wgDBtype = "mysql"; $wgDBservers = ''; $wgDBserver = "db.example.com"; $wgDBssl = true; $wgDBname = "jfwiki"; $wgDBuser = "admin_ssl"; $wgDBpassword = "secret"; And here's what the wordpress database connection settings look like since they are not: /** MySQL database username */ define('DB_NAME', 'jokefire'); define('DB_USER', 'admin_ssl'); /** MySQL database password */ define('DB_PASSWORD', 'secret'); /** MySQL hostname */ define('DB_HOST', 'db.example.com'); /** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */ define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8'); /** The Database Collate type. Don't change this if in doubt. */ define('DB_COLLATE', ''); /** Contact the database over a secure connection */ define('DB_SSL', true); I realize that they're not exactly the same. But I think you can make an easy correlation between the mediawiki settings and the settings for wordpress. And they look similar enough to think that wordpress should be working. Right? The only real other difference is the name of the database each site is using, which I guess makes sense. But the fact that medawiki works fine tells me that the user and password set for both sites has access to the database. Just for laughs I use the account settings from the wordpress config to demonstrate that I can connect to the DB on the command line. Again, it's the same account info that I have in the wik site: #mysql -uadmin_ssl -p -h db.example.com -D jokefire -e "show tables" | head -5 Enter password: Tables_in_jokefire wp_bp_activity wp_bp_activity_meta wp_bp_chat_channel_users wp_bp_chat_channels Also, I created a basic php script to see if it could connect to the database <?php $link = mysql_connect('db.example.com', 'admin_ssl', 'secret'); if (!$link) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } echo 'Connected successfully'; mysql_close($link); ?> And to my surprise it can't connect! php testconnect.php Could not connect: Access denied for user 'admin_ssl'@'ec2-54-86-143-49.compute-1.amazonaws.com' (using password: YES) Why am I surprised that it can't? Because again 1) the wiki can connect to the database no problem. And 2) I can connect to the db on the command line using the same credentials. My API Client version is: Client API version mysqlnd 5.0.10 - 20111026 - $Id: c85105d7c6f7d70d609bb4c000257868a40840ab $ There are two MySQL databases configured in a master/master setup. The database address is a VIP that is load balanced on the same two HA/Proxy nodes. The two database servers are using MariaDB version 10.0.20-1. There's 3 web servers sitting behind a VIP as well. But to troubleshoot this I just the IP address of the 1st web server into my hosts file and I'm using that as the site name. I'm not really sure how important it is to know all of that about the load balanced aspects of the site. But I wanted to get those details out into the open just in case they were important. Thanks in advance! Tim -- GPG me!! gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-keys F186197B

FIFREEZE/FITHAW
by sri 17 Aug '15

17 Aug '15

Hello Group, How to find my centos kernel has compiled with the code for FIFREEZE/FITHAW or not? Am looking for this config option to confirm the issue with VMWare ESX5.5 - my VM hangs while taking snapshot with "Quiesce Guest File System" option enabled. When contacted vmware support, they asked to check whether my centos kernel has this feature enabled? Below are details about my centos kernel: "2.6.18-371.9.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Jun 10 17:49:56 EDT 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux" When I downloaded the kernel I could see there is a patch with these checks, but not sure that patch is compiled in my centos kernel image. Would appreciate any pointers. Thanks, Sri

Centos 6.5 install, missing libraries: where did I go wrong?
by Gilbert Sebenste 15 Aug '15

15 Aug '15

Hello everyone, I had a CentOS 6.5 CD for a clean install, and I did a desktop install. Then I did a yum update to bring it up to 6.7. So far, so good. I run a bunch of scientific programs that use C++ compilers and libraries. But, the programs were failing becaause in /usr/lib, the libraries simply weren't there. The directory was fairly sparsely populated with about 10 directories of libraries for specific programs. But otherwise, things that are in /usr/lib on a Centos 5 server, such as: libkate.so.1.2.1 libkdb5.a libkdb5.so libkdb5.so.4 are indeed there. These are just 4 library examples. I assume I did something wrong in the installation to keep the lib*.so.* files from installing into /usr/lib. What do I need to do next time to keep that from happening? Anyone have any ideas?

Odd problem with updates to the recent CR
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 14 Aug '15

14 Aug '15

We started updating via CR over a week ago, before 6.7 was official, and just today identified an issue.... For (alleged) security, the agency I work as a contractor for runs SiteMinder, from CA. #insert rant_against_CA.h Anyway, starting late last week, we found issues - as in, its process, which runs under, and is started by, apache, was suddenly pegging a CPU or so. Trying to stop httpd, that worked... but this idiot process never did (and it's ugly to clean up after). What we just this morning found out to be the problem is that some package seems to change the permissions on /var/log/httpd to 700 from 770. The result was that this ...thing... couldn't write to its own logs, running as apache:root, while /var/log/httpd was root:root. I just did rpm -q httpd --scripts, and that doesn't show anything, so as I don't know what package did it.... If anyone knows, I'd like to know. mark

dd iso to flash drive
by Wes James 14 Aug '15

14 Aug '15

I’ve been trying to get the dd of an iso to a usb flash drive to work for CentOS 6.7. It is working with the CentOS 7 DVD1 iso (x64), but if I use the same process with 6.7 bin dvd1 iso or the 6.7 live dvd, the flash drive will not boot. I thought 6.x and forward could be done like this. -wes

CentOS-6, SELInux, Ruby-on-Rails, Passenger and Kernel-2.6.32
by James B. Byrne 13 Aug '15

13 Aug '15

We run a project administration system web application call 'Redmine'. I have been trying for ages, without success, to get SELinux and Passenger -- essentially a fast-cgi replacement Apache module built specifically for Rails -- to run together. I have found that the latest versions of the Passenger Apache module are supposed to work on CentOS-6, but not with the stock kernel. See: https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/walkthroughs/deploy/ruby/ownserver… My questions are: Are there really really grave implications of using the kernel-ml form epel repo to get a sufficiently modern kernel to finally get Passenger and SELinux to work together? And are those implications more grave than simply disabling SELinux on that server entirely, which is the only other choice.

OT: bareos (F/OSS fork of bacula)

I'm trying to get this up and running, and have run into something that isn't clear in the docs: volumes are part of pools, I get, but I see that the limit to the number of volumes is 100. Is this a drop-dead can't-go-beyond? If I have > 100 clients to back up, do they all go to one volume, or to individual volumes? mark

That will give you a sense of what services are covered. Your previous netstat output indicated that portreserve was "holding" both 143 (imap) and 993 (imaps). Since we were focusing on imap I didn't ask for netstat for other ports, so don't know what else it might have been "holding".

That will all work internally (assuming internal consistency), but the outside world has a rather different view. The information returned by whois for jaa.org.uk (which has your name as registrant) shows: Name servers: ns.hosteurope.com ns2.hosteurope.com as the nameservers for that domain. If you do a "dig" against either of those servers for your maui host: dig @ns.hosteurope.com maui.jaa.org.uk you get: maui.jaa.org.uk. 14400 IN A 213.152.52.233 An rDNS lookup on that IPnumber returns: 233.52.152.213.in-addr.arpa. 56246 IN PTR jaa.org.uk. while the rDNS on 148.197.29.5 returns: 5.29.197.148.in-addr.arpa. 50161 IN PTR adarwash1.ee.port.ac.uk which matches the forward lookup: adarwash1.ee.port.ac.uk. 86400 IN A 148.197.29.5 So, the outside world has a rather different view of what your ipnumber(s) are than you seem to be getting/using internally.

As you can see from the netstat output, cyrus is listening (on all interfaces), but only on ipv6. It doesn't appear to be listening on any interface on ipv4. You do have portreserve "holding" the IMAP ipv4 ports. It's possible that it's not releasing them to cyrus. You may want to look at the man page for that application, and see that it knows about cyrus (mine is only set up to "hold" things for cups). I would also suggest looking at your yum.log to see if cyrus was updated with the .6->.7 update. If so, look for "rpmnew" or "rpmold" config files. In my experience it is uncommon for updates to move current configs out, unless they are incompatible with a new release (and when they do you should find an "rpmold"). I've never touched cyrus, so can't be of much help trying to (re-)configure it (but I'd look at portreserve first).

I upgraded to C6.7 and now there is no way I can find of connecting from evo to the cyrus imap(s) server [root@maui:~]$ ps -ef|grep imap cyrus 27768 1 0 15:21 ? 00:00:00 /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/cyrus-master -d cyrus 27775 27768 0 15:21 ? 00:00:00 imapd -s cyrus 27779 27768 0 15:21 ? 00:00:00 imapd cyrus 27781 27768 0 15:21 ? 00:00:00 imapd cyrus 27782 27768 0 15:21 ? 00:00:00 imapd cyrus 27783 27768 0 15:21 ? 00:00:00 imapd cyrus 27933 27768 0 15:36 ? 00:00:00 imapd cyrus 28048 27768 0 15:46 ? 00:00:00 imapd evo is running on a fully updated F22 machine, cyrus/exim on C6.7 k-9 mail on a tablet and a mobile no longer connect even tried thunderbird which also would not connect When trying to connect with evo I get Failed to open folder The reported error was "Could not connect to 148.197.29.5: Connection refused" If I try to change things by editing the "Recieving Email" menu ie by changing the "Encryption method" from "SSL on a dedicated port" 993 to "No encryption" it still fails In fact just hitting Authentication "Check for supported types" gives Failed to query server for a list of supported authentication mechanisms.

Apache mod_perl cross site scripting vulnerability
by Proxy One 12 Aug '15

12 Aug '15

Hello, I've failed latest PCI scan because of CVE-2009-0796. Centos 6.7. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this issue as having moderate security impact and bug as wontfix. Explanation: The vulnerability affects non default configuration of Apache HTTP web server, i.e cases, when access to Apache::Status and Apache2::Status resources is explicitly allowed via <Location /perl-status> httpd.conf configuration directive. Its occurrence can be prevented by using the default configuration for the Apache HTTP web server (not exporting /perl-status). I haven't used <Location /perl-status> but Trustwave still finds me vulnerable. Evidence: Request: GET /perl- status/APR::SockAddr::port/"><script>alert('xss')</script> HTTP/1.1 Accept: */* User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) Host: www.mydomain.com Content-Type: text/html Content-Length: 0 Response: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found Date: Mon, 07 Aug 2015 11:10:21 GMT Server: Apache/2.2.15 (CentOS) X-Powered-By: PHP/5.3.3 Set-Cookie: PHPSESSID=kj6bpud7htmbtgaqtcwhsqk7j1; path=/ Expires: Thu, 19 Nov 1981 08:52:00 GMT Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre- check=0 Pragma: no-cache Connection: close Transfer-Encoding: chunked Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 Body: contains '"><script>alert('xss')</script>' How can I get around this?

Detailed Release Notes are available at http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOSLiveDVD6.7 http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOSLiveCD6.7 +++++++++++++++++++++++ Overview The CentOS-6.7 LiveDVD and LiveCD are meant to be a Linux environment suited to be run directly from either Optical media or USB storage devices. It does not need any persistent storage on a machine, which also makes it a suitable recovery environment. The Live media are setup to run as full desktop environments and include most of the applications used in this role. +++++++++++++++++++++++ Download SHA256SUMs : b13e03dc9768178d749855eb5d33339a6684d669b945f74a1fecb0a61fa248f2 CentOS-6.7-i386-LiveCD.iso ff73d6cd00f56ba08a607aab707e5000be5cdc67b5c65a7283c37c24f1b88198 CentOS-6.7-i386-LiveDVD.iso bc8e102f93982b311b1cfd61218113aa08a3b251bf7b4c4468cdbeb5e80dff0a CentOS-6.7-x86_64-LiveCD.iso 2f320093024cf586ad256d8ae41bef1fe2c03b79f3854d3e4500d9e76e052c09 CentOS-6.7-x86_64-LiveDVD.iso The CentOS-6.7 Live media images are released to all external mirrors and available for download now. List of mirrors is available at these urls : http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/6/isos/i386/ http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/6/isos/x86_64/ Due to the size of these DVDs, torrents have also been released and are being seeded at this time. The torrents are available at: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/isos/x86_64/CentOS-6.7-x86_64-LiveDVD.tor… http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/isos/x86_64/CentOS-6.7-x86_64-LiveCD.torr… http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/isos/i386/CentOS-6.7-i386-LiveDVD.torrent http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/isos/i386/CentOS-6.7-i386-LiveCD.torrent Once you download the images, its important to verify contents using the sha256sum utility, against the published sums here. +++++++++++++++++++++++ Notes You can now install the Live environment to your hard disk. Please note that you need more that 512Mb of ram to be able to use that 'iinstall to hard drive' feature (If you have less than 512Mb of ram, you can install to disk but in text-mode, meaning that instead of clicking on the desktop icon, you have to launch a gnome-terminal and launch the 'liveinst' command from within the terminal) There is no upstream Live media product. The Live media produced within the CentOS Project is based on and around the livemedia tools from the Fedora Project. These LiveCD and LiveDVD only contains content found within the primary CentOS-6 distribution. No package from outside the distribution was included and no package has been changed from whats included in the base distribution. We appreciate all forms of feedback about these LiveDVD, including specific application inclusion requests or feature changes in future releases. The best place to provide this feedback is via the centos-devel mailing list ( http://lists.centos.org/ ) and feature requests via the issue tracker ( http://bugs.centos.org/ ). - -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | http://www.centos.org gpg key: 56BEC54E | twitter: @arrfab -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlXJ8CIACgkQnVkHo1a+xU4mUQCdE/jMS/7Le8yen/8RZ3vRYb6i +R4An3LbmVQQ9ZIZWSIp41HjYe8wyjRX =gDx4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2015 20:36:44 +0000 From: Johnny Hughes <johnny(a)centos.org> To: centos-announce(a)centos.org Subject: [CentOS-announce] CESA-2015:1586 Critical CentOS 7 firefox Security Update Message-ID: <20150811203644.GA61164(a)n04.lon1.karan.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii CentOS Errata and Security Advisory 2015:1586 Critical Upstream details at : https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2015-1586.html The following updated files have been uploaded and are currently syncing to the mirrors: ( sha256sum Filename ) x86_64: c6d196666b597fce65afed76f1d0c1d895bf65b65a560239c3e7af354a88c8c2 firefox-38.2.0-4.el7.centos.i686.rpm 7d5e310a87a424da2c81dedc06e5a39d2d1834c6c7cfa9b96f78cfadaac2ea81 firefox-38.2.0-4.el7.centos.x86_64.rpm Source: 1a70d03d18dfbd9a508748910f41e8f15e79b2aee02a7a36dfde2be7076c901f firefox-38.2.0-4.el7.centos.src.rpm -- Johnny Hughes CentOS Project { http://www.centos.org/ } irc: hughesjr, #centos(a)irc.freenode.net ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2015 22:09:11 +0000 From: Johnny Hughes <johnny(a)centos.org> To: centos-announce(a)centos.org Subject: [CentOS-announce] CESA-2015:1586 Critical CentOS 6 firefox Security Update Message-ID: <20150811220911.GA62877(a)n04.lon1.karan.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii CentOS Errata and Security Advisory 2015:1586 Critical Upstream details at : https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2015-1586.html The following updated files have been uploaded and are currently syncing to the mirrors: ( sha256sum Filename ) i386: 51517ece01268a1f89503a0c5ff73485d43ba38eddaa6c47381f02a77ddfd509 firefox-38.2.0-4.el6.centos.i686.rpm x86_64: 51517ece01268a1f89503a0c5ff73485d43ba38eddaa6c47381f02a77ddfd509 firefox-38.2.0-4.el6.centos.i686.rpm 4947e88d47467034ceb41ba60c12ce4d79a8dc6c347671ee1abb338475379308 firefox-38.2.0-4.el6.centos.x86_64.rpm Source: 0ff6b5f481a6a9494d3eec90fe8e7d79f21bf52564a9e0b39db911a3c5ea69c7 firefox-38.2.0-4.el6.centos.src.rpm -- Johnny Hughes CentOS Project { http://www.centos.org/ } irc: hughesjr, #centos(a)irc.freenode.net ------------------------------ Message: 4 Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2015 17:41:12 -0500 From: Johnny Hughes <johnny(a)centos.org> To: CentOS-Announce <centos-announce(a)centos.org> Subject: [CentOS-announce] Release 1507 of CentOS Linux 7 Rolling ISO Based Media Message-ID: <55CA7A08.2030409(a)centos.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" The CentOS Project is pleased to announce general availability of the 1507 rolling build ISO install based media for CentOS Linux 7.

Help viewer issues
by Toralf Lund 12 Aug '15

12 Aug '15

Hi. Does anyone else have issues with the GNOME help viewer on CentOS 6? I think it mostly worked a while back, but after some recent update or the other, I have problems like: 1. Nothing happens when I click "Desktop User Guide" or "GNOME Desktop Accessibility Guide" or "GNOME Desktop System Administration Guide" on the "Help Topics" page. 2. If I select "section" links in the column on the left-hand side (under "Desktop"), I do get new section headings, but when I select any of these, again, nothing happens. 3. If I try to open a man page via a command like 'yelp man:man' or 'xdg-open man:man', I only get a blank window. Any ideas about what may be wrong? - Toralf [http://www.pgs.com/mediaFiles/Exclaimer%20graphics/PGS_LOGO_RGB_42x53px.jpg]<http://www.pgs.com> Toralf Lund Senior Software Engineer Imaging & Engineering | Geoscience & Engineering Telephone: +47 67 52 64 00 Direct: +47 67 51 57 78 Mobile: +47 91 31 66 91 Email: toralf.lund(a)pgs.com<mailto:Toralf.Lund@pgs.com> A Clearer Image | www.pgs.com<http://www.pgs.com> [http://www.pgs.com/mediaFiles/Exclaimer%20graphics/150731-ColourWave-660x14…] Address: Lilleakerveien 4C, 0283 Oslo, Norway Postal Address: P.O.Box 251 Lilleaker, 0216 Oslo, Norway This e-mail, including any attachments and response string, may contain proprietary information which is confidential and may be legally privileged.
