Bash still vulnerable
by Lars Hecking 09 Oct '14

09 Oct '14

According to the vulnerability test script from shellshocker.net, the latest bash versions on CentOS5 and CentOS6, 3.2-33.el5_11.4 and 4.1.2-15.el6_5.2, resp., are still vulnerable to CVE-2014-6277. In fact, on CentOS6, abrtd will send you a nice report about it. Does anyone know if upstream is working on a fix? [root@host ~]# bash ~/shellshock_test.sh CVE-2014-6271 (original shellshock): not vulnerable /root/shellshock_test.sh: line 16: 17229 Segmentation fault (core dumped) bash -c "f() { x() { _;}; x() { _;} <<a; }" 2> /dev/null CVE-2014-6277 (segfault): VULNERABLE CVE-2014-6278 (Florian's patch): not vulnerable CVE-2014-7169 (taviso bug): not vulnerable CVE-2014-7186 (redir_stack bug): not vulnerable CVE-2014-7187 (nested loops off by one): not vulnerable CVE-2014-//// (exploit 3 on http://shellshocker.net/) not vulnerable [root@host ~]#

Problem with WRT54GL router
by Timothy Murphy 09 Oct '14

09 Oct '14

I have a curious problem with an old WRT54GL router, which I use as a WiFi access point on my LAN: Internet->ADSL modem->CentOS-7 computer->WRT54GL router The router has always had a slight problem of losing connection every so often - it used to be every couple of days, but recently it has become much more often. My cure was always to disconnect the power from the router for 10 seconds or so, and then re-connect it. Recently I discovered that running the following script on the CentOS computer seems to solve the problem (for a while) sudo systemctl restart dhcpd sudo systemctl restart network sudo systemctl restart shorewall (I suspect the first, dhcpd, is irrelevant.) Incidentally, I am able to ping laptops on the LAN (but not the other way round) even when the router is in its "bad" state. I wonder if anyone has had a similar experience, and can offer advice? I don't like to examine the internals of the router, in case it stops working altogether. I'm planning on getting another router (N protocol), so it is not a very serious matter - I'm just puzzled by it. - Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland

DHCPv6 - requesting "other" information
by Mike Mohr 09 Oct '14

09 Oct '14

Hello; I've run into a rather interesting problem on CentOS 7. According to sysconfig.txt (part of the initscripts documentation), I can set the following variables in ifcfg-ethX: DHCPV6C="yes" DHCPV6C_OPTIONS="-S" I've done so, but nothing is populated to /etc/resolv.conf and so DNS does not work. Interestingly, if I remove the latter option, an IPv6 address is added to the relevant interface. Packet dumps indicate that the required DNS information is being sent over the wire, so this appears to be a bug in the IPv6 DHCP software. Running the following command by hand yields similar results: $ dhclient -6 -S -v -v eth1 i.e. there are informational messages printed indicating that a DHCPv6 response was received successfully. Packet dumps again confirm that DNS information is being sent over the wire, but is not being used by the DHCP client application. Is this a known issue, and is there a way to fix the problem? All the best, Michael

Centos laptop support
by Frank Cox 09 Oct '14

09 Oct '14

Today I found myself in need of a laptop to run Centos on. And that simple statement led to an all-day odyssey. My original plan was to purchase a laptop and install Centos 6 on it. I went to Staples and tried booting it on every model of laptop that they had in the store. They all come with Windows 8 installed, and for the edification of anyone who doesn't know this (I didn't until today) you have to conduct a real song and dance to get to the bios settings on one of those things: boot windows move mouse pointer to the top right corner of the screen move down to setting menu (gear) that shows up click on power off icon Hold shift key and left-click on "restart" it goes to the troubleshooting screen click on advanced troubleshooting click on "change uefi settings" now we get to the bios set secure boot off set legacy boot priority And then you can boot from a USB flash drive. *whew* (It's easy to put it back afterward, just go into the bios and tell it set to defaults, save and exit.) Anyway, I tried booting a Centos 6 Live CD image on a usb flash drive on every single model of laptop they had in stock and no joy on any of them -- they either hung altogether, started booting and hung at some point along the way, started a continuous cycle of start booting, reset, start booting again, or kernel panicked. Every last one. I then tried a Centos 7 Live CD image on another usb flash drive and then the third machine that I tried it on (Lenovo Ideapad S400 Touch) worked. So I bought that one and have now wiped Windows off of its hard drive and installed Centos 7 so it now looks and acts like a real computer. I never would have thought that it would take all bloody day to purchase one laptop. (And I'm going to be having nightmares about that Windows Boot Manager thing.) Since it has now become amazingly difficult to get a laptop if you're not planning to use Windows, at least around here, I'm wondering what the rest of you fine folks do when it comes to purchasing a laptop? Next time this comes up, I'd rather not have to spend all day on something that used to take fifteen minutes. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com

virsh list hangs
by Matt Garman 09 Oct '14

09 Oct '14

I followed the wiki[1] to create a KVM virtual machine using bridged network on CentOS 6.5. It seemed to work fine on initial setup. However, after a boot, it doesn't auto-start the VMs, or at least, something has to timeout (a *very* long time, on the order of 15--30 minutes) before they can be started. Shortly after boot, if I go into "virsh", then do a "list", it just hangs. Likewise, if I go into "virt-manager", it just hangs "connecting". Kernel version is: 2.6.32-431.29.2.el6.x86_64 Relevant package versions: libvirt.x86_64 0.10.2-29.el6_5.12 libvirt-client.x86_64 0.10.2-29.el6_5.12 libvirt-python.x86_64 0.10.2-29.el6_5.12 python-virtinst.noarch 0.600.0-18.el6 virt-manager.x86_64 0.9.0-19.el6 virt-top.x86_64 1.0.4-3.15.el6 virt-viewer.x86_64 0.5.6-8.el6_5.3 qemu-img.x86_64 2:0.12.1.2-2.415.el6_5.14 qemu-kvm.x86_64 2:0.12.1.2-2.415.el6_5.14 CPU is a Xeon E3-1230v3. I have the virtualization setting enabled in the BIOS. I googled on this, and saw a bunch of talk about two years ago regarding issues with the libvirt packages having a deadlock bug. But I think the versions of the relevant packages that I have installed are new enough to have fixes for that. Anyone ever fought this before? Thanks! [1] http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/KVM

A little help with default resolution of CentOS7 and Panasonic TV
by Nathan Valentine 09 Oct '14

09 Oct '14

Hi, everyone. tldr: How in the heck do I force CentOS7 to boot to a low/conservative GDM resolution? Hoping someone can lend a hand getting CentOS7 to sync to my Panasonic Vierra 42' TV. It worked fine in CentOS6.5 but since installing I boot to a GDM background with no login prompt. I can SSH into the node and configure multiuser runlevel but that's not fun at all. ;) Here's the output of xrandr: # systemctl get-default graphical.target # xrandr -display \:0 -q Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 8192 x 8192 VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI1 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 698mm x 392mm 1920x1080 60.0* 59.9 24.0 24.0 1920x1080i 60.1 60.0 1280x720 60.0 59.9 1440x480i 60.1 60.1 60.1 720x480 60.0 59.9 640x480 60.0 59.9 DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI3 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DP2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DP3 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) # xrandr -display \:0 --output HDMI1 --mode 640x480 # echo $? 0 # /bin/systemctl restart gdm.service # echo $? 0 So setting to something very conservative doesn't make a difference nor do any of the other detected modes. I also tried bouncing the TV to see if that would help. Nada. -- --- V

can I check the mac address on DHCP from my command line
by Dan Hyatt 09 Oct '14

09 Oct '14

Hi, I have an interesting problem. I want to be able to verify that my hostname, ipaddress, and mac address are correct in the DNS/DHCP. I have the values, how do I compare. I am able to use NSLOOKUP for the hostname=ip confirmation How do I do the ip addresss = mac address comparison I tried arp and a few other things. Almost everything on google says either to logon to DHCP (which I do not own) or use arp, which is not giving the desired results. I provided the mac address, ip address, and host name I want to find out if a missed entry might be causing the pxe boots and network problems I am having to fail. Dan

CentOS 7 remove items on screen
by Jerry Geis 08 Oct '14

08 Oct '14

How can I remove the four items on screen? Applications, Places home trash from the command line? I'd prefer to remove the top panel and bottom panel all together if possible, but they can stay - I just don't want anything showing on the screen. searched all around for kiosk mode gnome3 etc.. not finding anything good for CentOS7. Was able to do this in CentOS 6 can't believe they took out functionality. Any way to "not" have those menu items and not have icons on the main screen? Thanks jerry

CentOS 7 kernel console under KVM?
by Chris Adams 08 Oct '14

08 Oct '14

Is there a way to get GRUB2 and the kernel to run a "serial" console under KVM? I'm running a Fedora 20 desktop, with libvirt-managed VMs. When I run a CentOS 6 VM, I can set both the boot loader and kernel up to use ttyS0 and get a console compatible with "virsh console". When I try the same with a CentOS 7 VM, it doesn't work. If I set it to ttyS0, I just don't get anything. I read that I should use hvc0 instead (no idea how to set the boot loader to use that); when I set that on the kernel command line, the kernel crashes during boot with: kernel tried to execute NX-protected page - exploit attempt? (uid: 0) BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffff81a4cfec IP: [<ffffffff81a4cfec>] vty_init+0x174/0x174 PGD 18d3067 PUD 18d4063 PMD 3d9e1063 PTE 8000000001a4c163 If I don't do either, I can add a getty on hvc0 with "systemctl enable serial-getty(a)hvc0.service", but that doesn't get me the boot loader or kernel messages. -- Chris Adams <linux(a)cmadams.net>

CentOS 7 and nfs

08 Oct '14

First time firing up NFS on a CentOS 7 box. Under 5 or 6, service nfs start started *everything* (rpc, etc). Based on trying that, and doing some googling, is it the case that it does *not* do everything in 7, and I do have to start the pieces manually? mark

patching bash 2.05b for Shellshock
by Boris Epstein 08 Oct '14

08 Oct '14

Hello all, Amongst a number of modern CentOS machines we have this one RHEL 3 machine (don't ask me why:) and on it we have bash 2.05b. I was trying to compile a version of bash for it that would be Shellshock-proofed. To do that, I downloaded a copy of the code from the GNU along with all the 13 patches, applied the patches, compiled the code and installed the executable. All vulnerabilities appear to be fixed with the exception of CVE-2014-7187. Does anybody know why this may be? Thanks. Boris.

centos 7, docker, NFS and uid = -2

VNCServer Startup Config
by Igal ＠ getRailo.org 08 Oct '14

hi all, I've inherited a server with CentOS 6.4 the VNC Server starts up with the OS and its screen resolution is set to 800x600. I found that I can set the resolution by specifying the -geometry switch, but I can't find where the call to start the vncserver is set in order to change it. I know that it's not in /etc/xinetd.d (the only file there is rsync) here are the contents of ~/.vnc/xstartup #!/bin/sh [ -r /etc/sysconfig/i18n ] && . /etc/sysconfig/i18n export LANG export SYSFONT vncconfig -iconic & unset SESSION_MANAGER unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS OS=`uname -s` if [ $OS = 'Linux' ]; then case "$WINDOWMANAGER" in *gnome*) if [ -e /etc/SuSE-release ]; then PATH=$PATH:/opt/gnome/bin export PATH fi ;; esac fi if [ -x /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ]; then exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc fi if [ -f /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ]; then exec sh /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc fi [ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources xsetroot -solid grey xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & twm & any thoughts?

umount problem
by Fred Smith 08 Oct '14

08 Oct '14

I've got a usb HD mounted, and it has been mounted since the weekend, and has been kept busy during that period. now I"m done with it an want to umount it, but neither umount nor the on-screen icon (when right-clicked) will let me do it: it is /dev/sdd1, mounted as /media/seagateusb. when root tries to umount it we get this: # umount /media/seagateusb umount: /media/seagateusb: device is busy. (In some cases useful info about processes that use the device is found by lsof(8) or fuser(1)) lsof | grep sdd1 gives this: $ lsof | grep sdd1 jbd2/sdd1 26358 root cwd DIR 253,1 4096 2 / jbd2/sdd1 26358 root rtd DIR 253,1 4096 2 / jbd2/sdd1 26358 root txt unknown /proc/26358/exe lsof | grep /media/seagateusb yields no output. I know, I could reboot, but I'd just as soon not. Anybody know what that jbd2/sdd1 stuff is that lsof shows me, or how to umount it other than a reboot? thanks! -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex(a)fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ----------------------------- Show me your ways, O LORD, teach me your paths; Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, And my hope is in you all day long. -------------------------- Psalm 25:4-5 (NIV) --------------------------------

OT - httpd/conf.d include questions - allowing only some addresses
by Robert Moskowitz 07 Oct '14

07 Oct '14

My web searching is not finding out the answers to this, so I turn to you all here. I am trying to NOT modify my httpd/conf/httpd.conf file, and only make changes via includes. I have done that with a 00-init.conf where I set things like servername and serveradmin. Now I want to move my allow and denies to a 01-allow.conf include. I tried: <Directory "/var/www/html"> Order allow,deny deny from all </Directory> as that seems to be what is in the default conf, but I see in the error_log: [Tue Oct 07 08:51:58 2014] [error] [client 208.83.67.156] Directory index forbidden by Options directive: /var/www/html/ And maybe this is not the right restriction, because when I make this change directly in the default httpd.conf, I still can get to the default web page. Now on to the 'allow' statement. All syntax examples I have seen for it follow: allow from 1.1.1.0/24 1.1.2.0/24 2400:cb00:2048:1::/64 and soforth. That is each range separated by a space. But potentially I have 18 ranges to specify, and at least named makes it easy with each range on its own line ending with a ';'. For now I am only putting 2 ranges in, but how does one set up a longer list of allowed ranges? thanks

OH NO, Something has gone wrong!
by Fred Smith 07 Oct '14

07 Oct '14

Hi all! I'm setting up C7-64 as a VM using VirtualBox, on a Windows host. as soon as I install the vbox Guest Extensions and reboot, when I log in next time I get a white screen with a frowny face that says "Oh No, Something has gone wrong!" and then "A problem has occurred, and the system can't recover, please log out and try again." Sounds like a VirtualBox problem to me, but was wondering if anyone here had seen it and maybe knows what's going on. Thanks! -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex(a)fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ----------------------------- "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven." ------------------------------ Matthew 7:21 (niv) -----------------------------

restarting mysql databases
by Robert Moskowitz 07 Oct '14

07 Oct '14

I am doing an install of a mysql system, and decided that I needed to change some things like host name. So I have to go back to square one with the mysql setup, but can't find any instructions for this. I TRIED: mysql_install_db And it did SOMETHING, but mysqladmin -u root password 'mypass' failed with: mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)' I tried 'yum reinstall mysql' and that did not help.

But that seems risky as there is /var/lib/mysql/mysql that has lots of interesting looking files.

Don't know what changing the hostname did or does not do. I am digging into various info to figure out what to delete or rebuild to get back to pristine mysql. I can understand why this should not be easy - for someone to remove all of your mysql data, but it should be possible...

trying to kickstart a vm guest from my datastore
by Dan Hyatt 06 Oct '14

06 Oct '14

I have a new ESXi server (5.x), and trying to load some VM guests on there. I have the guests configured, but when I try and boot from ISO image, the graphics are so bad it is futile. No worries I normally use kickstart anyways. Because the ESXi (on the same network as my physical servers) cannot talk to the PXE server. But works fine on the network (I can ssh/scp in and out of the ESXi server). i am unable to kickstart from the network. As this is a blade, there is not DVD access. But I have a kickstart file, an iso image on my datastore. Really I have two questions: 1. how do I "test" or troubleshoot WHY ESXi cannot reach the pxe server. The mac addresses/ips/hostnames of the VM guests are in DNS and DHCP. 2. How do I kickstart a VM guest from the datastore kickstart file/iso image? D.

massive load caused by smartvd
by Tim Dunphy 06 Oct '14

06 Oct '14

Hey all, I noticed that my puppet server running CentOS 6.5 was acting a little pokey. So I logged in and did what well just about anyone would've done. And ran the uptime command to have a look at the load. And it was astonishingly high! [root@puppet:~] #uptime 21:28:01 up 1:26, 3 users, load average: 107.37, 72.06, 75.52 So then I had a look at top and saw a LOT of processes by the name of smartvd. 7332 root 20 0 423m 1808 0 S 5.6 0.1 0:49.30 smarvtd 5469 root 20 0 423m 1804 0 S 4.6 0.1 0:49.55 smarvtd 2042 root 20 0 423m 1804 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:49.66 smarvtd 2421 root 20 0 423m 1808 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:47.62 smarvtd 3081 root 20 0 423m 1808 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:47.08 smarvtd 3366 root 20 0 423m 1804 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:47.87 smarvtd 3568 root 20 0 423m 1808 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:48.94 smarvtd 3971 root 20 0 423m 1812 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:49.18 smarvtd 4264 root 20 0 423m 1812 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:48.33 smarvtd 4585 root 20 0 423m 1812 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:48.44 smarvtd 5277 root 20 0 423m 1808 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:48.13 smarvtd 6160 root 20 0 423m 1812 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:49.33 smarvtd 6441 root 20 0 423m 1808 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:48.17 smarvtd 6746 root 20 0 423m 1804 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:49.60 smarvtd 7612 root 20 0 423m 1812 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:48.97 smarvtd 7919 root 20 0 423m 1808 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:47.33 smarvtd 8202 root 20 0 423m 1812 0 S 3.7 0.1 0:49.67 smarvtd 26526 root 20 0 423m 1812 0 S 3.7 0.1 1:22.17 whitptabil 2747 root 20 0 423m 1812 0 S 2.8 0.1 0:48.41 smarvtd 4952 root 20 0 423m 1812 0 S 2.8 0.1 0:48.43 smarvtd 5878 root 20 0 423m 1808 0 S 2.8 0.1 0:48.02 smarvtd 7048 root 20 0 423m 1808 0 S 2.8 0.1 0:48.51 smarvtd So my question to you is what the HELL is smartvd ?

by Ashley M. Kirchner 06 Oct '14

06 Oct '14

I'm completely confused here and I'm hoping someone here has a setup they're willing to share, or help me configure things on my end. My connectivity is through Comcast, who unfortunately, does not offer ipv6 in my area. My connection goes like this: Comcast -> Motorola Surfboard Cable Router -> CentOS 6.5 server The CentOS server is multi-homed and manages the internal 192.168.x.x network by offering DHCP and firewall service (NATting and others.) DNS lookups are going to Comcast's servers. I have an IPV6 tunnel through Hurricane Electric (www.tunnelbroker.net) The tunnel is configured and is up and running on the CentOS server. I can ping several IPV6 addresses from it just fine: ping6 -n ipv6.google.com PING ipv6.google.com(2607:f8b0:400f:801::1006) 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 2607:f8b0:400f:801::1006: icmp_seq=1 ttl=53 time=109 ms 64 bytes from 2607:f8b0:400f:801::1006: icmp_seq=2 ttl=53 time=109 ms 64 bytes from 2607:f8b0:400f:801::1006: icmp_seq=3 ttl=53 time=106 ms ^C --- ipv6.google.com ping statistics --- 3 packets transmitted, 3 received, 0% packet loss, time 2436ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 106.905/108.723/109.756/1.317 ms What I'd like to do now is have DHCP offer ipv6 addresses as well. Problem is, I don't know how to configure it properly using the information given to me by Hurricane. I have my client address which is what the CentOS tunnel interface is. Then I have a routed /64 and /48 prefix which I *think* is what I'm supposed to use for my internal network (according to their info popup window) but I don't know how to configure DHCPd to use that and then route through the ipv6 interface. So does anyone here have a tunnel from HE and are using DHCP on an internal network handing out ipv6 addresses? Any suggestions of how to configure dhcpd6.conf? Thanks all. Ash

Centos 7: Remove Gnome from GDM options
by Frank Cox 05 Oct '14

05 Oct '14

When you click on the gear icon on the GDM login screen, it provides a list of the available desktop environments so you can pick between them. Since I exclusively use Mate on this computer, how can I remove the other options from that menu? Earlier today when I logged in the machine decided on its own that what I really wanted was Gnome Classic, so I had to log out to change it back to Mate, then log in again. I would like to tell it to use Mate exclusively, with no other options to select by mistake. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Real D 3D Digital Cinema ~ www.melvilletheatre.com

CentOS 7 - Have 2 disks, each with a biosboot partition, can only boot off one of them
by Digimer 05 Oct '14

05 Oct '14

Hi all, I used a kickstart script to setup a new machine of mine with RAID 1 (I couldn't get anaconda to create matching partition schemes). So I've now got /dev/sdg1 and /dev/sdh1 as 'bios_grub' (/dev/sd{a-f} are a separate array). 0 root@an-nas02:~# parted /dev/sdg print free Model: ATA ST3000NC000 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdg: 3001GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B Partition Table: gpt Disk Flags: pmbr_boot Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 17.4kB 1049kB 1031kB Free Space 1 1049kB 3146kB 2097kB bios_grub 2 3146kB 3001GB 3001GB raid 3001GB 3001GB 466kB Free Space 0 root@an-nas02:~# parted /dev/sdh print free Model: ATA ST3000NC000 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdh: 3001GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B Partition Table: gpt Disk Flags: pmbr_boot Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 17.4kB 1049kB 1031kB Free Space 1 1049kB 3146kB 2097kB bios_grub 2 3146kB 3001GB 3001GB raid 3001GB 3001GB 466kB Free Space I can only boot off of /dev/sdh, so I tried to run 'grub2-install' against /dev/sdg and it failed with this error: *** Error in `grub2-install': double free or corruption (fasttop): 0x00000000010a83b0 *** (full error: http://fpaste.org/139382/25324161/) It seems like it's blowing up on grub2-probe, as I can generate the same error.

VMWare Workstation Guest Keep Crashing
by Igal ＠ getRailo.org 05 Oct '14

05 Oct '14

hi all, I've inherited a CentOS 6.4 machine that runs VMWare Workstation 9 which in turn hosts a Windows SBS 2011 guest. the problem is that the Windows guest keeps crashing, and I have no idea why. it was working fine for a while but recently started crashing after a day or two of operation. as a total Linux/CentOS noob, I have some questions: 1) is it safe to assume that since the guest crashes, but not the host, then the issue is with the Windows setup and not the CentOS? 2) any ideas how I would go to find the problem? 3) I understand now that a better virtualization would be KVM or Xen. any word of advice on which is better if the host machine need only run the guest OS and back it up? TIA! -- Igal Sapir Railo Core Developer http://getRailo.org/

Respective Roles of NetworkManager.service and Network.service
by Richer, Mark (CIV) 05 Oct '14

05 Oct '14

I know folks have different opinions about Network Manager, but while researching how to change the name of a NIC without rebooting, I also came across the following page from RedHat that I’ll share as I find it’s very clear and concise explanations on how these services interact on CentOS/RHEL 7: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/7/ht… It answered my question as to whether it’s appropriate to have both services running and apparently this is fine, but not necessary depending on how you configure networking.

how2 mount ntfs partition that is part of a full HD image file
by Fred Smith 05 Oct '14

05 Oct '14

I have a full disk image file (courtesy of ddrescue), and need to mount one of its partitions. I suppose I should have just extracted the single partition when I was using ddrescue, but right now I have the whole disk instead, and no disk space left to re-do the extraction (in fact I won't be able to use the system where I did it for several weeks, so I'd love to be able to mount just the partition from the image I have). I'll be doing some digging, but thought I'd inquire here too. thanks in advance! -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Under no circumstances will I ever purchase anything offered to me as the result of an unsolicited e-mail message.

Mounting LUNs from a SAN array - LUN mappings to devices in /dev/ - are they static?
by Rafał Radecki 04 Oct '14

04 Oct '14

Hi All :) I am currently involved in a project in which there is a SAN array (Sun Storagetek 2540) which exports LUNs for some servers with Centos 5.2 x86. I will be performing a migration to Centos 5.9 x86_64 in some time and am gathering needed info now :) I am trying to find the place in the OS where there is the information about LUN mappings to /dev/ devices. For example on array level I have an exported LUN with number 8. I see it on one of the servers with lsscsi as: # lsscsi | grep '7\:0\:0\:8' [7:0:0:8] disk SUN LCSM100_F 0735 /dev/sdj As I said I need to perform migration of the OS to Centos 5.9 x86_64 and am curious where from does the mapping scsi device 7:0:0:8 <-> /dev/sdj come? I have some complex logical volume (Veritas Volume Manager) setup based on /dev/ disks (which are derived from LUNs imported from the array) and will need to recreate it on destination servers. My coworker said that udev may be assigning the /dev/sdj (and other) identifier so I checked this. In /etc/udev/rules.d/* I see rules for scsi subsystem (sysfs type 0 is "disk"): ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="scsi", WAIT_FOR_SYSFS="ioerr_cnt" ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="scsi_device", SYSFS{type}=="0", RUN+="socket:/org/kernel/diskres/uevents" ACTION=="remove", SUBSYSTEM=="scsi_device", RUN+="socket:/org/kernel/diskres/uevents" So I do not see anything which could answer my question. There have been other rules for different sysfs types but I think they are not relevant in my case. In sysfs in /sys/bus/scsi/devices/7:0:0:8 I found: # ll block\:sdj lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Oct 4 17:57 block:sdj -> ../../../../../../../../../../block/sdj Where else can I look for the LUN<->/dev/ device mapping rules? How are the LUNs mapped to operating system devices? Is there a way to add a static mapping so that also on a new server after attaching SAN array LUN number 8 will be visible as /dev/sdj? I think that there is a possibility that on a new server mentioned LUN will be visible as a different /dev/sd? :( That could potentially break my logical volume setup on the destination server. Any info will be greatly appreciated :) BR, Rafal.

en01 network
by Jerry Geis 04 Oct '14

04 Oct '14

I have installed CentOS 7. I added "biosdevname=0 net.ifnames=0" at install time. I still have a network name of en01 and not eth0. How do I get eth0 when viewing ifconfig? dmesg | grep eth0 show its being detected, and being renamed. systemd-udev renaming eth0 to en01... I then looked in /etc/udev and dont see anything of value... Thanks, Jerry

CUPS Enable printer from command line
by Rodrigo Pichiñual Norin 04 Oct '14

04 Oct '14

Hi all: I am investigating about Common Unix Printing System (CUPS).but, I have one doubt, when I execute the command "lpc status" , the output it's : for example: Printer-one: printer is on device 'lpd' speed -1 queuing is enabled printing is disabled 10 entries daemon present so the status the printer it's "DISABLED", I changed in the file /etc/cups/printers.conf the param "State stopped" by "State Idle" and then it's worked. My question it's, exist any command for enable printer in status disabled without modify the file printers.conf???? pd: excuse me my inglish (I speak spanish) Thanks -- *Atte.

ShellShock and bash status
by Stuart Barkley 03 Oct '14

03 Oct '14

For those of us still in shell shock, the following was sent several days ago under a misleading subject/thread mixed in with a bunch of other nonsense. (Message-ID: <54291071.7010209(a)centos.org>) According to Johnny the second bash patch addressed all of the known issues. I had been waiting for a third patch to come through and missed this important information sent on Monday.

Anyone have LibreSSL working on CentOS 6.5?
by Alan McKay 03 Oct '14

03 Oct '14

Hi folks, I searched the list for LibreSSL and found only one mention of it! Has anyone gotten this working? I have it compiling no problem, but removing OpenSSL is another story of course. It seems to be compiled with FIPS support and of course there is no such thing in LibreSSL - that is something they tore out thanks, -Alan -- "Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV" - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"
