by Robert Moskowitz 22 Feb '13

22 Feb '13

I have read that v 6.3 is about Fedora 12. Now that v 6.4 has shipped (no I won't be dumb enough to ask when C6.4 we ship), what version of Fedora does it match up with?

Packaging bug: xulrunner-17.0.3-1.el5_9.i386.rpm
by Robert Heller 21 Feb '13

21 Feb '13

Minor packaging bug: with the new xulrunner (at least for 32-bit): When running the /usr/bin/xulrunner script, it looks for the binary in /usr/lib/xulrunner-17.0.3, but all of the files are actually installed in /usr/lib/xulrunner. Creating a symlink: cd /usr/lib ln -s xulrunner xulrunner-17.0.3 cures the problem. -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 / heller(a)deepsoft.com Deepwoods Software -- http://www.deepsoft.com/ () ascii ribbon campaign -- against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org -- against proprietary attachments

libtiff with bigtiff support
by Weiner, Michael 21 Feb '13

21 Feb '13

Can anyone tell me if the current libtiff-3.9.4-9.el6_3.x86_64 RPM has bigtiff support built into it? I need this for tiling rather large images for the Virtual Microscope project I am working on, and I am having issues building the 4x versions that only seem to be available for F18.

looking for sssd basics and simple config with existing ldap centos 6.3
by Götz Reinicke - IT Koordinator 21 Feb '13

21 Feb '13

Hi, I'm planing to setup a new samba fileserver as a member to an existing samba 3.x SMB. The old server is still nss-pam-ldapd configured (historic left overs). As I dont have any pressure to have the new server up and running within the next few hours, I liked to set up sssd with our existing openldap. After googling and reading some documentations from redhat/fedora I think I do have a basic clue on how it should work. But at the end I'm not getting it up and running the way I expected. My question: "rpm -ql sssd" shows a config in /etc/sssd/sssd.conf, but this file dose not exist on my system. (May be some how a packagebug?) Dose anybody has a working example file to share with me? I tried to edit some examples from the web and put some config together, but without working success. Thanks for any suggestion, hint etc. Regards Götz -- Götz Reinicke - IT-Koordinator - Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg GmbH

New DNS server up and running
by Robert Moskowitz 21 Feb '13

21 Feb '13

A new and improved instance of onlo.htt-consult.com is up and providing DNS service. It is my 1st Centos 6.3 production box. This is Phase I which included IPv6 working 'right'. Phase II will be to sign my zone and get fully with DNSSEC. I want to thank people here in answering my questions. Now on to other projects. I have a couple dozen to tackle.

Ideal RAID-1 Stripe Size for IMAP Server ?
by Svavar Örn Eysteinsson 21 Feb '13

21 Feb '13

Hi there. I'm currently configuring a brand new email server(IMAP) which will run CentOS 6.3 x64. So lots of files on the data volume. I'm confused about stripe size for my data volume. I'm using 2x500GB for OS in RAID1 and 2x2TB SAS for DATA in RAID1 which is hosted on a HP Smart Array P420 Controller with 1GB in Cache/Battery Backed Up. Both these array's are on the P420 controller. The initial configuring from Array Configuration Tools gives me 256K in Strip Size. On both array's. What would be ideal for the data volume, and or the OS array ? I'm going to run XFS for the DATA volume. Any help and or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks allot folks. Best regards, Svavar Reykjavik - Iceland

Eclipse (again)...
by Toralf Lund 20 Feb '13

20 Feb '13

Hi Just thought I might ask my recent question about Eclipse again, only in a slightly different way: Is anyone here using the Eclipse version supplied with the CentOS 6 distro (as opposed to a build downloaded from www.eclipse.org)? Does it work for you? Are you able to install additional components via the built-in software setup mechanism?

Bind - built in root hints?
by Robert Moskowitz 19 Feb '13

19 Feb '13

Over on the bind-users(a)lists.isc.org list, I am in a discussion about building the named.zone file, as Centos 6.3 does not provide it. It DOES provide a named.ca which is already old (wrt AAAA records) compared to the named.zone provided by internic. A few contributors have stated that now the hints are built into bind and you can see this with: strings /usr/local/sbin/named | grep A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET Well it looks like Centos has it at /usr/sbin/named and there are no such strings in there. Oh, these hints come from "lib/dns/rootns.c in the source code tree". So are the hints built in here?

Setting up bind - location for includes
by Robert Moskowitz 18 Feb '13

18 Feb '13

I am setting up bind this time around (just rebuilt my test machine via Kickstart) without chroot. I have a fair number of includes for named.conf; I have two views and other odds and ends. My thoughts are to make a directory; /etc/named.d to put all these includes into instead of 'dirtying' up /etc. This way the only files I replace/add to /etc are named.conf and rndc.key (I would like to work the latter around to also be in named.d, but this impacts rndc itself). Thoughts on this? Anyone else have a well segmented named.conf file?

Set an Ethernet Interface Metric
by SilverTip257 18 Feb '13

18 Feb '13

Hello All, I ended up answering my own question, but figured I'd share this and open up for discussion. It is possible to set a metric with 'route' or `ip route`. What I'm wondering is if there's a Red Hat/CentOS way of assigning a metric in the network-scripts? Answer: [0] (from 2008) works. ex: METRIC=10 Deployment Guides: EL5 [1] and EL6 [2] do not mention metrics on the previous interface configuration pages. *** The output from `ifconfig` does NOT show the metric as I set it, but the output from `route` does. I suppose this is the intended behavior? The default gateway route would have the metric and not the interface. Notice "Metric: 1" and "UG 10" below. >From my test box (EL6): ~]# ifconfig eth0 | grep ric; route -n | grep G UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 0.0.0.0 192.168.X.Y 0.0.0.0 UG 10 0 0 eth0 [0] http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/rhel-fedora-centos-setup-routing-metric-networ… [1] https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/h… [2] https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/h… Have a great day, -- ---~~.~~--- Mike // SilverTip257 //

add CA to centos clients
by Natxo Asenjo 17 Feb '13

17 Feb '13

hi, I need to deploy an internal CA to our hosts. Fedora is planning something I could use now http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/SharedSystemCertificates but it is not there yet ;-) I already have a deploying infrastructure (cfengine), so my question is: what files do I need to move around for a systemwide installation? The obvious start point will be /etc/PKI/ but in there in a random client I already see some problems: ls -l /etc/pki/ total 28 drwxr-xr-x. 6 root root 4096 Aug 23 06:55 CA drwxr-xr-x. 4 root root 4096 Mar 13 2012 dovecot drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Mar 11 2012 java drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Feb 8 10:46 nssdb drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Oct 25 23:06 rpm-gpg drwx------. 2 root root 4096 Jun 22 2012 rsyslog drwxr-xr-x. 5 root root 4096 Oct 25 23:07 tls For ldap queries, I need to add it in /etc/openldap/certs and run cacertdir_rehash. But there are lots of other apps that have their own configuration. I guess I am not the first to have to do this, but google found little info about this. Have you guys gone through such a project and would you care sharing your solutions? Thanks! -- Groeten, natxo

cheap cloud providors
by Tim Dunphy 17 Feb '13

17 Feb '13

Hey guys, Apologies in advance if this question is in poor taste. But I've really fallen in love with learning about the cassanrdra database. The only problem is that it doesn't run very well on an t1.micro instance at amazon and the larger sizes are quite expensive. An m1.small can do the trick, while still not optimal. So I was wonder if there was any real value in the cloud or even VPS world where I could setup a small Cassandra ring and go to town learning the ins and outs of how it operates.

17 Feb '13

Every time I go to http://bugs.centos.org/my_view_page.php I am shown, under "Reported by me", three problems with the CentOS Bacula packages which I reported in 2011, complete with proposed fix, but which never got any love (status still "new"): 0005271 missing dependency mt-st bacula - 2011-11-28 12:44 0005261 make_catalog_backup.pl creates .my.cnf with bad mode bacula - 2011-11-24 11:19 0005260 bad symlink /usr/sbin/dbcheck bacula - 2011-11-24 11:08 As I have since switched to Simone Caronni's better maintained Bacula packages I would prefer not to be constantly reminded of that useless effort anymore. So I'd like to close them as "nobody cares" or something like that to get them off my radar. Any hints how I can do that? TIA T. -- Tilman Schmidt Phoenix Software GmbH Bonn, Germany

updating a Centos 6 lamp stack
by David Mehler 16 Feb '13

16 Feb '13

Hello, I've got a new centos 6 system it's i386 and I'm wanting to update it's lamp stack, specifically httpd, php, and mysql. Also, if postfix as an MTA would be available that's a plus. I've checked out the centos wiki and it looks like I have two choices for third party repos for this task. I have enabled rpmforge as of now. The two repos I'm seeing are Les RPM de Remi repository, and IUS Community Repo. I'm wanting from user's who have used either or both impressions, pro conn of both and which you'd prefer. Thanks. Dave.

apcupsd, odd behavior
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 16 Feb '13

16 Feb '13

As we have every day, we had a power blip overnight. one, at least, of the servers connected to a SmartUPS via cable, announced that "power exhausted, initiating shutdown" (which I've disabled). The thing is, I know the servers on that UPS draw a ridiculous amount of power, but I don't see that on the others... and this was three seconds, not minutes, after it announced there was a power outage. Has anyone else seen this behavior? mark

OT: UPS battery vendor, cont'd
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 16 Feb '13

16 Feb '13

Here's the state of my search: BatteriesPlus is... odd. The corporate site, and after a phone call, tell me they don't do GSA, but some of their franchises do. I called the local one, and they do. However, the only RBC 43 they offer, I might as well buy direct from APC, at well over $300 for the set. Battery Sharks, and Apex, don't do GSA... but they *do* offer replacements for about $100 for the set. Having checked with my manager, we'll try the open market quotes. I would like a third recommendation, so I can offer purchasing three quotes. Recommendations? And thanks to all. mark

Really changing the hostname
by Robert Moskowitz 16 Feb '13

16 Feb '13

I need to change the host name on a test server, and in the past when I used hostname to change the hostname, it did not seem to change it everywhere. I really don't want to do a rebuild just yet, but I have to feel confident that hostname is really changed (reboot is not too much of an issue). What is the recommened practice? Other than get it right the first time.

No, it is anaconda or kudzu magic that happens before you would get to a GUI even if you used one.

It is as much work to remove them as to use them as the starting point when adding the rest of the settings. Except maybe in your unusual case of knowing a running system is going to be moved/cloned to known new MACs. > i said nothing more and nothing less if you go back in > the thread and if you do not understand this be happy > with write MAC addresses twice at every change, i keep > on doing no useless copy of config-settings and that > i made some undret dist-upgrades in a few years without > production shows that i am right and know what i am doing Sure, but there is always more than one way to do things.

But if you want it to be change, why not complain upstream where a change is possible. As things are, you have to edit the ifcfg-? files anyway and it's not that big a deal to put what the system expects in there.

Nothing to do with what happens at ifup time. Things would already be broken by then, though. I do see how not using the same names the kernel would auto-assign would avoid the race problem, but I'm not sure it happens in CentOS.

OT: LSI SAS1068e / Perc6/iR RAID Health
by SilverTip257 15 Feb '13

15 Feb '13

Is anybody here monitoring Dell SAS6/iR RAID health? I have a mix of CentOS 5.9 and 6.3 installs on the PE1950s. I'm finding drivers and Megaraid Storage Manager downloads via LSI's site, but I'd prefer not to install a bunch of crapware. All I need is the proper LSI daemon which exports info via SNMP. I've used check_sasraid_megaraid Nagios script [0] in the past for PERC5i and PERC6i controllers in Dell PE2950s. For 2950s I've only had to install sas_snmp-3.11-0003.i386.rpm from LSI to get rolling. I've tried installing parts from the MSM zip/tarball mess to install only the lsi_mrdsnmpd daemon (lsi_mrdsnmpagent). PERC5i = LSI 8048e (megaraid) PERC6i = LSI SAS 1078 (megaraid) SAS6/iR = LSI SAS 1068e (mptfusion) [0] http://wleibzon.bol.ucla.edu/nagios/ [1] http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2009-November/085215.html Thanks for any nudges in the right direction. -- ---~~.~~--- Mike // SilverTip257 //

I suppose to future proof myself it would be wise to still run "chkconfig network on"; it hurts nothing if on and could save me if a future release is shipped defaulted off. hmmm. I did set network on in my kickstart to do a netinstall; maybe that is why network is on now? Doesn't matter, I suppose.

Hello I've changed from Ms Windows 2008 R2 to CentOS 6 recently, and there are many aspects to learn in relation to command line ( Bash scripting, package system managing, file system and so on )... I need to apply as much as I can of Network Infrastructure knowledge ( DNS, DHCP and Virtualization .... ) concepts using CentOS 6 GUI... I know that I must learn dealing with linux using command tools and that will come, but it has much more of time, so, Am I forced as a learner to follow command line tools before going to GUI or I can get a good knowledge and experience by implementing my skills on GUI ? So sorry to pothering.... All the best...

routing problem?
by Natxo Asenjo 15 Feb '13

15 Feb '13

hi, at home I have setup a kvm virtualization lab. I have a layer 3 switch, a host with 3 nics and centos 6.3. In the layer 3 switch I have setup a couple of vlans: vlan 1 (default), 5 (quarantaine) and 10 (out-of-band-management). nic0 is configured in the switch as a trunk interface that sees all vlans. nic2 is an access port on vlan 5 and nic1 is not yet in the picture ;-) eth0 is bridged to br0. It also has the host default gateway. I have also created eth0.5, br0.5, eth0.10 and br0.10 interfaces to add vm's to vlan 5 and 10 and that works, I can successfully create vms and assign them to br0.5 or br0.10 and they get ip's from a dchp server in the correct network and their traffic is correctly routed in the switch (inter vlan routing works). I can access the vms from my workstation on on vlan 1. Now I configure eth2 with an ip address in the range of vlan 5 (in the switch it is an access port in vlan 5). This is the ifcfg-eth2 file: DEVICE="eth2" HWADDR="00:15:17:51:B8:AB" IPV6INIT="no" BOOTPROTO=none MTU="1500" NM_CONTROLLED="no" ONBOOT="yes" IPADDR=192.168.5.10 NETMASK=255.255.255.0 # GATEWAY=192.168.5.254 The GATEWAY parameter is now commented out, but it does not matter. The interface on the virtualization host comes up all right. But I cannot access it from my workstation on vlan 1 when accessing it to vlan 5. >From the virtualization host I can reach the switch vlan 5 interface which is its gateway. From the switch I can also ping the interface eth2. The routing table on the virt host: # route -n Kernel IP routing table Destination Gateway Genmask Flags Metric Ref Use Iface 192.168.5.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth2 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 br0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1003 0 0 eth2 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1016 0 0 br0 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1018 0 0 br_v10 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 1020 0 0 br_v5 0.0.0.0 192.168.0.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 br0 Do you have any tips on how to reach vlan 5 on the virt host from vlan 1? -- Groeten, natxo

Selinux blocking bind access to named/data and slave directories

I was getting permission errors (seen in /var/log/messages) in accessing these two directories within my chroot tree. I was pulling out what little hair I have, as the permissions were identical to those on my Centos 5.5 server. So I switched selinux into permissive mode and now I have /var/named/chroot/var/named/data/named.run and my ..../named/slave/ stubs. What is the selinux magic to allow bind to write here?

I am planning to increase the disk space on my desktop system. It is running CentOS 5.9 w/XEN. I have two 160Gig 2.5" laptop (2.5") SATA drives in two slots of a 4-slot hot swap bay configured like this: Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 125 1004031 fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/sda2 126 19457 155284290 fd Linux raid autodetect Disk /dev/sdb: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 * 1 125 1004031 fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/sdb2 126 19457 155284290 fd Linux raid autodetect sauron.deepsoft.com% cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid1] md0 : active raid1 sdb1[1] sda1[0] 1003904 blocks [2/2] [UU] md1 : active raid1 sdb2[1] sda2[0] 155284224 blocks [2/2] [UU] unused devices: <none> That is I have two RAID1 arrays: a small (1Gig) one mounted as /boot and a larger 148Gig one that is a LVM Volume Group (which contains a pile of file systems, some for DOM0 and some that are for other VMs). What I plan on doing is getting a pair of 320Gig 2.5" (laptop) SATA disks and fail over the existing disks to this new pair. I believe I can then 'grow' the second RAID array to be like ~300Gig. My question is: what happens to the LVM Volume Group? Will it grow when the RAID array grows? Or should I leave /dev/md1 its current size and create a new RAID array and add this as a second PV and grow the Volume Group that way? The documentation is not clear as to what happens -- the VG is marked 'resisable'. sauron.deepsoft.com% sudo pvdisplay --- Physical volume --- PV Name /dev/md1 VG Name sauron PV Size 148.09 GB / not usable 768.00 KB Allocatable yes PE Size (KByte) 4096 Total PE 37911 Free PE 204 Allocated PE 37707 PV UUID ttB15B-3eWx-4ioj-TUvm-lAPM-z9rD-Prumee sauron.deepsoft.com% sudo vgdisplay --- Volume group --- VG Name sauron System ID Format lvm2 Metadata Areas 1 Metadata Sequence No 65 VG Access read/write VG Status resizable MAX LV 0 Cur LV 17 Open LV 12 Max PV 0 Cur PV 1 Act PV 1 VG Size 148.09 GB PE Size 4.00 MB Total PE 37911 Alloc PE / Size 37707 / 147.29 GB Free PE / Size 204 / 816.00 MB VG UUID qG8gCf-3vou-7dp2-Ar0B-p8jz-eXZF-3vOONr -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 / heller(a)deepsoft.com Deepwoods Software -- http://www.deepsoft.com/ () ascii ribbon campaign -- against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org -- against proprietary attachments
