question on DHCP
by Jerry Geis 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

If a machine with centos 6.2 is set for DHCP and it looses power and the switch looses power for a long time. lets say a day. so the switch really goes off even with batter backup. Now power comes on, the machine asks for a DHCP address before the switch is read as its not back up yet. there is no response and the machine does not get an address. Finally the switch comes back up , the machine has already posted that it Network got an error as there was no DHCP server. Does the machine ever ask again???? or do I have to manually do a server network restart or reboot the machine again. It seems to never ask again. jerry

Centos 5.6 Kernel Panics
by Jonathan Alstead 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

Hello, Recently our dell sc1425 server has been locking up with kernel freezes and required a hard reboot on each occasion. I've looked on the centos forums with limited success - each problem seems slightly different (some failure on high load, some not). Our kernel is 2.6.18-274.17.1.el5 and /var/log/messages show the following errors: Apr 3 12:41:25 sp2 kernel: INFO: task mysqld:15345 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

Centos6 iptables startup vs. restart?
by Les Mikesell 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

What is different about the initial startup of iptables than 'service iptables restart' (and different from C5)? I want to use iptables port redirection to send port 80 to 8080 so a java web service doesn't have to start as root. On C5 it worked to give the iptables commmands, then 'iptables save', and from then on it would automatically work when iptables started after a reboot. With C6, I have the expected entries in /etc/sysconfig/iptables and they are loaded after 'service iptables restart', but the initial startup is doing something else. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

CentOS 6.2 + areca raid + xfs problems
by Tony Schreiner 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

Two weeks ago I (clean-)installed CentOS 6.2 on a server which had been running 5.7. There is a 16 disk = ~11 TB data volume running on an Areca ARC-1280 raid card with LVM + xfs filesystem on it. The included arcmsr driver module is loaded. At first it seemed ok, but with in a few hours I started getting I/O error message on directory listings, and then a bit later when I did a vgdisplay command there was garbage in that. I then ran the volume check on the RAID card bios, it flagged 3 errors. When I restarted the system, things were ok, but then the problem reappeared. I ran another volume check and no errors were flagged (I should note, the check takes about 9 hours). but upon restarting, the file system was ok, but then went bad again. Another symptom was that the cli64 raid management utility, which I got from the Areca site would just hang. After a couple of days of this, I decided I could not afford to have this system unavailable, and I reinstalled CentOS 5.8. Everything has been fine since. Any body else seen anything like this?

I want to install centos 6.2 i386 on a pc with the following specs cpu 1.8 GHz p4 RAM 512 Mbyte HD: IDE 20 GByte i have downloaded netinstall iso and the installer proceeds AUTOMATICALLY in TEXT MODE until the point that i am asked to select the "Type of Installation" where i am presented with the following options ONLY 1) Use all space 2) Replace Existing Linux System 3) Use Free Space the problem is that whatever i choose the installer auto-partitions the hard drive which is something that i do not want. I suspect that due to the low specs of my pc the installer does not enter graphical mode installation which gives the "Create Custom Layout Option" in the "Type of Installation" step. Is this a bug of the installer in text mode and if not is there a workaround in order to be able to create a custom layout ?

called a spammer today
by Bob Hoffman 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

thought you would find this interesting... I get a LOT of political spam on one of my mails due to hosting a political site once. I have been slowly blacklisting the bulk companies and 'the net' of private people pushing political spam. There is one guy who has been sending me stuff for years and I just have it go to the junk folder and deleted..forgot about it. New server, new rules. His came today. I wrote his university a nasty letter. I wrote him a nasty letter. (I had contacted him a few times in the years past to make him stop but he never did.) Well, tonight I got home...looked at his spam. Hey, it had his number on it. So I called him and told him to stop...told him why it bothered me. Told him somethings that happened to me in the past, what I like about websites. all sorts of junk, kept talking and making him listen to me.. He was getting impatient but I said 'now you know what it is like to have your uninteresting cr#p come in my mailbox.' He has agreed to stop spamming me....I told Him I blacklisted him anyway. I felt really good about that call...I think he will rethink his phone number on spam from now on. lol

minute cron
by Mihamina Rakotomandimby 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

Hi all, CentOs has choosen anacron as default cron daemon. I did not look further about the reasons, I think there are some good reasons. I want to create a minute based set of scripts. No much precision required, once a minute more or less 20 sec is OK. Using anacron, how do you recommend to do it? Is anacron the right tool? Otherwise what's the right tool? -- RMA.

transition to ip6
by Bob Hoffman 03 Apr '12

03 Apr '12

I imagine some day in the near future there will be a switch to ipv6. I cannot imagine ever remembering the ip address then...crazy. My question, since i have never done ip6 stuff, is what does that mean on my webservers? Would I just need to replace my ip4 with ip6 in my eths, bonds, bridges, and configuration files...and copy out my iptables to ip6tables, and change the dns servers? all that does not sound to harsh. anything especially daunting to make that switch (save from someone having to do that on 100 computers really fast!!) -bob

CentOS 6.2 vs 6.0
by Boris Epstein 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

Hello listamates, Has anyone tried 6.2? How good is it? Should I specifically download it to install on a new server I am configuring - or is 6.0 good enough in your opinion? Thanks. Boris.

NFS Hanging Under Heavy Load
by Aaron Blew 02 Apr '12

02 Apr '12

Hello all, I'm currently experiencing an issue with an NFS server I've built (a Dell R710 with a Dell PERC H800/LSI 2108 and four external disk trays). It's a backup target for Solaris 10, CentOS 5.5 and CentOS 6.2 servers that mount it's data volume via NFS. It has two 10gig NICs set up in a layer2+3 bond for one network, and two more 10gig NICs set up in the same way in another network. The host has a 99T XFS filesystem for the backups. RPCNFSDCOUNT is set to 256. During backups from clients the system exhibits odd hangs that interfere with some of our sensitive system's backup windows. On the NFS server side we see the following in dmesg. Originally I thought it was related to dirty writeback cache, but I adjusted dirty_writeback_centisecs and am still seeing the issue. dmesg during the problem window: Mar 16 07:01:21 *****store01 kernel: __ratelimit: 11 callbacks suppressed Mar 16 07:01:21 *****store01 kernel: nfsd: page allocation failure. order:2, mode:0x20 Mar 16 07:01:21 *****store01 kernel: Pid: 6041, comm: nfsd Not tainted 2.6.32-220.4.2.el6.x86_64 #1 Mar 16 07:01:21 *****store01 kernel: Call Trace: Mar 16 07:01:21 *****store01 kernel: <IRQ> [<ffffffff81123daf>] ?

Postfix problems with maximum messages size
by James B. Byrne 01 Apr '12

01 Apr '12

CentOS-6.2 I am confused. I need to accept messages somewhat larger than the default 10M allowed by Postfix. However, changing the message_size_limit in /etc/postfix/main.cf is having no effect. Squirrelmail is configured to accept and transmit messages up to 24M and this identical configuration is working on a Sendmail installation. So the problem appears to me to be strictly at Postfix matter. # grep message_size_limit /etc/postfix/* /etc/postfix/main.cf:message_size_limit = 20480000 # postfix reload postfix/postfix-script: refreshing the Postfix mail system # postconf -n | grep size_limit message_size_limit = 20480000 smtp message generated to squirrelmail client Message not sent. Server replied: Requested mail action aborted: exceeding storage allocation 552 5.2.3 Message exceeds maximum fixed size (12000000) What is going on? Why am I unable to have configured limit of 20M take effect? -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

nfslock
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 31 Mar '12

31 Mar '12

I just updated one of our servers to 5.8, and rebooted. In the logs, I saw a bunch of Mar 21 16:29:02 <server> rpc.statd[9783]: recv_rply: can't decode RPC message! Mar 21 16:29:33 <server> last message repeated 442 times Mar 21 16:30:34 <server> last message repeated 835 times Mar 21 16:31:36 <server> last message repeated 884 times Mar 21 16:32:38 <server> last message repeated 856 times Mar 21 16:32:44 <server> last message repeated 111 times I tried restarting nfslock, and that *appears* to have fixed it. Googling, I found a thread about that at <http://nerdbynature.de/s9y/archives/2009/08.html>, which suggests that it's starting too early, possibly before portmap is running. Anyone else see this? Has an old bug snuck back in? mark

Linux on touch screen device
by Nataraj 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

I have poked around in google and have seen a number of youtube videos, but my question is whether anyone really has linux running on any kind of tablet or tablet PC device in such a way that the touch screen can be used productively and it won't take a month to get it running? Initially the two applications that are of most interest to me would be a good web browser (maybe chromium) and thunderbird. I would also like to have a decent on screen keyboard which could be used to ssh to servers in an emergency. I've seen instructions for booting linux on various devices, but many people doing this are using keyboards and not touchscreens. Do applications like thunderbird have to be modified in order to work well with a touch screen or is just getting a working driver for the touchpad sufficient? If anyone has any experience with this I would appreciate knowing what hardware your running on and what linux distro/desktop environment you use. I've been interested in devices like the ASUS EP121 which is a dual core I5, so it wouldn't be necessary to have an ARM distribution. Also the newest Asus transformer prime (arm) which I think is about 2 months away sounds interesting. Nataraj

my spammer list
by Bob Hoffman 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

Hello, Thanks to some nice people on here and other forums I have pretty much finalized my whole mail system on centos 6.x. With all the checks, greylisting, dev/null of any 8+ spam level SA, I still get a few mails. It seems like everytime I enable a new protectant, the mail stops spamming for a few hours...then the spammers decide I am worthy of using better methods against me..and more come. LOL. I am down to just 10-15 a day. Anything that gets through all that I set up now goes to a spammers list that I add to the access file of postfix. http://bobhoffman.com/spammers.html that is the link to my list. I am trying to sort them out into political, real estate, bulk spammers, etc. The worst part is the bulk emailers are not on any black list. It is very hard to find their mail MX until they actually send you one. Many will be blocked, then a new alternate of theirs comes through. I could not find a list of bulk commercial spammers so I thought I would start one. As I progress it will become more defined, but right now a big list with some categories after it. Hope it helps.

IPv6 routing failure on CentOS5
by Steve Snyder 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

I can't get IPv6 routing to configure correctly despite everything I've read saying it should This is my network config on a fully-updated CentOS 5.8 system: # cat /etc/sysconfig/network NETWORKING=yes NETWORKING_IPV6=yes HOSTNAME=my.hostname.com GATEWAY=aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd IPV6_DEFAULTGW=2a02:aaaa.bbbb::1 IPV6_DEFAULTDEV=eth0 # cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 ONBOOT=yes DEVICE=eth0 BOOTPROTO=static HWADDR=52:54:00:68:42:1E IPADDR=000.111.222.333 NETMASK=255.255.255.128 IPV6INIT=yes IPV6ADDR=2a02:aaaa.bbbb:178:209:50:230:0/112 Attempts to use the IPv6 address fail. For example: # ping6 -c 2 2a00:1450:4016:800::1013 connect: Network is unreachable However it works if I manually enter these 2 lines: # route -A inet6 add ::/0 dev eth0 # ip -6 route add 2000::/3 via 2a02:aaaa.bbbb::1 metric 1 # ping6 -c 2 2a00:1450:4016:800::1013 PING 2a00:1450:4016:800::1013(2a00:1450:4016:800::1013) 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 2a00:1450:4016:800::1013: icmp_seq=0 ttl=57 time=91.2 ms 64 bytes from 2a00:1450:4016:800::1013: icmp_seq=1 ttl=57 time=95.3 ms These are the routing table entries added by my hand-added configuration: 2000::/3 via 2a02:418:6a04::1 dev eth0 metric 1 expires 21333054sec mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit 4294967295 default dev eth0 metric 1 expires 21333054sec mtu 1500 advmss 1440 hoplimit 4294967295 So... given the parameters set in my config files, why are the CentOS v5.8 initscripts not configuring my IPv6 routing correctly? One more thing. I get this output on network start up (prior to hand-configuration): Bringing up interface eth0: WARN : [ipv6_add_route] 'No route to host' adding route '::/0' via gateway '2a02:aaaa.bbbb::1' through device 'eth0' Thanks.

RAID-10 vs Nested (RAID-0 on 2x RAID-1s)
by Tim Nelson 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

Greetings- I'm about to embark on a new installation of Centos 6 x64 on 4x SATA HDDs. The plan is to use RAID-10 as a nice combo between data security (RAID1) and speed (RAID0). However, I'm finding either a lack of raw information on the topic, or I'm having a mental issue preventing the osmosis of the implementation into my brain. Option #1: My understanding of RAID10 using 4 drives (now known as a,b,c,d) is: a+b - RAID1 (md0) c+d - RAID1 (md1) md0+md1 - RAID0 (md3) This is of course simplified as /boot needs to be on RAID1 (last I checked Grub couldn't boot from anything other than RAID1). Option #2: I've also found the kernel provides a direct method of RAID10 without the manual assignment of the arrays as noted above. I performed a test installation, selecting RAID10 as the type in the installer, and it "works" but I'm just not seeing the distinction between what disks/partitions are actually the mirror or stripe portion of the array. Details: [root@c6r10tester ~]# mdadm --detail /dev/md1 /dev/md1: Version : 1.1 Creation Time : Thu Mar 29 16:14:17 2012 Raid Level : raid10 Array Size : 36695040 (35.00 GiB 37.58 GB) Used Dev Size : 18347520 (17.50 GiB 18.79 GB) Raid Devices : 4 Total Devices : 4 Persistence : Superblock is persistent Intent Bitmap : Internal Update Time : Thu Mar 29 16:28:49 2012 State : active Active Devices : 4 Working Devices : 4 Failed Devices : 0 Spare Devices : 0 Layout : near=2 Chunk Size : 512K Name : c6r10tester:1 (local to host c6r10tester) UUID : be38645d:4d3c8b77:0f6df687:08016c6a Events : 51 Number Major Minor RaidDevice State 0 8 3 0 active sync /dev/sda3 1 8 19 1 active sync /dev/sdb3 2 8 35 2 active sync /dev/sdc3 3 8 51 3 active sync /dev/sdd3 Am I overthinking this? Does the kernel handle the mirror/stripe configuration under the hood, simply presenting me with a magical RAID10 array? Or, is this something different and I really should be performing the RAID creation manually as noted in option #1? Help me CentOS-Kenobi, you're my only hope. --Tim

Dual Monitor setup on CentOS 6?
by Toralf Lund 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

Hi. Is anyone here running CentOS 6 with dual monitors configured as a single X Screen? I'm trying such a setup on version 5 (again), using NVIDIA TwinView, and it works in many ways, but there are a number of problems that means it's not too usable - the most important one being that there appears to be no way to control which of the displays new applications/windows will appear on. I mean, I don't necessarily need to be able to configure this or anything, but I would at least expect programs to open on the monitor that displaying the menu item or icon or terminal or whatever used for startup, but often they end up on the other one. So I guess my question is, would upgrading to version 6 help? - Toralf This e-mail, including any attachments and response string, may contain proprietary information which is confidential and may be legally privileged.

udev works ok in CentOS 6.x??
by C. L. Martinez 30 Mar '12

30 Mar '12

Hi all, I have strange problem with my persistent names applied to iscsi disks. I have configured an udev rule to assign static iscsi disk names: KERNEL=="sd[a-z]", SUBSYSTEM=="block", PROGRAM="/sbin/scsi_id --whitelisted --replace-whitespace --device=/dev/$name", RESULT=="1iTGTDSK9a2c73ce654d0ca6", NAME="iscsi/sda" KERNEL=="sd[a-z][0-9]*", SUBSYSTEM=="block", PROGRAM="/sbin/scsi_id --whitelisted --replace-whitespace --device=/dev/$name", RESULT=="1iTGTDSK9a2c73ce654d0ca6", NAME="iscsi/sda%n" When udev starts, it seems it works: [root@cossrv01 rules.d]# ls -la /dev/iscsi/sda brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 16 Mar 12 11:42 /dev/iscsi/sda After this, I try to create a lvm volume: [root@cossrv01 rules.d]# pvcreate /dev/iscsi/sda ... and works. But: [root@cossrv01 rules.d]# pvdisplay --- Physical volume --- PV Name /dev/sdb VG Name cmdata PV Size 64.00 GiB / not usable 4.00 MiB Allocatable yes PE Size 4.00 MiB Total PE 16382 Free PE 12542 Allocated PE 3840 PV UUID rSuu5T-VtRl-ffDd-5Vtm-CBhS-UffO-sFgCRX Why? Why pvdisplay doesn't shows /dev/iscsi/sda instead of /dev/sdb?? It is a big problem when multiple iscsi disks are assigned in aleatory form ... and with CentOS 5.x this procedure works out of the box ... (with RHEL6.x doesn't works neither, but it works with RHEL5.x). Thanks.

process accounting on 5.7
by Alan McKay 29 Mar '12

29 Mar '12

Hey folks, I turned on process accounting and had a peek at the man page for dump-acct but I am still left wondering how best to make use of this info. We want to be able to produce some monthly stats on which labs are using how much of our clusters. I know our clustering software has the ability to do this but unfortuantely not everyone uses the cluster commands as much as I keep reminding them. Would be nice to be able to show that user X used Y% of the CPU in a given month. I've been googling but not turning up much more than how to install psacct and run the base commands. thanks, -Alan -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"

How to restrict reboot/poweroff from non-admins?
by Timo Neuvonen 29 Mar '12

29 Mar '12

I just noticed that CentOS (6.2) by default allows any user to reboot/poweroff system without any admin rights, or without any further questions, if using commands 'reboot' or 'poweroff'. But 'shutdown' still requires admin rights. What is the preferred way to restrict any regular user from rebooting / powering off the system (by accident)? IMHO, sudo should be required for this purpose (at least in a system with shared remote access from multiple users, single-user laptops etc may be a different case) -- TiN

One disk speed problem [SOLVED], and a question on hdparm
by m.roth＠5-cent.us 29 Mar '12

29 Mar '12

I believe I've posted before about one of the speed issues we were having, of backups taking many, many hours that should *not* take that long. My manager and I finally nailed it down to the h/d itself. Identical boxes, and he tried a backup of one system which took under two hours, while the same regular one rand nearly six. I'd been googling on and off for weeks, and this morning, ran across something: partition alignment. A thread where someone who'd done some tests and found that was his problem. So, here's the answer: we have these Caviar Green 2tb drives (the thread I found had either a 1tb, or 1.5tb), (and no, we are *NOT* going to buy Caviar Green for servers ever again). The big thing is that they use 4k sectors, *not* 512 bytes. Following directions, I pulled it into fdisk, and then used a command I've not needed before: u. This changes units from cylinders (the default) to sectors. Having done that, p shows that it actually starts in sector 63. Again, following directions, I changed it to start in sector 64. Finished the partition, wrote it, made the filesystem, and tried it out. 177G transferred in 1h 47+m. So, anyone who's got new drives that use 4k sectors should probably follow this. This also probably explains parted's completely aggravating complaint that the partition's not aligned, but gives you no idea *why*, or how to align it - I pulled the drive into parted, and told it to print, and it did *not* complain the partition wasn't aligned. Next trick: hdparm. I want to disable, or at least shove way up, the spindown timeout on these drives, which, depending on the thread you read, is 6 or 8 seconds. hdparm should let me do that... but before I do, I'd like to know what it's set at. Does anyone know how to find that out? And no, the manpage is wrong, hdparm -B <no parm) /dev/sdx does *not* read it, it just complains it's missing the parm. mark

Need help configuring wireless NIC
by Marko Vojinovic 28 Mar '12

28 Mar '12

Hi everyone! :-) Yesterday I managed to find a driver for my USB wireless dongle, and it is now correctly recognized by the kernel. However, I don't know how to configure it. The system-config-network opens up in text mode and is not very forthcoming (it lists ethernet, ISDN and modem as possibilities for configuring a new device). I don't know how to create an /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-whatever manually for my wireless card. NetworkManager doesn't see the device since the ifcfg* script doesn't exist. What am I supposed to do? (Google also didn't help...). The device is listed by lsusb as: # lsusb | grep 802 Bus 001 Device 005: ID 1286:1fab Marvell Semiconductor, Inc. 88W8338 [Libertas] 802.11g The libertas kernel module is loaded: # lsmod | grep liber libertas 105931 0 cfg80211 164625 1 libertas lib80211 4194 1 libertas How do I find out the name of the device, and how do I create the ifcfg script properly? Best, :-) Marko

Re: [CentOS] parallel bash scripts
by Mark LaPierre 28 Mar '12

28 Mar '12

Check out the redirection at the end of each command. 1>&2 redirects the standard out of your child command to the standard error which then appears in the parent shell. At the end the last & launches your command into a background shell and then moves on to launch the next command. The redirections don't care if the command ever terminates. The result is that both commands are launched and the parent shell terminates leaving the standard error attached to the terminal that the parent was launched in.

Odd hang on a 5.6 system
by Ken Smith 27 Mar '12

27 Mar '12

Hi All, I've been trying to trace the cause of a hang on a 5.6 i386 system. After running for almost a year, it hung last week, when I plugged in a screen it was blank, machine was unresponsive to the keyboard, over the network ssh and other daemons didn't respond but the thing has two network cards and routing from one to the other was still working. So the kernel was up and I suspected a dying disk. But smartctl -a revealed nothing untoward. Didn't see anything significant in the log files at the time. Logging had stopped when the machine hung. The machine rebooted normally and has run for almost a week and hung again with the same symptoms. Again rebooted, nothing untoward in the logs and smartctl still OK. But shortly after I left site this was logged in /var/log/messages Mar 27 16:52:04 cjcsrv kernel: INFO: task hald-addon-stor:2179 blocked for more than 120 seconds.

Faster and faster
by Piero 27 Mar '12

27 Mar '12

Hi Centos Team, I was here the hard days in which CentOS 6 appeared would never appear, and then was CentOS 5.6 (maybe 5.7...do not remember well) that struggled to see the light and I was very afraid CentOS would not survive... but as I was worried in the past actually I'm very impressed of the speed of latest releases: what has changed? Just out of curiosity... Thanks for your hard work and great product, Bye Piero -- Stupid is as stupid does. Forrest Gump

Using NFSv3 and NFSv4 at the same time with CentOS6
by C. L. Martinez 27 Mar '12

27 Mar '12

Hi all, I have two centos6.2 servers acting as a nfs servers (nfsv3 for now). Due to some security requeriments, I need to share some folders using nfsv4 (with kerberos auth), but I have a doubt. Is it possible to serve shared folters using nfsv3 and nfsv4 (with kerberos auth) at the same time in the same server with centos6?? Nfsv3 is used to serve storage for three ESXi servers (and these ones only supports nfsv3). How can I do it?? Thanks.

Hi guys. I have mail loop problem. I have master server (CentOS 5.x) for domain in question (lets call it *domainX.com* ). I used virtualmin to set it up for that and several other domains. It is Bind SOA for the domain and Postfix server. I will call this server *soa.domainX.com* Now, I have added internal CentOS 6.x server to the company owner of the domain. I have given it hostname *server.domainX.com* and created *user1* on it. It has Postfix server on it, without public IP, and has *soa.domainX.com* as relay server. What I need to learn is how to set up so mail for *root(a)server.domainX.com* and *user1(a)domainX.com* stay on the *server.domainX.com* and master Postfix on *soa.domainX.com* stops refusing mail for other domains with: "554 5.4.0 Error: too many hops (in reply to end of DATA command)" I am already searching the net, but would appreciate link to howto or hint what to look for, since I mostly find irrelevant hits. Thanks. -- Ljubomir Ljubojevic (Love is in the Air) PL Computers Serbia, Europe Google is the Mother, Google is the Father, and traceroute is your trusty Spiderman...

Script for enabling screen savers in GNOME and KDE on Centos 5.x

Hi Friends, I am trying to configure screensavers settings on Gnome and KDE running Centos 5.x 32-bit environment. I need to prepare a script which will be push by Puppet and this script should be able to change settings like idle_delay, set customized password-protected screen saver, enabling lock etc.. I have tried below commands for Gnome and somehow the settings are not taking place. The users screensavers setting remains the same. Gnome Settings: gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type int --set /apps/gnome-screensaver/idle_delay 4 gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type boolean --set /apps/gnome-screensaver/lock_enabled true gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory --type boolean --set /apps/gnome-screensaver/idle_activation_enabled true gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults --set --type list --list-type=string /apps/gnome-screensaver/themes [blank-only] On KDE I am not able to get what settings should be there for enabling idle_delay, activating the customized password protected screen saver etc.. KDE Settings $ qdbus org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver /ScreenSaver Do let me know whether any more information is required or not. Regards Ankush
