Trying to connect to http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5.5/ is quite sporadic. Anyone else on the list noticed this?

input/output error while copy
by Ritika Garg 14 Jan '11

14 Jan '11

When I give the command "cp file1 file2" then the error comes: cp: cannot create regular file `file2': Input/output error This occurs sometimes and it occurs when I am giving the command inside a external hard disk which is mounted by "ntfs-3g" manually. Why does this error come?

Centos Kernel Source Repo?
by Keith Roberts 14 Jan '11

14 Jan '11

Where's the repo for downloading the Centos 5.5 kernel sources? It's not in CentOS-Base.repo I'd like to install the source code for the current Centos 5.5 kernel, and create some customised kernels.

Can you recommend the steps that need to be taken in the CLI?

First, I think I'd clean all; then, it may be that you need to add another repository. Finally, you might have to uninstall some stuff, then try to reinstall - I'd do the topmost level (the audio player, say), and let it decide what all it needed.... mark _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

httpd and selinux
by Philippe Naudin 14 Jan '11

Hello, Running httpd-2.2.3-43.el5.centos.3 on CentOS release 5.5 (Final), I have : $ ps -Ze LABEL PID TTY TIME CMD user_u:system_r:httpd_t 12833 ? 00:00:00 httpd Is it normal for httpd to have this context (user_u:system_r:httpd_t) ? I was expecting system_u:system_r:httpd_t. And if it is not normal, is it because I have restarted httpd by hand (service httpd restart), or because I have broken something in my configuration ? Thanks, -- Philippe

Recompiling source rpms for i386, i686 and x86_64 on the same box?

14 Jan '11

At the risk of sounding like an newbie, is is possible to build the RPMS for all architectures on the same box at the same time? I would really like to automate this, so that I can keep track of the RPMS's and build them into my own future repo.

Re: [CentOS] Kernel Errors Present

13 Jan '11

Is it the ITE IT8212 ATA RAID Controller ? I would suspect that raid card - the few I've tried didn't work well even with the manufacturer's supplied windows drivers. The linux drivers might not be any better. I'm not sure why you distrust DMA, or if it's just on this one card that you have problems with it. ATA is being phased out now, it became a very mature and reliable technology its it final years. Motherboards with onboard ATA66/100/133 ports became extremely reliable. As long as you used the 80 wire cables. Unfortunately, a good controller is hard to find. I used to like Promise as a windows controller. They were very reliable if you had the lastest firmware and drivers. But I don't know if they work well in linux, or even how well their current models work. (been a while since I've used one)

variable raid1 rebuild speed?
by Les Mikesell 13 Jan '11

13 Jan '11

I have a 750Gb 3-member software raid1 where 2 partitions are always present and the third is regularly rotated and re-synced (SATA disks in hot-swap bays). The timing of the resync seems to be extremely variable recently, taking anywhere from 3 to 10 hours even if the partition is unmounted and the drives aren't doing anything else and regardless of what I echo into /proc/sys/dev/raid/speed_limit_min or _max. Is there some way to tell if the drives are going bad or speed it up consistently if they aren't? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

dirty screen
by Jerry Geis 13 Jan '11

13 Jan '11

Is there a command that marks the screen as "dirty" and hopefully redraws it? If I do a control ALT F1 and the F7 this in effect redraws the screen. I am getting video artifacts that I think is in the nvidia driver. the switching console works - I was just hoping there is a more convenient way. some command or something. Thanks, Jerry

IPv6, HE tunnel and ip6tables problems
by Stephen Harris 13 Jan '11

13 Jan '11

CentOS 5.5, fully patched. I have a HE tunnel (tunnelbroker.net) IPv6 tunnel. This works pretty well and is simple to setup. Everything works fine. Until I try to set up an ip6tables firewall. eg if I try to view https://dnssec.surfnet.nl/?p=464 then the page never displays and the firewall shows kernel: IN=sit1 OUT=eth0 SRC=2001:0610:0001:40cd:0145:0100:0186:0033 DST=my.machine LEN=80 TC=0 HOPLIMIT=56 FLOWLBL=0 PROTO=TCP SPT=443 DPT=40367 WINDOW=5712 RES=0x00 ACK SYN URGP=0 I also see some DNS issues kernel: IN=sit1 OUT=eth0 SRC=2001:0620:0000:0009:0000:0000:0000:1103 DST=my.machine LEN=542 TC=0 HOPLIMIT=54 FLOWLBL=0 FRAG:1232 ID:0086942f PROTO=UDP (the source address here is ns1.zurich.surf.net) I'm wondering if this is due to fragmentation, but I'm only guessing. The dnssec page refered to above indicates there may be a fragment re-assembly issue causing ip6tables problems. Now I'm a newbie to IPv6 so I might be making a mistake. This is my firewall script. #!/bin/bash IPT6="/sbin/ip6tables" PUBIF="sit1" LOCAL="eth0" echo "Starting IPv6 firewall..." $IPT6 -F $IPT6 -X $IPT6 -t mangle -F $IPT6 -t mangle -X #unlimited access to loopback $IPT6 -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT $IPT6 -A OUTPUT -o lo -j ACCEPT # Defaults $IPT6 -P INPUT DROP $IPT6 -P OUTPUT ACCEPT $IPT6 -P FORWARD DROP both() { $IPT6 -A INPUT $@ $IPT6 -A FORWARD $@ } # Allow full outgoing connection but no incomming stuff both -i $LOCAL -j ACCEPT both -i $PUBIF -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT # allow incoming ICMP ping pong stuff both -p ipv6-icmp -j ACCEPT # IP6 DNS both -i $PUBIF -p tcp --destination-port 53 -j ACCEPT both -i $PUBIF -p udp --destination-port 53 -j ACCEPT both -i $PUBIF -p tcp --source-port 53 -j ACCEPT both -i $PUBIF -p udp --source-port 53 -j ACCEPT # IP6 from known good machine that I want to access internal network both -i $PUBIF -p tcp --source remote.machine -j ACCEPT both -i $PUBIF -p udp --source remote.machine -j ACCEPT # log and drop everything else both -i $PUBIF -j LOG both -i $PUBIF -j DROP It might be that I need to compile a generic kernel; apparently > 2.6.20 fixes a number of ip6tables issues; CentOS 5 is based on 2.6.18. Maybe CentOS 6 (*nudge nudge*) will work :-) I'm not sure I want to leave my home network on IPv6 without a firewall; not sure I trust all the machines I have on local network to be safe from remote probes! I wonder if anyone has any suggestions... Thanks! -- rgds Stephen

RAID configuration suggestion???
by mcclnx mcc 12 Jan '11

12 Jan '11

we have several DELL R900 with PERC 6/E adapter in it. R900 using Redhat Linux. Each R900 have two PERC 6/E adapter and at least two MD1000 connect to it. Configuration 1: PERC 6/E -- two MD1000 PERC 6/E -- empty Configuration 2: PERC 6/E -- MD1000 PERC 6/E -- MD1000 Normally first MD1000 for database and second MD1000 for nightly backup. My co-worker told me there is NO difference on performance or battery life on botn configurations. I would like listen to your opinion on follwoing: 1. which configuration have better performance? 2. put two MD1000 on same PERC 6/E adapter will cause battery life shorter? 3. other comment?

ext4 or XFS
by aurfalien＠gmail.com 12 Jan '11

12 Jan '11

Hi all, I've a 30TB hardware based RAID array. Wondering what you all thought of using ext4 over XFS. I've been a big XFS fan for years as I'm an Irix transplant but would like your opinions. This 30TB drive will be an NFS exported asset for my users housing home dirs and other frequently accessed files. - aurf

Bonding performance question
by lhecking＠users.sourceforge.net 12 Jan '11

12 Jan '11

I have a Dell server with four bonded, gigabit interfaces. Bonding mode is 802.3ad, xmit_hash_policy=layer3+4. When testing this setup with iperf, I never get more than a total of about 3Gbps throughput. Is there anything to tweak to get better throughput? Or am I running into other limits (e.g. was reading about tcp retransmit limits for mode 0). The iperf test was run with iperf -s on the server, and iperf -c server on four clients connected to the same switch. ------------------------------------------------------------ Server listening on TCP port 5001 TCP window size: 85.3 KByte (default) ------------------------------------------------------------ [ 4] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.184 port 48588 [ 5] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.187 port 49231 [ 6] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.188 port 53197 [ 7] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.189 port 55309 [ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth [ 4] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.10 GBytes 941 Mbits/sec [ 5] 0.0-10.0 sec 872 MBytes 728 Mbits/sec [ 6] 0.0-10.0 sec 318 MBytes 267 Mbits/sec [ 7] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.10 GBytes 939 Mbits/sec [ 8] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.184 port 48589 [ 4] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.187 port 49234 [ 5] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.188 port 38864 [ 6] local 10.10.15.193 port 5001 connected with 10.10.15.189 port 55311 [ 8] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.10 GBytes 941 Mbits/sec [ 4] 0.0-10.0 sec 862 MBytes 721 Mbits/sec [ 5] 0.0-10.0 sec 322 MBytes 270 Mbits/sec [ 6] 0.0-10.0 sec 1.10 GBytes 939 Mbits/sec --------------------------------------------------------------- This message and any attachments may contain Cypress (or its subsidiaries) confidential information.

parted usage
by aurfalien＠gmail.com 12 Jan '11

12 Jan '11

Hello again, Been an interesting day. I'm attempting to use parted to create a partition on a 28TB volume which consists of 16x2TB drives configuired in a Raid 5 + spare, so total unformatted size is 28TB to the OS.. However upon entering parted, and making a gpt label, print reports back as follows; Model: Areca ARC-1680-VOL#000 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdc: 2199GB Sector Size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: gpt Why is the disk reporting ~2TB? Should I be using another partitioning tool for such a large volume? - aurf

Hi guys, I've been working on a yum repo for PHP 5.2 and today I wanted to update it[1], however on a test machine using my PHP packages (e.g. php-common-5.2.16-1nux) a yum update to the new RPMs with version 5.2.17 gives the following error: "Error: Package tuple ('php-common', 'i386', '0', '5.2.17', '1nux') could not be found in packagesack".

Re: [CentOS] Set font and size in xterm
by James B. Byrne 10 Jan '11

10 Jan '11

I now have fonts! I added the font directories found by /usr/sbin/chkfontpath to the Files Section of the /etc/X11/xorg.conf and following a restart things began to work. The system startup script for xfs makes reference to a /tmp/.font-unix directory. An error message appears on the boot details screen to the effect that lstat reports /tmp/.font-unix does not exist but I can find no reference to this error in any of the logs. After startup I can find that directory but it is empty. I have no idea how this is supposed to work but I suspect that the dynamic discovery and addition of the font directories is failing for some reason. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

It really does seem to come down to the fact that xfs is not finding the fonts and that therefore only the default fonts are left available to XTerm. I have tried configuring the FontPath argument in xorg.conf but all that manages to do is to stop the xserver from starting at all. I looked into the rc script and to me it is a nightmare. To begin with, instead of just configuring the font directories the startup script runs a font locater utility /usr/sbin/chkfontpath. When run from the command line this yields these results: /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled /usr/share/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled /usr/share/X11/fonts/100dpi:unscaled /usr/share/X11/fonts/Type1 /usr/share/X11/fonts/TTF /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1 /usr/share/fonts/webcore But when I run xset q I do not see these listed: Font Path: built-ins Bug Mode: compatibility mode is disabled DPMS (Energy Star): Standby: 0 Suspend: 0 Off: 0 DPMS is Enabled Monitor is On Font cache: Server does not have the FontCache Extension File paths: Config file: /etc/X11/xorg.conf Modules path: /usr/lib64/xorg/modules Log file: /var/log/Xorg.0.log I would appreciate some guidance on how to proceed from this point. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

Set font and size in xterm
by James B. Byrne 10 Jan '11

10 Jan '11

I have a situation where gnome console does not handle vt102 escape sequences properly and therefor need to employ xterm instead. When I run xterm from a gnome terminal window I am presented with an extremely small terminal window employing an almost unreadably small font. I have attempted to set the font size using xrdb and a custom .Xresources file. I can change the colour scheme. I can create a scrollbar. I can move the scrollbar to either the right or left window margin. What I cannot do is to change the font size. When I do xfontsel I get this error: Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion and I see only four fonts listed in the application window, all of them small and none with a point size of greater than 12.0.! If I do fc-cache -f -v I see 14+ font directories containing more than 100 fonts # fc-cache -f -v /usr/share/fonts: caching, 0 fonts, 7 dirs /usr/share/fonts/bitmap-fonts: caching, 31 fonts, 0 dirs /usr/share/fonts/bitstream-vera: caching, 10 fonts, 0 dirs . . . fc-cache: succeeded but I also see lots of this: /var/cache/fontconfig: invalid cache file: f93b699072f38b46be29013fc93f1bbe-x86.cache-2 /var/cache/fontconfig: invalid cache file: 7ddba6133ef499da58de5e8c586d3b75-x86.cache-2 I really need some help sorting this out.

Terminal with variable sized font
by Frank Cox 10 Jan '11

10 Jan '11

Using gnome-terminal and the like, you can set the font size that you want and then if you drag the window larger or smaller, you get more or less character per line. Is there a terminal that allows you to set the rows and columns that you want and then resizes the text instead? gnome-terminal has a zoom-in and zoom-out function that's close to what I want but it's not "infinite" and works by repeatedly hitting hotkeys, not by changing the window size. The objective here is to use ncurses-based programs and be able to "blow them up" by dragging the terminal window bigger or clicking the maximize button. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ www.melvilletheatre.com www.creekfm.com - FIFTY THOUSAND WATTS of POW WOW POWER!

One RHEV H and one running XP with two VMs uner VMware WS. One VM is openfiler for iscsi storage and another VM w2k3 for RHEVM. Search in foogle for the error "Network conenction error 5022" does not allow creation of the storage domain with couple of iscsi storage (openfiler) targets. I troubled google uncle for answers but perhaps is angry with me. sigh. And I know only *ONE* list which knows all the correct answers: centos [at] centos.org </rant> Thanks for any pointers.

Hello, I'm trying to use helper variables like %{rhel} in a .SPEC file on CentOS (as they are defined in RHEL and Fedora [1]), but it seems they are not available. Is there any way to detect automatically CentOS release from a .SPEC file in a RPM build process? As a workaround, I use this hack: %if 0%{?rhel} >= 5 (..) %endif And when calling rpmbuild I use a conditional build, like: $ rpmbuild -ba --clean --define "rhel 5" Regards, [1] http://goo.gl/dkGUg -- Santi Saez

389 Directory Server & CentOS
by Edgar Valdes 10 Jan '11

10 Jan '11

Hello Everyone, I was wondering if anyone out there has successfully implemented 389 as a replacement or to support to a windows AD environment. I'm just starting to toy around with it in a few vm's and trying to get a feel for integrating the two together. So far I have the 389 up now I'm just working on connecting a dummy user to authenticate with it along with populating and talking with a dummy AD server. Any insights/suggestions/opinions/recommendations would be appreciated, especially before I get waste deep. Regards, Edgar Valdes

Could not setup Speed and Duplex on CentOS 5.5
by Sikkandar Dulkarnai 10 Jan '11

10 Jan '11

Greetings, I recently installed CentOS 5 on Dell PE 1750 server. I have noticed that the speed and duplex settings are 100 Half Duplex. I tried to change the duplex settings to full, but no success. I got the error message "Cannot get current device settings: Operation not supported". Does anyone else experience this issue?. Below is the error message and some more details about my box. Any help will be highly appreciated.

Q about dpi, fonts, gnome, Xorg etc
by Bob Hepple 10 Jan '11

10 Jan '11

This has been puzzling me for some time and despite bothering Auntie Google rather a lot, I've yet to find a satisfying answer. As an old-time (since 1981) unix and X guy, I've generally been fairly well-able to get fonts to behave in a rational manner. My needs are pretty simple - I just want 8-point (or 9-point etc) fonts to appear on the screen as 8-point font - ie more or less 8 * 1/72 inches = 2.82mm high. More or less, I'm not insisting it be exact, but at least not 1mm or 5mm high. In the (glorious) past I was able to look at xdpyinfo |egrep 'dimension| resolution' and check that Xorg was giving something reasonable.. eg dimensions: 1600x1200 pixels (423x317 millimeters) resolution: 96x96 dots per inch So far so good. With this new fangled gnome and fontconfig stuff, you also need to set up some X-resources with: xrdb -query |grep Xft Xft.antialias: 1 Xft.dpi: 96 Xft.hinting: 1 Xft.hintstyle: hintfull Xft.rgba: none ... and to inform gnome-settings-daemon with gnome-appearance-properties->Font->Details->dpi which is the same as: gconftool-2 -s --type float /desktop/gnome/font_rendering/dpi 96 It's that last step that bothers me - it's not "per display", so if I log in using a different X-server eg using VNC, I might well have a completely different dpi. For example, my home monitor is a good-old CRT with 152 dpi. I use 144 dpi as a multiple of 12 but if I log in through vnc without changing /desktop/gnome/font_rendering/dpi, the fonts are just wrong, wrong, wrong. If I then fix things up in that VNC session, when I come back to the physical monitor at 96 dpi, things are again wrong, until I fix it up again. But then the VNC session(s) are wrong. My question is this - surely there's a way to tell gconf/gnome that my dpi setting is for DISPLAY X. Please tell me it's not just a global setting for all displays!!

Do you know where I can find extensive information how the mechanism of updates works. Is there development documentation which shows how the source code works? So far I haven't seen such papers. I'm not experienced developer so I can't trace the source code to see how it works. And I'm going to change to change my web mail soon.
