a VNC client suitable to monitor 15 desktops in 1 screen, automatic reconnect. Exists?
by Andres Salazar 17 Feb '10

17 Feb '10

Hello, Is there a VNC client out there that can permit me to run it 15 times simultaneously and scale them smaller so that I can view 15 little remote screens (at the same time) in my one big monitor? Also, is there a way to make it so if the PC is rebooted the client automatically reconnects ? The goal of this is to have one big monitor to view in realtime what people are doing in their PCs. Without interaction from me with the mouse/keyboard.. all I need to do is watch. A plus if this VNC client is compatible with MacOS/windows Andres

SAS raid controllers
by Gordon McLellan 17 Feb '10

17 Feb '10

Is anyone running either the newish Adaptec 5805 or the new LSI (3ware) 9750 sas raid controllers in a production environment with Centos 5.3/5.4? The low price of these cards makes me suspicious, compared to the more expensive pre-merger 3ware cards and considerably more expensive Areca ARC-1680. I've been 'burned' by the low cost of Promise raid cards (just as this group pointed out, they're crap cards!), but I'm still not convinced that most expensive == best. When it comes to parallel scsi cards, Adaptec has always been my choice regardless of platform, but I've never used their serial scsi products. I have several older pre-merger 3ware cards installed and have been working flawlessly for years, but under a windows environment. I noticed none of these manufacturers are listed on the upstream provider's HCL, yet they all eagerly claim "Linux" support on their respective websites.. The Adapetc website actually names both Centos and the upstream provider as 'supported'. Kind Regards, Gordon

Load Balancer (heartbeat, ldirectord, ipvsadm) + Apache Problem
by Roberto HT 17 Feb '10

17 Feb '10

Hi, I'm having this problem with load balancer. I already setup the load balancer and two servers behind it with this kind of topology ----------------------------------------------------- request -> DIRECTOR -- Server 1 \ Server 2 ----------------------------------------------------- DIRECTOR's (RHEL 5) Virtual IP = 192.168.1.1 Server 1's (RHEL 4.4) Virtual IP = 192.168.1.2 Server 2's (CentOS 5.3) Virtual IP = 192.168.1.3 The problem is when I try to hit the 192.168.1.1, it sometimes give me a HTTP 200 and sometimes it will timed out. I hit it using lynx -dump. It should return "Hello world!" if success. But if we hit it directly to 192.168.1.2:80 and 192.168.1.3:80, it will return HTTP 200 which means no error and no timeout. Since the Server 1 is the same as Server 2 in configuration, are there somethings I missed here? Another information is that I set the director using round robin algorithm, so everytime a successful hit returned from server 1, the next one is surely heading to Server 2 right? Based on the Apache's access log, I also knew that the timed out occured when it is the Server 2's turn to handle the request. Aside from the same httpd.conf and the same httpd version are there any things in the system level, kernel level that should be the same between those two servers? Thanks. Roberto

17 Feb '10

Setting up a new backuppc for a small group of device and I am running centos 5.4 with winbind setup and working. Everything is working and I would like the users to authenicate using their AD creds and was wondering what folks are using to do that with apache 2.2 and centos 5.4.

being used to mysql 5.1 on my fedora system, i'm suddenly looking after a centos 5.4 box with mysql 5.0.77. before i start digging into the mysql 5.0-5.1 changelog, do i have a lot to worry about in terms of mentally backing up one version? or is simply upgrading the centos box to mysql 5.1 an option?

I can just remove the: session optional pam_mount.so from system-auth which seem to work fine. Even the share is unmounted successfully on logout. So my question is: what is the session entry used for within pam_mount (as the usage is suggested in the man page and in the docs)? Best Regards Marcus

Following on from my previous, I removed the perl-Date-Manip and re-installed the Centos base perl-DateManip package.

Serial Port or USB monitoring / Logging
by Gregory P. Ennis 15 Feb '10

15 Feb '10

Dear List, I have a piece of equipment that sends data or reports data via a serial or usb port. I would like to connect this piece of equipment to a serial or usb port of a Centos 5.4 machine and capture the report information. I thought this would be an easy perl task, but since I have not completed the objective ... it has not been easy yet. Do any of you have any perl scripts that do this? I would like to look at your logic either for a serial or usb port. Thanks in advance!!!! Greg Ennis

where is MySQL-zrm-client rpm package?
by Robert P. J. Day 15 Feb '10

15 Feb '10

i was looking at options for backing up mysql databases across the net, and ran across this: http://www.zmanda.com/download-zrm.php clearly, there are two rpms for linux: * MySQL-zrm-2.2.0-1.noarch.rpm * MySQL-zrm-client-2.2.0-1.noarch.rpm but on a centos 5.4 system, if i do # yum search zrm i see only "MySQL-zrm.noarch". anyone know why the centos repo would only know about one of those packages? i suspect that, to be safe, i should download the ones from the zmanda site. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.

xterm clones on VNC problem
by Emmanuel Noobadmin 15 Feb '10

15 Feb '10

I've been scratching my head over this one after setting up VNC on another existing server. Followed the instructions here http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/VNC-Server as usual. It worked initially. However since this server is going to be installed in a rather inconvenient place and having done pretty stupid things before, I decided for the first time to try the portion that says # Add the following line to ensure you always have an xterm available. ( while true ; do xterm ; done ) & So that I don't inevitably do something like kill kde and find myself unable to do anything. The problem now is, for some reason, I get 4 xterm window after restarting (or stop/start) vncserver. The symptoms now are 1. Consistently, of the four xterms window, #3 and #4 can be closed. #1 and #2 will resurrect themselves. *** Removing the while loop from /home/user/.vnc/xstartup does not change this. 2. if I comment out this line in /home/user/.vnc/xstartup exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc I will not get this problem. At least there will only be one xterm window in what I think is the primitive twm desktop. 3. If I then uncomment the xinitrc line, I get back 4 xterms window after restarting vncserver. It's like KDE is somehow insisting on running that while loop even after I've deleted it from the xstartup file. How do I fix this? Admittedly I could simply minimize the two xterm windows and/or switch virtual desktop and ignore them. but obviously something is wrong and it makes me uncomfortable. Everything is 5.3 standard, I've not touched the default X11 config nor xinitrc. Except I did do an yum update to current.

How to remove an entry in the media table
by Todd Cary 13 Feb '10

13 Feb '10

I messed up the other day when I did a rsync backup to my usb external drive *but* forgot to mount it (turn it on). So the system appears to have renamed the correct one (external) to usbdrive1 and created a directory on the HD, usbdrive. It has been well over a year since I made that error and have forgotten the location and name of the table that contains the usbdrive and usbdrive1 entries. As I recall, I need to edit the table by removing the usbdrive entry and renaming usbdrive1 to usbdrive. Guidance is welcomed....

Login timed out after 60 seconds
by Paul Heinlein 12 Feb '10

12 Feb '10

A server at work today appeared unresponsive to all network traffic. The machine in question doesn't have a k/v/m terminal; it's configured to use a serial console. So I connected to the serial console and got /etc/issue (with all the \char sequences properly expanded). At the login: prompt I typed root and pressed Enter. Several seconds went by before the Password: prompt was displayed. I typed the password and soon saw Login timed out after 60 seconds At which point /etc/issue and the login: prompt reappeared. Later investigation revealed the load average was hovering around 100, so it's unlikely the machine would be able to process the username and password in under a minute. I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to lengthen that timeout value from 60 to, say, 180. This isn't the first time I've wanted to kill a runaway process and been unable to get a console because of that timeout. -- Paul Heinlein <> heinlein(a)madboa.com <> http://www.madboa.com/

Slightly broken audio on USB headset?
by tony＠softins.clara.co.uk 12 Feb '10

12 Feb '10

I have a Logitech USB headset which I have used very successfully on Windows for a long time. The other day I thought I would try it out on my CentOS 5 server, which doesn't have its own sound hardware (HP ML110). On plugging it in, all the required modules magically got loaded, and the "play" command would play sound files as expected. However, at all times when playing a sound file there was a ticking sound two or three times a second, as if there were regular discontinuities in the audio. Apart from the ticking, the sound quality was fine. Can anyone suggest what I should look at to start diagnosing and fixing this issue?

what causes CUPS to dis-enable a printer?
by Paul Johnson 12 Feb '10

12 Feb '10

In our computer lab, there are 6 Centos 5.4 workstations. There is an HP printer with jet direct card. It often works. But sometimes users come and get me saying the printer is broken, but it is actually working fine for *most* of the workstations. On the troubled system, I run system-config-printer and I check the printer in question (under properties) and I see the printer has been disabled. I mean, the box by the word Enabled is empty. After I manually (use lprm) remove the print jobs, and set the printer to Enabled, then the print queue will start working again. I've checked the files in /var/log/cups and there's nothing evident. error_log has nothing. We have had the problem during the year (that others have reported in this list). When trying to print some pdf files from Evince, the symptom of the problem is that the pdf files don't print. They seem to "clog" the printer. When that happens, I have seen the Enabled box come unchecked in the printer configurator. However, the most recent problems are not associated with the use of Evince. I would really appreciate some tips about how to bugshoot this problem. pj ps. The Cups server is running on the system in question, lpq shows lots of print jobs waiting. -- Paul E.

Mount USB disk at startup?
by Mogens Kjaer 11 Feb '10

11 Feb '10

I have a CentOS 5 machine with an external 500G USB disk, formatted with JFS. How do I get this to mount automatically at boot time? If I add to /etc/fstab: /dev/sdb1 /var/video jfs defaults 1 2 fsck.jfs complains at boot time: Error: Cannot open device /dev/sdb1 Usage: fsck.jfs ... ... Give root password for maintenance ... If I log in with the root password, /dev/sdb1 is present, and I can run fsck.jfs -f /dev/sdb1 without problems. After ctrl-D it reboots, and gives the above error again. I have to log in as root, remount,rw / and remove the /dev/sdb1 line from /etc/fstab to get it to boot. The problem is not related to JFS; it occurs with an external ext3 file system as well. How do I mount /dev/sdb1 automatically at boot?

disk I/O problems with LSI Logic RAID controller
by Fernando Gleiser 11 Feb '10

11 Feb '10

we're having a weird disk I/O problem on a 5.4 server connected to an external SAS storage with an LSI logic megaraid sas 1078. The server is used as a samba file server. Every time we try to copy some large file to the storage-based file system, the disk utilization see-saws up to 100% to several seconds of inactivity, to climb up again to 100% and so forth. Here are a snip from the iostat -kx 1: Device: rrqm/s wrqm/s r/s w/s rkB/s wkB/s avgrq-sz avgqu-sz await svctm %util sdb1 0.00 133811.00 0.00 1889.00 0.00 513660.00 543.84 126.24 65.00 0.47 89.40 sdb1 0.00 138.61 0.00 109.90 0.00 29845.54 543.14 2.54 54.32 0.37 4.06 sdb1 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 sdb1 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 sdb1 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 sdb1 0.00 134680.00 0.00 1920.00 0.00 526524.00 548.46 126.06 64.57 0.47 90.00 sdb1 0.00 142.00 0.00 74.00 0.00 20740.00 560.54 1.25 45.14 0.47 3.50 sdb1 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 sdb1 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 sdb1 0.00 0.00 1.00 0.00 4.00 0.00 8.00 0.01 14.00 14.00 1.40 sdb1 0.00 116129.00 1.00 1576.00 4.00 434816.00 551.45 125.47 75.38 0.57 90.30 sdb1 0.00 17301.98 0.00 412.87 0.00 106506.93 515.93 24.59 75.40 0.48 19.80 sdb1 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 sdb1 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 sdb1 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 It happens when I copy a file over the net using samba or when copying/creating a local file It looks like the disk tries to get more than it can handle, then it chokes with data and stales for a few seconds until some buffer empties and it's able to get a bit more data again. It happens in two identical servers, so I'd discard faulty hardware as the cause and look into a miscofiguration issue. Are there any guidelines/docs for heavy I/O tuning? are there any issues with this raid controller? any help will be apreciated Fer

/etc/ldap.conf pam_filter
by Nobody ist perfect 11 Feb '10

11 Feb '10

Hi, we use an openldap server / samba as domain controller for our windows/linux workstations. on a specific server, login should only be allowed, if the certain user is member of a group (let's call this group "login"). All the users in the domain are members of the group "Domain Users". Therefore their primary gid is not the login-group's gid. How can I make the login depending on that login-group-membership? Thanks! Toby

Experiencing continual eth0 link up/down on a 10G Chelsio NIC (cxgb3 driver)
by Arun Khan 11 Feb '10

11 Feb '10

File Server OS: CentOS 5.3 (x86_64) Kernel: CentOS Plus kernel (need XFS fs drivers) The file server has a Chelsio T310 10GBASE-CX4 RNIC (rev 3) PCI Express x8 MSI-X (eth0), driver and firmware is stock from the CentOS Plus kernel. Using ethtool I have verified driver association with the 3 NICs on the system (eth1 and eth2 are not connected to any switch) Driver for eth0 driver: cxgb3 version: 1.1.3-ko firmware-version: T 7.4.0 TP 1.1.0 Driver for eth1 driver: e1000e version: 1.0.2-k2 firmware-version: 1.0-0 Driver for eth2 driver: e1000e version: 1.0.2-k2 firmware-version: 1.0-0 The last 3-4 weeks, I have noticed that the eth0 link keeps going up and down, confirmed by "dmesg" output as well in /var/log/messages (dmesg sample shown below). eth0: link down eth0: link up, 10Gbps, full-duplex eth0: link down eth0: link up, 10Gbps, full-duplex eth0: link down eth0: link up, 10Gbps, full-duplex The kernel RPM verification shows no errors # uname --kernel-release 2.6.18-164.2.1.el5.plus # rpm --verify kernel-2.6.18-164.2.1.el5.plus The hardware vendor tells me that the card either fails completely (kaput) or works - there is no grey area. He is of the opinion that the problem is with the driver. Verification of the kernel rpm tells me that all files including the cxgb3 driver file md5sum are OK. I would like to hear from anyone with the same NIC or another rev. using the same driver. Are you seeing similar link up/down in your system? How did you solve the problem? TIA -- Arun Khan

how to work with Code Repositories, but for web development?
by Rudi Ahlers 11 Feb '10

11 Feb '10

Hi all, I would like some suggestion on this matter please. I have never bothered using any code repositories / version control systems for our web development project, many cause I didn't know any better, and probably cause most of our projects don't really require that we need to keep a history of what has changed. i.e. a client wants to change something on their website, and we change it, whether it's cosmetics or code (normally PHP & MySQL). But, I want to see if CVS, or maybe even a forge script (like in offerforge) could benefit met. Most of the time when we make changes to the code, we simply update the version, from say 1.2.2 to 1.2.3 and write the changes to a basic changelog, which in our case is a simple text file calles changelog.txt But, how could I benefit from a CVS, ir similar system? And what would be best for this environment? I installed CVS on my CentOS server, but it seems that it's not just a matter of creating a tree and dumping code. I'm not too worried about multiple users at this stage. All our coding is currently stored on a CentOS 5.4 Samba server, so we can access to the code from either a Windows or Linux PC. Do I need anything more? I started using eclipse+PHP a few months ago and I don't really use it to its full potential, so I'm sure I could benefit from it more. So, the question is, what is a good recommended setup to go with? Web based access to all the files would be nice, then we could access it from outside the LAN on HTTPS. And how do I use it to my benefit? For example, clientA wants to make changes to Project1. Now I have a Project1 in the CVS tree (is this the right terminology?), and make changes to file contacts.php - what now? Do I need to create a subfolder called 1.2.2 (for example), and add only the updated file in this folder, or do I copy the whole Project into the new folder? 2 weeks down the line I need to make changes to 8 files, what do I do now? Does this make sense? I realize it could be beneficial to keep older files, but how does one structure it? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers SoftDux Website: http://www.SoftDux.com Technical Blog: http://Blog.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532

saslauthd attack
by John Hinton 11 Feb '10

11 Feb '10

I'm seeing a lot of activity over the last two days with what looks to be a kiddie script. Mostly trying to access several of our servers with the username anna. All failed... in fact I don't think we have a user anna on any of our servers. Meanwhile... I'm running Sendmail. This pertains to Centos 4 and 5 servers. I'm also running fail2ban on some and Ossec on others. So far, no blocking is being done. When I look at the logs all I find is under messages and here is a sample: Feb 10 05:23:08 neptune saslauthd[3370]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=anna] [service=smtp] [realm=] [mech=shadow] [reason=Unknown] Feb 10 05:23:25 neptune saslauthd[3369]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=anna] [service=smtp] [realm=] [mech=shadow] [reason=Unknown] Feb 10 05:23:58 neptune saslauthd[3370]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=anna] [service=smtp] [realm=] [mech=shadow] [reason=Unknown] Feb 10 06:56:53 neptune saslauthd[3370]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=anna] [service=smtp] [realm=] [mech=shadow] [reason=Unknown] Feb 10 06:56:54 neptune saslauthd[3368]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=anna] [service=smtp] [realm=] [mech=shadow] [reason=Unknown] Feb 10 06:56:55 neptune saslauthd[3370]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=anna] [service=smtp] [realm=] [mech=shadow] [reason=Unknown] Feb 10 06:56:59 neptune saslauthd[3368]: do_auth : auth failure: [user=anna] [service=smtp] [realm=] [mech=shadow] [reason=Unknown] So, I can't write a rule to block this attack as I can't find any IP address to block. I've looked and googled til my eyes are red and can't find where to set logging in saslauthd or where ever it needs to be set to record the IP address generating these failures. Does anyone have an idea? Also, some may wish to do a grep 'do_auth' on messages to see if this is happening to you. They sometimes come in rapid succession. John Hinton

Syslog for chroot-jailed SFTP users?
by Sean Carolan 11 Feb '10

11 Feb '10

Maybe one of you can help. We have set up a CentOS server so that each user who logs in via sftp will be jailed in their home directory. Here's the relevant sshd_config: # override default of no subsystems Subsystem sftp internal-sftp -f LOCAL2 -l INFO Match Group sftponly ChrootDirectory /home/%u ForceCommand internal-sftp This actually works great, but none of the activities of sftponly group members is getting logged. The man page for sftp-server says: "For logging to work, sftp-server must be able to access /dev/log. Use of sftp-server in a chroot configuation therefore requires that syslogd(8) establish a logging socket inside the chroot directory." How do I establish a logging socket inside the chroot directory, when the chroot directory is different depending on which user is logging in at any given time? I don't want to run separate sockets in every customer's chroot directory, this is not practical. Any ideas?

sendmail mail relay backscatter issue.
by Simon Billis 10 Feb '10

10 Feb '10

Hi Folks, I have a couple of questions which I hope that you will be able to assist with, first some background. I run a few sendmail servers that run MailScanner/Spamassassin/sendmail (current versions) on Centos 5.4 and Centos 4.8 These boxes accept mail for a large number of domains (6000+) scan the mail removing spam and then forward the ham to another server for delivery. I am attempting to stop any backscatter that these servers cause by only accepting mail for specific users@domain or for domains with a catch-all account. I currently use /etc/mail/access.db as the access map for the domains, but this allows all mail to be accepted for the domain before the attempting to send it on for final delivery which causes NDR and backscatter for those domains which do not have a catch-all account. I have looked at adding "To:user@domain RELAY" to the access map and also adding "define(`_RELAY_FULL_ADDR_', `1') " in the sendmail.mc and running make -C /etc/mail but this has no effect on the sendmail.cf file. My understanding is that if I can get sendmail to accept this undocumented feature then all will be fine as I will be able to use the access map to allow mail to those specific users as well as entries of the type "domain RELAY". My first question is: Does anyone have any ideas as to why I wouldn't be able to have this change reflected in sendmail.cf? My second question is: Does anyone have any ideas on how to utilise access map and relay-domains to achieve the same thing? Thanks for your time and assistance. Simon.

Lightscribe
by Robert 10 Feb '10

10 Feb '10

I just bought an HP DVD Writer 1040r (as identified by k3b), an external USB-connected CD/DVD burner. The drive gets assigned /dev/scd0. I can burn CDs and DVDs, read from CDs and DVDs, boot from DVDs (and, I assume, CDs) but have been unable to use the lightscribe software to label a disk. I have lightscribe-1.18.11.1-0 and lightscribeApplications-1.18.6.1-0 installed, can run the GUI at /opt/lightscribe/Applications/SimpleLabeler/SimpleLabeler which promptly and stubbornly tells me "--<no lightscribe drives found>--". This IS a lightscribe drive, according to the specs, the box and the logo on the tray. This is on a fully update CentOS 5.4 system that has behaved very well since I built this box (Gigabyte MA770T-UD3P) about 3-4 months ago. This is certainly no a critical situation but having new stuff that doesn't work is rather irksome to me. Can anyone offer a clue or two? Thanks!

xentop batch mode
by Nux 09 Feb '10

09 Feb '10

Hi guys, First of all, sorry to send this one here on the centos ml. I know it's kind of off-topic, but the xen-users list seems a dead end, I was hoping some of you guys are experienced in this. I have a problem with a xen 3.4.2 on Centos 5 x86_64 installation, I need to see the total/used/available memory of dom0 when using xentop, however in batch mode it doesn't seem to work. If I use the normal mode of xentop I get all that info nicely, however in batch mode it looks like this: http://bayimg.com/mAkNEAace A friend of mine told me that the memory info I need gets displayed on Centos 5 stock xen versions when running xentop in batch mode. Anyone can tell me what is going on? What am I missing? Is there any other way I can obtain that info? The xen is installed from gitco.de/repo/, should it matter. The kernel is 2.6.18-164. Thanks. -- Nux! www.nux.ro

Using (was: Announcing) Gluster Storage Platform
by Alan McKay 09 Feb '10

OK, you have my attention. But reading around on the website for 5 or 10 minutes and I'm still not sure what this is. What is it? Why would I use it? What would I use instead of it? (Who are its competitors) When would I not use it? I see this "The software is a powerful and flexible solution that simplifies the task of managing unstructured file data", but I have no idea what "unstructured file data" means. -- “Don't eat anything you've ever seen advertised on TV” - Michael Pollan, author of "In Defense of Food"

Hi everyone . Recently I had a strange error on one of my servers ,running Centos 5.4 64bit FAILED kernel: status = 1, message = 00, host = 0, driver = 08 kernel: <6>sd: Current: sense key: Illegal Request kernel: Add. Sense: Logical block address out of range *Should i be worried sick about it or is it normal??* *There are 2 sas hdd connected into raid 1 to Adaptec AIC-9410W SAS controller. I can't get any information about my drives health (no S.M.A.R.T there) and to get information about raid quality i must restart system and enter raid bios- which is not very good option And maybe someone knows how to get health information om my raid\hdd from Centos ? P.S. error happened about 20 times for the last 2 days and I am worried Best wishes, Alexey Galishnikov * __________ Information from ESET Smart Security, version of virus signature database 4850 (20100209) __________ The message was checked by ESET Smart Security. http://www.esetnod32.ru
