Source keychain credentials in Perl?
by Sean Carolan 05 Mar '08

05 Mar '08

Keychain is quite a useful tool for automating SSH logins without having to use password-less keys: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/keychain/ Normally it is used like this to set the SSH_AUTH_SOC and SSH_AGENT_PID variables: source ~/.keychain/hostname-sh (This is what's in hostname-sh) SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/ssh-XXn47DUn/agent.16721; export SSH_AUTH_SOCK; SSH_AGENT_PID=16722; export SSH_AGENT_PID; I would like these environment variables to be made available to a Perl script so that any "system" commands contained in the perl script will inherit them. How do you do this in Perl?

RESTORING THUNDERBIRD FILES
by Chris Geldenhuis 05 Mar '08

05 Mar '08

Hi All, Last night I downloaded the latest security updates to my Centos 4 system, and rebooted afterwards. This morning I wanted to check my mail, but when I opened Thunderbird, it asked me to set up a mail account. I saved the contents of the previous .thunderbird file structure with tar and created a new mail account with the same details (name, isp, pasword, servers etc.) as the previous account. All of my folders and history had disappeared when the "new" account was created. I tried restoring from the tar archive but can still only access mails downloaded after recreating the account. Any ideas on how to regain access to my mail archives? TIA ChrisG

hi all, assume apache runs under apache user/group and i have a user/group name "weber". i use "weber" user to upload files via ftp/sftp. where should i place my include files so that no one can access except apache b/c these files contained user/pw for mysql. i usually place them in /var/www/html/includes, but people can access to this folder, so i'm thinking place them in /var/www/includes. what should the permission for /var/www/html and /var/www/inclues/? what group should these two directories belong to??? thanks, t. hiep

environment variables in kickstart
by Jerry Geis 05 Mar '08

05 Mar '08

I have been looking for environment variables for the %post section of kickstart. Namely if I start my kickstart command with "linux ks=http://serverip/ks.cfg" is there an environment variable that has serverip that I can use in the %post section? Also is there a way to pass a command line argument to the %post section when running kickstart command as the above http://serverip/ks.cfg Thanks, Jerry

Error reading block x (Attempt to read block...)
by Scott R. Ehrlich 05 Mar '08

05 Mar '08

A Centos 5 64-bit server reflected some SCSI kernel errors in the logs, so I opted to reboot, only to be prompted to perform a manual fsck, that an automatic fsck wouldn't be permitted. As a result, the fsck is taking a long time, as I have to babysit the server for every bad block that is reported and needs a forced rewrite. The exact error is "Error reading block x (Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read) while doing inode scan. Ignore error(y)? Force rewrite(y)?" I say yes to both. Could I safely get away with booting from a CentOS 5 CD and performing a fsck with automatic system fixing to speed up the process, or do I need to be patient and just keep manually selecting Y for as long as it takes? Thanks. Scott

LVM: how do I change the UUID of a LV?
by Timothy Selivanow 05 Mar '08

05 Mar '08

I know how to change the UUID of Physical Volumes and Volume Groups, but when I try to do the same for a Logical Volume, lvchange complains that "--uuid" is not an option. Here is how I've been changing the others (note that "--uuid" does not appear in the man pages for pvchange and vgchange for lvm2-2.02.26-3.el5): pvchange --uuid {pv dev} vgchange --uuid {vg name} Any suggestions? I'm pretty much open to any arcane/convoluted procedure, but I refrain from copying the data to a temp place so I can re-create the LV as that would add too much work and would kinda defeat what I'm doing. Thanks! --Tim _________________________________________________________ / Obviously I was either onto something, or on something. \ \ -- Larry Wall on the creation of Perl / --------------------------------------------------------- \ \ \ \ /\ ( ) .( o ).

Overwrite target of ln
by Matt Arnilo S. Baluyos (Mailing Lists) 05 Mar '08

05 Mar '08

Hi all, Sorry if this seems too basic. But is there a way to overwrite the target of a symbolic link without first deleting the symlink itself? For example, if I have this: public_html -> releases/b2b-20080228 ... and there's a new update, I can then just do the following: $ ln releases/site-latest public_html I tried using the -f option but it doesn't seem to work as expected. -- Stand before it and there is no beginning. Follow it and there is no end. Stay with the ancient Tao, Move with the present.

Rejecting spam
by Tim Alberts 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

Sorry, not a direct CentOS question, but I know there's a lot of experienced users on this list...I'm using CentOS with sendmail and spamassassin. I've got it configured with spamass-milter and it is working correctly. However, I was expecting to be able to reject mail that is marked as spam, not just deliver it as usual. Anyone know if it can be done and how? I know a milter can reject mail, because I've used milter-grelist in the past to give temporary fail messages. Following is my sendmail.m4 directive for spamass-milter: INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`spamassassin', `S=unix:/var/run/spamass-milter/spamass-milter.sock, F=, T=C:15m;S:4m;R:4m;E:10m')dnl define(`confMILTER_MACROS_CONNECT',`t, b, j, _, {daemon_name}, {if_name}, {if_addr}')dnl define(`confMILTER_MACROS_HELO',`s, {tls_version}, {cipher}, {cipher_bits}, {cert_subject}, {cert_issuer}')dnl

procmailrc
by John Hinton 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

I have one box, a 3.x box, that has a problem finding procmailrc files. For instance, if I have a .procmailrc file in /var/www/user/homes/username it finds it and it works. If I have a .procmailrc file under /var/www/user it doesn't. Where the heck is the setting for where procmail looks for user procmailrc files? Thanks, John Hinton

dovecot & bandwidth limit

Everyone, I am having some bandwidth problems caused by large e-mail files with dovecot. From my research into dovecot it appears that there is no way to limit the use of bandwidth during POP3 deliveries. What recommendations might some of you have for a different POP3 server that can limit its own bandwidth use. Thanks, Greg Ennis

LVM and kickstarts ?
by Michael Gale 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

Hey, Can anyone tell me why option 1 works and option 2 fails ? I know I need swap and such, however in trouble shooting this issue I trimmed down my config. It fails on trying to format my logical volume, because the mount point does not exist (/dev/volgroup/logvol) It seems that with option 2, the partitions are created and LVM is setup correctly. However the volgroup / logvolume was not made active, so my /dev/volgroup/logvol did not exist. Running `lvm lvchange -a -y pathname` from with in the shell after anaconda failed made the volgroup / logvol active. Which would allow the format command to complete. Option 1: zerombr yes clearpart --all --initlabel part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=100 part pv.os --size=10000 --grow --maxsize=10000 --asprimary volgroup os_volgroup01 pv.os logvol swap --fstype swap --name=os_swap_logvol --vgname=os_volgroup01 --recommended logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=os_root --vgname=os_volgroup01 --size=1024 --grow Option 2: zerombr yes clearpart --all --initlabel part /boot --fstype ext3 --size=100 part pv.os --size=10000 --grow --maxsize=10000 --asprimary volgroup os_volgroup01 pv.os logvol / --fstype ext3 --name=os_root --vgname=os_volgroup01 --size=1024 --grow -- Michael Gale Red Hat Certified Engineer Network Administrator Pason Systems Corp.

crypto, readline and zlib libraries - Postgres install
by Karl Denninger 04 Mar '08

I have the 5.x Centos DVD and loaded it. Please be gentle with me, as I'm nominally a FreeBSD kind of guy... :) Anyway, I'm trying to install Postgres and the three libraries in the subject line are missing off the base installation. I figured out how to load gcc using yum, but those libraries aren't there, and I need the former in particular in order to enable SSL for Postgres client connections. A perusal of "yum list" with an appropriate grep or two doesn't elicit anything useful. Anyone know where I find these? I loaded just the standard distro, no graphical user environment (neither Gnome or KDB) Thanks in advance. -- Karl Denninger (karl(a)denninger.net) http://www.denninger.net

install LAMP
by Hiep Nguyen 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

hi all, i'm not an expert on linux/centos, but i play with it and have a general idea. it's time for me to setup a centos box for development. i rarely install anything from source, except a few times in college when i have to modify kernel for OS project. but i guess i can learn now. i just installed centos 5 with minimal installation. next step is to install LAMP w/ SSL. i found http://lamphowto.com/lampssl.html, but i have questions before i proceed. is it better to install from source or rpm? how easy it is to upgrade/update if install from source? it seems so much easy to upgrade/update from rpm, well b/c i'm always do this way. is there any other instruction (beside the one mentioned above) to install LAMP w/ SSL? appreciate your help/suggestion t. hiep

Device-mapper-multipath not working correctly with GNBD devices
by Svetoslav Rogalski 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

Hi all, I am trying to configure a failover multipath between 2 GNBD devices. I have a 4 nodes Redhat Cluster Suite (RCS) cluster. 3 of them are used for running services, 1 of them for central storage. In the future I am going to introduce another machine for central storage. The 2 storage machine are going to share/export the same disk. The idea is not to have a single point of failure on the machine exporting the storage. For concept testing I am using one machine on which I have configured 2 GNBD exports, which are exporting exactly the same disk. These are configured with: # /sbin/gnbd_export -d /dev/sdb1 -e gnbd0 -u gnbd # /sbin/gnbd_export -d /dev/sdb1 -e gnbd1 -u gnbd They are exporting with the same id, so the multipath driver will automatically configure them as alternative paths to the same storage. Now on one of the cluster nodes used for running services I am importing these GNBD devices with: # /sbin/gnbd_import -i gnbd1 where gnbd1 is the hostname of the machine exporting the GNBD devices. And I have these imported ok: # gnbd_import -l Device name : gnbd1 ---------------------- Minor # : 0 sysfs name : /block/gnbd0 Server : gnbd11 Port : 14567 State : Open Connected Clear Readonly : No Sectors : 41941688 Device name : gnbd0 ---------------------- Minor # : 1 sysfs name : /block/gnbd1 Server : gnbd1 Port : 14567 State : Open Connected Clear Readonly : No Sectors : 41941688 # After, I have configured the device-mapper multipath by commenting the "blacklist" section in /etc/multipath.conf and adding this "defaults" section: defaults { user_friendly_names yes polling_interval 5 #path_grouping_policy failover path_grouping_policy multibus rr_min_io 1 failback immediate #failback manual no_path_retry fail #no_path_retry queue } Now I have the mpath device configured correctly (IMHO): # multipath -ll mpath0 (gnbd) dm-2 GNBD,GNBD [size=20G][features=0][hwhandler=0] \_ round-robin 0 [prio=2][enabled] \_ #:#:#:# gnbd0 252:0 [active][ready] \_ #:#:#:# gnbd1 252:1 [active][ready] # # dmsetup ls mpath0 (253, 2) VolGroup00-LogVol01 (253, 1) VolGroup00-LogVol00 (253, 0) # Now I mkfs.ext3 over the mpath0 device to create a filesystem, then mount. After I start to copy a file (with scp - to have a progress bar) and during the copy process I shutdown one of the exported GNBD device on the disk exporting machine with: # gnbd_export -r gnbd1 -O After a while in the maillog: gnbd_recvd[3357]: client lost connection with gnbd11 : Broken pipe gnbd_recvd[3357]: reconnecting kernel: gnbd1: Receive control failed (result -32) kernel: gnbd1: shutting down socket kernel: exiting GNBD_DO_IT ioctl kernel: gnbd1: Attempted send on closed socket gnbd_recvd[3357]: ERROR [gnbd_recvd.c:292] login refused by the server : No such device gnbd_recvd[3357]: reconnecting kernel: device-mapper: multipath: Failing path 252:1. multipathd: gnbd1: directio checker reports path is down multipathd: checker failed path 252:1 in map mpath0 multipathd: mpath0: remaining active paths: 1 gnbd_recvd[3357]: ERROR [gnbd_recvd.c:292] login refused by the server : No such device gnbd_recvd[3357]: reconnecting Now the copy process is freezed. It stays that way until the GNBD device is exported again. I try some commands on the multipath machine: # multipath -ll gnbd1: checker msg is "directio checker reports path is down" mpath0 (gnbd) dm-2 GNBD,GNBD [size=20G][features=0][hwhandler=0] \_ round-robin 0 [prio=1][active] \_ #:#:#:# gnbd0 252:0 [active][ready] \_ #:#:#:# gnbd1 252:1 [failed][faulty] <freezed, the prompt is not returning back> This prompt get back after the GNBD device is exported again. My expectations were that in such a scenario the multipath driver is going to switch the requests to the other path and everything should continue to work. Am I wrong? I have upgraded to the last version of all the RPMs. I am using CentOS 5.1. I have tried different multipath settings (which are commented out in the multipath.conf "defaults" section I pasted previously), but nothing happens. This may be useful. When starting the machine in the log: multipathd: gnbd0: add path (uevent) kernel: device-mapper: multipath round-robin: version 1.0.0 loaded multipathd: mpath0: load table [0 41941688 multipath 0 0 1 1 round-robin 0 1 1 252:0 1000] multipathd: mpath0: event checker started multipathd: dm-2: add map (uevent) multipathd: dm-2: devmap already registered gnbd_recvd[3357]: gnbd_recvd started kernel: resending requests multipathd: gnbd1: add path (uevent) multipathd: mpath0: load table [0 41941688 multipath 0 0 1 1 round-robin 0 2 1 252:0 1000 252:1 1000] multipathd: dm-2: add map (uevent) multipathd: dm-2: devmap already registered Maybe this is a bug of GNBD not the multipath? Any help for getting this working will be very appreciated. Thanks.

phpmyadmin hang..
by Frank M. Ramaekers 04 Mar '08

04 Mar '08

It seems that I can never get through a phpmyadmin session w/o it hanging on "Waiting for http://....". The only way I have found to correct this is to cycle Apache. I can always get past the signon portion, but it hangs at various portions of selecting DBs or Tables. CPU is not overly active, all httpd daemons running, no myphpadmin remnants running. Can't find any problems in the httpd log files. I've searched the web, but no applicable hits. Anyone been there? Frank M.

twiki 4.2 on centos
by Les Mikesell 03 Mar '08

03 Mar '08

Is anyone running twiki on centos? The basic part of the 4.2 version appears to work, but there is a plugin installer that you run from the bin/Configure URL that is supposed to automate downloading and installing an assortment of optional add-on and plugin code, and this is giving me an error of "Subroutine install redefined at /var/www/html/twiki/WebDAVPlugin_installer.pl" (same thing for any xxx_installer.pl). I didn't see this on the 4.1.2 version of twiki. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

Making CentOS 5.1 Live on USB Writable
by Mark Rose 03 Mar '08

03 Mar '08

I recently made a Live USB by using the directions in the LiveCD Trac. It works very well, but I was wondering if there is a way the partition - in my case, /dev/sda1, can be made writable. I tried changing the kickstart file to mount everything RW, but it did not work. I know I can always create a second partition on the pendrive, but I would like all filesystems accessible by both CentOS and Windows. Any and all suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks! Mark

HD Failures
by Jimmy Bradley 03 Mar '08

03 Mar '08

I'm just curious if any one else has noticed this. I've bought hard drives from both Walmart and Best Buy. If I can wait, I order them from newegg.com. I'm beginning to think that the staff at both Walmart and Best Buy, somewhere along the supply line must dribble the drives like basket balls. The reason I say that is all the drives I have bought from those two places fail within a few months time. Has anyone else noticed that? Just curious. Jim

I just had someone over here at the CentOS booth who wanted to know if there's a possibility to integrate the AVM CAPI into CentOS and then use the machine as a fax gateway with 2, 3 or 4 S0 buses.

Odd AVC from tcpdump
by Robert Nichols 02 Mar '08

02 Mar '08

Whenever tcpdump fills a savefile to capacity (-C option) and tries to open a new one, I get the following AVC denial: kernel: audit(1204485464.409:106): avc: denied { search } for pid=2702 comm="tcpdump" name="/" dev=hdb1 ino=2 scontext=system_u:system_r:netutils_t:s0 t context=system_u:object_r:default_t:s0 tclass=dir Any suggestions as the the proper fix to make this work? The target directory for the savefiles has context system_u:object_r:netutils_tmp_t, and I get no complaints about that directory or its files. I have no idea what tcpdump might be searching for in the root directory or, for that matter, why search permission in a default_t directory should be denied.

Nah, RHEL 5.1+ supports 32-bit domU (PAE and non PAE) on 64-bit dom0.

question on how yum updates cache
by Rogelio 01 Mar '08

01 Mar '08

I'm trying to make sense of CentOS's package management based on what (little) I know about Debian's. When I do a "yum install program" and it takes forever, is it updating local cache to install the most up-to-date version of that program? When I do it in Debian, it seems to install whatever version is in the "apt-cache" (unless I "apt-get update").
