question on "cp -f" on centos 5.1
by Jerry Geis 29 Jan '08

29 Jan '08

When I issue the command cp -af --reply=yes * ../other it tells me --reply is deprecated and use -i or -f. when I remove the --reply=yes I have to indicate 'y' to every file being copied. I just want to copy every file in my current directory to another directory and overwrite any file that is there. What is the correct way to do that? Jerry

boot slow at "Applying ip6tables firewall rules"
by Dan Halbert 28 Jan '08

28 Jan '08

I have a fairly vanilla install of Centos5 on a desktop box (with a Broadcom NetXtreme BCM5752 Gigabit NIC). When booting, the boot process hangs at "Applying ip6tables firewall rules" for 30-60 seconds before proceeding, which is annoying. I have not tried to turn off ipv6 networking. I guess I could, but is this slowness to be expected? Is it waiting for some ipv6 response? Thanks, Dan

EDAC error
by Dianne Yumul 28 Jan '08

28 Jan '08

Hello, I upgraded to CentOS 5.1 and everything went smoothly (Thanks for the awesome work!). But after rebooting, I get the following error: EDAC MC: Ver: 2.0.1 Nov 30 2007 EDAC e7xxx: error reporting device not found:vendor 8086 device 0x2541 (broken BIOS?) I found http://edacbugs.buttersideup.com/show_bug.cgi?id=21 with google but no solution. Is it safe to ignore the error or remove the EDAC module? I read their wiki but I'm new to this and I don't want to break anything? Please advice on what to do next? Thank you so much. dianne

WPA question
by fred smith 27 Jan '08

27 Jan '08

HI I admit up front that I know just enough about wireless networking to know that I don't know much at all about it. That said, I'm hoping someone can help me learn a little bit... Specifically, could a laptop running Centos 5.1 be expected to (be able to) connect to a wireless access point using WPA2 security settings? I don't know if WPA depends on hardware support, or if it'll work on any ole machine. Nor do I know what is involved in making it happen. Clues would be appreciated.

Two Instances of Apache; Primary IP / Secondary IP
by Al Sparks 26 Jan '08

26 Jan '08

Tried the apache group, and no response. Thought I'd try here. I have set up a development environment so that it mimics a production environment. The production environment has a proxy server (apache 2.x) that sends requests onto another back-end apache server, and of course the proxy server serves up pages sent by the back-end. All that works fine. However, in my development environment, I thought that I'd set up a separate instance of apache on the same server, and add a secondary IP address on the same interface. The proxy apache instance listens on the secondary IP, and the back-end instance listens on the primary IP. When I send a client request to the proxy, I get a blank page. When I check the logs, the back-end shows requests coming from the primary IP, and not the secondary IP. My conclusion is that the proxy is sending its outbound traffic on the primary IP address, not the secondary IP address it's listening on. That in turn means that back-end is sending its pages back on the primary IP instead of the secondary, and that means the proxy instance isn't receiving answers to its request. I know that BIND can be configured to send requests on secondary IP addresses. Can Apache? Is there something I can do with routing tables that can help? === Al

Problem installing the 53.1.6 kernel
by MHR 26 Jan '08

26 Jan '08

On top of my previously (just now) difficulties with yum, now I find that the 53.1.6 kernel is not installing properly. When I run "yum update" to install it, the install hangs here: Dependencies Resolved ============================================================================= Package Arch Version Repository Size ============================================================================= Installing: kernel x86_64 2.6.18-53.1.6.el5 updates 15 M Transaction Summary ============================================================================= Install 1 Package(s) Update 0 Package(s) Remove 0 Package(s) Total download size: 15 M Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: (1/1): kernel-2.6.18-53.1 100% |=========================| 15 MB 03:26 Running Transaction Test Finished Transaction Test Transaction Test Succeeded Running Transaction Installing: kernel ######################### [1/1] If I kill this with ^C, it thinks it has installed the kernel, but the kernel is not in my grub.conf. Rpm also thinks it is installed. I can remove it with rpm -e, but then rpm -ivh won't install it either. It also hangs, at the same point. Here's what I see when I type ^C: error: %post(kernel-2.6.18-53.1.6.el5.x86_64) scriptlet failed, signal 2 (Yes, I know, signal 2 is SIGINT, which is what ^C does.) BUT rpm thinks it has installed the kernel even though the /boot partition has not been updated and the grub.conf file also does not show it. Any constructive assistance would be appreciated. mhr

Unable to log out normally
by MHR 26 Jan '08

26 Jan '08

I've posted this question to the Gnome users list, but so far no luck, so I thought I'd mention this here. A little while ago, I noticed that I was no longer able to log out from my GDM. I'm running the default GDM (2.16) that comes with CentOS, and this problem started up right about the same time that I updated to the 53.1.4 kernel (from the 8.1.15 version). As I've posted here recent;y, I was unable to use yum to install the 53.1.6 kernel until I rebooted to the 53.1.4 default kernel (I run a modified kernel that has NTFS support built in as a module with read/write support.) However, I was not only unable to log out using the System->LogOut applet, I was also unable to shut down or reboot using the System->Shutdown applet. This has also occurred since rebooting to the 53.1.6 stock kernel and my own 53.1.6 kernel with NTFS. What happens is that I either click on the Log Out or Shutdown applet, and if I click on the relevant button (Log Out, Shutdown or Reboot), the applet freezes. I can't cancel it or change options (in the case of the shutdown applet), but if I click on the close window button (upper right hand corner), after a moment or two, the "not responding" window pops up and I can kill the applet. (Thsi also happens if I just let the applet time out - it freezes then, too.) The only way I have been able to log out is to kill my gnome-session. To reboot, I can run "reboot" in a terminal window, or log out (by killing the gnome session) and then click on the "Reboot" link at the bottom of the login screen. I confess that I have downloaded and installed a few third-party packages, but I got most of them via rpmforge, CentOS (Fedora) Extras and SourceForge. The only thing that I find really suspicious in all of these is that I tried to install k9copy and it refused to install due to too many missing parts, but I did manage to install a number of KDE pieces - could they be interfering? Also, IIRC, the problem began before that, so I'm in a quandary here. Part of the problem is that I rarely log out, so I'm not 100% sure of exactly when this started or what I last installed that might have triggered it. (BTW, how do I view that?) Suggestions? Wisdom? Not too abrasive, please.... :-) Thanks. mhr

Timing a command
by Scott Ehrlich 26 Jan '08

26 Jan '08

I want to keep track of how long a task is running. Thinking it wouldn't take that long, I opted not to run time before it. The fact that it is taking a long time, if I revisit the machine in the morning, what would be the best way to find out what time it ended? In this case, I'm using mt to erase an lto3 tape - sudo mt -f /dev/st0 erase. But I'd like to use the knowledge from this question to track other events, too. I feel like I should know this answer, but cannot think of the solution at the moment. Thanks. Scott

install isues
by William Warren 25 Jan '08

I have a new dell t105(opty 1210's with 4 gigs of ram..sata hdd's and sata dvd-rom). I can bot to the Cent 5 64 bit dvd fine but once it asks where the install image is i tell it cd-rom..then it rejects the dvd spits it out and tells me it's not there. the same happens on 32 bit. I have downloaded centos5 twice now, md5 verified..and even burned at 1x(that took forever). Any ideas as to why it refuses to see a disk that's there, properly burned, and verified? -- Registered Microsoft Partner My "Foundation" verse: Isa 54:17

Are you trying to install the 64-bit or the 32-bit? While the install is running, some of the other virtual consoles display logs and error information.

My apologies if this is a bit off topic... I am going to start doing backups to removable hard drives and I will need to send these hard drives to an off-site storage facility. I am looking for some way to protect the drives after I pull them out of the system. I was hoping to find some kind of clamshell enclosure similar to what is used with external hard drives, but so far I haven't found anything. Do you guys know of anything like this? How do you protect your removable drives when they are not in the computer? -- Bowie

Could not connect to host box.domain.tld
by Anne Wilson 25 Jan '08

25 Jan '08

I have used fetchmail/procmail/postfix/dovecot/kmail for some time on my mail server, and have set this up on three or four machines in the past. I'm now setting up a new server and having problems. I've reached the thinking-in-circles stage, so need a prompt. The box in question is called borg2.lydgate.lan, and resides at 192.168.0.40. I can ping both borg2.lydgate.lan and 192.168.0.40, yet kmail tells me that it cannot connect to it, either by name or ip. /etc/hosts has correct lines for the box. It has to be something pretty basic, but I can't think what, unless it is either an selinux problem or ipv6 problem. I know that in FC6 I turned ipv6 off (I'd have to search to find how to do that again). Anne

Problems with yum not updating properly
by MHR 25 Jan '08

25 Jan '08

Has anyone else seen this? I recently got the announcement about the xorg 1.5 update being available, so I ran yum update to get it. To my surprise, I found that yum did not see it at all. With some help from Karanbir (thanks again), we decided there might be something wrong with my repo path, so I checked it against the older one I had from 5.0 (which I saved, for some reason) and found that the new ones did not have protect or enable commands in them, so I added them to match my 5.0 ones. Yum suddenyl found the xorg 1.5 updates and installed them. But now, yum can't see the wireshark update, and although I probably don't need it since I don't use that (AFAIK), yum does not see that one, but suddenly it sees a kernel update (2.6.18-53.1.6). Anyone have a clue why this might be (or what I should post here to help clera it up)? Here is my CentOS-Base.repo: # CentOS-Base.repo # # This file uses a new mirrorlist system developed by Lance Davis for CentOS. # The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the # update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and # geographically close to the client.

Intel (brand) Penryn (8xxx) motherboard which works natively with CentOS 4/5?

Has anyone stumbled across an Intel brand motherboard which both works with the 8000 series of CPUs and with CentOS 4/5 out of the box? (by works I mean the NIC/Disk controllers without "fudgery") The DG31 board "kind of" works but unfortunately it has 2 DIMM slots, the realtek NIC isn't supported (don't know why, its just a standard realtek NIC, although it might be some new PCI-E one). Has anyone found the "Holy Grail" yet? Please let me know :) -Drew

Breaking Windows XP user password?
by Scott Ehrlich 25 Jan '08

25 Jan '08

Granted this is not a UNIX system, but in case there is a UNIX tool to accomplish the goal... I am looking for a bootable CD/DVD (or application to be placed on a CD/DVD to be made bootable) that can let me mount a Windows XP drive/partition (SP1 or SP2), and force-crack the admin password (even if admin account name has been changed, but I know what it has been changed to). The application cannot write to the hard drive - only mount it read-only, read the password file into ram, and show the cracked password. I know I can use the pnordahl utility to try and force-change the password, but I actually want to crack it. The utility should be free. This is a legal request. Thanks for leads. Scott

Re: [CentOS] Random files in homedir gets deleted

You can enable auditing to determine if the files are disappearing due to human/machine intervention (audit file system deletes) or if it is due to file system corruption (files disappear and no delete audits recorded). It may just be an errant rsync script. -Ross -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org <centos-bounces(a)centos.org> To: centos(a)centos.org <centos(a)centos.org> Sent: Thu Jan 03 07:09:11 2008 Subject: [CentOS] Random files in homedir gets deleted On one of my systems I seem to loose a file or two from time to time.

Shearing file systems on the network
by Peter Blajev 25 Jan '08

25 Jan '08

I have 4 systems and each one of them has a partition I'd like to be remotely accessible on the other 3 systems. In other words System1 has Partition1. Systems 2,3,4 should be able to remotely mount Partition1 from System1. Also System2 has Partition2. Then systems 1,3,4 should be able to remotely mount Partition2 from System2 and so on. I tried NFS and it works but only in the ideal world. If one of the systems goes down the whole NFS cross-mounting makes the other systems somewhat unstable. It's a known issue and I believe you guys are aware of it but I just had to see it myself. What would you recommend? What is the best practice for doing that? Unfortunately SAN and NAS are not really an option due to some financial restructions. I'm thinking SMB...? Would that work? Thank you Peter

Why Kudzu, Why?
by Michael Semcheski 25 Jan '08

25 Jan '08

So I have a CentOS 5 machine, which I recently did a 'yum update' on. Everything went fine, but I rebooted as a precaution (just to confront any problems which might arise the first time after an update). And sure enough, when the machine came back up, the network didn't work. Luckilly, someone said (and I quote) 'mv /etc/sysconfig/networking-scripts/ifcfg-eth0.bak /etc/sysconfig/networking-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and blame kudzu'... So, what did I do wrong, or what should I have done differently? What's the reasoning behind this? I'll bet there is some rationale, and I'd like to understand it. Thanks, Mike

Interesting PXE server setup question
by Rob Lines 24 Jan '08

24 Jan '08

While this is not a problem with CentOS I am hoping to solve the situation using a CentOS machine. For anyone not interested I am sorry to clutter your mail box. For everyone else any ideas or suggestions are welcome. A bit of background: We have an application that runs only in DOS 6.22 at the moment that we would like to run on all of our desktop computers each time they boot up. Our workstations are mostly Windows XP with some Linux. Our goals: We would like to be able to have the machines boot into DOS and run the application and then reboot to the normal hard drive. We would like to have it require no user intervention or as little as possible. We would also like to have it only run the app during the first boot up of the day. Thoughts at the moment: One idea we have at the moment is to create a PXE server with the DOS boot image on it. (I have done that before using Windows RIS but we are trying to avoid a windows Server as RIS is a bit of a pain and it prefers user interaction. It also would not fit well with our solution to have it only run once a day.) We could then run the application and inside the DOS image we could have it reboot the machine. We could then set the client machines to boot PXE as their first boot option. The next thought was to somehow watch the connections to the tftp server where the boot image will be kept and watch for the client IP then have the PXE server create a new firewall rule that would block access from that client to tftp. The thought there is that once the client has downloaded the boot image once it will run it and then on reboot will not be able to find the boot image and, I think, would fail at the pxe boot and move on to the next item in the boot list. Then every midnight the list of blocked IPs would be cleared and we start the process over again. So any suggestions on the best way to take a bootable DOS disk and turn it into an image that a Linux based PXE server can serve, ways to monitor the tftp connections and then add them to the firewall after they have finished downloading the boot image, and any ideas on any better ideas would be appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Rob

Appreciate the help...
by Scott Ehrlich 24 Jan '08

24 Jan '08

I received some interesting answers to my cron question. Most people said it was not possible. One person reviewed cron's source code and said the source would need to be modified. One person said I should mount the filesystem with noexec. I'll review and test the answers as best I can. To answer several people's curiosities of why I keep pushing - when I'm tasked with a quest, I try to tap all my resources, including this list, to find a solution. One never knows when an answer might be obvious, or perplexing, as this question seems to have been. To some, an answer is obvious. To others, it is perplexing. It all depends on each person's level of knowledge. The more one learns, the more things can become more obvious. Thus, we grow. In the end, like now, I try to provide my findings, and, if valid, may be of benefit to others. I try not to wear out the list, but do what the list was created for - discussion and inquiry of UNIX and related topics. This question proved to test people's knowledge, and I did get some good feedback. Thanks to all, and until the next adventure... Scott

To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
