Launching X-Windows at different runelvels
by carlopmart 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

Hi all, I need to launch X-Windows at runlevel 4 and 5. CentOS only start up x-windows at runlevel by default. I have modified /etc/inittab to accomplish this: x:4:respawn:/etc/X11/prefdm -nodaemon x:5:respawn:/etc/X11/prefdm -nodaemon But this returns errors every time that start and stop system ... Which is the correct form to launch x-windows under centos at different runlevels?? Many thanks. -- CL Martinez carlopmart {at} gmail {d0t} com

Local mirroring of the CentOS repos
by Kai Schaetzl 19 Nov '07

19 Nov '07

I figured I try if I can mirror the base and updates repos locally. There's no tutorial for that, only one about creating your own repo of packages which is not the same. So, I just mirrored all the stuff with wget and changed the baseurl in the repo files and hoped that's enough. Works. So easy you don't need a tutorial. *But* I then realized that the updates directory contains *all* updates, not just the latest. Which means if I don't regularly check I may get old versions mirrored I don't want. It also means that I get a lot of unwanted files at the time I start to mirror. And I cannot delete old files as these would again be mirrored in. An obvious solution would be to check each day and tell wget (or whatever software I use) to ignore files older than 24 hours. Still, this means the initial download has to get them all and I have to delete all unwanted old files manually. Is there a better solution?

I am going to wait until the long Thanksgiving weekend and if another possible solution doesn't appear, I think I will try what you suggested, before I wipe the drive. If I fdisk /mbr and am then able to restore the user32.dll file in WinXP, hopefully, after that, I could reinstall GRUB and have my dual boot box working again. If not, probably I will need to wipe the HD and install both OS's again. Lanny

Correctly displaying different charsets in Gnome-Terminal
by Niki Kovacs 18 Nov '07

18 Nov '07

Hi, I'm using CentOS 5.0 with GNOME on almost all my desktops. My system is in french, so the default charset ($LANG) is fr_FR.UTF-8. I'm in charge of our public library database server, running Debian Sarge. It's mainly running a LAMP server with a few extra PHP modules, and it's hosting our library management software. Since the app refuses to work correctly with UTF-8, I set the general system locale on the server to fr_FR@euro (ISO-8859-1). When I administrate that server remotely from, say, a desktop running Slackware (which defaults to ISO, not Unicode), characters in the console get displayed correctly. For example, 'less /root/ChangeLog.txt' will display my ChangeLog file (with french special characters) correctly. But when I open an SSH session on my CentOS machine in a GNOME Terminal, the french special characters are all replaced by inverted question marks. And the same goes for the MySQL monitor: all the french characters in the entries (é, à, ç, ù, ...) are incorrectly displayed. Q: how can I display all that correctly from within my Gnome Terminal? cheers, Niki Kovacs

How to make fdisk recognize increased iSCSI LUN?
by Mindaugas 17 Nov '07

17 Nov '07

Hello, How to explain to fdisk that /dev/sda size changed? I increased LUN on storage, reloaded iscsi, did echo 1 > /sys/<something>/rescan. And I see in "dmesg" that kernel found new size of the LUN. But when I type "fdisk /dev/sda" it still shows old size. On /dev/sda1 sits LVM PV and I'd like to resize it instead of adding one more PV to volume group. CentOS 4.4 64bits. Thanks, Mindaugas

A good primer to User Administration?
by Eric B. 17 Nov '07

17 Nov '07

Hi, I've been running Linux as a workstation OS for years, and have been dealing with Windows networks and standalone Linux servers for a while now. However, the time has come for me to complete redo the server installation and am looking to move to a complete CentOS install base, with only Windows workstations. My question is the following. I've been searching online for a good reference to describe good practices when building a linux network, but haven't really been able to find much when it comes to best practices for user administration, ACLs, "optimal" (or recommended) file locations, etc. For example, I know I need an LDAP server, but not sure how that ties into system login, or how to use a Linux LDAP server as the basis for a primary domain controller (is it still called that given Windows AD world?), etc. Or even how to properly create group structures and ACLs that accurately reflect group ownership/etc. The octal permissions at the file level are only good enough for a single group; I need to give multiple groups different permissions on the same files, etc. I realize that there are a lot of questions that I need to research, but I was hoping someone could point me in the direction of some advanced admin docs with best practices, etc. Most of the stuff I find relates on how to set up a basic standalone PC, without any reference to how to network together a bunch of servers running off central authentication, etc... Thanks for the advice! Eric

Re: Samba Upgrade on Centos 3

17 Nov '07

> After today's samba update, Centos 3 boxes can not use samba to > communicate with each other, although Windows and the Centos 3 boxes > see each other correctly as do RHEL5 and the Centos3 boxes. The du Upon further investigation, samba can only no longer use wildcards of any type or do things like 'ls' . Doing ls /mnt/SHARE/<complete file name> works fine whereas ls /mnt/SHARE/<partial>* gives an invalid result. I wonder if there is still is a compilation option (there was a few years ago) to enable/disable wildcards which is either turned off or has been disabled? If one knows the complete file name on a Centos 3 share then one has no problem. Windows boxes (and Linux boxes other than Centos 3) work fine and that is the way most admins use samba so this is hardly a crisis. ( Unlike the Ubuntu people who report that nmbd is segfaulting on their boxes and apparently have a different problem). regards, benm

So I did the following (without final success): - cp /lib/modules/2.6.18-8.el5/updates/* /lib/modules/2.6.18-8.1.15.el5/updates - depmod -a 2.6.18-8.1.15.el5 - created a new initrd-cpio file and copied megasr.ko into the lib directory The systems starts loading the kernel and its ramdisk, and then hangs: Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (0,0) I'am a bit lost, what else I can do to get this working? Best Regards --Michael

weird cron problem
by Andreas Kuntzagk 16 Nov '07

16 Nov '07

Hi, I'm having some problems with a script in /etc/cron.daily. It's quite simple: ------ #!/bin/sh touch /mnt/Backup/foo rsnapshot daily ----- So the touch gets executed, but the rsnapshot not. If I run manually > run-parts /etc/cron.daily/ everything's fine. Also when I run rsnapshot from roots crontab. So I have no idea what's the issue here. Any ideas / recommendations what to check?

Localize CUPS?
by Niki Kovacs 16 Nov '07

16 Nov '07

Hi, I've been setting up a networked printer in a 100% Linux LAN, and there's only one small problem left: how do I localize the CUPS interface (e. g. the pages I see when opening http://localhost:631 in a browser)? My system is localized in french. LANG is fr_FR.UTF-8 in /etc/sysconfig/i18n. And I checked Firefox: it's supposed to open web content in French. Curiously, I had done similar installs before with Slackware 12, and there, the CUPS interface displayed in french "out of the box", e. g. without specifying it in cupsd.conf. Now IIRC, I had explicitly set a whole bunch of environment variables on my Slackware install (LC_MESSAGES and the likes) to french. 1) Could it be that? 2) Which variable would that be, and where do I set these in CentOS? Slackware's localization variables are all meant to be set in /etc/profile.d/lang.sh. Where is the orthodox place to do that in CentOS? cheers, Niki Kovacs

NS Question
by Victor Padro 16 Nov '07

16 Nov '07

Hello everyone, I got a question, I'm not new in the linux scene or even a geek, but I am confused about certain stuff regarding Bind, DNS stuff, or whatsoever, maybe it's a silly question. Anyway. About 3 years ago I hired a dedicated server in certain company, for hosting my site and some other sites, didn't work at all the plan I had, nevertheless I was using Redhat 9 or something related to redhat, and using plesk as a control panel at that time, i was able to configure two dns servers on that box using the web interface, ns1.olddomain.com and ns2.olddomain.com using two public different IP addresses (201.56.xx.84, 201.56.xx.86), but now i want to do it without using plesk or even a control panel, now can i do this using CentOS? Maybe a tutorial, a howto could help me do the job, i am trying to migrate/learn more about networking using linux, but essencially how does it work, do i need two eth interfaces, virtual adapters, etc. Any help given will be apreciated. Thank you all. Sorry for my english, btw.

Seeking docbook-to-man package
by Kenneth Porter 16 Nov '07

16 Nov '07

I'm looking for a source RPM for docbook-to-man. I'm trying to build/install pxlib: <http://pxlib.sourceforge.net/installation.php> The tarball is set up to create an RPM, but it fails to convert its SGML documentation to man pages because I'm missing docbook-to-man. I found the latter here: <http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/tools/dtm/> I'm hoping someone has packaged this and has a source RPM available.

IO causing major performance issues
by Antonio Varni 16 Nov '07

16 Nov '07

Hello everyone. I'm wondering what other people's experiences are WRT systems becoming unresponsive (unable to ssh in, etc) for brief periods of time when a large amount of IO is being performed. It's really starting to cause a problem for us. We're on Dell PowerEdge 1955 blades - but this same issue has caused us problems on PE1950, PE1850, PE1750 servers. We're running Centos 4.5 right now. I know Centos 5 includes ionice, more io scheduler/elevator selections like deadlock/etc. Perhaps that would fix this issue. We're running the latest PERC firmware. The specific issue I'm referring to at this point is on a system running mysql. All mysql data files are on a netapp filer but mysql's tmp directory is on local disk. Whenever a lot of temp tables are created (and thus written and deleted from local disk quickly) we can't even log in to the machine - and our monitoring system gets all freaked out and we get lots of pages, etc... FYI this is two disks with hardware raid 1. Is it just me? Or is this specific to Dell systems, or is this just the state of the Linux kernel these days? Is there some magical patch I can apply to make this issue go away :) Thanks in advance for any insight into this issue.

Re: [CentOS] IO causing major performance issues
by Ross S. W. Walker 15 Nov '07

Well the CFQ scheduler tries to do just that, but if the amount of io is overwhelming even it cannot compensate. Writes take longer then reads and for a mirror they have to happen on both drives before they can service another request. I suggest you put the temp database on a tempfs to avoid the problem. Set cfq scheduler on /dev/sda if it isn't already. Other then that you could try a different file system like xfs or jfs to see if that helps. -Ross -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org <centos-bounces(a)centos.org> To: CentOS mailing list <centos(a)centos.org> Sent: Thu Nov 15 19:29:20 2007 Subject: RE: [CentOS] IO causing major performance issues Of course IO can swamp the file system. My point is that the kernel should at least give enough time-slices to the other processes (like sshd) so we can still log in.

sdc1 without the sdc
by Scott Moseman 15 Nov '07

15 Nov '07

So I'm working with the iSCSI Initiator and an EqualLogic SAN. I'm not sure when this might have happened, but it appears that the /dev/sdc device is missing, yet the /dev/sdc1 partition exists AND is mountable. Is there a method to re-create the /dev/sdc device? I cannot dd or fdisk it, obviously, but I can mount the /dev/sdc1 partition and it works just fine. Not having the /dev/sdc is messing up my multipath setup (let alone whatever else might be affected). scsi3 : SFNet iSCSI driver Vendor: EQLOGIC Model: 100E-00 Rev: 2.3 Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 05 SCSI device sdc: 8417280 512-byte hdwr sectors (4310 MB) SCSI device sdc: drive cache: write through SCSI device sdc: 8417280 512-byte hdwr sectors (4310 MB) SCSI device sdc: drive cache: write through sdc: sdc1 Attached scsi disk sdc at scsi3, channel 0, id 0, lun 0 # ls -l /dev/sdc* brw-rw---- 1 root disk 8, 33 Nov 7 14:45 /dev/sdc1 Thanks, Scott

central logging/analysis
by Johnny Tan 15 Nov '07

15 Nov '07

I'm interested in doing centralized logging & analysis of logs from my CentOS boxes. I messed around with syslog-ng and it seems like it's a better syslog. But I noticed most of the "usual suspects" of third-party repo maintainers (Dag, Axel, etc.) don't include it. Karanbir has an el4 version, but all my boxes are CentOS 5. I was going to go ahead and roll my own RPM (or, rather, rebuild Karanbir's el4 version), but it occurred to me to check what others were using in this space. Just sticking with plain old syslogd? Paying for splunk? Is there something else I haven't heard about? johnn

FTP with web interface
by Ugo Bellavance 15 Nov '07

15 Nov '07

Hi, I'm looking for a simple way to be able to administer ftp accounts on Centos4 (or 5, if needed). The best would be to have a web interface to do so, but I think I'd rather avoid using webmin... I've seen some tutorials for getting ftp servers to work with MySQL DBs, but I'd like to know how people are working. I'd like to have a separate set of users for ftp than for system. Thanks, -- Ugo Bellavance

Nagios on CentOS 4.5
by Jason Ross 15 Nov '07

15 Nov '07

First off I am a linux / CentOS newbies so go easy on me. Just curious if anyone out there is running Nagios on CentOS 4.5. I have now installed it on a second server due to issue but the issues have come back to haunt me. The OS is running on an IBM NetVista. Every thing in both installs is identical as are the problems. Once I have Nagios up and monitoring every thing hangs. Even a terminal will hang before it finally just locks up. The only thing that brings it back is a reboot. Even stopping the services doesn't work. Disk space seems fine and even during the hangs there doesn't seems to be anything taking up a tremendous amount of resources. After a reboot every thing works fine for several hours. Any guesses or suggestions? Jason Ross

OT: Scripting with sudo password

Completely off topic, but I'm sure someone out there is using scripts that require a sudo password of some sort, so I'll ask. What are people doing to automate tasks that required sudo passwords in order to run? sudo without a password is not an option for me, but I would like to be able to enter the password once have it saved and then read back when sudo is required. something like run_on_all_hosts perform_sudo_command script prompts for password script lauches on all hosts and passes password when required.

rsync problem
by Scott Moseman 14 Nov '07

14 Nov '07

I have a simple script that sends one file to two locations on the same destination server. Here's the code: DEST="remotehost" SRC="/home/boss/application.conf" DST1="/home/user1/application.conf" DST2="/home/user2/application.conf" RSYNC1=`rsync -caW -e ssh $SRC $DEST:$DST1` RSYNC2=`rsync -caW -e ssh $SRC $DEST:$DST2` This runs every 5 minutes. What I'm seeing is the first location occasionally gets a *partial* file, but the second location never has a problem. There does not appear to be any obvious correlation to why this would be happening. I have never witnessed the problem when running the script by hand to try and duplicate, witness any error output, etc. Any idea how to troubleshoot? Or how I can get rsync to verify the file has been transferred without error? A more reliable alternative than using rsync for this situation? Thanks, Scott
