OT - IP Tables - forwarding to localhost
by first last 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

Hi, I am trying to set up a firewall rule so calls to old_mailserver:25 get redirected to localhost:25. I have seen quite a few rules and none seem to work. I have tried with the firewall enabled (configured to allow smtp) and disabled, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. One of the commands I have been using is: /sbin/iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp -d old_mailserver_ip/32 --dport 25 -j REDIRECT --to 127.0.0.1:25 Am I missing anything?

dovecot FC2 (0.99.14) to CentOS4 (0.99.11-8.EL4)
by David Hrbáč 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

Hi, I have to move IMAP mail store from FC Dag's dovecot 0.99.14 to new Centos4 machine. Dovecot complains about corrupted indexes, Missing location field, Data position of record xxx points outside file etc. There's no 0.99.14 version for EL4 in rpmforge. Distribusion version is three steps down - 0.99.11. Any hints? Thanks a lot. David PS: I have rsynced all maildir Friday and today I had to move to the old machine :o(

antivirus
by Wayne 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

Hey Guys, Thanks to everybody who responded to my first email.. Been thinking about this a bit more. Does anybody know if its possible to have all desktops running antivirus logging alerts and to a central linux server which could log to mysql? Would be really handy for reporting. I can see that the updates can be downloaded from a share on a linux server but Im wondering about storing logging data and maybe configuration? Pretty much everything out there these days has a way to log into sql except I can find an antivirus that can do this? Then our current centos server could be a central console for all the antivirus apps on the client windows machines.. Is this possible? To have antvirus alerts logged to sql centrally? Would be pretty sweet... Thanks, Wayne

migration considerations
by Michael Kress 17 Jun '07

17 Jun '07

Hi, I've got a 3ware 9550SX-4LP on a dual xeon 3.6GHz machine (no HVM possible). 4 SATA-HDs in RAID 5 installed. xen 3.0.3 with centos-4.4 as xen0. centos-4.4 is also installed on the numerous xenUs. The xenUs are installed in LVs which are formatted as xfs. Now I'd like to move over to centos 5.0 This is what I thought to be good as an upgrade procedure: 1) install a xen0 to a (bootable) USB hard disk this allows me to go back to my old configuration as soon as I encounter irresolvable probs 2) mount xenU-partitions from xen0 and put modules from the centos5-supplied kernel in there with this test I also test if the 3w_9xxx driver runs smoothly, I'll try bonnie++. 3) run xenUs and test them (Will they run and work?) 4) if all runs good, install xen0 over the old xen0, make backup before. My particular question here is: As it's important to have the 3w_9xxx driver properly loaded with this step, is there anything special I shouldn't forget here? All this shouldn't take me more than 2 hours. What's your opinion? Any more hints? Thanks Michael -- Michael Kress, kress(a)hal.saar.de http://www.michael-kress.de / http://kress.net P E N G U I N S A R E C O O L

Re: [hylafax-users] Having problems running sendfax from a bash script.
by John Warren 16 Jun '07

16 Jun '07

I've been working on a way to send faxes from a bash script. It requires changing what parameters are used for each command. I keep having problems with quoted strings passed to the command. I've created a really short test script which fails on my system. commandline="sendfax -f noreply(a)prudentrx.com -n -x \"Test fax\" -d 13105551212 /etc/hosts" echo "Commandline: $commandline" $commandline When I run the script I get the following: Commandline: sendfax -f jwarren(a)prudentrx.com -n -x "Test fax" -d 13105551212 /etc/hosts fax": Can not open file As you can see the sendfax command is not picking up the "'s around the "Test fax" string so it picks up the Test but thinks fax is the file to fax. If you take the string and execute it from the command line it works. There is something about executing it from a string within a script that causes it to fail. I tried doing the same thing using mail as the command with a quoted subject. Same thing happens, it break after the first space in the subject when executed from a sctips. I've tried using both sh and exec commands but still no joy. I really need to be able to build a command line with quoted text. Anyone have a way to work around this.

Centos 5, X dies, I cry
by Robert Moskowitz 16 Jun '07

16 Jun '07

I just installed Centos 5 for my notebook (HP compaq nc4010) on a separate drive (than this one that has Centos 4.5). When I first booted after all the setup, X did not start. hmm. Rebooted, and X came up fine. I did a bunch of customizing and upgraded the kernel Rebooted, X did not start. Rebooted X started fine. I checked some things out then tried the Suspend feature. Not supprisingly, the system would not come back properly out of suspend. So I pulled the battery and rebooted. Now no X. I looked at the Xorg.0.log and did see one error (but did not write it down, grrr). I have tried to mount that drive via a USB connector, but automount is not handling it, and I don't know how to start working out mounting it manually. SO.... What happened? Oh, not nVidea (or whatever those threads on a video problem is). My video card is the: "ATI Technologies Inc PCI Bridge [IGP 340M]" Is something still wrong becuase of the attempt to try Suspend? Where do I look and what do I change? Possiblely I messed up in customizing? But I did run system-config-display and set things as they are here in Centos 4.5, and rebooted. No change.... please help!

Media formats

Is CentOS held to the same philosophy as Fedora by NOT including apps to play formats such mp3 etc. If this is the case, how easy is it (looking for a how-to url) to add things such as gstream-bad to a Cent install. -- Best regards, Chris

which commands do you use to SSL certify your own server?
by Marco Fioretti 16 Jun '07

16 Jun '07

Hello, I am going to build an email server on Centos for a small, private group of users and I just want to encrypt all communications between that server and the (remote) email clients of those users (or they browsers, when they use webmail). Client certificates are not necessary, at least now. I understand that to do that I need to create my own SSL CA, create with it a self signed certificate and key pair and make sure that the private key is not encrypted, so the server restarts unattended in case of a reboot. I have already looked at man pages and a few online tutorials, but frankly they are not clear on what to do to achieve all and _only_ what I wrote above. Most documentation, when not outdated, seems targeted at much more complex scenarions. Is this sequence of actions and commands correct and complete for my case, or not: 1) cd /usr/share/ssl 2) modify openssl.cnf to have your Common Name and other parameters 3) run: ./CA -newca ./CA -newreq-nodes 4) move the private key from the .pem file to a separate file 5) put the cert and key file in a location where Postfix, 6) Dovecot and Apache can all use them 7) configure each of those servers to use the certificate What have I missed? Thank you in advance for any feedback (I'll have access to the server only over the weekend, but it would be great to have this issue as clear as possible before starting...) Marco

CentOS5: Loss of Prompt & Cursor in Virtual Console Mode
by Robert Thompson 16 Jun '07

16 Jun '07

When I log into a virtual console (e.g.,#4) as ordinary user, I initially have a prompt & cursor. I then do several ls -l /home/user-name and several lines of data. If the number of lines is less than it takes to fill the screen, I will retain the prompt & cursor. If the number of lines (resulting from that last command) fills the screen or more, the last visible line will be data instead of the prompt & cursor. The up arrow no longer gives the previous commands. A clear command will restore the prompt & cursor. This bug appeared a week or two after I installed CentOS5. Bob T.

ip_conntrack table filling up, dropping packets
by yossarian1＠gmail.com 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

Hi, my ip_conntrack table is filling up and now my server is dropping packets. I'm running CentOS release 4.4 (Final) on a fairly busy webserver. The table is full of various connections, including a lot of "ESTABLISHED" tcp connections from my webserver (the src is my webserver ip), and some other random connections to my webserver, and many "ASSURED" connections. So why is it filling up? I changed the default timeout value like so: echo 36000 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_tcp_timeout_established but I don't think that's had any effect. any thoughts? what additional info can I provide that would be helpful? I did find a script that clears out some of the stale connections using hping2, but I don't know if that's really a great solution to this problem. cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_conntrack_max # 34576 after cleaning out the ip_conntrack table using an hping2 script: cat /proc/net/ip_conntrack | wc -l # 3702 -- this number was around 34000 before I cleared it out because it was dropping packets. rebooting the machine, of course, clears it out. I've spent many hours banging my head against the wall trying to figure this out, reading in google groups and in various forums, to no avail. My webserver does send out emails to a few thousand registered users (if they opt it for the email) every day. Thank you for your time! I hope I sent this to the right list. This looked like the right one. Sorry in advance if I made a mistake. Michelson

Freemind 0.8 problems on Centos 5
by Robert Moskowitz 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

I just installed my rpms I bulit and scarfted for Freemind 0.8 on Centos 4.x on my Centos 5.0 system. I referenced all the proper 5.0 repos. But.... No keyboard control (oh, Freemind is a platform independent Java applet). That is <Enter>, <Insert>, <vntrl-S>, etc do NOTHING. The long node format does not display. I can edit the node, and see the edit dialog, but the map view does not show the contents. Any hints on where to look for the problem?

Trying to understand Suspend 2
by Robert Moskowitz 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

I am trying to understand Suspend 2 and what I have to do to get it working in Centos 5. There is quite a bit for it at ATrpms: http://www.atrpms.net/dist/el5/hibernate-suspend2/ http://www.atrpms.net/dist/el5/kernel-suspend2/ The later is the kernel patches that they refer to at the Suspend2 website, so I don't have to recompile the kernel? I noticed that over at: http://www.atrpms.net/dist/el5/madwifi/ There are even rpms for BOTH Suspend2 and Madwifi (my situation, and I have been using the 'regular' madwifi parts for over a year now). So can anyone give me a bit of guidance/confirmation on setting up Suspend2. Thanks.

CentOS 5 hung while "Checking dependencies..."
by Rob van der Heij 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

Since CentOS 4 turned out to be short on supporting my sound card, I picked up a the DVD for 5. I have been running 4 on this PC fine though. The install hangs in "Checking dependencies in packages selected for installation..." with the bar at 3/4 or so. I thought this was because I took the offer to upgrade my CentOS 4 installation, but it hangs at the same spot for a new install, even when I do not tamper with the selected packages. What's my approach to move forward? I did check the DVD with the verification step. Rob

> Or is Redhat correct that there is nothing > improved here and wait for 3.0? Sorry to jump in, but where is that you saw Red Hat saying "there is nothing _improved_ in FF2"?! I suppose RHEL5 doesn't have FF2 because "it's too new", but here is what I terribly miss while using FF1.5: -- saving the whole session, even when FF crashes (yes, FF _may_ crash); it saves even the text you were writing in a textarea! -- spell-checking (extremely useful when you're not a native speaker). But indeed is kinda shame that there isn't any 3rd party repo providing FF2 for EL5. (I don't expect EPEL to have it. because FC6 was on FF1.5 too). But for Thunderbird 2.0, I agree: I can't see anything _significantly_ improved. Cheers, R-C Ask a question on any topic and get answers from real people. Go to Yahoo!

Hi, Sorry this is OT. I was wondering if anyone had any tips or advice on a password management and distribution system for systems admin type purposes? We're just a small team of engineers currently using GPG/PGP to distribute passwords securely now. However it's already becoming an admin pain with who gets what password etc. -- N

dell 2950 servers and centos 4 or 5
by Robert - eLists 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Greetings Part of this may be OT Anyone running CentOS 4 or 5 with the newer Dell 2950 servers? Mainly thinking in terms of basic Internet facing applications Anything special to report good or challenging? Any hardware or drivers issues? Anything not to order as an option or not do? Should one stick to dual core or go to quad core? Does it really matter? What is the best way to order raid1 and raid5 storage on these units with and without hot plug Will either way keep the deployment of CentOS easy and happy. I am used to ordering and deploying hp proliant intel rackmount servers using 3.5 hotplug scsi Im not that familiar with the terms on the dell website for SAS (cant tell if hotplug) although I know what SATA is and I am not familiar with Serial-Attach SCSI hotplug. Thank in advance for your advise or experiences. - rh

Recommendation/pointers please - Need to brush up on CentOS/Linux command line tools
by Dale 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Hi all, I would very much appreciate any suggestions on any online resources, or even a decent book to purchase with the focus of brushing up on Linux command line tools. The focus is on troubleshooting type commands, adding users from command line and so forth. While I am reasonably comfortable using the command line, I will be the first to admit I am slow on some things and have gaps in my knowledge especially for those commands I have never needed to use. I tend to use Webmin for a lot of things. For an upcoming job transition I need to fill in the gaps to be able to do these same things I currently do via webmin at the command line. So any suggestions/pointers, etc would be very much appreciated. I wonder if there is a Linux for Dummies book out there (provided it deals with the command line vs. a GUI). Thanks Dale

kickstart fails statically built custom kernel: anaconda doesn't honor static NIC/SATA driver in kernel?
by Guolin Cheng 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Kickstart fails for statically built custom booting kernel, although the custom kernel is built form the same version stock kernel source. My anaconda and kernel source are both of stock versions on Centos 5. At the kickstart 'F3' screen, the following error messages appear: Modules to insert tg3 ... ... ERROR: no network devices in choose network device! ERROR: no network drivers for doing kickstart ERROR: unable to bring up network. The network card driver tg3 is statically built into custom kernel to fix NIC driver loading sequence problem( I have mixed type NICs on these boxes), so there is no tg3.ko in my rolled modules/modules.cgz file. Does this problem mean that kickstart/anaconda doesn't recognize NIC/SATA drivers statically built into booting kernel? Anaconda needs everything to exist in dynamic module form (*.ko in modules.cgz)? Thanks.

Ndiswrapper for Realtek 8180L on CentOS 5.0
by Manish Kathuria 14 Jun '07

14 Jun '07

Hello, I had installed CentOS 5.0 on my desktop PC having a Realtek 8180L based PCI wireless card. Since the drivers for this chip are not available in the kernel, I created RPMs for ndiswrapper-1.43 from the source code and installed them. I could configure the wireless card and use it but invariably the system freezes after sometime. No such thing happens if the wireless card is disabled. In the past, I have been using ndiswrapper on the same system on CentOS 4.3 and 4.4 and multiple Fedora distributions without any problem. I have also updated to the latest kernel and recreated the ndiswrapper modules but the problem persists. What could be the possible reason ? Thanks, Manish

Dual boot in CentOS 4.4
by Andrew Allen 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

I've recently upgraded from RedHat 9 to CentOS 4.4. With RH9 I had a dual boot system with Windows XP (RH9 as the default of course!), which was automatically set up when I installed RH9 in the remaining partition after I'd installed XP. However, I appear to have lost my dual boot with CentOS 4.4 (no option to boot into DOS now), even though I still have the Windows XP partition, so how can I (re-) set up the dual boot? Thanks, Andy

I am trying to bind keys on centos 5. I want to run my own APP when I hit keypad 4 and a different APP when I hit keypad 5. I was looking at xmodmap but I dont see how to execute my own command? I was looking in the gnome keyboard shortcuts but I dont see how to enter a command it only lets you change the accelerator for a given action. Not create a new action. How can I setup keypad 4 and 5 to run app1 and app2 respectively? THanks, Jerry

freq scaling on centos 5
by Jerry Geis 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

In the old centos 4 we had cpuspeed and we could send a SIGUSR1 to it so the CPU would run at max speed. In centos 5 cpuspeed is not running. (although running with cpuspeed -C will go full speed) what is the correct way now in centos 5 to on the fly say run at full speed then sometime later tell it to drop back down? I have no process to signal any more. Jerry

Two Issues - Postfix and Gamin
by Brent DiNicola 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

Greetings, I have done a bit of searching and I have found that the 4.5 version of Postfix is the following rpm: postfix-2.2.10-1.1.el4.i386.rpm. I had previously had the CentOSPlus version with mysql compiled in and just recently upgraded to 4.5 from 4.4, upon doing this.. the above RPM was installed, which is greater than the postfix with mysql from CentOSPlus, which is the following rpm: postfix-2.2.10-1.RHEL4.2.mysql_pgsql.c4.i386.rpm (note the 2.2.10-1 version without the extra .1 from above.) I tried to manually install the postfix with mysql but of course the versioning is greater on 4.5 rpm, is there a plan to fix this or should I try to roll my own RPM with mysql included? This happened to restart during a 5am auto yum update, causing my server to bounce this morning until I found it, ooops my bad! The second issue is also with 4.5 but with Gamin. I have about 20 Linux CentOS workstations that have been running nicely for several months (almost years) and after the 4.5 upgrade I have noticed that the gam_server process with Gamin keeps sucking up all the CPU cycles after a short time of running. (Sometimes tied to screen saver use but not always). I haven't changed anything in my environment that I can see would cause this problem after the 4.5 upgrade. (Same file server for NFS mounts, same autofs entries etc). Has anyone else noticed this issue and found a work around, I did some digging but most entries on this issue are from the 2005 range which didn't fix my issue and/or were for an older version. The /etc/gamin/gaminrc didn't fix it through various mutations of entries and short of removing the gam_server from libexec, I would like to find a solution or know if anyone else has experienced this issue. Thanks Brent PS. Great work guys on the OS, I have lurked on the Mailing lists for a number of years and you are doing outstanding work and support. Great JOB! -- Brent DiNicola/Whitewolf The Whitewolf of Imrryr <centos .AT. elric.net> http://www.elric.net Disclaimer: Any opinions expressed here are from my dog. Any liabilities fall to the dog.
