ACL Support and Samba
by Shawn Everett 14 Dec '06

14 Dec '06

I've been playing with filesystem ACLs and wanted to integrate that with Samba to create a more transparent end user experiance. I have set up and tested a JFS partition with ACL support. I can use getfacl and setfacl with no problems to set permissions as needed. It works great. I compiled Samba with ACL support using the --with-acl configure option. Unfortunately I can't seem to get Samba/Windows to list the full set of permissions that show up with a getfacl. Trying to add two users with two different permissions to a file via Windows, returns an "access denied" message. The listed permissions only show the normal owner/group/other permissions and not the more detailed getfacl permissions that have been set up. If anyone has any hints or suggestions it would be apreciated. Shawn

rpmforge/dag's perl-Apache-ASP
by Kevan Benson 13 Dec '06

13 Dec '06

Has anyone actually had any success in installing the perl-Apache-ASP package from rpmforge? CentOS 4 seems to have just the right combination of almost using mod_perl 2 (1.99 before major API changes) to make this extremely hard to get right while staying with somewhat standard packages. I suspect it's in the repo but not actually tested, as I've tried quite a few combinations of using this RPM with the CentOS4 mod_perl and my own mod_perl 2 built using cpan2rpm, as well as my own perl-Apache-ASP.rpm built from CPAN. I've also experienced problems with compiling ePerl into and RPM, mainly due to it's age, but I can probably patch this to get it to build. Suggestions for other solutions with similar functionality are welcome, I'm really just looking for a in-lined perl/HTML solution that provides somewhat respectable performance while altering the actual perl as little as possible (unlike embperl and mason, which each implement a mini-language to varying degrees). -- - Kevan Benson - A-1 Networks

looking for libpangocairo
by Ted Miller 13 Dec '06

13 Dec '06

I installed Komposer from .tgz file, since I couldn't find it on any of my repos. It wants to use libpangocairo, but I can't find anywhere willing to give it to me. I did a yum provides libpangocairo, but nobody would own up to having it. Is there somewhere I can download a compatible .rpm? Is there somewhere I can rpm a compatible libpangocairo? Thanks, Ted Miller Indiana

large disk volumes with 64bit kernel
by Daniel Senie 13 Dec '06

13 Dec '06

I installed 4.4 on a machine that's got two RAID volumes, one of which is a bit over 2.1 terabytes. The installer had no problem. However, fsck does. Commenting out the volume in /etc/fstab, the machine will boot. The machine will mount the volume and use it. Everything seems fine except fsck, which seems, well, fscked. When trying to run fsck, it says: # fsck /dev/sdb1 fsck 1.35 (28-Feb-2004) e2fsck 1.35 (28-Feb-2004) The filesystem size (according to the superblock) is 549346683 blocks The physical size of the device is 12475771 blocks Either the superblock or the partition table is likely to be corrupt! Abort<y>? yes Is there some way to build single volumes larger than 2TB? It should not be a problem with a 64 bit OS (Windows managed to do it on this hardware before I switched it over to Linux). Is there some tuning I need? Any pointers to documents or other useful references would be appreciated. Thanks for any/all help.

It looks like postfix is trying to deliver your mail to a directory that is actually a file. I'd troubleshoot that. If you get nowhere with this I would suggest posting your errors (full logs of the event) and configuration (postconf -n output) to the postfix mailing list. alex

Ext2/3 fs and defragmentationn
by Jordi Espasa Clofent 13 Dec '06

13 Dec '06

Hi all, Fewer days ago a CentOS box server suffered a manual and unexpected reset (too large to explain: there are silly people in everywhere). The result was the system did not mount de root (/) partition and the boot process was stopped. I repair it easily: boot from LiveCD (Knoppix in my case), umount root partition and pass the e2fsck utility. Because of that I've used several fs tools and my surprise was the e2defrag utility. Until the present day I think the ext2/3 fs has not defrag problem. But I've used defrag tools in root partition because it was really fragmented. ¿What do you know about this kind of "trouble"? I supose the fragmentation is ext2/3 fs is lesser problem than in Win fs (FAT32, NTFS) but I'm not sure. -- Jordi Espasa Clofent PGP id 0xC5ABA76A #http://pgp.mit.edu/ FSF Associate Member id 4281 #http://www.fsf.org/

4.4/64-bit Supermicro/ Nvidia Sata RAID Driver
by Karl R. Balsmeier 13 Dec '06

13 Dec '06

Hi, I am installing Centos ServerCD 4.4 64-bit on a new Supermicro board, the RAID BIOS looks fine, RAID 5, all 4 Seagate ES 250 GB drives show up as a single array in the RAID BIOS tool, and the OS install phase completes without a hitch. One thing I noticed was that the OS was loading the sata_nv driver and picking up the 4 Sata drives instead of the large RAID5 volume, it should just appear as one big 1TB drive. Usually it should see the RAID and not worry about loading the sata driver per se from what I remember... When the OS install completes and I reboot, I simply get a blinking cursor. On consulting Amax/ Supermicro, they write: ---snip---- Since this Supermicro model was just recently released, it is possible that the drivers on your installation disk are out of date. Supermicro suggested downloading the latest Redhat Driver from their FTP Site at: ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/driver/SATA/nVidia/MCP55/Linux/Redhat choose either: For 32-bit File: nvsata-rhel4.4-0.11-1.21.i686.img <ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/driver/SATA/nVidia/MCP55/Linux/Redhat/nvsata-rhel4…> 1440 KB 7:03:00 PM or for 64-bit File: nvsata-rhel4.4-0.11-1.21.x86_64.img <ftp://ftp.supermicro.com/driver/SATA/nVidia/MCP55/Linux/Redhat/nvsata-rhel4…> 1440 KB 7:04:00 PM ----snip---- My question is how, during the install, do I specify this driver? Right now the OS simply reads out sata_nv as it progresses, but I see no interrupt point where it allows one to 're-specify' or otherwise encourage the OS to utilize this updated .img file supermicro is suggesting. Any suggestions on the step-by-step sequence for this? bonus/ p.s. -anyone had any experience with the Nvidia onboard RAID/ Supermicros? Did you like it, (I'm an LSI-Logic fan myself), just looking for opinions... -karlski

having had centos running fineon my nw8240 laptop I recently decided to try doing an update, now X wont start up - its keep reporting problems with various gnome libraries missing, if I look in /usr/lib there are some links to files that no longer exist or are different versions i.e. libgnomecanvase-2.so.0 instead of libgnomecanvas-2.so. Is there a simple method of rolling back ? or of getting the ati driver and gnome to work again ? Ian

question on 'VGA in" card
by Jerry Geis 13 Dec '06

13 Dec '06

Hi All, Is there a solution under linux that can accept video in from another source and show it but also be able to turn that source off (in an automated way) and show the normal linux console. Then (in an automated way) switch back and show the external source again. So I want to normally be showing an external VGA input, then based on some event switch the monitor output to the normal linux console, then based on another event switch back to the external VGA signal again. Thanks, Jerry

[Fwd: Server is overloaded, any tips?]
by Administrator 12 Dec '06

12 Dec '06

Yesterday our website was acting a little odd, and i received a few email complaints. Running 'top' showed that we had a very high load average, today the load average is even higher! load average: 13.18, 12.49, 10.48 It is pretty unlikely that our site grew in popularity that quickly, and taking a look at the log file it was saying that a certain directory was not found, when in fact it was just a mod-re-write rule and was not supposed to exist. The website works fine... i am stumped and the error log is getting quite big! Does anyone have any tips on how to find the problem and address it accordingly (quickly)? Many thanks

perl on CentOS 4.4 : PERLIO=perlio vs stdio, readline error handling
by Wojtek.Pilorz 12 Dec '06

12 Dec '06

I sometimes use an example from readline entry in perlfunc(1). This used to work for me, but know (after I upgraded to CentOS) works only if PERLIO=stdio is defined in environment. See the following: [xx@xx testreadline]$ cat testreadline.pl #!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; for my $fn (@ARGV) { local (*F); open F, "< $fn" or die "open err for fn=$fn: $!"; binmode(F); my $c = 0; local $/=\8192; local $_; for (;;) { undef $!; unless (defined($_ = <F>)) { die $! if $!; last; }; $c += length $_; } close(F) or die "close err fn=$fn: $!"; print "fn=$fn, byte count=$c;\n"; } [xx@xx testreadline]$ env LANG=C perl testreadline.pl testreadline.pl Bad file descriptor at testreadline.pl line 14, <F> chunk 1. [xx@xx testreadline]$ env LANG=C PERLIO=perlio perl testreadline.pl testreadline.pl Bad file descriptor at testreadline.pl line 14, <F> chunk 1. [xx@xx testreadline]$ env LANG=C PERLIO=stdio perl testreadline.pl testreadline.pl fn=testreadline.pl, byte count=390; Is the method of checking for errors with readline described in perlfunc(1) no longer good?

Hi, I just tried the below with the current version 1.0 RC15 (from the dovecot website) and I still got the Problem: telnet gives me the following output: -----8<-----8<-----8<-----SNIP-----8<-----8<-----8<----- +OK dovecot ready.u-ERR invalid command u s-ERR invalid command s e-ERR invalid command e r-ERR invalid command r -ERR invalid command u-ERR invalid command u s-ERR invalid command s e-ERR invalid command e r-ERR invalid command r _-ERR invalid command _ 1-ERR invalid command 1 -ERR invalid command -----8<-----8<-----8<-----SNIP-----8<-----8<-----8<----- The above output results from the following entry: user user_1[ENTER] So now I know that this is no version issue. Can you tell me something on how I can find the solution for this problem? I don't think its a firewall issue, I disabled my Desktop Firewall. On the server I use shorewall, but of course, port 110 is open and it works disabling AntiVir on the client side. The error also occurs when I disable the Server Firewall as well. The error is reproducible on several PCs (I tried 3 PCs). Have you got any hint? Without solving the problem, I have to switch the pop3 server to another one, because this problem is really a crucial one.The only problem is: I like dovecot. :) Moreover I'd like to keep dovecot updatable. Thanks in advance!

When I configure a dovecot server to do just plain pop3 I can telnet from a windows box without any flaw, but as soon as the client uses some pop3 proxy (for example outlook uses avira antivir Mail-AntiVirus Protection), queries to that server fail. A log line looks like this: pop3-login: Dec 05 22:53:24 Info: Disconnected [::ffff:84.165.54.42] Moreover with the proxy activated, a telnet to port 110 (pop3) is not working properly, the cursor stays right behind "+OK dovecot ready." and as soon as I enter a character, the server rejects this character as an unknown command. As soon as I turn off the Antivir-Proxy the telnet to port 110 runs flawlessly and I can login. Is there any fix for that? Or did I misunderstand something?

Lighttpd setup with rails

Hi Everyone- I am trying to setup lighttpd on a CentOS 4.2 box after having problems with getting it to work on Apache. I am hoping some fresh eyes can see any errors below.

Here is my lighttpd config pointing to the folder /home/rails/test <- where I created the rails app. Thank you! -Scott server.modules = ( "mod_rewrite", "mod_redirect", "mod_access", "mod_fastcgi", "mod_accesslog" ) server.document-root = "/home/rails/test/public/" server.errorlog = "/var/log/lighttpd.error.log" index-file.names = ( "index.html", "index.htm", "default.htm" ) server.error-handler-404 = "/dispatch.fcgi" #rails stuff ######fastcgi module fastcgi.server = ( ".fcgi" => ( "test" => ( "socket" => "/tmp/test1.socket", "bin-path" => "/home/rails/test/public/dispatch.fcgi", "bin-environment" => ( "RAILS_ENV" => "production" ), "min-procs" => 1, "max_procs" => 2 ) ) ) #### accesslog module accesslog.filename = "/var/log/lighttpd_access.log" url.access-deny = ( "~", ".inc" ) $HTTP["url"] =~ "\.pdf$" { server.range-requests = "disable" } ## # which extensions should not be handle via static-file transfer # # .php, .pl, .fcgi are most often handled by mod_fastcgi or mod_cgi static-file.exclude-extensions = ( ".php", ".pl", ".fcgi" ) ## bind to port (default: 80) server.port = 8080

Re: [CentOS] Up2Date and yum failing
by CM 11 Dec '06

Hmmm I seem to have a catch22 here. I've found the page at http://www.centos.org/modules/news/article.php?storyid=118 that discusses installing yum-pluging-fastestmirror I quote: "*How do I get this new system?* This system is now live. If you update your system with the normal *yum update* command you will get the new *centos-yumconf* package." The thing is, yum update fails with a string of [errno 4] (socket time outs) and [errno 12] (mirror url timeouts) Can I get the file some other way?

Hey friends, I am using FC3 and Centos 4.0 at my home. I have one CD/DVD burner on Centos4.0 and no CD/DVD burner on FC3 machine. I am looking for a free client & server or cross network CD/DVD burning software something like NeroNet available on Windows. Means on the one workstation(FC3) the client software for CD/DVD burning will be installed, through this client software the data to be burned will be passed to the server software for CD/DVD burning installed on the other workstation(Centos4.0) and then the server software will burn the CD/DVD of that data. Please let me know if you need any further inputs. Thanks & Regards Ankush Grover

OT: profiling user applications
by Itay Furman 10 Dec '06

10 Dec '06

Hi, Is there an easy way to obtain statistics of user applications usage: who invoked what; for how long; what resources were used; etc. I am thinking of some kind of a super-ps that will integrate and summarize the usage profile during a long period of time - not just a snapshot. Background: I have a RH 7.3 machine that serves as the central node for a cluster that runs various scientific user applications: mysql, matlab, and various bioinformatics tools. We are considering upgrading the OS (to centos :-), or embedding it in our institute grid. Having detailed information on the usage profile will help us to decide about the strategy, and to implement once decided.

linux sockets on centos (slightly off topic)
by Jerry Geis 09 Dec '06

09 Dec '06

Hi all, I have a snippit from the linux sockets (below) talking about detecting when a socket is closed on the other end. It says the doing a read() will eventually inform you the socket is ECONNRESET. I am not seeing this I open a socket to the peer. I UNPLUG the peer. I plug back in the peer. all the time I am doing read()'s on linux and I get returns of -1 and errno is EINTR from the alarm() around my read() function. I never get ECONNRESET. Am I missing something in detecting the peer no longer having the socket connection? Thanks, Jerry ---------------------------- This text has been taken from the original FAQ. 2.1 - How can I tell when a socket is closed on the other end? From Andrew Gierth ( andrew(a)erlenstar.demon.co.uk) AFAIK: If the peer calls close() or exits, without having messed with SO_LINGER, then our calls to read() should return 0. It is less clear what happens to write() calls in this case; I would expect EPIPE, not on the next call, but the one after. If the peer reboots, or sets l_onoff = 1, l_linger = 0 and then closes, then we should get ECONNRESET (eventually) from read(), or EPIPE from write(). I should also point out that when write() returns EPIPE, it also raises the SIGPIPE signal - you never see the EPIPE error unless you handle or ignore the signal. If the peer remains unreachable, we should get some other error.

Good value for /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes
by Martin Knoblauch 08 Dec '06

Hi, what would be a good value for /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes on a Dual-CPU EM64T System with 8 GB of memory. Kernel is 2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp. I know that the default might be a bit low. Unfortunatelly the documentation is a bit weak in this area. We are experiencing responsiveness problems (and higher than expected load) when the system is under combined memory+network+disk-IO stress.

Anyone using pam_ldap ? need clarifications
by kadafax 08 Dec '06

08 Dec '06

Hi list, I'm using a SSH gateway where our users are authenticated against an openldap server. It's working great and the users can also change their password with the 'passwd' command. My problem is that recently I've tested our users's password for weak entries (with john the ripper) and found that all the password changed with 'passwd' and thus pam_ldap where stored in the directory in cleartext form instead of SSHA. I have "password-hash {SSHA}" in slapd.conf and though that means that SSHA hashes was enforced for all stored password. Both servers are Centos 4.4 fully updated and everything came from standard repositories. Is there someone who manage to use pam_ldap and the use of the 'passwd' command result in a SSHA hashed's password in the directory? Thanks, kfx

Cannot install driver under CentOS/ VMware ?
by MikeW 07 Dec '06

Trying the most basic 'vanilla hello world' kernel driver, install using insmod, and trying in module_init to do a simple kmalloc() fails, kmalloc returns NULL - i.e. cannot allocate memory. The driver loads fine under another non-VM system. Is this a CentOS/VMware quirk ? Does anyone know of a workaround or is it just a fact of life that you cannot use insmod once the system is running ? After all, the 'normal' kernel modules are able to load OK at startup.

CentOS 4.4 and ACLs
by Ian Bonnycastle 07 Dec '06

07 Dec '06

Hey all, I'm using CentOS 4.4, and want to start doing some work with ACLs (getfacl/setfacl). Unfourtunately, no matter what I do, I get the same error over and over again: setfacl: <filename>: Operation not supported I've tried enabling/disabling the acl and xattr modes on my root partition (the one I'm working on), I've tried moving the file to other directories, rebooting the system after I make the changes... nothing. Right now, the system is set up as follows: /etc/fstab: LABEL=/ / ext3,acl defaults 1 1 % mount /dev/sda5 on / type ext3,acl (rw) ... Should I have a particular kernel module loaded? getfacl seems to work fine, but it may be deferring to the lower-level chmod permissions that are already there. If there is a kernel module to load, I can't tell what it should be, since there are none that have "acl" in their names under /lib/modules/<kernel version>. Please help!

Hi, I have a need to install 2.6.18 kernel. After I configure, make, make modules, make install (all that is good). The last thing I do is 'make install'. This also modifies grub.conf and adds an entry for my new kernel. However it leaves the old kernel as still the default. Is there a way to have it automatically set my new kernel as the default in grub.conf so when I reboot the new kernel is active. Thanks, Jerry
