Open Office - libIDL.x86_64 - AMD64
by centos＠bathnetworks.net 23 Nov '06

23 Nov '06

Hi, I am trying to install via yum group install, open office. I am having a dependancy problem. I get: /nTransaction Check Error: package libIDL-0.8.4-1.centos4 (which is newer than libIDL-0.8.4-1) is already installed yum list gives: Installed Packages libIDL.x86_64 0.8.4-1.centos4 installed Available Packages libIDL.i386 0.8.4-1 base It looks like OO is looking for the 32 bit verson of the library whereas the 64 bit verson is installed. How do I fix this? I am running the x86_64 arch. Thanks in advance Rob

how beta is ppc centos 4?
by Dustin Krysak 23 Nov '06

23 Nov '06

Hi there, I am looking for a rhel close to run on a PPC. I have used centos for a while and want to stick with what I know. I know there is a V4.0 PPC beta version. How safe is it to use? I have a server that will be going into production, and am hesitant to use a beta product (as one should never use anyways). What is the status of the PPC version? Is it going to be continued to be developed? Is it dropped as the macs have gone to an intel architecture? Does anyone else know of a PPC rhel clone besides centos if it is not really in dev anymore? Thanks! d

XFS Issues
by Stephen C. Rigler 23 Nov '06

23 Nov '06

We are in the process of migrating XFS filesystems from one storage array to another. Both are arrays are mounted locally on the same CentOS 4.4 system (x86_64). We are running kernel 2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp along with kernel-module-xfs-2.6.9-42.0.2.ELsmp-0.1-3. The issue we are having is that while the copy is running (using rsync) the system will log these message periodically: kernel: XFS: possible memory allocation deadlock in kmem_alloc (mode:0x250) kernel: XFS: possible memory allocation deadlock in kmem_alloc (mode:0x2d0) Eventually the system will panic. This looks similar to this bug: http://oss.sgi.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=410 which was apparently fixed in April. Is there any chance that the fix will make it into the centosplus kernel-module-xfs? Thanks, Steve The output of the crash is below: Nov 7 12:50:31 houla0 Unable to handle kernel paging request at 0000001116a20188 RIP: Nov 7 12:50:31 houla0 <ffffffff80309ec6>{schedule+2164} Nov 7

Configuring Multiple Gateways
by Matthew Martz 23 Nov '06

23 Nov '06

I'm in need of installing two NICs in a machine that are connected to 2 different public networks and I need both IP addresses accessible from the outside. The IPs are part of two completely different subnets. For example: eth0 IP - 10.10.10.2/30 GW - 10.10.10.1 eth1 IP - 20.20.20.6/30 GW - 20.20.20.5 How can I configure 2 gateways on this server?

I pretty much have this same setup. I don't have routing enabled is all. I configure each ethx device like they were on a single network. When your system is up and running, check the routing table, using route. It'll tell you which interface can reach which networks. My setup has 192.168.a.b/24 on eth0, 192.168.c.d/24 on eth1 and I can ping hosts on both networks. There's always a possibility I don't understand your question! :) Thanks!

Well, the way I configure my servers is that no data gets stored on an OS partition. Once the server is built, I create an image of it, and store it off on another machine. For any incremental changes, I use rsync to keep track of changes for the entire system. So, if a drive should die, I can pop in a new drive and restore with g4l. Then use the latest rsync backup to restore all the changes. I've done this on several occasions, and it works very well, even on systems with terabytes of data. The key is to keep data and OS software on seperate partitions, or better yet, drives. Thanks!

howto compile wine on centos 4 and x86_64
by Jerry Geis 22 Nov '06

22 Nov '06

Hi all, I am trying to compile wine on x86_64 for 32 bit world. I found the fedora 5 wiki which states: ------------------------- Building Wine on Fedora Core 5 x86_64 Run the following commands as root: cd /usr/lib ln -s libfreetype.so.6 libfreetype.so ln -s libXext.so.6 libXext.so ln -s libX11.so.6 libX11.so ln -s libGLU.so.1 libGLU.so All the required development packages are available in the /core/ and /extras/ repositories. Run configure with: ./configure --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib --x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --with-x make depend make ---------------- however when I do this I get errors. make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/silentm/wine-0.9.25/libs/wine' make[2]: Entering directory `/home/silentm/wine-0.9.25/libs/wine' gcc -c -I. -I. -I../../include -I../../include -D__WINESRC__ -DWINE_UNICODE_API="" -D_REENTRANT -fPIC -Wall -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wwrite-strings -Wpointer-arith -g -O2 -D__i386__ -o casemap.o casemap.c In file included from ../../include/windef.h:234, from ../../include/wine/unicode.h:26, from casemap.c:4: ../../include/winnt.h:764:1: warning: "CONTEXT_CONTROL" redefined ../../include/winnt.h:719:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition ../../include/winnt.h:765:1: warning: "CONTEXT_INTEGER" redefined ../../include/winnt.h:720:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition ../../include/winnt.h:766:1: warning: "CONTEXT_SEGMENTS" redefined ../../include/winnt.h:721:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition ../../include/winnt.h:767:1: warning: "CONTEXT_FLOATING_POINT" redefined ../../include/winnt.h:722:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition ../../include/winnt.h:768:1: warning: "CONTEXT_DEBUG_REGISTERS" redefined ../../include/winnt.h:723:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definitio This seems to be due to the fact that __i386__ and __x86_64__ are both defined in winnt.h I looked elsewhere and they mention having to install libc6-dev.i386. I tried doing yum provides to try and find it but I cannot find it. Has anyone gotten x86_64 wine to build? Can you share your steps? Or what about this libc6-dev.i386 package? Thanks, Jerry

digikamimageplugins from Karan's repo
by Aleksandar Milivojevic 22 Nov '06

22 Nov '06

Hi, I've just installed digikam and digikamimageplugins from Karan's repo. The digikam package works nicely, however if I try to use any of the plugins from digikamimageplugins, digikam crashes complaining about unresolvable symbols, for example: digikam: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib64/kde3/digikamimageplugin_adjustlevels.so: undefined symbol: _ZN7Digikam16ImageGuideWidgetC1EiiP7QWidgetbi I've noticed that there's discrepancy in versions between digicam and digicamimageplugins (0.8.1 vs. 0.7.4) which I beleive is where the problem might be. Is there digicamimageplugins-0.8.1 RPM for CentOS? If not, I could probably easilly rebuild my own. Just wondering if somebody already did it. Thanks, Alex

You should stick to IP addresses only. This is because at boot time, the iptables module is loaded in the kernel before DNS-related modules, which could have a significant impact (say you allow everything from yourself from outside the box using a domain... well you risk a lockout as it won't resolve..! ;) Hope this helps!

Top process automatically killed
by Abd El-Hameed Ayad 21 Nov '06

21 Nov '06

Hi, Can modifications to /etc/security/limits.conf cause top process to be automatically killed. First, Here is the contents of the /etc/security/limits.conf * hard cpu 2 * soft nproc 5 * hard nproc 10 mailnull hard nproc 100 What i have noticed that top process is always killed, But after hacking investigations like monitoring bandwidth, monitoring chatbots, running rkhunter, verifying ps & top binaries i found the server appears clean. During this monitoring i noticed that always top process automatically killed when TIME+ column shows 1:59.96 and not all top processes are killed at the same time (i am logging via multiple ssh sessions),just the process that get 1:59:96 in the TIME+ column. Now, are there anyway that i can -as root- do that with myself by previous settings. thanx for your concern. hameed

Bind problem - rndc key (after update?)
by kadafax 19 Nov '06

19 Nov '06

Hi list, here is what happened: today I noticed some resolution's problems on my network. I did a "service named status" and here was the output: # /etc/init.d/named status rndc: connection to remote host closed This may indicate that the remote server is using an older version of the command protocol, this host is not authorized to connect, or the key is invalid. In the named's log, several entries like that: general: error: invalid command from 127.0.0.1#42033: bad auth I am not using the key's authentication on my chrooted bind dns and it was working great so far. Searching on rndc's files in /etc I've found mismatch for the key value in /etc/rndc.conf and /etc/rndc.key. There was also a rndc.key.rpmnew file. After giving the good value for the key entry (I've copied-pasted the value from the .key file), the bind daemon seems to be happy now. My question is how things get broken because I didn't touch the bind's config files for a year or so (only the zone files, sometime) ? --------------- CentOS 4.4 fully updated [root@host etc]# rpm -qa | grep bind ypbind-1.17.2-8 bind-libs-9.2.4-16.EL4 bind-utils-9.2.4-16.EL4 bind-chroot-9.2.4-16.EL4 bind-9.2.4-16.EL4 [root@host etc]# uname -a Linux host 2.6.9-42.0.3.ELsmp #1 SMP Fri Oct 6 06:28:26 CDT 2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux ----------------- Thanks for any input.

Upgrading subversion
by Ronan Lucio 19 Nov '06

19 Nov '06

Hello, I´d like to install subversion system in our server (CentOS-4.4) up2date has the subversion-1.1.4-2, but subversion is already on verson 1.4.2 Perhaps I loose good features if I install subversion-1.1.x, but I prefer to use the version delivered by up2date, of course. 1) What do you suggest? If I try to install subversion-1.4.2 from source it asks for apr and apr-util version 0.9.7 or above but up2date has apr and apr-util version 0.9.4 2) If I upgrade it via RPM could I have some compatibilty breaked? Thanks, Ronan

What happened to the RescueCD?
by Karl Hanzel 18 Nov '06

18 Nov '06

Hey folks - So what happened to the RescueCD ISO?... i'm not finding it under the ...centos/4.4/isos/ dir, as i believe it generally has been previously. At my office, we have a local mirror, and i've always just burned the RescueCD ISO and booted with that. At the prompt i supply "linux askmethod" and then later reference our local mirror to do an install or upgrade. The RescueCD is (or was) particularly convenient, because it's small & quick to download & burn. Is there a simple alternative that i'm overlooking? Thanks *----->

So at least there is no patching required (the patch is still out there, but I think it's for 2.4.1). It would be nice to have someone maintain an RPM in a reputable repo for it, but I really wonder how much need there is for this particular configuration. It would be interesting to find out what if anything others are doing to provide dialin services with CentOS. With broadband getting cheaper and hot-spots becoming more accessible we find far less need, but there are always those situations... alex

Java JDK on CentOS 4.4
by Edward Diener 17 Nov '06

17 Nov '06

I did not choose Java when I installed CentOS 4.4 and I want to install a JDK to do Java programming. What is the default Java JDK for CentOS 4.4 ? I see under YumEx very little which looks like a Java JDK. Is there one in the distribution ? Is there a way to get Sun's latest JDK 5 installed safely and successfully on CentOS 4.4, perhaps via an RPM for it tailored to CentOS 4.4, or should I just use the one on Sun's web site ? After installing the RPM is there anything else I have to do to get it to work properly in CentOS 4.4 ? Any help is gratefully appreciated.

sendmail/RPM question
by Dan Pritts 17 Nov '06

17 Nov '06

Hi all - I've got a regular problem that i've been fixing by hand for a long time but i'm hoping i can get some advice about the right way to solve it. I replace the default redhat/centos sendmail configuration files with my own set. I have always just done this by hand. One thing I do is completely whack submit.cf. when i update the system, RPM recreates this file. I've manually fixed things in the meantime, so I'm not sure of this, but I kinda think that it updates sendmail.cf too (specifically, I make a symlink sendmail.cf to my own cf file; i haven't experimented to see what happens when i install directly. I know at a very basic level how to create an RPM. But I expect that if I create an RPM containing sendmail.cf, I will get a conflict with the existing sendmail.cf from the sendmail rpm; and I don't know how to override it. I also don't know how to make it so that the submit.cf file just doesn't exist; I am pretty sure that if that file exists, it will get called by default when people call sendmail from the command line. Suggestions? (not to include, "give in to running sendmail as a daemon in submission mode, etc") thanks danno -- Dan Pritts, System Administrator Internet2 office: +1-734-352-4953 | mobile: +1-734-834-7224

pppd and radius
by Alex Palenschat 17 Nov '06

17 Nov '06

I've been googling, but after getting nowhere for a while I thought I'd ask for a direction to head in. I am replacing a RH7.1 box that was performing dial-in service using a pppd patched for radius support. I'd prefer not to do things this way and would like to use a more easily updated configuration. What I need it to do is do auth against a radius server and support windows clients. What is the RHEL/Centos way of doing this? alex

Can someone please tell me what the name and or website of the open source realtime daemon or script is that automatically puts ip addresses in the hosts.deny file when servers are repeatedly probed for login/password pairs on ftp ports etc please? It was mentioned in the last year on this list if I remember right. I had bookmarked at one time and I cant seem to web search or find it otherwise.

Replay mail to test MTA + filtering
by MrKiwi 17 Nov '06

17 Nov '06

Hi All, My kit : Centos4.4 + Postfix + SA + ClamAV (not that its relevant) General question - Does anyone know of a product which can take a folder / mbox of mail (spam, ham, virus infected stuff, scam mail and hoaxes) and "replay" it back against a test server to determine the servers ability to filter? I have looked at some low level (IP) packet replayers, but i cant really find anything suitable at the mail/smtp level. It would have to "simulate" connections from external IP addresses to allow RBL etc to work and also i guess i would have to choose an "MTA style" of the sender to be simulated so that the MTA i am testing can do its thing when some tries something which fails the smtpd_*_restrictions tests. It will probably be the case that i need to "recapture" the mail at a higher detail, as an RFC compliant unit of mail in my mailbox doesn't tell me anything about how the smtp conversation went, and certainly doesn't allow me to recreate the conversation. Is anyone building something like this? Any hints appreciated. Regards, MrKiwi

Snortsam manipulates firewall rules (optionally on multiple hosts/firewalls) and is quite a bit more work to set up if I recall from when I looked at it. The largest requirement is to have a working snort install which he may not have. alex
