to <cr> or not
by Robert Moskowitz 28 Feb '06

28 Feb '06

I have had some success (read no noticed problems), moving some text conf files from a Win <cr,lf> format to Linux and have them work. For example my zone files, moving them from my Win DNS server. But what about other files? I guess I want to know this more to prevent a mistake from crashing things, as I do have GEDIT. If I were to build an anaconda-ks.cfg in notepad, write it to a floppy then did a linux ks=floppy, would it work? I have search the archives and google, but either I am missing the right search words, or something.

yum/x86_64
by Les Mikesell 28 Feb '06

28 Feb '06

Starting from the 4.2 Server install on x86_64 I did a "yum update", then "yum install openssl openssl-utils" and it appears to have installed an assortment of i386 programs and libs. How do I get rid of the wrong ones? Specifically, what I want is the right stuff to run the beta VMware server. It looks like it needs some X libs and yum wants to install i386 versions of those too. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

restarting on scalix - thankyou
by Robert Moskowitz 28 Feb '06

28 Feb '06

thank you all for your help. Recently, ver 10 came out for scalix and it includes all the 'third party' pieces like JDK and Tomcat. So now I am reading up on kickstart to rebuild this system and start clean. I have copied all of my changed files (I hope!!) onto my notebook, and am doing the one mod i need for kickstart (original was a CD install, this time FTP). So I will know very shortly if this will all work! I see in the anaconda file the instructions for partitioning my hard drive, which is very good as I did not clearly write down what I did! Another fun filled day!

Updating my install directory
by Robert Moskowitz 28 Feb '06

28 Feb '06

Maybe YAM is the 'only' way to do this, and if so, well then its got to wait a while.... Situation: Right now the only usable disk space to locate the install CD files for an FTP/HTTP install is a Win2000 server. Accessed via FTP/HTTP. So when I do an install from it, I then need to do a yum update and it takes quite some time. At some point in the next quarter, I will be stable with Centos and my install will move to a Centos server and I guess then I would use YAM. Is there something I can download from one of the mirrors to bring this directory fairly up to date?

LDAP authentication problems
by Kai 28 Feb '06

28 Feb '06

I am working on a ldap base to authenticate user. My problem is binding to ldap with phpldapadmin or cpu. I can bind anonymously with phpldapadmin. ldapadd, ldapsearch etc. works. Users in the database can logon, so the authentication works, but I cant bind.... I need some input please, I cant find the missing link. ERRORS: # ldappasswd norman SASL/DIGEST-MD5 authentication started Please enter your password: ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Internal (implementation specific) error (80) additional info: SASL(-13): user not found: no secret in database OK: [root@server1 ldap]# passwd norman Changing password for user norman.

Off-Topic Mambo Vulnerabilities & Patches
by Jim Smith 28 Feb '06

28 Feb '06

On the Mambo CMS site there are vulnerabilities found. Whilst this is not a CentOS problem, people rent/deploy servers (CentOS) on the net with Mambo. A guy in one of the user forums on the net, had his Mambo 4.5.2 server hacked and they installed some interesting stuff in /tmp . When a server is hacked it gives bad PR for the underlying OS. <----announcement on http://www.mamboserver.com/-----> Investigations by GulfTech Research And Development have revealed a long standing weakness in Mambo that could allow a hacker to compromise sites built on Mambo. The firms findings will be published in about a week's time. The Mambo development team has created fixes for versions 4.5.3 and 4.5.3h. The new patch files can be found at MamboXchange The patch packages are delivered in both ZIP and TAR.GZ formats - select whichever is right for you. Each package contains two files - content.php and mambo.php. These should replace the corresponding files in your existing installation, as follows: (1) The first file (content.php) should be used to overwrite this file:/components/com_content/content.php. (2) The second file (mambo.php) should be used to overwrite this file: /includes/mambo.php. If you are running an earlier version of Mambo than 4.5.3 we recommend that you consider upgrading. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Bandwidth limiting and shaping
by Mace Eliason 28 Feb '06

28 Feb '06

Hi, I have a client that is looking for an solution to do bandwidth monitoring and traffic shapping. I would like to use Centos if possible, but I need somthing that has a GUI so they can easily make changes and updates. It would have to be ip based or mac address. What would you suggest. I have looked a Ipcop and smoothwall as solutions so far. Thanks

vpopmail over NFS not seeing new messages.
by Will McDonald 28 Feb '06

28 Feb '06

Hi all. We've just migrated our back-end NFS mailstore from FC1 systems to CentOS4 and are experiencing problems/delays with vpopmail and user Maildirs. IMAP is fine, it's just POP access that causes us problems. Now, NFS mounts successfully, the clients can see /home/vpopmail and serve content as we would expect. IMAP works perfectly and sees new messages as soon as they're delivered into the Maildir, but POP doesn't seem to see new messages until about 90 minutes after it arrived. Messages can be seen in users' Maildir/new on the filesystem. The timestamps on new messages on the NFS filesystems don't appear to be formatted correctly, I'm guessing this could cause the POP weirdness? On an NFS client... [root@mailserv2 new]# ls -ltr total 4 -rw------- 1 vpopmail vchkpw 854 Feb 28 2006 1141126119.27119.mailserv1,S=773 Whereas on the NFS mailstore... [root@tempmailstore1a new]# ls -ltr total 4 -rw------- 1 vpopmail vchkpw 854 Feb 28 12:44 1141126119.27119.mailserv1,S=773 'touch'ing the files, either from the client or server doesn't appear to fix the timestamps. The old FC mailstores were running... kernel 2.4.22-1.2188.nptl nfs-utils-1.0.6-1 DRBD 0.6.12 heartbeat-1.0.4-2.fr.c.1.um.2 The new CentOS mailstores and all their clients are running... kernel 2.6.9-22.0.1.ELsmp nfs-utils-1.0.6-65.EL4 DRBD 0.7.14 heartbeat-1.2.3.cvs.20050927-1.centos4 Qmailrocks 2.2.0 /etc/exports on the mailstores contains... /mnt/drbd/ mailserv1(rw,sync,no_root_squash) /mnt/drbd/ mailserv2(rw,sync,no_root_squash) /mnt/drbd/ mailserv3(rw,sync,no_root_squash) /mnt/drbd/ mailserv4(rw,sync,no_root_squash) And the NFS mounts on the client mailservers look like... mailstore1:/mnt/drbd/home /home nfs defaults 0 0 If anyone's seen this or can shed any light it'd be much appreciated.

CPAN module install problem

I could use some assistance getting CPAN functional again. CPAN stopped working on Centos 4.2 x64, and I can no longer install modules. I did a install Bundle::CPAN and upgraded to 1.8.2, and perl was updated afterwards via yum update.

Telling software system really has 512Mb memory
by Robert Moskowitz 28 Feb '06

28 Feb '06

I am stuck in my Scalix install. It checks for 512Mb memory. At some point I am suppose to get the extra memory, but for now I am stuck at 256Mb. Is there some system value that I can set so that the installer is led to believe there is 512Mb of memory, so I can at least get this stuff installed?

Possible missing packages?

Is there an rpm package for the latest kernel-source? What about perl-CGI I did a search and install using yum and nothing was returned? This seems kind of odd? Any ideas?

In over my head -- sorry
by Robert Moskowitz 28 Feb '06

28 Feb '06

I got in over my head. jpackage was/is too much for me at this time. Maybe for a long time. Sorry for diverting your efforts to try and help me. I only want to run SCALIX CE on this system. It needs the jdk and tomcat. But if you look: http://www.scalix.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=516&highlight=centos A number have gotten it running just fine with the 'broken' sun stuff. Perhaps Scalix is not so 'demanding'. So I am following instructions from above URL. I did learn a lot here, making up for some of the implied steps in the instructions. Perhaps I will have to do a complete reinstall of Centos to get out of the jpackage mess I might be in. Well I REALLY should learn Kickstart, and perhaps I will do that for this system! Again you are all a great help. If you need some crypto help. 802.11i or such, that is where I 'live'. Well at least I help right the specs. Someelse has to code them! Barrs Law of Recursive futility If you're smart enough to use one of these.... .....you can probably manage without one!

Mouse hour glass and desktop
by BRUCE STANLEY 27 Feb '06

27 Feb '06

What does it mean when your mouse hour glass pointer turns into a skull and cross bones symbol for a few seconds and is then followed by your desktop icons being scrambled around to different locations. This reminds me of a bug in the old Windows 98 SE desktop. What would cause this? This has happened to me once before on Fedora 3 (I think, maybe 2).

Sendmail.cf / access.db
by Sam Drinkard 27 Feb '06

27 Feb '06

I've noticed from the sendmail logs, certain IP's are being blocked via the known spammers configuration in the sendmail.cf. What I also note is in my access file, I have several TLD's that are listed, yet are NOT being blocked. Yes, I do call a make after each edit of the access list, and going by the timestamp on access.db, it appears to being updated, yet again, in the sendmail portion of the daily logs, those TLD's which are in the access list are not listed as being blocked. Hope that is not too confusing.. think I confused myself, but in any case, things are in there that should be blocked and are not being. Hints? Sam

lsraid on centos 4.2

On older systems redhat 9 there was a command lsraid.... I have a centos 4.2 system that does not have that command. What is the new command that is equivalent to "lsraid -a /dev/md0"? Or is there a package that does not get loaded by default? Lsraid is not on my system. THanks, jerry

Assistance requested
by Sam Drinkard 27 Feb '06

27 Feb '06

Hi List, I've run into a library problem I believe might be related to the portland group compiler, and / or the libs on CentOS. Essentially what is happening is the primary executable I'm trying to run is failing under mpi. Here's the output from the command (which would be the same as the script calling it) $ /usr/local/mpich/bin/mpirun -machinefile machines.LINUX -np 2 ./wrf.exe /home/sam/WRFV2/run/./wrf.exe: /usr/pgi/linux86-64/6.0/lib/libpthread.so.0: version `GLIBC_2.3.3' not found (required by /lib64/tls/librt.so.1) Oddly enough, this same kernel environment works quite well with a previous version of the WRF code, but fails miserably with this update.. The compiler which bullt the old package built the new one too. The current package is still running by setting "LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.2" which was suggested by Maze, back some months ago. I've tried different permutations of the LD kernel assumption, but all fail. One note tho, the wrf.exe file will work in single cpu mode *with* the kernel environment set to 2.4.2, and it also runs under mpi, albeit a private version in a user directory, but they are both identical builds. Is there any other work-arounds someone could point me to, or perhaps some documentation that might explain what the thing is doing? Not a lot of real good info that a non-programmer can understand in the mpich manpages, but still no mention of errors possible like this. Running in single CPU mode takes about 5 hours, where the dual CPU method, based on the old version of the code only takes a shade ovver 2.25 hours. Regards.... Sam

Apache patching questions

Hi I'm using CentOS 3, and it's fully patched using yum. Apache reports version 2.0.46 (CentOS) A colleague ran a copy of Nikto, a scripted vuln. finder, against my server, and reported the following problems.

Server Assistant from Dell?
by Geert Batsleer 23 Feb '06

23 Feb '06

Hello, I'm planning to install centos 4.2 x86_64 on a Poweredge 2800. This system comes with a EFI utility partition and has software called Server Assistant wich helps you to install your OS so that things like RAID and such can get monitored in an 'indepent' way afterwards through this EFI partition. When booting into the Server Assistant (the software is on a linux liveCD btw) I get the choice between a couple of supported OS's like MS server 2003, Novell or RHEL 3 or 4. So thinking that centos 4 is rhel 4 "without the artwork" I choose for the RHEL4 option and inject CD 1 from centos 4.2 ... but unfortunately I get the error wich asks me to insert the correct CD. Did anyone found a solution for this? I can always delete this EFI partition and install it the normal way but this feature looks nice to play with :-) kind regards, ivago

Proper way to give rights at the file system?

Root is the group and user owner of the files. What is the "proper" way to give rights for this user? Thanks, James

CentOS 4.3 for ppc32
by Barry Brimer 22 Feb '06

A while back, there was mention that the release of CentOS 4.3 would bring a ppc32 version. Is this still in the works? If so, is it scheduled to be released at the same time as the more popular releases, or at a later time? Thanks, Barry

That's a good question... I'm using yum with dag's repository added. I could have sworn that it had an old version when I tried it earlier, but now I see 0.88. Ah well. BTW... Why are the db files packaged separately? I would think it would cause confusion if both freshclam and yum are updating the db files. > I should point out that dag's pkgs at rpmforge.net are packages > slightly differently from the ones at centos.karan.org - so whichever > repo you decide to use, stick with that one for clamav ( ref: yum's > includepkg etc for that .repo file ) Interesting. I had not looked at your repo. Your repo does have at least one extra RPM that I was looking for (perl-Mail-SPF-Query), but yum says it's missing a dependency. Error: Missing Dependency: perl(Net::CIDR::Lite) >= 0.15 is needed by package perl-Mail-SPF-Query Error: Missing Dependency: perl(Net::CIDR::Lite) is needed by package perl-Mail-SPF-Query This doesn't seem to be in any of the repositories. I found perl-Net-CIDR, but that doesn't satisfy the dependency. -- Bowie
