Interested in performance tuning
by Marc Peiser 23 Dec '05

23 Dec '05

Hi all, We have a few fairly powerful servers running centos, on some of the busy webservers for example, i think we've been hitting some kernel limits set by the default installation. Limits include max open files reached, max tcp incomming connections, max processors per user... I've been messing about with changing settings in the kernel but I'm pretty new to all this. So... I was wondering what kind of tunning/tweaking you guys do to your servers to make them perform better. Cheers, Marc

Install from a USB CDrom?
by Robert Moskowitz 23 Dec '05

23 Dec '05

OK, this is getting ridiculous. A relatively new HP NC4010 (1 year old). A maybe not the newest Storix USB CD/R-DVD drive. Of course the HP has no problem booting up off the CDrom. But then I get that blasted dialog of where are my install. So I go through the list and find a USB storage driver. It doesn't help. I do have a USB 2.5" drive case that I can put a drive in with the CDs on, but is it worth the effort? Will the install recognize that? Does anyone know were to point me to info on how to get the install to get things like PCMCIA and USB drivers installed initially?

Horde domxml dependency problem
by Thomas Brown 23 Dec '05

23 Dec '05

It appears that Horde requires the "domxml" PHP extension, which is apparently not a part of the standard CentOS 4.x PHP 4.x distribution. In fact, "domxml" is no longer available from the sourceforge web site as they prefer the use of the dom libraries in PHP5 instead. http://pecl.php.net/package/domxml Given these facts, how has anyone gotten this working? I would love to replace Squirrelmail with IMP if it can be made to work without lots of customization. Regards, -Tom *Notice*: Use of undefined constant PEAR_LOG_EMERG - assumed 'PEAR_LOG_EMERG' in */usr/share/horde/lib/Horde.php* on line *204* *Notice*: Undefined index: log in */usr/share/horde/lib/Horde.php* on line *49* A fatal error has occurred You need the domxml PHP extension to use the configuration tool. |[line 25 of /usr/share/horde/admin/setup/config.php]|

CUPS rpm version on centos4
by Maciej Żenczykowski 22 Dec '05

22 Dec '05

Hey! I have two Centos4.2 servers using the same yum configuration (identical files, edited on one and copied to the other), which both report no updates [besides squid which is afaict still currently borked] via "yum check-update". At the same time package versions don't match (cups is in the base/updates pair of repositories): [1]# rpm -q cups cups-libs cups-1.1.22-0.rc1.9.8 cups-libs-1.1.22-0.rc1.9.8 [2]# rpm -q cups cups-libs cups-1.1.22-0.rc1.9.9 cups-libs-1.1.22-0.rc1.9.9 Any ideas? Cheers, MaZe.

Install Successes!
by Robert Moskowitz 22 Dec '05

22 Dec '05

The CentOS drive for the HP NC4010 is built. I just needed to use external instead of USB power for my USB CDrom. Go figure... I did this in my hotel room, where they only have wireless. I went down to the 'business center' and used an ethernet drop, but I don't think the registration worked. I didn't know that even for the ehternet drops you have to do that portal thing with your browser. How do I determine if the registration was completed. Now I am making headway, finally, on the Toshiba Portege 3490. I was having TERRIBLE timing problems with the multiport extender. Then I decided to THINK, and went into BIOS, changed the PCMCIA to 16 bit cardbus, and the install is proceeding well. I have my 3COM 574 LAN card in so that the install will do the network installs. And the desk gave me a WET11 so I will have an ethernet drop in the room, but I have to do the browser thing before I can register.... Next I have to get the wireless working on both the HP and Toshiba. The HP has an internal Intel wireless card. For the Toshiba I have LOTS of wireless PCMCIA cards from all sorts of vendors. So getting a bit ahead of myself: How do I proceed with the wireless networking install. Also WPA support with both 802.1X and PSK. Illegitimi non Carborundum

specifying mount options in /etc/auto.master
by Aleksandar Milivojevic 22 Dec '05

22 Dec '05

I have this NFS client that used to be on Red Hat 7.3. For mounting user home directories I used this line in /etc/auto.master file: /home yp:auto.home rw,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 Moved the box to CentOS 4... The format of the file changed, so I attempted something like this: /home -rw,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 yp:auto.home No habla. Doesn't work. The rsize and wsize options seems to be ignored (I type "mount", and they are not there). Yup, I reloaded configuration after chaning the file, and made sure to unmount the file system in question. All examples in documentation have mount options in the map itself, not in the auto.master file. The order for automount in nsswitch.conf is "files nis". Well, I need those options in local auto.master, since I don't want to change it in NIS map for all clients (it's a mixed OS environment, and I don't want to risk to break anything by introducing possibly OS-dependant changes in NIS map). Any way to get old behaviour back? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.

(?) Dangling ssh-agent processes with GNOME
by Jay Leafey 22 Dec '05

22 Dec '05

I recently noticed a LOT of ssh-agent processes running on my system (CentOS 4.2). It seems that the ssh-agent gets started before the session manager (in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc-common) which is great. The only problem is that the agent process does not die when the session shuts down. I run ssh-add in my session startup to get my key loaded into ssh-agent, so that might be part of the issue. I just haven't been able to figure out where to kill the beast. Is there somewhere I can run an arbitrary program when the session manager runs down? A medium-intensity search of the docs and sourcecode didn't turn up anything applicable. Plenty of ways to run programs at session START, but not at the end. Anybody got any ideas? -- Jay Leafey - Memphis, TN jay.leafey(a)mindless.com

It seems that when the files are rotated, the user/group is root root and the permissions are rw for root only. more info hereunder: The strange thing is that sometimes it works for one file... /var/log/cisco_acl.log /var/log/cisco_debug.log { rotate 1 notifempty #daily size 1k create 0640 root noc postrotate /bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog-ng.pid 2> /dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true endscript } [root@syslog-b11 log]# ls -l cisco* -rw-r----- 1 root noc 2816 Dec 19 11:06 cisco_acl.log -rw-r----- 1 root noc 40304 Dec 19 11:07 cisco_debug.log [root@syslog-b11 log]# logrotate -v /etc/logrotate.conf rotating pattern: /var/log/cisco_acl.log /var/log/cisco_debug.log 1024 bytes (1 rotations) empty log files are not rotated, old logs are removed considering log /var/log/cisco_acl.log log needs rotating considering log /var/log/cisco_debug.log log needs rotating rotating log /var/log/cisco_acl.log, log->rotateCount is 1 renaming /var/log/cisco_acl.log.1 to /var/log/cisco_acl.log.2 (rotatecount 1, logstart 1, i 1), renaming /var/log/cisco_acl.log.0 to /var/log/cisco_acl.log.1 (rotatecount 1, logstart 1, i 0), renaming /var/log/cisco_acl.log to /var/log/cisco_acl.log.1 creating new log mode = 0640 uid = 0 gid = 900 running postrotate script running script with arg /var/log/cisco_acl.log: " /bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog-ng.pid 2> /dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true " removing old log /var/log/cisco_acl.log.2 rotating log /var/log/cisco_debug.log, log->rotateCount is 1 renaming /var/log/cisco_debug.log.1 to /var/log/cisco_debug.log.2 (rotatecount 1, logstart 1, i 1), renaming /var/log/cisco_debug.log.0 to /var/log/cisco_debug.log.1 (rotatecount 1, logstart 1, i 0), renaming /var/log/cisco_debug.log to /var/log/cisco_debug.log.1 creating new log mode = 0640 uid = 0 gid = 900 running postrotate script running script with arg /var/log/cisco_debug.log: " /bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog-ng.pid 2> /dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true " removing old log /var/log/cisco_debug.log.2 [root@syslog-b11 log]# ls -l cisco* -rw-r----- 1 root noc 4305 Dec 19 11:10 cisco_acl.log -rw-r----- 1 root noc 66976 Dec 19 11:11 cisco_debug.log [root@syslog-b11 log]# logrotate -v /etc/logrotate.conf considering log /var/log/cisco_acl.log log needs rotating considering log /var/log/cisco_debug.log log needs rotating rotating log /var/log/cisco_acl.log, log->rotateCount is 1 renaming /var/log/cisco_acl.log.1 to /var/log/cisco_acl.log.2 (rotatecount 1, logstart 1, i 1), old log /var/log/cisco_acl.log.1 does not exist renaming /var/log/cisco_acl.log.0 to /var/log/cisco_acl.log.1 (rotatecount 1, logstart 1, i 0), old log /var/log/cisco_acl.log.0 does not exist log /var/log/cisco_acl.log.2 doesn't exist -- won't try to dispose of it renaming /var/log/cisco_acl.log to /var/log/cisco_acl.log.1 creating new log mode = 0640 uid = 0 gid = 900 running postrotate script rotating log /var/log/cisco_debug.log, log->rotateCount is 1 renaming /var/log/cisco_debug.log.1 to /var/log/cisco_debug.log.2 (rotatecount 1, logstart 1, i 1), old log /var/log/cisco_debug.log.1 does not exist renaming /var/log/cisco_debug.log.0 to /var/log/cisco_debug.log.1 (rotatecount 1, logstart 1, i 0), old log /var/log/cisco_debug.log.0 does not exist log /var/log/cisco_debug.log.2 doesn't exist -- won't try to dispose of it renaming /var/log/cisco_debug.log to /var/log/cisco_debug.log.1 creating new log mode = 0640 uid = 0 gid = 900 running postrotate script [root@syslog-b11 log]# ls -l cisco* -rw------- 1 root root 1066 Dec 19 11:23 cisco_acl.log -rw-r----- 1 root noc 10088 Dec 19 11:22 cisco_acl.log.1 -rw------- 1 root root 6164 Dec 19 11:23 cisco_debug.log -rw-r----- 1 root noc 137116 Dec 19 11:22 cisco_debug.log.1 -- Cheers!

nagios config gui
by Dave 20 Dec '05

20 Dec '05

I'm starting to play around with nagios, as others already know the configs are a pain lol. I looked at monarch but it needs mysql 4 and also nagmin for webmin but either I dont have all the paths setup correctly or it just doesn't work. Anyone have a config gui that works on a standard CentOS3 install?

compaq v2000 working with correct boot options and compaq r4000 still SLOWWW
by Jerry Geis 20 Dec '05

20 Dec '05

Hi, I have a v2000 compaq laptop. The realtek network and USB on this machine was not working. After adding to grub.conf "acpi=off apci=off noacpi noapic" the v2000 realtek started working and the USB worked fine... Fantastic! So I thought I would try those same options on my r4000 laptop. they had no effect.... This AMD turion 64 4000+ rating laptop is still running SLOWWW... /proc/cpuinfo has the cpu Mhz running at 2393 below is my dmesg output for the r4000. There is a line talking about "Your time source seems to be instable or some driver is hogging interupts" that seems bad to me but not sure what to do about it . Any further suggestions would be great.

The links ARE there, but they are K* links, not S* links. I should see output showing the service shutting down when I go from 4 to 3. My main point was that your description of the shutdown process does not seem to be accurate. Based on reading the 'rc' script, the runlevel switch happens first and then rc runs all scripts from the new runlevel directory. If I switch from level 4 to level 3, the system will switch the runlevel to 3 and then run the kill scripts and startup scripts from the rc3.d directory. The original problem has been solved. The script was not setting it's lock file properly, so it was being skipped when rc ran the kill scripts. Now that I've fixed that problem, I see the shutdown messages from the script as expected. -- Bowie

Install is on PCMCIA CDrom so too is LAN card
by Robert Moskowitz 20 Dec '05

20 Dec '05

How do I get the PCMCIA driver(s) to load initially? This whole string of questions on this install come from using a PCMCIA CDrom. The system boots from the CD, but then the install does not have a driver. If I have it select install method, I see a Future Domain PCMCIA SCSI driver. If I select that, I still cannot load of my CDrom, but if I select HTTP it discovers my LAN card. But when I select my LAN card, the link lights do not come up. Oh, the LAN card is a venerable 3C574 10/100. Can I press F2 then enter something like: Linux install PCMCIA ?????? Thank you for all of your help. Barrs Law of Recursive futility If you're smart enough to use one of these.... .....you can probably manage without one!

Setting up a simple NAT on CentOS 3.5
by Robert Moskowitz 20 Dec '05

20 Dec '05

Well I think this system is back on 3.5. How do I tell? Have not used it in a while... I need a NAT for some quick testing and this box was available. Only a 6gb drive, so I can't install Astaro (which I have licenses for). So is there a simple way to turn on NATing? Should I upgrade to 4.2? This box is behind a firewall, so security risks are not the issue. This time.

That's not what the rc script appears to be doing. It simply checks the current runlevel and then runs all the scripts in that directory (kill scripts first, and then start scripts). -- Bowie

I found that by looking through the 'rc' script not long after I posted. I finally determined that the script was properly creating and deleting the lock file, it was just named wrong. The lock file must be named either 'subsys' or 'subsys.init'. This one was trying to use 'subsys-init'. Changed the dash to a period and the problem went away. Thanks for the help! -- Bowie

Setting up software IDE RAID
by Kai Schaetzl 19 Dec '05

19 Dec '05

I have some old rack boxes which are going to get some bigger harddrives (IDE/ATA, not SATA) in Spring and I'm wondering if I should put two disks in them and use them as RAID 1 (software RAID). Objective being that the machine can hopefully carry on after (one) disk failure (including rebooting). I don't have any experience with software RAID. Can I do this during the normal CentOS (4) setup or can I even do this later (when there's only one disk and I add another one)? Does it make a difference performance-wise? (slight drop?) Is it reliable, so that it will fulfill on the purpose or should I better forget it? (Replacing the mainboards or adding RAID controller cards is out of the question.) I'm certainly willing to read a How-To or other documentation, but since it's completely new to me I'm not really sure where to start searching. Kai -- Kai Schätzl, Berlin, Germany

Shutdown script not being run
by Bowie Bailey 19 Dec '05

19 Dec '05

I've got an odd problem. My server will not shutdown normally because the AoE driver is not being shut down properly. While investigating the problem, I found that the aoe script is apparently not being called for shutdown. I have been able to duplicate this with a brand new test script. My test script is just a simple file that echos back the start or stop command: #!/bin/bash # # chkconfig: 45 01 99 # description: Test Start and stop script # echo "Called with $1" I installed it with 'chkconfig --add mytest'. The softlinks exist in the runlevel directories: /etc/rc.d/init.d/mytest /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K99mytest /etc/rc.d/rc1.d/K99mytest /etc/rc.d/rc2.d/K99mytest /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/K99mytest /etc/rc.d/rc4.d/S01mytest /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S01mytest /etc/rc.d/rc6.d/K99mytest When I 'telinit 4', I can see the script output in /var/log/messages: Dec 19 11:46:49 bnofdn1 mytest: Called with start Dec 19 11:46:49 bnofdn1 rc: Starting mytest: succeeded When I 'telinit 3', there is no output from this script. It is like the script is not even being called. Am I doing something stupid here? When I do 'telinit 3' from a higher runlevel, isn't it supposed to run all of the 'K*' scripts in rc3.d with a 'stop' argument? Any suggestions would be appreciated. -- Bowie

Installing CentOS via HTTP

When, after starting the install, you get a list of places for the distribution, listing things like: CDrom, NFS, FTP, HTTP, Local hard drive What is expected on the HTTP url? The ISO images? Help please, as the system I am installing on, boots off of CDrom, but then the CDrom seems to be so old (Toshiba NW24XCD), that there is no Linux driver for it in the base install. And I cannot figure out how to get it to read from the CD, but I DO have LAN access....

Dear gurus, Three DELL SC430s were purchased by my company a few months back and I've been told that when they spoke with the DELL representatives, they were informed that these servers were fully RHEL 4.0 compatible. Specs of the servers:- - Pentium 4 - 2.8 GHz - 1 GB RAM - 2x 250GB SATA HDDs I tried installing CentOS 4.0 on it but it doesn't seem to be able to detect any hard disks. Has anyone out there successfully installed CentOS 4.0 on a Dell SC430? Please help. Your guidance is greatly appreciated. TIA, Andrew

To do a HTTP install you need a mounted ISO image. What we have set up here is a yam repository to do all our updating plus installations. http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/yam/ It works great for us and cuts down on internet traffic. Our yam box syncs off a centos mirror and we pull all our updates from the local repository.

Compilation problem - CentOS 4.2 - x86_64
by kadafax 18 Dec '05

18 Dec '05

Hi list, Here it is: I have compiled with no problem courier-imap-4.0.4 on this arch (x86_64). Now I want to update my install with 4.0.6. I want to do this because the server is not yet in a production state, so if a major flaw affects courier-imap in the future, I could react more quickly. And indeed I'm encountering problems with the make process (Since I initialy build courier-imap from sources and that I dont want FAM, I'm not using the rpmbuild process). I've stricly followed the INSTALL's instructions. I believe the problem comes from the mixed libraries living on the system (x86_64 and, for compatibility purpose, i386) and I didn't find a workaround on this. I'm near to switch to dovecot if it can handle quite large amount of users (500-1000 accounts). That would be bad because I think courier-imap is well doing its job. By the way, someone tolds me that courier-imap and RHEL4 (and clones) is a bad idea, someone can confirm?

Install problems for a Toshiba NW24XCD
by Robert Moskowitz 18 Dec '05

18 Dec '05

I am trying to install Centos on my old Portege 2490CT. Actually a pretty good box, but it does not support USB booting. Only HDD, FDD (interestingly a USB device), 'CD-Rom', or LAN. The only CDroms I have is a nice USB drive and an old PCMCIA toshiba NW24XCD drive. I have not gotten this system to boot off of my USB CDrom. It will boot of the NW24XCD. So I put the CentOS disk 1 in the drive and boot. Boot seems to go OK, it asks my the language preferences but then gives me the dialog: What type of Media contains the packages to be installed? When I select CDrom I get the dialog: Unable to find may devices of the type neededfor this installation type. Would you like to manually select your driver or use a driver disk? And there is a list of a bunch of drivers. I have a hunch that my PCMCIA NW24XCD is not a standard supported drive. :( So what from the list do I select? Or where do I get a driver disk? POI: I am not a Unix skilled person. I can get by with VI and the like, but otherwises I just have not devoted the time needed... HELP?

SMB server with CentOS 4
by Ugo Bellavance 17 Dec '05

17 Dec '05

Hi, I need to set up a small server for a group of ~10 employees (all using Windows 2000/XP, used to use a windows 2000/exchange setup). I have a linux server already running CentOS 4, so I'd like to do all I can with this. I thought about using Samba for file/print sharing and OpenXchange (commercial version) to have a nice collaborative/mail/calendar/etc server. Of course, it would probably be the dhcp and internal DNS server. I started reading the Samba doc, but it is rather long. I planned on using this server as a PDC so that it is not too different from using their former windows 2000 server. I'll be managing this server, which is currently a staging server for web development (php/mysql/cvs). Anyone has a opinion on this, or better ideas? My backups will be based on utilities and mondorescue, kept on a internal (cold-swap drawer) hard-drive that I would take every week (2-drawers rotation). Any recommendations welcome, will provide more details if needed. TIA, -- Ugo -> Please don't send a copy of your reply by e-mail.

scsi tape device support
by Marc Peiser 17 Dec '05

17 Dec '05

I'm trying to get a scsi tape device (Sony SDX-D500V) working on my dell 2450 running centos 4.2. I can see the device (ch1, id2) using the dell bois raid utility, but once booted into linux I can't see any mention of it in the logs or dmesg. Do you know if the generic kernel (2.6.9-22.0.1.ELsmp) supports this tape device? Can anyone give me any pointers in getting this device working. Regards, Marc
