Poprelayd parser released for Dovecot on RHEL 4
by dan1 20 Aug '05

20 Aug '05

Hi all. For those of you who are interested by using Poprelayd, I just made a fix today for using Dovecot and sendmail with poprelayd. Poprelayd allows you to log the IP addresses of people logging in through POP and allowing them to send e-mails using your smtp server (allowing relaying) for 15 minutes. It is very handy. You can download the parser here: http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=21494 It is just a little info that might be useful for some people. Kind regards, Daniel

configuring a program vs installing rpms (giftui)
by Dave Gutteridge 20 Aug '05

20 Aug '05

I decided to try the program giFT, and went to their web site to see what to do. It wasn't clear at first that any RPMs would be available, so I tried installing it using configure, make, and make install. It was only after trying to find a GUI interface, and I decided on giFTui, that I discovered that RPMs were available. So I downloaded and isntalled them, and then found an incon in my Applications menu. Unfortunately, clicking on the menu to start giFTui doesn't start the program. I get a little notice in the bottom of the screen saying that giFTui is starting. And then it goes away and the program hasn't started. Is it just that giFT, or giFTui, is unstable, or did I mess things up with my previous attempts to manually install the program? And is it possible for me to tell which is the problem? Dave

Switching HTTPD ports
by Todd Cary 19 Aug '05

19 Aug '05

I need to run Apache on a port other than 80, 81 or 8080. My other servers are using 80 and 81 (RH 9: 80; Windows Apache: 81). If I set the port in httpd.conf to anything other than 80, I get an error that a socket cannot be created for the port. No doubt it has something to do with security (did not have that problem with Win Apache, but Windows is Windows). Any suggestions on where I should look?

Sound Events in Gnome
by BRUCE STANLEY 19 Aug '05

19 Aug '05

In Centos 4.1: The sound events in Gnome see to sort of work. The start up (login) wave file however never plays. Various event sounds once logged in do seem to work. The logout wave file barely gets a few notes off before the final exit back to the login screen occurs. What could be causing the startup/logout sounds from not working correctly? Is there a work around for this?

Feeling a little guilty...
by Todd Cary 19 Aug '05

19 Aug '05

This is the first time I have tried Centros and I must say that I am a very happy camper. But maybe my needs/goals are simple: I need HTTP and FTP servers that support Apache, PHP and Interbase (yes, that "funny" DB that runs and runs). RH 9 was like that and so was FC 3, BUT FC 4 was something else...could not even get it to install (like others). And this forum has been VERY helpful for me. But I do feel a litfle guilt (sure it will diminish in time) because of all of the hours RH put into making RHEL 4 work smoothly. Of course the guys and gals on this forum are my support...not RH and so far nobdy has sent me a bill :-) ! Thanks to all as I go about installing Firebird (Interbase) and making an interbase.so file. Todd P.S. And thanks for putting up with my questions.

Choosing to put CentOS in terms of itself ...
by Bryan J. Smith 18 Aug '05

18 Aug '05

I've been reading back through the archives, really detailed, especially a select few people. And I promise, this is the last time I'm going to say this. I think CentOS stands great on itself, and you don't need to define many things is dislike of other distro. I know many of us (at least us Americans) like to put things in terms of "versus" as much as we can. And I am too verbose, too "I see good in everything" and support so many different flavors that there's always something to dislike about what I say. The sad this is that whenever someone comes in, and I try to explain where Fedora Core fits in, other people come back in and assert things on Fedora Core. I have shown how Fedora Core is built, just like Red Hat Linux before it. I have painstakenly _not_ put things in terms of "black'n white," but very detailed, very verbose statements. I don't do this because I'm defending any distro, but so people know what issues they will run into -- because it's not about choice of brand names (we already had that in the Windows world) -- but choice of the best technology how we can get it. It might be "animal farmish" but we're all standing on the shoulders of others, and I don't dare say who's better than another. In fact, because of my neutrality and wiliness to see things from different perspectives. IN A NUTSHELL ... If you re-read through my posts, all I'm doing is stating _positives_ of solutions. I'm giving _options_ for people and letting _them_ choose. Many people can see that, and they don't mind that. I think those people who remind me of this. But there are people who regularly see any positive statement I make as a negative to their agendas, for whatever reasons. There continues to be a revisionist history that people want to infer about one company, and my only mistake is to remind people of what I've said time and time again. And no, I'm not being "black'n white" -- I'm being positive from _all_ points. I'm not the one taking things so negatively, but showing the vantage points of the approach and technology, because they _do_ overlap. One thing you will never see me do is take something and not understand why. I strive to understand why, what it affects and how that affects things. Again, I have explained many things, Fedora Core, enough times now that I know the regulars are sick. But understand I am _not_ the only one in these threads, and some people seem to wait to point _until_ they come up -- and not bother to help people with other questions. They can't complain about me without being hypocrites in return. Now I experimented with only helping people off-list at the end of last week and over the weekend. I think I'll go back to that for the sanity of everyone on the list. But really, I hope people do go back and read what I've posted -- and the fact that I'm _always_ naming _positives_ of solutions, and _giving_choice_. I don't do this because I think I'm "better," I do it because I believe it's important to understand not only why, but how that affects everything else. -- Bryan J.

RE: [CentOS] using various IDE or SCSI hard drive interfaceswithCentOS Linux questions

First, most SCSI or SATA based RAID controllers put some, if not all. the config info for the array on one or all of the drives. At boot they load this info so they know how the array is set up. Each different MFG uses a different table type to do this :( . With this said, if your first RAID 5 controller is made by (pick one) LSI Logic and you try to put these drives into a system with a (pick any other one) adaptec controller you will have NO LUCK. Second, The only way your drive migration is going to be seamless (really just move the drives and boot) is if: 1) RAID controllers are the same and running the same level of firmware. different levels of firmware may store different config parameters in a different order - but might migrate ?? 2) Same motherboard and chipset with same BIOS revision. 3) BIOS is set up identically so that the RAID array is the same device and in the same position in the boot order. Swap is hard coded into fstab and if the array is a different logical drive the O/S may not be able to mount swap This is not a Centos limitation, it's an operating system / BIOS / boot sequence function.

using various IDE or SCSI hard drive interfaces with CentOS Linux questions
by Robert Hanson 18 Aug '05

18 Aug '05

greetings, it has been a long time and i do not recall all the specifics if one loads CentOS Linux on a machine with an PATA IDE or SCSI hard drive interface then i should be able to interchange that drive on virtually _ANY_ machine with an PATA IDE or SCSI respectively right?? (ignore physical connector differences on SCSI) i believe the answer(s) to be yes... now, what about the newer SATA? will it hold true there as well or are there enough minor differences in SATA creation and growth where one could run into an occasional problem? the bottom line appears to be that almost _ALL_ relevant hardware drivers from the past and the present are included in the distribution correct? can anyone comment on any major recent "gotchas" or other relevant situations they experienced in moving drives from machine to machine or ??? tia and regards, - rh -- Robert Hanson Abba Communications http://www.abbacomm.net

Die, KDE! Die! (Sticking with Gnome and Yum Conflicts)
by Dave Gutteridge 18 Aug '05

18 Aug '05

Okay, I experimented with both KDE and Gnome, and decided I'd rather use Gnome. After making this decision, I wanted to remove KDE, because I like to keep my hard drive as lean as possible. I accomplished this, or so I thought, by running: # yum groupremove "KDE (K Desktop Environment)". It seemed to work. Removed a whole bunch 'o stuff.

Could someone provide the steps to create a driver disk for CentOS 4? I found some documentation describing steps to create one for CentOS 3 but I think it's slightly different since CentOS 4 uses the 2.6 kernel. Any help is appreciated.

But when I check on the server (netstat -tan or lsof -i) there is no any open 21 tcp port. Any ideas? To be honest I'm confused. Regards P.S.: of course I don't have started FTP service.

(OT) Novell Community Offer; CentOS LUG; VMWare

There was some interest in the IRC channel on the latest Novell offering to the trade. This is interesting as it contains a full non-timebombed VMWare instance, in addition to the Novell technical offerings mentioned in the E-Mail below. Novell has announced a renewal of their periodic DVD sampler program -- feel free to indulge. Additionally, there was a offer some months directly from VMWare, to sell full current license electronic delivery VMWare instances for $100 to members of qualified LUG's. At the time the admins of Centos discussed the matter briefly of setting up a LUG (in electronic, rather than physical meeting form) and registering it with VMWare. I will explore with VMWare if there this program is still available, and report back. - Russ Herrold ----- Forwarded message from Linux Community <Linux_Community(a)novell.com> ----- From: "Linux Community" <Linux_Community(a)novell.com> To: "Brent Sharp" <BSHARP(a)novell.com> Subject: Novell Customer Community Latest Offer Date: Wed, 27 Jul 2005 16:23:54 -0600 I just wanted to let you know about the latest Technical Resource DVD offering we have put together for Linux User Groups.

Firefox and Java on CentOS 4.1
by John Logsdon 17 Aug '05

I need to run a Java-enabled Firefox on my CentOS4.1-powered laptop and it *was* running fine. Then yesterday I up2date'd the box and Firefox went from 1.0.4 to 1.0.6. And I lost Java. I can't seem to re-install it, whether from the original (1.5.0 I think it was) or the latest downloads. This is crucially important as I need to access my Dell RAC. Can anyone advise how to get Java back. At the moment, I have had to reboot my laptop into Redmond-ware :-((( TIA John John Logsdon "Try to make things as simple Quantex Research Ltd, Manchester UK as possible but not simpler" j.logsdon(a)quantex-research.com a.einstein(a)relativity.org +44(0)161 445 4951/G:+44(0)7717758675 www.quantex-research.com

Installing/Activating GUI for Server Settings
by Todd Cary 17 Aug '05

17 Aug '05

I did a minimal install and then with yum groupinstall, installed http, ftp and samba servers. However the gui server settings are not displayed for these servers. Is there a package that I need to install or do I need to change a setting(s) in a file? In reading "man yum" I did not see a way to find out what rpm's are installed with each group, or maybe I just did not understand the man pages. Can this be done?

CentOS 4.1 x86_64 compiler segfaults

Hi list! I am running CentOS 4.1 x86_64 on an Athlon64. The box was installed only yesterday. Yesterday I was still able to compil stuff, yesterday even the tiniest and simplest programs fail to compile always with internal compiler error: Segmentation fault. For example: make -C /usr/src/linux-2.6 SUBDIRS=/tmp/bristuff-0.2.0-RC8n/qozap ZAP=-I/tmp/bristuff-0.2.0-RC8n/zaptel-1.0.9 modules make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.9-11.EL-x86_64' CC [M] /tmp/bristuff-0.2.0-RC8n/qozap/qozap.o In file included from include/linux/types.h:13, from include/linux/kernel.h:13, from /tmp/bristuff-0.2.0-RC8n/qozap/qozap.c:13: include/linux/posix_types.h:41: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault The 'funny' thing is that the problem is in different modules for each program like: /usr/include/stdlib.h:757: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault include/linux/posix_types.h:41: internal compiler error: Segmentation /usr/include/gconv.h:72: internal compiler error: Any ideas as to what might be broken on the box?

redirect crond(pam_unix) syslog messages
by scott.list 16 Aug '05

16 Aug '05

Hi guys: I could only find one answer for this topic via google, and the poster wasnt' sure if he was breaking something with his "fix". I there a way to redirect the cron session messages from syslog to a different log? i.e.: Aug 15 01:03:01 tn1 crond(pam_unix)[29303]: session opened for user root by (uid=0) Aug 15 01:03:07 tn1 crond(pam_unix)[29303]: session closed for user root I tried cron.none and crond.none (and the correspondine lines to put those in their own file) in syslog.conf but neither redirected. The other guys solution was: ===== I disabled the session line in /etc/pam.d/crond this line : session required /lib/security/$ISA/pam_stack.so service=system-auth to this line : #session required /lib/security/$ISA/pam_stack.so service=system-auth ===== But I'm not real comfortable with that. Anyone know? Thans, Scott

RedHat changes to remove file system support
by Fong Vang 16 Aug '05

16 Aug '05

Anyone knows what RedHat did to remove support for other journaling file systems such as XFS, ReiserFS, etc. (considering these are supported by Fedora which is what RHEL is based on)? Would it work to simply take the Anaconda code (or subsection of it) and simply substitute that for the Anaconda code in RHEL/CentOS?
