Has anyone heard any rumblings as to when U4 is coming out?

kernel update with yum - no grub entry
by Paul Pianta 13 Dec '04

13 Dec '04

Hi people I am new to this list - actually I am one of (probably) a few who are jumping ship from WBEL. I feel like a bit of a scab jumping over at this time - but we all make mistakes eh? I have installed CentOS and ran 'yum update' and installed everything it prompted me for. After a reboot, I realised I had booted into the same original kernel-2.4.21-20.EL.c0smp and not the updated one - kernel-2.4.21-20.0.1.ELsmp. Upon further inspection I found that there was no entry made in grub.conf for the new kernel, and there is no initrd in /boot for this new kernel. Could someone please explain what has happened and whether it is normal behaviour or not? I am used to updating a kernel with yum and having all of the grub stuff done automatically for me :/ Now that I might have to do it manually myself I am getting all sooky and so came to this list to cry for help (and coz I'm a lazy bastard!). So ... -- pAntZ Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you do criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes!

Some questions regarding CEntos
by Max Beerli 13 Dec '04

13 Dec '04

Hello list. I am assigned the task to select a RHEL3 clone operating system for a couple of servers. So far I have found Whitehat Linux, Tao, Scientific Linux and Centos. I like the community developed aspect advantage of Centos compared to the other distros where one or couple people maintain the operating system. - Is this a long term goal project? How does it sustain itself? How much extra money is usually required on a monthly basis for operations? I noticed that developers had to pay for hosting costs when new iso images were released. Wouldn't using bittorrent cut down on downloading costs? - How does Centos compare to other RHEL clones? Are there enough developers to quickly update packages when Redhat makes security announcements? - Do Centos developers have access to RHEL3 machines or is everything done on Centos computers? For that matter do developers compile the Redhat released SRPMS + updates on RHEL computers or are binary RPM packages built on Centos operating system itself? I am asking because it would seem to me that using a full Redhat provided distro to build packages might introduce less erorrs? - What is changed from official RHEL releases besides the copyrighted logos for each Centos release? I am not talking about packages in the addons directories. Just the base os release packages. Many thank yous.Max. _________________________________________________________________ Take advantage of powerful junk e-mail filters built on patented Microsoft® SmartScreen Technology. http://join.msn.com/?pgmarket=en-ca&page=byoa/prem&xAPID=1994&DI=1034&SU=ht… Start enjoying all the benefits of MSN® Premium right now and get the first two months FREE*.

VMWare problems on CentOS 3.3 x86-64
by Rob Beard 10 Dec '04

10 Dec '04

Hi folks, I'm hoping someone can help with a problem I'm having getting VMWare to work on CentOS 3.3 (x86-64). I recently downloaded VMWare workstation 4.5 (not sure of exact version number but its the latest version as of yesterday). I was hoping to run CentOS as my main OS and then use VMWare to still support Windows XP machines and run the couple of applications which refuse to work properly under Wine. I installed the RPM okay, ran the configuration script fro VMWare, however when it comes to running VMware I get a message about a missing libaray - "ld- linux.so.2". I did a search on the hard disk and couldn't find it. I also couldn't find an RPM package (either source or binary) to install. Everything else on CentOS seems to be going okay, its really fast compared to Suse 9.1 which I was running previously (not sure if thats because I'm running a 64-bit OS or that CentOS doesn't have as much running at once?). Could anyone suggest how I can get this library? Regards, Rob

Kernel Panic on New Kernel Package
by Joshua Strzalko 10 Dec '04

10 Dec '04

Hey all, I have a P4 2.4 GHz CPU (hyper threading) and have been using the 2.4.21-20.EL.c0smp kernel and it works perfectly. I installed the new kernel-smp (2.4.21-20.0.1.EL) kernel and it installed flawlessly. However, every time I boot I get a kernel panic and I must reboot to the older kernel. The error I am getting is: (it seems to be failing on jbd.o and ext3.o) Kernel requires old insmod, but couldn't run /bin/insmod.old No such file or directory Then it can't find the initrd and Panics. I am running a single partition on my software RAID1, the file system is ext3.

Firewire drive support in CentOS 3.3?

I just recently downloaded and installed the CentOS 3.3 release, and I'm having a bit of a problem... It appears that no support for firewire drives has been included. I am unable to find the ohci1394 or sbp2 modules anywhere. Are there other packages which must be installed from the distribution to get firewire devices to be recognized? Thanks. --Steve

*very* raw script for a new email server
by Benjamin J. Weiss 09 Dec '04

09 Dec '04

All, I'm putting up a new email server, but I can't afford downtime when I switch servers. So, I've been writing a script that will take a CentOS install and turn it into a secure email server with Spam Assassin, Amavis-new, ClamAV and external relay using SASL authentication. The script is still *very* raw, and I'm relatively new to bash script writing. I still have some areas of work to do: - I need to incorporate the "alternatives" command to switch from sendmail to postfix, instead of using the redhat-switch-mail and changing it via gui. - I need to figure out how to automate the certificate generation. Right now I still have to type in a password at the prompt, as well as hit <enter> to accept the defaults - Some of my sed commands are kludgy. I'm still learning the ins and outs of sed - I have *no* idea whether or not Vipul's Razor is working or not. - I need to fix the yum "extras" section. - I need to improve the iptables handling. Anyway, if you guys'd like to take a look and make comments, I'm open to suggestions and whatnot. It's at: http://www.benjamin.weiss.name/mail-server.sh Thanks! Ben

Re: [Centos] confession

Beau, Most everything you could need to know is in the man pages for yum. If you have specific questions not answered by the man pages, please feel free to ask me for my experiences, Seth (who wrote the thing so should be able to answer *anything* about it), or the list. I'm actually a Debian developer myself, but we're using CentOS at work, and I find yum quite comfortable (and a good deal less complex than apt for setting up and maintaining local repositories). I've recently implemented the use of the yumgroups.xml file to define groups of packages for installation on different classes of machines. It works very well (provided you make sure that all the important files are actually readable!).

Apache
by Joe Polk 08 Dec '04

Okay, I'm curious. I just installed CentOS 3.3 and did an update with YUM. I want to run Apache so I first checked to see if it's installed with rpm -q apache. Nada. Yet, in /etc/rc.d/rc3.d I see K15httpd. So I moved that to S15httpd and started it up. It's up. Goto the default page and it's running. So....if it's not showing up in rpm queries, how is/was it installed? -- <<JAV>>

GFS 6.0.2-12
by John Newbigin 07 Dec '04

07 Dec '04

GFS 6.0.2-12 is now available for CentOS-3. This version has some small fixes is but is mostly just to support the new CentOS-3 kernel. The files are available from my site here: http://bender.it.swin.edu.au/centos-3/RHGFS/ Tips for updating: Because the dependencies are a bit screwed (thanks to RH), it is probably easiest to do rpm -U http://bender.it.swin.edu.au/centos-3/RHGFS/GFS-6.0.2-12.c3.1.i386.rpm --nodeps before updating the rest. If you want to use yum, chuck this into your yum.conf for now: [gfs] name=CentOS-3 GFS baseurl=http://bender.it.swin.edu.au/centos-3/RHGFS/ gpgcheck=0 Watch out for /etc/sysconfig/gfs being replaced by the new GFS package. Your old version should be renamed to .rpmorig John. -- John Newbigin Computer Systems Officer Faculty of Information and Communication Technologies Swinburne University of Technology Melbourne, Australia http://www.it.swin.edu.au/staff/jnewbigin

The spec file is still changed to remove reference to Red Hat but the release level is left unchanged. This is just one more little step towards our aim of full compatibility ... To update to this new kernel version run yum update (assuming you havent modified the yum configuration to not update kernels) Then you will need to reboot the machine to use the new kernel. Lance

I get this error when I update with Yum. It seems to be with CUPs. I also got this installing MySQL-Server. Should I point to another repo? Or even worry? :) -- <<JAV>>

good work
by Ryan Lane 05 Dec '04

05 Dec '04

Hey all, Just wanted to say good job the the CentOS team and community! I am very impressed with the open communication, fast updates (errata, etc), and the supportive nature of the CentOS community. I recently moved my boxes over from Whitebox Ent. Linux (for various reasons) to CentOS, and it was really worth it. I'm glad to be here. =] Keep up the good work, it's appreciated. -Ryan

Local mirrors and ISP transfer bills
by Ed Clarke 04 Dec '04

04 Dec '04

As a matter of policy and because I'm at the end of a DS/1 that needs to feed my customers needs, I've set up a local subset mirror of Centos 3.3. It's a subset because I don't copy any of the x86_64 directories ( no machines that use them ) but it's also a superset because I've added an additional "local" directory structure that contains things that I need - amavis, clamav etc. I can do "yum install amavisd-new" from any of my servers and have yum install or update the packages that are needed. The advantage for everyone in doing this is that I don't have to use up my DS/1 bandwidth for installs or updates of multiple machines and the mirrors don't get hit with a dozen requests for the same file from one location. (I was quite annoyed when the updated yum package wanked up my custom yum.conf) An additional benefit to me is that updates to my real customer servers go at a hundred megabit rate rather than the time it'd take to suck down a new kernel or openoffice through a DS/1. I'd like to recommend that everyone with some kind of server farm do this. The local mirror doesn't have to be wonderful - mine is a 200mhz PPro machine built out of junked parts - all it has to do is serve FTP. You'll save money in the long run and reduce the cost to the donated mirrors. Someone pays for the bandwidth, one way or the other.

And another....Webmin
by Joe Polk 04 Dec '04

04 Dec '04

Is anyone using Webmin with CentOS? I've always found it works very well with RHat Linux. I've not used RHEL so I'm not sure. I know on my SuSE server it doesn't seem to work well and suspect there are some location problems. -- <<JAV>>

Re: [Centos] need help with wu-ftpd
by Rick Graves 03 Dec '04

03 Dec '04

Frenando, I had no problems with the vsftp instructions on the RedHat site, starting here: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-3-Manual/ref-guide/s1-ft… The section on ftp starts here: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-3-Manual/ref-guide/ch-ft… There was one essential point that I did not get from the manual (I had to find it the hard way): any directory in your ftp server that you want to be publicly accessible needs to be "executable" by everyone ("o" for "others") -- one enters a directory by "executing" it. I recommend vsftp because 1) I assume RedHat had good reasons for choosing it, and 2) you have RedHat supporting it.
