Yum Updates dependencies missing (rpmforge)
by Lanny Marcus 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

There are updates available, for the below multimedia packages (CentOS 5.5, 32 bit), but I'm getting missing dependency errors from yum update for these. ---> Package directfb.i386 0:1.2.10-1.el5.rf set to be updated ---> Package ffmpeg.i386 0:0.6.1-1.el5.rf set to be updated ---> Package ffmpeg-libpostproc.i386 0:0.6.1-1.el5.rf set to be updated ---> Package gstreamer-plugins-ugly.i386 0:0.10.11-2.el5.rf set to be updated ---> Package kino.i386 0:1.3.4-1.el5.rf set to be updated ---> Package libquicktime.i386 0:1.2.1-1.el5.rf set to be updated ---> Package lzo.i386 0:2.04-1.el5.rf set to be updated ---> Package mplayer.i386 0:1.0-0.44.svn20100703.el5.rf set to be updated Probably anyone wanting to update the above packages should wait a day or two and hopefully the dependencies will become available.

Any chance to get a working, current openldap srpm/rpm for centos 5.5
by Götz Reinicke - IT-Koordinator 06 Dec '10

06 Dec '10

Hello, is there anyone out there, who has a current 2.4.23 srpm or good how to compile it from src with supported db4? I tried to compile recent source files, but always finding the current (installed) db4 >4.3 fails. Than I tried to compile the LTB Project Files: http://ltb-project.org/wiki/documentation/openldap-rpm May be it is just a small step or option to be set. Would be nice to get it working :-) Thanks and best regards Götz -- Götz Reinicke IT-Koordinator Tel. +49 7141 969 420 Fax +49 7141 969 55 420 E-Mail goetz.reinicke(a)filmakademie.de Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg GmbH Akademiehof 10 71638 Ludwigsburg www.filmakademie.de Eintragung Amtsgericht Stuttgart HRB 205016 Vorsitzende des Aufsichtsrats: Prof. Dr. Claudia Hübner Geschäftsführer: Prof. Thomas Schadt

XFS or EXT3 ?
by Keith Roberts 05 Dec '10

05 Dec '10

There was a similar thread about which is the best FS for Centos. I'm using ext3, and wondered if XFS would be more 'data safe' than ext3. I had a 100GiB ext3 partition, and it took up 1.75GiB for FS administration purposes. I reformatted it to XFS, and it only used 50.8MB! I now have a fresh new drive to install my root Centos system onto, and wondered about creating the partitions as XFS? What about the XFS admin tools - do these get installed when you format a partition as XFS from anaconda, or are they a seperate rpm package, installed later? Kind Regards, Keith Roberts -- In theory, theory and practice are the same; in practice they are not. This email was sent from my laptop with Centos 5.5

Fiddling with software RAID1 : continue working with one of two disks failing?
by Niki Kovacs 04 Dec '10

04 Dec '10

Hi, I'm currently experimenting with software RAID1 on a spare PC with two 40 GB hard disks. Normally, on a desktop PC with only one hard disk, I have a very simple partitioning scheme like this : /dev/hda1 80 MB /boot ext2 /dev/hda2 1 GB swap /dev/hda3 39 GB / ext3 Here's what I'd like to do. Partition a second hard disk (say, /dev/hdb) with three partitions. Setup RAID1 like this : /dev/md0 80 MB /boot ext2 /dev/md1 1 GB swap /dev/md2 39 GB / ext3 I somehow managed to get this far. Here's what I have : [root@raymonde ~]# fdisk -l /dev/hda Disk /dev/hda: 41.1 GB, 41110142976 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4998 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 11 88326 fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/hda2 12 134 987997+ fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/hda3 135 4998 39070080 fd Linux raid autodetect [root@raymonde ~]# fdisk -l /dev/hdb Disk /dev/hdb: 41.1 GB, 41110142976 bytes 16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 79656 cylinders Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdb1 * 1 156 78592+ fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/hdb2 157 2095 977256 fd Linux raid autodetect /dev/hdb3 2096 79656 39090744 fd Linux raid autodetect During install, my /dev/md1 and /dev/md2 got somehow mixed up, which doesn't really matter : [root@raymonde ~]# cat /etc/fstab /dev/md1 / ext3 defaults 1 1 /dev/md0 /boot ext2 defaults 1 2 tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 sysfs /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/md2 swap swap defaults 0 0 I wasn't sure where to install GRUB, so I chose /dev/md0. I was wondering if this setup theoretically enabled me to continue working with one disk failure. So I tried unplugging the power cord of one of my hard disks... which resulted in a "GRUB Disk Error" on boot. Question : is there a way to still run the system with either of the two disks "damaged" (in this case : unplugged)? And if so, how would I have to go about it in my setup? Cheers from the freezing South of France, Niki

yum-complete-transaction
by Johan Scheepers 04 Dec '10

04 Dec '10

Good day, Some yum instructions I do not know. Kindly some pointers please. There are unfinished transactions remaining. You might consider running yum-complete-transaction first to finish them. The program yum-complete-transaction is found in the yum-utils package. This is where I am lost Thanks Johan

Fwd: Linux, Windows AD domain, and IDs
by Scott Ehrlich 04 Dec '10

04 Dec '10

You have a CentOS (for example) workstation that is a member of a Windows AD domain courtesy of modified smb.conf and krb5.conf files. There are, thus, no local user accounts on the linux workstation. There is a network application that benefits most (maybe even requires) the user's numerical portion of their employee ID as their linux workstation id. Thus, if I log in, my domain username might be scott12. My employee ID might be se123456. If I log into the linux workstation, I'm going to log in as scott12 along with providing my password. I type id at the shell, and am given something like scott12 (10001) for the user. How can I manage to make the id [also] equal to 123456 for user scott12 without breaking anything? Thanks for any leads. Scott

how to separate individual logs?
by hadi motamedi 04 Dec '10

04 Dec '10

Dear All I have captured a file in my centos showing logs captured from many modules concurrently. Please find attached a sample of the file. As you see, there are logs from individual modules that have been captured concurrently. For example, there are logs from IPTR,SNMP,HLR,TCAP,XAPP,and SCCP modules but they are coming concurrently.Each log has the header name of its accompanied module in the beginning. I need to have the log of each modules separately. Can you please show me the power of centos on how to separate individual module's logs from the whole? Thank you

1 Gbit/s Ethernet NIC under CentOS
by Boris Epstein 04 Dec '10

04 Dec '10

Hello listmates, As some of you may know we have been having a really bad problem with Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8169 cards. See here for details: http://forum.nginx.org/read.php?24,140124,140224 So now my question is, what PCI 1 Gbit/s Ethernet adapters should I use under CentOS? If you have had a consistent positive experience with any particular chipset/brand please speak up. Thanks. Boris.
