Does anyone know where I can get an RPM of pyDB2?
by Kevin Thorpe 12 Oct '10

12 Oct '10

Sorry to be a pain but I'd really like PyDB2 (DB2 client for python). IBM only seem to offer the source which won't compile without a copy of DB2. I only need it to extract some info from a customer site so I don't really want to have to get DB2. any ideas? thanks

Samba issue accessing shares by IP address
by Alfred von Campe 12 Oct '10

12 Oct '10

We have a strange issue with Samba shares on our CentOS 5.5 systems in that we can access the shares by name, but not by IP address. First a little background. Recently, our domain controllers were upgraded and I had to tweak the smb.conf file by changing security from DOMAIN to ADS and adding a setting for realm. My smb.conf file looks like this (names and IP addresses have been changed): [global] workgroup = OUR_DOMAIN printing = cups printcap name = cups printcap cache time = 750 cups options = raw map to guest = Bad User include = /etc/samba/dhcp.conf logon path = \\%L\profiles\.msprofile logon home = \\%L\%U\.9xprofile logon drive = P: usershare allow guests = Yes add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -c Machine -d /var/lib/nobody -s /bin/false %m$ domain logons = No domain master = No security = ADS encrypt passwords = Yes password server = server1 server2 username map = /etc/samba/smbusers usershare max shares = 100 passdb backend = smbpasswd wins support = No wins server = 1.2.3.4 name resolve order = lmhosts host wins log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m realm = COMPANY.COM [scratch] comment = Scratch area for builds inherit acls = Yes path = /scratch read only = No I also had to rejoin the CentOS systems to the domain by running "net ads join -U xxxxx" on each system. I can access the scratch share from any Windows PC in our domain without having to authenticate as long as I use the name of the CentOS system. But if I try to use the IP address of a CentOS system I get the "The network path was not found" error message. We have some systems in a lab from which we need to access the share by IP address. This worked before the recent changes, and I can't figure out which of these changes may have caused this. Any ideas? TIA for any help, Alfred

yum update error
by Timothy Murphy 12 Oct '10

For some reason all the perl man pages cause yum errors like ------------------------------------- Transaction Check Error: file /usr/share/man/man1/c2ph.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.8-32.el5_5.2.x86_64 conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.8-32.el5_5.1.i386 ------------------------------------- 1. I don't really see how the man pages can cause conflicts; 2. More importantly, how should I deal with this?

updating centOS5.3
by Ritika Garg 12 Oct '10

12 Oct '10

I have centOS5.3 installed in the system. I have never updated it but now am planning to update. While doing "yum update", is there any possibility that the update might hamper the execution of any software/application installed on the system? Is there anything particular to note before updating the system?

LDAP Mail Notice
by sync 12 Oct '10

12 Oct '10

Hi, all : I have a thought of writing the script to implement the LDAP mail notice recently. That's to say , after creating the new account and his passwd , then how to send an E-mail to notice him? By the way , I used the LDAP tool called 389 LDAP or openldap recently . Could someone give me some suggestions ? Thanks in advance.....

Scanner missing again
by Mark 12 Oct '10

12 Oct '10

A while back I posted about my new HP J3600 scan/fax/copy/print-er and how it was visible to the root but not me as an ordinary user. I had no trouble configuring it as a printer, but the scanner was invisible to xsane until I added my user id to the lp group. Now it's gone again, except that it is visible as a usb device to me as a normal user, but xsane can't seem to find it any more. Since this was working on the 2.6.18-194.11.4 kernel, I rebooted that one, but it exhibited the same behavior, so I wrote off the new (...17.1) kernel as innocent. However, I am getting an error during startup on hpssd - it complains about python-dbus being missing. I can't find that either, but there _is_ a dbus-python 0.70 installed and it wants a version > 0.80, so I hauled down 0.83, built it and installed it and that didn't seem to help. I will try that when I have a few minutes to take the system down again, but in the mean time, can anyone hazard a guess at what's wrong? $ lsusb Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 002 Device 006: ID 03f0:3112 Hewlett-Packard Bus 002 Device 004: ID 22b8:2ac2 Motorola PCS Bus 002 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 Bus 002 Device 002: ID 04f9:0033 Brother Industries, Ltd Bus 002 Device 003: ID 03f0:0205 Hewlett-Packard ScanJet 3300c It's Bus 2, Dev 6. There is nothing in any of the /var/log/* files to indicate any kind of problem for yesterday, when the problem appeared, other than my fumbled three attempts to input the password for 'sudo xsane'. What's interesting is this: $ sane-find-scanner # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer. # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter. found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0 [HP], product=0x3112 [Officejet J3600 series]) at libusb:002:005 found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0 [Hewlett-Packard], product=0x0205 [HP ScanJet 3300C]) at libusb:002:004 # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage. # Not checking for parallel port scanners. # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports # can't be detected by this program. # You may want to run this program as root to find all devices. Once you # found the scanner devices, be sure to adjust access permissions as # necessary. So, sane-find-scanner finds the scanner, but xsane does not??? (For the record, on the 11.4 kernel, sane-find-scanner could _not_ find the scanner, but that was before I installed the newer dbus-python.) This was working perfectly a few days ago. I'm not sure where else to look.... TIA, Mark

recommended way to install source rpms?
by Robert P. J. Day 11 Oct '10

11 Oct '10

yes, i've read the online docs and followed a link or two to find a simple way to do this, such as: http://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/SystemTapOnCentOS so, these days, is that the canonical way to download source rpms? now, note that i'm not arguing about whether this is a good idea. in my circumstances, i want the ability to just "yum download" source rpms so that i can have my students poke around in a source rpm and learn how to build one, nothing more. so, is that reasonable? to just manually add an extra repo file according to that link above (which appears to work perfectly well). frankly, the wiki page on downloading from source: http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/SourceInstalls seems just a touch on the hysterical side. i don't disagree that installing packages from the source rpm is probably a questionable idea. but that doesn't justify simply not explaining how to do it easily. my plan is to install yum-utils to get yumdownloader, add the repo file suggested above, then have students: $ yumdownloader --source <package> so they can examine the source of some packages. is the approach i'm suggesting reasonable? thanks. rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
