ext4?
by James Bensley 09 Aug '10

09 Aug '10

Listee's... I have a 5.5 box and I have formatted a partition as ext4 however I can't mount it, the mount command is telling me its an unknown file system type. fsck tells me the partition is a clean ext4 partition but I can't mount it. Some reasearch has lead me to believe the problem is that ext4 isn't enabled in the kernel by default in 5.5 (this was originally a 5.2 box that has been upgraded over time, its now on 2.6.18). I'm struggling to find some idiots steps to either get the kernel rebuilt or use the CentOSPlus repo's to get the ext4 module for the kernel etc....Can anyone point me at an idiots guide to make this work? -- Regards, James. http://www.jamesbensley.co.cc/ There are 10 kinds of people in the world; Those who understand Vigesimal, and J others...?

Encrypted remote backup?
by Michael A. Peters 08 Aug '10

08 Aug '10

Can anyone recommend a commercial off site remote backup service with a client (preferably FOSS) for CentOS 5, preferably that allows encryption of the data being backed up? Small scale, I'm primarily looking to just back up my mail folder on my server. I've been backing it up to local hd via rsync but that drive just died, I'd prefer to have it backed up to somewhere more stable than a home box and automated via cron (cli tools a must), but encryption is important, people are snoopy and I'm paranoid about that sort of stuff.

Remote nautilus, X display forwarding problem
by Dotan Cohen 07 Aug '10

07 Aug '10

I need to open a Nautilus window on a headless server, but no matter what I try it complains about the display: ✈dcl:~$ xhost + localhost localhost being added to access control list ✈dcl:~$ ssh -X user(a)ip.address [user@CentOS-55-32-minimal ~]$ export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 [user@CentOS-55-32-minimal ~]$ nautilus --display=0:0 cannot open display: 0:0 Run 'nautilus --help' to see a full list of available command line options. [user@CentOS-55-32-minimal ~]$ Googling the situation it looks like I've covered all the steps: enabling remote X, X forwarding, display export and telling Nautilus which display to use. Any other ideas? Thanks! -- Dotan Cohen http://gibberish.co.il http://what-is-what.com

yum-fastestmirror inconsistent exclude behavior
by Matt Arnilo S. Baluyos (Mailing Lists) 06 Aug '10

06 Aug '10

Hi guys, I'm trying to figure out something wherein excluded repositories for the yum-fastestmirror plugin are still being used by the system. To illustrate: [root@sales ~]# cat /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/fastestmirror.conf [main] enabled=1 verbose=0 socket_timeout=3 hostfilepath=/var/cache/yum/timedhosts.txt maxhostfileage=10 maxthreads=15 #exclude=.gov, facebook exclude=maulvi, .gov.ph, .vn (Note the name of mirrors that I am trying to exclude) However, when I run yum, this is what I get: [root@sales ~]# yum update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Excluding mirror: mirror.pscigrid.gov.ph Excluding mirror: mirror.viethosting.vn * addons: centos.maulvi.net Excluding mirror: mirror.pscigrid.gov.ph Excluding mirror: mirror.viethosting.vn * base: centos.maulvi.net Excluding mirror: mirror.pscigrid.gov.ph Excluding mirror: mirror.viethosting.vn * extras: centos.maulvi.net * rpmforge: fr2.rpmfind.net Excluding mirror: centos.maulvi.net * updates: mirror.viethosting.vn Setting up Update Process No Packages marked for Update [root@sales ~]# If you notice, centos.maulvi.net is still being used despite me putting it on the exclude list of the fastestmirror config. Also, the behavior does not seem to be consistent as on another repo (updates), the previously excluded mirror.viethosting.vn is used. Any pointers on what I could be doing wrong? or is this a bug? Thanks! Regards, Matt -- Stand before it and there is no beginning. Follow it and there is no end. Stay with the ancient Tao, Move with the present.
