Weird update problem
by Anne Wilson 05 Jan '10

05 Jan '10

For some time now updates on my CentOS box had skipped exiv2. Yesterday I decided to do something about it, so I removed it - together with gwenview, digikam and, IIRC, libexiv2. That sounded reasonable, so I accepted the removal, then re-installed gwenview and digikam, which, of course, pulled in the two exiv2 packages. The version number of exiv2 sounded familiar, but I assumed that it would bring in the best-match version, and continued. This morning, seeing that more updates were announced, I ran update again. To my surprise, exiv2 was skipped, as before. I'm curious as to what could be happening here. Anne -- KDE Community Working Group New to KDE Software? - get help from http://userbase.kde.org

Installing over network
by Slack-Moehrle 05 Jan '10

05 Jan '10

Hi All, I see that sparc.centos.org does not contain any ISO's so that I can install from CD. How does one install over the internet? I have never done it before. I assume use the boot.iso and make sure that I have DHCP turned on so that I get an IP automatically from my router? Any advice? -Jason

Hello all, Can anyone please help out with configuring PAM? I've checked a couple of tutorials online.. though most of them are related to Login though I want to set PAM up for SSH logins... I've set the max erroneous logins to just THREE and even after trying to login with an error pass I still can get in... also is there a way I could enable the PAM module which uses crack library to check the strength of a users password? any help with this is truly appreciated... thanks in advance

OT: piped greps with regex
by Mr. X 04 Jan '10

04 Jan '10

List, Happy NY. >From the bash command below, I'm trying to parse out the startsector value: $ sudo file mini_vusb.img mini_vusb.img: x86 boot sector, Microsoft Windows XP MBR, Serial 0x25d84; partition 1: ID=0xe, active, starthead 1, startsector 32, 390496 sectors First try was with grep/egrep but I wanted to capture 'startsector 32' as a group (). Nothing came close to working. Fail 1 Next attempt was with Perl file mini_vusb | perl -lane '$i=0 ;for (@F) {print substr($F[$i+1],0,-1) if ($_ eq "startsector"); $i++}' the above works, but it's too much fire power for the job :) Actually I came up with it in a minute or two once I remembered the special var @F. Success 1 Last effort led to this $ sudo file mini_vusb.img | grep -Po 'startsector\s+\d+'| grep -Po '\d+' 32 I like this best. Is there a way to shorten it up? -- Mark

Tiny webserver to run as root
by RedShift 03 Jan '10

03 Jan '10

Hi all Does anyone have a suggestion for some software, a tiny webserver that is able to run as root and execute CGI scripts? It should be smaller than apache and preferably even smaller than lighttpd. It doesn't need a whole lot of features, it only needs to be able to execute CGI scripts. I have tried a few: nanoweb (which is written in php as well) but has some problems with CGI scripts and when it runs in multi process mode it brings the system load up to exactly 1.00. Nullhttpd, but it's old and unmaintained. Tinyhttpd isn't up for the job as well (kept crashing at times). Thanks, Best regards, Glenn
