non-threaded perl no longer in .spec file
by Kurt Hansen 02 Dec '09

02 Dec '09

Hello, I'm setting up a new server on 5.4 and noticed this in the perl.spec file: * Mon Jul 21 2008 Stepan Kasal - 4:5.8.8-14.el5 - add two patches, which... - Resolves: #435505, #431041 - remove %%define threading, the non-threading variant is not supported, Related: 435376 That comment wasn't there when I set up a server on 5.2 a few months back and the %define threading option was still in the perl.spec file, making it easy for me to create my own non-threaded perl. I want a non-threaded perl because the mod_perl folks say that the performance is better on a non-threaded perl. I believe I can compare the spec files and figure out where to edit the new spec file, but I wondered about that "not supported" comment. Is there something "bad" about the non-threading variant? Thanks! Take care, Kurt Hansen khansen(a)charityweb.net

Inquiry:How to compare two files but not in line-by-line basis?
by hadi motamedi 02 Dec '09

02 Dec '09

Dear All Can you please do me favor and let me know how can I compare two files but not in line-by-line basis on my CentOS server ? I mean say row#1 in file1 has the same data as say row#5 in file2 , but the comm compares them in line-by-line basis that is not intended . It seems that the diff cannot do the job as well . Thank you in advance

ldapsearch -f file doesn't work
by Sergio Belkin 02 Dec '09

02 Dec '09

Hi, Firstly, system info: Linux mysystem 2.6.18-53.1.4.el5 #1 SMP Fri Nov 30 00:45:55 EST 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux I am running ldap on Centos with packages openldap-2.3.27-8.el5_2.4 y openldap-2.3.27-8.el5_2.4 I'd want to perform a query that return one attribute. So I did something as follows: ldapsearch -W -f qbis.ldif -D "cn=Manager,dc=palermo,dc=edu" -b "ou=people,dc=mydomain,dc=edu" -x legajo (Where legajo is the filter) There is no problem with filter but wih the file "qbis.ldif" which contains: dn: uid=jdoe,ou=people,dc=mydomain,dc=edu Of course I could perform that query with no need of one file, but I need to get "legajo" from around 800 users so it would be nice to be able to use "-f file". I cannot do something like a "loop for" because it would ask me every time the Manager password. Am I doing something wrong or is a ldap bug? Thanks in advance! -- -- Open Kairos http://www.openkairos.com Watch More TV http://sebelk.blogspot.com Sergio Belkin -

how to install ash on CentOS 5.4?
by Rudi Ahlers 02 Dec '09

02 Dec '09

Hi, Does anyone know if it's possible to install ash on CentOS 5.4, or just CentOS 5, for that matter? I'm trying to install OpenQRM which requires ash, but ash doesn't exist in the repositories. rpmfind.net als only has an older version listed, for CentOS 4 http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=ash&submit=Search+...&sy… dag wier's repository also doesn't have it. And google didn't yield any results for CentOS 5.4. -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Hosting Web: http://www.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532

Re: [CentOS] Inquiry:How to compare two files but not in line-by-line basis?
by hadi motamedi 02 Dec '09

Thank you very much for your reply . This code actually solved my problem and returned exact matches between the two files (irrespective of their location in the files) . As I understood , it will list each data showing to which file it belongs (or it is common to both files) . It is really what I wanted .

best practises for avoiding to write passwords in shell scripts (example sqlplus from Oracle)
by Sven Aluoor 01 Dec '09

01 Dec '09

Hi folks I have here a CentOS box where i need to setup cronjob (with session to remote Oracle instance). On the remote DB i have no access, expect limited user. How to avoid putting passwords in shell scripts? The solution doesn't need to be perfect, only better than plain text passwords in scripts. Mostly remote host only support password authentication (no certificates and so on). cheers Sven

Hi all, I'm running Centos 5.4 I have a pile of emails in my root users /var/spool/mail/root file I need to send this all to another address (preferrably external but local would possibly do) I have searched a lot but can't find any way to do this. I have set it so future emails get forwarded to my external address but I also need to shift the existing emails. Thanks Kate

I'm converting Ubuntu startup scripts to work on CentOS (5.3), and I'm having trouble finding out how to start a daemon in a certain directory? For Ubuntu, start-stop-daemon has the option -d to set the working directory. TIA /Rob

Back on Oct 31st Karanbir said he would take care of the missing centos-release srpm. It still hasn't shown up on any of the mirrors. Is this ever going to be fixed? -Shad
