vmware 2.x
by Les Mikesell 28 Oct '09

28 Oct '09

Does anyone know if the just-released vmware server 2.0.2 was supposed to fix the glibc incompatibility with RHEL/Centos 5.4? (It didn't on the first box where I tried it...). -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com

Repodata for 5.4 updates?

I haven't paid close enough attention in the past to see if this was "normal"...for the updates to appear before the repodata. It does make sense that that would be the case, to allow things to propagate. I wasn't sure if this was normal, or an oversight. Thanks...I'll continue to be patient. :) Kevin

Rsync and full path of filenames
by Niki Kovacs 28 Oct '09

28 Oct '09

Hi, I have a bit of a tricky question about rsync. Let's say I want to backup a bunch of configuration files with rsync, in a script. What I don't want to do : a full snapshot of /etc. What I want to do : backup only those files I need, in an otherwise empty directory tree. In my script, I'd begin with a list of the files I effectively want to backup. Something like : /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf /etc/httpd/vhosts.d/*.conf /etc/exports Then I'd have some other files in /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin, which I would like to backup too. Instead of a puzzling explanation, let me just show you how I would like my resulting backup to look like, so you get the idea : etc/ `-- httpd |-- conf | `-- httpd.conf `-- vhosts.d |-- site1.conf |-- site2.conf `-- site3.conf usr/ `-- local |-- bin | |-- script1.sh | `-- script2.sh |-- sbin |-- sbinscript3.sh `-- sbinscript4.sh Now if I do something like this : rsync -av /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf destinationfolder/ I get something like : destinationfolder/httpd.conf QUESTION (at last) : is there a way rsync can somehow add the full file path, so the end result is more like : destinationfolder/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf ? Any suggestions ? Niki

Cisco MDS 9124 with Centos 5.4
by Vernard C. Martin 28 Oct '09

28 Oct '09

The Release notes indicate that fencing support for the Cisco MDS 9124 and 9134 Fabric Switches have been added as a Technology Preview. I'd love to use this but it doesn't seem to be visible as a choice when using the web interface for configuring the cluster. I'm not averse to doing it by hand but I'm not sure of the XML syntax for that device in the cluster file. Anyone got any clues?

/etc/aliases file wildcard
by Jerry Geis 28 Oct '09

28 Oct '09

I have been trying to find out if the /etc/aliases file can accept wildcards in the user name I was hoping that a line like or similiar: machine*: myaccount would take any name matching machine* and forward onto the myaccount mailbox. man aliases didnt really help me nor did I find anything else. Is there a way to pattern match in /etc/aliases with an * or something? Thanks, Jerry

Debugging system load - How to start?
by Götz Reinicke - IT Koordinator 28 Oct '09

28 Oct '09

Hi, we run an "old" mailserver system which was set up a couple of years ago. The systme dose "everything" what we need(ed). Over the last days I noticed an unnormal increase of the system load up to 10 and lots of users told me that there mailclient connections (sending and receiving) are dropped from time to time. I was planing to exchange the server respectively distribut the services in the near future anyway, but I'm interessted in what causes the load now or where the system "hangs" :-) There is a lot of work to do and the setup is not very well designed, but at the time I started the mailsystem at our place, I had only this one server and a lot of user requests ... The System: Intel Pentium D 3.20GHz, 8 GB RAM, 3Ware 4*320GB Sata II Raid Level 5, Gigabit LAN. Red Hat EL 5.4 (still 32 Bit) About 700 Users, 1GB Mailboxquota (mbox), Webmail-System Horde, an avarage of 3.200 messages per day over the last 12 Month. The Services and setup: Dovecot imap(s) & pop3(s), mailscanner, spamassassin, mysql, bind, httpd, sendmail. Because there are so many config parameters I'll summarise this a little bit. Mails are checked agains two blacklists (heise.de and Spamhaus) by sendmail, mailscanner and spamassassin use mostly the default settings. Virusscanning is done by avira AV. Logging for mailwatch to mysql is activated. What tools or logfiles may give me a clue which settings should be checked or changed?
