yum-3.2.8 for Centos 4 backport, part II.
by David Hrbáč 09 Jul '09

09 Jul '09

Hi, I have again worked on yum 3.2.8 for Centos 4 today, after a long time. The result is backported package yum-3.2.8-9.el4.hrb.2.1.5 which is the upgrade of yum-3.2.8-9.el4.hrb.2.1.3 I've been using smoothly for quite a long time. Packages are in testing repos: http://fs12.vsb.cz/hrb33/el4/hrb/testing/i386/repodata/ http://fs12.vsb.cz/hrb33/el4/hrb/testing/x86_64/repodata/ I'd like to ask for QA tests. This patched version passes all the internal yum tests (aka 'make test'). Regards, David Hrbáč

Add instantly active local user accounts *with* password using useradd -p option ?
by Niki Kovacs 09 Jul '09

09 Jul '09

Hi, I need to setup a load of user accounts on a series of machines, for testing purposes. I'm using a script to do this, but the only problem I have so far: I have to activate them all manually by doing passwd user1, passwd user2, passwd user3, etcetera. The useradd man page mentions a -p option to define a password, but I can't seem to get this to work. Here's what I'd like to be able to do: # useradd -c "Gaston Lagaffe" -p abc123 -m glagaffe And put that line in a script, so the account is *instantly* activated. I tried it, but to no avail. Looks like there's some burning loop I have to jump through first :o) No security considerations here for the moment, since it's for testing. Any idea how this works? Niki

Window Server 2003 will not run as paravirtualized?
by Neil Aggarwal 08 Jul '09

08 Jul '09

Hello: According to the Red Hat Virtualization Guide, Windows Server 2003 32-bit will only run as a fully virtualized guest on an AMD64 system. I thought I have seen a lot of discussion about running paravirtualized Windows on CentOS. Is that a bad idea? Neil -- Neil Aggarwal, (281)846-8957, www.JAMMConsulting.com Will your e-commerce site go offline if you have a DB server failure, fiber cut, flood, or other disaster? If so, ask me about our geographically redudant database system.

Hello, since today I could not update my CentOS 5.3 system with yum cause of the following error message. # yum update [...] Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package exiv2.i386 0:0.18.2-1.el5.rf set to be updated ---> Package perl-Params-Util.i386 0:1.00-1.el5.rf set to be updated ---> Package perl-Moose.noarch 0:0.86-1.el5.rf set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: perl(Class::MOP) >= 0.89 for package: perl-Moose ---> Package perl-MRO-Compat.noarch 0:0.11-1.el5.rf set to be updated ---> Package exiv2-devel.i386 0:0.18.2-1.el5.rf set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution perl-Moose-0.86-1.el5.rf.noarch from rpmforge has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: perl(Class::MOP) >= 0.89 is needed by package perl-Moose-0.86-1.el5.rf.noarch (rpmforge) Error: Missing Dependency: perl(Class::MOP) >= 0.89 is needed by package perl-Moose-0.86-1.el5.rf.noarch (rpmforge) I have asked about the missing perl(Class::MOP) >= 0.89 package on the rpmforge mailing list without getting any answer. So maybe could this be a problem of CentOS or Epel repo? Thank you very much for your help! regards Olaf

Problems with rpmforge repo?
by Phil Savoie 08 Jul '09

08 Jul '09

Hello, Tried yum update all yesterday and today and seems there is a perl dependency missing. Does anyone know if it is a problem or just a sync thing and that I should be more patient. Error is below: --> Processing Dependency: perl(Compress::Raw::Zlib) >= 2.020 for package: perl-IO-Compress --> Finished Dependency Resolution perl-IO-Compress-2.020-1.el5.rf.noarch from rpmforge has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: perl(Compress::Raw::Zlib) >= 2.020 is needed by package perl-IO-Compress-2.020-1.el5.rf.noarch (rpmforge) Error: Missing Dependency: perl(Compress::Raw::Zlib) >= 2.020 is needed by package perl-IO-Compress-2.020-1.el5.rf.noarch (rpmforge) Thanks, Phil

Flash Drive problem?
by Ron Blizzard 08 Jul '09

08 Jul '09

I've been having an odd problem lately. When I drag files from the computer to a flash drive, they appear to copy, but when I try to use the files I find that only the name was copied (file size of 0). When I copy the same files to the same flash drive, from the terminal, everything seems to work. Has anyone else experienced a problem like this? It's starting to get a little frustrating. -- RonB -- Using CentOS 5.3
