vsFTPd and hidden files - standards compliant?
by Andrew Hull 07 Apr '09

07 Apr '09

Hi Folks, I recently received a complaint regarding the vsFTP server I'm running on a CentOS 4.x box. The complaint was that it is improperly responding to the LIST command - it is not returning hidden (period prefixed) files in the directory listing. I investigated and found that vsFTPd would only return hidden files in the directory listing when it received the command "LIST -a". Reading RFC 959, it appears that the LIST command does not officially support any flags. I found the "force_dot_files" directive in the vsFTPd config file. Enabling the directive appears make vsFTPd RFC compliant with regards to responding to LIST -- returning all files and directories (even "dot files"). So I guess my question is: can anyone confirm that "LIST -a" really is contrary to the RFC? If so, does anyone know why $upstream_vendor would ship a default conf file that is standards non-compliant? Is there something I'm missing here? Thanks, Andy Hull

Re: [CentOS] the 5.2 loaders
by forum＠lemcoe.com 07 Apr '09

07 Apr '09

I would say that people know that 5.2 work and looking at changelogs, they don't see a real NEED to install 5.3. I personally always have the newest release though. One thing I would say to improve visibility, is making a bigger release. It took me a few days to find out that 5.3 was actually out. Maybe digg.com... Etc. ------Original Message------ From: Karanbir Singh Sender: centos-bounces(a)centos.org To: CentOS Mailing list ReplyTo: CentOS Mailing list Sent: Apr 6, 2009 12:32 Subject: [CentOS] the 5.2 loaders Just looking around at log files and other places, I noticed today that there are still a lot of people installing and downloading 5.2. While a large number of installs would be since people already have the 5.2 media - thats fine, however, new downloads for 5.2 media today makes little sense ( to me ) - so whats going on here ? What can we do in order to better, faster, more visibly communicate the fact that 5.3 is the new target most people should be focusing on. I cam imagine there are people with specific needs and they would want the 5.2 media - but not a number so large, that its almost 80% of all the people downloading 5.3 these days. - KB _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry

Bug in yum Logwatch reporting
by Brett Serkez 07 Apr '09

07 Apr '09

I've been noticing yum updates on several servers I manage over the last few weeks, which I know I didn't perform and could not explain until this morning. At first I suspect a break-in, but found no other evidence or reason an intruder would run the yum updates I was viewing. Yum updates are logged in /var/log/yum.log, which is what Logwatch scans. Seems that the format of the log entries is: "MMM DD", the year is missing! This morning looking at this log sequentially I noticed I did do yum updates on Apr 02 and Apr 03 as reported in last night's logwatch, but not April of 2009, but rather April of 2008! Has anyone else noticed this behavior and/or know if there is a fix in progress for it? Brett

Sending a postfix email to my domain.
by James Matthews 07 Apr '09

07 Apr '09

Hi, I have setup postfix on my server (for my blog to send out emails) however I host my email on google apps. I want my server to be able to send emails towards my GoogleApps account but it's sending it to the user within the system (I know this is normal but I need it to be a bit different). Any Help Thanks James -- http://www.astorandblack.com

They offer several operating systems, including CentOS, and give you control over the box to the point that you can even re-image the disk remotely if you truly screw something up. If you do something nasty to it and cause it to lock up, you can still remotely reboot. Hardware RAID-1 is available. You get out-of-the-box CentOS and are allowed to install pretty well anything you like, including virtual machines on top. If you need reverse DNS lookups you can request whatever response you'd like for the IP address(es) you have. Just be aware that what you get is simply a complete machine fully exposed to the Internet, and you're responsible for your own iptables firewalling, etc. Their support staff is friendly and responsive, but they expect you to be your own geek. For DNS service I use Nettica because they are relatively inexpensive and give you control over all of the records. I use GoDaddy strictly as a registrar, and have been very happy with the service, but I don't consider them a serious hosting provider because there's not enough control. I have used several of the free hosting and DNS services out there, but when it comes down to the crunch, you get what you pay for (CentOS is a great exception!) BTW, I have no connection with these companies, I just happen to like their services. A lot. Chuck

acoread 9 slow printing
by Frank Cox 06 Apr '09

06 Apr '09

We use acroread on Centos 5 to print 11x17 plates for a printing press on a HP Laserjet 5100. acroread 8 (AdobeReader_enu-8.1.2-1.i486.rpm) prints a plate in between 60 and 90 seconds. acroread 9 (AdbeRdr9.1.0-1_i486linux_enu.rpm) prints the same plate in 10 to 15 minutes. I've tried this with several different PDF files and it's always the same result. Hooking the printer up with a parallel cable or with the HP Jetdirect network interface makes no noticeable difference. Something has turned the printing performance of acroread 9 into a slug. Is anyone else seeing this kind of behaviour? -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com

Re: [CentOS] Sending a postfix email to my domain.

Not sure if this will solve it, but maybe try putting postfix on a different port. Maybe try using sendmail if postfix won't allow it to work. ------Original Message------ From: James Matthews Sender: centos-bounces(a)centos.org To: CentOS Mailing list ReplyTo: CentOS Mailing list Sent: Apr 6, 2009 19:20 Subject: [CentOS] Sending a postfix email to my domain.
