masquerade from - postfix
by David Hláčik 22 Dec '08

22 Dec '08

Hello guys, recently my mail provider started blocking mails from non-existent domain. We use for internal purposes domain labs.hlacik.eu which exists only in our local DNS servers. Our mailserver is sx1.labs.polarion.com . As we use virtual domains configuration & mailman i want to keep it that way == unchanged myorigin or mydomain. What i want to setup is just masquerading for mails sent from localhost. As example mail from root(a)sx1.labs.polarion.com should be masqueraded to mail from root(a)polarion.com and etc. This is very easy fix in sendmail, but how to do this in postfix - and not to break virtual domains configuration. Thanks in advance! David

help with hdparm

I am running centos 5.2 i686. The /boot/config indicates that VIA82CXXXX is built into the kernel. CONFIG_BLK_DEV_VIA82CXXX=y my lspci -v gives 00:0f.0 IDE interface: VIA Technologies, Inc.

Unknown device 0581 Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 32 I/O ports at fc00 [size=16] Capabilities: [b0] Power Management version 2 Which I think is the VIA part. when I do "hdparm /dev/hdc" I get /dev/hdc: multcount = 0 (off) IO_support = 0 (default 16-bit) unmaskirq = 0 (off) using_dma = 0 (off) keepsettings = 0 (off) readonly = 0 (off) readahead = 256 (on) geometry = 15733/16/63, sectors = 15858864, start = 0 when I do "hdparm -d1 /dev/dhc" I get /dev/hdc: setting using_dma to 1 (on) HDIO_SET_DMA failed: Operation not permitted using_dma = 0 (off) I get operation not permitted.

Firefox 3.0.4 and Adobe Flash (CentOS 5 (32bit))
by Lanny Marcus 22 Dec '08

22 Dec '08

Last night, a visitor was using my daughters box and she was using mine. The web site she was on wanted Adobe Flash or a newer version of Adobe Flash. At that moment, I forgot that I have the Adobe Yum Repository installed. I downloaded the .rpm file from Adobe and when I tried to install it, got a message that a later version is already installed. First thought was the other thread, about Firefox and Adobe for .pdf files. Is this a glitch in the latest version of Firefox we are now using? My box is fully updated. In Add Ons, for Plug Ins, I see Shockwave Flash v. 9.0 r124 and the rest is Mplayer stuff. TIA

Try again with the resolution parameters like Alan suggested but with lower resolution and "vga", e.g. system-config-display --set-resolution=640x480 --set-driver=vga Note that I changed "vesa" to "vga" since the card mentions only vga. I don't know if that will work because I see the "insufficient memory" message you mention below. That may be a result of color depth combined with memory limitations. But if it does work, maybe you get going good enough to proceed. BIOS! That memory thing reminds me.

Not the whole file, just save some of the pertinent lines in a file and copy them into the reply. But maybe this won't be needed. See below about possible BIOS. > > > I don't recall what card you have - nvidia? > > VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M71 [Mobility Radeon X2100] > (rev ce) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Well, then you should be able to get any vga or svga compatible mode going. (S)VGA is a well-defined set of standards that if a card says it is compatible, the interface is "standard" and the card says it can support those compatible modes. Since the text mode changes worked with the "vga=" added, there may be some hope yet. > > I think now it's a X server problem as it can't compute modelines for vga > module. I get, in Xorg.0.log, many lines as: > (II) VGA(0): Not using default mode "320x240" (insufficient memory for mode) > > Lines differs in mode value > > (II) VGA(0): Not using default mode "1920x1200" (insufficient memory for mode) > > I know that the 1920x1200 mode is doable. Have you gone into BIOS and seen what is there that might be affecting this stuff? I know there are often selectable modes for video cards. Often in a laptop, main memory is shared with the video card. If you have not allocated enough memory to the video, maybe that is causing a lot of the problems? If you "system" memory is really small, you may not be able to get decent resolution with higher color resolutions. If your BIOS has settings, start off with 4 bit color depth. That gives 16 colors only, but it's a start. Also pick a low resolution, like 640x480 or 800x640(?). Maybe a combination of 4 bit color depth, low resolution, more memory shared with video chip, etc. makes it start working. Oh! Don't forget the video card mode if the BIOS has a setting for it. > > Regards > Alain > <snip> We're starting to get close to the end of things I can think of. I hope something works here! -- Bill

Rebuild libc-client from uw source?
by Noah Miller 22 Dec '08

22 Dec '08

Hi - I'm running CentOS 5.2, and I'm trying to use libc-client, but I'm having some troubles. It seems the pre-built libc-client (2004g) rpm from the yum repository doesn't support the mm_dlog feature. I tried rebuilding from the source rpm, but that didn't help - still no mm_dlog support. I also tried various other libc-client rpms for other RedHat-type systems FC, WhiteBox, etc, but I couldn't find any that worked and had mm_dlog support. My question: Does anybody know what I would need to do to build libc-client from scratch from UW's sources? I tried a basic build and I do get c-client.a, but I definitely don't get any shared object libraries in the output. Thanks, Noah

I've been having a problem for a while: when booting, haldaemon will fail, leaving me without CD/DVD and floppy drives available. Has anyone else had this kind of problem? If so, can anyone suggest a solution?

BackupPC: two newbie questions
by Timothy Murphy 22 Dec '08

22 Dec '08

I'm running BackupPC under Centos-5.2. 1. Will BackupPC backup files in NFS-mounted directories? If so, is there any simple way of preventing this? 2. I have seen it suggested that it is not a good idea to backup onto a partition on the same drive as the BackupPC server? Is that true? If so, is a partition on a separate drive on the same machine also bad? Ps Apologies if this has been posted before; I have had some problems communicating with mailing lists. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
