How to view djvu files?
by Marko Vojinovic 17 Oct '08

17 Oct '08

Greetings to everyone! On Fedora I used to use djvulibre package for djvu files, but I cannot seem to find this in any CentOS repositores out there. Google also does not help, nor searching list archives. :-( I have found the .rpm file for RHEL 4, but when I tried to install it (hoping that it just might work) rpm refused to install with the error: file /usr/share/mimelnk/image/x-djvu.desktop from install of djvulibre-3.5.17-1.el4.rf conflicts with file from package kdelibs-3.5.4-16.el5.centos I' out of ideas. What package (or viewer) provides djvu functionality? CentOS 5.2, fully updated. Best, :-) Marko __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

CGI configuration - second post
by tech 17 Oct '08

17 Oct '08

This is my second request for help with this problem. I have followed the suggestions given the first time and made some progress but I still have one final problem/question. I have two CGI scripts that don't work. One is the standard Set-Cookie, examples can be found all over the net, that sets a cookie and prints "Your cookie name is set." The other is an automatic installation script that comes from commerce-cgi.com and is for installing their CGI shopping cart. Both of these scripts are now located in /var/www/cgi-bin/ and the folder and the scripts are set to apache:apache 755. BTW a setting of root:root also fails exactly the same way. If I run either of these scripts from a browser using www.domain.com it fails. If I run it from a browser using www.domain.com/cgi-bin/install.cgi or www.domain.com/cgi-bin/techtest.cgi it works. I have tried using a one line index.shtml file with that one line being either  or  and they both fail. They do find and execute the script. The set cookie script prints the "Your cookie name is set." message OK but the cookie is not sent to the browser. The install script loads the first HTML page ok but does not load the second page. I had a friend-of-a-friend IT guy that I trust look at everything. He hasn't found anything obvious. If he tries to run either of these scripts from his computer, it works OK. Can someone here help me understand why this is happening? Mel PS posts in other online places (as suggested here) did not get any replies.

avahi and mDNS
by Craig White 17 Oct '08

17 Oct '08

Trying to figure out how to make it work. Seems as though it should be pretty easy. installed package (from yum search) avahi-compat-libdns_sd.i386 : Libraries for Apple Bonjour mDNSResponder compatibility. /etc/nsswitch.conf altered line so it reads, hosts: files dns mdns mdns4 started avahi-dnsconfd service (don't know that it's needed) restarted avahi-daemon service but the syslog says... Oct 17 00:07:41 srv-adv avahi-daemon[12618]: WARNING: No NSS support for mDNS detected, consider installing nss-mdns! and there is no package that I am aware of called nss-mdns, at least yum search doesn't turn up anything other than the avahi-compat-libdns_sd that I installed above. Anyone know what I am missing? Craig

Problems with firstboot in CentOS 5
by Alfred von Campe 17 Oct '08

17 Oct '08

I'm trying to customize the firstboot process in CentOS 5 and have come across a few issues that are driving me nuts. I'm sure they are all upstream issues, but I don't have a RHEL 5 system to verify them. I had these customizations working in CentOS 4, but things that used to work then don't work now. The main problem is that you can't validate user input. This problem can be easily seen in the firstboot "Create User" module. If you are in this screen, deliberately enter mismatched passwords. You will get a warning that the passwords do not match, but when you click OK to dismiss the warning you are taken to the next screen. In CentOS 4, firstboot would stay at the current screen until all user input had been validated. If you look at the underlying Python code, when you returned "None" from the apply method it would not exit the module in CentOS 4, but it does in CentOS 5. I also can't get the firstboot Display module to load. It ships with "skipme = True", but setting it to false or removing that line altogether does not show the module. It appears to me that there a lots of issues with firstboot in CentOS 5. Actually, in my environment (~40 desktops), CentOS 5 has been far less stable than CentOS 4 (mostly Gnome issues with Terminal windows crashing and window "flickering"). I've reported some of these issues before on this list. My servers seem to be rock stable, though. Anyway, for now I will have to live with these issues. Can I report these issues in the Red Hat bugzilla database or do I need to be a RHN subscriber to report bugs against RHEL5? I suspect (but have not verified) that these issues have been addressed in Fedora already. Alfred

Missing something about sendmail
by Paul R. Ganci 17 Oct '08

17 Oct '08

Hi All, I have a strange problem that I don't understand. I have an access file which has the following line: 168.144.250.215 OK # xsmtp02.mail2web.com Yet email from this IP address is getting rejected. From my log file Oct 15 21:52:33 mx01 sendmail[10569]: ruleset=check_relay, arg1=xsmtp02.mail2web.com, arg2=168.144.250.215, relay=xsmtp02.mail2web.com [168.144.250.215], reject=553 5.3.0 OK # xsmtp02.mail2web.com Is this because I have commented out dnl FEATURE(delay_checks)dnl in my sendmail.mc? What is the ruleset check_relay actually doing in this case. I have seen other cases where it rejected a message but always with a useful message. why is there a reject=553 code but with an OK after it? Can somebody give me a clue as to what I have misconfigured. -- Paul (ganci(a)nurdog.com)

Do you think that by definition, the "system-admins" list should encompass that freedom? Linux system administration is not limited to bash scripting and configuring Apache virtual hosts, but also includes architecting multi-tiered, multi-faceted, multi-platform environments. I think the label of "system-admins" for a second list is going in the right direction. Maybe something a bit more specific, like CentOS-sysadmin-advanced? Not the best name, but conveys my idea. The understanding on that list is that the application of CentOS in real world environments can and should also be discussed. Eh? Yes, no, maybe? -Ken
