Eclipse 3.2.1-19 package on Centos 5.2
by Tom [toms400] 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

Hi, I'm using Centos 5.2 and trying to use Eclipse's embedded browser without success. Could this be due to any of the patches that were commented out in 3.2.1-18? When trying to use the embedded browser, I get the error: No more handles (java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no swt-mozilla-gtk-3235 in java.library.path). I have a gre.conf, have set MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME, and LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but continue to get that error. If you have any ideas, I'd be very grateful. Thanks -Tom

Re: OT: RIP settings for private netblocks

The difficulty with this is that it requires yet another host, a reconfiguration of the existing wiring plan, and dealing with a number of other issues which directly arise from the first two requirements. We already use IPtables, and we already have some of our older hosts secured behind sshd linux boxes so that network traffic to them is only carried en clair across direct x-wired patch cables. > If your not well versed in routing I wouldn't recommend > going around making a bunch of changes to a system that > I assume has been more or less working for more than > a decade. Which is why I asked the question if by making a single change to the network parameter of the Cisco Router could I avoid: 1. Physically segmenting my LAN 2. Having to commission an additional host or reconfigure an existing host to multi-homed. Routing is something I do not go at very often and I do not trust my memory for such things in consequence. The manuals and books that I have give sketchy coverage of this aspect and use examples much more narrow in scope than I contemplate. It would be a gross over-statement to say that I am unfamiliar with the concepts of routing. But I am asking for specific guidance on specific software (CISCO ISO 12.x) and hardware (CISCO 26xx series) from someone with experience in these matters. I recognize that this is not the precise forum to ask, thus the OT. On the other hand, I trust that my situation cannot be very dissimilar to those faced previously by many system administrators who also happen to run CentOS.

OT: RIP settings for private netblocks
by James B. Byrne 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

I am contemplating converting some of our internal networks from routable to private IPv4 address space. I have a question about RIP as implemented under Cisco IOS 12.x. Presently the setting for rip is: router rip version 2 passive-interface [[FastEthernet]]0/0 network aaa.bbb.ccc.0 no auto-summary What I would like to know is how one routes the entire 192.168/16 address space using rip. My perusal of the various Cisco manuals, technical documents and various O'Rielly books is not giving me any clear answer and I am rather reluctant to experiment on our live Internet connection. Will this do what I imagine it might, treat any address 192.168.x.y or 10.x.y.z as an internal network? router rip version 2 passive-interface [[FastEthernet]]0/0 network aaa.bbb.ccc.0 network 192.168.0.0 network 10.0.0.0 no auto-summary Regards, -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

ejabberd 2.0.2 vs SELinux vs CentOS 5
by Damian S 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

Lordy, I've been having problems with this darn thing, so I hope someone can help me. :s My troubles started when I downloaded the latest erlang and ejabberd packages. I crashed and burned very quickly, trying two or three different versions of erlang along with several of ejabberd 2.0.x. Finally, after a week of pain, I admitted defeat, wiped the whole lot and installed the binary on the process-one website. Initially, the binary worked well, but mysteriously stopped working whenever I changed the config file and restarted the file. Anyway, to cut a long story short, I have discovered that SELinux is preventing erlang from accessing its crypto libs. This message appears in the SELinux audit logs: type=AVC msg=audit(1223133076.770:102): avc: denied { execmod } for pid=3878 comm="beam.smp" path="/opt/ejabberd-2.0.2_2/lib/crypto-1.5.2/priv/linux-x86/lib/crypto_drv.so" dev=dm-0 ino=26738869 scontext=user_u:system_r:unconfined_t:s0 tcontext=user_u:object_r:usr_t:s0 tclass=file What do I need to do, for selinux to allow this? (Or should I take this question to an SELinux list?) FWIW, ejabberd seems to run fine while selinux is enabled. Its just when starting up, that it needs selinux to stay out of the way.

find - text
by tony.chamberlain＠lemko.com 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

A while ago I sent mail about wanting to find all files that had a certain text string in it and changing it to something else. People mentioned that there is a system tool to do it (gnome has it too). I ran this, for example to find all files WITH "prog" in the name, and then I did a ps and I saw simply find . -iname '*prog*' then I did something similar, all file names but with "prog" in it, and found basically two lines (one was child process of the other, so I assume it was a pipe or something): find . -type f grep -i -c prog this does a grep for case insensitivity for "prog", so basically the tool uses find and grep. I could do something like find . -type f | while read fil do sed -i 's/prog/name/g' $f # change "prog" to "name" done A couple problems here. If what I am changing is the same length then it may be ok. But consider this quick (example) C program state.c int main( int argc, char **argv ) { printf( "Ohio\n" ); } if I compile it to "state" and then print it prints Ohio. If I do (on the compiled file state) sed -i 's/Ohio/Utah/' state then it will print Utah. However, if I change the length sed -i 's/Ohio/Michigan/' state it will of course SIGSEGV because it changed some of the object code. (Actually even doing the same length can be dangerous). What I want to do is either provide another option to the find (which I can'e seem to find), or pipe the files it finds to something like "file" to get only ASCII files (non-object code). However, I am not sure how to do this. On most files, the "file" command will return something with "text" in it, but not all files. For instance, sometimes it returns "application" or "shell script" but it is still OK to do the sed on these. Is there some easy way to take a file name and determine whether sed -i can safely be done on it (i.e., it is ASCII and not some sort of binary file)? Tony

Boot disk order: h/w vs. grub
by MHR 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

I'm still having conceptual trouble with this one. I have two PATA and two SATA disks in my home system. When the system comes up, these are, espectively, /dev/hda, /dev/hdb, /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. I have the boot order of the drives in the boot PROM set to boot from /dev/sda (hard drive 2), then /dev/hda (hd 0), and usually that works fine. /dev/sda is properly set up with the MBR and /boot lives there as well. However, when the system has to be shut down, usually for some length of time more than just a few seconds, when it comes back up, it can't find the boot image. I forgot how I got around this the first time. The second time, when it wasn't booting past the "GRUB" part of the grub announcement, I used the installation disk, booted into linux resuce mode, chroot'd to the actual system disk and re-did grub-install. Still, a few days later (last Tuesday) when my video card went south, I just edited the grub boot line to use root(hd2, 0) and it came up, followed by several reboots with unmodified grub config lines. I guess I'm wondering if there's some more permanent way around this issue. Do I need to overwrite the MBR on hd0? Should I reconfigure the system so the PATA drives are not connected to the m/b at all (i.e., usb enclosures)? Is this a bug in grub? All this is assuming that I do not get rid of the PATA drives and/or get a new m/b that has <something else>.... It seems strange that this should be such a pain, even though in a rather oddball way it makes sense. Thoughts? Thanks mhr

mysqld breaks yum, help?
by Dac Chartrand 06 Oct '08

06 Oct '08

Greetings. After doing: $ yum install mysql-server $ /etc/init.d/mysqld start Yum is broken. Example: $ yum list php Loading "fastestmirror" plugin Loading "priorities" plugin Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * utterramblings: www.jasonlitka.com * base: mirror.nuvio.com Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/yum", line 29, in ? yummain.main(sys.argv[1:]) [..snip..] File "/usr/lib/python2.4/threading.py", line 416, in start _start_new_thread(self.__bootstrap, ()) thread.error: can't start new thread I have the priorities plug-in setup. I did `yum update` before messing around with 3rd party repositories. The only modules I installed from the 3rd party sties are PHP related. More importantly, if I do `/etc/init.d/mysqld stop`, yum works fine. So it's only failing when mysqld is turned on. Can someone offer some insight here? Thank you for your time. $ cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS release 5.2 (Final) --- http://www.sux0r.org/
