2.6.18-92.1.6.el5xen -- 8GB missing?
by JJB 13 Jul '08

13 Jul '08

Hello, Last night I upgraded a server to CentOS 5.2. The server has 16GB of RAM. Now that it's running 2.6.18-92.1.6.el5xen only 8GB is reported to exist. # cat /proc/meminfo MemTotal: 8818688 kB MemFree: 3730124 kB Buffers: 202004 kB Cached: 4086788 kB SwapCached: 0 kB Active: 1551480 kB Inactive: 2958196 kB HighTotal: 0 kB HighFree: 0 kB LowTotal: 8818688 kB LowFree: 3730124 kB SwapTotal: 8388600 kB SwapFree: 8388600 kB Dirty: 7348 kB Writeback: 0 kB AnonPages: 220788 kB Mapped: 46948 kB Slab: 137404 kB PageTables: 29012 kB NFS_Unstable: 0 kB Bounce: 0 kB CommitLimit: 12797944 kB Committed_AS: 756072 kB VmallocTotal: 34359738367 kB VmallocUsed: 5004 kB VmallocChunk: 34359733235 kB However, dmesg appears to report something else: # dmesg | grep Memory Memory: 15506152k/15899468k available (2417k kernel code, 384480k reserved, 1350k data, 176k init) I looked in the messages file for complaints and didn't see anything that strikes me as unusual. How much memory is available? Is this a known issue?

Is there a FC8 update repo out there?
by Robert Moskowitz 13 Jul '08

13 Jul '08

So I need python 2.5.1, and all of its dependecies. And 2.5.1 is at least in FC8. So this leads to wanting to try to do the update right via yum, thus needing a repo. Does such a thing exist? I find a directory out there, but no repodata directory with it: http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/fedora/updates/testing/8/

pnm2ppa gone, in any repo?
by Ted Miller 12 Jul '08

12 Jul '08

I can't get my HP DeskJet 712C to print via cups. I believe the reason is that according to http://www.redhat.com/archives/epel-devel-list/2007-May/msg00002.html the pnm2ppa filter got dropped between RHEL 4 and RHEL 5, or between Fedora 6 and RHEL 5, depending on how you look at it. Foomatic still generates the pnm2ppa.xml file, but there is no pnm2ppa binary filter installed, so any print attempt ends with an error message. I don't find that any repo I have installed has picked this up for x86_64 architecture. Do I need to add a repo? Has this not been an issue for enough people that someone has made it available from a repo? Right now this has been a show-stopper on upgrading from Centos 4 to 5, as it is hard to use the workstation without a printer. Any help appreciated. Ted Miller Indiana, USA

Hi there, how can I configure a DSL access using the command line? The Red Hat Certified Engineer Linux Study Guide does not describe this and I could not find any description on the internet. - Gergely

Latest samaba updates
by David G. Mackay 12 Jul '08

12 Jul '08

When I let yum install the latest samba updates, it ate my smb users file and smb.conf. Once I restored those, it gave me several selinux avc denials, one of which I can't clear up. See http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=2965 for details. Anyone else having problems like this? Dave

Iptables not blocking UDP port 53
by Sean Carolan 12 Jul '08

12 Jul '08

I'm attempting to block access to port 53 from internet hosts for an internal server. This device is behind a gateway router so all traffic appears to come from source ip 10.100.1.1. Here are my (non-working) iptables rules: -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -s 10.100.1.1 -m tcp -p tcp --dport 53 -j REJECT -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -s 10.100.1.1 -m udp -p udp --dport 53 -j REJECT Further down the ruleset I have these rules to allow traffic from everyone else. If these rules are removed then nobody can make queries, because of the final default REJECT rule. -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 53 -j ACCEPT -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 53 -j ACCEPT I have used tcpdump and confirmed that packets are in fact still coming across from internet hosts. What am I doing wrong? [scarolan@host:~]$ sudo tcpdump -n udp port 53 | grep 10.100.1.1 tcpdump: listening on eth0 14:46:40.539995 10.100.1.1.60793 > 10.100.1.61.domain: 62011+ A? server.domain.com.

apt vrs yum ?
by Robert - elists 12 Jul '08

12 Jul '08

I was checking out Dag's ( not dagw ;-> ) new blog... I don't know how much, if at all, this has been debated... http://dag.wieers.com/blog/using-apt-in-an-rpm-world if he is so adamant about apt over yum, why are we using yum still? Laziness? ;-) ...or are we just tasty food centric? Yum yum yum !!! - rh
