VNC vs GNOME desktop
by fred smith 27 Jun '08

27 Jun '08

I'm trying to use VNC to connect my home Centos box (up to date centos 5) to my Centos 4 (also up to date) at work. I have no problem connecting. The problem occurs after logging in, for every applet in the bottom Gnome panel I get an error box from which I can choose to remove the applet from the panel, or just go on. I choose to not delete but to just go on. After I get a half dozen or so of those, the desktop is fully drawn, except the bottom panel is completely empty. no desktop switcher, or anything else. I've googled and looked in centos forums and realvnc FAQs and don't find any reference to such a problem. Clues would be appreciated! Here's the text from that dialog: The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:GNOME_howDesktopApplet". Details: Failed to resolve, or extend '!prefs_key=/apps/panel/applets/show_desktop_button/ Prefs;background=none:;orient=up;size=x-small;locked_down=false Do you want to delete the applet from your configuration? and I get that once for each applet. here's the ~/.vnc/xstartup file from the server: #!/bin/sh # Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop: unset SESSION_MANAGER exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc [ -x /etc/vnc/xstartup ] && exec /etc/vnc/xstartup [ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources xsetroot -solid grey vncconfig -iconic & xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" & twm & -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex(a)fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ----------------------------- The Lord is like a strong tower.

backup with dd
by Hiep Nguyen 27 Jun '08

27 Jun '08

hi all, i have a centos box and would like to back up just in case the hard drive fail. one way to do this is duplicate the image of the hard drive, so if the hard drive fail, just remove it and put mirrored hard drive and done. here my system info: uname -a Linux jadenet.jadesterling.com 2.6.9-22.0.2.EL #1 Tue Jan 17 06:51:40 CST 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 37G 15G 20G 43% / /dev/hda1 99M 8.9M 85M 10% /boot none 188M 0 188M 0% /dev/shm i'm looking into dd, but is there anything better than dd? by the way, i would like to use external hard drive via usb to do mirror image. this is an internal box and very little info/actvities going on in this box. so, i don't have to worry about backup everyday. i may want to backup once a month. thanks, T.

How to enable SHA1 passwords after migration from OpenSUSE?
by Papalagi Pakeha 27 Jun '08

27 Jun '08

Hi there! I have recently migrated my old server from OpenSUSE 10.0 to CentOS 5. Almost everything works great, except for one thing - user passwords. In the old system they were in a form: root:$2a$05$9V.P3/KV2fd0r/O8hs0gNueaidF35edj3DL6skb32qZJNpvwVHiUO:12183:0:99999:7::: and that format doesn't seem to be understood by CentOS. When I change the password I get something like: root:$1$Z0HGYkIb$fbkW0gR6c.k7rENE1NlzE0:14055:0:99999:7::: Note the encrypted password begins with $2a$... in OpenSUSE while in CentOS it starts with $1$... CentOS passwords (MD5?) are understood by OpenSUSE but OpenSUSE passwords (SHA1?) are not understood by CentOS. Is there any way around that? Perhaps get some PAM module from OpenSUSE? Or just some setting somewhere? Having to reset passwords for all my users would be a royal pain. Thanks! PaPa

Headphone on a Acer Extensa 5220
by Olaf Mueller 27 Jun '08

27 Jun '08

Hello, is there any chance to get a headphone working under a acer extensa 5220 with CenOS 5.2 (2.6.18-92.1.6.el5) installed? Maybe by centosplus or self compiled alsa sources? # rpm -qa | grep alsa alsa-lib-1.0.14-1.rc4.el5 alsa-utils-1.0.14-3.rc4.el5 The sound works great on this notebook and the hardware is detected as 'Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller snd-hda-intel'. But the only settings alsamixer shows are 'Master' and 'PCM', nothing about Headphone or Microphone. Microphone is not so important, but a working headphone on the notebook would be great. Any ideas to get it working? Thank you very much! regards Olaf

java-1.4.2-gcj-compat.i386 update failure
by William L. Maltby 27 Jun '08

27 Jun '08

Hmmm, I seemed to have created a misalignmnet somewhere along the line. I can't remember doing anything to this. But at one time I did try to test the java open source. Posted my results to the list, got no response, abandoned all hope and went on my merry way. I don't know if this is related. I have installed an rpm for a java needed by an application I run. It was from the official java site. I don't know if this is related. Here's what I know. Well, I think I know this. /usr/bin/rebuild-security-providers seems to be missing from jpackage-utils.noarch.

Starting a Local CentOS Mirror
by Art Age Software 27 Jun '08

27 Jun '08

Hi all, I would like to set up a local CentOS mirror, as suggested by others on this list, to cut down on bandwidth usage, etc. I have read a couple HowTos and it seems pretty straight-forward, but I do have some questions. 1) How should I change my entries in /etc/yum.repos.d? Specifically, should I replace CentOS-Base.repo with my own .repo file? 2) Is there a way to configure yum to prefer the local repo, but use an external mirror if the local is not available? 3) What is the best practice around keeping the local repo updated? A once-a-day cron job to rsync from an external mirror? If this is the correct approach, is there a way to rsync from a "mirror list" so that updates won't fail if a particular mirror happens to be unavailable when the cron job runs? Thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide. I want to be sure I get this right!
