RHEL/CentOS5.2 and rsyslogd
by Laurence Alexander Hurst 11 Jun '08

11 Jun '08

Hi there, I am slightly confused by the RHEL release notes and an earlier thread here about rsyslogd, so I hope someone can clear this up for me; I see that rsyslog is included in RHEL as of 5.2 (and so will be available in CentOS when 5.2 is ready) however there is no indication of whether it has been made the default syslogger or not - is it an optional package or installed by default on a fresh install? (I would check myself, but I do not have any RHEL5 machines to hand.) Thanks -Laurence

RE: [CentOS] School Server Setup

does/will this school have a website, or at least one web page somewhere, where it presents itself and mentions that it uses Free Software? If yes, please let me know, I'd like to add a link to it on this page: At this stage they have nothing and this is where I am getting involved to setup website for them as well Marco once I get the project going I will send you the link to the school website and you can add the link on http://digifreedom.net/node/55 -- Thanks Harry S

TFP inside firewall
by lingu 11 Jun '08

11 Jun '08

Hi, I have a setup where the tftp server is inside the firewall. Now the issue is tftp client send request on dynamic udp port. Can anyone give some idea, how i can bind the fixed port for client udp requests ? Otherwise i hope, it is not a solution that i will open all port related to UDP in the firewall. Regards, lingu

Newer GNOME than base release
by MHR 10 Jun '08

10 Jun '08

I have asked about this before, but I don't have a workable answer yet. I would like to know if there is a way to install a more recent GNOME package on CentOS 5.x than 2.16.0. 1) GNOME Bugzilla does not support this version any more - all bugs go into the bit bucket. 2) Having been exposed to Fedora 8 at work and seeing how much more flexible GNOME 2.22 is, I would REALLY like to take a shot at using it on my CentOS systems. 3) I asked about this on the GNOME list and I was told I should build it, and that jhbuild or garnome would do the job for me. This has not been my experience - both of them have major hangups building on my home desktop (the 64-bit hybrid CentOS 5.1 environment). 4) Johnny suggested I try mock to build in a chroot, pure 64-bit environment. I was unable to locate a mock that actually installed and worked on my system. (Yeah, yeah, I know, I'm the only person for whom this does not work. Heard it, can't believe it, must be doing something most others don't, whatever.... ;*) I have trouble believing that the ONLY ways to get a newer GNOME are to wait for CentOS 6, run a different distro (not likely) or build it myself. This is Linux, after all, isn't it? (That's a rhetorical question - no answer required, unless those /really are/ the only options....) TIA. mhr

Setting up a chroot
by MHR 10 Jun '08

10 Jun '08

I'm trying to build GNOME (to run a more recent version than 2.16.* on CentOS 5.1) and I keep running into a lot of rather strange problems. I'm wondering if this might have something to do with my hybrid 64 and 32 bit general environment, so I want to try a pure 64-bit chroot. I've never done this before, and I'm not entirely sure how to, and I didn't see anything particularly on point, either at centos.org or google. If I missed it, just say where and that should be enough. Guidelines? Suggestions (other than "go away" or other physically difficult crudities :-)? Thanks. mhr

One approach would be to use the find command given above to generate a list of files that have changed. Then pass that list to rsync via the '--files-from' option to transfer them to the other server. -- Bowie
