So what does everyone out there use to generate web statistics these days? Are the tried and true awstats or webalizer still the best out there? Ray

Can't get past the splash screen
by Eon Strife 20 May '08

20 May '08

Hi, I have a remote frontend (it's kept in the room which I don't have access) which is installed with CentOS 4 and Rocks . So, to use the desktop(Gnome) of the frontend I use the freenx + nomachine following the guide in http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?forum=20&topic_id=1640&vi…. It worked. Then, I intended to add user, but I couldn't create the home folder in /home/ for the new user. After browsing, I found that somebody mentioned it's because of the automounter/autofs. So, I played around, enabled and disabled the autofs, and yes, I could create the home folder for the new user. The problem is that, when I tried to log-in to the front end using nomachine (using root) again, I could only get as far as the splash screen of the CentOS. I tried to connect using the putty (terminal), and I could interact (issuing command to the terminal), but I couldn't use the Gnome anymore. So, why in the nomachine I could not pass the splash screen anymore ? Any solution ? Thanks. Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com

kickstart question with 2 network cards
by Jerry Geis 19 May '08

19 May '08

I am using kickstart to automate installs. working nicely. I now have a box with 2 NIC cards and I am getting prompted for which nick to use. I have a line like: network --device eth0 --bootproto dhcp --hostname tmp.msgnet.com in my kickstart. This line does not seem to be enough to say install with eth0 even though there may be an eth1. How do I tell kickstart to not prompt for which network and just use eth0. Thanks, Jerry

Try specifying the target explicitly: ln -s /mnt/jack/opt/files /opt/files (no trailing slashes on either the source or destination) -- Bowie

yum problem after last kernel
by Alex Palenschat 19 May '08

19 May '08

Hello all, I've been googling and haven't found an answer. I have a Centos 4.6 box that is having an issue since the last yum update. The nss_ldap and kernel packages were the only packages installed/updated. When I try to run yum I now receive: [root@ns1 ~]# yum update There was a problem importing one of the Python modules required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was: /usr/lib/librpmdb-4.3.so: undefined symbol: xdr___db_get_name_reply[rpmdb Please install a package which provides this module, or verify that the module is installed correctly. It's possible that the above module doesn't match the current version of Python, which is: 2.3.4 (#1, Dec 11 2007, 05:27:57) [GCC 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-9)] If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please go to the yum faq at: http://wiki.linux.duke.edu/YumFaq [root@ns1 ~]# rpm -qi rpm-libs Name : rpm-libs Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 4.3.3 Vendor: CentOS Release : 23_nonptl Build Date: Sat 17 Nov 2007 06:13:56 AM CST Install Date: Mon 07 Jan 2008 11:57:33 AM CST Build Host: builder6 Group : Development/Libraries Source RPM: rpm-4.3.3-23_nonptl.src.rpm Size : 1739984 License: GPL Signature : DSA/SHA1, Sun 18 Nov 2007 02:55:20 PM CST, Key ID a53d0bab443e1821 Summary : Libraries for manipulating RPM packages.

Re: [CentOS-announce] Impact of the Debian OpenSSL vulnerability

With this update, any connections attempting to authenticate with a weak key are rejected. There's also a utility which searches through user ~/.ssh directories for blacklisted keys. This blacklist would help in securing non-Debian systems as well.
