Building a 64bit rpm
by Joseph L. Casale 11 Apr '08

11 Apr '08

I want to build the 64bit version of Xen 3.2, they only show one srpm available. I assume if its compiled on a x86_64 version of CentOS 5.1 it will be a 64bit rpm when its done? I am aware its not good to build as root but out of curiosity, if I used a vm that I would later destroy, is the only caveat to building as root potential damage to the build system, or can the actual rpm be built incorrectly? Thanks for any hints, jlc

If you're sshed in, the last update of top will be preserved at least until the system is back up. My old server led me on a wild goose chase when it rebooted whenever backups ran. Turned out that running amanda for backups was the heaviest load the system saw so it aggravated a hardware problem (bad capacitors). Not saying that that's specifically what's going on for your system but there are circumstances where software running causes a load change that then triggers a hardware fault.

Is iptables -j CONNMARK not available in CentOS4??
by Eric B. 11 Apr '08

11 Apr '08

Hi, I'm running CentOS 4 with most of the latest updates, but am having trouble with iptables and the CONNMARK target. Is it available in the CentOS 4 kernel? Running on i386: kernel: 2.6.9-67.0.4.ELsmp iptables: v1.2.11 # iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -j CONNMARK --set-mark 1 iptables: No chain/target/match by that name I see I do have the CONNMARK lib in /lib/iptables/libipt_CONNMARK.so. Am I doing something wrong to have access to it? Thanks, Eric

question on RAID performance
by Jerry Geis 11 Apr '08

11 Apr '08

Hi all, I was wonder what experiences there are out there with using RAID-X for performance increases. I do use RAID-1 (2 disks) but am interested in attemtps to gain higher R/W performance. Do the RAID-5's etc give noticeable performace increases? A significant help for me was using ccache for compiling programs. That was a real performance increase. Thanks for any suggestions/opinions. jerry

SugarCRM pro and PHP 5.2
by Chris Boyd 11 Apr '08

11 Apr '08

We're looking at SugarCRM 5, but they strongly recommend PHP 5.2.4. Looking around I see that a few individuals are maintaining repos for CentOS, but I'd prefer to get it from one of the larger repositories. Anyone out there using http://www.jasonlitka.com/yum-repository/ ? Any idea when PHP 5.2x will be available? --Chris

aide questions, please
by Steve Campbell 11 Apr '08

11 Apr '08

I'm trying out aide since tripwire doesn't seem to be in the 5. releases anymore. I do not have Selinux on the server (no at installation), and I just yum installed the aide rpms, so I should have the latest. When I run my aide --init, I get all of these lines for all the files: lgetfilecon_raw failed for /usr/share/X11/app-defaults/XLogo:No data available I then copy the 'new' db file to the regular db file and run aide --check, and it seems I get the above lines all over again. It's as though the db files aren't being read. I noticed in the preceding release of aide that problems existed and was related to Selinux and the inability to read gz files. Am I doing something obviously wrong? Do I need to do an --update or is this just when I get reports that something has changed after the --init? Thanks for any help and replies. Steve Campbell

snmpd wont start on CentOS 4.4?
by Gustavo 10 Apr '08

10 Apr '08

Hello All, Ive searched the arqchives, but didnt find anything like this.. Maybe im missing some trick here... The problem: I've instaled snmpd and snmp-utils packages with yum. Im using and old simple .conf file, i've been using on my fedora 1 box, but when I try to start snmpd, it just says OK, (Starting snmpd..........[OK]), but the service dont work at all. I dont see any process running with "ps". Ive checked the logs, and found that it could be related to SE Linux and I tryed to disable it, but it still doesnt work. Im not using iptables localy, so, its not iptables related. Already tryed uninstall <> install. Any trick here? Thanks a lot. Gustavo. BTW: Its currently working on my fedora1. This is the last thing I need to fix to upgrade.
