Re: [CentOS] sendmail aliases
by Brent L. Bates 02 Apr '08

Sendmail used to automatically compare creation dates of the text and database aliases files and when the text one was newer than the database one, sendmail would automatically update the database file at a convenient time. This made a lot of sense. However, the powers that be decided to break this great feature and removed it. I copied it back into to source we use. -- Brent L. Bates (UNIX Sys. Admin.)

centos 5.1 x86_64 and ztdummy
by Jerry Geis 02 Apr '08

02 Apr '08

Anyone out there using Centos 5.1 asterisk (ztdummy) x86_64, 2.6.18-53.1.14.el5 kernel? I seem to be having problems with simple playback on asterisk(). If I do the normal service zaptel start (my configs have 0 hardware cards for asterisk) ztdummy is loaded and when doing a playback() I head no audio. If I unload ztdummy and do the same I hear playback. Please dont jump the gun hear and say this is an asterisk issue as I dont think so... This seems to be kernel related. perhaps an RTC (real time clock) thing? This version of asterisk has always worked for me before on centos 5.1 but now there is a newer kernel. Any one know anything about this? Jerry

The wiki explains how to create a dvd with the updates previously downloaded, but how does one integrate these into a freshly authored DVD? Is such a task possible? Thanks! jlc

The excuse given for removing the automatic update of the aliases database file was that it was a security issue. The thought was that someone could tapper with the file and cause problems. However, all these files are checked for proper file permissions and if they are not set correctly, sendmail will not work or at least give a warning. If someone nasty has permission to change the aliases text file, then they have permission to reck a lot more havoc on your system anyways and this change isn't going to help any. Personally, having sendmail do it itself is safer than me doing it manually. What if I'm in the process of updating the file at the same moment sendmail needs it. Sendmail could read a partial file and cause more problems. I see this already with the access file. With sendmail doing it on it's own, I don't have to worry about it. It will update it when it needs to.

Actually it *IS* a source change. The `confAUTO_REBUILD' option has been deleted from the sendmail source files for some time now. One can put that option in the sendmail.mc configuration file, but it will not be used because it isn't in the source any more. I've double checked this and have looked at the source. Now, I suppose if one isn't using a current version of sendmail, then this option may still be in the version you are using.

backup to disk
by Ray Leventhal 02 Apr '08

02 Apr '08

Hi, I'm looking for common practices for backing up user data to disk. My user data is all in /home. I'm also interested in what folks are doing for things backing up os and configs. Any pointers on setting up rsync, cpio, etc would be appreciated. Pointers to good how-to's especially welcome. Currently we're using Arkeia Network Backup (commercial product with which I am in no way affiliated), and it's great, but with disk space so cheap, I'd love to be able to take my current non-raid setup and find a way to get up and running quickly in the case of some failures. Thanks in advance, -Ray PS - sorry if this shows up twice...I posted on 29 March, but never saw it on the list :)
