Yum update erased jdk, jre, and fuse-davfs2
by Robert Moskowitz 29 Mar '08

29 Mar '08

I just did a yum update. It pulled in a number of updates including the latest firefox and davfs2.i386. Then I watch the following show up during the cleanup phase of yum (/var/log/messages): Mar 28 15:42:18 nc2400 Erased: jdk Mar 28 15:42:25 nc2400 Erased: jre Mar 28 15:42:31 nc2400 Erased: fuse-davfs2 Are the first jsut removal of the alternatives? How do I tell and how do I find that message where I got what to do. There were soo many "alternatives" I tried til I got it right...... And something did happen to fuse-davfs2, becuase I now get: /sbin/mount.davfs: can't open fuse device /sbin/mount.davfs: trying coda kernel file system /sbin/mount.davfs: no free coda device to mount BTW, yes, I did reboot after the update.

Sound card problem
by David G. Miller 29 Mar '08

29 Mar '08

I came into an Abit AX8 motherboard and single core AMD Athlon 64 FX. I did a quick install of CentOS 5.0 on it to make sure everything worked and then returned the hard disk and case to the original owner. After getting a new case and hard disk, I downloaded the CentOS 5.1 cd images and installed. For some reason the motherboard's on board sound no longer works (worked with CentOS 5.0). dmesg gives me: ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [ALKC] enabled at IRQ 22 ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:11.5[C] -> Link [ALKC] -> GSI 22 (level, low) -> IRQ 90 PCI: Setting latency timer of device 0000:00:11.5 to 64 codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0x1fc0000] codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0x1fe0000] codec_ready: codec 0 is not ready [0x1000000] codec_ready: codec 0 is not ready [0x1000000] codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0x1fc0000] codec_read: codec 0 is not valid [0x1fe0000] AC'97 0 access is not valid [0xffffffff], removing mixer.

It seems kind of silly that it doesn't work now. I've Googled for some different parts of the dmesg output but haven't found anything helpful. Same with error messages from aplay, amixer, etc. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Dave -- Politics, n. Strife of interests masquerading as a contest of principles. -- Ambrose Bierce

Big devices and missing space
by Morten Nilsen 29 Mar '08

29 Mar '08

Hello, I have a Promise EX 12-port RAID controller in my box, connected to 8 750GB disks. I have set up 2 RAID-5 devices and joined these using LVM. This is working fine. However, there is something that seems wrong.. (4-1) * 750 = 2250, but df reports the LVM volume as a mere 4.0T; /dev/mapper/storage_volume-stor 4.0T 3.6T 507G 88% /storage Shouldn't this be 4.5TB?

IMAP security
by Anne Wilson 29 Mar '08

29 Mar '08

I have port 143 open so that I can get my mail when away from home. Occasionally, though, my router reports things like Thu, 2008-03-27 02:00:11 - TCP Packet - Source:200.122.134.9,3821 Destination:88.97.17.41,143 - [IMAP rule match] Thu, 2008-03-27 05:39:49 - TCP Packet - Source:140.127.181.141,3461 Destination:88.97.17.41,143 - [IMAP rule match] Thu, 2008-03-27 16:10:03 - TCP Packet - Source:80.88.161.125,2352 Destination:88.97.17.41,143 - [IMAP rule match] Looking at those addresses in whois, I don't see any good reason for these, and I'm concerned in case they are relays. Advice? Anne

how do I run something on a newly installed server, on it's 1st boot only?
by Rudi Ahlers 29 Mar '08

29 Mar '08

Hi all I'm busy with a kickstart file to automate server installations, and I need to run a bash script right after the server has been installed for the first time. But the script only needs to run once, and it needs to run automatically. How do I do that? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Web: http://www.SoftDux.com Check out my technical blog, http://blog.softdux.com for Linux or other technical stuff, or visit http://www.WebHostingTalk.co.za for Web Hosting stuff

questions on kickstart
by Jerry Geis 28 Mar '08

28 Mar '08

I have 2 questions dealing with 2 different kickstart files. 1) my kickstart sections for RAID disk setup and kickstart reports it cannot find sda. Why is that. sda is there and works. clearpart --all --initlabel part raid.01 --asprimary --bytes-per-inode=4096 --fstype="raid" --onpart=sda1 --size=20000 part swap --asprimary --bytes-per-inode=4096 --fstype="swap" --onpart=sda2 --size=4000 part raid.02 --bytes-per-inode=4096 --fstype="raid" --grow --onpart=sda3 --size=1 part raid.03 --asprimary --bytes-per-inode=4096 --fstype="raid" --onpart=sdb1 --size=20000 part swap --asprimary --bytes-per-inode=4096 --fstype="swap" --onpart=sdb2 --size=4000 part raid.04 --asprimary --bytes-per-inode=4096 --fstype="raid" --grow --onpart=sdb3 --size=1 raid / --bytes-per-inode=4096 --device=md0 --fstype="ext3" --level=1 raid.01 raid.03 raid / --bytes-per-inode=4096 --device=md1 --fstype="ext3" --level=1 raid.02 raid.04 2) my kickstart section for normally single disk setup. However with 2 disks present in box it put / on sda and /home on sdb. Is there a way to put it ALL on sda??? If there is a second disk I want it left alone. clearpart --all --initlabel part / --fstype ext3 --size=20000 --asprimary part swap --size=4000 --asprimary part /home --fstype ext3 --size=100 --grow --asprimary THanks, Jerry

arp_filter
by Milton Calnek 28 Mar '08

28 Mar '08

Hello all, I have an annoying networking issue. The value of arp_filter is getting changed. /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/eth0/arp_filter 1 I specifically set it to 0 via /sbin/ifup-local. The hosts in question are setup to test some network gear, and they all have 1 "management" interface and 1 or more through put interface. Any ideas on how to keep this value from changing? -- Milton Calnek BSc, A/Slt(Ret.) milton(a)calnek.com 306-717-8737 -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.

mysql-server installing...or not`
by Ray Leventhal 28 Mar '08

28 Mar '08

Hi all, I've got a clean CentOS 5.1 install and need php/mysql support. Seems mysql (client) is installed, but I need server, so I did yum install mysql-server and got the errors posted below. Have I missed something or is there a problem with this package?
