package 'synchronization' for multiple systems
by Tim Alberts 08 Feb '08

08 Feb '08

I'm setting up multiple systems and ideally I want the same package configuration on all of them. So I'm going through yum and rpm queries manually to try and get this done. There must be a better way. Is there a way to use yum or rpm to configure multiple systems with the same packages? If yum or rpm has something native built into it to do this, that would be great. If there's some scripts to simplify some tasks that works too. I've used webmin's 'Cluster Software Package' module, and will probably fall back to it. However I don't think I get the info that yum gives regarding package grouping and what packages are part of what capabilities. Gotta query elsewhere for it. (no disrespect to webmin folks, great tool)

Centos 5.1 ext3 filesystem limit
by Gary Molenkamp 08 Feb '08

08 Feb '08

Centos 5.1 documentation states that the supported ext3 filesystem limit is 16TB, yet I have a 9.5TB partition that is claimed to be too large: mke2fs 1.39 (29-May-2006) mke2fs: Filesystem too large. No more than 2**31-1 blocks (8TB using a blocksize of 4k) are currently supported.

Using tcpdump to sniff telnet password
by Fajar Priyanto 07 Feb '08

07 Feb '08

Hi all, As long as I can remember reading various articles/docs, they all say that telnet is not secure because all traffic is in clear text. Well, out of boredom, I try to sniff username and password from a telnet session. The command I use: tcpdump tcp port 23 -vvv -w test.txt Then I read the result: strings test.txt |`D |fD |fD 38400,38400 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ESD Ologin: D 5eE LsE _tE Password: F [aG |hG jaH Last login: Wed Feb 6 15:53:3H ]0;test4@server:~ GV{ But it succeeds with FTP. strings test.txt <.9@ 4.:@ 220 (vsFTPd 2.0.1) 4.;@ @.<@ USER test4 331 Please specify the passwor 4.=@ B.>@ PASS secret 230 Login successful. 4.?@ :.@@ SYST 215 UNIX Type: L8 4.A@ Did I miss something? How do we capture telnet password using tcpdump?

POSIX semaphores in CentOS 5.1?
by MHR 07 Feb '08

07 Feb '08

According to the man pages for sem_wait, etc., POSIX semaphores are available in Linux 2.6 (with the right NTPL threading in glibc). However, I have a program that compiles just fine but won't link because it can't find the library for the semaphore operations. What am I missing? I ran a find and grep through all the libc's on the system and they turned up nothing: $ find /lib /usr/lib -name "*libc\.*" -print -exec nm {} 2>/dev/null \; | grep sem_ (no results) Time is critical (yeah, I know...). Thanks. mhr

poppler-utils missing pdftoppm
by Max Hetrick 07 Feb '08

07 Feb '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I found a thread here about this problem, but no answer or resolution as to whether it's a bug, or even something that can be fixed. <http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=12114&forum=38> I'm trying to get PDF support under DocMGR to work correctly and it's complaining about pdftoppm being missing. A bit of Googling and I found where pdftoppm is supposed to be included with poppler-utils package. I check on my FC 7 system which is running poppler-utils poppler-utils-0.5.4-7.fc7, and pdftoppm is physically there and located in /usr/bin. I'm running CentOS 5 with poppler-utils-0.5.4-4.3.el5_1. Is this a bug? Or is this resolvable?

Samba GUI interface
by Dean Maluski 07 Feb '08

07 Feb '08

CentOS 5.1 I was just trying to add users and shares to Samba from GUI interface. I've already added users from command line. Regardless, when I go to select users the existing users is blank. When I add a user if it already exists I get a complaint that user exists. If I add a new user from GUI it does not get added to the blank list. OK I just added a user from gui, applied it [HIT OK] went back and tried to add user again but when hitting [OK] complained that user exists. Seems things are working except listing existing users in interface. I can live with this but I'm about to upgrade a server at work and ultimately I was hoping my Windows Sys Admin could manage to administrate Samba. I don't think this will be possible without a GUI.

Set hardware clock manually
by Joseph L. Casale 07 Feb '08

07 Feb '08

I can't reboot a server to set the hardware clock to UTC time, but CentOS was installed with the assumption that the PC was running UTC. Is it possible to update the hardware clock to the right time and therefore allow CentOS to maintain the right time without rebooting? I am hoping to use this route for consistency versus changing how CentOS interprets the time so all servers are the same. Thanks! jlc

system smtp server question
by Joseph L. Casale 07 Feb '08

07 Feb '08

If I have a production mailserver and a series of Linux servers that all develop mail from logging etc, it seems slightly redundant to have so many smtp servers installed on each of those boxes simply forwarding mail as I choose to not have local delivery. Is there a mechanism possible in CentOS to setup a pointer to a different mailserver such that programs like mailx could still send mail? Currently I have postfix setup with maps so that root on server A has mail sent from root(a)server-a.fqdn<mailto:root@server-a.fqdn> and that is relayed to my production box. It just seems like it is an additional service to manage on so many hosts? Thanks! jlc

Dependency problem in heartbeat-ldirectord update for Centos 4.6

I've just been trying to do a "yum update" on a Centos 4.6 system, and one of the packages it wants to upgrade is heartbeat-ldirectord from 2.1.2-3 to 2.1.3-2 However, the newer version has dependency problems that can't be resolved: [root@miton2 ~]# yum update Loading "fastestmirror" plugin Loading "protectbase" plugin Setting up Update Process Setting up repositories Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Reading repository metadata in from local files 0 packages excluded due to repository protections Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.
