centosplus + priority plugin
by Christopher Chan 31 Jan '08

31 Jan '08

I have a Centos 4 box that has been updated all the way to 4.6 without using the centosplus repository. Now I want to use the centosplus repository for Centos 4 to get the latest LAMP, mod_perl, perl and other perl modules so that I can install rt 3.6.6 and its necessary modules. However, for some reason, the latest perl package in the centosplus repository does not appear on the radar when I run yum check-update. Has anybody ran into this and get around the problem? Contents of yum.conf and Centos-Base.repo and output from yum check-update follow.

VMWare 6.02 and Linux screen saver?
by Scott Ehrlich 31 Jan '08

31 Jan '08

I have a user who freshly installed CentOS on their desktop. They also installed VMWare 6.02. When they click the mouse on their Linux desktop, the screen saver properly activates. But, when they click the mouse in their VMWare session, the Linux screen saver never activates. This has been tried for both VMWare Player and Workstation. I don't know if it makes any difference, but the VMWare Guest OS is Windows XP w/SP2. Thanks for any insight. Scott

adaptec 2100S drivers
by Mark Weaver 31 Jan '08

31 Jan '08

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, I've got a server that I'm rebuilding and I've been given an Adaptec 2100S single channel scsi card to use. Problem is I can't find drivers for CentOS 4 anywhere. So far I've tried the adaptec drivers on the install CD but when it comes time to use disc druid it doesn't see the array that I've setup. don't know if it matters, but I've got the CDROM on IDE0 port and nothing on IDE1 port. Are there drivers for this scsi card anywhere? thanks, - -- Mark "If you have found a very wise man, then you've found a man that at one time was an idiot and lived long enough to learn from his own stupidity." ============================================== Powered by CentOS5 (RHEL5) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: GnuPT 2.5.8.1 by EQUIPMENTE.DE iD8DBQFHoNHkXIpLU+e4OpgRAgltAKCVRlOlrtXSHz4ptqeEVV58rGsEDACgkwzN f1RNeKUBfq8AaISTe5KFIPM= =+MVB -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Where is gpg-agent?
by Anne Wilson 31 Jan '08

31 Jan '08

The only obstacle now to running this box as the mail server is that I do read and send mail on it occasionally, while working on something. I need gpg-agent, but can't find how to get it. Is it merged into another package, or do I simply have to look at other repositories? Anne

ISCSI help
by Plant, Dean 31 Jan '08

31 Jan '08

I am fairly new to ISCSI and SAN technology but having recently invested in the technology I am trying to find out exactly what can and can not be manipulated, filesystem wise, without requiring a reboot. I am using the inbuilt software ISCSI initiator and multipathing in CentOS 5.1. My steps so far. Create 10GB volume on SAN # iscsiadm -m session -R # fdisk /dev/mapper/mpath0 # kpartx -a /dev/mapper/mpath0 # mke2fs -j /dev/mapper/mpath0p1 # mount /dev/mapper/mpath0p1 /test-mount <--works fine to here--> Now I want to extend the volume on the SAN to 15GB run fdisk and use resize2fs to extend the filesystem, is this possible without a reboot? Currently, I don't seem to be able to get fdisk to see the new disk size after extending the volume. I know this can be done using LVM if I created 2 volumes rather than extending but I am curious to know if it can be done without LVM. Any other tips about what can be done with ISCSI would be welcome. Thanks Dean
