by William Warren 28 Jan '08

28 Jan '08

I am running Centos 5 64 bit. For somer reason i cannot get the windows client to connect to the server. The port is set to 904 as per the install but when i try to connect to the server i get the error the machine is actively refusing it. I do not have a firewall on and the apache server and everything else is running. I can check the status webpage in my browser just fine. Any ideas? -- Registered Microsoft Partner My "Foundation" verse: Isa 54:17

by carlopmart 28 Jan '08

28 Jan '08

Hi all, I need to backup two xen server hosts with several lvm partitions to store xen guests data (all guests are para-virtualized CentOS guests). My intention it is to do a full backup of lvm2 partition where SO resides ( I don't have created lvm2 partitions with snapshot option). Will this procedure works? To backup - dd if=/dev/sysvol/vol01 of=backup.img to restore on another xen host with different name on lvm2 volumes: - dd if=backup.img of=/dev/xenhostvol/xenguestvol01 Mnay thanks. -- CL Martinez carlopmart {at} gmail {d0t} com

No sound after hibernate
by Olaf Mueller 28 Jan '08

28 Jan '08

Hello, if I hibernate my notebook, suspend to disk in package hibernate-tuxonice-1.97-1cubbi2, with CentOS 5 and Kde 3.5.8 the sound isn't working any more after waking it up. So I try to disable the sound modules in /etc/hibernate/blacklisted-modules, but this failes with a 'Some modules failed to unload' error message. Also 'rmmod MODULNAME' failed with a 'is in use' error message. # hibernate Some modules failed to unload: snd_hda_intel snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec snd_mixer_oss snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec snd_pcm snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec snd_pcm snd_timer snd_mixer_oss snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec snd_pcm snd_timer snd snd_mixer_oss snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec snd_pcm snd_timer snd soundcore snd_hda_intel snd_hda_codec snd_pcm snd_page_alloc What is the recommended procedure to disable sound, unload all the sound modules and reload them after hibernation? Thank you very much! regards Olaf

by Sobari Tanuwijaya 28 Jan '08

28 Jan '08

Dear All, If I want make a lan users (with private IP) can access the internet just after passing the verification, what options do I have? What I want is: * If I user want to access the internet * He (must) run the browser * whatever the address he typed on the address bar, he will be brought to the verification location, which will be 'force' him to enter his username and password * if he passed the verification the internet access is available for him, but if not the internet keep unavailable for him. The method will be the for all users, either he use the wire or wireless connection. Will the iptables help me to solve this? How? Thanks in advance for the help - Tanu -

WPA question
by fred smith 27 Jan '08

27 Jan '08

HI I admit up front that I know just enough about wireless networking to know that I don't know much at all about it. That said, I'm hoping someone can help me learn a little bit... Specifically, could a laptop running Centos 5.1 be expected to (be able to) connect to a wireless access point using WPA2 security settings? I don't know if WPA depends on hardware support, or if it'll work on any ole machine. Nor do I know what is involved in making it happen. Clues would be appreciated.

Mailing list replies and Evolution
by Brian Schueler 27 Jan '08

27 Jan '08

Hi, I wanted to reply messages (e.g. to the cross-build-env in centos-devel) but my replies get posted as a new thread. I'm using Emulution 2.8 and I think Evolution eats the in-reply-to information. Is there anyone who also uses Evolution (especially in conjunction with a Scalix imap server)? So please tell me the right settings to acting not so disturbingly. Thanks. Brian.
