mod_gnutls on Centos 4
by David Hrbáč 28 Nov '07

28 Nov '07

Hi, as you might know I have created mod_gnutls for CentOS4 a few months ago. http://fs12.vsb.cz/hrb33/el4/hrb/stable/i386/RPMS/repodata/repoview/mod_gnu… http://fs12.vsb.cz/hrb33/el4/hrb/stable/i386/RPMS/repodata/repoview/gnutls-… http://fs12.vsb.cz/hrb33/el4/hrb/stable/i386/RPMS/repodata/repoview/gnutls-… http://fs12.vsb.cz/hrb33/el4/hrb/stable/i386/RPMS/repodata/repoview/gnutls-… I'd like to ask if someone is using it? It seems to me that it's not able to handle higher load. When user hits F5 there are a few httpd processes running the full cpu. Strace shows nothing, server-status marks them "reading". :o( It seems to me that when user breaks/stops the request httpd breaks. Any experiences? Thanks, David

Help with file descriptor
by Guy Boisvert 28 Nov '07

28 Nov '07

Hi all! I have a problem with CentOS 4.4 and Communigate Pro 5.0.9. As our user number grows, we are seeing "too many files open" error messages in Communigate logs. I spoke with Communigate tech support and they asked me to increase the number of file descriptors which i did. I put 128000 as a script i made to check Communigate open files reported as high as 99000. As i checked the Communigate log file, it reported that it "sees" 1024 "available" file descriptors. Reporting that to Communigate tech support, the guy answered: "CommuniGate gets this number via getdtablesize() system call. Probably in CentOS the table has a fixed size so you need to recompile the kernel to expand it. Try upgrading CentOS to 4.5 (or whatever later version is available) " I'm a little afraid of upgrading the server right away, i don't want to worsen the problem. Or maybe it's safe to do it. I dunno. Is there anybody on the list that can comment on what the Communigate tech support guy said about the "getdtablesize" thing ? Thanks in advance! Guy Boisvert

Mail Server Install
by Jun Salen 28 Nov '07

28 Nov '07

Hi Friends, I am planning to upgrade my mail server from CentOS4.5 to CentOS5. By this, I also planned to replace my postfix mail server with Scalix although the community edition limit me to just 25 premium user, I think it is suffice for us with the remaining user as standard user (with approx. <> 100 users total). Is there a catch on using Scalix based on your experience. I see that Horde is available from Dag's repository, do you think it is better for me to use that instead? Is there anyone using it that may share their gotchas and good points from their experience for me to prepare and be ready. Thank you in advance. junji aisalen.wordpress.com Linux Registered User #253162 Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com

Some would say Fedora users are nuts. I think you perfectly described my experience with Fedora on my laptop (HP zv6015). I managed to coerce Fedora 4 onto it (even the install was wonky until I learned about nofb). I got tired of chasing the latest Fedora release and moved to CentOS 5 when it was released. I built a custom kernel for a while so the card reader would work until enough fixes got back ported that the stock kernel would read the SD card my camera uses. Now everything (sort of) "just works (TM)". I say "sort of" because I'm still running ndiswrapper since every time I've tried the bcm43xx kernel module it hasn't worked with my WAP. With CentOS 5 the laptop seems to be as stable as my desktop. About the only time I ever boot the Windows XP Home partition is if there's a BIOS update or something that HP doesn't release any other way. Can't imagine torturing myself with XP.

Re: [CentOS] Adobe products under Linux?
by Ross S. W. Walker 27 Nov '07

You could try crossover office, it's reported to work with several windows apps from adobe. Photoshop I believe works. -Ross -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)centos.org <centos-bounces(a)centos.org> To: centos(a)centos.org <centos(a)centos.org> Sent: Fri Nov 23 17:03:10 2007 Subject: [CentOS] Adobe products under Linux? Also sent to Codeweavers - [what is this list's insights?] I have a 32 GB, dual quad-core desktop machine and was considering 32-bit Windows XP w/SP2, but discovered it only supports up to 4 GB RAM, so that idea is shot. Next in line is 64-bit CentOS 5. The major need for Windows would be very active use of Adobe Acrobat 8, Photoshop CS3, and Illustrator CS3. There may also be the need to copy/transfer information among Matlab, Mathematica, and Microsoft-based applications, from Office 2003 to the above-mentioned ones. Do you support these, and how complete is your product line for 64-bit CentOS 5? Based on your answer, I'll know whether to go with a virtual machine-based solution, which means a Windows VM, or can remain Linux-only, with your solution. Thank you very much.
