by Rogelio 03 Nov '07

I did a barebones install and unfortunately don't have "locate" installed. What do I need to install before this works?

Hello What is the default or recommended file-max in /proc/sys/fs/ ? I remember that having a large number of open files or sockets make system be unstable, and now that I am checking my server the file-max is about 386466 . Is opened sockets will be added to opened files as well. Thanks

help diagnosing tftp server on centos 5
by Jerry Geis 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

Hi all, I have a centos 5 box I have setup, current with updates. (I have done this many times on centos 4). I did the yum install tftp-server, changed the /etc/xinetd.d/tftp file as shown. # default: off # description: The tftp server serves files using the trivial file transfer \ # protocol. The tftp protocol is often used to boot diskless \ # workstations, download configuration files to network-aware printers, \ # and to start the installation process for some operating systems. service tftp { socket_type = dgram protocol = udp wait = yes user = root server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd server_args = -v -s /tftpboot disable = no per_source = 11 cps = 100 2 flags = IPv4 } Did the service xinetd restart. Now from another computer on the network I am trying manually "tftp IP -c get myfile" and nothing happens. /tftpboot permissions are: drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Oct 2 16:26 tftpboot the myfile is also world readable in that directory. I have disabled the iptables "service iptables stop". I ran "tcpdump port 69" to show me all tftp traffic an I see NOTHING when I manually run the tftp command above on another computer. The second computer can ssh into the server no problem. I can, on the server, to tftp localhost -c get myfile and that works fine. What or HOW can I determine why I cannot tftp from that machine? This seems so straight forward. Thanks, frustrated me... Jerry

Yum Problem
by Jun Salen 02 Nov '07

02 Nov '07

Hi, I have no problem running yum update inside the root prompt, but when running yum using sudo as logged-in as ordinary user and command the 'sudo yum update', I am having below error: Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/mirrors-rpmforge error was [Errno 4] IOError: <urlopen error (110, 'Connection timed out')> Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: rpmforge This happened even I try to export my proxy server since where using them to connect internet. This is in a newly installed CentOS5 box. I also try to issue 'yum clean metadata' and 'yum clean all' but the problem still persists. Can you please give me the clue on how to solve this.
