migrating files for centos virtualization, virtual disk no longer boots.
by Jerry Geis 28 Oct '07

28 Oct '07

All, I am playing with virtualization on centos 5. I took my old redhat 7 disks and created a 10GIG virtual disk, I installed redhat 7. Now I am trying to get the EXACT image copied off of my actual redhat 7 disk so that I know it is the same (including all patches, updates and OTHER things I did to it that I have forgotten about). I booted the redhat 7 image just fine at this point. I also copied it for backup so I dont have to install again. So on my centos 5 box I mounted the image with a loop command. mount -t ext3 -o loop,offset=32256 redhat7.img /mnt/image This works fine. Then I logged into the redhat 7 system and executed the command tar --exclude ./proc --exclude ./mnt --exclude ./sys --exclude ./dev -cvf - . | ssh root(a)192.168.1.8 "( cd /mnt/image ; tar xvpf -)" Where 192.168.1.8 is my centos 5 box and /mnt/image the mounted image. The copy seems to go fine. But after I do this when I try to virtualize the redhat7 image it stops at: GRUB When I copy the second image back on top of the first image it then boots again. So glad I made that copy of the image file. What is happening with the tar command that is messing up grub and keeping it from booting? Thanks, Jerry

Large scale Postfix/Cyrus email system for 100,000+ users
by Matt Shields 28 Oct '07

28 Oct '07

I'm trying to set up a large scale email system that supports 100,000+ IMAP accounts. We have an existing frontend web interface that does a lookup on a mysql db to figure out which IMAP server to connect to for each user. For the email infrastructure we have decided on Postfix and Cyrus. We have configured both to use mysql to get the virtual user information. Because of the way that the infrastructure is (biz reasons) we are not doing shared storage, we have numerous IMAP servers that we distribute accounts across. As we add more users, we image up a new IMAP server. For our business's scaling purposes this was the best plan. What I am having a problem is how do I get postfix to transfer the email to the particular IMAP server that the user account is on. I know that I need to use lmtp and transport, but all the examples I have seen show forwarding all email to 1 IMAP server. I would like Postfix to do a lookup for each mailbox and determine which IMAP server to deliver it to. Anyone have a working example that they could share? It would be greatly appreciated. thanks -matt

mp3 recorder?
by Scott Ehrlich 27 Oct '07

27 Oct '07

I have my tape deck connected to my PC's line-in port, but Audacity's unstable release is unable to pick up the audio, though when I select the proper device and play with the volume control in the app, the audio does change. What other mp3 capture programs do people use? My goal is to simply capture each side of a tape to mp3, then use Audacity to break each song to its own mp3 file. Thanks. Scott

Re: CentOS-5.0-x86_64-bin-DVD-ich9.iso.delta md5 mismatch

> WELCOME TO MY WORLD :D > (Hey, are the new foobar packages done, how about the xwyz packages) > Thanks, > JOhnny Hughes When you snip the rest of my post man that last request sounds really bad on its own. Sorry guys. I saw the "uploading the new DVD's" a few days ago and thought I would ask. I really do not want to put anyone out and please do not go through any trouble on my account. I would rather be contributing rather than asking. Like I said I had already moved to Fedora for the P5KC and for the P5K-VM I have been trying to duplicate what Dave is doing. But I never know if I am doing it right or what else am I screwing up by rolling only new kernel rpms. Perhaps that is the kind of questions I should be asking rather than ask if things are ready. Can you get away with taking new kernels from kernel.org and making rpms out of them to use with Centos 5.0 without it effecting anything else or having to upgrade anything else? Thanks again. btw - like I said in email last week at the start of this thread you never hear from me but your efforts maintaining Centos are greatly appreciated. Since I have had stable servers and anything I need is usually already found here without even asking. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
