SATA disk issue
by Chuck Mattern 24 Oct '07

24 Oct '07

I'm in the process of upgrading the hardware in a small cluster based on CentOS 5 and Xen. The old hardware had dual ide disks, the new dual SATA. In both cases /boot and / are on RAID 1 partitions on each of the disks. The remainder of the disk is a RAID 0 with volume group laid on top. Here's my problem, when booting to Xen the box gets to the point of mounting filesystems for dom0, detects the logical volumes but cannot find an ext3 filesystem on md1 then panics. If booting straight to Linux all goes fine. The same configuration is running fine on the box with the ide disks. I'm wondering if the way Xen handles SATA (running as SCSI devices (sda, sdb, etc.) might be part of this, seems unlikely as the lv's in the vg are at least detected which would seem to be comparable to being able to detect an ext3 filesystem. FWIW I checked the grub.conf against the old config and there are no pertinent differences and I compared the initrd's pointed to by each stanza and they are identical (extracted to sepearate directories, did a diff on the directories, compared the init scripts from the old initrd and the new and found nothing not related to the additional hardware and all seeming to be in order. Other potentially significant differences: AMD Athlon 4400 dual core CPU vs. Intel 2.4 GHz 4 gigs RAM vs. 2 gig RAM ASUS M2A-VM system board vs. IBM NetVista Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Chuck

Upgrading PHP + MySQL on CentOS 3
by David Zentgraf 24 Oct '07

24 Oct '07

Hi, I have a CentOS 3 server that I need to update to MySQL 5 + PHP4. I downloaded and installed the MySQL client and server RPM packages for Red Hat 3, including the Shared Compatibility Libraries which provide /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.10, .12, .14 and .15, which seems to be the recommended way of upgrading a MySQL 3 installation. I then went on to recompile PHP 4.4.7, which worked fine. But my PHP installation is still using libmysqlclient.so.10, which does not play 100% correctly with the current MySQL 5 server. I'd need it to use libmysqlclient.so.15. Apparently /usr/lib/php4/mysql.so is linked to libmysqlclient.so.10. How do I update/replace/relink the php-mysql connector to have PHP talk to MySQL using the current client libraries? Any hints'd greatly appreciated. Cheers, Dav

Lan Kernel Problem
by Linux Man 23 Oct '07

23 Oct '07

I'm building a Linux box to act as Proxy/Router/Firewall. I'm using CentOS 4.5, with an "old" motherboard (Asus A8V-X), and two Ethernet NIC, based on a realtek chip, that's widely supported under 2.4 and later kernel (the cards were functioning excellent in another PC whit Fedora Core 1). CentOS detects the on board LAN, but not the other two, in fact, knoppix 5.0.1 doesn't detect too (kernel 2.6.17), but, Knoppix 5.1.1 (kernel 2.6.19) detects all three cards. Do you have any idea why this behavior? Centos 5.0 detects all three too, but I don't now why, my firewall script (ipv4) doesn't work with this release. Now, thank you very much! Best Regards.

Samba, AD and non AD Machines
by Shawn Everett 23 Oct '07

23 Oct '07

Hi All, I have configured Samba 3.0.23 to work with Active Directory. Based on all the tests shown here: http://us3.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/unixclients.html#adssdm Things are working as expected. Most machines and users are working as expected. I do have some Windows machines on another subnet, NOT joined to the domain that are giving me grief. Going to Start->Run->\\ip.of.samba.server I get the following error: The format for the computer name is invalid I can ping the samba server without problems. Reviewing the Samba logs I see: "pam auth crap domain" messages in winbind.log In the machine.log file I see: [2007/10/23 03:05:17, 3] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(221) check_ntlm_password: Checking password for unmapped user [domain]\[acronis]@[COMPUTER] with the new password interface [2007/10/23 03:05:17, 3] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(224) check_ntlm_password: mapped user is: [domain]\[acronis]@[SORTER] [2007/10/23 03:05:17, 3] smbd/sec_ctx.c:push_sec_ctx(208) push_sec_ctx(0, 0) : sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 1 [2007/10/23 03:05:17, 3] smbd/uid.c:push_conn_ctx(345) push_conn_ctx(0) : conn_ctx_stack_ndx = 0 [2007/10/23 03:05:17, 3] smbd/sec_ctx.c:set_sec_ctx(241) setting sec ctx (0, 0) - sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 1 [2007/10/23 03:05:17, 3] smbd/sec_ctx.c:pop_sec_ctx(339) pop_sec_ctx (0, 0) - sec_ctx_stack_ndx = 0 [2007/10/23 03:05:17, 2] auth/auth.c:check_ntlm_password(319) check_ntlm_password: Authentication for user [acronis] -> [acronis] FAILED with error NT_STATUS_INVALID_COMPUTER_NAME [2007/10/23 03:05:17, 3] smbd/error.c:error_packet(146) error packet at smbd/sesssetup.c(99) cmd=115 (SMBsesssetupX) NT_STATUS_INVALID_COMPUTER_NAME Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

I'm trying to install Skype on a CentOS 4.4 system and I've followed the instructions on the Skype website at http://www.skype.com/download/skype/linux/repositories.html but when I run yum install skype it fails with a whole string of error messages, ending with Error: failure: RPMS/libsigc++20-2.0.17-1.el4.rf.i386.rpm from rpmforge: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. Has anybody managed to install skype successfully - if so, how please? Thanks, Andy

multipath using 2 NICs (or HBA?)
by Scott Moseman 23 Oct '07

23 Oct '07

I'm told that we cannot do Multipath I/O on our iSCSI SAN on RHEL with 2 network cards. I could use 1 network card, but need an HBA. Is this true? Do I need an HBA, or can I do Multipath using 2 NICs? We're running RHEL 4 and CentOS 4 and 5 servers on this network. I have been reading through the device-mapper documentation, but I have not found anything (unless I'm not clear on what they're saying). Eventually I will give it a try but I haven't had the time to fiddle so far. Thanks, Scott
