Central file server advice please
by John Bowden 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

Hi List I have a Gygabyte GA-7N400 PRO2 with a 2.6 mHz Athlon cpu. I want to set up a central file storage for 2/3 users using 6/7 machines. A mixture of win2k, XP and various Linux distros (my home network). It will be used to store files, (docs, music and DVD ) for all of these machines, print server, (two ink-jets), mail server and later on a myth tv set up. Would SAMBA be the best option for the file and print serving ? The mother board has 2 X IDE channels, 2 X IDE channels with raid and 2 X SATA raid channels, that's up to 10 hard drive devices. The IDE raid chip is a GigaRaid IT8212F chipset. It supports raid 0 or raid 1 and raid 0 + 1 and JBOD. The SATA raid is a Silicon Image Sil3512. It supports Raid 0 or 1. Would I get better speed performance using the chips to manage the raid or using software raid? Oh and I will be using the CentOS 5 install dvd. Any advice from the list would be appreciated.

OpenSSH multiple private key question
by Von Landfried 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

I am using CentOS 4.5 with OpenSSH_3.9p1 and I am curious if anyone has a solution for this scenario. I have several pub/priv keys that I use for various tasks/reasons. My issue is that I want to have 2 private keys stored in ~/.ssh/ and I am not sure the best way to accomplish that. Currently I am using ssh-agent, and it works fine for manually performing tasks. I was curious if there is a simple way to have multiple private keys stored in the same ~/.ssh/ directory without using ssh-agent? Thanks for reading. -Von

mdadm problem.
by David Mackintosh 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

So I'm trying to RAID-1 this system which has two identical disks installed in it, and it isn't working for some reason. I started by doing a CentOS-4 install on /dev/sda1 as root, and with /dev/sda2 as my swap. I finish the install, yum update, and then I want to make the mirrors. I copy the partition table from one disk to the other: # sfdisk -d /dev/sda | sfdisk /dev/sdb I create my metadevices: # mdadm -Cv -l1 -n2 /dev/md1 /dev/sdb1 missing # mdadm -Cv -l1 -n2 /dev/md2 /dev/sdb2 missing I create my filesystems: # mkfs.ext3 /dev/md1 # mkswap /dev/md2 I change the /etc/fstab to use /dev/md1 for / and /dev/md2 for swap. I change the /etc/grub.conf to use /dev/md1 for the root= parameter on my kernel. I build myself a new initrd for the kernel I want to boot. I copy the contents of / over to the one-armed mirror: # cd / # mnt /dev/md1 /mnt/md1 # tar cfpl - . | ( cd /mnt/md1 ; tar xfp -) # umount /mnt/md1 # sync I run grub just in case: # grub > device (hd0) /dev/sda > root (hd0,0) > setup (hd0) I reboot, expecting that the system will find /dev/md1 and use it as its root... but it doesn't. Digging around in hobbled mode (changing the root= parameter in grub to /dev/sda1 instead of /dev/md1) shows that /dev/md1 doesn't get assembled, therefore it doesn't get mounted. Can anyone tell me what I've done wrong? -- /\oo/\ / /()\ \ David Mackintosh | dave(a)xdroop.com | http://www.xdroop.com

General question about PHP - continued with mod_python
by Wei Yu 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

Oops, I just missed the python part. Does mod_python have similar options? Or how to stop other users to run python scripts in some directories?

General question about PHP
by Wei Yu 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

Hello, Is that possible to disable running of PHP on certain directories? I am running a server which provides personal homepage service. However, not every user are familiar with security, some may upload some PHP scripts with bugs/holes. I do not want them to be executed on the server. I can enable the safe_mode, but I have some other PHP scripts which need safe_mode to be disabled. Any suggestions? Regards, Wei Yu

hosting panel
by Michael Kress 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

Hi there, what's your favorite (OS) hosting panel for centos5 ? What's most interesting for me is the usability by others i.e. users who don't know the tool very much, so it has to be very simple. Second is of course security. Greetings & TIA Michael -- Michael Kress, kress(a)hal.saar.de http://www.michael-kress.de / http://kress.net P E N G U I N S A R E C O O L
