changing then main menu icon
by Frank Cox 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

What icon do I need to change or substitute (or what file should I edit) to get a custom icon for the Centos 5 main menu? I found a whole stack of "shadowman-*" icons, but nothing that says anything about "main menu". -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com

CentOS Plus PHP5 upgrade.
by David Mackintosh 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

Hi Folks, I have some users who have a 64-bit CentOS 4.x install (current), which was installed with @Everything and then some annoying packages strategically removed (mrtg, pegasus*, mailman...) and they have decided they have a need for php5. I find on the web this instruction for doing this: http://www.centos.org/centos/4/centosplus/Readme.txt So I try to do this, and I get: # rpm -e php-domxml # yum --enablerepo=centosplus upgrade php* [...] --> Processing Dependency: php = 4.3.9-3.22.9 for package: php-pear --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Missing Dependency: php = 4.3.9-3.22.9 is needed by package php-pear So I try to remove this blocking package: # rpm -e php-pear error: Failed dependencies: php-pear is needed by (installed) php-4.3.9-3.22.9.x86_64 I try to get cute: # rpm -e --force php-pear rpm: only installation, upgrading, rmsource and rmspec may be forced (Heh.) So I can't be the first person to go down this road. Can anyone provide a hint as to how to get out of the hole I've dug for myself? Thanks for your time. -- /\oo/\ / /()\ \ David Mackintosh | dave(a)xdroop.com | http://www.xdroop.com

Why glibc-profile doesn't show up in Centos 5 ???
by Robinson Tiemuqinke 26 Sep '07

26 Sep '07

Hi, Anyone know what are the reasons behind that glibc-profile packages doesn't come with Centos 5 distribution which has version 2.5 glibc? Some colleagues around have been asking for the glibc profiling functions to be available continuously... I could change the glibc source RPM/spec file to disable '--disable-profile' option and recompile the core glibc packages. But I am not sure whether this is the correct way. Nevertheless, the glibc-profile may have a unknown strong reason not to show up in Centos 5. Please help. Thanks. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Need a vacation? Get great deals to amazing places on Yahoo! Travel. http://travel.yahoo.com/

parted - is there a problem
by Gregory P. Ennis 25 Sep '07

25 Sep '07

Everyone, I recently added a 300gig Seagate sata drive on a Centos 5.0 and have a couple of questions. The drive was recognized with the device as /dev/sdc. The system came with some SCCI drives that are labeled as /dev/sda and /dev/sdb. I was surprised that the sata drives used sdc. Are the sata drives considered more like SCCI or IDE drives? The real problem occurred when I tried to partition the drive with parted. I used he command mkpart to form one partition of 300 gigs which created /dev/sdc1, and then after 'quiting' parted used mkfs.ext3 to create a file system. Everything went as expected with the ability to mount the file system and copy files into it. However, /dev/sdc1 disappeared when I rebooted. After the reboot /dev/sdc1 was missing and CentOs obviously could not recognize the partition. The error is probably related to my lack of experience with parted so I tried it 2 other times with the same results. I finally gave up and used fdisk which has worked without a problem. By way of observation I could not find a 'write to disk' command in parted like what is present in fdisk. Is there a problem with parted or I am just lacking in knowledge of some of the parted commands. Certainly could not find any write like statements in the man pages or the info pages. Are there others of you that use parted? What did I do wrong? Greg Ennis

CentOS 4.5 system doesn't boot after installing latest updates
by Alfred von Campe 25 Sep '07

25 Sep '07

Today I decided to install all the latest updates (including the -06 kernel). The "yum update" seems to have run just fine (no errors), but when I rebooted the system it just sits there with the word "GRUB" in the upper left hand corner. I booted from the CentOS 4.5 install CD into rescue mode, did a "chroot /mnt/sysimage" and reinstalled grub and the latest kernel, but it still gets stuck in the same place. It's not that I can't boot the new kernel; I can't even get to the grub screen! Any ideas? I am totally stuck at the moment... Alfred

CentOS-5 Hardware Probe
by James B. Byrne 25 Sep '07

25 Sep '07

I installed CentOS-5 on a test machine, a P4 1.8 Ghz Compaq Evo D510 series. This was a clean install onto a new disk drive and everything went well. After updating with YUM and installing Postgresql, Rails for Ruby, Firefox-2 and Thunderbird I shutdown and restarted the system several times without incident. I then pulled the CD-ROM and replaced it with an LG-DVD DVD-RAM/RW device. I also swapped the PS/2 Kb and mouse for USB versions. When I rebooted the system I entered the bios setup and reconfigured for the new device. However, subsequently, Centos bootup has now entered an endless loop. Pluse neither the USB nor the PS/2 kb seem to work after a certain point. On Centos-4 I recall doing exactly the same thing and all that happened was that Kudzu ran during the boot procedure, prompted for the configuration changes and everything went on swimingly. I just verified this behaviour by swapping in a CentOS-4.5 disk on this machine and Kudzu came up, reported on all the config changes, accepted the responses and it booted with the DVD and USB devices installed What is happening in CentOS-5? Is there no hardware probe at startup? Is there some switch that I need to set? I can boot from the CD-ROM on this machine using the LG-DVD but not from the hard drive. Switching back to the original CD-ROM device did not alleviate the problem either so I am at a loss as to what is happening. As I am a digest subscriber the favour of a direct copy of any reply to the list is requested. Sincerely, -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

Samba and TCPWrappers
by Bob Chiodini 25 Sep '07

25 Sep '07

Good Morning, I have a Centos 4.5 (x86_64) server running samba to share data with windows users. We've been going through a security audit and the following log entries were noted: [2007/09/24 09:37:29, 0] rpc_server/srv_util.c:get_alias_user_groups(206) get_alias_user_groups: gid of user bendew doesn't exist. Check your /etc/passwd and /etc/group files [2007/09/24 09:37:29, 1] rpc_server/srv_util.c:get_domain_user_groups(298) get_domain_user_groups: primary gid of user [nobody] is not a Domain group ! get_domain_user_groups: You should fix it, NT doesn't like that [2007/09/24 09:37:29, 0] rpc_server/srv_util.c:get_alias_user_groups(206) get_alias_user_groups: gid of user nobody doesn't exist.

Check your /etc/passwd and /etc/group files I am using tcpwrappers and have blocked the subnets that should not access my server. The IP of the auditor is within one of the blocked subnets, but still seems to be getting through. Is samba integrated with tcpwrappers. ldd smbd does not show a reference to libwrap, should it? Bob...
