Can't get ipw2200 to work in CentOS 5 on Dell laptop
by andy.allen＠virgin.net 10 Aug '07

10 Aug '07

I've installed ipw2200-firmware-3.0-3.nodist.rf from RPMForge using yum OK. I've loaded the ipw modules with /sbin/modprobe ipw2200 and then /sbin/lsmod | grep ipw which gives: ipw2200 136873 0 ieee80211 33417 1 ipw2200 However, when I run system-config-network I don't see Intel Coporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG (eth1) in the list of adapters. Also, when I type the following command # dmesg | grep ipw I get this message: ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.2.0kmprq ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2006 Intel Corporation usbcore: registered new driver ipwtty drivers/usb/serial/ipw.c: IPWireless tty driver v0.3 I've had loads of help so far from the CentOS list, for which I'm really grateful, but don't seem to be much nearer to getting wireless networking on my Dell Inspiron laptop - any more help much appreciated.

inexpensive / reasonably priced workstation / server development box
by Robert - elists 10 Aug '07

10 Aug '07

We are testing some simple low bandwidth video and audio broadcasting using real server and client softwares. So, for quick check and simplicity, we were plunking along TESTING on an 3.2GHz XP box and I noticed frames were getting dropped on the broadcast just for resizing a window on the screen during the session. Talk about totally lame... I know this can be a big deal and start conflicting opinions yet I need some experienced perspective please? Can anyone chime in on what they use or what they would buy if they were going to have a workstation box for development that could double as test server and have good high speed storage and excellent video and audio etc etc Im thinking of a box that does audio and video development, can easily handle virtualization, and of course do general work apps plus setting up various server processes for testing whether intranet or internet etc etc It can be premade like specific dell or hp (please list component choices for clarity) OR A hand built box with specific list of components that Now, I know this has been done in magazines with great expense, and even with lower expense, yet I trust the list more than a magazine that wants to sell me advertising etc Thanks in advance - rh

FSCK
by Dan Dansereau 10 Aug '07

10 Aug '07

Hello I have a newbie question, given a centos 5 installation, An 5 very large disk arrays ( 2.5Tbytes each ) - Is there a way to suspend or stop the fsck during the boot up? The system seems to pick the most inopportune time to decide to reach the check count limit... and with this many disks, a reboot takes several hours... which is an eternity when your boss is looking over your shoulders for data right now! A ^c worked under version 4 - but has no affect on version 5 Thanks in Advance Dan

TRANSEPARENT PROXY WITH SQUID 2.6
by Indunil Jayasooriya 10 Aug '07

10 Aug '07

Hi, I am running squid as a TRANSEPARENT PROXY WITH SQUID 2.5 on CENTOS 4.5. Pls see below for squid.con file. http_port 3128 cache_mem 64 MB cache_dir ufs /var/spool/squid 100 16 256 cache_access_log /var/log/squid/access.log cache_log /var/log/squid/cache.log cache_store_log /var/log/squid/store.log # INSERT YOUR OWN RULE(S) HERE TO ALLOW ACCESS FROM YOUR CLIENTS # Example rule allowing access from your local networks. Adapt # to list your (internal) IP networks from where browsing should # be allowed acl mynet src 192.168.101.0/24 http_access allow mynet httpd_accel_host virtual httpd_accel_port 80 httpd_accel_with_proxy on httpd_accel_uses_host_header on I am ruunnig itables on the SAME BOX. I have added below rules for squid. #Redirecting traffic destined to port 80 to port 3128 iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -i eth2 --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3128 #For squid traffic to Accept iptables -A INPUT -i eth2 -d 192.168.101.254 -p tcp -s 192.168.101.0/24--dport 3128 -j ACCEPT Evrything works fine. Now, I am ging to upgrade CENTOS 4.5 to CENTOS 5. It comes with SQUID 2.6. But, squid.conf file in SQUID 2.6 has no below lines. httpd_accel_host virtual httpd_accel_port 80 httpd_accel_with_proxy on httpd_accel_uses_host_header on So, I want to know how to setup squid as a TRANSEPARENT PROXY, when it comes to SQUID 2.6. any idea? -- Thank you Indunil Jayasooriya

Postfix smtp freezing
by Jason Ross 10 Aug '07

10 Aug '07

Hey all, For the last 8 months I have been running a postfix / mail scanner setup based on Johnny Hughes' excellent tutorial. For the firs 7 months I have had no issues. This past month I have been having instances where the user gets an smtp error while trying to send email. Restarting the postfix service is all it takes to resolve this issue. The problem is that it has begun to occur more and more often. It is now up to once every day. I have found nothing unusual in the mail or messages logs. As I am an ultra newbie I am unsure of the next step to take to resolve this. I have search through the past messages on this list and can find nothing. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Jason Ross

new CentOS 5 as DNS server
by Ray Leventhal 10 Aug '07

10 Aug '07

Hi folks, As a breather from the "thread-now-wider-than-my-headers-window-in-thunderbird" conversation re: mixing repos, I have a question regarding a machine I'm about to put online. :) I run a web hosting company and my secondary (primary to the world) DNS box died from a massive rootkit/hack last night. It was running an old Slackware 9.1 installation and I will be completely cleaning those drives sector-by-sector. After which I'll be installing CentOS 5 on that hardware. As it will be a production server and this is my first foray into CentOS/SELinux in a production environment I was hoping to get a recommended list of what to include and, more specifically, what *not* to include from the distro CDs I will be doing a text based install, hoping to avoid the installation of X. Other than BIND and vsftpd, I don't think I need much. This machine will be pulling zone files from my primary web server and storing some archive files and backups for me. I'm dilligently R`ingTFMs, and will continue to.... I'd sure be appreciative of any jumpstart help and/or any pitfalls of which to be cognizant. TIA, ~Ray

limits.conf for file size on vsftpd
by Eric Solomon 10 Aug '07

10 Aug '07

I've read conflicting reports on whether this works or not ... I have a chrooted instance of vsftpd (using chroot_local_user=YES), with nopriv_user=vsftpd. I set the following in my limits.conf file: vsftpd hard fsize 50000 Now, I know this works in a shell. However, I want it to work for users uploading files, but they can upload away without issue. Has anyone actually got the limits.conf setting to take effect? I tried adding session required pam_limits.so to pam.d/vsftpd, but that doesn't seem to have any effect either.
