Any SELinux gurus around?
by Ray Van Dolson 31 Jul '07

31 Jul '07

Hey all, I'm having some trouble getting PHP5 w/ CentOS 5 to connect to a remote MySQL server using the standard mysql_connect() call. Yes, MySQL libraries are installed along with php-mysql... The only way I can get it to work is to run setenforce Permissive, otherwise the connection fails. The annoying thing is that nothing at all shows up in my /var/log/messages file describing why SELinux is stopping this connection. If I run my script with the CLI php binary, it connects to the remote server fine, just not when executed via httpd. I tried running the following on my PHP script: chcon -u system_u -t httpd_sys_content_t test.php But still I cannot complete a connection until I put SELinux back in Permissive mode. Any tips? Why isn't SELinux sending a message to the logs (it does for other SElinux issues just fine)? TIA, Ray

Upgrade mode with kickstart
by Denis Machard 31 Jul '07

31 Jul '07

Helllo, I'll like to add rpms during a upgrade with kickstart installation. I specified the name of rpm in "%package" section but the rpm isn't installed. This feature isn't supported with CentOS 4.4 ? # Kickstart upgrade # Reboot after install reboot #cdrom lang en_US.UTF-8 langsupport --default=en_US.UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8 ..... %packages vsftpd ... Thanks in advance, Denis MACHARD

x86_64 rpms
by David Hrbáč 31 Jul '07

31 Jul '07

Hi, I'm preparing a new x86_64 build machine and I'm looking at installed rpms. I have found a lot of packages are marked i386 or i686. I have even found I have two version of package installed: glibc-2.3.4-2.36-i686 glibc-2.3.4-2.36-x86_64 What's the reason in duplicity and why not all packages are x86_64. Thanks in advance, David

Ham Radio s/w and CentOS? {including Echolink}
by Scott Ehrlich 31 Jul '07

31 Jul '07

I am going to present Linux to my ham radio club at some point in the next few months, and wanted to collect info on ham radio software, including options for echolink. Our repeater has an echolink connection, thus if I present the software available for it, it might perk up people's interests more. It would also be very helpful if the echlink applications offered proxy/firewall options so people at companies or at home that have networks that implement firewalls, can proxy out and still get on Echolink. Also, anyone know of a live-on-CD/DVD CentOS distribution that may include Echolink and/or other ham software? Thanks for any leads. Scott, WY1Z

CentOS Within VirtualPC 2007
by Robert Jackson 31 Jul '07

31 Jul '07

Trying to get CentOS 5 running under VirtualPC 2007. The installation seems to go OK until X server runs. After this the screen display goes horribly wrong. Does anyone know if this is an issue with v5 or something else. Also has anyone managed to get CentOS running properly (from the install) under VirtualPC 2007?
