ncurses admin tool over ssh
by James D. Parra 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

Hello, Just installed CentOS 5 64bit. I come from a Suse environment and I am curious if there is a ncurses type admin tool similar to Yast? I don't want to run X windows on this server. Many thanks and I'm looking forward to learning about and using this Linux distro. Regards, James

Is there a Centos 5.1 beta?

And if so where can I get information of what is being fixed/upgraded/added/deleted? Of course right now I only care about my bluetooth woes. ;)

Help with CentOS 5.0 domU install
by Arik Raffael Funke 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

Hi, I am trying to install a centos 5.0 domU via virt-manager (or alternatively as described in the centos howtos). Anaconda boots up fine, asks for the language, then for the installation medium. Here my problems begin. I am trying to install via nfs, so I enter my IP details and nfs server details, but after confirming the nfs details, anaconda barely tries to contact the nfs server and instead spits out following error message right away: Error: That directory can not be mounted from the server. I have exported a centos DVD via nfs. The DVD is good, the export also. Also my entire setup seems ok, because if I export a Fedora 7 DVD instead of the centos DVD, I can access the nfs share and install Fedora 7 without problems. ONLY WITH CENTOS I have this problem. It must be something with the centos installation kernel/image/anaconda installer imho. I have not found any reports describing this behaviour. Am I the first who has had this problem? How could I go about debugging what anaconda is doing / why it fails? I am completely out of ideas of what could be the cause of this problem and how I could get rid of it. Any hints? Many thanks, Arik

centosplus repo updates
by Dave 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

Hello, First of all thanks to the poster on the wiki for centosplus. I've configed it added include and exclude lines, do i need the centos-priority plugin? I want to enable centosplus to use the centosplus kernel and the centosplus webstack. Below are my base, updates, and centosplus repo definitions. I'm getting an error when i do a yum update that a dependency for postfix libmysql is not satisfied. I would have thought that would have been pulled in by the include mysql* option pulling in mysqlclient? Thanks. Dave.

semodule - global requirements not met
by Tony 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

I'm busy setting up amavisd-new on a CentOS 5.0 box - and believe I've got it working well enough that I can switch selinux enforcing back on again. I've done the usual- - grab a chunk of the audit.log that is relevant to all the actions that would be denied. - do 'cat audit.log | audit2allow -M amavis' to generate the module - amavis.te looks like: module amavis 1.0; require { class dir { add_name getattr read remove_name search write }; class file { create execute execute_no_trans getattr lock read rename unlink write }; class filesystem getattr; class lnk_file read; type amavis_t; type fs_t; type mqueue_spool_t; type sbin_t; type sendmail_exec_t; type var_lib_t; role system_r; }; allow amavis_t fs_t:filesystem getattr; allow amavis_t mqueue_spool_t:dir { add_name getattr read remove_name search write }; allow amavis_t mqueue_spool_t:file { create getattr lock read rename unlink write }; allow amavis_t sbin_t:lnk_file read; allow amavis_t sendmail_exec_t:file { execute execute_no_trans read }; allow amavis_t var_lib_t:dir search; - now I do 'semodule -i amavis.pp' to load the module- but instead of working I instead get this error: libsepol.print_missing_requirements: amavis's global requirements were not met: type/attribute amavis_t libsemanage.semanage_link_sandbox: Link packages failed semodule: Failed! Anyone know the next step I'm supposed to take to fix this? Previous modules I've made have just happily loaded at that point... Cheers, Tony

Searching an Scsi Controller for CentOS 5
by Olaf Mueller 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

Hello, does CentOs 5 supports an Adaptec AHA-2940W/2940UW scsi controller (pci)? Is this controller maybe supported by the aic7xxx driver? I want to install CentOS 5 on my desktop pc but the currently installed pci scsi controller for my scanners (drivers: 2x tmscsim, 1x advansys) are not supported by CentOS. So I am searching for something else. Thanks in advanced. regards Olaf
