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

seeing which IP is your DHCP server
by Rogelio Bastardo 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

If I am on a CentOS box (or any other nix box, I guess), what is the easiest way to easily see the dhcp server? (Like in MS Windows, one can run "ipconfig /all" and see which IP is the DHCP server)

IHC7 RAID-1 or Kernel Software RAID-1?
by tony＠softins.clara.co.uk 20 Jul '07

20 Jul '07

I'm just setting up a SuperMicro system which has twin SATA disks on an Intel IHC7 RAID-capable controller. The system came with Fedora 5 pre-installed, which I will be removing and replacing with CentOS 4.5. But before doing so, I've been having a look at how the original vendor configured it. When I've built systems previously, I've disabled any RAID controller and used kernel software RAID-1, set up per-partition, and this has worked well. This system is currently set up with hardware RAID enabled, which is detected by the kernel device mapper. I can see what it has found using "dmraid" with -b, -r and -s. A single physical volume was created on the mapped RAID-1 device, and then logical volumes created on that. My question is: which kind of configuration will generally give me better performance? To use the IHC7 RAID-1 as currently set up, or to use Linux software RAID-1 as I am used to doing? Any other reasons to choose one over the other? Thanks in advance for any insights.

quick question on machine name
by Jerry Geis 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

I have a box I just installed centos 4.5 on. The name of the machine in /etc/hosts is TomSlick.xyz.com TomSlick (for example). the name of the machine in /etc/sysconfig/network HOSTNAME=TomSlick.xyz.com Note both are upper case: Yet when I login as root the prompt is showing me tomslick in lower case not a combo upper lower. I have grepped /etc and below for tomslick and cannot find why this machine name is not a combo of upper and lower case. I have never ran into this before. Where is this??? THanks, Jerry
