yum through a squid proxy
by Dave 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

Hello, I've got a centos5 box that is now behind a what was transparent squid proxy. The proxy now has it's own dedicated ip and uses proxy basic authentication. I've got a firewall that redirects all outgoing port 80 traffic to that ip so anyone wishing access goes proxied. The problem is yum on my centos5 can't retrieve the .xml files for the various yum repositories. In the squid access.log on the router i'm seeing invalid request method. This means that the box isn't yet talking proxy and is still trying to go through direct. To my yum.conf file i added lines similar to these: # The proxy server - proxy server:port number proxy=http://mycache.mydomain.com:3128 # The account details for yum connections proxy_username=yum-user proxy_password=qwerty I tried port 80 on that proxy line with the same results. Telneting to that ip/port works fine, iptables isn't blocking it. On the firewall i added the yum-user to the password file and used squid's ncsa_auth program to confirm the username/password combination, output was a simple "ok". On the centos5 box i did a service network restart, which didn't work, yum update gave me the same error. Any suggestions welcome. Thanks. Dave.

Multiple WAN link -- CentOS Suitability
by Raymond M. Subasic 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

My situation: I have a cable modem (COMCAST 6Mbit d/l) and am about to also have DSL (Verizon 3 Mbit d/l). I was thinking of using CentOS (4.4, 4.5, or 5??) as a router/dhcp server/firewall for my home network consisting of 3 to 6 computers at any given time. I seek the wisdom of the members of this list on the following issues: -- Is CENTOS a good direction to go? I do not mind manually configuring things or installing lots of packages, and am doing this as both a learning experience for myself and proof of concept for a customer. -- Is it possible/hard/easy/trivial to share the load between the two connections? Have either link fail and things still work correctly? -- I plan to build a box for this job - looking for general recommendations of how much horsepower (mem/disk space, etc) is required -- What are the implications of two pipes for incoming connections such as DynDNS based remote desktop or VNC, or web server, FTP, etc The basic hardware layout I see is 3 nics, 1 GB RAM, 60 GB disk space. 1 NIC for each WAN port, 1 NIC for my local net, some recent CPU. I have been browsing through the "Linux Advanced Routing & Traffic Control HOWTO," but am still not on top of how to get done what I'm looking for. I understand that there are probably products that I could buy to do this, but my preference is to do it myself. Sorry if my questions are too basic. Please feel free to tell me off if so. Thanks. rsubasic

vlc on centos 4.5
by Jerry Geis 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

Has anyone successfully gotten vlc to install on centos 4.X? I saw other posts on using rpms from places but I dont want to go there. I have downloaded from videolan ftp site the following: mpeg2dec libmad libfaad ffmpeg vlc I have configured and installed each package above. When I run vlc (to connect to a linksys wvc200 camera that outputs MP4 video) I get the message main decoder error: no suitable decoder module for fourcc `MP4S'. So I am assuming I dont have something correct yet with vlc. Just wondering if someone else has built vlc and would mind sharing how they did it. Jerry

Looking for a WebDav sync client
by Robert Moskowitz 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

I am looking for a webdav tool much like wget. And it has to maintain timestamps (Cadaver does not, or at least I have not figured out how). There is a whole big WebDav server now of all (almost all) of IEEE 802.11 presentations (not the draft docs) and webdav is the access method....

Managing recompiled packages?
by Niki Kovacs 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

Hi, I'm using Centos 5.0 on my desktop, and I'm very happy with it. One question bothers me. I rebuilt a handful of apps, for example K3B to enable MP3 audio, or libshout and mpd, to enable streaming audio. Now what happens if these get updated? I guess the new version will squash my personal version. Is there a way to prevent these packages from being updated? Or how should I handle these? Cheers, Niki Kovacs

Recommended REPO Setup for Desktop on Cos5
by John Thomas 19 Jul '07

19 Jul '07

CentOS is simply great. I use it as my main desktop. I use VMWare clients for any "special needs" software. I am struggling a bit with the plethora of repos and looking for some advice. Would you opine with detail on the best repo setup for a desktop CentOS 5? Comments: rpmforge provides fine rpms. kbsingh, google, adobe, kde-redhat, CentOS-Testing , CentOS-fastrack, epel, ATRPMs also provide fine RPMs. epel seems to have some stuff that I have not found on the others (like gnucash), but enabling epel worries me about conflicts with rpmforge et al. I recalling hearing about priorities and protectbase yum plugins. My thinking is someone has mastered these issues and I could copy their setup so I could do a "yum search whatever" a "yum provides whatever", "yum update", etc without having to enable/disable repos or includepkgs/exclude packages in the repo (i.e., "just work"). I realize one size won't fit all, but your recommendations/thoughts are appreciated. -- Sincerely, John Thomas
