GUI Login Screen for CentOS 5
by Mark Snyder 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

I installed CentOS using the option for a GUI Server with GRUB and GNOME. When it boots it stops at a text login screen, which is not desirable in our setup. I want it to start at the GUI login screen and not have to press 'Ctrl Alt F7' to bring this screen up. I thought this was controlled by /etc/inittab but it is setup correctly for runlevel 5. How can I correct this setup? Mark

Madwifi just seems to work in Centos 5
by Robert Moskowitz 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

I have not installed the madwifi specific kernel stuff (kdml and hal-kdml) from atrpms. I have installed with wpa rpms. And my Atheros card is working with almost no work on my part (other than runing wpa_supplicant as a deamon). Nice!

diagnosing strange crash/hang
by Gordon McLellan 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

This morning I get a call that a server is down. The server in question is a vmware guest, windows 2003 advanced. The host is vmware server 1.01, running on centos 4.4 x64 on a poweredge 2950. The server has 16g of ram and a quadcore cpu, storage is provided by a perc 5/i, raid 1 across two 146gb sas drives. I was able to ssh into the host. After trying to ping the guest, and trying to connect to vmware via the management console, I decided to restart the vmware service. so I type service vmware restart. it hung on "shutting down virtual machines". I was able to ctrl-c out, and decided to manually kill the vmware processes. after killing all the vmware stuff, I did a service vmware start. I get an error "cannot touch /etc/vmware/locations: read only file system" /etc is part of /, which mount claimed was mounted RW so I try cat /var/log/messages and get nothing so I tell the machine to reboot (remotely). of course, it doesn't come back up on its own, so I drive to the location. the machine is running, but sitting at a black screen. I don't know what state it was in, so did a forced turn off. turning it back on, it proceeded to boot normally. it had a slight pause while it ran fsck on / but other than that, no errors. the vm's restarted normally, /var/log/messages is back, but has no entries between June 15 and when I rebooted it the 2nd time on June 18. any ideas on where I should start looking? is there some way to read array status from a Perc controller under linux? any suggestions will be appreciated! thanks Gordon

mounting an lvm partition via a USB adapter
by Robert Moskowitz 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

I am trying to mount this (my old hard drive) from my Centos 5 install as a USB drive so I can copy files over. I have made the change to max_luns so that I can have more than one drive on a USB drive. The first partition, /dev/sda1 mounts automatically as /boot_ The second partition, /dev/sda2 is the one I really want and it is an lvm partition. When I am booted from this drive (as the installed IDE drive, not as a usb drive) has for its /etc/fstab: # This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01 / ext3 defaults 1 1 LABEL=/boot /boot ext3 defaults 1 2 none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0 none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol02 /home ext3 defaults 1 2 none /proc proc defaults 0 0 none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 swap swap defaults 0 0 But I do not see any /dev/Vol... when I boot from my Centos 5 drive (oh, I have labeled the lvm partitions on that drive to start with Centos5 so that its labels are different from my Centos 4 drive lablels). What mount command do I use?

CentOSplus Postfix with mysql/pgsql
by Brent DiNicola 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

The lasted version of Postfix in the OS for 4.5 add a .1 to the rpm version which makes it newer than the CentOSPlus version and hence replaces it, any intent to update the 4.5 CentOSPlus package or should I roll my own with mysql included? 4.5 OS Version: postfix-2.2.10-1.1.el4.i386.rpm 4.4/5 CentOSPlus Version: postfix-2.2.10-1.RHEL4.2.mysql_pgsql.c4.i386.rpm Thanks Brent -- Brent DiNicola/Whitewolf The Whitewolf of Imrryr <centos .AT. elric.net> http://www.elric.net Disclaimer: Any opinions expressed here are from my dog.

OT - IP Tables - forwarding to localhost
by first last 18 Jun '07

18 Jun '07

Hi, I am trying to set up a firewall rule so calls to old_mailserver:25 get redirected to localhost:25. I have seen quite a few rules and none seem to work. I have tried with the firewall enabled (configured to allow smtp) and disabled, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. One of the commands I have been using is: /sbin/iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -p tcp -d old_mailserver_ip/32 --dport 25 -j REDIRECT --to 127.0.0.1:25 Am I missing anything?
