Thanks - tried it and got this popup window: Could not open /dev/vmnet8: no such file or directory.Virtual device Ethernet0 will start disconnected. Do I just go ahead and mknod /dev/vmnet8 or is there more to it? Better, where is a good (and hopefully simple) reference for this? Thanks (again). mhr

smartd on Centos 4.4
by Dave 26 Mar '07

26 Mar '07

Hello, I'm running CentOS 4.4 and am getting an error from smartd. This machine has a single ide drive in it /dev/hda and i was getting a bootup error from smartd, so i uncommented the /dev/hda line in /etc/smartd.conf. The error persisted when i tried to restart smartd, i got a service restart failed and the below error. Any suggestions? On another unrelated subject i'm looking for an ncftp rpm for CentOS i didn't find one in the included repositories. Thanks. Dave.

RE: [CentOS] OpenOffice 2.1 with CentOS 4.4 x86_64 doesn't work

CORRECTION : I'm using CentOS 4.2 not 4.4 Following what I do. I have no error. OpenOffice doesn't start after this. I have installed the full CentOS 4.2 release before. My kernel is 2.6.9-22.ELsmp /usr/bin/yum -y remove openoffice.org-1.1.2-28.6.0.EL4.i386 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-base-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-calc-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-core09-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-core10-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-draw-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-emailmerge-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-gnome-integration-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-graphicfilter-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-impress-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-javafilter-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-kde-integration-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-math-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-onlineupdate-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-redhat-menus-2.1-5.noarch /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-testtool-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-writer-2.1.0-6.i586 /usr/bin/yum -y install openoffice.org-xsltfilter-2.1.0-6.i586 -----Message d'origine----- De : centos-bounces(a)centos.org [mailto:centos-bounces@centos.org]De la part de Jim Perrin Envoyé : lundi 26 mars 2007 15:51 À : CentOS mailing list Objet : Re: [CentOS] OpenOffice 2.1 with CentOS 4.4 x86_64 doesn't work > I removed the openoffice 1.1 release from my system (kernel 2.6.9) for install the full OpenOffice 2.1. > > But after trying to start the new soffice, nothing happen.

Hi, I removed the openoffice 1.1 release from my system (kernel 2.6.9) for install the full OpenOffice 2.1. But after trying to start the new soffice, nothing happen. (may be java problem ?)

by Jerry Geis 26 Mar '07

26 Mar '07

The new 4.92 installed nicely on this laptop... I am trying to get wireless networking going. I installed XEN. my kernel is 2.6.18-1.2747.el5xen I downloaded ipw3945-linux-1.2.0 This told me do download ieee80211-1.2.16 So when I try to compile ieee80211 it tells me find: /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2747.el5xen/build/: No such file or directory egrep: /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2747.el5xen/build//.config: No such file or directory egrep: /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2747.el5xen/build//include/linux/autoconf.h: No such file or directory find: /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2747.el5xen/build/: No such file or directory make: *** /lib/modules/2.6.18-1.2747.el5xen/build: No such file or directory. Stop. make: *** [modules] Error 2 the build directory is a symbolic link to /usr/src/kernels.... This directory is missing. What yum command do I execute to get it? THanks, Jerry

However, my computer is linked up to a DSL modem and has no subnet, per se, and the DSL host assigns my IP address. So: 1) Is tehre a way I can get around this and give my Windows VM its own IP address (and how)? 2) If not, how would I set up one of the other ethernet types to make this work? NAT doesn't look right for this, and I don't know enough to do a custom network, so that hints to me that host-only might work, but that calls for a vmnet1 device on the host, and I know nothing about this (but I will look - just hoped for a quickie answer here...). Thanks.

Strange output of netstat -a or is it??
by Edward Milstein 26 Mar '07

26 Mar '07

Hello, When I do a netstat -ap as root, I get the following line in the output: udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:36489 0.0.0.0:* 31345/named This means that named is listening on port 36489 udp and for the life of me, I can not figure out (including googling for it), what it is... On another host of the exact same versions but different setup, I have something similar.. udp 0 0 *:32768 *:* 2072/named Anyone got a guess?? -ed-

4.92 beta and xen
by Jerry Geis 26 Mar '07

26 Mar '07

I have 4.92 installed. I installed xen at installation time. When I reboot it gets hung at xend for some time. Not sure why? It does eventually move on, I'd say for a good minute it stays there. Just an observation? Not sure what can be done.... Jerry
