Just wondering if anyone on the list is using Freevo + CentOS. I'm having some difficulty wrangling it and various dependencies and was hoping to chat with someone who's gotten it to work off list. This is for my home media center project. Thanks, Chris

RE: [CentOS] Samba config for Windows on VMWare

From: Mark Hull-Richter [mailto:mhull-richter@datallegro.com] Sent: Friday, March 23, 2007 12:15 PM To: CentOS mailing list Subject: [CentOS] Samba config for Windows on VMWare I know this is a little off topic (not as usual, dammit!), but I figure at least one of y'all can handle this one. I have tried to configure my CentOS4.4 Plus desktop for samba sharing with the VMWare Windows that runs on it. However, no matter what I've done so far, I can't get the Windows to recognize this machine as a legitimate network destination. Here's my samba config file: [root@mhullrichter shared]# cat /etc/samba/smb.conf # Global parameters [global] server string = Samba Server security = SHARE log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 50 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 printcap name = /etc/printcap dns proxy = No idmap uid = 16777216-33554431 idmap gid = 16777216-33554431 cups options = raw [homes] comment = Home Directories read only = No browseable = No [public] comment = Data path = /home/mark force user = mark force group = users read only = No guest ok = Yes [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba printable = Yes browseable = No It passes testparm, the smb daemons are up and running: [root@mhullrichter shared]# psg smbd root 2751 1 0 11:44 ? 00:00:00 smbd -D root 2752 2751 0 11:44 ? 00:00:00 smbd -D I noticed that neither the nmbd nor winbindd daemons are running - dunno why, the startup showed [ OK ]. But in the Windows, it can see my machine but can't connect to it - what am I missing?

kickstart - how do I specify I20_block driver
by Karl R. Balsmeier 23 Mar '07

23 Mar '07

Hi, I have alot of kickstart and scripting going on as I provision lots of machines, and every now and then I run into a pesky machine or three that's still got that Adeptec zero-channel RAID card sitting on the board. Normally I like to rip it our and throw something more robust in, but if it's a cache machine or whatever, I leave it in. It makes my kickstart file useless until I ask you, the list, how do I edit the kickstart file to tell the installer to add this driver and use it. If I don't, I get an error that says roughly "no suitable disk devices found to install on". i'm calling kickstart like this (thanks to Joshua-Baker LePain's advice a while back) linux ks=http://192.168.my.webserver/serverx.ks ip=192.168.whatever.ip netmask=255.255.255.248 gateway=192.168.x.1 dns=my.dns.server.ip Is there a section I should edit just before this disks in the kickstart file are called to call and use the i20_block driver, or do I pass it as a parameter at the kickstart command line? -karlski

Errors in display settings
by Mark Hull-Richter 23 Mar '07

23 Mar '07

This is what nvidia-settings gave me on the terminal window before it brought up its own (useless) window - anyone know what this means (or is it all related back to the other thread I posted on screensaver problems)? [mhr@mhrichter ~]$ nvidia-settings ERROR: NV-CONTROL extension not found on this Display. ERROR: Unable to determine number of NVIDIA GPUs on ':0.0'. ERROR: Unable to determine number of NVIDIA Frame Lock Devices on ': 0.0'. ERROR: Unable to determine number of NVIDIA VCSCs on ':0.0'.

by Josep M. 23 Mar '07

23 Mar '07

Hello. I use Centos 4.4 on desktop now and I was looking for gnome-commander, I see that RHEL or any RHEL based distro provides RPMs, only FC5 and FC7. Also Dag repository have this only for FC1. I would like know if there is anyo ther package better or similar to this, or any other package similar to Norton Commander.

CentOS-5 beta Virtual Guest Setup Problem
by Mark Snyder 23 Mar '07

23 Mar '07

Hi all, Using virt-manager to install a fully virtualized guest of CentOS 4.4 from DVD media fails after reboot at end of anaconda install process. Google has NOT been my friend on this but I know someone else has seen this problem, just no answers yet, and reading the docs has only resulted in more questions than answers (?my problem?). I think that the problem is in getting the vncpasswd for the reboot to display the GU. The qumu-dm*.log file shows this as: xs_read(): vncpasswd get error. /vm/8373baf3-8dd8-8559-19ad-546cf0283b0b/vncpasswd issued domain 1 reboot The xend.log and the virt-manager.log don't seem to be showing me any errors in the process, but then I just may not be interpreting them correctly. My system is a supermicro X7DBE+ with 2 Xeon 5160, 8G RAM and 4 147G SAS drives setup as raid 10. I did set the BIOS to allow virtualization. The CentOS 5 was a clean default install as a server GU with the virtualization option added. I have to admit that at best I only know enough to be dangerous, (that would be on a good day) having come over to linux from another OS and am more at the user level than a sys op, but I am trying to learn. Any help or hints would be appreciated. Mark
