This is an article I came across on zdnet.com. You may or may not agree with it. Personally, I don't. Anyway, here's the link to it. I thought some of you might want to read it, and form your own opinion. http://blogs.zdnet.com/Murphy/?p=769 Thanks for the help on the wireless problem. Jim

rsync doesn't update directory ownership
by Fajar Priyanto 23 Jan '07

23 Jan '07

Hi all, Has anyone encountered this: On ServerA, I make this directory: /var/ftp/pub/userA with ownership root.root It gets rsynced to serverB with this command: rsync -avzgorp --delete -e ssh /var/ftp/pub/ root@serverB:/var/ftp/pub/ However, when I change the ownership of /var/ftp/pub/userA to userA.userA, this change is not rsync-ed to serverB. Is there any option to achieve this? Thank you very much. -- Fajar Priyanto | Reg'd Linux User #327841 | Linux tutorial http://linux2.arinet.org 8:17pm up 12:35, 2.6.16.13-4-default GNU/Linux Let's use OpenOffice. http://www.openoffice.org

The -a actually is a shortcut for -rlptogoD, so all you really need is -avz as options. If you could provide an ls -la of the source and remote directories, that would help tremendously. One thing that comes to mind is to be sure that userA.userA has the same UID & GID on both servers. In my case, where I'm rsyncing to a remote server and the UID/GID don't match, you'll just get numeric IDs as owners and groups on the remote side. So, try eliminating the duplicate options first, be sure UID/GID are the same on both servers. Let us know how it goes. HTH Thanks!

dkms
by Tony Schreiner 23 Jan '07

23 Jan '07

First, I want to thank Karanbir for the centos extras repo. I have a question about dkms. I have several Dell PowerEdge systems with Centos 4, and kbs-CentOS- Extras and dell-software repos enabled. Is there any possible conflict if I allow yum to update dkms from dell-software instead of kbs-CentOS-Extras? Currently the i386 architecture has version 2.0.11- in dell-software and 2.0.10-1 in kbs-CentOS-Extras. Cheers, Tony Schreiner Boston College

PostgreSQL 8.2?
by Benjamin Smith 23 Jan '07

23 Jan '07

I've been using RPMs for PG 8.1 from CentosPlus for some time now. I've been very happy with them, and they've been wonderfully stable. http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4/centosplus/x86_64/RPMS/ But now 8.2 is out. Are there any plans to support PG 8.2 in CentosPlus, or should I go ahead with RPMS directly from PG? http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/binary/v8.2.1/linux/rpms/redhat/rhel-as-4-x86… Thanks, -Ben -- "The best way to predict the future is to invent it." - XEROX PARC slogan, circa 1978

OOT: Advice on failover rsync setup
by Fajar Priyanto 23 Jan '07

23 Jan '07

Hi all, I have a task on setting up a cluster of 2 servers for providing ftp service. We use RH's Cluster suite. However the cluster setup is lack of shared network storage, so the /var/ftp/pub is mounted on each server. The cluster is set with Master and Slave configuration (when the master is down, slave serves. and when master is up again, slaves gives up the service back to master). We thought of using rsync to synchronize the two directory on each server. B -----> A with: rsync -avzgorp -e ssh root@serverB:/var/ftp/pub/ /var/ftp/pub/ A -----> B with: rsync -avzgorp --delete -e ssh /var/ftp/pub/ root@serverB:/var/ftp/pub/ (note: using --delete) We want those command to make sure that the most current and complete /var/ftp/pub is on A and we put those command on A only. So, are we on the right direction? Or is there any better way? Thank you very much, -- Fajar Priyanto | Reg'd Linux User #327841 | Linux tutorial http://linux2.arinet.org 3:44pm up 6:53, 2.6.16.13-4-default GNU/Linux Let's use OpenOffice. http://www.openoffice.org

I replaced my Linksys with the Buffalo only because the Buffalo was cheaper, around $55. Dd-wrt is pretty easy to figure out. HTH Mark

Thunderbird package chrome icon
by Paul Kopacz 23 Jan '07

23 Jan '07

Hello, Since starting to use the Thunderbird package provided through the CentOS yum repos (currently using thunderbird-1.5.0.9-0.1.el4.centos4), my co-worker and I have noticed that we no longer have a Thunderbird icon in the title bar of any of the Thunderbird application windows. I was able to fix this by creating the directory /usr/lib/thunderbird-1.5.0.9/chrome/icons/default/ and copying into it the (attached) file default.xpm. The binary download bundle from the mozilla.org site includes that file (and several others under the chrome/icons directory) while the package from the CentOS repos does not. Is there something that I'm missing? Please note that I am not talking about the desktop integration (i.e. the thunderbird.desktop file and the thunderbird.png file in the /usr/share/pixmaps directory). That part works fine. Thanks very much, Paul Kopacz

by Roberto Pereyra 23 Jan '07

23 Jan '07

Hi all !! I would to like to mark and route some kind of traffic (ie: outbound www, now by simplicity) ---inet1--------eth0------------| | | linux | --eth1------- clientes ---inet2(90.0.0.1)--------eth2-| | I have eth0 and eth1 bridged (eth2 is not bridged). I would to route www outbound clients traffic through eth2. This scheme works ? I wrote this scripts: a) add this line to /etc/iproute2/rt_tables 200 web b) I assign ip to eth2: /sbin/ifconfig eth2 90.0.0.2 c) Mark outbound www packets from clients: /usr/local/sbin/iptables -A PREROUTING -t mangle -m physdev --physdev-in eth1 -p tcp --dport 80 -j MARK --set-mark 2 d) I routing this marked packets /sbin/ip rule add fwmark 2 table web /sbin/ip route add default via 90.0.0.1 dev eth2 table web e) Now I run iptraf listen eth2 but through eth2 is nothing of traffic. What's a doing wrong ? How I can do it with a bridge ? Thanks in advance for any hint and excuse my english. roberto -- Ing.
