Scripting port scans
by Ugo Bellavance 08 Dec '06

08 Dec '06

Hi, I need to test one specific port on a serie of Ip addresses that I own, I thought about using nmap or telnet, but both return the same value, no matter if the port is open or filtered. Anyone has an idea, before I start scripting to analyse the output of the command? Regards, Ugo

I have downloaded the php5 rpms from Centos and successfully am running them on RHEL4. However, there is no rpm for php-mssql. Has anyone created one that could be installed on RHEL4? Thanks. - Mark

Sorry if I missed that, by the way thanks to all who reply. I already get the points of using Yum and will uninstall the already installed postfix from the source using checkinstall as advise from the other lists and will use Yum instead. Thanks again. ----------------------------------------- Jun Salen wrote: > Hi, > > Need some advice on installing postfix in CentOS4. > Which is better, installing by yum or rpm -i or by > compiling from source code?

Thanks. this issue has been covered a few times on the list, I suggest you start with a search through the achieves. short answer: use yum ( which in turn uses rpm ). junji linux registered user #253162 Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com

Cannot install driver under CentOS/ VMware ?
by MikeW 07 Dec '06

07 Dec '06

Trying the most basic 'vanilla hello world' kernel driver, install using insmod, and trying in module_init to do a simple kmalloc() fails, kmalloc returns NULL - i.e. cannot allocate memory. The driver loads fine under another non-VM system. Is this a CentOS/VMware quirk ? Does anyone know of a workaround or is it just a fact of life that you cannot use insmod once the system is running ? After all, the 'normal' kernel modules are able to load OK at startup. Thanks, MikeW

CentOS 4.4 and ACLs
by Ian Bonnycastle 07 Dec '06

07 Dec '06

Hey all, I'm using CentOS 4.4, and want to start doing some work with ACLs (getfacl/setfacl). Unfourtunately, no matter what I do, I get the same error over and over again: setfacl: <filename>: Operation not supported I've tried enabling/disabling the acl and xattr modes on my root partition (the one I'm working on), I've tried moving the file to other directories, rebooting the system after I make the changes... nothing. Right now, the system is set up as follows: /etc/fstab: LABEL=/ / ext3,acl defaults 1 1 % mount /dev/sda5 on / type ext3,acl (rw) ... Should I have a particular kernel module loaded? getfacl seems to work fine, but it may be deferring to the lower-level chmod permissions that are already there. If there is a kernel module to load, I can't tell what it should be, since there are none that have "acl" in their names under /lib/modules/<kernel version>. Please help!

CentOS 4 and Intel D965 motherboards
by David Thompson 07 Dec '06

07 Dec '06

Does anyone have information on support for Intel D965-based motherboards for CentOS 4 (i386)? I've got a DG965RYCK that fails a CentOS 4.4 install early on (problems scanning the PCI bus). Fedora Core 6 installs just fine. If anyone has any information, or magic boot parameters to try, please let me know. ("Works for me" is OK too). Thanks much. Dave Thompson UW-Madison
