problems copying distro files
by Robert Moskowitz 05 Sep '06

05 Sep '06

At this point in my lab, the only solid servers I have are Win2000. So I xcopy the distro CDs into a directory that I make available for install via ftp. Well I have had problems copying files from this distro. I had to use the /c option in xcopy to get past the problem files.. A few examples are: The following files in the image directory of disk 1 has 'File creation error - The parameter is incorrect.": README boot.iso diskboot.img pxeboot/README My screen buffer is only 400, so I missed any errors in the first 1500 files. And I think there was one earlier (the reason why I had to add the /c option). On I think CD 3 in the Centos/RPMS the file tix.8.1.4-98.i386.rpm had a 'File creation error -Date error (cyclic redundancy check). I created both CDs twice from the ISO images, getting these errors. There may be others. Any input on this?

I have an XPI that I used to apply to mozilla. seamonkey is now loaded instead of mozilla. even if I do a "yum install mozilla" I still get seamonkey. How do I get mozilla. My XPI does not seem to work with seamonkey... THanks, Jerry

Yam not generating repomd.xml
by Eduardo Grosclaude 05 Sep '06

05 Sep '06

I think I have obeyed the docs. Metadata in yam conf says repomd (formerly createrepo but led to "unexisting --update option" message). Conf is otherwise pretty close to examples. I have downloaded Centos 4.4 ISOs, I have done yam -gv, ISO files are correctly mounted and published via HTTP, etc but no xml files are generated anywhere under /var/www/yam. What am I overlooking? Can I have yam make repo metadata if I have ISO files as well? TIA # yum list available Setting up repositories update 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 http://192.168.0.205/yam/centos4-i386/RPMS.os/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 4] IOError: HTTP Error 404: Not Found Trying other mirror.

Removed Plus kernel, yum still wants to update plus kernel
by Robert Moskowitz 05 Sep '06

05 Sep '06

I am trying to get off the plus kernel. Hasn't helped yet, and my MadWifi does not work with it. So I used YUMEX to remove all of the plus kernel cruft that I could see. I rebooted. ONly the standard kernel was listed in the boot menu (good sign). Start up Yumex, and it is showing that the plus kernel needs updating. Nothing on the regular kernel. Just yum update behaves the same. So where does yum keep its 'memory', so I can remove references to the plus kernel and get back to the regular kernel?????

Active/Passive Cluster
by Ed Morrison 05 Sep '06

05 Sep '06

I'm setting up a mail server in an active/passive cluster. Does any know of a guide that details how to setup 2 linux servers connecting to the same data array? I'm planning on using heartbeat but I do not see any array configuration in the documentation. Thanks, Ed

OT: How to make files placed into FTP directory available via http
by Ed Morrison 05 Sep '06

05 Sep '06

I'm hoping someone out there can tell me or direct me on where to find this info on how to make files placed into an ftp directory available via an url link in an email. I will have a staff member upload the files to a directory on my ftp server (which is also the web server) and the files would have to be automatically linked to a web directory, unless the files can be read directly from the ftp server. This needs to have no interaction from me and should be automagic..... Any and all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Ed

How to get 4.3 updates without 4.4 upgrade
by Robert Moskowitz 05 Sep '06

05 Sep '06

Well, I want to stay on an even keel, here with 4.3 for a week or two. I would like to update needed programs. Would also like to get a newer gnome! What are others doing here. Too much traffic, too much to read....

Now running vmlinuz-2.6.9-42.0.2.EL -- MadWifi dead
by Robert Moskowitz 04 Sep '06

04 Sep '06

Kudzu is not recognizing my Atheros card. Actually I was having this problem with the plus kernel and I fell back to 2.6.9-34.0.2 Running on ethernet until I can figure out what to update.
