upgrade to kernel 2.6.9.42.02
by Rajeev R Veedu 30 Aug '06

30 Aug '06

Dear all, I have upgraded the kernel and it took my 3w-9550sx-8LP sata raid card out of the box. It also fixed the problem of getting obsolete channel (my posting last week). Thanks for all your help and your support. Thanks Rajeev

smbmount
by Al Sparks 29 Aug '06

Is there a method or way that will allow one to automagically mount samba shares requiring a password w/o using a plain text password? Even if I have to store the plaintext password in a file, is there at least a way to keep plain text passwords going over the network (IPSec perhaps)? === Al

Any one have a good example...

...of a shell script for rsync that won't start again if it is already running? I thought of using a lock file, but what if it is killed mid script or bombs? -- MailScanner is like deodorant... You hope everybody uses it, and you notice quickly if they don't!!!!

centosplus kernel packages and compiler versions
by Bart Schaefer 29 Aug '06

29 Aug '06

I just installed the updated kernel packages for centos 4.4 from the centosplus repository. When I run vmware-config.pl to rebuild the vmware modules, it warns me that the kernel was compiled with gcc 3.4.6, whereas my compiler is gcc 3.4.5, and recommends that I not rebuild the modules unless I have exactly the same compiler version. I ignored this and built the modules anyway and they work fine, but why are the plus kernels not built with the stock centos4 compiler suite?

I guess there's not a hugemem version for 64-bit, so I'll just go with kernel-smp. I forgot about that minor detail. Most of my machines are only 32-bit. -- Bowie

VSFTPD problem ?
by Denis Croombs 29 Aug '06

29 Aug '06

I have 1 Centos server V4.x already running VSFTPD and when the user logs in they get chrooted to the home directory, I have installed the same config files to a second server (again Centos V4.x) and have setup the same user on the second server but the user does not get chrooted to the home directory but is placed in /var/ftp/pub and cannot upload file. The files I copied are:- /etc/vsftpd.user_list /etc/vsftpd /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf /etc/vsftpd.ftpusers /etc/vsftpd.chroot_list Any clues ? Thanks Denis

Which kernel package?
by Bowie Bailey 29 Aug '06

29 Aug '06

I am building a new system which will have a pair of dual-core Opterons and 16GB memory. Should I use kernel-smp or kernel-hugemem? I see that RH recommends the hugemem kernel if you have more than 16GB (and we may upgrade at some point, the MB supports 32GB). Any comments on this? The only difference that the descriptions show is the 4GB/4GB split with the hugemem kernel and I'm not quite clear on what that does. -- Bowie

question on lokkit
by Jerry Geis 29 Aug '06

29 Aug '06

I am wanting to pass arguments to lokkit to set up the iptables config file with an entry like this: ( i dont want to manually edit it - I want to do it automatically) iptables -A INPUT -p udp -m udp --dport 10000:20000 -j ACCEPT I have a small script file that has in it the ports I want enabled, like: ------------------- PORT_SSH="--port=22:tcp" PORT_HTTP="--port=http:tcp" /usr/sbin/lokkit -q --high --dhcp -t lo -t eth0 -t eth1 $PORT_SSH $PORT_HTTP ------------------- I want to add another line to enable ports 10000 - 20000. however the ":tdp" or ":udp" conflict with 10000:20000. I tried useing something like "10000,20000:udp" but did not work. THanks for any suggestions. Jerry
