I tested moving a box from Tao 1.0 to CentOS 3.7. All went well, as far as I can tell, with the OS upgrades, but I needed to rpm -ivh --force the desktop-* stuff. This was a minor thing to fix for no real purpose other than to just be doing it. I still get, though, the Tao screens when the graphic login screen appears. I have changed the Application->Settings->Login Screen-> Graphical to Blue Curve. Is there a set of artwork rpms I need or something? I cant't remember, but I think there is something on the original grub splash, also, after rebooting. Not a big deal, but would just like to see if I can tidy this up a bit.

CentOS4.3 - x86_64 - lockups
by Tom Brown 31 May '06

31 May '06

Hi I have a box that is a Linux LVS project based load balancer running on an 1850 and x86_64 bit version of CentOS. In the past i have never had issues with LVS but then again i have never tried it with x86_64 linux. This box will after a variable about of time, 1 day upto a week or so, stop accepting ssh connections, although http connections will be fine, and then after another period of time http will also stop being accepted/forwarded. It remains pingable but the only option is a power cycle. There is nothing in the logs as to why and this box was doing this when it was a 4.2 machine but it has recently been updated to 4.3 but the issue remains. There is nothing obvious in any logs and i can run x84_64 happily on other 1850's although they are not LVS's. The only thing that is showing up in the logs is this (scsi0:A:6:0): data overrun detected in Data-in phase. Tag == 0x3. (scsi0:A:6:0): Have seen Data Phase. Length = 50. NumSGs = 1. sg[0] - Addr 0x030910000 : Length 50(scsi0:A:6:0): data overrun detected repeated lots - does anyone know what that might be but also what could be the cause of this? thanks

Thanks. Have to start checking that one as well. Now if I can just find one that has the 3.x version of Shorewall... Alex Palenschat

Problem after last update
by Dominik Składanowski 31 May '06

31 May '06

Hello list. Since morning I have an emergency. After last kernel update one of my servers didn't start. On display I see only "GRUB" :( I have 2 more servers based on CentOS too, but after the same update this servers works. All servers have 2 HDs and works as software mirror. I have started damaged machine using Knoppix and I can see partitions and data on both disks. Of course I have made a backup. Anybody has the same problem? It can be hardware problem - HD diode light all the time. Or maybe something went wrong during update? Regards -- _________________________________________________________________ D o m i n i k S k ł a d a n o w s k i

If you are running the packages from the csgfs repository, you need to wait until the cluster packages are updated for the new kernel and then upgrade the kernel and the csgfs packages together. -- Bowie

VPN Solution required
by Tom Brown 31 May '06

31 May '06

Hi I need a VPN solution that will work to a CentOS4 server thats behind a NAT'ing hardware firewall appliance. This has to be able to work on Windows and OSX and i have to access a server on the LAN. I have looked at OpenVPN but for some reason i'm having issues with generating certificates using their howto and i used the rpm from Dag. While i continue my fight with this is there any other options out there? thanks

Problem installing from CD
by Jeffrey B. Layton 31 May '06

31 May '06

Good morning, I hate to bother everyone again, but I'm having some more trouble. I have a new machine with an MSI RS480M2-IL motherboard (ATI Xpress200 chipset) and a Hammer DVD Writer (shows up as a Matshita DVD-RAM SW-9585). I get the CD to start (in text mode - don't know why I can't do VGA or better), and it asks me What type of media contains the packages to be installed. I choose CDROM and then it says: The CentOS-4 x86_64 CD was not found in any of your CDROM drives. Please insert the CentOS x86_64 CD and press OK to retry. The funny thing is that this is Disk 1 of x86_64. Any ideas? I've tried a couple of different download sites and I always get the same problem. TIA! Jeff

Today's Topics: 1. CentOS 4.3 Server CD - i386 Released (Karanbir Singh) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Tue, 30 May 2006 13:38:04 +0100 From: Karanbir Singh <kbsingh(a)centos.org> Subject: [CentOS-announce] CentOS 4.3 Server CD - i386 Released To: CentOS-Announce <centos-announce(a)centos.org> Cc: distro(a)distrowatch.com Message-ID: <447C3CAC.30202(a)centos.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 The single CD server install for CentOS 4.3 / i386 has now been released and is available from all active mirrors. A torrent will be available shortly from the centos/4/isos/i386 directory shortly. md5sum for the CentOS 4.3 ServerCD / i386 is : 35cdcfcb17c28fb2be6e56689ba7a0d6 CentOS-4.3.ServerCD-i386.iso You can find a local mirror to download from here: http://isoredirect.centos.org/centos/4/isos/i386/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- We appreciate all feedback ( via http://bugs.centos.org/ ), including RFE's and bug notifications. Notes: 1. This installer will only work with i686 based cpu's ( no K6, older Via C2 / C3 support ) 2. The included packages are a subset of all packages available in the CentOS distribution, however yum has been pre-configured to use the entire repository. 3. In order to ensure that drivers and other third party apps maintain compatibility, the package set used on the Server CD is from Release time CentOS 4.3, you are strongly encouraged to run a 'yum update' immediately after installation. 4. As some of you will notice, the iso size is lower than the 650mb acceptable for a single CD. Feedback on what other packages should be aded or removed from this Single CD for the next release are very welcome. Enjoy! -- Karanbir Singh http://www.centos.org/ ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ CentOS-announce mailing list CentOS-announce(a)centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-announce End of CentOS-announce Digest, Vol 15, Issue 8 **********************************************
