force 10 megabit full duplex
by William Warren 18 Apr '06

18 Apr '06

I figured out how to force 10 megabit full duplex on my ethernet interface. The trick is i need it to stick in case of a reboot so i don't have to reforce it. I have not been able to figure that one out yet. I have not found it in the man's or google yet. If someone could point me in the right direction i would be much obliged. -- My "Foundation" verse: Isa 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn.

Need? php-iconv-?
by James B. Byrne 18 Apr '06

18 Apr '06

I am experiencing a folder display problem in squirrelmail [SF issue 1471703] which is caused by messages containing a From: header whose data string matches the following regexp: =?iso-2022-jp?B?[.*]=?=[.*] It has been suggested that I require php-iconv extentions to solve this but I seem unable to locate a CentOS or RedHat-EL4 rpm providing this package. Can anyone point me to a location where I can get this package for CentOS-4.3? My current install looks like this: php-4.3.9-3.9 php-pear-4.3.9-3.9 php-ldap-4.3.9-3.9 php-odbc-4.3.9-3.9 squirrelmail-1.4.3a-12.EL4.centos4 As I am a digest subscriber I request that any answers to the list also be copied directly to me.

Automounting Problems (CentOS 4.2 v/s CentOS 4.0)
by Raj Singh 18 Apr '06

18 Apr '06

Hello, Auto-mounting of USB flash-drives and CD-RW (as well as CD-R) was working fine with CentOS 4.0 release for all users. This feature of auto-recognition and mounting is not working with CentOS 4.2 release for any user. I have checked the usual possible points of problems -- fstab, fstab-sync, haldaemon, etc. -- but have found no problems. Any suggestions on other possible work-arounds ? Thanks, -- Raj

Re: [CentOS] Dovecot 1.0.something rpm for CentOS?

I thought, maybe it's meant to require people to import the key first. It looks like when I don't import the key it gets retrieved with each installation (and then discarded), so it's retrieved multiple times instead of just once.

Try $ rpm -qz postgres* You should be running 8.1.3 which corrects a remote exploit problem: --> # Fix bug that allowed any logged-in user to SET ROLE to any other database user id (CVE-2006-0553) Due to inadequate validity checking, a user could exploit the special case that SET ROLE normally uses to restore the previous role setting after an error. This allowed ordinary users to acquire superuser status, for example. The escalation-of-privilege risk exists only in 8.1.0-8.1.2. However, in all releases back to 7.3 there is a related bug in SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION that allows unprivileged users to crash the server, if it has been compiled with Asserts enabled (which is not the default). Thanks to Akio Ishida for reporting this problem. --> Binaries for RH-EL4 are available through postgresql.org at http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/binary/v8.1.3/linux/rpms/redhat/rhel-es-4/. These work fine on CentOS as far as I can determine. You must install compat-postgresql-libs-3-4.c4.centos to maintain CentOS-4.3 software with dependencies on older versions of PostgeSQL. -- *** e-mail is NOT a secure channel *** James B.

Problems Formatting /boot With CentOS 4.3 on a DL360 G3
by hkclark＠gmail.com 17 Apr '06

17 Apr '06

I have been trying to install CentOS 4.3 on an HP DL360 G3 (with dual Xeon 3.2 GHz, a Smart Array 5i, and two 36 GB disks doing RAID 1 mirroring). I'm doing all defaults (including the disk and LVM setup) and using the "Minimal" checkbox at the bottom of the Custom machine type package selection screen, so it's a very "vanilla" install. It zips through the "Formatting / file system..." just fine in a couple of seconds. When it gets to "Formatting the /boot file system..." it quickly moves up to about 90-95% complete, and then it totally locks up... the mouse quits moving, the animated cursor locks up... everything. I even left it overnight just to be sure and still the same. But, when I stick in a CentOS 4.2 CD, it runs fine. Also, I ran a media check on the 4.3 CD and it checks out fine. Any ideas? Thanks!

Sendmail and Plain Auth
by Erick Perez 17 Apr '06

17 Apr '06

Hi, I want to do plain auth against my password file. However it has been difficult to find a proper docs and all i have found reuqieres recompiling or patching. I am not interested in ecrypted communication with a certificate. Just plain auth. My mailserver should allow some users that will be traveling to send mail using our server and we don't know what IP address they will have. thanks, -- ------------------------------------------- Erick Perez Linux User 376588 http://counter.li.org/ (Get counted!!!)

one-shot raid mirror to remote?
by Les Mikesell 17 Apr '06

17 Apr '06

I have a filesystem on a RAID1 partition created with a 'missing' mirror so I can periodically sync with an external drive for backup. Now I'd like to move the contents to a different machine that has a matching partition with minimal downtime. Is it possible to export the new partition via iscsi or an nbd device so that the old system will sync to it over the network allowing an unmount of the old to be followed by an immediate mount of the new mirror with a very short time when it will be unavailable? -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell(a)gmail.com
