Apache, fastcgi, ruby-on-rails etc.
by Michael Metz 12 Mar '06

12 Mar '06

Hi all, I've read a bit about fastcgi, and wondered if it might be an interesting solution for e.g. running php in a user-switched environment or running ruby-on-rails etc. But I wonder why nobody (searched on Google) seems to use CentOS with mod_fastcgi for Apache 2.x. And I also wonder why people actually using Apache 2.x and ruby-on-rails with CentOS did run a lighthttpd-fastcgi inbetween and reverse-proxying requests from Apache to lighthttpd to actually forward them to RoR running as fastcgi. Could sombody please give me a hint? Regards, Michael

Moving files to new server
by Thomas E Dukes 12 Mar '06

12 Mar '06

Hello, The new server is in and I am about to attempt the file transfers. I have NEVER attempted this and want to do it right the first time. Reading the man pages for cp and scp it looks as if the -a switches are different. Are they? I want/am going to transfer files/directories across the local network. Should I work from the new machine or the old? What files are machine dependent? In other words, what files, if any, should not be copied because of hardware differences? Sorry for all the seemingly stupid questions but as I said, I have never undertaken this before. TIA

Need kernel 2.6.9-43.unsupport fron centosplus
by lnthai2002＠aim.com 12 Mar '06

12 Mar '06

I have been using kernel from centosplus for a few months. It quite stable and have support for my TV card and ntfs partitions. However, after the last yum update, kernel 2.6.9-34 from the update repo has been installed with all other updated packages. In fact, i still have kernel 2.6.9-22.106.unsupport on my system but whenever i use this kernel, the cupsd can not start. Can anyone tell me when the kernel 2.6.9-34.unsupport available? If nobody make that unsupport kernel, how can i roll back all the packages that can be use with kernel 2.6.9-22-106.unsupport or how can i add driver for my TV card and ntfs support? Thanks in advance Thai ________________________________________________________________________ Check Out the new free AIM(R) Mail -- 2 GB of storage and industry-leading spam and email virus protection.

Getting DHCP Via CLI
by Mark Sargent 12 Mar '06

12 Mar '06

Hi All, I'm wanting to tell my centos box to get a dynamic ip via cli. I know I can do "ifconfig eth0 up", or "ifconfig eth0 191.168.100.35 netmask 255.255.255.0", but, how do I tell it to send the dhcp 0.0.0.0 broadcast to the DHCP server? Cheers. Mark Sargent.

Motherboard recommendations
by Bowie Bailey 12 Mar '06

12 Mar '06

I have been building my systems with Abit IS-10 motherboards, but NewEgg has stopped carrying them, so I need to switch to something new. Does anyone have any recommendations on a solid motherboard that works well with CentOS? I need a motherboard with built-in video, LAN, and SATA. I don't need RAID or any other fancy features, just something cheap and solid. I've been looking around, but there are lots of boards that look like they would work and I know nothing about any of them. I was just wondering what you guys are using. Thanks. -- Bowie

2.6.9-34.EL kernel broken on i586?
by Aleksandar Milivojevic 12 Mar '06

12 Mar '06

My three basement machines got upgraded to 2.6.9-34.EL by nightly yum cron job. The two i686 seem to be fine. However, on the old i586 machine I got hole bunch of warnings. Haven't attempted rebooting it with new kernel yet. The warnings are: WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/amd76x_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_del_mc WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/amd76x_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_find_mci_by_pdev WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/amd76x_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_add_mc WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/amd76x_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_alloc WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/amd76x_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_handle_ce WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/amd76x_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_handle_ue WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/e7xxx_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_del_mc WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/e7xxx_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_find_mci_by_pdev WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/e7xxx_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_add_mc WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/e7xxx_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_alloc WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/e7xxx_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_handle_ue_no_info WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/e7xxx_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_find_csrow_by_page WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/e7xxx_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_handle_ce WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/e7xxx_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_handle_ue WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-34.EL/kernel/drivers/edac/e7xxx_edac.ko needs unknown symbol edac_mc_handle_ce_no_info

sshd hack
by Chris Mauritz 12 Mar '06

12 Mar '06

I'm not really a programmer and I recently came across this hack to insert a short sleep statement into auth-passwd.c within sshd. It seems to quickly confuse automated dictionary attacks. I've moved sshd to higher ports but apparently the cretins are now scanning to look for that and attacking on whatever port sshd shows up on. Anyway, the link to the hack is here: http://www.aerospacesoftware.com/ssh-kiddies.html Just wondering if any of the wizened programmers out there can think of any reason why this would be a bad thing to do. Cheers,

Q's about switching from sendmail to postfix
by Joe Klemmer 12 Mar '06

12 Mar '06

Running CentOS 4.2 with all updates. I've been using sendmail for my MTA since forever. I've grown used to it and I can make it do what I want it to. However (there's always a catch, isn't there)... Lately it seems that some mail is being lost. I've noticed some instances when a message was sent to myself and others which I will only see if someone replies back to everyone. Additionally, I am on the word-a-day list and have noticed that occasionally I don't get the word for that day. At first I thought it was just me. My .procmailrc is a horror to look at and I've got some fairly aggressive anti-spam stuff going on. But my mother has mentioned this problem, too. (I have my whole family setup with email on my server, good son that I am) Anyway, I want to try swapping out sendmail for postfix to see if that makes any kind of difference. Now, I promise to hit the HOW-TO's and FAQ's and google/A9 myself blue in the face, but if someone has already done this could you kindly post a quick message with any "gotchas" you found or any config issues you ran into it would be greatly appreciated.
