resuming FreeNX sessions
by Craig White 30 Jan '06

30 Jan '06

I've been running a FreeNX session for several days. During that time, I have occasionally lost the connect and when I re-establish the connection, it resumes where I left off and it was really nice. Tonight I lost the connection and when I reconnected, it started a new session but when I run NX Session Administrator application on the FreeNX server, it still shows the session as 'running'. I really want to re-connect to my other session as that has the editors and everything else running and I could terminate it and start over but I am wondering if there are any tricks that might be had to reconnect to an existing session (I can see the pid for both the current session and the session that I would like to connect for example...) Thanks Craig

Upgrading samba past the regular packages
by Matt Morgan 30 Jan '06

30 Jan '06

Despite Craig's excellent help with my Excel/Samba, I continue to have trouble with Samba 3.0.10 under CentOS 4.2. Quickbooks, now, too, is just acting really weird. I'm tempted to upgrade beyond the regular packages, although I really don't like to do that, because the samba list and a lot of info online lead me to believe that 3.0.11+ fixes these issues. What's the best way to use something newer than the regualr packages? Does someone out there have a CentOS repo with a newer samba? Should I just use the Fedora packages? Thanks, Matt

vsftp vs shell logins
by techlist 29 Jan '06

29 Jan '06

I need to be able to allow specific system accounts to ftp to a box. As far as I can tell I have to give them a shell in /etc/passwd (i.e. /bin/bash) in order for their ftp login to work. I do *not* however want them to be able to log into a shell or ssh session. I cannot restrict by IP. What's the best way to accomplish this? Thanks, Scott

install won't boot
by Jeff Lasman 29 Jan '06

29 Jan '06

Circumstances: The system is a hardware duplicate of a system that installed and works for many months. Running CentOS 4.x. The system was previously in service with CentOS 3.x and I'm trying to install CentOS 4.1 on it from downloaded CDs which have worked previously (these are the same CDs used to install the system that's working). Software RAID. Minimal packages System appears to install properly, then on first reboot halts with error: (note that this is hand copied, not cut-and-pasted, so there may be errors in spelling <frown): ... Creating block devices Creating root device Mounting root filesystem kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Freeing unused kernel memory: 228k freed Warning: unable to open an initial console. and system halts with nothing else on screen. I even tried downloading the entire /boot partition contents from the working machine and installing the contents on the /boot partition on the local machine. Same problem. I was supposed to get this server into the data center; it's now 02:19. I'm going home to get a few hours sleep. Any suggestions? Help appreciated. Thanks.

pgadmin3
by Craig White 29 Jan '06

29 Jan '06

Anyone been able to get pgadmin3 installed on CentOS-4 ? The WxGTK2 stuff makes it impossible for me to get installed from RPM/SRPM from their site and likewise, couldn't rebuild from Fedora SRPMS either. I figure between Jim and Owen and ???, somebody might have succeeded where I would be doomed. I can get around with phppgadmin but pgadmin3 is pretty cool. Thanks Craig
