26 Dec '05

Are there any caveats to yum upgrade from 4.1 to 4.2? And can someone tell me if perl-5.8.6 is in 4.2? <<JAV>>

More YUM and logwatch
by Robert 26 Dec '05

26 Dec '05

I looked in the Fedora list archives and found several references to logwatch not working right in FC3. (FC1 & FC2 were O.K.) This post is definitive: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=fedora-list&m=111294403802213&w=2

Can you recommend a PHP accellerator that works with my CentOS 4.2 64-bit version? If it's possible, I'd like to find one that is actively updated. Thanks, Ron Jones Alpharetta, GA

3ware RAID controller scripts
by Bob Lewkowitz 26 Dec '05

26 Dec '05

Hello list, I see through the archives that some people here use 3ware RAID controllers with Centos. I have picked up two 9500S-4LP controllers for future servers. I was hoping that if some people could please share their 3ware monitoring scripts with the rest of the group. What I am really hoping to do is have some setup where a cron job runs scripts to test each of the drives connected to the controller to make sure they are not going to break any time soon and then check the health of the array itself. I am used to using smartd for basic SCSI and IDE drives but not connected to this adapter. Any good souls out there want to spread the knowledge? thx, Bob

need kernel 2.6.10 on Centos 4.2 switch to Fedora or compile kernel from source ?
by Vikas 26 Dec '05

26 Dec '05

Currently I have 2.6.9-22.0.1.EL but i need 2.6.10 or higher, since: 1. I need ipt_CONNMARK 2. The servers are throwing kernel panicks on 2.6.9 and they worked fine when they were running fedora core 3 with the kernel 2.6.10-1.760 So my question is: Do i switch the servers back to fedora. Or do I compile the kernel from source. Or is there a 3rd way out. Merry christmas and happy holidays :) S

ATRpms repo question...
by Jose Alburquerque 25 Dec '05

25 Dec '05

Hi. I'm fairly new with CentOS but have been using version 4.2 with great satisfaction (Thank you!). I've been using repos such as Dag and Dries successfully to keep my packages up to date. (I've seen many posts which allow me to believe that these repos won't change CentOS compatibility to RHEL4 or to migrate it another distro for that matter!) My question applies to the ATRpms repo (which has el4 rpms). Can I safely use this repo to "yum update" my system? When I added the repo to the yum repos (and to the up2date repos as well), I noticed more than 100 packages to be updated (some seem to be system packages like alsa-lib, autoconf, glib2, etc.) Can I update with this repo and maintain same basic system and functionality? Thanks for your answers. Sincerely Jose

yum-utils and yum-utils-plugins
by Johnny Hughes 25 Dec '05

25 Dec '05

All, We are currently testing the yum-utils and yum-utils-plugins in the dev.centos.org repository. The two main plugins that this allows that I think would be great for normal users are protectbase and fastestmirror. See the announcement on the centos-devel list for details: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2005-November/000947.html Thanks, Johnny Hughes

sata centos 4.2
by mw 24 Dec '05

24 Dec '05

I have one SATA drive with windows xp installed. I added a second SATA drive to install CentOS on. During the install, both drives are listed. If I use the auto-partition feature and deselect the drive with windows on it, only selecting the new drive, I get an error message that it could not create the partitions. The same thing happened a few months ago and I manually setup to partitions. This worked, but windows wouldn't boot any longer. The last time I tried this was with CentOS 4.0. I'm reluctant to mess up the windows install and want to dual boot. Searching the web brought up alot of info, but I'm still confused as to whether this should work. I'm using an Abit AN8 motherboard with no ATA hard drives, but an ATA cdrom drive (used for the install). Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks. mark markworkman(a)woh.rr.com ps. I do have a 3ware SATA card I could put in if that would make things easier.
