samba windows 2000 and windows 2003
by Peter Farrow 24 Nov '05

24 Nov '05

Dear All, I have two AD domains, one running on Windows 2000 and one running on Windows 2003. Each with XP clients, and no trust. Ihave a linux file server running samba 3 on Centos 4.2, the smb.conf file specifies that security=server, and points the password server to the operations master on the Windows 2000 domain. All clients and 2000 servers on the Windows 2000 domain, (xp or otherwise) can access the smb shares on the linux box no problem. The windows 2003 server and XP clients on that domain cannot, first time round they receive the error "The request is not supported", after adding this: client signing = auto to my smb.conf file I get the error "the filename, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect." I tried disabling packet signing on the win2k3 box group policy - it made no difference. I disconnect the linux server from using the windows 2000 server as a password server and setup up separate smb accounts and it works fine from the win2k3 box. I believe this is something to do with packet signing but just cant seem to find out the problem. I fixed this on a previous linux server the other way round (mounting 2k3 on Linux, but can't remember how I did it), I note that that server has a /proc/fs/cifs directory where I can kill packet signing, but the new server with the current problem does not. However I don't recall installing cifs nor does it seem to be on the older server. Any ideas? Pete

trimming CentOS - flash disk
by mbneto 24 Nov '05

24 Nov '05

Hi, I am switching a few specific servers with CentOS 4.2 and I'd like to use in some a flash disk (CF card). Unfortunately the minimum size of a centos install seems to be around 600 Mb (at least that's what I got) and 1 Gb card are still expensive and, IMHO too big if all you want is a gateway/iptables machine or a NFS server. There are other OSes and even distros that have a smaller footprint (way down to 60 Mb), and I am not talking about those 'embedded' distros like monowall, openwrt etc. I was wondering if there is a quick way to reduce the size and if there is a "slim process" in the works to do that.

RE: [CentOS] Frontpage Extensions
by Bob Pierce 24 Nov '05

24 Nov '05

William, The package from nuonce.net sounds interesting. But if that doesn't work for you, the extensions from Ready To Run do work on Centos4.2. We just finished putting together a hosting server with FP extensions on Centos4.2. Although there are a few initial headaches with configuring everything properly most of the tips we needed came from the ready2run site. If you run into specific problems feel free to ask. Our server's been working good for a few months now. We just have to be careful about the permissions on /var/log/httpd/fpcgisock after yum updates.

Where is the proper place to set the group ownership of devices under /dev/ in Centos3.
by Alexander Georgiev 24 Nov '05

24 Nov '05

Dear list members, I have a DVD writer /dev/scd0 which after reboot has the following ACL: brw-rw---- 1 root disk 11, 0 Sep 9 2004 /dev/scd0 However I want to set this device group to "Domain Users" in order to enable its members to burn DVDs. If i invoke: #chgroup "Domain Users" /dev/scd0 the next reboot will override the group back to "disk". Is there a standard/reglamented way to set the group ownership of a device file. Best regards! ageorgiev

Warnings for package kernel-2.6.9-22.0.1.106.unsupported
by Collins Richey 24 Nov '05

24 Nov '05

FYI, During my bi-weekly yum update, I noted the following warnings. Warnings during kernel update kernel-2.6.9-22.0.1.106.unsupported WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-22.0.1.106.unsupported/kernel/fs/afs/kafs.ko needs unknown symbol afs_key_unregister WARNING: /lib/modules/2.6.9-22.0.1.106.unsupported/kernel/fs/afs/kafs.ko needs unknown symbol afs_key_register Is this anything to worry about? If I read this right, the error is for AFS, and I could care less whether AFS works or not. -- Collins Richey Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code ...

[Hardware] Good Server I/O on-the-cheap: ASL Monarch 811x with CentOS 4.2 ...
by Bryan J. Smith 24 Nov '05

24 Nov '05

Since good server designs have come up in the past, I wanted to point out a "low-cost" server option that has good I/O, and the vendor offers _your_choice_ of not only Fedora Core or Red Hat Enterprise Linux, but _also_ CentOS _shipped_ with it! IN-A-NUTSHELL ... Starting at just over $750, you can get a single Socket-939 Opteron 1xx (dual-core is an option) system with up to 4GiB of ECC (but non- registered) DDR SDRAM, up to 4 hot-swap SATA bays (8114 model), one PCI- X slot (perfect for a 3Ware card, which they _do_ support ;-) and dual on-board GbE Broadcom NICs -- all in a 1U rackmount form-factor. The resulting I/O performance is excellent at the price-point for those that want a good server I/O well beyond typical "desktop/workstation" but for around the same price. The 4 hot-swap drive configuration, with a decent amount of RAM, 3Ware card with the 4 drives in RAID-10 or 5, and, most importantly, with CentOS 4.2 shipped runs just a little over $2K. Not really much more than an equivalent "self-assembled desktop" you might be able to put together, while being a heck of a lot better in interconnect configuration and resulting server performance. ASL Monarch 8110/8114/8115 (Left Column): http://www.aslab.com/products/storage/monarch.html NOW THE TECHNOBABLE I'M INFAMOUS FOR ... ASL Monarch Series, 811x with ServerWorks HT1000 Chipset I haven't purchased anything from ASL in years, but back when I was working in the semiconductor industry, the sysadmin at Transmeta turned me on to them. The really know their hardware and Linux compatibility, and they have been shipping products with 3Ware for years. They are now shipping their Monarch 811x series of products (not to be confused with a _separate_ vendor called Monarch Computer Systems ;-) with the Broadcom ServerWorks HT1000 chipset: http://www.broadcom.com/products/Enterprise-Small-Office/SystemI-O-Chips/HT… The ServerWorks HT1000 is rarely found without the HT2000, hence why you typically only find them in dual or quad socket boxen. And that combination competes against serverboards with the AMD8131/8132, which are also typically only found in dual or quad socket boxen. The number of channels, traces, etc... is why it's never cost-effective to make a single processor with an AMD8131. But in the case of the single chip HT1000 on its own -- with dual-GbE NICs and a single PCI-X channel, plusall legacy PC peripherals logic necessary, it _was_ designed to be standalone. So if I had to guess from the specs, the mainboard is the SuperMicro H8SSL-i (although I have not confirmed it): http://www.supermicro.com/Aplus/motherboard/Opteron/HT1000/H8SSL-i.cfm The H8SSL-i is _not_ available via retail channels, only select OEMs. So you can't just go out and buy it. Unless you just want a 2 SATA drive version (the 8110 or 14" shallow 8115), the 8114 offers up to 4 SATA hot-swap bays in a sub-20" deep 1U rackmount: http://www.aslab.com/products/storage/monarch8114.html They seem to be supporting the latest 3Ware Escalade 9550SX, which it too new to trust IMHO. But if they feel differently, I'd trust them. At the same time, it wouldn't surprise me if they'd sell it with a Escalade 8506 series instead -- which I do trust (especially since with only 4 drives, I'd probably create a RAID-10 volume), and only default to the 9550SX because most customers want RAID-5. -- Bryan J. Smith b.j.smith(a)ieee.org http://thebs413.blogspot.com ------------------------------------------------------------------- For everything else *COUGH*commercials*COUGH* there's "ManningCard"
