At this point I am stuck. I need to know: how do I pair the bluetooth USB dongle with my bluetooth headset Anyone played with this yet? Jerry

High availability www+mysql
by Ugo Bellavance 11 Nov '05

11 Nov '05

Hi, I have one physical server (server1 - CentOS 4) and one vmware (server2 - CentOS running in a VM under Windows 2003). I'm running PHP/MySQL webapps on it. I want to be sure there is a failover, but I don't really need load balancing for now. I run php/mysql/apache with the binaries that comes with CentOS 4. I have installed heartbeat on both and set MySQL replication so that when server1 fails, server2 takes the requests. Heartbeat signal is going through the same NIC than regular traffic, but I'll check if I can set serial port or another NIC for that. Might be more difficult with VMWare and my service isn't that critical. Now, if server1 is unavailable, server2 takes over. It should have a current copy of the database because of the replication and the files are rsynced frequently (php). I configured heartbeat so that server1 doesn't take over if it comes back up, since it won't have a current copy of the DB. I'm not sure if I can (and if it is hard to configure) do a multiple master config with MySQL 4.1 and I'm not sure if MySQL cluster is an appropriate solution either. I looked at DRDB, but I think I would have to resize my partitions, so this is less tempting. I'd like to have opinions about my setup and how I could improve it, or test it. The logs issue is a concern, but not that much. I can live without accurate stats for the time I take to get server1 back online. TIA, Ugo

Type 'linux rescue' and press enter follow the directions... chroot /mnt/sysimage then make sure things are there... ls -l ls -l /boot etc. then to see if you can fix the boot... grub-install /dev/hda Of course this assumes that your new disk is the primary master and if that is the case, you should be able to boot from it. Craig ----------- Craig, Thanks - actually I had just done that. it does not let me chroot /mnt/sysimage. If did the fdisk -l /dev/hda and my partitions are there. It gets past the grub boot already, it is going into the firstboot screens and I get the "Show details" and service startup screen.... When I let it boot I get failed for all the startup services. It's like it is trying to work but something is not found? Very odd.... So close. Jerry

Has anyone used g4l (ghost for linux) with centos 4.2 or 4.X? I just tried it with RAW mode, it made the image on my ftp server, I then tried to restore it, seemed like it went ok, tried to reboot and it starts up looks like it is going to work but then something is not right? I am not even sure how to explain what is not right. can you share your steps. Thanks, Jerry

Re: [CentOS] VirtualHost squirrelmail and Apache

If you want a recipe that works for accessing virtual domains and squirrelmail over https (ssl) then you can see my posts at: http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum92/3543.htm However, if you are as inexperienced with apache as you appear to be with dns then you need to know that working with mod rewrite is not for the faint of heart. You can begin at: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/misc/rewriteguide.html Further, you need to configure squirrelmail itself to handle virtual servers in addition to whatever you do in apache. This feature is provided as a squirrelmail plugin. See: http://www.squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=47 I consider your questions as entirely appropriate for the CentOS mailing list. This is after all, a distribution, of which bind, apache, sendmail, cyrus-imapd, dovecot and squirrelmail are all a part, no less important than any other. When one is setting up a new system using unfamiliar software then having ready access to a group of people that have already taken the same general path that you are on is a tremendous asset. They are a great source of ancillary information regarding package inter-relationships and side issues that may not be even considered relevant on application specific forums.

[OT] Corporate Firewall
by Andrew Cotter 11 Nov '05

11 Nov '05

To put my two cents in, I have been investigating m0n0wall (http://m0n0.com/) for about six months now. I have it running on my home firewall (pc engines WRAP platform http://pcengines.ch) and have loaded it on a number of old Nokia IP330 boxes for testing. A fork of the project to also look at is pfSense (http://pfsense.com/) which is based on m0n0wall. pfSense is much more flexible in terms of add-on packages, is designed with a failover option, and multi-WAN support to name a few things. Then again how much do you want loaded on a firewall which is a topic for a whole different discussion. There is active development on both projects and both seem very usable. Andrew

Everytime I try to recompile a kernel, "make modules" always dies with the error: mv: cannot stat `include/asm-i386/asm_offsets.h.tmp': No such file or directory make: *** [include/asm-i386/asm_offsets.h] Error 1 I installed the src RPM and kernel-devel ... any ideas as to what I could be doing wrong? Thanks!!

php versions
by Mark Quitoriano 11 Nov '05

11 Nov '05

Got a question with centos/rhel php versions. because in centos 3 they're still using 4.3.2 and centos 4 which uses 4.3.9. how about the bugfixes done in 4.4 and 4.4.1? centos/rhel updates regularly like centos 3 which already updated for 6 times but still uses 4.3.2? is that mean we still suffer the bugs of the original 4.3.2? -- Regards, Mark Quitoriano, CCNA http://www.atamanetworks.com Fan the flame... http://www.spreadfirefox.com/?q=user/register&r=19441

CUPS problem with network printing - SOLVED!!! :)))
by Olaf Greve 11 Nov '05

11 Nov '05

Hi all, Yesterday I reported rather vaguely about the printing issues I was experiencing on our local network after the latest kernel update. Today, I solved it, and I'm relaying this information such that others can potentially benefit from it if they run into a similar problem. :) Firstly, I contacted Xante support and they told me I was the first to ask Linux questions; they didn't know what to do... So much for their tech support, so I then took the bull by the horns myself, and went through a debug process. The printer I need to print to has now been shared through a Mac OS X machine, which has printers shared and these printers (two in total) appear properly in the "browsed queues" in Gnome's printer set-up utility. However, printing a test page (either as ASCII, CUPS, or Postscript) still didn't work. I raised the debug level to the max (i.e. "debug2") in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and restarted cupsd. Checking the /var/log/cups/error_log shows the following relevant debug trace of a failed "print ASCII test page" command from the printer utility: I [11/Nov/2005:12:58:36 +0100] [Job 5] Connecting to dymo-labelwriter.local on port 631... I [11/Nov/2005:12:58:36 +0100] [Job 5] Unable to connect to dymo-labelwriter.local, queuing on next printer in class... d [11/Nov/2005:12:58:37 +0100] select_timeout: 86400 seconds to browse timeout a printer Soooo, the issue obviously resided in CUPS not being able to connect to port 631 on the MacOSX machine. This is where it got interesting, as I checked the MacOSX machine and that port was open (listing "IPP" as port-listener). Doing a remote port scan by the MacOSX's IP address showed a proper list of open ports, and doing so by the alias dymo-labelwriter.local only resulted in a 'host unknown' error. OMG; how blatantly obvious yet easy to overlook this issue now all of a sudden became! :P Indeed... Adding the dymo-labelwriter.local alias with it's corresponging IP address to the /etc/hosts file did the trick. Now it works fine again! Live and learn....;) 'Ave a good weekend! Olafo
