4.1 being dropped from mirrors
by Karanbir Singh 20 Oct '05

20 Oct '05

Hi guys, Just to let everyone know that the CentOS 4.1 tree will be dropped from the mirrors shortly, since 4.2 has now been out for a week. If anyone has their yum config's hardwired to point at 4.1 - those config's will now stop working. The 4.1 repo's will be available at http://vault.centos.org/ once they are removed from http://mirror.centos.org/ ( and all external mirrors ). If you wish to stay with 4.1, keep in mind that updates and security fix's are no longer pushed out for 4.1, and therefore we recommend everyone moves to 4.2, if you have not already done so. - K -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219@icq

Newbie : Tar question
by Truejack 20 Oct '05

20 Oct '05

How did I overwrite a file to in "tar" file. For example I have file "backup.tar" in my home directory, which contains two file "x.sh" and "y.sh" I made some changes to one of the file "x.sh" and want to update the " backup.tar" I use tar -uvf, but this appends at the end of the tar file, but what I want is replace the file. The only way, I know of right now is, delete the file by issuing the following command tar --delete --file=backup.tar x.sh and then adding the file again using tar -uvf backup.tar x.sh Is there a better way of doing this, on a single command. Thanks in Advance

Easiest virtual mail setup?
by Morten 20 Oct '05

20 Oct '05

Hi. I wish to configure a CentOS 4.1 box to be a mail server. I'd like a setup with virtual mail accounts, using eg. exim, courier and mysql. Do any applications exist that already combine this in an easy to deploy manner (yum as far as possible)? I've seen XAMS.org but that's discontinued. Br, Morten

Re: [CentOS] Duplicated packages after yum crash
by chris hammond 20 Oct '05

20 Oct '05

I had the the duuplicate rpms happen on a x86_64 install and rpm didn't crash to cause it. I basically listed all installed rpms and removed the older versions of the rpms that were dupilcated and did another yum update and all seems ok.

What I'm doing is using rpm -V to verify the packages that are duplicated. For example, the newer glibc package seems to verify just fine. And the old gives a lot of errors. # rpm -V glibc-2.3.4-2.13 ........C /usr/lib64/gconv/gconv-modules.cache .......T. c /etc/rpc ........C /usr/lib/gconv/gconv-modules.cache # rpm -V glibc-2.3.4-2.9 .......T. c /etc/rpc S.5....T. /lib/i686/libc-2.3.4.so S.5....T. /lib/i686/libm-2.3.4.so Can I assume yum installed the newer version and just wasn't able to remove the old entry somehow ? I tried to remove the older apr package and it seems it worked... but glibc is.. special. Thanks in advance, -- Giovanni P.

Duplicated packages after yum crash
by Giovanni P. Tirloni 20 Oct '05

20 Oct '05

Hi, I asked yum to update all packages on my CentOS 4.1 system and glibc was among them. Yum crashed in the middle and now I've some packages installed twice: 2 zlib-1.2.1.2-1.2 2 ncurses-5.4-13 2 mysql-4.1.10a-2.RHEL4.1 2 libstdc++-3.4.4-2 2 libstdc++-3.4.3-22.1 2 libselinux-1.19.1-7 2 libgcc-3.4.4-2 2 libgcc-3.4.3-22.1 2 glibc-2.3.4-2.9 2 glibc-2.3.4-2.13 2 e2fsprogs-1.35-12.2.EL4 2 device-mapper-1.01.04-1.0.RHEL4 2 device-mapper-1.01.01-1.RHEL4 Running yum again it complains about a package conflict: Finished Transaction Test Transaction Check Error: file /usr/share/man/man1/asn1parse.1ssl.gz from install of openssl-0.9.7a-43.4 conflicts with file from package openssl-0.9.7a-43.2 This system was beatiful now I've that, ugh :( Any idea about how to fix that ? I'm afraid of touching glibc because this machine is on a datacenter 500Km away from here and it's pretty critical. -- Giovanni P. Tirloni http://tirloni.blogspot.com

DNS params on ifcfg-eth files
by carlopmart＠gmail.com 20 Oct '05

20 Oct '05

Hi all, i am using a laptop for my work. When i need to go to some customers I need to change my tcp/ip configuration every time (phisical interface and wirelss interface). Most of them do not have a dhcpd server on their networks, and i need to this changes by hand. For this pourpose i make some scripts to do this changes automatically. All works ok, But i have problems with resolv.conf (postfix depends and another soft that I use too). How can i update this file like resolvconf (http://packages.debian.org/stable/net/resolvconf) does on debian/ubuntu distros ??? Can i use ifcfg-eth config files to do this?? Thank you very much. -- CL Martinez carlopmart {at} gmail {d0t} com

yum update question
by Bowie Bailey 19 Oct '05

19 Oct '05

I am running Centos 4.2 x86_64. When I do "yum update", it shows these packages: ============================================================================ = Package Arch Version Repository Size ============================================================================ = Updating: compat-openldap i386 2.1.30-4 update 219 k netpbm i386 10.25-2.EL4.2 update 110 k nss_ldap i386 226-10 update 1.0 M nss_ldap x86_64 226-10 update 1.1 M openldap i386 2.2.13-4 update 234 k openldap x86_64 2.2.13-4 update 260 k openldap-clients x86_64 2.2.13-4 update 127 k openldap-devel x86_64 2.2.13-4 update 1.4 M openssl i686 0.9.7a-43.4 update 1.1 M openssl x86_64 0.9.7a-43.4 update 1.2 M openssl-devel x86_64 0.9.7a-43.4 update 1.6 M openssl096b i386 0.9.6b-22.4 update 614 k ruby-libs i386 1.8.1-7.EL4.2 update 1.5 M util-linux x86_64 2.12a-16.EL4.12 update 1.5 M xloadimage x86_64 4.1-36.RHEL4 update 108 k Why does it show both the i386 and the x86_64 version of some packages? Is this normal? Should I let it update both of them? Bowie

How to get GLIBCXX_3.4.4 ??
by Ryan Allen 19 Oct '05

19 Oct '05

Hi CentOS, I just completed the yum update to 4.2, hoping to get included with libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.4) for the x86_64. I need the libs to run cinelerra: [ryan@dorje]# cinelerra cinelerra: /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.4' not found (required by cinelerra) An: "rpm -q -i --provides -l libstdc++-3.4.4-2" returns: (A bunch of stuff....) libstdc++.so.6()(64bit) libstdc++.so.6(CXXABI_1.3)(64bit) libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4)(64bit) libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.1)(64bit) libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.2)(64bit) libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.3)(64bit) (A bunch more of stuff....) but no _3.4.4 :( I downloaded the 25 meg, compressed .srpm of gcc and started reading the docs. I was hoping to compile my own, but that seems to be quite the endeavor. Anybody have one (I've searched all the .rpm search sites)? How about any hints on getting just that addition to the lib suite?
