[OT] 3Ware 9.2.1.1 firmware for 9000 series released
by Kirk Bocek 01 Sep '05

01 Sep '05

Here are the version numbers I get after installing the 9.2.1.1 release: Model 9500S-4LP Firmware FE9X 2.08.00.003 Driver 2.26.03.019fw BIOS BE9X 2.03.01.052 Boot Loader BL9X 2.02.00.001 A bit confusing. I thought I saw a map of code set releases to various version numbers but I couldn't find it on 3Ware's site. On Sun, 28 Aug 2005 at 9:20am, Bryan J.

Can't mount FAT32 partition
by Dave Gutteridge 01 Sep '05

01 Sep '05

I am trying to mount a FAT32 partition in CentOS. I'm following the instructions on this page: http://www.linuxforum.com/linux_tutorials/14/1.php This is the line I put into /etc/fstab /dev/hda /mnt/windows vfat users,owner,rw,umask=000 0 0 And this is the error I get: [root@localhost mnt]# mount -a mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda, or too many mounted file systems What is the cause of this error? For reference, this is the output of fsisk: [root@localhost mnt]# fdisk -l Disk /dev/hda: 30.0 GB, 30020272128 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3649 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 3649 29310561 c W95 FAT32 (LBA) Disk /dev/hdb: 30.7 GB, 30738677760 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 3737 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdb1 * 1 3644 29270398+ 83 Linux /dev/hdb2 3645 3737 747022+ f W95 Ext'd (LBA) Dave

[OT] DNS - asking for your opinion
by Simone 01 Sep '05

01 Sep '05

Hi list, I first apologise because this is really off topic, but I would really appreciate your opinion on this. I have had a very hard time configuring a DNS server to answer reverse dns queries, and I would like to have your opinion on my provider behaviour. We have 3 classless subnets and asked the provider to delegate reverse dns. They configured their server and emailed me all was fine but i it didn't work for one subnet, so I mailed back and they assure their side was all perfectly configured. I finally find out (spending lot of time and thanks to www.dnsstuff.com) that they configured 2 zones like 128/27.x.x.x.in-addr.arpa and one as 128-27.x.x.x.in-addr.arpa, so my server was not able to answer queries because I had all zones 128/27.x.x.x.in-addr.arpa. As said before it is my first time configuring Bind and I am sure the more experienced would have notice and solved it quite soon, but still I wonder why to use different convention (without telling us) and even if this is correct (red the http://rfc.net/rfc2317.html and they always use "/" not "-" ). Hope I won't be banned from the list for this email...... Thanks for your time reading this Simone

Show ShutDown steps
by BRUCE STANLEY 01 Sep '05

Is there a way to make Centos 4.1 show you the shutdown steps it is executing without having to hit a key on the keyboard (such as in Fedora Core 2 or Red Hat 9)?

My CentOs 4.1 desktop starts to freez ( non-responsive) with 100% cpu usage
by mohamed yusuf 01 Sep '05

01 Sep '05

It starts to become a non-responsive from time to time with 100% cpu usage eventhough there is no applications running except a browser. I have been running centos 4 for the past 6 months without any problem with regular update. Now, I have to reboot whenever it shows signs of a non-response. It starts to exhibit this behaviour a cople of days ago. I could not figure it out the reason and need help. Is there any tools to troubleshoot this ? I have tried top, system monitor.. I have attache screen shoot of system monitor if it helps. Mohamed Yusuf __________________________________________________________ Find your next car at http://autos.yahoo.ca

'Many' packages installed - CentOS 4.1
by Tom Brown 01 Sep '05

01 Sep '05

Hi Installed my first CentOS box last night after coming from Whitebox - This is perhaps me being stupid but on install i opted for 'Custom' install as i prefer minimal and then build as i suit. I went through the list of things to install and removed everything apart from networking. Install happenned and tons of stull ended up being installed including X openoffice and the like - Why was that when i de-selected everything apart from networking? It was very much bloatware and not what i want on a server. thanks for any hints

(PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) Description : PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it easy for developers to write dynamically generated webpages. PHP also offers built-in database integration for several commercial and non-commercial database management systems, so writing a database-enabled webpage with PHP is fairly simple. The most common use of PHP coding is probably as a replacement for CGI scripts. The mod_php module enables the Apache Web server to understand and process the embedded PHP language in Web pages. ---------------- Update Information: This update is considered important by the CentOS Development Team. A bug was discovered in the PEAR XML-RPC Server package included in PHP. If a PHP script is used which implements an XML-RPC Server using the PEAR XML-RPC package, then it is possible for a remote attacker to construct an XML-RPC request which can cause PHP to execute arbitrary PHP commands as the 'apache' user. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2005-2498 to this issue. All Users of PHP-5 from the CentOSPlus Repo should upgrade to these updated packages.

Mod_auth_mysql
by Thomas E Dukes 01 Sep '05

01 Sep '05

Hello, I just upgraded from WBEL 4 to Centos 4.1 per the FAQ. I'm pretty sure after running 'yum update', mysql and apache were updated. I was previously using mod_auth_mysql under WBEL 4 to password protect several directories but now things seem to be broken. When I go to a password protected directory I get an Internal Server Error 500. The only explanation in the error log is "no user file?" Any ideas? TIA

Has anyone had any success getting this chipset's ATA RAID controller to appear under CentOS 4.1? If so, can they break it down for me in easy to understand steps?
