RE: [CentOS] Php package for Microsoft-SQL -- integrated layer 2 + layer 3 name services

Historical MAC address assignment of the name/IP 4. Digital signatures of the client (both BIND 9 and reverse engineered ADS-DNS) These is just some of many approaches that can _only_ be accomplished in an unified layer 2 + layer 3 server. -- Bryan J.

Which is why you need a _centralized_ layer 2 + layer 3 server to prevent this. If it is the centralized DNS and WINS, then all Windows and UNIX nodes trust it first and foremost, even if a rogue NetBIOS node is braodcasting. The logic of the server would not only not proxy such a node, but it would quickly report its MAC address as a "problem." -- Bryan J. Smith mailto:b.j.smith@ieee.org

New Server Donation - Thanks
by Johnny Hughes 13 Jun '05

13 Jun '05

I would like to inform the CentOS user community that we have received another new server donation. This time from EuroVPS ( http://www.EuroVPS.com/ ). I would like to thank EuroVPS, and Igor and Vasili, for working with us to get this server up and running. This one is especially nice, as they have given us more bandwidth (20 mbit/sec) than usual, and this server is in the EU, where we really need more bandwidth. If you need to host a domain, why not check out EuroVPS, or one of our other donors ( http://www.centos.org/mirrors/ ), most of which are hosting providers. If you would like to donate a server to the CentOS project, please contact us at donate_at_centos.org. What would really be great is if we could get a server or two in the Asia-Pacific region, as we don't currently have any there. Thanks, Johnny Hughes CentOS-4 Lead Developer

x86_64 duplicate packages problem with apt
by Robin Mordasiewicz 13 Jun '05

13 Jun '05

I installed Centos3.4-x86_64 and I notice that I get duplicate packages. i.e. I also notice that the duplate packages exist on the cd install as well. [root@bayamo RPMS]# rpm -qa | grep pam_krb pam_krb5-1.73-1 pam_krb5-1.73-1 when I use apt after downloading from Dag's site it complains about duplicate packages after running apt-get update. I am missing something to get my x86_64 system to update with apt the same way i386 system does, Mebbe someone can provide a hint.

Today's Topics: 1. CentOS 4 ia64 - CentOS 4.1 ia64 is available (Johnny Hughes) 2. CentOS 4 i386 - CentOS 4.1 i386 is available (Johnny Hughes) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Sun, 12 Jun 2005 12:00:48 -0500 From: Johnny Hughes <johnny(a)centos.org> Subject: [CentOS-announce] CentOS 4 ia64 - CentOS 4.1 ia64 is available To: centos-announce(a)centos.org Message-ID: <1118595648.22356.58.camel(a)myth.home.local> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" CentOS 4.1 ia64 is now available on the mirrors. CentOS 4.1 is just a re-spun ISO containing all updates through June, 10th 2005, (include all those released in EL4 Update 1). If you already have CentOS 4.0, downloading the new ISOs is not required to upgrade to CentOS 4.1. The ISOs can be downloaded via Bittorrent from this directory: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4.1/isos/ia64/ (or your closest mirror) You can upgrade CentOS 4.0 to 4.1 manually now by changing the file /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo file and replacing $releasever with 4.1 on all the repos and running "yum upgrade". If you don't want to manually edit anything now, in about 1 week CentOS-4.1 ia64 will automatically be made the default version and you will be upgraded when you run yum any time after that. Here are the CentOS-4.1 release notes detailing differences between CentOS-4.1 and the publically available upstream sources: http://mirror.centos.org/centos/4.1/os/ia64/RELEASE-NOTES-en.html -------------------------------------------------------- The below Release Notes are provided {and copyrighted} by Red Hat®,Inc.

centos' current release versions?
by Farkas Levente 13 Jun '05

13 Jun '05

hi, what is the current release versions for centos? it seems to a trivial question although: - centos/3 -> 3.4 why not to 3.5? - centos/4 -> 4.0 why not to 4.1? on the other hand # rpm -q centos-release centos-release-4-1.2 why not centos-release-4.1-2? in the current case we can't write in yum's repo file we can't write: .../centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/ since $releasever is 4 and not 4.1 (or 4.0) so we have to lean on the symlink which currently point to an older version. but even if it's point to the right version imho it'd be better if $releasever should be 4.1 rather then 4. just my 2c. yours. -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!"

Re: [CentOS] Tyan K8SE (S2892) / nForce Pro Experiences
by Bryan J. Smith <b.j.smith＠ieee.org> 13 Jun '05

13 Jun '05

From: Kirk Bocek <t004(a)kbocek.com> > Has anyone installed Linux (CentOS or other) on a Tyan K8SE (S2892) > motherboard? I'd really like to hear your experiences -- with this board > or Nvidia's nForce Pro chipset in general. I wrote a pre-sale evaluation back in January 2005 here: http://lists.leap-cf.org/pipermail/leaplist/2005-January/000532.html And there are a few updates to that evaluation too, like the fact that nVidia _does_ now _actively_ work on the GPL "forcedeth" driver (their legal obligations to prevent them from doing so actually expired months ago), so using the "nvnet" module is probably optional now. - Personal Experience and Boot/Install Considerations I have everything from a 12"x12"x5.5" MicroATX case with a Foxconn NF4K8MC-ERS in my home, 12"x12"x5.5" (with PCIe GeForce 6800GT ;-) -- nForce4 Standard -- to a huge, LianLi PC-V1200 EATX with a Tyan S2895 -- nForce Pro 2200+2050 -- in use as a workstation/ server at various clients running both Fedora Core 2+ and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4. You _can_ boot/install on the chipset with the FC2+/RHEL4 installer without issue. You do _not_ need to load the nForce drivers at all! They only contain the _legacy_ OSS (pre-ALSA) sound driver and the "nvnet" which really isn't needed with current "forcedeth" quality. This _includes_ SATA drives on the SATA channels that use the "nv_sata" driver, which is in the stock kernel now. On FC1/RHEL3, you might run into some NIC driver issues, and I want to say most definitely SATA support issues. You'll want to either upgrade the kernel to a late 2.4.23+, or use the nForce driver back with the "nvnet" and "nv_sata" drivers, possibly the "nvsound" OSS driver if you are not going to use ALSA. - The Technical Facts of the nForce4/Pro-series ... The nVidia nForce4/Ultra/SLI, 2200 (Pro) and 2050 (Pro, optional) are all legacy interconnect compatible. The PCI-Express (PCIe), PCI-X and PCI peripherial (I/O) interconnects all appear as traditional PCI logic/ busses, and the HyperTransport system interconnect is transparent thanx to its full Intel APIC/I2O compatibility. Yes, _all_ 40 PCIe and _both_ 2 PCI-X channels in the 2200+2050 combination. ;-> The peripherials on the chipsets are well supported with earlier nForce logic as of kernel 2.4.23+ and kernel 2.6.5+. nVidia has released GPL drivers for _all_ peripherals and components, including modifications to various i810 components, and the ALSA drivers work well for the common DSP/audio combinations. Intel has loosened the IP requirements on nVidia on the AGPgart, so I noticed some work has gone into more recent kernels. In fact, nVidia now uses the AGPgart in the kernel by default in its drivers. I still recommend the nVidia Standardware libGL/GLX drivers for production use _but_ stick with the 1.0-6xxx series _until_ 1.0-7xxx mature. And as I mentioned before, the "nvnet" driver is pretty optional now, and the 10/100 works _flawlessly_ with GPL "forcedeth," and the nVidia contributions in newer kernels seem to work well for 1000Mbps too. If you have trouble with 1000Mbps, consider upgrading your kernel or switching to the "nvnet" driver on older kernels. > I'm looking to build a new server using this board but would like to > find some other experiences first. I've googled myself blue but haven't > found any reviews or postings regarding this motherboard and Linux. If you stick with Fedora Core 3 / RHEL 4 (CentOS 4), then you shouldn't run into any issues at all -- not boot, install or otherwise. Make sure you upgrade to the latest 2.6.x kernel to get the most stable forcedeth driver. -- Bryan J. Smith mailto:b.j.smith@ieee.org
