CentOS 4
by John Hinton 26 Feb '05

Has RedHat... oops... those folks in North Carolina decided to drop support for Pentium II machines in EL4? I have this old Compaq 3000R 300mHtz P2 which will never die, which makes for a really nice test base for new releases. Maybe the EL people have decided their subscriptions per year cost more than this server is worth and no one in their right mind would install EL4 on such equipment? Well, they are wrong, I am very left handed which makes me one of the ones who thinks in their right mind! Thanks for all the hard work! John Hinton

Packages on demmand
by User Lists 26 Feb '05

26 Feb '05

Hi all, I have four servers (one with redhat 7.3, two with CentOS 3.4 and one with CentOS 4 for testing). I would like to do a partial package mirror with os, updates, contrib branches and so on. Anybody knows if exists any tool for redhat based distros, like apt-proxy in debian world ( that donwloads packages on demmand), that supports this feature?? I see yam tool from dag repository, but it needs that do a full mirror ... and I don´t have as much disk space.

An announce list is standard fare, not like we are talking about something that would be terrible to maintain here. Create a list that does not allow posts, send it a message when a new package is available. Boom, 0 administration, almost 0 storage, very little resources. It is good practice and you will get a lot of subscribers that don't want to see the day to day traffic or visit the site constantly. -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)caosity.org [mailto:centos-bounces@caosity.org] On Behalf Of Francois Caen Sent: Thursday, February 24, 2005 5:55 PM To: CentOS discussion and information list Subject: Re: [Centos] Re: centos-announce list?

That would work, I could filter based on it. > I am not sure that more mailing lists will help to be a community. IMHO. Different people have different needs and interests. I'm already part of other communities like my local LUG. So I'm mostly interested in Announces from Centos, not really in "how do I burn CDs?" and the like.

permanent ulimit -n on CentOS 3.4
by Mike Obvious 25 Feb '05

25 Feb '05

Hi! Question from the novice. I have to permanently increase number of opened files ( ulimit -n 16384 and ulimit -Hn 16384) for some application. I did custom kernel based on https://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-3-Manual/sysadmin-guide… and application documentation ( written for RH 9), no error during all makes but I have panic during the boot. ( It's Dell SC1425, dual CPU, 2GB RAM, i686-based kernel). Is there any other way to do it ? Thanks, Michael

A valid question. I would say to both. It would be minimal traffic to add to this list and may catch folks that didn't think they needed to subscribe to the announce list. -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)caosity.org [mailto:centos-bounces@caosity.org] On Behalf Of John Hinton Sent: Thursday, February 24, 2005 9:13 PM To: CentOS discussion and information list Subject: Re: [Centos] Re: centos-announce list? OK.. after all the stink about creating an announce list.... :) (yes, I was for it, too) So, now the next logical question. Will announements be made 'only' to the announce lists or will they be made to this list as well? I'm sorry, but I'm finding myself about to fall out of my chair laughing at all of this. Such a good group and we get in a stink over an announce list.. too funny.
