RE: [Centos] Bind Issues
by Foster, Mark 07 Feb '05

07 Feb '05

Hi John. Normally in the redhat setup the named process runs as the named user. This can be seen by running `ps -aux | egrep '[n]amed'` named 1661 0.0 0.2 40108 4836 ? S Jan31 0:25 /usr/sbin/named -u named -t /jail/named As you can see from the first column the user is named. Also the -u flag indicates the same. So if any of your slave zone files are owned by root they won't be writable by named. I recommend you chown those zone files to be owned by named user. -----Original Message----- From: centos-bounces(a)caosity.org [mailto:centos-bounces@caosity.org] On Behalf Of John Hinton Sent: Monday, February 07, 2005 8:43 AM To: CentOS(a)caosity.org Subject: [Centos] Bind Issues I'm running bind in a chroot environment. It seems that since the Redhat snafu which wrecked bind (yes, I had caching nameserver running as well but not anymore) I have been having problem with my slave nameservers retrieving updates from the master. Looking at the zone records, some are owned by root, some are owned by named. I'm now confused as to what the ownership should be and what permissions should be assigned. Could someone shed some light on this? Thanks, John Hinton _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS(a)caosity.org http://lists.caosity.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Raid 1 - further
by Nigel Kendrick 05 Feb '05

05 Feb '05

Managed to get RAID 1 working but the sync process claimed it was going to take a serious amount of time. Looking at the stats revealed that the sync operation was running at a max of 250kB/sec which seems chronically low. Basic drive performance (hdparm) tests seemed OK so I guess the controller's not up to it? The info that came with the controller was all-but-non-existent but during a reboot I noticed that it flashed up a 'press CTRL-S to enter RAID setup' for about 1/4 sec and I managed to catch it and define card/BIOS-based RAID but this got confusing because when I restarted the server, Linux could still see 'hda' and 'hdc' rather that a single 'drive' as I expected. That's where I left it as I had to go sort out a couple of WIN2K servers (mumble mumble) with trojan infections! Next week I might try putting the drives on separate controllers again and re-setup Linux software RAID, otherwise I'll check out some of the recommendations I saw earlier for better controllers. Thanks NK

bug: comps has wrong version number
by Farkas Levente 04 Feb '05

04 Feb '05

hi, comps in rh9 is comps-9-0.20030313 while in the latest centos-3.4 it's comps-3.4centos.0-0.20050105 so the rh9 has higher version number which means this packages not upgraded during an upgrade to any version of centos. and yum also not upgrade this package. imho it's a bug. is there any way to find out what other packages is remain from some older rh version? yours. -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!"

SATA - SIL3112A controller
by Nigel Kendrick 03 Feb '05

03 Feb '05

Hi folks, I have just installed a PCI SATA controller based on the SIL3112A chipset into my Centos-3 (latest kernel patches applied) system and moved an existing (not the boot disk) SATA drive from the onboard controller to the SIL-based one so I can setup software RAID with two 300GB drives. Kudzu/Linux found the controller and drives straight away and they've appeared as 'hda' and 'hdc'. I've managed to partition hdc (hda was already setup) and format it - this was VERY slow and 'top' showed a significant amount of interrupt time. A bit of Googling found the right command to enable DMA (hdparm -X66 -d1 /dev/hda etc.) and this seems to have cured that problem! While Googling I found a LOT of info on the SIL controller and Linux but it was all for various kernels and linux versions - can anyone steer me in the right direction for info on this setup with RHEL3/Centos - specifically: 1) Should I just use the native SATA drivers like I'm doing now or are there better ones to use? 2) Are there any drivers that will use the BIOS-based software RAID or is using the Linux software RAID the way to go? 3) Tweaks and recommendations for the setup would be appreciated. The system is going to be used as a backup server for bacula with various clients dumping data via 512K broadband and so the performance of the RAID system does not need to be blazingly fast - hence the I'm seeing if the cheap (£14!) controller is Ok for the job before trying anything else. Any info or pointers appreciated. Thanks Nigel Kendrick
