Hello, I'm running CentOS 4.4 and am getting an error from smartd. This machine has a single ide drive in it /dev/hda and i was getting a bootup error from smartd, so i uncommented the /dev/hda line in /etc/smartd.conf. The error persisted when i tried to restart smartd, i got a service restart failed and the below error. Any suggestions? On another unrelated subject i'm looking for an ncftp rpm for CentOS i didn't find one in the included repositories. Thanks. Dave.
