Problems with max clients being reached
by Stuart McKim 16 Oct '07

16 Oct '07

I have been trying to sync our mirror from msync.centos.org and consistently receive max connections errors. Since this seems to be the case for days on end, my mirror never gets a chance to sync. Is there a way to find out when there are times of low connections so I can choose a time that will allow me to connect? I know that if someone tells me a particular time, a whole bunch of other mirror admins will probably jump on that same time, which would be pointless. So, it would be nice to be able to see a graph with the number of connections over time to make an informed decision when this happens. I've also tried to use us-msync.centos.org, but have not had any better results. Thanks, Stuart -- Stuart McKim FTP Administrator Open Source Lab Oregon State University

How long does centos repository keep its old rpm's?
by John Lee 15 Oct '07

15 Oct '07

General question here for a total newbie here, but how far back does the centos repository keep its RPM's? For example, if a new version of cups-devel comes out, what happens to the previous version of the cups-devel RPM? Does it remain in the repository? Does it get overwritten? What if we have to revert back to the older version of the RPM? Thank you.... J

Standford mirror not syncing?
by Scott Dowdle 10 Oct '07

10 Oct '07

Greetings, I have been using the Standford mirror for rsyncing CentOS 4.5 i386 updates as well as CentOS 5.0 i386 and x86_64 updates... but I haven't seen the most recent updates announced on Oct 6th show up yet... so I'm guessing the Standford mirror isn't syncing for some reason. Any ideas? TYL, -- Scott Dowdle 704 Church Street Belgrade, MT 59714 (406)388-0827 [home] (406)994-3931 [work]

Access to msync-dvd.centos.org
by Brian Elliott Finley 09 Oct '07

Please allow access for our site (http://mirror.anl.gov) to sync from msync-dvd.centos.org. Our sync servers share a common filesystem, and only one is configured to sync at any given time, but please add both IPs: 146.137.96.12 146.137.96.64 Thanks, -Brian -- Brian Elliott Finley Linux Strategist Argonne National Lab, CIS Office: 630.252.4742 Mobile: 630.631.6621

rsync to us-msync.centos.org
by Prof. P. Sriram 08 Oct '07

08 Oct '07

i am always getting connection rejected (error max connections (40) reached) for the last 3 days or so when i try to rsync from us-msync.centos.org. i am a tier 2 mirror. i noticed that the mirror status page is showing 94 of 186 as current (meaning the rest 92 are not) - maybe because of the same problem? -- sriram ps: i tried syncing from mirrors.kernel.org and it went through, so now we are showing 95 of 186 as current ...

can you create problems with uid/gid?
by William Dunn 01 Oct '07

01 Oct '07

I noticed that /CentOS/5/os was giving me a 403 forbidden error, but /CentOS/5.0/os/ wasn't. I tracked the problem; the files in /5/ are symlinks to the files in /5.0/, but they were owned by uid 503 and the targets in /5.0/ were owned by uid 500. My server is set SymLinksIfOwnerMatch, and if possible, I'd like to keep it that way. Will I introduce any problems for my consumers by changing all file ownership to 500? -- William Dunn Unix / Linux Administrator Virginia Tech Computer Science Department wdunn(a)cs.vt.edu / 540-231-3167
