dropping 4.1 from the mirror network
by Karanbir Singh 19 Oct '05

19 Oct '05

Hi guys, Just to let everyone know that we are going to be dropping the 4.1 tree from the mirrors shortly. All mirrors should now have 4.2 and the symlink for /centos/4/ should be pointing to /centos/4.2/. - K -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219@icq

CentOS-4.2 release and msync.centos.org mirrors
by Johnny Hughes 16 Oct '05

16 Oct '05

All, We are going to be securing rsync on the msync (also us-msync and eu- msync) mirrors to allow us to push the CentOS-4.2 tree to all the mirrors and get them up and running. This will probably happen about 2 hours from now. We are trying this method to minimize the time that mirrors are out of date with unusable yum configurations. Also, if you upgrade your rsync on your mirror to > 2.6.4 (you can get that from dag's repo) then you can use the "--delay-updates" option to minimize the time your mirror has unusable yum metadata. As soon as all the servers are back on line, I will make an announcement on this list again. Thanks, Johnny Hughes

If you are looking to mirror the entire CentOS Public Mirror you need about 60 Gigs of storage, The requirements jump a bit when there is a new release since we will have both tree's for a few days ( eg. 4.1 and 4.2 are both live at the moment ), we will take 4.1 off soon. There are somethings that we dont distribute out to public mirrors, purely for the sake of disk space usage. This includes : Beta / Testing versions of the distro's ( http://beta.centos.org ), debuginfo and deprecated pkgs + tree's ( http://vault.centos.org) and we also dont distribute DVD .iso images out ( only available via bittorrent ) - K

Please permanently remove LittleProjects.org from the Mirrors List
by Shawn M. Jones 14 Oct '05

14 Oct '05

Hi all, Unfortunately, as a private web server renter, due to disk space constraints I can not afford to support a CentOS mirror any longer. Thanks for the support and the experience. I'll look for other ways that I can help out CentOS. It's been a fun ride. Sincerely, Shawn M. Jones

Disk Space Constraints
by Shawn M. Jones 13 Oct '05

13 Oct '05

Due to the increase in space that CentOS is taking up, I've had to split the mirror across two hard drives. Any suggestions on how I would structure the rsync commands to facilitate this? Thanks, Shawn M. Jones

New Releases
by Karanbir Singh 10 Oct '05

10 Oct '05

Hi guys, CentOS 4.2 will be released in the next couple of days time, this is just a heads up - the following tree's will be released initially: i386 x86_64 ia64 s390 s390(x) Alpha Source Code ( SRPMS ) There will be a short lag ( 7 days ) before the 4.1 tree is removed completely, so you might want to make sure there is enough space on the mirrors to handle the extra pkgs. Also, ensure that you are running rsync with the -H option so hardlinks are handled properly. - K -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219@icq

Halted Web Server Compromise
by Shawn M. Jones 29 Sep '05

29 Sep '05

I discovered this morning that SELinux had stopped a user from executing commands through my apache web server. He was using a vulnerability in php-pear to get in, which I had patched a few months ago. Unfortunately, I had foolishly not restarted the apache service after the patch, so he started adding interesting scripts to my temp directories. I'm going to perform a partial rebuild of the server. By what I can tell, he was not able to leave his SELinux jail and execute any programs. I've used rpm to validate the MD5 checksums of all package files and verified that the only ones that came back were ones that I had modified. As he was restricted to executing everything as the apache user with a security context of root:system_r:httpd_sys_script_t, he was not able to start any of the back doors or IRC bots that he had placed on the system, but I am concerned about the content accessible to httpd_sys_script_t, so I'm going to remove all web server related material and restore it from backups. What I did not back up was the mirror of CentOS, which I need to rebuild as a precautionary measure. I'm currently removing alias to the CentOS mirror on the server. Please remove me from the CentOS mirrors page until I get the system rebuilt. Sorry for the inconvenience. Sincerely, Shawn M. Jones Admin of the LittleProjects.org site in VA, USA

using the --delay-update switch in rsync >= 2.6.4
by Johnny Hughes 15 Sep '05

15 Sep '05

We have upgraded the rsync used on the centos mirrors to a version >= 2.6.4 so that we can use the --delay-updates flag for rsyncing. This flag (if you have rsync >= 2.6.4) will download all the updates, then move them into place ... so for items like yum repos, there is a much shorter time that the repo is not usable during long updates. If you have rsync >= 2.6.4, we recommend you use this switch for CentOS rsyncs. See the below e-mail for info: > > >> While a CVS commit is in progress, for instance, other users still see the previous > > >> state; this is not true for a YUM repository. > > > > >> Hmm.
