Re: [CentOS] Wierd Networking Problem

[Alain Spineux]

Did you tried to ping other host inside and outside your network, your gateway ?
If not working, did you tried to arping your gateway ?
Did you look for packet with "tcpdump -n -i eth0" ?

There is now active "contrib" repository in CentOS 5. I guess we should
disable that on the next release.

Is this an i386 or x86_64 install of CentOS.  If x86_64, it might be a
problem with having the wrong package installed and perl looking in
lib64 instead of lib for something ... or any number of other potential
issues.

That's why I opted for "throw it out" in the bug report. Same goes for
addons, although that at least has valid - if empty - repodata.

I  can successfully traceroute from the server to google.  I didn't try an 
arping.

I'll review the tcpdump messages today and let you know...

Re:Re: [CentOS] upgrade bind to version 9.3.4-P1 in centos 5.0, box

[BellHuang]

hi Jim Perrin,

thanks for your great info as following: 

No, and this is not the case. The bind version provided with centos
(all versions) has security fixes backported into them. Do not rely on
the version numbers as a means of assuming security fixes. See
http://www.redhat.com/advice/speaks_backport.html for details.

[CentOS] Systems management with "func" (new Fedora project)

[Michael DeHaan]

There's a systems management app several of us are working on in Fedora 
space many of you may be interested in... 


https://hosted.fedoraproject.org/projects/func/

Basically func is a way to address multiple-systems at once, like SSH, 
but with much easier certificate distribution and pluggable XMLRPC 
modules (written in Python), and easy scriptability.Func's 
certmaster can also be used to distribute certificates to other programs 
for use in their communications.   You can read more on the project page.


There are some interesting demo apps bundled with it, like an inventory 
application (that uses git for storing differences), and a script which 
can tell you which computers on your network have exploding laptop 
batteries :)There are also some neat modules that can gather data 
from nagios plugins without having to actually have nagios installed.


Anyhow, if you are interested, check out the project page and join the 
mailing list.We have func already submitted to Fedora, it should be 
in EPEL shortly, and if someone wants to include this in CentOS testing 
that's great too.   We are very interested in people contributing new 
modules and scripts for things they find interesting/useful.


Feedback/ideas/comments welcome.

Thanks!

Yes, time did change. And just at the right moment - when DST ended.

Maybe you should tell us in which time zone you are and which error you
are seeing.

[CentOS] handling kernel panics

[Andy Harrison]

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

I have a problem with a couple of my centos servers hitting a kernel
panic about once a week or so.

I find them sitting at a panic screen like this:

http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/1044/screenshotoakpanicma4.jpg (58k)

Two questions:

1) How do I make it reboot after a panic instead of sitting in a hung state?


2) How do I turn on logging so that I can see the entire kernel panic
message?  I tried changing syslog.conf so that kern.* goes to
/var/log/messages instead of just kern.debug, but all that did was
make booting a little more verbose in the log.

Hi,

   Set the "/proc" var (via /etc/sysctl.conf) kernel.panic to the amount of
seconds you like the panic screen stays on. After that amount of time the 
server will boot :)

[CentOS] tftp on centos 5

[Jerry Geis]

Hi all,

I have setup tftp on centos 4 before an it worked.

I am not setting up tftp on centos 5.
I have added many -v -v -v -v to the tftp config file.
/var/log/messages shows me connection from the IP address - but no errors.
My client eventually times out as the file is not being provided.

It works by the way on localhost, just not from a client. selinux is 
turned off.


I iptables turned off.
tftp is running and my files are in /tftpboot
everything is read accesss.

I did the yum install tftp-server as normal.

Nothing is in my hosts.allow and hosts.deny

why might my client be timing out...

Thanks,
Jerry

It sounds like /var/log/messages indicates DHCP success, but you still 
might not have TFTP set up correctly ... possibly a wrong next-server 
address in the DHCP
configuration file?  Is /tftpboot structured correctly?  Is tftp enabled 
for xinetd.d (it's usually off by default)?   There are lots of things 
that could be going on.


Something like Cobbler (http://cobbler.et.redhat.com/)* might help you 
with netboot setup if you aren't sure exactly what is up, and at least 
covers 90% of those
kinds of setup problems.   Getting the IP addresses right/DHCP, etc, is 
still up to you ... but it helps some with that.

Have you contacted "isp.net", whoever they are, to make sure that they
have not blackholed or tarpitted that particular machine's IP address
for some reason?

He said that the box is behind a nat and only that box behind the nat 
has a problem. I doubt that it has been specifically targetted by ip.

I've narrowed things down to not include the Linux box. :)

I took the Linux box's IP and moved it to another  non Linux machine.  The 
same issues occur.

I have the network guy reviewing things.

Woops! I seem to have forgotten the most important part. I'm in Pacific

UMMM GANG, FOR THE US AND THOSE WHO FOLLOW IT

November 4th, 0600 GMT (or 2 am East Coast)
Clocks go back minus one hour. NOT LAST WEEK,
this coming Sunday. If you have to, set your NTP
to sync with a know source like nist.time.gov or
your ISP may be running a time server as well...

MOST programs have had the patches already put into
place, thou there are possible system that may not
even know of such a thing (TRS-80's) ha ha

Later!

Re: [CentOS] ssh with proxy?

[umair shakil]

Salam,

Please explain ur proxy running linux??? if then why u use putty??? The
windows desktop
users use putty or secure crt to ssh why not using default shell
provided by proxy,

The best way of ssh is to use keys to login, with this method u r not
prompted for
password just key verification on both ends.

libtinfo from ncurses.xxx=>yyy etc.

You should update tzdata.  The current version is tzdata-2007h-1.
Then you can check if the time change is correctly set up by running
this command:

/usr/sbin/zdump -v CST6CDT | grep 2007

The output will be similar to:

CST6CDT  Sun Mar 11 07:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 01:59:59 2007 CST
isdst=0 gmtoff=-21600
CST6CDT  Sun Mar 11 08:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Mar 11 03:00:00 2007 CDT
isdst=1 gmtoff=-18000
CST6CDT  Sun Nov  4 06:59:59 2007 UTC = Sun Nov  4 01:59:59 2007 CDT
isdst=1 gmtoff=-18000
CST6CDT  Sun Nov  4 07:00:00 2007 UTC = Sun Nov  4 01:00:00 2007 CST
isdst=0 gmtoff=-21600

Hope this helps,

[CentOS] Sort imap e-mail remotely

[Patrick Lodder]

Hi all,

I have a big e-mail box over at my provider. I receive a lot of e-mail 
every day (over 100), which are distributed into different imap-folders 
by thunderbird. The problem is that thunderbird must be running 
(offcourse) to be able to it's job.

And for thunderbird to run, my (home)computer must be running.

I have a CENTOS 5 server running also. Are there any programs out there 
that work via command line or as a daemon, that i can use to sort my 
imap e-mail. I've googled a bit, but didn't come up with a 
solution(maybe I'm search with the wrong keywords). I found fetchmail & 
procmail, but I wasn't able to figure out if they can do it.


Cheers,

Patrick
