Yes you are right, we should prioritize ack's and dns requests (port 53)
at first. But this is CentOS not BSD, so we should use tc (show /
manipulate traffic control settings).

Ioannis Vranos: You should connect from a windows machine and check if
the ping reply and the download speeds are the same as on the linux
machine. If the windows machine proves to be faster, start debugging the
linux machine. 160-170 ms to your ISP's gateway seems a lot of latency
to me. I have a cable modem and an 6 ms latency to my ISP.

Sieve is a library, integrated into lmtpd, while procmail is a standalone

Do you mean http_proxy=http://:? Yes, it still happens even after I try 
proxy=http://:. Sorry for the delay answer, due to long holiday.


Thanks,



From 'man yum.conf' the syntax is 'proxy=http://:' (not http_proxy)
Anyway it may be too that apt.sw.be is busy; you could try to use the local 
mirror list changing the following lines on  /etc/yum.repos.d/rpmforge.repo:


#mirrorlist = http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/mirrors-rpmforge
mirrorlist = file:///etc/yum.repos.d/mirrors-rpmforge

Despite what I wrote previously, yeah the order seems to be important.
 Its seems like as soon as they proccess the --auto|-a they
immediately pick the name of the md device, instead of waiting till
all of the CLI is proccessed to do this.  So if you have the md device
defined after the --auto, it will pick the first available, and if you
have it defined before --auto, then it uses what you specified.
Haven't looked at the code, but this seems the only way to explain why
it matters which order.

[CentOS] GDM problems whe using LDAP for user id information

2007-11-05 Thread carlopmart

Hi all,

 I have a CentOS-5 workstation configured to retrieve user id information from 
LDAP server and password from another kerberos server.


 If I setup a user entry on /etc/passwd file all works ok, user can logon on 
GDM and password is verifiyed via kerberos.


 But If I use LDAP to retrieve user information, GDM doesn't works. On the 
other side, I can login on console using ldap for user information.


 GDM returns this error on /var/log/secure:

 Nov  5 13:45:40 deagol gdm[2484]: pam_unix(gdm:auth): check pass; user unknown
Nov  5 13:45:40 deagol gdm[2484]: pam_unix(gdm:auth): authentication failure; 
logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=:0 ruser= rhost=
Nov  5 13:45:40 deagol gdm[2484]: pam_succeed_if(gdm:auth): error retrieving 
information about user testuser


 And on /var/log/messages:

 Nov  5 13:45:41 deagol gdm[2484]: Couldn't authenticate user

 All other services that I use with ldap (ssh for example) works ok. Somebody 
knows where is the problem??


 Many thanks.

You may also want to run a netstat -ia on both machines and verify that 
there are not a bazillion connections, which might give an indication of 
a system compromise such as rootkit or botkit.  160-170ms seems awful 
high to me for such a high speed connection.

Just cat the diff to stdout.  Whatever is printed to stdout will be in the

1st suggestion: use rsync to transfer the files and you don't have to 
double-check the results, just the exit status of the command or its 
stderr output.  It will know whether the tranfer worked or not.





Is this a cronjob?  If so, then don't bother using 'mail'; just echo

and let cron handle the mailing.




Yes you are right about setting a variable, but this was supposed to be 
a quick and dirty.


Quick and dirty things don't write files and have to worry about 
filenames.  See if you can do it all through pipes if you do this at all.


I will want it to be a cronjob when its working, how can I get it to 
mail the output of the diff? and not just the stdout of the cronjob?  
The whole point of this is the get the output of the diff to someone.


It's your script, make it say what you want (and nothing else) on stdout.

Enable RPMFORGE repository:

wget

.i386.rpm

rpm --import http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt

rpm -i rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.*.rpm

Install:
yum install dkms dkms-fuse fuse-ntfs-3g



Was all I did...

Subject: [CentOS] Installing NTFS-3G

When I tried installing ntfs 3g on CentOS 5 I got an error telling me it
needed FUSE >= 2.6 I got FUSE but on attempting to install it it gives the
following error:

Fuse configure error
checking kernel source directory... Not found
configure: error:
*** Please specify the location of the kernel source with
*** the '--with-kernel=SRCDIR' option
configure: error: ./configure failed for kernel

Please let me know how to walk around this

[CentOS] what is it in dmesg?

2007-11-05 Thread ann kok
Hi all

The machine provides the name service

I got the following in the dmesg.

What is it?

Can I have rules to prevent it?

UDP: bad checksum. From outside-ip:61479 to
machine-ip:61 ulen 45
UDP: bad checksum. From outside-ip:62499 to

'outside-ip', is that the IP of this system, or some random external 
internet IP, or what?  odd, 248.32.x.x isn't a broadcast or 
multicast address AFAIK, is that part of one of your subnets or something?


I'm not sure what udp/61 is, /etc/services says 'NI-MAIL', that appears 
to be something from the dusty basement of pre-internet networking ("JNT 
mail over NIFTP").


ICMP type 3 code 3 is 'port unreachable'.  see: 
http://www.iana.org/assignments/icmp-parameters   if you block those you 
won't be able to do traceroutes.


if you just got a few of those, I'd ignore them.  if you got lots and 
lots, it may be a weak attempt at a denial of service attack




anyways, dunno why you'd need any rules, the kernel rejected those 
packets on the grounds given.

Re: [CentOS] anyone using DBMail?

2007-11-05 Thread Christopher Chan



Sieve is a library, integrated into lmtpd, while procmail is a standalone 
process (and eats resources).




I thought eating resources was a feature of procmail?

I didn't think procmail ate significantly more resources than any other 
delivery agent ?

procmail chews more memory and cpu processing power than any other 
delivery agent I know of. It chews more than maildrop does. It 
definitely chews more than the ld agents of sendmail, postfix and qmail.
