[CentOS] First official release candidate of the com.oonics open shared root cluster installation DVD is available (RC3)
Hello, we are very happy to announce the availability of the first official release candidate of the com.oonics open shared root cluster installation DVD (RC3). The com.oonics open shared root cluster installation DVD allows the installation of a single node open shared root cluster with the use of anaconda, the well known installation software provided by Red Hat. After the installation, the open shared root cluster can be easily scaled up to more than hundred cluster nodes. You can now download the open shared root installation DVD from www.open-sharedroot.org. We are very interested in feetback. Please either file a bug or feature or post to the mailinglist (see www.open-sharedroot.org). More details can be found here: http://www.open-sharedroot.org/news-archive/availability-of-first-beta-of-the-com-oonics-version-of-anaconda. Note: The download isos are based on Centos5.1! Have fun testing it and let us know the outcome. -- Gruss / Regards, Marc Grimme http://www.atix.de/ http://www.open-sharedroot.org/ ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Essentially, IIUC, vgexport updates the LVM configuration to remove the group from the system. I *guess* it might also put some status information into the descriptors on the volume being removed so that critical information is available when a vgimport is done. I can tell you from first-hand experience that moving the volume without doing this makes for extra work when re-installing, though I can say that it can be done.

Yes, for now I am just editing fstab and grub.conf by hand, but it might be possible to automate it somehow in a script, using e2label to find the correct device names.

Setting up anti-spam and anti-virus software can be a very tedious process. I tried various approaches over a period of months before hitting upon our current solution. We now use MailScanner to integrate spamassassin and clamav into our sendmail MTA. This seems to be the least burdensome from a maintenance point of view and still provides a useful degree of configurability . postfix + amavisd-new is not hard to setup: http://www.postfix.org/documentation.html http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/README.postfix.html note that both amavisd-new and mailscanner rely on spamassassin for spam filtering (so spamassassin must be installed).

RE: [CentOS] build custom kernel
You'll get the huge kernel if you accidentally mark all the modules to be compiled in instead of modularized. Make sure the modules are marked 'M'. Why not just take the latest Fedora 8 kernel SRPM and with rpmbuild build it on CentOS?

[CentOS] Fwd: ath_pci in modprobe.conf on Centos/Fedora
hi friends, i am sending this to centos mailinglist as i didnt solved problem and guys from madwifi are probably dead, as they are not giving me any reply . Thanks D. -- Forwarded message -- From: David Hláčik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, Mar 19, 2008 at 11:39 AM Subject: ath_pci in modprobe.conf on Centos/Fedora To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi friends, i am loooking for help as i am unable to solve it by myself Scenario is following : I have two atheros cards, one works as AP (for local wifi network), second one as STA (connection to internet trought 13dB wifi anthena) My current scenario is that i am loading module with autocreate=none i have in modprobe.conf : options ath_pci autocreate=no and then in /etc/rc.local script i will create from wifi0 ap , from wifi1 station and configure other settings (ip adresses and so). What i am trying to do, is to put all configuration to modprobe.conf using install and remove directives What i want as a result is to create during startup and loading module AP from wifi0 (ath0) and STA from wifi1 (ath1) i have tried to put to modprobe.conf : install wifi /sbin/modprobe ath_pci autocreate=none; /usr/local/bin/wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode ap; /usr/local/bin/wlanconfig ath1 create wlandev wifi1 wlanmode sta remove wifi /sbin/modprobe -r ath_pci next what i want to do is not to load ath_pci module automatically during startup , but to load instead that wifi module , and here comes my problem, how can i do it?? If i try install ath_pci /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ath_pci; /sbin/modprobe wifi install wifi /sbin/modprobe ath_pci autocreate=none; /usr/local/bin/wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode ap; /usr/local/bin/wlanconfig ath1 create wlandev wifi1 wlanmode sta remove wifi /sbin/modprobe -r ath_pci It does not work.

[CentOS] simple DNS question - reverse nslookup fails.
Hello all, I am trying to configure a subdomain DNS server on a Cent OS 5.1 - for my lab. Brief configuration: Lab machine ---> 192.168.17.2 (should respond to DNS queries from hosts in 192.168.16.0/20 network) 1. I would also like to forward any queries outside the above network to our corporate domain (no firewalls between our 192.168.16.x network and the corporate network. The domain server is: dns.company.com with an IP of 10.100.1.2 (255.255.255.0). 2. What I have configured is: 192.168.17.2 --> myhost.lab.company.com 10.100.1.2 --> dns.company.com 3. Installed the dns bind 9 in myhost and set basic configuration via the system-config-bind GUI. My configuration file specific to my setup there is: cat lab.maxiscale.com.db $TTL 1H @ SOA myhost.lab.company.com. root.myhost.lab.company.com. ( 2 3H 1H 1W 1H ) NS myhost.lab.company.com. qaserver2 A 192.168.17.3 qaserver1 A 192.168.17.1 myhost A 192.168.17.2 = The rest of the DNS/Bind records were based upon the auto-generated files from the Bind GUI Config tool. 3. I also changed myhost's resolv.conf to reflect the following: search lab.mycompany.com 192.168.17.2 search mycompany.com 10.100.1.2 == PROBLEM: 1. When I am in myhost.com, I can perform: a. nslookup hostname (to any host within 192.168.x and 10.100.x networks) b. nslookup ip to anyhost wtihin both networks. 2. When I am in one of the hosts within 192.168.x aside from myhost.com (for example, qaserver1 or qaserver2): a: SUCCESS to nslookup hostname to any host within BOTH networks. b. FAILS to nslookup ip (reverse nslookup) to anyhost within the 10.100.x network. this is the error I get: nslookup 10.100.1.2 Server: 192.168.17.2 Address:192.168.17.2#53 Non-authoritative answer: 24.1.100.10.in-addr.arpaname = dns.company.com. Authoritative answers can be found from: . nameserver = e.root-servers.net. . nameserver = f.root-servers.net. . nameserver = g.root-servers.net. . nameserver = h.root-servers.net. . nameserver = i.root-servers.net. . nameserver = j.root-servers.net. . nameserver = k.root-servers.net. . nameserver = l.root-servers.net. . nameserver = m.root-servers.net. . nameserver = a.root-servers.net. . nameserver = b.root-servers.net. . nameserver = c.root-servers.net. . nameserver = d.root-servers.net. a.root-servers.net internet address = 198.41.0.4 b.root-servers.net internet address = 192.228.79.201 c.root-servers.net internet address = 192.33.4.12 d.root-servers.net internet address = 128.8.10.90 e.root-servers.net internet address = 192.203.230.10 f.root-servers.net internet address = 192.5.5.241 g.root-servers.net internet address = 192.112.36.4 h.root-servers.net internet address = 128.63.2.53 i.root-servers.net internet address = 192.36.148.17 j.root-servers.net internet address = 192.58.128.30 k.root-servers.net internet address = 193.0.14.129 k.root-servers.net has address 2001:7fd::1 l.root-servers.net internet address = 199.7.83.42 = I must be missing something stupid and apparent any help would be greatly appreciated!!! :) thanks in advance! -- best, Vince ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
