 You are right. I got a response from David Cantrell and he pointed out
 how I was going about this completely the wrong way. Will hopefully get
 this working tomorrow.

Hi Kanwar,

give the packagers a little time. The new kernel was published this 
night and the dependencies are not yet meet completely. The alternative 
would be to get the archive from http://www.linux-kvm.org/ yourself and 
build it. I did it several times, it is not that hard and you get the 
most recent version.

Greetings,
Andre

As has been said in this thread and in other threads. IE clients just need 
to import the CA certificate, then they trust all certificates signed by 
that root. Firefox can't do this. But you can trust single certs with it.

Re: [CentOS] Samba "use sendfile" configuration option set do disabled as default - why?

2009-08-25 Thread happymaster23
No, I have not any problem. With use sendfile = yes it works great. My
question is, why is this configuration option set to be off in CentOS?

You know - when I want to read something about oplocks (advantages &
disadvantages) it was very easy - there are tons of documentation.
When I want to read something about use sendfile, it is big problem,
becuse there is nothing.

My question is why is this option disabled as default in CentOS? And I
am not alone with this question -
http://fixunix.com/samba/184987-samba-red-hat-use-sendfile.html

It is two WD Caviar GP in SW RAID 1 and LVM2, so there can´t be a problem.

There are several different ways to do auto updates.

Are you talking about the graphical auto update that runs as an applet
near the date (defaults to the right hand side of the top tool bar of
CentOS)?

If so, in CentOS 5.3 that package is called pirut and the individual
file that runs is called puplet.

It seems that puplet is not working correctly after the upgrade to 5.3,
according to this bug:

http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=3565

I get the same thing when running puplet from the commandline on my machine.

We are looking at this issue now.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes

Puplet fails with me too, I have to use yum at the CLI.
I even forgot there is such a thing as puplet :-(

Upstream, reported back in January:

I believe you are not getting the answer you seek because you are not
asking the right question to the right people.

The right question is "Why is this option disabled as default in
*RHEL*?" The right people to ask this question is Red Hat.

I doubt the CentOS builders are arbitrarily changing this default
setting, but feel free to grab the upstream srpm and show me that I'm wrong.

Now days, if the machine is fairly decent, I just install windows in a
Virtual Machine.

I like Sun's Virtual Box on CentOS to run my Windows Hosts ... others
use different things like VMWare.

You can get virtual box here:

http://www.virtualbox.org/

The great thing about a VM is that you can use both the Windows machine
and the Linux machine at the same time.

The bad thing is that it can be slow if you do not have enough RAM or CPU.

I have a laptop with a Pentium M 2.2 GHz processor and 2 GB RAM and I
run a Windows XP VM with 512MB RAM on top if CentOS 5.

Johnny Hughes

You are absolutely correct.

The reason every config file is set the way it is is because that is the
way it is set in RHEL.

The whole point of CentOS is to produce a distribution that acts and
feels like the applicable upstream version.

[CentOS] System freezes completely under kernel 2.6.18-128.7.1.el5

2009-08-25 Thread Olaf Mueller
Hello,

is there a known problem with the new kernel for CentOS 5.3?

Till today, my server works without any problems. But after updating to
the new kernel 2.6.18-128.7.1.el5 the system freezes completely with no
more access by keyboard or over network. The last message
in /var/log/messages is 'Aug 25 14:07:41 weidenwinde kernel: hdg:
dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x21'.

I have not change my hardware, have not change configuration and till
this new kernel the system was running without any problems. The
harddisks are younger than a year.

Is someone else this seeing?

Olaf

not me, I've got the new kernel on about 6 machines, and my laptop with 
no problems. What is the prev kernel you were running ? There were some 
major changes in the early 5.3 days thats caued some issues on some AMD 
based cpu's - however, nothing of this nature. Most of the issues I've 
seen and know that exist revolve around the acpi changes and xen.

[CentOS] Terminal emulation and serial ports

2009-08-25 Thread Robert Moskowitz
I have to reinit a firewall that can only be done from its console port, 
and I do not have an XP system with Hyperterminal on it.

So I went through the archive and learned that minicom could do the job 
for me.  I installed it and went to configure it (minicom -s).  I can 
set the speeds, but the challenge is selecting the serial device.  I 
have a Serial-to-USB dongle, and when I connect it, the gnome hardware 
browser is showing a FIDI usb serial converter that was not there before 
connecting the dongle.  But what /dev/thingee do I put into the minicom 
configuration?

Netstat is calling port 8080 webcache, so tomcat is listening.  Have you

Of course first I tried dmesg, and had to go through lots of output 
until the last lines said it is indeed ttyUSB0.  Then I tried 'ls 
/dev/tty*' and there it was too.  So I am on my way (I hope)...

[CentOS] Thunderbird installed for python dependency?

2009-08-25 Thread Bowie Bailey
I was starting to run a yum update on one of my servers and noticed that
it wanted to install Thunderbird for some reason.  Running yum with the
'-v' option gave this output:

Why is it trying to get the python lib from Thunderbird when the Python
package is already installed?

I don't really want Thunderbird installed on a server.  Any suggestions?

Check dmesg, but for me it's usually /dev/ttyUSB0 when I use a
USB-to-serial adapter.

You'll have to look in /var/log/messages (or run dmesg) to see what HAL
/ the USB Hotplug deamons mapped it to (at least that is what I would
do). I know that a USB printer shows up as /dev/usb/lp.

Is SELinux running?  Have you checked /var/log/messages
or /var/log/audit/audit.log if you have it?  Is there anything in your
tomcat logs?  Do you get an error when you try to pull up the website?

this is the second time the system freezes completely with kernel

The harddisk is connected to the Promise Technolog IDE Controller as a

this controller as a master (ide 1).

Over month there were no problems with previous kernels. After updating
to kernel 2.6.18-128.7.1.el5 the systems freezes for two times within a
few hours. And since booting into the old kernel, everything seems good
so far. In my opinion this is a kernel bug.

Two notebooks and two desktops are waiting here for the new kernel
update. I will do that now. Maybe the error is reproducible on
different hardware.

while we investigate this - can you open an issue report at

Firefox (the Windows version at least) can import the CA certificate
just like IE.  It just takes more digging to find the tool.

- Go to Tools --> Options
- Select Advanced and then go to the Encryption tab
- Click on View Certificates
- Go to the Authorities tab
- Click the Import button

You might try a simple index.html under with some text in it before
trying your application just to make sure that tomcat is working.  We
use a custom tomcat setup so I am unsure of the defaults as it's
shipped, but there should be an access log somewhere as well.

Do a 'yum search tomcat' and note that there are several packages. If 
you want the admin site and sample webapps you have to install the

The difficulty with purchased certificates is timely revocation, 
since, as you note,

An in-house Certificate Authority can revoke, say, a locally issued 
OpenVPN certificate very quickly. If HR calls you aside for a quick 
and quiet meeting to halt all network access for Jane Employee, having 
the ability to revoke her certificate(s) by the time she's ushered 
from the building is nearly essential.

The same thing is true if a user's laptop is stolen. An employee 
called me early one Sunday morning to let me know that someone had 
broken into his house and stolen, among other things, his laptop. He 
had things encrypted, but it was still very reassuring to everyone 
that I was able to revoke his VPN cert within a few minutes.

 In brief:

 The bug I referenced is in the loader. It is built as part of anaconda, but
 the copy of it that runs at install time is in initrd.img. So, the procedure
 is to grab the latest anaconda srpm and the patch from bugzilla, build the
 rpms, extract the loader from anaconda-runtime, and replace the one in
 initrd.img. The latter can be done with the upd-initrd script from the
 anaconda srpm. You need to make sure that all the bits and pieces are
 built for the same arch.

 My error was that I assumed this bug was in the stage2 image because that's
 where I found anaconda.

 I was able to build the anaconda.i386, but not x86_64, which I needed.
 That's where mock came in handy, I used it with the srpm generated by
 the i386 build to create the x86_64 rpms.

[CentOS] unknown connection

2009-08-25 Thread Manuel Monteiro
Hello,

 

Today I updated one of our computers running CentOS 5.3 32bit. After a
reboot I notice the following with lsof -i

 

sshd  3638   root3u  IPv6  17317   TCP
pc46.astro.up.pt:ssh->119.1.193.205:zephyr-clt (ESTABLISHED)

sshd  3639   sshd3u  IPv6  17317   TCP
pc46.astro.up.pt:ssh->119.1.193.205:zephyr-clt (ESTABLISHED)

 

What is this connection?

 

IPtables is on and SELinux is on enforcing mode.

 

Thanks,

 

Manuel Monteiro

One of the really nifty tools (part of coreutils) is 'tail'.  The
output of dmesg (or the contents of /var/log/messages) is often large
(and generally of no interest to the task at hand) and very often the
info you want is in the last few lines (eg the blather generated by the
Hotplug code), so it is useful to do:

% dmesg|tail

OR

% tail /var/log/messages

to get this information.

Looks like an ssh connection from 119.1.193.205 port 2103 (defined as
"zephyr-clt" in /etc/services).

Fair enough, but the kmod-kvm rpms in the extras repo are for ancient
kernels.  There hasn't been a new package since Oct. 2008.

Actually, "yum clean metadata" seems to be enough. I'm making it now a 
habit to run it before an update.

Forgot that, in lsof, this is a connection from (and not *to*) 119.1.193.205

Or use 'less' for something a little more interactive:
dmesg |less
then you can use all the vi-style motion and search commands like
G - go to end
b - backwards page
?pattern  - search backwards
etc.

There is a version of yum in the testing repo that we are working with
that seems to fix many of these cache/spool issues.  The version is:

yum-3.2.22-20.el5.centos.noarch.rpm

Are these two installed?  Or do you want them?  If you are going to 
supply your own ROOT application you shouldn't need them, but if you 
want to see something by default or have web administration access you 
would.

Yes those are installed. I will need to have the administration site

 Do a 'yum search tomcat' and note that there are several packages. If

Have you installed anything else that might conflict or replace 
components?  Does 'java -version' show
java version "1.6.0"?
The default page should be what is at
/var/lib/tomcat5/webapps/ROOT/index.jsp.  Does that look normal?  Do you 
get something at http://localhost:8080/admin or 
http://localhost:8080/manager/html?

That's how I run Windows on everything except my laptop, which only
has 512 Meg of RAM. I first used VirtualBox on an openSUSE machine
with 768 Megs of RAM and a 1.5 Ghz Pentium 4 CPU. XP worked fine, but
I found out I could use a smaller virtual machine (and give it less
memory) if I used Windows 2000. And I really don't need XP for the few
programs I run in Windows. My CentOS desktop computer is a 2.8 Ghz
Pentium 4 with 1 Gig of RAM and Win2K runs great in it. I sure hope
Oracle doesn't mess up VirtualBox.

[r...@localhost ~]# java -version
java version "1.6.0"
OpenJDK  Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b09)
OpenJDK Client VM (build 1.6.0-b09, mixed mode)

I do have a /var/lib/tomcat5/webapps but it does not has the ROOT folder

drwxrwxr-x 2 root tomcat 4096 Jul 28 05:24 .
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root   4096 Aug 26 04:17 ..

Since there isn't a ROOT folder, I guess I cannot access to admin

I thought I was the only one who had the problem. My "solution" was to
run 'yum update' every day (or every other day). I figured I had
accidentally turned the service off when I was shutting down some of
the other services.

Hi Johnny and thank you for asking for feedback. I am in Cali,
Colombia, South America.
Our route to Brazil, for one of many examples, would be via Miami/Ft.
Lauderdale, Florida, USA.  So, for us, in Colombia, it is much better
to have a Mirror site in South Florida or the S.E. USA, if possible;
since I do not believe there is one in Colombia. The fact that
Colombia is adjacent to Panama, Brazil, Venezuela, etc., would make a
Mirror in one of those countries faster, *if* we had a direct route on
the Internet to them, but, we don't.  I suspect for most countries in
Latin America, this would be the same, since Latin America is so
strongly connected to Miami, "the capital" of Latin America.  Lanny

Though off-topic, I find this interesting.
Don't you in South America have some sort of high-speed network  
connecting the various universities there?

Don't you have peering-points somewhere?


Sorry for hijacking this thread...

Rainer: I don't think your reply is OT or hijacking. Good point. I
suspect that in the EU, there is a lot of peering between countries,
but here in SA, I don't think so. For one example, in our most
advanced neighboring country, Brazil, they speak a different language.
And, with 2 other neighboring countries (Venezuela and Ecuador) we
have very serious political problems, because of the friendship
Colombia has with the USA, the assistance those 2 countries give to
Colombian guerrilla groups,  etc.  OK, now this is getting political,
so it's getting way OT. :-)  Lanny

I suspected that.
To illustrate, this:
http://www.caida.org/research/topology/as_core_network/pics/ascore-ipv4-ipv6.200903_poster.pdf
is the map I was looking for.

Oh dear ;-)
This is what they call a "problem on ISO layer 9".

You can set this up to auto run with chkconfig & service.

chkconfig --level 35 yum on (to turn it on at boot)
service yum start (to start the service)

[CentOS] ath9k in CentOS 5

2009-08-25 Thread James Szinger
Hi,

I'm thinking about updating the wireless card on a CentOS 5.3 box.

The Wiki at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Laptops/Wireless says that
the "ath9k driver ships with CentOS", but I can't find it.  I've tried
modinfo, locate, yum search, and yum provides, but they all come up
empty.  Am I missing something, or is the Wiki need correcting?  I've
also searched the CentOS forums and others share my confusion.

Thanks,
Jim

[CentOS] ssl certificate, maximum protection, on the budget?

2009-08-25 Thread Dave
Hello,
I've got a client who wants to go ssl. He's running a web server,
smtp/pop, and ftps and imaps is coming as well. I'm looking for a wildcard
ssl certificate i believe it's called but one on the budget plan. I am also
wanting to ensure that the mod_ssl with httpd on the server is only using
the strongest encryption methods and protocols.
Thanks.

I'm afraid the ath9k part of the wiki page is in error.  The current
CentOS kernel does not have this driver.  You need a newer kernel as
seen in this forum post:

https://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?viewmode=thread&topic_id=20243&forum=40&post_id=76687

A solution at this moment is to use ndiswrapper and detailed
instructions were posted in the same thread:
