We are using Spacewalk to manage /etc/sysconfig/iptables files. The
files are version controlled with the integrated config management
tool. As SW does not (yet) support depended command execution, we are
using remote command execution through osad to reload iptables,
afterwards.

Testing could be done with Spacewalk's monitoring capabilities or
external tools.

I agree on that and it's the reason why I finally decided not to use fqdns.

[CentOS] Problem mounting CIFS shares with credential file after SAMBA update

2009-11-01 Thread José María Terry Jiménez
Hello all,

This morning i updated my CentOS (5.4) and that included:

samba-3.0.33-3.14.el5.i386.rpm
samba-client-3.0.33-3.14.el5.i386.rpm
samba-common-3.0.33-3.14.el5.i386.rpm
samba-swat-3.0.33-3.14.el5.i386.rpm

I have several mounts if fstab using a .credentials file that worked 
until i rebooted with this updates.

I remember time ago was an issue with the format of credentials file 
(something about a LF at the end or something else)

I've checked the file, added spaces between "=", added a line at the 
end, between username and passwd... but it doesn't work, i always get an 
error like (when i do mount -a):
mount error 13 = Permission denied
Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)

(this is repeated for every CIFS share mounted in fstab)

If i mount it "by hand" it works fine:
# mount -tcifs -ousername= //192.168.0.100/x /media/x
Password:

And then, if i do a mount -a then works! (until i reboot, of course)

# mount -a
#

Do anyone knows what is happening?

Best,
Jose Maria

I thought it was replaced by protectbase, and configured that instead.

Re: [CentOS] Problem mounting CIFS shares with credential file afterSAMBA update

2009-11-01 Thread Samuel Contesse
Hi,

I've the same problem on RHEL 5.4 after samba update. I almost tried  
everything but I had to switch to -username=...,-password=... to get  
CIFS mount point to work. I opened a case which has been closed  
because a second system also running on RHEL 5.4 works with this update.

Hope they will fix this issue...

[CentOS] Automatical resync of MD, why?

2009-11-01 Thread happymaster23
Hello,

I have three MDs on two HDDs in RAID 1. In last days, thanks to my
monitoring (which is installed longer time), I have recognized, that
one of these MDs is automatically started resync. First was at 25th
October and second resync of the same MD was today. It started in same
daytime (about 4:00 AM). Now is MD resynced and working well. Can
someone tell me what means this automatic resync? Is it standard? Is
it means some possible problems with one HDD (but other two MDs are
working without resync)?

Thank you

Re: [CentOS] Problem mounting CIFS shares with credential file afterSAMBA update

2009-11-01 Thread José María Terry Jiménez
Hello

I've just solved this (because i remembered what happened last time)

The problem is that the credentials file must be being parsed 
incorrectly and any char after the password is passed as part of 
password (don't know if you understand me because my poor english).

What i did is editing the .credentials file with an hex editor and 
deleting everything after the last character in the password.

I've used ghex (yum install ghex) (ghex2 /path/to/.credentials)

You'll find anything before the last password character (in my case was 
0A (represented as a dot (.) ) in the ascii panel. Then goto the Ascii 
view (the right) and delete that dot, the (0A in hex becomes 0).

That worked for me and this is being mounted on reboot without problems.

Tell here if this worked for you.

Best

So, what version is Spacewalk up to? When I installed it this past spring, it 
was version 0.4, and I upgraded to 0.5, which had just been released, the week 
before my contract ended the end of April.

*I* would *never* put something that was under 1.0 (actually, 1.0.1) into 
production.

At work, we're getting pressure to provide all kinds of info and control on 
what's on the servers and desktops (we're heavy tech - a lot of our users are 
on Linux), and he just brought up OCS Inventory. He said it took him about 5 
min (sounded more like half an hour, actually), and though there are a number 
of things - docs not great, and the translations leave something to be desired 
(it from the French), I'm impressed. It's a *lot* slicker, a lot more finished, 
and easier to install and configure, it seems, than Spacewalk, which took me 
*many* weeks to install, configure, and get working correctly.

OCS Inventory *looks* (I've only played with it for an hour or two) as though I 
can build scripts for it to run, to install, upgrade, etc, remote systems.

Perhaps he meant the thread beginning at 
http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2009-October/084836.html

My boot log looks like this:

[r...@mavis log]# pwd
/var/log
[r...@mavis log]# ls -l | grep boot
-rw--- 1 rootroot  0 Nov  1 04:02 boot.log
-rw--- 1 rootroot  0 Oct 25 04:02 boot.log.1

-rw--- 1 rootroot  0 Oct 11 04:02 boot.log.3
-rw--- 1 rootroot  0 Oct  4 04:02 boot.log.4
[r...@mavis log]# 

The zero length most like indicates that there are no entries :-;  yet 
we can see that the machine has been rebooted:

 [r...@mavis log]# grep boot messages*
messages.2:Oct 22 11:39:13 mavis shutdown[26207]: shutting down
for system reboot
messages.4:Oct  5 16:17:33 mavis shutdown[19739]: shutting down

for system reboot
messages.4:Oct 10 15:01:46 mavis shutdown[11680]: shutting down
for system reboot
[r...@mavis log]# 

Frankly, I can do very well without have boot.log at all but it seems 
that if we have it, it really should work!
Mounting an old CentOS-4 disk, we see that it worked in CentOS 4:

[r...@mavis log]# pwd
/old-sys/var/log
[r...@mavis log]# ls -l | grep boot
-rw--- 1 root  root 107353 May 21  2007 boot.log
-rw--- 1 root  root   8867 May 20  2007 boot.log.1
-rw--- 1 root  root  17265 May 13  2007 boot.log.2
-rw--- 1 root  root   2224 May  6  2007 boot.log.3
-rw--- 1 root  root105 Apr 29  2007 boot.log.4
[r...@mavis log]# 

It's interesting to note that my current /etc/syslog.conf  and the one 
in the older version both contain the entry:

  # Save boot messages also to boot.log
local7.*  /var/log/boot.log

Beyond ferreting out those details, I am LOST.

It is all there if you follow the thread.
Anyway, you agree with me that there is a bug or bugs in CentOS 5.4. As I
said earlier, it is not a critical matter, but it does not instill
confidence in me about CentOS distro. What other bugs are there? The
interesting thing, at least to me, is that there seems to be conspiratorial
silence about such bugs. Nobody wants to speak ill of their beloved distro?

You can workaround this by editing the credentials file and removing the 
tail LF with an hex editor as i posted early

Yes, I have seen it, thank you.  The patch offered in the bugzilla
deals with that issue.

The bug has to be fixed upstream, thus the above links. Something that
was done in the latest update broke the use of credential file which
was previously working fine.

I'm sure there are other bugs.  I'm equally sure there's no "conspiracy 
of silence" here, though.  I guess the bug tracker would no longer exist

Going a bit further, the empty boot.log is listed in RedHat's bugzilla 
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=boot.log) as bug # 
529221 and 489838

The only reason I'm interested in it is that the nuances in syslog.conf 
still haven't penetrated my thick skull.

Thank you for having found some other sources to say it is a bug.
Having used Fedora 8 and 10 for a long time and Fedora 11 for a few months
and never experienced this in these distros, I can say this bug occurs only
in old versions of Red Had distros like CentOS.  Now that I know this is a
bug, I will move on hoping that others will solve the problem

The problem with zero-length boot.log has existed in RHEL releases since
2007, and Red Hat has shown little interest in fixing it.  You won't
find an official fix from CentOS because CentOS strives to be bug-for-
bug compatible with the corresponding RHEL release.  Fedora, beginning
with release 10, has made major changes to the boot sequence, and does
write to boot.log.  My guess is that you might see these changes show up
in RHEL/CentOS 6.  (RHEL 5 is based on Fedora Core 6.)

The data recorded in boot.log is typically not very interesting, so it's
not likely you'll see a fix in RHEL 5.  If you search on Google you can
find some additions you can make in /etc/init.d/functions to record what
init scripts were started.  The only thing missing (from what I see in
a Fedora 11 boot.log) would be the "OK" or "FAIL" status reports, but
those can generally be inferred from what services started successfully.

[CentOS] DoveCot and Postfix Setup? or Zimbra?

2009-11-01 Thread ML
Hi All,

I have not really setup e-mail serving on Linux before by myself. I have a 
setup now where it was setup for me running Dovecot and postfix. The setup 
works. I want to set this up again on my own system.

Does anyone have a good tutorial?

Zimbra...does it replace dovecot and postfx setup?

Best,

Hello ML,

I think 
http://howtoforge.com/isp-mailserver-with-virtual-users-domains-postfix-dovecot-mysql-centos5.0
is what you're looking for. I suggest you use phpMyAdmin from epel.
Here you can find how to add epel to your yum repository:

Zimbra is a Microsoft Exchange Server compatible groupware server, for 
use with Microsoft Outlook in enterprise mode, with features like 
calendar scheduling, shared mail folders, groupware applications 
development, etc. 

If you want a conventional POP/IMAP mail server, dovecot (or cyrus) and 
postfix (or sendmail) is just fine.


since you didn't state what your parameters are (is this for a few 
users, or for 100s/1000s, etc), its pretty hard to make recommendations.

Re: [CentOS] loading a program in memory for faster startup

2009-11-01 Thread Jerry Geis
>  more /etc/readahead.d/impress.later
> /usr/bin/soffice
> /opt/openoffice.org3/program/soffice.bin
I created the above file /etc/readahead.d/impress.later
Put in it the two lines above. The /etc/init.d/readahead_later script 
takes any
file name *.later so I made a new file instead of editing 
/etc/readahead.d/default.later

I did service readahead_later restart

I then started impress a couple times and it still takes a LONG time
to startup. I was "hoping" it would be cached in memory and start right up.

I can find anything in dmesg or /var/log/messages that says any error 
for readahead
or that anything is happening.

How do I know the server is or is not doing anything for me? As I 
mentioned I
did not notice any difference in application load time.

Thanks,

Jerry

It compiles shell scripts which are simply copied and launched. From the
FAQ:

--
1) you can simply copy it to the firewall machine and then run it by
hand; 2) you can use built-in installer and 3) you can use a shell
script to copy this file to where it should be and then run it. Built-in
installer uses ssh to communicate with the firewall,
--

You could propably also simply commit the compiled rules to some
repository and have puppet ship/execute the files.
One thing i really liked about fwbuilder is that you have a central
object pool for custom ports, ip addresses and networks which you can
use in different firewall rulesets so if something updates you simply
recomplile/distribute all firewall rules.

Yes, it does.  I *think* it's possible to change the ports that Zimbra
listens on, but
by default it will install it's on mta, pop, and imap servers, and
installs them into
it's own directory.

[CentOS] CentOS Mirrored On RapidShare [Links Here]

2009-11-01 Thread James Bensley
Hey List,

Firstly I am sorry for the length of this email and that you are all
having too receive it but the point is that this email will now go
into the archive and be indexed by Google (hopefully) and thusly,
people will be able to find these links through Google. My goal is to
mirror CentOS on RapidShare. "Why you fool there are loads of
mirrors?" you might ask; simply for convenience. For those of you that
like me are premium account holders with RapidShare, if you need to
acquire a copy of CentOS and you have access to a high speed
connection, for premium account holders RapidShare can deliver up
100Mbps download speeds.

You don't have to reply to this post, my plan is to simply continue to
mirror CentOS and continually post here my mirrors to keep the archive
updated. Anyway, enough of my ramblings, lets get down to business ;)

Could you show us the output returned by:

uname -mr
ls -l `find /lib/modules -name ntfs.ko`
ls -l `find /lib/modules -name fuse.ko`

Just want to point out that there are centos mirrors that deliver > 
700mbps fairly regularly, and there are ( specially if you are on I2 ) 
mirrors that do a gigabit as well.

As a second point of reference the CentOS-5.4/DVD/x86_64 torrent is 
currently seeding at > 390MB/sec. I dont know how much faster, since the 
machine I can test on cant handle more than that on i/o ( only has 6

Something is wrong here.  You are missing
/lib/modules/2.6.18-128.el5/extra/ntfs/ntfs.ko that the symlinks are
pointing to.  Are those symlinks red-blinking?

It's there.  I must have missed it with my cut-and-paste before.

( Side note:  I can't stand all that color-coding with the "ls" command,
so I disable it.  That's just my prejudice from growing up with UNIX in
the '80s and '90s on REAL monochrome terminals. ;)

[CentOS] connection refused resolving - after 5.4 upgrade

2009-11-01 Thread Rob Kampen

Hi all,
prior to 5.4 upgrade, my two DNS servers would only get
'connection refused resolving .'
on rare infrequent occasions (once or twice a month)
after upgrade to 5.4 I get 500+ per day.
Google has suggestions for
|logging
  category lame-servers null; ;
;

|however this strikes me as severe overkill as it will mask genuine 
problems.

Anyone else noticed this?
Suggestions as to why or what is causing?
Thanks
Rob

I fully understand (similar generation?!).

Alright. Then as far as installation of the modules are concerned,
there does not seem to be a problem.  So, just for a confirmation,
'modprobe ntfs' and 'modprobe fuse' run without any errors and lsmod
shows both modules loaded?

If ntfs-3g is working for you, I would expect the ntfs module from
kmod-ntfs works, too.  However, they are not the same.  The latter was
built from the ntfs code in CentOS 5.3 (which was originally broken).
I believe it worked after a patch was applied and this was tested by
CentOS QA members.

Seems to work.  Both "modprobe" commands run with no error, and lsmod
shows this:

lsmod | egrep 'fuse|ntfs'
fuse   49237  0 
ntfs  196760  0

That's what I thought.  However, when I mount a partition created with
Windoze 2000, I can read files and directories, but not create or modify
anything.  Here's the actual scenario ( all commands performed as root):

# dmesg | tail

Looks like you are doing everything just fine.  Perhaps, we should
move this conversation to the ELRepo mailing list because this is now
all about kmod-ntfs and not all members of the ELRepo team are reading
this mailing list on a regular basis.

[CentOS] Bug in freeradius 1.1.3-1.5.el5_4 rpm

2009-11-01 Thread Ian Forde
I upgraded one of my servers to CentOS 5.4 today.  The freeradius
service (radiusd) didn't start up due to permissions errors.  I tracked
it to the permissions on the /etc/raddb/certs/ directory being set to
640 rather than 750, so the radius user couldn't enter the directory.
In the spec file from the source rpm, line 200 should read:

%attr(750,root,radiusd) %config (noreplace) /etc/raddb/certs

rather than the current:

%attr(640,root,radiusd) %config (noreplace) /etc/raddb/certs

Note that this bug also exists in the the 1.1.3-1.4.el5 version that's
part of the CentOS 5.4 release.  I'm not sure if it exists upstream
though, but there it is... ;)

I use rsync to do backups, which automatically works over a ssh connection.

Did you mean you want to run something yourself remotely to collect and store 
backups or do you want a service?  For the former case, look at backuppc 
(http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/ or the package in epel).  It can use rsync 
over ssh to collect the backups and uses compression and links duplicates to 
increase the history you can keep online.

Your postmaster address apparently does not exist at all as required by RFC
2821.

Your neil and webmaster addresses reject mail from sasktel.net (the
largest ISP in Saskatchewan, Canada), my own mailserver
(melvilletheatre.com), and gmail.com.

Your mailserver definitely needs some attention and repair.

If you're in charge of it, please fix it.  If you are not in charge of it, then
bring this message to the attention of your system administrator and ask him to
deal with it.

An individual email from me is probably not that important but you're likely
losing a lot of stuff that you really do want to be able to receive with
everything blocked like that.  And again, your mailserver is also in violation
of RFC 2821.

Re: [CentOS] Automatical resync of MD, why?

2009-11-01 Thread Oliver Ransom
When you cat /proc/mdstat does it actually say "syncing" or does it  
say "checking"? I believe a newer version of mdadm creates a weekly  
cron job to check the arrays. I first mistakenly assumed it was  
resyncing and started worrying since it was doing all 8 of my RAID1  
arrays at once, but after looking twice I saw it was actually just  
checking the arrays thanks to a new cronjob.

Regards,
Oliver
