[CentOS] Text file manipulation in CentOS?

[hadi motamedi]

Dear All
>From my previous posts , I learned from you to make use of 'sort' , 'grep' ,
and 'grep -v' to manipulate text files . At now, I have generated a large
text file from my autoexpect script. To be more specific, I need to find how
many distinct records are there in say column#1? How can I filter out the
distinct records with number of occurances less than a pre-determined
threshold?Can you please show my the power of CentOS in manipulating text
files?
Thank you

awk '{print $1}' filename | sort -u | wc -l

This will show how many unique entries are present in column one (use awk -F to 
change delimiter e.g awk -F ":" for : delimiter)

I don't quite understand this part.

awk '{print $1}' filename | sort | uniq -c | sort -rn

Will give you a number of occurrences (reverse numerically sorted) of uniq data 
from column one. 

Now I think you want to put that through a loop and only show those that are 
less than threshold?

Thanks

 The problem is at least one of the packagers for clamd/amavisd-new

 It is easily fixed by resetting the path - but you do have to watch out

Hello Ned,

Thank you for the links, and all the work you put in!

I also obtained Oreilly's Definitive Guide to Postfix, for some extra

Oh, that's because uniq thinks that two lines are different if your
characters TK,CL... and the rest of the line are different. If you
want to count lines only by the number following CallId you should
tell uniq to compare only the first characters in the line:

$ cat hadi | sort | uniq -c -w 9 | sort -n | perl -ne 'print unless
/(\d+)/ and $1 < 3'
  4 CallId 91  State TK Bts 5  Bt 1  Tr (4 0x0f)  E1 (4 0
18)  Tru (0 1 1)
  7 CallId 92  State CL Bts 7  Bt 1  Tr (6 0x0a)  E1 (3 1
22)  Tru (0 0 0)
  7 CallId 94  State TK Bts 7  Bt 1  Tr (6 0x0f)  E1 (7 0
15)  Tru (0 0 2)
  7 CallId  9  State TK Bts 7  Bt 2  Tr (13 0x09)  E1 (4 1
5)  Tru (0 3 0)

(note -w 9).

Funny, this morning I came to the same conclusion after some googling. A 
xen box with two bridges should be considered normal, and it should not 
break anything inside or outside the box.

There are good instructions on the net for installing 2 virtual bridges 
on a xen box. But I have found no mention of this specific dual-bridge 
problem I have: that ip traffic goes in ok through any physical nic to 
the dom0 or domUs, but all replies are routed to only one nic (the 
default gateway). (I verified this with tcpdump.)

I am going to try this first without Shorewall (simpler, I hope).

John, could you elaborate a little on this (I never had to adjust 
routing before):

Where should I put that script? network-scripts/ifup-post?
What would your "table 200" look like, and where should I put that?

That's not xen or bridge related.  Unless you do policy-based routing, packets 
always follow the destination route regardless of where the input was received. 
  That's a feature, not a bug.

I used Firestarter for a while a few years ago.  After less than a year
I migrated to the Shoreline Firewall ( Shorewall ) for a couple of
reasons.

First is that Firestarter is limited in what it will allow you to do
with your firewall configuration.  Shorewall is much more powerful and
flexible.

Second, the last time I looked, Firestarter was not being actively
maintained.  As I recall, the latest version of Firestarter is about 3
years old, and the mailing list and forums show very little traffic.  By
comparison, Shorewall is much more active -- both in
maintenance/enhancement and the mailing list.

This is just my opinion, and as always, YMMV.

Ok. But this error does not occur on my other CentOS 5 box (mailserver, 
non-xen) which also has 2 nics for 2 public ip segments. There input-nic 
is always = outputnic. And I have done nothing special to achieve this 
(pure "linux magic"). That's why I "blame" bridges - they are the most 
notable difference between these two machines.

I had to something on the same line at a client.  On Mac OS X (10.5)
workstation, users were complaining that "network files"  (NFS export
from Linux file server) were visible in the "finder" but on clicking
it would not open.   I asked them to open a terminal with a couple of
tabs and showed them how to use "cd" to the paths that had the NFS
mounts.  The problem went away.

How would this fix the problem though? I'm asking cause I sit with the same
problem, and haven't figured out yet to tell a remote server what todo if
the NFS server is unavailable (be it network problems, maintenance,
incorrect password, etc)

It doesn't fix it -- it's an ugly workaround -- but it works to keep
them mounted.  I don't know of an elegant solution if the NFS server
goes away.  I've seen it hang the clients until they timeout.  Maybe
an NFS expert on the list will be able to provide a better solution.

[CentOS] clients obtaining dhcp addys slowly

[aurfalien]

Hi all,

This is unusual for me to observe.

I've a dhcp server running on Centos 5.3 and it takes a while to  
answer clients asking for an address.

This is playing some havoc with certain scripts at startup not fully  
working because of the address delay.

I've even used a dhcp helper address type function in my Juniper  
router but nothing has changed.

Any ideas?

I did a cron on a client who is also an OSX 10.5 server and then  
killed the NFS server that it had automounted.

No hangs on the client but I haven't tested this on my Centos clients  
yet which is actually my main concern.

I was actually surprised that OSX behaved for once.

That's odd.  Is there any output on that host from "ip rule show"?  What 
about:

# ip rule show
# ip rule show | awk '{print $NF}' | sort | uniq | \
   while read table ; do echo ; echo "  $table" ;

That doesn't make much (any?) sense.  IP traffic is always 
destination-routed unless you do something unusual.  On the other hand, 
even if you send out to the 'wrong' internet gateway following your 
default route, any internet connection should be able to deliver to any 
internet destination.  Asymmetrical routing is both permitted and 
normal, although not necessarily desirable and it may not make it 
through stateful firewalls.

Funny you mention that, i was just about to disable that.

Just a note, the only thing thats changed is my switch, I was using a  
Foundry and everything ran fine, now I'm using some POS DLINK (it  
actually ran some poor fool $1,400).

I don't really have a choice with the DLINK for now had to invest $

Interesting commands, and revealing, it seems to me.

Here's the results, first from a "healthy" (non-xen) host ("ordinary"

If I understand correctly, you can pipe your output to: `awk '{a=$1} {if
(a > 3)   print a}''. `a' is awk variable. `$1' is first column of awk
input so you probably need to change it.

not an expert, only a user who has been singed a few times.
in the options for the mount I suggest: hard,intr

hard because soft has had some data loss issues for me.
intr because sometimes you need to be able to interrupt a process while a 
server is down (say to be
able to reboot the client box).


BTW, keeping the mount point busy pretty much invalidates the use of autofs IAW 
the OP, i.e., the
only benefit that you get from autofs at this point is that if the server is 
down at client boot
then the client will be able to finish booting (which could have been 
accomplished by using the bg
flag in the fstab (man 5 nfs)).
The OP wrote:
"2) utilize the benefits of autofs so that when an NFS resource becomes
unavailable, the system doesn't hang."


If the file system IS mounted, then the system will hang until you can 
interrupt processes (why you
need the intr option).
If the file system is not needed then it should be unmounted so it can't hang 
the client.

A less drastic option for autocompletion issues would be to set a longer 
timeout, i.e., in
auto.master change the line
from:
/misc  /etc/auto.misc
to:
/misc  /etc/auto.misc --timeout=3600
to get an hour between disuse and unmount (the default is 600 (man 
auto.master)).



If you really want permanent mounts, then I suggest going back to using fstab 
with the bg & intr
options and ignore autofs, because it appears autofs only causes trouble for 
you.

If you want the benefits of autofs (no hung mounts if not mounted during server 
interruptions, less
net traffic/connections when clients don't need remote file systems), you might 
be better served by
using a longer timeout and re-reading James Pearson's email.


BTW what applications are you having autocompletion issues with?  I have been 
using autofs for ~15
years and have only had issues with soft mounting causing data corruption.

[CentOS] ldconfig: /usr/lib64/libfreebl3.so is not a symbolic link

I have been getting the following error when trying to run ldconfig:

ldconfig: /usr/lib64/libfreebl3.so is not a symbolic link


# ll /usr/lib64/libfreebl3.so

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 312336 Mar 28 11:13 /usr/lib64/libfreebl3.so


I've used "yum whatprovides /usr/lib64/libfreeb13.so" to determine that this
file belongs to nss. I have tried to reinstall nss but that does not fix the
problem.

Any ideas? How can I fix this?

My critical servers are autofs and don't slam the nfs server.

However my clients do peg it so you are right.

Command line tab completion and a custom 3D script.

I think I'll do KISS on this one and just use fstab was I've been  
doing with bg, hard, intr.

According to `yum deplist glibc-2.5-42.el5_4.3.x86_64' you may also try
with reinstalling `libgcc' and `glibc-common'.

Well, there you go.  Something set up policy routing on the working 
host.  Do you have any files like /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-* 
or /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/rule-* ?

Re: [CentOS] ldconfig: /usr/lib64/libfreebl3.so is not a symbolic link

[a arias]

Zyla, that did not work either.

I was able to work around this by doing the following:

mv /usr/lib64/libfreebl3.so /usr/lib64/libfreebl3.so.0.1; ln -snf
/usr/lib64/libfreebl3.so.0.1 /usr/lib64/libfreel3.so


I wonder if I am the only one who is experiencing this. What could have
caused this?

Thanks,

Thank you for your reply. To just have one 'State' for the CallId , I
created one new logfile as the following:
#more logfile1 | grep "State TK" >> logfile2
Then in the logfile2 , I tried to count the number of occurances of each
distinct CallId with the aid of your proposed command . But in the output, I
see differences between the number obtained from counting them manually with
the one generated from your command. Can you please correct me?

I'm likely to get in trouble for this, but frankly I don't
really care.

This list doesn't exist to do *your* job for you.  We are
not here to do *your* work.  In the past few months you've
done nothing but use the members of this list as your personal
"please come do my job for me" group because you choose not to
do any research or learning on your own.  While members of the
list are quite happy to help people, you're taking advantage of
their kindness and patience.  Why should you be paid or earn
class credit based on our expertise?  It is not clear whether
you are a paid IT person, consultant or just a student learning
about the IT field.  But it is also not relevant, as you are
just depending on us to do your work.

There are a bazillion resources on the web, starting with google,
that will help you learn *basic* shell scripting as is needed
to solve your most current issue.  There exist *many* excellent
books on shell scripting; there is also "man bash"; "man awk";
"man cut"; "man sed"; etc.  READ THEM.

Have you taken the time to make use of any of these resources?
Have you decided to resort to this list every time something
basic is needed that you refuse to take the time to learn so
you are able to put together solutions yourself?

DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH ONCE IN A WHILE.

You might be amazed at what you can learn when you do so.

At some point you *will* be in a position where you have a task
that needs to be done and you will not have this list to fall
back on.  What are you going to do then?  Cry to your boss or your
professor that you can't do it because all the people that have
been doing your work for you up to that point aren't available?

If you were working for me I'd terminate you for not making
any effort on your own.  If you were a student of mine I would
fail you for not expending any effort at learning the material.
If you were a consultant I'd make sure you never worked for any
company I was a part of and also blacklist you on top of it.

Really, enough is just enough.

Enough is also enough with the spoon-feeding.  I realize that most
of you are kindhearted souls that delight in helping people and
that is, in most cases, to be commended.  But this never-ending
spoon-feeding doing Hadi's job for him is not helping him in
the least.  Make him stand on his own two feet for a change.
It is *obvious* he has made no attempt at resolving the problems
he has brought to this list on his own and it has been obvious
since his first post.  And yes, I know, we all started somewhere,
blah, blah, blah.  While this is indeed true it is *also* true
that we spent the time to learn what we needed in order to do
our jobs, including the most important of all: how to find the
information we need which in this day and age is google or some
other search engine.

(http://stuff.gerdesas.com/images/spoon.png)

To any on the list *other* than Hadi that I've offended by this
post you have my most sincere apologies.  Sorry for wasting your
time but this has been building up for a long time.

I tried to change the configuration of a compatible sata in bios to AHCI, but

I do not have a smart array controller. I do this AHCI features need smart

First of all it should report /dev/sda and not /dev/hda

It is a horrible speed for modern disks.


Modern SATA disks show around 50-80 MB/Sec

I am sure ide0noprobe=no (or zero -- check docs) in the kernel mline
will surely speed up in addition to other suggestions will
dramatically speed up.



As will setting the operation mode in mode in BIOS from compatible to

None. But I found these (standard CentOS files):

[CentOS] Adding Repositories and using yum to download packages

[Jatin Davey]

Hi

I am using CentOS 5.3 and after installing the OS i scrolled to the 
/etc/yum.repos.d directory and i could not find any repositories being 
present there. So i googled a bit on adding the repositories and found 
the link:

http://www.osresources.com/index.php?action=artikel&cat=11&id=6&artlang=en

then when i try to install the net-snmp package that i require to 
monitor my box i get the following error:

[r...@sc-devld-1 etc]# yum install net-snmp
Loading "rhnplugin" plugin
Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Repository base is listed more than once in the configuration
Repository contrib is listed more than once in the configuration
Repository centosplus is listed more than once in the configuration
Repository addons is listed more than once in the configuration
Repository extras is listed more than once in the configuration
This system is not registered with RHN.
RHN support will be disabled.
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories
not using ftp, http[s], or file for repos, skipping - 5Client is not a 
valid release or hasnt been released yet
Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: update

Please let me know what needs to be done.

Thanks

I follwed the link that you have given but in it the explanation is 
given assuming that the Base repo is already present in the 
/etc/yum.repos.d directory but in my box i dont have any files in the 
/etc/yum.repos.d directory.

So how do i add these basic needed repositories. In all my other boxes i 
do have it in the yum/repos.d directory. Please guide me in this regard.

Thanks

You are running some VPS-incarnation of CentOS, aren't you?

Try the following link and follow the applicable steps:
