[CentOS] [OT] DevOps Days 2010 - call for papers.

2010-08-24 Thread Stephen Nelson-Smith
Hello all,

I would like to draw your attention to a most excellent conference
coming up in October, of which I am one of the organisers.

The conference is the second European Devopsdays, and is in Hamburg on
the 15th and 16th of October.  It's a conference for anyone interested
in both sysadmin and development activities, and in bridging the gap
between the two disciplines.

We're currently accepting talk proposals - please a brief abstract and
a briefer high level description to proposals-eu-2...@devopsdays.org

You can find out more about the conference at
http://www.devopsdays.org/ and have a look at previous conferences and
talks to get a sense of whether you think this would appeal to you!

Of course, we also want people to come, so feel free to sign up at
http://www.devopsdays.org/2010-europe/registration/

Thanks!

S.

since these packages are very old, what about the security of these
files? For example there are codecs for QiuckTime included, are
these files not affected by security bugs of the original
software?

I have asked a similar question about the mplayerplug-in package
in the rpmforge mailing list but unfortunately get no answer.
The current QuickTime is at version 7.6.7 while the
QuickTime-Plugin of mplayerplug-in is at version 7.4.5.

At this moment I took the decision to uninstall all these codecs and
plugins.

What he means is create a custom attribute in DS to hold geometry then write a 
shell script that does an ldapsearch to get that attribute for the logged in 
user and either set that as an environment variable that VNC uses upon login or 
use the shell script to launch VNC with that geometry if it doesn't support 
environment variables for setting geometry.

[CentOS] Booting CentOS 5.5 (KVM) from a second disk

2010-08-24 Thread Daniel Bareiro
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi all!

Doing some tests with CentOS 5.5 on a KVM virtual machine, after doing
the installation, I added a second disk. But when trying to boot from
it, I get the following error:

- -
root (hd1,0)

Error 21: Selected disk does not exist
- -


The two disks are Virtio devices that are recognized when booting from
the first disk:

- -
[r...@localhost ~]# fdisk -l /dev/vda

Disco /dev/vda: 10.7 GB, 10737418240 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 1305 cylinders
Unidades = cilindros de 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Disposit. InicioComienzo  Fin  Bloques  Id  Sistema

Disco /dev/vdb: 10.7 GB, 10737418240 bytes

/dev/vdb211751305 1052257+  fd  Linux raid autodetect
- -

The idea of these tests is to set up software RAID1 on a running system,
since, as I said in another thread, it seems that Anaconda does not
support installation on degraded RAID.

But I'm not sure if this is a problem of Virtio or that GRUB is not
recognizing the second disk.

I made sure to modify /boot/grub/device.map with the entry for the new
disk:

- -
[r...@localhost grub]# cat /boot/grub/device.map
# this device map was generated by anaconda
(hd0) /dev/vda
(hd1) /dev/vdb
- -

And the reconfiguration of GRUB on both disks did not give problems:

- -
[r...@localhost grub]# grub --device-map=/boot/grub/device.map


GNU GRUB  version 0.97  (640K lower / 3072K upper memory)

[CentOS] PAM_shield locking me out?

2010-08-24 Thread Rob Kampen
Yesterday I installed pam_shield and followed the testing suggested and 
thought all was well.
today I find that I cannot get to my email account, I can login via ssh 
okay (uses keys) but su and sudo give

segmentation faults. I am guessing due to the pam module causing a problem.
As I cannot do remote login as root and sudo and su use pam I appear to 
have locked myself out.

Any words of wisdom from those a little more knowledgeable?
Why do I keep trying new things - I like to improve my system and harden 
it against constant script kiddies (many different triers per day), but 
despite reading all the instructions I fall into a hole I cannot climb 
out of.

Hopefully someone has an idea
BTW - the console also fails to allow login
TIA Rob

You'll need to boot into Single User Mode and undo or just check your pam
configuration:

From:
http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/Installation_Guide-en-US/s1-rescuemode-booting-single.html

At the GRUB splash screen at boot time, press any key to enter the GRUB
interactive menu.

Select Red Hat Enterprise Linux with the version of the kernel that you
wish to boot and type a to append the line.

Go to the end of the line and type single as a separate word (press the
Spacebar and then type single). Press Enter to exit edit mode.

[CentOS] OT: redhat training and RHES6

2010-08-24 Thread Monty Shinn
Greetings.

I am planning on getting my RHCE in the near future.  I thinking I 
should wait until 6 comes out before proceeding.  That being said, I 
don't want to wait past the end of this year.

That being said, do you all have any information about how long it takes 
for their training platform to catch up to their release?  Which is to 
say, if RHES 6 is released on day 1, at what point will they start 
training on RHES6?

I'm asking here instead of RH since I want real-world answers, not the 
company line.  Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.

TIA,

Monty

That doesn't really help him...

I'm in a similar situation but I think we just have to wait on further
information...

The week long crash course + test on the RH site currently mentions Xen...
given that is dead now from RH perspective it def seems better to wait for
now.

I was in the same dilemma before applying for RHCE exam back in May.
Now, accoring to my RHCI and RHCX (Instructor and Examiner), it'll take 
at least a year for all RH trainings and exams to get preoriented to new 
major release after RHEL 6 sees light of day.

No my server is 32 bit and I think there were no seg faults in
actuality 
- the pam_shield module was causing a ?? response to su and sudo auth
requests and they reported segmentation error - nothing in the logs - I
assume that it had somehow locked my account and thus all auth requests
to pam were being dumped. It also appeared to do the same to the login
prompt on the console - any user entered just went back to the the
login prompt no request for the password,
I have thus commented out the auth line I added yesterday until I work
out what went wrong.
I am wondering if I entered the auth line in the wrong place??
Anyone know where it should go?
The instructions from the INSTALL file in the tar.gz that I used was
not centos / rh specific.

A pam_shield-related login failure happened to me once and fixing
system-auth cured it.

It happened too long ago to remember the details, but I think the
failure was on centos 4. The thing that sticks in my mind was the
inability of any user to login from a console.

Here are the examples you requested.


Centos 4 example (64-bit):

# cat /etc/pam.d/system-auth
...
auth  required/lib/security/$ISA/pam_env.so
auth  sufficient  /lib/security/$ISA/pam_unix.so likeauth nullok
#
auth  optional/lib64/security/pam_shield.so
#
auth  required/lib/security/$ISA/pam_deny.so
...


Centos 5 example:

# cat /etc/pam.d/system-auth
...
auth  requiredpam_env.so
auth  sufficient  pam_unix.so nullok try_first_pass
#
auth  optionalpam_shield.so
#
auth  requisite   pam_succeed_if.so uid >= 500 quiet
auth  requiredpam_deny.so
...


rhel6-beta2 example:

[CentOS] CENTOS DHCP Server and windows computer/host name ISSUE

2010-08-24 Thread linux-crazy
Hi list,

We are running few Centos5.4 and windows 2003 instance  on CENTOS XEN
virtualized environment , all the guest are getting the IP/NETWORK/GATEWAY
setting from the DHCP Server running on CENTOS 5 server and the DNS
configured on the  windows 2003 server.

  All of the CENTOS Guests are getting the IP and  the host name as per the
DNS forward look up configured. For example  If the CENTOS  guest1 get
x.y.z.1 as an IP and it gets the host name as machine1.example.com  and so
on .


But none of the windows guest is getting the hostname or computer name from
the DHCP server even though its getting the ip from the centos DHCP server
properly ,  instead all the windows guest are   setting up the hostname or
computername as  ORGNAME-withsomenumbers . eg: techsoft-342156 as a computer
name .

See at present we are not doing any static mapping of IP/HOSTNAME  based on
windows GUEST MAC address. So statically mapping the hostname/ip with guest
MAC address is out of question  now.


Is there is any configuration to be tuned on dhcpd.conf or any  files or
parameter to be tuned on windows 2003 guests to get the hostname from the
DHCP/DNS . i heard about some option like "*dhcpd  opt 12*" on windows
regisrty level will do the job , But am blank how to get things done .




Also is there is a way to tune CENTOS DHCP Server to lease the ip to the
dhcp client in uniform order rather it leases randomly .


 If any one throws me some light on how to get this done  it will be really
great full for me .

Regards,
Lingu

I use mac address reservations in the /etc/dhcpd.conf file, like so:

host linsrv {

The way that I always do it is:

host foobar {
hardware ethernet xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx;
fixed-address hostname.domain.org;
}

and rely on the DNS to supply the fixed IP address. This works for Linux, 
Windows XP, Vista and 7, and OS X.

[CentOS] Best location in filesystem to have a samba share

2010-08-24 Thread David McGuffey
Everyone in the family has a digital camera or cell phone and they seem
to be leaving picture files all over their home folders, and laptops
with no sense of year/month/day taken or what they are about.

Looking to consolidate all the family pics in one location on a samba
share on the primary workstation that happens to have 2TB of mirrored
storage.

This is all behind a firewall that blocks smb protocols in and out, and
the iptables on the primary workstation will be set to only allow smb
to/from specific family laptops.

I have read the manuals...so I know one can get samba and selinux to
dance together.

But...I don't really want to set a boolean so that all the /home folders
can be shared.  Would rather create a separate folder and give it the
correct selinux context, but there is a warning to be careful to not use
a "system folder" because they already have the proper selinux contexts.

So...if one were to create a new folder and share it out via samba,
where would be the best location to create it so as to not conflict with
the selinux contexts of the distro?  

/usr/share?  /usr/local/share? /usr/mnt?  somewhere in /var? or
somewhere else?
