This point has already been answered on this mailing list (and elsewhere). A bit of search in the archives and elsewhere would quickly bring you this: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Skype Because Skype is 32-bit, the idea is to install it from the official binary archive, and use yum to install few 32-bit libraries (yes, this means that some libraries will be in 32-bit and 64-bit on your system, not a problem). Sound and video work like a charm, skype+msn support.

CentOS 6.3 comes with Openswan which allows you to setup IPsec connections. More info on the Openswan website: https://www.openswan.org/projects/openswan/ There is also Libreswan which is a recent fork of Openswan. Current release is 3.0 and it has a long list of fixes over the latest Openswan release (2.6.38) so might be interesting to look at too: http://www.libreswan.org For L2TP there is xl2tpd: https://github.com/xelerance/xl2tpd which iirc is available from the EPEL repo.

[CentOS] Dell unofficial community repository - what do you think?
Hi all. I am currently gathering information about firmware update on Dell PowerEdge machines. I've found http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Firmware-tools_announcement and https://linux.dell.com/repo/community/ It is an unofficial, community supported repository. What are your experiences: should I perform firmware updates the traditional way by downloading *.bin packages from Dell and run them manually or should I use this repo? Is this repo "safe" and releases stable packages? Best regards, Rafal Radecki. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Personally, I prefer the repo over both .bin packages and Lifecycle controller updates. However, there are sometimes problems with the repo, in particular after new releases. The mailing list is the canonical place for reporting, and it is monitored by Dell employees. The best possible scenario is a local mirror of the repository, but I haven't yet figured out how to configure machines to use it; not sure whether yum or httpd config is the problem. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

They provide an official repo for the proliant support pack (PSP), but I don't think they offer firmware updates via yum.

Re: [CentOS] Dell unofficial community repository - what do you think?
This is correct, the latest firmware updates take a little bit to get packaged and tested before they get pushed to the repo. I also haven't figured out how to only update firmware for specific devices. With the inventory_firmware and update_firmware commands, it looks for updates and applies all updates at once. As for creating a local mirror, a simple rsync grabs it (I exclude everything I don't need) rsync --progress --delete -avHz --exclude=rh30 --exclude=rh30_64 --exclude=rh40 --exclude=rh40_64 --exclude='SLES_*' --exclude='SLE_*' --exclude='suse*' --exclude='sles*' linux.dell.com::repo/hardware/OMSA_7.1/ /yumrepo/repos/dell/hardware/OMSA_7.1/ I also don't use the community repo...I haven't found anything I need in there. I'll attach the yum repo file I use for my local repo. A 'yum install srvadmin-all dell_ft_install' will grab what you need for firmware tools and OpenManage, and then a 'yum install $(bootstrap_firmware)' will grab all your hardware specific firmware.

[CentOS] Opening a jar file from the desktop
I have java-1.7.0-openjdk installed on a CentOS-6.3 x86_64 system. On my desktop I have a jar file containing a calculator program which runs fine on CentOS-5 and on MS-Windows machines. On the CentOS-6 system when I right-click on the jar file and say open with java nothing apparently happens. When I double-click on it then I see a file browser window offering to extract the contents but there are no contents visible, only an empty / directory. If I go to the desktop in a terminal session and type java superbcalc.jar then I see this message: "Could not find or load main class superbcalc.jar" There is no CLASSPATH environment variable set by the system. If I provide one and include the current directory '.' I get the same error.

Generally not. It just means that you won't get any updates on packages that only exist in that repo. However there is some chance that a same-named package will appear with a higher version number in a different, enabled repo - and if it doesn't have the same origin there is some chance of it being incompatible in some way. This is more likely to result in a single broken app than yum conflicts, though. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] weird issue with qemu-kvm network...
Hello CentOS mailinglist I am running CentOS 6.3 with qemu-kvm and libvirt. I was experimenting with bridged VM networking. Usually the VMs run over the network device virbr0. So i created a new bridge with brctl and added my eth0 to that bridge. Not touching virbr0 or it's configuration at all. Then i edited the configuration xml from my VM with 'virsh edit vmname'. After that i decided to restart my server, basically just to 'reset' my network. I know, that's not necessary. But it's easier than risking connection loss and having to get physical access to the server ;) After the restart my virbr0 network device was gone! cat /var/log/dmesg | grep virbr0 returned nothing. cat /var/log/messages | grep virbr0 brought up nothing aswell. I tried to reinstall all relevant packages with yum reinstall qemu-kvm python-virtinst virt-top virt-viewer libvirt libvirt-client libvirt-python qemu-kvm-tools But with no success :( Does anyone have an idea how to recreate the default virbr0? Is it doable via virsh? I don't have a DE installed on this server, so no virtual-manager. I am willing to go that far if it's worth it though. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Although I do a fair amount from virsh and editing XML if you don't use a cluster manager/tool/IaaS like ovirt, openstack, archipel etc virt-manager is too useful not to have - especially to get console access to VMs nicely.

It's an old one i used when i didn't work with virsh, because i followed an old tutorial for kvm-qemu on CentOS 5. It basically creates a new bridge called bg0, creates a tap0 interface, and connects eth0 and tap0 to the bridge.

Err no... That's a terrible way to go about this. It's very not rhel and pretty flakey at best. You can do everything you need to in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-* Specifically you need ifcfg-br0 (or something similar) with type=Bridge (the capital B is important) this is where you should configure the network fit you physical host too. Then in your ifcfg-eth0 you link that to the bridge. For VMs you can then see this in virt-manager when building hosts and libvirt will automatically create appropriate vnetX virtual interfaces to bind to the bridge. This is off the top of my head whilst suffering insomnia so double check with the upstream documentation ;-) If you need bonding or vlans it becomes more complicated ;-) ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
