[CentOS] exim-mysql without MySQL support from epel

[Fosforo]

# head -1 /etc/centos-release
CentOS release 6.5 (Final)

Anyone using exim with MySQL support from epel without compiling direct
from sources?

I installed both packages below from epel:

Installing:
 exim
x86_64
4.72-5.el6
epel   1.2 M
 exim-mysql
x86_64
4.72-5.el6
epel24 k

# rpm -qa | grep exim

exim-mysql-4.72-5.el6.x86_64
exim-4.72-5.el6.x86_64

The .so seems to be included:

# locate lookup | grep mysql
/usr/lib64/exim/4.72-5.el6/lookups/mysql.so

but no suppport builtin in the binary:

# exim -bV | grep Lookup
Lookups (built-in): lsearch wildlsearch nwildlsearch iplsearch cdb dbm
dbmnz dnsdb dsearch ldap ldapdn ldapm nis nis0 nisplus passwd sqlite

Am I doing something wrong?

If it is a module, isn't it normal that it is not built-in?
What is your error message...?
It just works here, with a conf like:

  hide mysql_servers = .../.../...

  CHECK_ACCESS = ${lookup mysql \
  {select ... from ... where ... = 
'${quote_mysql:$local_part}'} \
  {$value}fail}

  ...

  localuser_virtual:
    driver = accept
    condition = CHECK_ACCESS
    retry_use_local_part
    transport = local_delivery_virtual

Pretty much what we did at work. These days, instead, we keep / to 500G (-1G 
for /boot, and 2G for swap), and the fourth partition is -grow. Keeps user 
data, etc, from eating /

[CentOS] Can't add printer

[Wes James]

I tried to add the printer:

HP Color LaserJet CP4020 Series Printer 

but CentOS 7 must not know what driver to use.

I was able to add a brother 7050 printer (with an HP compatible driver??)

Is there a way to get a driver for the hp cp4020?

I googled for centos and this hp printer and looked on the hp driver site, but 
didn't find any info.

Thanks,

Are you adding the printer from the CUPS webui?

You may not find any Linux drivers on the official driver page but ...
try the HPLIP drivers

I haven't used it in a while, since we mostly use pxeboot, but - happy,

I initially tried to set up the printer from Applications/System 
Tools/Settings/Printers.  I then went and looked at CentOS 6.5 and it had a 
different tool, so went poking around in the menus and found 
Applications/Sundry/Print Settings and that let me get further with setting up 
the printer. After setting up the printer there was this message

Missing Driver

Printer requires ‘/usr/lib/cups/filer/hpps’ program but is not currently 
installed.

Thankfully just a few days ago the question came how to find a file in a 
package so I tried:

yum whatprovides hpps

but nothing so I tried

yum what provides */hpps

and it said it was in hplip so I installed that.

I click on OK on the error and attempted to print a Test Page.  But nothing 
came out.  Do I need to restart cups after adding hplip?

I found the Print Status and the job says “Stopped"

Thanks,

I just tried the ps driver and the pcl3 driver that is available for this 
printer, but now it gets stuck with "Pending" in either driver.

You can try running hp-setup  (or hp-setup -i 
the hplip's own setup program.

[CentOS] CentOS 7, networkmangler, and hostname

[m . roth]

I've a 7 box (actually, it's RHEL, but the general list there is
moribund), and I'm trying to configure it "correctly" so that it gets its
hostname from the DHCP server. All I've found so far is a script to use
from hooks of some kind. *Surely* there's just a configuration file option
somewhere

  Best I found using network manager is writing a script,
dhclient-exit-hooks.d/hostname
(http://askubuntu.com/questions/104918/how-to-get-hostname-from-dhcp-server).
There is also a way to do that using systemd-networkd; I am not very
proud to say I know how to do so though.

I've been digging, and found something a) confusing and b) disturbing. But
first, *does* NM use any of the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts *other*
than the ifcfg-? Specifically, does it use ifup, ifdown, and
esp. ifup-post?

Here's the reason: in ifup-post is the following code:
# don't set hostname on ppp/slip connections
if [ "$2" = "boot" -a \
 "${DEVICE}" != lo -a \
 "${DEVICETYPE}" != "ppp" -a \
 "${DEVICETYPE}" != "slip" ]; then
if need_hostname; then
IPADDR=$(LANG=C ip -o -4 addr ls dev ${DEVICE} | awk '{ print $4 ;
exit }')
eval $(/bin/ipcalc --silent --hostname ${IPADDR} ; echo "status=$?")
if [ "$status" = "0" ]; then
set_hostname $HOSTNAME
fi
fi
fi

Now, that function, need_hostname, is in network-functions, and reads:
need_hostname ()
{
CHECK_HOSTNAME=$(hostname)
if [ "$CHECK_HOSTNAME" = "(none)" -o "$CHECK_HOSTNAME" = "localhost" -o \
"$CHECK_HOSTNAME" = "localhost.localdomain" ]; then
return 0
else
return 1
fi
}

So it *should* be setting it... if it's called.

  My experience with NM is from ubuntu, over there if you
configure an interface in the /etc/network/interfaces file (their
equivalent of /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts , it *should* not try to
fondle that interface any longer. That said, the network-scripts do
have a

NM_CONTROLLED=no

option, so NM must at least check for that. I have a feeling if you
set that to yes, it will ignore the rest of the file and do its own
thing.

There is also a /etc/NetworkManager/ directory which seems to imply
that NM does a lot of things on its own and ignore the old network
config files. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=667874 and
the picture in 
http://serverfault.com/questions/429014/what-is-the-relation-between-networkmanager-and-network-service-in-fedora-rhel-c
seem  to confirm that.

Sorry for the delay, I had a couple of other interrupts to deal with.
As can be seen below, both CPU cards include PAE support. Both were running 
with just the CPU card (with its built-in peripheral interfaces), hard-drive 
and power supply.
While collecting the information below, I played with kernel options and 
happened to find that with the 
RTD cme37786hx I could get it to boot reliably from the hard-drive if I 
included 
" noapic nomodeset udevtrace" (in that order) replacing the "quiet rhgb" *AND* 
either use the
 CentOS 6.3 install kernel or update to the latest CentOS 6.5 kernel. 
 The CentOS 6.5 DVD installed kernel would pause forever just after trying 
'edd'.

As for the VL-EPMs-21b, even though it worked OK in CentOS 5.9, it would always 
stop in the UDEV 
startup of CentOS 6.5 even after updating to the latest 6.5 kernel and using 
the above kernel options. Interestingly though while working with it, I noticed 
a little brown cube on the ESD bench where the 
board had been setting.  Who would think that a missing capacitor might stop a 
new kernel,
 with a much faster IO engine, from accessing all the hardware in parallel (max 
power pull) at 
entry into user space? :)  
Beginning to think this one is not CentOS's fault. :) 
Fortunately I am expecting to get a new, not used before I got it, version ... 
sometime. :)

So I guess it is sort of solved for now.
Thanks for taking  a look.

[CentOS] Info to upstream centos mirror: file centos/7.0.1406/os/x86_64/LiveOS/squashfs.img IS CORRUPT !

[Andreas Balg]

Hello,

i've been struggling hard to setup our automated PXE/kickstart system
using various local mirrors
but it alway hung after partitioning with no further exception. When I
encountered squshfs errors
on the Console (text based / kickstart installation) I re-synced (rsync)
with CERN mirror afterwards with
switch.ch mirror and fh-esslingen - But the squashfs image remained corrupt.

To prove my suspicion i've finally copied the file from Netboot.iso into
our local mirror and voilà -
finally the installation works as expected.

Just wanted to let you know - it might save man people from many hours
of trouble ...

Please check - and keep up the great work  :-)

Cheers
Andreas
