I'm outside my area of expertise here, but is there a reason you couldn't fake a second network card by assigning two IP addresses to the one interface? I recall that the OP had two routers on opposite ends of the same subnet. If each router used its own subnet and everything was connected by a hub instead of a switch, then wouldn't the server know which way the packets needed to go out? Or a switch that knows VLANs, but that might be needlessly complex. I realize that means installing a hub instead of a second network card, so I'm just asking for my own edification. There's no difference between a hub and switch with respect to routing. It might be possible to do something with a 2nd ip address in the same subnet used as the target of the port-forwarding from the other router along with policy based routing to make packets with that source ip take the other route. But that would introduce complications for normal outbound traffic. It may depend on the point of having the 2nd connection. Normally cable is so much faster than dls that you would always prefer it unless it was down. If the dsl is just for emergency inbound use you might run a VM configured with the other gateway as the default - maybe even set up openvpn there for fairly transparent access to the rest of the LAN. Surely the easiest thing would be to setup a jump host. Essentially, 1 or 2 servers, if you want resiliency, which you can SSH on to from the internet, and then from there access the rest of the network.

[CentOS] Setting up NFS on Centos 6.6

My copy of centos is running inside a virtual bubble. The server provider has loaded the nfsd module.

I've used an assortment of methods over the years including using fetchmail to drop in my own imap server host before gmail had imap itself. But, I've given up on thinking I can do it better than google does. > I have never seen an online email interface I liked, so I don't spend much > time in gmail's. I've grown to like gmail's web interface - or at least tolerate the parts I don't like to get the part I do - which is mostly the raw search capability that I use in favor of trying to categorize anything, plus the fact that it is always in perfect sync with my android phone where I read a lot but rarely type long replies. Try going into configuration settings to tune it more to your liking. You may want some of the 'labs' options. In particular I don't think I would like it without the auto-advance after archiving/deleting (that is, go to the next message instead of redrawing the index list). > One of the things that drove me to linux (and I liked rpm/yum better than > dpkg/apt) was microsoft disabling Windows Mail in Win7 to force people to > use their online 'Live' email. Given that you can use thunderbird on windows, that doesn't make much sense, but linux isn't a bad desktop these days. The main thing that keeps me from using an email 'application' for personal email is that I use an assortment of different machines during the day and don't want to be tied to one or deal with the differences in the way the apps would work across windows/linux/mac versions even if I went to the trouble to install it and configure imap sync everywhere. Plus, I really don't want to sync the huge 'all mail' archived folder but I want searches to go there. And, if you haven't used gmail/yahoo/hotmail (now outlook.com) for a while you might be surprised at how well the new web interfaces work and how much you can customize them. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Offline? What's that and why does it matter? I've already forgotten everything I can look up on google, so the world stops without access. But there is hardly anywhere I could go where I can't access gmail, at least through the phone.

Having just gone through the CentOS7 Desktop experience I would say that Mate is, for all intents and purposes, Gnome2 on CentOS-7. And KDE is, essentially the Windows XP desktop brought to Linux. Obviously there are differences, some more visible than others, but I believe that if you liked the XP desktop then go with KDE and if you preferred Gnome2 then go with Mate. Whatever you do, ditch Gnome3. It is an exercise in futility to try and get anything useful done in the way of sysadmin from the Gnome3 desktop without having to first research, install and configure a significant number of add-ons. None of which are guaranteed to work with the next point release of Gnome. > I've previously bought 2 copies of RedHat > so I *have* contributed $$ to the cause, but I don't care much > for the whole subscription model; Community support works fine > for me (if I was running a business on it, I'm certain I'd > feel differently about that). Do not count on your current feeling changing in that event. We had multiple copies of RedHat EL for several of the early iterations and we moved to WhiteBox -> CAOS -> CentOS. Primarily this was because, in most cases, we got quicker and more accurate answers to our support related questions on forums and mailing lists. I am sure RedHat support is of great value to many companies. Probably it is the case that the bigger the client is the better the value received. But for us the benefit obtained did not warrant the expenditure made. And, given the installed base ratio of CentOS:RHEL, I infer that this is the case for many, may others. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

While you put it in a directory that makes me think you have a 64-bit system, many of those directories that it finds are for 32-bit libraries.

[CentOS] EL5 Security Policy for the final 3 years
Red Hat's Security policy for Production 3 Phase of the Life Cycle for EL5 is that they will only release "Critical impact Security Advisories (RHSAs) and selected Urgent Priority Bug Fix Advisories (RHBAs) may be released as they become available. Other errata advisories may be delivered as appropriate." https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata/#Production_3_Phase In practice, what that means so far is this: All Important and Critical security updates have been released for EL5, but some moderate and below security updates have not been, and are not going to be released by Red Hat for EL5. I do not agree with this policy, but it is not one that the CentOS Project (or I) have any say about. These updates will not be released for RHEL-5 ... therefore they will also not be released for CentOS-5. Due to this security policy, I highly recommend moving CentOS-5 based workloads to CentOS-6 and that every user stop using CentOS-5 as soon as possible. Here is a list of updates that are not done on RHEL-5 and are not planned to be done at this time by Red Hat for RHEL-5 (and therefore CentOS-5): > ruby Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-8080 > pythonLow > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-7185 > libgcrypt Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-5270 > wget Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-4877 > perl-Data-Dumper Low > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-4330 > cups Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-3537 > dbus Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-3477 > dovecot Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-3430 > exim Low > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-2972 > cups Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-2856 > openssh Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-2653 > libxml2 Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-0191 > qemu Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2013-6458 > squid Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2012-5643 > openssh Low > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2014-2532 > libX11Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2013-1997 > libFS Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2013-1996 > libXext Moderate > https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2013-1982 > I wish there was another option, but I just don't see any others ..

You may be onto something, because I *am* using IMAP (TB's default during account setup) instead of POP3. I'll be looking around in gmail next to see if there's some way to pre-sort mail from centos.org (as Miranda implied) before whatever mail app I'm using at the time fetches it. I have never seen an online email interface I liked, so I don't spend much time in gmail's. One of the things that drove me to linux (and I liked rpm/yum better than dpkg/apt) was microsoft disabling Windows Mail in Win7 to force people to use their online 'Live' email. I primarily use pop (and imap and gmail interface when I need to), but since I read email with different focus when I'm at home or at work, popping the msgs has turned out to be the most efficient way for me to operate. I also have gmail filters set up. My centos filter is dead simple: Matches: to:(centos@centos.org) Do this: Skip Inbox, Mark as read, Apply label "Lists/centos", Never send it to Spam So in the gmail interface and in the gmail imap setup in TB, I have a nice little cubbyhole that has all the centos emails in it. Then when my TB clients pop the messages, they filter with this one: name="CentOS" enabled="yes" type="17" action="Move to folder" actionValue="mailbox://nobody@Local%20Folders/08%20Lists/CentOS/centos" action="Stop execution" condition="OR (all addresses,contains,centos@centos.org) OR (all addresses,contains,mailman-ow...@centos.org)" Interestingly, the filter in my home TB lacks the JunkScore=0 action, but seems to work just as well as the one at work that includes it. Hope this helps. Miranda ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

This is not for browsing, it's about running live server tests with selenium. The machine the tests have been running on had FF 24.3.0 and it died. The new machine has 31.2.0 and the tests are failing. I want to see if it's due to the different version. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I don't use the gmail interface for day-to-day email processing, for precisely that reason. It is why I resort to TB. When I'm at work I read all email with a work-centric focus. When I'm at home I read all email with a not-so-work-centric focus (unless I'm working from home, as I am today). But all email gets pulled to both locations. If something kills my work pc, I have a copy at home and vice versa. Which is handy when my email goes back 15+ years and google won't let me keep it all there without paying for it which I'd rather not do. For the older email, those TB clients are the only copies I have.

I did have the 32 bit version. I see what happened - I downloaded both, but both times I un-tarred the same file (the 32 bit one). They were downloaded with the same name and wget put (1) on the second one, but I didn't notice that. The 64 bit one works fine.

[/joke] I used to pull copies to my own server with fetchmail, and later imap-synced with thunderbird (sometimes including the All Mail folder). But the computers that used to do that have all died of old age so I gave up on being more reliable than google.

I don't use the gmail interface for day-to-day email processing, for precisely that reason. It is why I resort to TB. I don't get it. Why auto-mark read in the first place? Marking it as read removes it from my gmail inbox for the times when I ~do~ need to read email using the gmail interface. When I'm at work I read all email with a work-centric focus. I have a completely separate work account. With its own restrictions and retention policies. It hasn't always been that way but it seems easier now (someone else manages that server). I could do that I suppose, but I haven't and probably wouldn't have the time necessary to separate out the emails between the two accounts. I already have 6+ email accounts that I have to monitor so I'd rather not fork off another if I can help it. Which is handy when my email goes back 15+ years and google won't let me keep it all there without paying for it which I'd rather not do. I have 100+GB of google-space without paying extra, I think partly as a side effect of the android phone I use. And I don't think there is any time-related restriction. It's not the time, just the byte volume. I get ~15GB of space for free per account, I think. For the older email, those TB clients are the only copies I have. Even though I have backups, I still do this because recovery has been very quick this way (just replace the dead profile with the good one).
