[CentOS] NSS Tools certutil buggy ? Centos 6 nss-tools-3.18.0

2015-05-29 Thread Götz Reinicke - IT Koordinator
Hi,

I try to add a certificate to a fresh certificate db, but the trust
attributes are not set as expected. Neither can I change tham.

The cert/pem is valid and double checked :)


Any idea/suggestion?


certutil -N -d certdb-test

certutil -A -n "foobar" -t "u,u,u" -d certdb-test/ -i foobar.pem

certutil -L -d certdb-test/


Certificate NicknameTrust Attributes
SSL,S/MIME,JAR/XPI
foobar ,,



certutil -M -n "foobar" -t "u,u,u" -d /tmp/certdb-test/


certutil -L -d certdb-test/

Certificate NicknameTrust Attributes
SSL,S/MIME,JAR/XPI
foobar ,,





Thanks and regards . Götz

I did add something to Mariadb on the new CentOS-7 system,
but I don't mind deleting it and starting again.
I can mount the partition with the old mysql files on it.
Could I just copy the contents of /mnt/var/lib/mysql
to the new system?
There are files with the same name, eg ibdata1, on both systems.
Could I have an ibdata2 ?

Any suggestions gratefully received.

If you don't care about the new data, you can:

1) shut down MariaDB
2) rename /var/lib/mysql to /var/lib/mysql.orig
3) copy the old directory /var/lib/mysql - /mnt/var/lib/mysql in your 
case  - do not forget the permissions! - to /var/lib/mysql

4) systemctl start mysql (or mysqld, can't remember)
5) run mysql_upgrade - this is a script, which changes the mysql.user 
etc tables with the new columns
6) There are some issues with PHP for example, when you have an user in 
mysql system tables, that has an old hash password, so you need to 
reenter the password to update the hash


I did it many times this way and everything went smoothly.

Good luck and don't forget to make some backups just in case;)

Re: [CentOS] Booting back into CentOS-6

2015-05-29 Thread philburt stortsky
This, IMHO, is one of the more annoying bugs with the newer GRUB (which i 
assume is the bootloader you are using).  Specifically the newer grub can't, 
won't boot from a drive other than the one grub is on.  suggest you revert to 
grub 0.97 or, if any boot loader is or can be put on the drive with the 6.5 
distro you can make that drive the boot drive in the bios, which is how i do 
it.  i.e. i just put grub on any drive i might want to boot from and install 
etc. with the drive i want to be able to boot to set as the boot drive in the 
bios.  of course, depending on how you are mounting drives this may break links 
etc. since the bios will have different names for the drives due to the 
different order of the boot media list in the bios.  hope that helps, it is 
highly annoying.

[CentOS] Native ZFS on Linux

2015-05-29 Thread Chuck Munro
I have a question that has been puzzling me for some time ... what is 
the reason RedHat chose to go with btrfs rather than working with the 
ZFS-on-Linux folks (now OpenZFS)?  Is it a licensing issue, political, etc?


Although btrfs is making progress, ZFS is far more mature, has a few 
more stable features (especially Raid-z3) and has worked flawlessly for 
me on CentOS-6 and Scientific Linux-6.  I used ZFS for a couple of large 
file servers with no problems.  The only annoying part was having to 
manually install the kernel module each time a kernel update was issued.


Because FreeBSD has built-in drivers for LSI cards (I use JBOD mode) and 
strong ZFS support, I've switched to FreeNAS with it's default native 
ZFS and driver support for LSI.  I would have preferred to stick with 
CentOS, but FreeNAS just made things easier to manage.  It also seems 
about twice as fast as ZFS on Linux (same hardware), but that may simply 
be a tuning issue.


Is there any chance that a native ZFS (rather than btrfs) will ever 
emerge in RHEL/CentOS?  Just curious, because I'd love to return to 
CentOS/SL next time I build large file servers.


As an aside, I have used only WD Black and WD RedPro drives for RAID, 
and not had any issues.  Green drives are scary :-)

I saw the same behaviour this morning, however the labels changed to
"unlabelled" for a number of programs; e.g. /etc/ssh/sshd_config,
/etc/shadow, /etc/pam/* and a few others. I saw this after I was not able
to login to my laptop, login to single user mode and saw tonnes of SELinux
errors and changed it from enforcing to permissive and then I was able to
restore the labels.

Most certainly believe its a bug.

Licensing, IMO.  Redistributing ZoL is likely fraught with a bit of
legal peril, or at best, technical peril if you want to try and skirt
the legal edges.  Oracle is notoriously litigious and having a target
liked Red Hat would probably have their lawyers whetting their chops.

Ironically, btrfs was also an Oracle thing -- in that Chris Mason
worked for them (believe he's now at Google?).

Do agree that ZFS feels like what btrfs is trying to become.  I use ZoL
on some production boxes and its been quite stable, but am also
considering the approach you've taken with FreeNAS for some larger
deployments to chase after a bit more performance and tighter
integration with the OS...

Licensing.  Sun chose an Open Source license that is incompatible with
the GPLv2 as used by the Linux kernel, so it is not legally possible to
distribute a combined work of the kernel and the Sun ZFS code (at least
that's the opinion of a number of lawyers, including Red Hat's; not all
agree, but not worth arguing about here).  It is possible to access ZFS
filesystems through the FUSE layer using Sun-derived code (because that
doesn't create a combined work), but that's not really an "enterprise"
filesystem access method.

The only legal way to use ZFS natively under Linux would be to not use
any of the Sun code and reimplement ZFS from scratch for Linux.  That
would be a large job.

BTRFS also is much better integrated with the Linux kernel's way of
doing things.  The Linux ZFS port keeps its own cache separate from the
kernel's page cache, which complicates memory management.  Also, BTRFS
has features that ZFS does not.

I expect BTRFS to get a lot more mature in the near future, as Facebook
is putting resources into moving parts of their infrastructure to BTRFS.

It's the TLER that kills you. We tried some early 3TB greens in some of
our Penguins (OEM, rebranded Supermicro), and within a month, they'd start
giving DRDY errors. It turns out that there were two issues:
   1. They keep trying to spin down; ok in desktops, bad, bad, bad on
servers.
 And this is *not* RAID, just as a plain vanilla drive.
   2. Around '09, led by WD, they changed the firmware. Previously, you could
 use hdparm to set the TLER; after then, it was not user settable.
 TLER: if the drive finds a bad sector, this is how long it will
retry
 before giving up, and rewriting it to another sector, marking
that bad.
 The greens try for up to two ->minutes<-; servers' firmware
expects this
 to happen in < 7 ->seconds<-. System is *not* happy

Straight out of the box policy. I've just looked, and I don't think I've
even created any local policies to shut up selinux for things my users
might do.

I can tell, since I always create the local policies in /root. Luckily,
we're in permissive mode - these aren't production servers, they're work
machines, compute nodes or research.

[CentOS] Getting Megaraid Software Manager Installed On CentOS 7

2015-05-29 Thread Kirk Bocek
Well I'm pleased that my raid card post brought all the enthusiasts out 
of the woodwork. So who has installed LSI's MSM software under CentOS 7?


I've downloaded the linux-x64 package from:

http://www.lsi.com/products/raid-controllers/pages/megaraid-sas-9361-8i.aspx

Extracted the files and run "install.csh -a". This installs 
vivaldiframeworkd under /etc/rc.d/init.d and that runs fine. I can 
access the host from a Windows install of MSM just fine.


What seems to missing is the monitoring software. I think the run-time 
script is called mr_monitor. It doesn't seem to be installed. Attempts 
to configure monitor alerts from Windows returns "monitor is unreachable."


Does anyone have any idea what is going on?

My guess is that I am loading generuc X11 by default. How do I specify in 
the etc/systemd/system/vncserver@:4.service file that I want it to load 
gnome?

I tried editing my .vnc/xstartup file but that seems to have no effect.

my xstartup file

#!/bin/sh

exec gnome-session &

I've noticed this yesterday when I was trying to install something not
EPEL in the box configured to use EPEL as well.

If you need something urgent, you may go directly to one of the mirrors.
Here is URL of the one I maintain:

http://bay.uchicago.edu/epel/

Thanks.

This works fine for me, and the DNS for mirrors.fedoraproject.org
looks fine too -- points to the cname wildcard.fedoraproject.org.,
which resolves to 8 A-records, with 60sec TTLs (for my US/east coast
location). Did you check to see what your DNS is showing?

Never mind. I tried it again and it worked with just the gnome-session in 
the xstartup file.

I used to configure Googles DNS 8.8.8.8 as additional dns-server and it
works now here from germany.

Strange thing...

probably won't work at all, as its dependencies are very likely to be 
all wrong.


compat packages in RHEL/CentOS are designed to go back one major 
release.  So, compat-gcc34 on EL6 was designed for EL5 
compatibility. on EL7, there's a compat-gcc-44 to provide EL6 
compatibility.


I suggest you recompile whatever software depends on gcc 3.4 to run with 
el7's native gcc 4.8

[CentOS] Project Management Software

2015-05-29 Thread H
I have a need to use a project management software package under Centos 6.6 and 
have started looking at ProjectLibre which is a Java package.

Unfortunately it seems to have shortcomings when it comes to following up 
projects and my current understanding is that it falls short of Microsoft 
Project 2010, i.e., a previous version.

Does anyone have experience with this type of software and what would you 
recommend?

Thank you in advance.

Re: [CentOS] Using Mariadb databases from old server

I'm running CentOS-7, but I left some MySQL databases

Or is there some way Mariadb or phpMyAdmin can import mysql databases
from a server that is no longer running?


The C6 partition is part of the new server, so you are able to mount it
and copy files from it, is this correct? Have you done something with
the MariaDB or it's still clean installation?


I did add something to Mariadb on the new CentOS-7 system,
but I don't mind deleting it and starting again.
I can mount the partition with the old mysql files on it.
Could I just copy the contents of /mnt/var/lib/mysql
to the new system?
There are files with the same name, eg ibdata1, on both systems.
Could I have an ibdata2 ?


This is what I ran into trying to clone a web server on C7 (doing this
from memory):
There is something in the database file /var/lib/mysql that has to match
something elsewhere on the machine.  Apparently the match is created during 
the mariadb-server.rpm installation.  I found two ways to transfer

a /var/lib/mysql file successfully.
1. Transfer the file before installing mariadb-server.rpm
or
2. After copying the file over the existing one,
yum reinstall mariadb-server

Hope this helps,
