[CentOS] BackupPC problem - wrong user

[Timothy Murphy]

I recently moved BackupPC from CentOS-6 to CentOS-7.
But when I browse to localhost/BackupPC I'm told
  Error: Wrong user: my userid is 48[apache], instead of 984(backuppc)

As far as I can tell, the BackupPC settings are exactly the same
as they were before the move.

It seems htttpd is running the program as user apache
rather than backuppc, as required.
Is there a simple setting in /etc/httpd/ that will tell httpd
to run as a different user?

[CentOS] How to rebuild logrotate.status

[Robert Moskowitz]

I have a problem in that at first all my log files were dated 12-31-1969 
and logrotate has:

It is not the backuppc settings, it is your apache settings.  The
default setup requires that apache is setup to run as:

 User backuppc
 Group backuppc

There are other ways to do this if you have to have httpd run as the
apache user for other things, but the easiest thing to do (if you can),
is to set the User and Group to backuppc in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
and restart httpd.

I have not run backuppc on CentOS-7 (I ran it on CentOS-6), I have not
run it in 3 years, and my backuppc machine(s) had no other things on
them that needed to run httpd for any other reason .. so others might
have better advise if your machine is not single purpose.

Re: [CentOS] named Update Problem

[Ron Loftin]

Here are the relevant lines from my /etc/named.conf file on CentOS 5.

directory "/var/named";

zone "43.168.192.in-addr.arpa" {
type master;
file "data/192.168.43";
};

This will create/modify file "/var/named/data/192.168.43" and works with
no issues after an upgrade.

[CentOS] CentOS 7.1.1503 + Dovecot + IPA

[Kanwar Ranbir Sandhu]

Hi Everyone,

I'm running an IPA server on CentOS 7 successfully and now I want to
change my Dovecot setup to use GSSAPI for IMAP authentication instead
of a flat "userdb" file. I've already joined the Dovecot box to the IPA
domain - ssh and ipa policies and all that are working properly.

I read a number of articles on how to configure Dovecot for GSSAPI auth
and they all said the same thing (even Red Hat's official how to on it
agreed). But, when I set up Evolution on my Fedora 22 system to use
GSSAPI, Dovecot's log records this:

Sep  8 13:49:55 mailman02 dovecot: auth: Panic: file auth-request.c:
line 733 (auth_request_is_disabled_master_user): assertion failed:

I've already asked on the Dovecot list about my GSSAPI auth problems
and was told that this is a bug in Dovecot which does not exist in the
latest release (I don't know when the problem was actually fixed).

My question is simply this: does anyone else have
dovecot-2.2.10-4.el7_0.1.x86_64 working with GSSAPI auth against an IPA
server? IPA is also running on CentOS 7.1.1503.

Re: [CentOS] rsync question

[Robert Moskowitz]

I ran it again but with:

rsync -ah --stats --delete -e "ssh -p613 -l root" 
192.168.192.2:/etc/name* /home/rgm/data/htt/httnet/homebase/new/newetc


And the newetc directory was created with all the files.  I again ran:

rsync -ah --stats --delete -e "ssh -p613 -l root" 
192.168.192.2:/etc/name* /home/rgm/data/htt/httnet/homebase/new/etc


And none of the /etc/name.* files get moved.  Strange.

Well I got my backup.

The stats shows it sees all the files, but only moves the dir /etc/named
and the files within it.

It does not move the /etc/name* files (like /etc/named.conf).

By file count, it is 'seeing' all the files, but not moving them.

Re: [CentOS] CentOS 7.1.1503 + Dovecot + IPA

[Alice Wonder]

You could try rebuilding this src.rpm -

http://awel.domblogger.net/7/libre/src/repoview/dovecot.html

That's what I use for Dovecot on CentOS 7 but I build it against 
LibreSSL so you probably don't want my binary RPM but the src.rpm will 
build against stock CentOS OpenSSL just fine w/o modification.


I don't know if it will fix your issue but it is latest release that the 
dovecot list claims has the issue fixed.

[CentOS] Saving session with terminal window open upon logout

[Gilbert Sebenste]

Hello everyone,

I tried Googling this, looking through admin notes...and I couldn't find 
this. And I know someone smart out here has the answer!


When I log out of a user account, I want it to, when I log back in,
have a terminal window pop up on my Gnome windows display, as I did
before I logged out.

How do I save a session before or as I log out? I am running
Centos 6.7, 64-bit.

I was able to get h.264 support on www.youtube.com/html5 on fedora 21 by
installing

gstreamer1-libav

but that package does not exist in C6 (or it's popular third party repos)

What is the name of the package which adds h.264 to firefox on

I think you'll find that package in the nux repo:

  gstreamer1-libav.x86_64  1.0.6-1.el7.nux  

I don't know if that will do what you're after, and I can't try this
out as my desktop machines are all C7. 

More detail on that repository can be found at:

I had already looked at the nux repo. They may have that package for C7 but
I can't see it for C6.

I'm thinking h.264 gstreamer support must be provided by another package in
C6.

I have gstreamer-plugins-base & good installed. And I've already tried ugly
and gstreamer-ffmpeg.

Sorry, I didn't have that repository set up for C6 and when trying
to do a quick switch I didn't actually manage to switch it from C7
to C6. I agree, I don't see it there for C6, even in their -testing.

Looking at rpmfind it appears to be available from RpmFusion back to
fedora-18. That may not be old enough (forget what the fc "base" is
for C6), but you may be able to find older fc versions with a little
looking.
