Hi all, This is an interesting thread: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos/2014-April/141871.html about the problems you can find building perl modules for CentOS releases (new or old). I agree with John R. Pierce: cpan is very very bad tool ( in fact, I hate it) to build perl modules

[CentOS] trouble installing Math::BigInt module

I had to move a perl script from an old server to a new one. Both the old and new servers are running "CentOS release 5.10 (Final)" and perl v5.8.8. (But the problem I'm running into appears to be a package management problem and not a Perl problem which is why I'm posting it to a CentOS list.

Do you actually want the data to be available to both domains at the same time? Or could you setup different directories? If you want them to be both available you could label it postgresql_db_t, and then turn on the samba_export_all_ro_boolean or samba_export_all_rw_boolean. If this was to loo

Initial reaction: Crap! One of the best things about CentOS, in my opinion, was not having to deal with all the different RHEL builds/releases/whatever they called them, and just having ONE distribution. So much for that. It didn't take long for Red Hat to get their mitts all over CentOS, huh?
