My machine has a static IP, with dhcp and IPv6 disabled. Every time I reboot, some process rewrites /etc/resolv.conf, including a comment about dhcpclient. The only package I have installed that shows up in "rpm -qa|grep -i dhcp" is dhcpv6-client-1.0.10-16.el5, and nothing in there is named dhcpclient. I'd like to figure out what software is rewriting this file and why. man 5

Sorry, I think I am missing something. What is the rpm/package called? So is it i386 installed on x8664, or what? Google's website still claims it

Should I report this as a bug somewhere? Or is it just a problem with the old fedora box, probably fixed long ago and not relevant to the centos list? On the server side, theme4, a very old fedora box, exports t4d5 via NFS. t4d5 is big, has lots of space, and the user tobiasf has plenty of quota: [root at theme4 ~]# quota -vls tobiasf|grep sdf /dev/sdf1 1312G 4578G 4769G

Here is a list of files that I have not (knowingly) modified that do not pass rpm verification immediately after I installed centos 5.3. I am not really sure what this means - are the packagers sending out sloppy rpms, or is something going around modifying stuff? Other than the texmf stuff, the list seems to consist entirely of config files. Does yum or rpm or something do some instant

In our computer lab, there are 6 Centos 5.4 workstations. There is an HP printer with jet direct card. It often works. But sometimes users come and get me saying the printer is broken, but it is actually working fine for *most* of the workstations. On the troubled system, I run system-config-printer and I check the printer in question (under properties) and I see the printer has been disabled.

I want to add up the quotas I've assigned on a particular partition and see if the total is bigger than the disk. It's possible to do this (awkwardly) using repquota or quota. Is there no more accurate/elegant way? I can't be the first person to worry that more quota has been issued than the disk can supply. mahalo and Happy New Year, Dave -- Q: Why should this email be 5 sentences or

Graphic installer doesn't like my graphics card, so I am using the text installer. I have two physical disks in my system. When I get to the "partitioning type" page, I choose "remove all partitions on selected drives [etc]" and put an asterisk next to sda, no asterisk next to sdb. I want to use sdb as a separate partition, no LVM, I figure I can set it up after

I just installed centos on a Dell that used to have 2 internal disks, but I removed one just before the install. Now when I boot it, it stops and outputs a message complaining about the missing disk and I have to hit F1 to get it to continue booting. Is there some bios setting that is causing this? Obviously, I'd like it to just forget about the missing disk and go ahead and boot with just

I was trying to install software named ncview on a centos 5.3 box. ./configure command gave this error: Error, the X libraries and development headers must be installed for ncview to work! I was surprised that there were many google hits related to ubuntu, none for centos. So even though I eventually figured out what to do, I decided to share this with the list anyhow, so maybe next time I
