similar to: dhclient.conf being ignored!

I am looking to be a bit more standard in the builds of my CentOS rpms, and so I was about to install mock but noticed that there is one provided in the centos/5/extras and another in epel. epel is obviously newer, but are there reasons/experiences in this group that would suggest sticking with the extras version instead? Or even reasons other than the shiny version number on the epel one to

I am working on moving some nfs shares from an older Linux system to CentOS5 server. some are used by the machine and its clients as $HOME (but not mounted at /home) and working directories. using selinux-policy-targeted. Are there any selinux policy additions (so restorecon keeps them each time it is ran) I should be looking to make before trying to slip the new system in under the users

Can someone hit me with the appropriate clue-by-4? is there an available package for CentOS5 which provides the metafont command, or a replacement? What is the name and which repo? please. I have a font bundle I need to use (which is not provided in an RPM that I can find), but metafont does not seem to be available. tetex provides the /usr/share/texmf/metafont directory structure, but not a

If a hostname is requested, for example -d ::::foo::dhcp, then include the hostname in the DHCP discover/request. This patch also allows the vendor class identifier to be omitted from the DHCP discover/request by specifying -i "" Signed-off-by: Aron Griffis <agriffis at n01se.net> --- usr/kinit/ipconfig/dhcp_proto.c | 49 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------

I am trying to add 127.0.0.1 to my resolv.conf. I added it through the system-config-network but if I reboot, its gone. I do not have the caching nameserver package installed. My ISP's nameservers are there. It must have something to do with DHCP. Also, in the network config GUI, should I select the IPv6 option for either or both network cards? TIA

Hello Is there a way for the dhcp client to send the current host name of the machine when requesting a lease ? Currently I have to include a line like DHCP_HOSTNAME=appserver2 in my /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0, but I would like to tell the dhcp client to just 'also send the hostname' and then the client to get the current hostname itself, instead of having the name

I successfully created an install media on a USB flash drive, but now I have a minor problem installing from it. Whenever I run the installer, it insists on installing grub on /dev/sdb (the flash drive) rather than /dev/sda (the hard drive where I'm installing everything). Is there a way to convince the installer to put grub in the right place? Should I just tell it not to install grub and

It seems that the past month or so the CentOS Announce list digest has no longer been sent out to the general CentOS list ( this list ) although the CentOS Web site still says that this list is subscribed to the Announce list in digest form. I've been checking, and the announce message does not seem to be getting caught in any spam filter that I use. Is this broken, or am I missing something

It appears that if I do anything to grub.conf, say, take out the rhgb quiet, after every succeding kernel update, I have to manually edit grub.conf, because the kernel update - maybe the post install script? - will set the default to be the previous kernel. Has anyone got a solution to this, so that a kernel update will give the new kernel as the default? mark

Anyone working with/using it? One thing that's driving me nuts is that it keeps spitting garbage into the logs (card absent or mute!!!). I just tried editing /etc/init.d/pcscd - there's *no* way to pass parms from the config file - and set the logging level to --error, and it's still doing it. Clues for the poor, to shut it up? mark

I am trying to mirror a directory using wget and the resulting files as expected are taking the name of the string in the url after the last "/". Anyone know a way around this? I am using the mirror option so I don't have to keep track of what to get making it simple. Thanks! jlc

Hi, I would like to have a software protection for my hardisk. I have some query regarding that (1) In Centos, is it possible to do a hardisk protection. Ex : Even if the hardisk is taken from a PC and used on another PC, it should not be executable. (2) Also if the entire binary of the source is mounted on a partition say /tmp, is it possible to make that mount point as protected,

Hi We use CentOS and RHEL, the 5.5 RHEL ISO for x86_64 is 3.7GB (**), the CentOS one is 4602MB (***) split over two DVDs. Is this reasonable and correct? Any ideas why would there be such a discrepancy if they are built from the same (or very similar) source? Regards Anthony Caetano ** the md5sum checks out, and RHN lists the size as 3,532 MB *** CentOS-5.5-x86_64-bin-DVD-1of2.iso +

Noted that xterm by default uses 24 lines per window. I have reviewed /etc/termcap looking for a specific entry for xterm that I can edit to change the ln#24 to ln#25 for our application. When I used RedHat there was an editable option to change the number of displayable lines as is done in putty. Any suggestions? --Hal. -- Hal Davison Observe Goal, Set the course, Burn the map

Convey uses a highly modified CentOS kernel to work with our attach coprocessor. Currently to setup a system for delivery we do a cold install using a "stock" CentOS cold install using kickstart. During that cold install we lay down our modified kernel and reboot the system with that kernel. After the reboot we are able to access the coprocessor management processor and down

This occasionally happens to me when I've been editing an OOo document that resides on a flash drive I use with one of my laptops. I've tried poking around in ps to find out which process has the drive locked, and I can't figure it out. Nothing directly refers to the flash drive except one of the hald processes, and it's just scanning the drive (I tried killing that and it made
