glibc-2.5-58.el5_6.2.i686 broken?
Hi, I woke up Saturday morning unable to boot my freshly upgraded 5.6 with grub hanging at "GRUB". After getting the boot loader fixed I experienced crashes in evolution. Downgrading glibc to 2.5-58 seems to fix these issues. Anyone else seeing this? Leonard. -- mount -t life -o ro /dev/dna /genetic/research

SRPMS are signed which allows the integrity of the contents to be checked. Such an integrity check is missing from the git repo. Either a checksum

Help setting up external drive via Firewire
I got a WD 1TB My Book with eSATA/USB/Firewire400 connectivity to backup data on a client Centos 5.1 machine. USB 2.0 works fine out of the box but is rather slow, Nautilus predicts about 1+ hour to fully backup just one day's worth of data or about 100GB. So I was hoping Firewire would be faster, which is why we got the version with all 3 interfaces to experiment with first. Following the

Suppose the adversary is aware of a root exploit/privilege escalation in a random library.

SSH Weak Ciphers
Hi, In a recent security review some systems I manage were flagged due to supporting "weak" ciphers, specifically the ones listed below. So first question is are people generally modifying the list of ciphers supported by the ssh client and sshd? On CentOS 6 currently it looks like if I remove all the ciphers they are concerned about then I am left with Ciphers

6.3 missing updates and packages
Hi, The fact that apparently the last tigervnc update from upstream was missed triggered me to check for missing updates and packages in 6.3. Here are my results. Sorry for any false positives that might have crept in, but note that some of the 6_x updates actually are updates and not a parsing error. And perhaps an occasional false positive due to having to compare upstream SRPMS vs downstream
