Hello everyone: I tried following the instructions on this page to set up a VNC server: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/VNC-Server I can telnet to port 5901 from the machine itself: # telnet 127.0.0.1 5901 Trying 127.0.0.1...

Hello: I just did a fresh install of CentOS 6.2 on a virtual server.

just to follow on my earlier post, i have pointers to a couple commercial C/W manuals for RHEL administration, but both of them use an entire chapter discussing virtualization using Xen. i'm under the impression that RH is firmly in the KVM camp (at least for now), and that learning Xen on red hat/centos wouldn't be as useful as learning KVM. thoughts? rday --

Are "centralized" database (SQL) servers best left out of virtualization and committed to their own hardware like the "old days" or are there some guidelines one should consider in setting them up? I'm not talking mega-large recordsets, but large enough to handle multiple years of CRMs and intensive querying, Accounting Systems and so forth. Fundamental website CMS

Adobe doesn't seem to have acroread for x86_64 linux, or at least I don't see it anywhere. Anybody know otherwise?

Hi buddies I attempt to compile a kernel on CentOS 5.3. The kernel version is 2.6.31.6. All make procedure is running ok. I can generate initrd image with no problem too. But, when I try booting this kernel, I get Kernel panic: Setting up other filesystems.

I have always been able to browse, without any problems, http://www.mobile-review.com/index-en.shtml but for the past 2 or 3 days, Mozilla Firefox just hangs "connecting to ...." How can I tell if they have started blocking IP addresses from Colombia? I would like to do that, before I post to the IPCop mailing list. I have my IPCop box set up to do DNS Caching, so possibly something

I need to configure a small proxy appliance which doesn't require a lot of CPU power. I'm looking for any warnings this group may have regarding CentOS-5 on the following: - Acer AspireRevo 3610 (Atom CPU) - Dell Inspiron 537s (Celeron) - Any other small machines you might recommend (UL approved) I need to implement dual NICs, and for the Dell it should be no problem finding a

First, I'm trying to following along on a document on "SecurityFocus" on "Securing MySQL: step-by-step". I'm on step 3.8 "Test the configuration". I have my CHROOT directory structure setup and the chrootuid is failing (haven't figured that one out, yet). So, I simply tried a 'chroot /chroot/mysql' and got: chroot: cannot run command

Hi All, I have a CentOS 5.4 web server. I have some stuff that runs on 443. When I hit https://<the site> The user gets a warning saying that site identity could not be verified and the user can add an exception if they want. How do I stop this from happing? Do I need to buy an SSL cert? Aren't these really expensive per server and I have 5 servers I would need to do this too. Can

Hello: Is there a command in virsh to shutdown all domains? I can do one at a time, but that is untenable for a large number of domains.

My 12 year old wants to learn more about servers and has memorized a lot of commands like ls, chmod, du, etc. He wants to have his own domain and server on the web and I have enough Static IP's, so why not foster this interest. I have an old ultra sparc 5. Are there any CentOS versions that support Sparc? Or recommendations? I know OpenBSD does, but I am more versed in Solaris and versions

Hello all: I am looking at the documentation of the new firewalld service in CentOS 7. It looks like no matter what I configure with it, outgoing connections are still going to be allowed. That does not seem very secure. I always set my servers to default policy of DROP for everything incoming and outgoing and then add rules to allow very specific traffic through. Is this possible using the

I want to set up a cluster that is used for web hosting (RHCS cluster). Recently, I experimented with a 2 node cluster and was able to run it successfully. However, I have started facing some issues with Apache, which I had configured as a service using the Cluster configuration tool. To do this Apache needs a floating IP address. This address is in addition to the network interface IP address.

Hello all: I did a fresh install of CentOS 7 on a new machine. I wrote /usr/local/bin/firewall.stop to remove all the firewall rules. It contains this code: # Flush the rules /usr/sbin/iptables -F # Set the default policies to accept /usr/sbin/iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT /usr/sbin/iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT /usr/sbin/iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT I wrote /usr/local/bin/firewall.start to set the

I have had great luck with nvidia fakeraid on RAID1, but I see there are preferences for software raid. I have very little hands on with full Linux software RAID and that was about 14 years ago. I am trying to determine which to use on a rebuild in a "standard" CentOS/Xen enviroment. It seems to me that while FakeRaid is/can be completely taken care of in dom0 dmraid whereas with

Howdy, I tend to try out many open source apps/packages - games, editors to media tools. I have a bad habit of downloading and extracting source in the /var/tmp directory and then doing configure-make-install process. I am not sure of best practice (good practices) to be followed when installing any software. For example how and where to keep the src. Any comments and/or resources would be really

Hello: I am wondering if KVM is ready for production for running a Windows Server 2003 32 bit guest. According to the RHEL 5.4 virtualization guide, there is supposed to be a virtio-win yum package, but that was not released. Instead, it looks like that is only available for RHN subscribers. Also, I saw this posting on the CentOS list: --- Quoted from CL Martinez There are freely
