similar to: finding configure prefixes for RPMs?

I'm on a fairly old RHEL box, when I "cat /proc/version", I get the following: Linux version 2.4.21-4.ELsmp (bhcompile at daffy.perf.redhat.com) (gcc version 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-20)) At this stage, I guess I don't have 'yum', so where exactly do I get the individual RPMs? I went to DAG to find some stuff I needed, but some of the rpms at

On CentOS 4.5, I'm trying to upgrade MySQL 4 to MySQL 5.

Someone told me that if you have a CentOS or Fedora server, you can pay a Red Hat yearly fee and get them to support it (because the environments are so similar). Can anyone here substantiate this claim? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The free DHCP solution, ISC, seems to be having scaling issues (i.e. handling only about 200 DHCPDISCOVER and 20 DHCPRENEW requests), and I was wondering if anyone had any open source suggestions of solutions that could scale much better? (Ideally, I could find a free version of a solution like Nominum, but I know that's asking for much.) Anyone have any suggestions? -- Also on LinkedIn??

I'm installing Fruity for Nagios using the 4.4 Single Server CD and want to force upgrade PHP 4 to PHP 5 without having to upgrade everything on CentOSplus. In order to install Nagios, I have to first enable RPMforge. However, to use Fruity, I have to use PHP 5, which isn't included in the RPMforge repository, unless I enable CentOSplus and yum update/upgrade everything (which I did

I recently had a problem with the configure script from perfparse running properly so that I could 'make install' it to work with Nagios 2.10 on latest CentOS 4.x + RPMForge (see http://readlist.com/lists/centos.org/centos/5/28966.html). Thinking it was a problem that was a result of "yum remove gd", I formatted the box and reinstalled everything. Now, oddly, I still have the

Hi, In the advent of RHEL5 and CentOS 5, I've been rebuilding the RPMforge packages for EL5. You can find these at the usual location[*]. A few points though: + Not all RPMforge packages are available at this time + If you find a package that you need and isn't there, please do look at the buildlogs and send me instructions on how to fix this specific build. (Saves us time

I'm looking for an open source router solution, and someone from the list recently recommended zebra (www.zebra.org). I haven't yet identified all my needs, but I'm guessing that it will do all my routing needs for a, say, class C set of IP addresses, particularly if I ever have to do anything BGP-related. Anyone have any pointers before I delve in? Or possibly a recommendation for

Something happened over the weekend power-related on my VMware test server, and when I came back and restarted my VMware server box (running CentOS), I got the following message: "VMware Server is installed, but it has not been (correctly) configured for the running kernel.

I am not sure how to modify the config.h script for my CentOS 4.5 box (running Nagios + NDOutils).

I am looking to create an internal yum repository on my LAN in order to save on having to constantly go to the internet to download new packages. Where might I look (or what might I search for) to get going in the right direction? (I googled, but I cannot seem to find a good answer. I'm guessing that I'll just need to sync the main RHEL repo, as well as the RPMForge one?) --------------

I followed the Wiki instructions for setting up *yum-priorities*. I added the rpmforge repo I installed clamd without a problem. Now when I go to update I get conflicts with perl-Math-BigInt. Is the only solution to uninstall the base version and then install the rpmforge version? According the the wiki "Packages from repositories with a lower priority will never be used to upgrade
