Has anyone yet tried PXE booting the vmlinuz/initrd.img set from Centos 4.0beta2? I have a pxelinux setup that is booting 3.4 PXE images fine, but the equivalent setup for 4.0beta loads the kernel and then splashes the monitor full of multicolor random characters. Not a good start to an install... Anyone had luck? Any changes for PXE boots known for 4.0? Thanks in advance. -Alan

.... puppetmaster did not crash, but the resulting file on the client was badly truncated. Are there known problems either with Puppet 0.22.3 on templating, or on Ruby 1.8.1 as shipped by Red Hat (actually Centos)?

...ork, maybe because of scoping issues. What is the correct way of approaching the task of "inheriting" a set of shared configuration information across a set of nodes?

I have the problem when my localnetwork do telnet to the net Shorewall:FORWARD:REJECT:IN=eth0 OUT=eth2 my files are the following: policy #SOURCE DEST POLICY LOG LEVEL LIMIT:BURST loc net CONTINUE info loc fw ACCEPT info loc loc ACCEPT loc dmz ACCEPT info fw

...t looks like you have three zones based upon your interfaces file and they are not nested or overlapped......so you should probably change the policy to loc->net ACCEPT and this will allow you to telnet out to the net.

Puppet 0.24.8... I am trying to use ssh_authorized_key to create passwordless logins for a couple of accounts. The important thing to note is I''m trying to get the source ("root@somehost" below) as part of the key, and the same key needs to be added to two different accounts on the system. It appears that the resource name is the only place I can set the originating source

Since December there have been several kernel updates to the centosplus repository for centos4... but no updates to kmod-xfs or kmod-drbd82. Latest kernel is 2.6.9-78.0.13.plus.c4, but latest kmod-xfs is 2.6.9_78.0.5.plus.c4. Latest drbd82 kmod is also for 78.0.5. I know there was a mention on the list that these modules are not kernel dependent anymore... but yum and rpm seem to indicate

Is there a way to default "top" to Solaris mode for all users (without using a .toprc in every user's home dir)? We're not big fans of >100% CPU usage stats... Thanks. -- Alan Sparks, UNIX/Linux Systems Integration and Administration <asparks at doublesparks.net>

Hi folks, I thought I saw a comment on this list a ways back about a firefox plugin that would make a browser automatically cycle through the tabs it had loaded. We'd like to use this to load some monitoring systems in tabs, and then have the browser cycle through them so we have a poor-man's status display station. Does anyone know more specifics about this plugin I think I heard

Hi, I literally have about 36 machines running CentOS on a private network, and will probably change the remaining 30 or so away from Whitebox or RH in the near term. One thing I just noticed was when I tried to search out Tripwire RPM's, that none seemed evident. Can anyone point me in the direction of an Tripwire RPM that works with CentOS 4.3, or advise me on how to create one from the
