Good day -- I am having a go at installing VMware on my centos 4.2 machine. I am going through the configuration script and I am getting to the part where I need the c headers for my kernel. What package do I need to install to make these available, and where are they installed to? I have been searching for this with little luck. Thanks in advance. Dustin

Hi there. I was wondering if anyone had a link to a good tutorial (or docs) in regards to setting up a push install of printers (HP 4200N) from a samba server (CentOS 4) to a mixed windows (98,2k,xp) enviorment. Now I have been investigating using a BAT file in a logon script, but the results seem to be unpredictable (maybe i am usign them wrong?). Then permissions on the target machine seem to be

Hi there --- for some reason I am getting really weird keyboard behavior on the CLI (no xfs or anything running). Centos 4.4 yummed up. For example if i type "root" to login, I get "rot" or sometimes "roooooot". Then other times I will have to press a key like 3 times to get a double character. Now at first I thought maybe it was the keyboard, but it seems to

Good day everyone - This maybe somewhat OT, but I was wondering if anyone can recommend a good tool for cloning *nix drives. The one thing though is that I will be cloning a smaller drive than the destination drive and would like to distribute the free space accordingly on the new drive. Can anyone recommend anything? Thanks in advance. :::::::::::::::::::::: Dustin

Hi there - I know this is borderline "ot" - but I was wondering if anbyone could recommend a good helpdesk/ticketing system for use on centos 4.x. Thanks! -- dnk

Can anyone recommend a ssh bookmark manager for centos? Thanks! d

Can anyone recommend an opensource package (preferably something centos 4X compatible) that can be used on a (iptables) firewall to block virus/trojan, etc? And maybe something for intrusion detection? Thanks! Dnk

On a previous thread I was working on a custom install disk that would boot directly into a vnc install - well I have the disk working exactly as I need it EXCEPT for 1 thing... the option to do a media check pops up... however as per my original email - there will be no keyboard/mouse/monitor attached during install... so I can not press the "skip" option. Now to get the VNC install to

This is completely OFF TOPIC from centos and slightly vague, so please reply to me direct. I just want to pick everyone's brains here for their experience with high availability remote management (servers, networks, etc). Can anyone recommend any good high availability remote managerment tools. I mean something more than ssh, nagios, etc. Anything from appliances to monitoring, remote access,

Hi there -- i am just looking for clarification on the yum "group install" option.... How can you tell what are valid groups? IE I found the below example on google: yum groupinstall "MySQL Database" I have heard references to doing things like: yum groupinstall "Development Tools" But to the point - is there a list of valid groups for install? ----------

Are there any known issues with using bacula with centos 4.2? How about a recipe of some kind? Thanks in advance! dnk

Good day everyone..... I have an install of centos 4.0 patched to 4.2 as my base install. I then installed VMWare 3.2 (gx) over top. I was then going through the install of centos 4.2 (non-patched - latest ISO's) into a virtual machine. Now here is where the issue happens.... on the install, the file "xorg-x11" causes a typical "file can not be access/ file not

Hi there - I was wondering - is there a way to add a group to be a member of another group. I am setting up a samba server and the client site has a need for many different permissions on many subfolders -- so this seems to be the logical way. Thanks in advance! d

Hi there, i have a samba PDC with a mix of w2l and XP clients connecting. FOr some reason the network logon scripts will not execute. I have made sure they are dos format, and the permissions are correct..... yet I can;t get it to work! Here is my samba.conf: [global] workgroup = IHPR server string = Samba Server log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 50

Good day..... This is a slightly older issue for me. In the past I had tried to install Samba on a centos 4.0 box, and the useradd tool on Centos 4 would not add the "$" character to the usernames being created. This showed up whenever a domain trust was trying to be established for a computer that was logging into the samba share for the first time. Maybe I messed something

Hi all.... I had posted hte following on teh centos forums, and thought there might be additional people in here who do not browse those forum, so after 4 days I am posting over here as well (sorry for the double - but figured after 4 days it was safe to do so). Hi there.... I am trying to make a custom centos server cd that will essentially do the following: throw the disk in, boot the machine,
