I'm on RHEL 6.6, R version 3.2.1 Patched (2015-07-30 r68761) -- "World-Famous Astronaut". Issuing the x11() command hangs R and does not complete. A window is partially drawn then freezes.

We found an older version of x11 and this worked for us: yum downgrade xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.15.0-36.el6.x86_64 xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.15.0-26.el6_6.x86_64.rpm Steve -- Steven J.

How about adding a --no-detach option (to be used in combination with --daemon) to rsync so it can be run under Dan Bernstein's daemontools' supervise?

...a way to specify on a per-object basis that Puppet should merely report that an object needs to be updated without actually performing the update? This would make it possible to detect changes to critical objects (e.g. config files) that Puppet shouldn''t try to fix automaticaly. -- Jos Backus jos at catnook.com

Dear R users I have compiled R from source in local user account (at non default location). R seems to be working fine but issuing plot() command opens a window (supposedly graph, but nothing is visible) and then R terminal also freezes. Any suggestions?

...and bonding at work so we have interface names like `eth0'', `bond0'' and `bond0.401''. Is the best practice to create facts such as `mac_address[bond0.401]''? These facts would allow us to verify that a given machine has the proper interface configuration. -- Jos Backus jos at catnook.com

Hi, I was wondering if there is any of getting the gem package provider to run non-interactively? When upgrading mongrel it fails because it gets prompted for which version to install: Attempting remote update of mongrel Select which gem to install for your platform (x86_64-linux) 1. mongrel 1.1.1 (ruby) 2. mongrel 1.1.1 (jruby) 3. mongrel 1.1.1 (mswin32) 4. mongrel 1.1 (mswin32) 5.

...script to copy files with known filenames from a remote server (running sshd), without allowing (interactive) ssh access to that server?

Does this version implement the ability to be run under Dan Bernstein's supervise/multilog utilities? I.e. can sshd be told not to daemonize and log all messages to stdout/stderr instead of syslog?

[Apologies if this is an off-topic question; please direct me to a more appropriate place if so.] Using Kerberos/GSSAPIAuthentication, is there a way to centrally control/manage (perhaps using LDAP?) which user principals can log into what hosts/accounts? -- Jos Backus jos at catnook.com

Hi all; I am sure this question has been brought up before, but I could not find any information in the FAQ or docs etc. Quick question; Is there a way of syncing multiple servers simultaneously from 1 source server? Thanks, -- Vaibhav Goel extension 6347

For anyone that has experienced the odd End of file or Cannot describe errors, we''ve found that switching to Mongrel has fixed this problem for us. We''re currently running 5 instance of puppetmaster under mongrel (with the apache proxy in front) and things are going great. For more information on setting up Mongrel, visit:

Hi, I tried to compile rsync2.5.3 on Solaris5.7, and I still got the same errors as Solaris5.8, can you please help me to look at the problem? I got error messages: Configure was run successfully, then I ran make, I got: "batch.c", line 408: operands have incompatible types: pointer to unsigned long ":" pointer to unsigned int cc: acomp failed for batch.c ***

Hi all, Not sure if this is a bug in puppet, yum, or just something I''m doing wrong. I''m trying to use puppet to update a package to a particular version and exec a command when that update is applied. The problem is, puppet calls yum which successfully updates the package, but puppet then thinks the update has failed and hence doesn''t trigger the exec. Next
