..., things are again wrong, until I fix it up again. But then the VNC session(s) are wrong. My question is this - surely there's a way to tell gconf/gnome that my dpi setting is for DISPLAY X. Please tell me it's not just a global setting for all displays!! Thanks Bob -- Bob Hepple <bhepple at promptu.com> ph: 07-5584-5908 Fx: 07-5575-9550

I have a server where /home is on a nfs. I installed an apache (my compile) server. By default, it runs as daemon. That user can't acces files in /home/*/public_html, while the nobody user can. So if I change my apache config, it now can. /home is : drwxr-xr-x /home/user is : drwxr-xr-x /home/user/public_html is : drwxr-xr-x selinux is disabled. In the error log of apache I get :

Hi all, Been using Cacti for monitoring various things like, system disk/mem/ proc, network usage, router usage etc... While its been fun, the graphs are just unruly. Was looking an OpsView (the free version), wondering what your experience with this type of trend/heuristic analysis has been and what what you like. And of course thoughts on OpsView. - aurf

Hi all, I'm looking for pointer for setting up VNC so that access to the system is via gdm/kdm. Yes, I know about vino, and /etc/sysconfig/vncservers but what I'm looking for is a sertup that allows me to see the *dm login screen instead of being dropped direct into a desktop. Thanks in advance

Hi Is there any ETA for the SRPM's from the base tree of 5.6? I need to get my hands on the src for the centos-release package as i have to rebuilt it to prevent the repo definitions from being included. I see the src's for the updates RPM's but not the base. many thanks

...the fact that smartctl doesn't seem to report any errors. I tried a short and a long test but nothing in there seems to be alarming - in fact it says PASSED!! - but the output is pretty opaque and maybe I've been foxed by ambiguity. Anyone care to comment on it? Here it is: [root at nina bhepple]# smartctl /dev/sdc -a smartctl 5.43 2012-06-30 r3573 [i686-linux-2.6.32-358.23.2.el6.i686] (local build) Copyright (C) 2002-12 by Bruce Allen, http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net === START OF INFORMATION SECTION === Model Family: Western Digital Caviar Green Device Model: WDC WD10EAVS-0...

I'm a Thunderbird user almost since day one, but now I'm looking for something else. For whatever reason, it doesn't work well for me - every once in a while it becomes non-responsive (UI completely frozen for several seconds, CPU usage goes to 100%) and I just can't afford to waste time waiting for the email software to start working again. My main desktop platform is Linux,

What do you guys recommend for backing up a small CentOS server in a business environment. It will have (3) 300gb drives in a raid 5 array but I don't anticipate more than about 25gb of data that needs to be backed up each night. I want a lot of backups with a rotation scheme that included daily, weekly, and monthly copies. I want the daily copies of the data kept until the next week, and

Currently I have VNC running on my Windows desktop with Samba providing access to my Linux server. Since Linux is more reliable than Windows, I would like to be able to access my Linux (Centos 5.5) via my Windows notebook - hopefully via VNC or some similar application and then access the Windows desktop (if it is not locked up :-) ) with Samba. What is the best VNC like application to
