It seems there are a number of Centos users in the Cologne/Bonn/Aachen area of Germany. If there is not one already (and please let me know if there is!) I'd like to start a Linux User Group (including Centos) for this area. I'm way down in Blankenheim, though. Would someone like to volunteer a location? I envision alternating meetings between the three cities if possible... just to make it fair for everyone who has to travel. I'll even propose Friday August 14th for our first meeting. Any interest? -geoff ---------------------...

Hallo, today I had a surprising situation. Exim stopped. It's a German centos 5.3 64 Bit installation so the messages are partial in German. Then I tried a restart: [root at centos ~]# service exim restart exim beenden: [FEHLGESCHLAGEN] exim starten: /bin/bash: line 1: 6596 Die maximale Dateigr??e ist ?berschritten

Hello, is there a security issue on CentOS 5.3 with openssh 4.3? I ask that cause of http://www.h-online.com/security/Rumours-of-critical-vulnerability-in-OpenSSH-in-Red-Hat-Enterprise-Linux--/news/113712 and http://secer.org/hacktools/0day-openssh-remote-exploit.html. Should ssh login from internet on CentOS better be disabled? regards Olaf

Have folks been using Cmake on Centos5 without issues?

Greetings, Is there a centos repo with mysql workbench anywhere. In the same vein, is there a publicly available build system for centos where people can submit the source tar.gz and get hotly baked rpm and the icing would be with some way to resolve dependencies?? It would be great to have one.. Regards and thanks, Rajagopal

Hi, is there a way / software to find out which security patches my different CentOS systems are missing? Maybe with the according CESA announcement displayed? TIA, Frank.

Hello Everyone, I have been tasked at work with setting up a VPN connection from our server to a client's network. The only problem is that I have never done anything like this before, so I am not sure where to start. We are running CentOS 5.4 on our server. I do not yet know what the client is running for their VPN, the only thing I know of from the client, is we need to use IPSec for our

What is an alternative X window manager, supported by CentOS, that has very small memory footprint? I want to avoid twm, because it defaults to interactive placement when not giving geometry options.

Hi, I'm currently writing an install script for an application, and my already limited Bash skills are a bit rusty. I want to check if a group exists, and if it doesn't, then create it. Only thing I found is: if [ grep medintux /etc/group ]; then continue else groupadd medintux fi Apparently I can't seem to "negate" the test, e. g. something like if !(grep medintux

All, For a production environment, I'd like to setup CentOS XEN guests as lightweight as possible. I'd like the XEN guests to be able to send nightly email as all CentOS servers do, but there is no reason to run a mail server as the CentOS Dom0 already has an email server running that can act as an email smart host. The options that seem most appealing to me are either ssmtp or sendmail

Hey folks, I stumbled upon this while looking for something else http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/151340 And it is something I could actually really make use of. But right on that site they list 3 different ones, and so I'm wondering what all is out there and what I should use. Is there one that is part of the standard CentOS? thanks, -Alan -- ?Don't eat anything you've
