Hello everyone, Let say 5.4 goes out today; If I fully update (today) my 5.2 system...will it be equivalent to 5.4 (all RPM packages with same version/release number?)?

Hello guys, Did anyone noticed how green CentOS 6 is compared to the previous release? I've been running a couple of "CentOS 6" VMs (on our vSphere environment) for the last couple of weeks and noticed a BIG difference when it comes to CPU usage when the VM is completely idle. I would like to share what I've seen in our environment: PfSense 2.0 (FreeBSD) VM: 40 Mhz CentOS

This is the output of: semanage -l port | grep ssh ssh_port_t tcp

Hello everyone, I'm doing some tests with ACL's and even though I can create a "default" ACL for a directory (that includes "rwx" for the default owner), when I finally create a file wihin that directory the execute bit is chopped off: [joe at machine ~]$ mkdir mydir [joe at machine ~]$ setfacl -d -m u::rwx,g::-,o::- mydir/ [joe at machine ~]$ cd mydir [joe at

Hello guys, I have a couple of servers that I'm about to virtualize to our VMware Vsphere ecosystem. For Linux servers I read that one needs to use the stand-alone converter (which is a live-cd that you boot from it and then you point it to your destination ESX). I would like to know from folks that have already done so...what was your experience like? Did everything went smooth? Any

Hi all, After the latest security update for bind (which came out last night), now there's a new message on syslog, (facility: daemon, severity: warning) every time you restart named: max open files (1024) is smaller than max sockets (4096) After googling for a while the solution seems to be to add this to /etc/security/limits.conf: named soft nofile 4096 ...and mofity
